Tag-Pt 1: Einey Meany Miney Moe
Ledo considered the price and began tapping things to pull up his account information. He left his contact information with the Sunsuit bots and he and Tepha went off to the side to discuss things.
"300,000 is a lot..."
"You don't think he isn't worth it?"
"Of course not. The ship doesn't have any kind of contigency fund, it is just me. If we do this that wipes us out and puts us on the razor's edge."
"Aren't we about to collect a lot of paychecks from the people and cargo we are transporting?"
"...which needs to be used to get the next piece."
Tepha reached out and gently held onto his arm, using the physical touch to get his attention.
"And if we get stuck some place we will find some way to keep going. Think of how much he has saved us. How isolated he must feel being trapped in the wiring while we get to walk around and talk to people."
"What if we all pitch in? Split the cost."
Tepha gave a sigh.
"I don't have much share in the profits so I don't even know if I could afford it..."
Ledo paused and pulled out his comm's calculator and ran some quick numbers.
"What if we divide the cost by the charter? 60% to me, 20% to Rig and so on... let's see..."
He continued typing out the numbers and showed Tepha the result.
Ledo: 195,000
Rig: 60,000
Silver: 30,000
Tepha: 15,0000
