"There are papers for everything," Demelza agrees. "Except money. Money is all stored in my little cards now." Which isn't entirely the truth, she knows she can still possess physical notes if she truly desires it, but many have warned her against it, pointing to thieves, and so she must admit that the cards certainly are better for money in that regard.
That's been the most difficult adjustment for her, she's found, even more difficult than vehicles or the flats in which they live now. There are times when she still feels as if everything costs far too much and yet, at the same time, as if she must be endlessly wealthy, for she's never seen such a high number when it comes to currency in her entire life. Even Ross, who had been considered terribly wealthy at a time, had never had such a sum.
It pleases her to think that George Warleggan probably had not either.
"But it isn't too terribly difficult to decipher," she says. "Even I managed and I sometimes still struggle with my letters. A friend of mine helped a little, but I imagine if I can do it, you'll have no problem at all."
