Ush, I remember that I asked you about it, and you confirmed, that communicators similar to mobile phones are in common use in our galaxy, far away.
Gallador pretends that he has a call and goes away for few minutes.
"I have talked to my boss, and he is willing to meet you, to further discuss our deal. He is currently on this world." -Gallador speaks to the leader as he returns.
*falls and dies*
what are you doing?!
our boss is supposed to be someone of extreme influence and power. the MYSTERY around him generates that. what will you do if you meet him? we don't have any money....we're supposed to work around showing any money!..now that he sees you...he'll only try to convince you to pay up front.
and why on earth would a man, such as we want our boss to seem like, be doing on a planet like this....when he already sent us to negotiate 😬
we could have said we're the bosses from the start while we're at it......same result 😬...some fancy clothes won't change much. all we had to do is explore that little inconvenience he revealed....for which i will be reading back in the next few minutes. damn...
oh..and happy b-day dominatrix.

Well, he agrees, but one of his comrades doesn't."Don't be an idiot," he says. "We don't show our hand for no return. You know, you guys don't LOOK rich. I think this whole thing is a bum deal."

With a group, it happens even with you, Takuan!"Granted," says the leader. "But put yourselves in our shoes. Passing you onto one of our contacts is a security risk. We can't do that based on thin air. You gotta give us SOMETHING to work with, either solid or a re-assurance you can back."
Something to think about there...
I thought they wanted some sort of proof that your organisation has the money to pay for it. Tanic wouldn't have to even be the leader, just another contact. But meh, what do you suggest, Dexx?
You can't prove you have the money, frankly, and you are beyond persuading them you don't need it, 'cos it hasn't gone that well.
Like I say, they don't want to see cash up front just for talking to you; what is the point at which they need the money? And why? And so what could you do to get around that?
