"That's certainly true." Julian agreed. "People who can drop that much money on seeing a relic are likely to attract attention, and attention is the last thing we're looking for.." He'd been hoping for a cheaper relic, one that more people would be going in to see and they'd have a chance of getting lost in the throng. "Well, this isn't exactly my home turf, so if you have your own ideas on how we get into the temple archives, if that's what you want to go for, I'm willing to concede you the floor on coming up with how we do it."

Julian could easily pay the eighty for the two of them - especially in light of how much the statue could be worth - but not only did he not want to part with money if he didn't want to, it really wasn't necessarily the best way to go, given the fact that they probably wouldn't have a throng they could hide within.
