When you go to Bazaar's General Store and buy a shell, you have the option to ask him about the castle in the distance. He'll tell you about it for 2 coins, but if you decline he'll tell you something much more interesting:

Are you sure? Some cheeky lad called Link was in just last week and he asked about the castle too. He didn't have enough coins, but he seemed such a nice fellow that I agreed to accept 500 rupees instead. After that he left... muttering about my shells being the wrong shape or something. Oh well!

This is a reference to The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening in which sea shells were collectible items.
