sorry, but i think the math's not mathing, or maybe i just don't get it?

from my understanding :
sunshoan shikishi cost 5000 for 32 sheets = 156 yen/sheets
honami gire = 1700 yen/sheets
koya/hari-gire = 1000 yen/sheets
tale of genji's cost 27000 for 100 sheets = 270 yen/sheets

so the genji one that's supposed to be the most expensive is the 2nd cheapest?
or is it not [the tale of genji's(paper)] 100 sheets, but [the tale of genji's 100 sheets]? as in, the "100 sheets" is included in the name, and not the indicator for amount?

I think the prices are per sheet, with the number of sheets granny mentions being the amount they need for the work they're reproducing.

So to write Sunshoan shikishi, Hino-chan will need 32 sheets at 5000¥/p, so 160 000¥ in total.
Oe-kun would need 100 pieces of 27 000¥ paper to write his Tale of Genji, for a whopping total of 2.7 million¥.

that's not the level where you can give willy nilly(unless Oe household is rich). 2.7 mil is more than yearly minimum wage(2.55 mil according to chatgpt)

so while your theory could be true, i don't think it is. not to mention Oe won't write the whole book. just 1 page i think. 100 sheets are overkill.

They are only doing a single page.
