"400 Bits for a day tour?  I see they upcharge here too.  Things in the galaxy never change, even in over regulated environments like this one.  Given the priority is to find someone who knows the Mogul, 400 is a bit much." Borulama.  How the hell could this human think it has the quality of service to charge that much for its own personal tour guide services?  Who does it think it is a gold member?  Come to think of it, where is its seal of quality?  Why does it not have its brand with it?  Frixion's tour companies must not be competent with their quality control or some such.  Maybe worse, this is an employee from some state service!  Maybe that explains the ridiculous fee, it's a glorified tax.  The Fed is like that.

Maybe not.

For this is less some employee of a company or worse, some monopoly service and more like how the homeless on Saukila in a bad economic time when they start selling their bodies for way more than they are worth.  That was at least selling something it knew for certain it would get.  That peculiar pricing just comes off as ...  weird to it.  Still, finding the Mogul is of importance for both the deal and well, the auditor things it now is expected to do alongside this venture.  This is both in so many respects.  Both a way to spread the soft power of the Network and get new customers for its own company.  Yes, that is all this is about.  So Borulama decides to give an alternative offer to the orange haired person, perhaps the hair color makes it a bit more trustworthy seeming than it should be.  For Borulama has a orange head too.  Color transcends species.  

So with a bit of sympathy, Borulama gestures one of its tongue filled hands towards the human and gives its own terms and to some extent, to keep this human around longer. 

"Since we aren't doing a day tour, how about this instead, 50 bits for initiation fee.  Find someone good to help, 150 more bits.  Stick around and help find the Mogul, 500 bits extra once we get to the Mogul.  I give you options here."
