Did the content creator pay for the entire stock of pens?

Impressed by the woman’s smile and positive behaviour, he noticed that she still had many pens left. He started counting all the pens and estimated that the entire stock would cost around Rs 900, but when he checked his pocket, he only had Rs 550 left.
