Good I have her attention now I need to not piss her off! "there's a village about three days from here that has been taken over by pirates, big deal nobody cares about one little fishing village right? Well this village happens to be of importance to a particularly rich man, why I don't know but he's willing to paypay well to clear them out. I'm willing to do a seventy thirty split." John said somewhat cautiously. He knew she'd refuse the offer and probably demand 50/50 but his was the standard starting offer.
