Answer:
The literal meaning of 'a potful' is 'the amount that a pot can contain'. But here, 'a potful of wisdom' means 'large quantity of wisdom', as the boy was selling wisdom. Actually, it should mean vast wisdom, since the wisdom is not a matter that can be counted or physically measured by any unit.
