GOOD MORNING ZION

[It's about 8:00 in the evening; the vast majority of shops closed and dinners eaten.]

I HAVE A HOVERSHIP AND NO ONE TO CREW IT

WORK FOR ME. RESEARCH AND CIVILIAN/MILITARY CONTRACTS. IT'S BETTER THAN WORKING FOR THE ZDG FULL-TIME BY AN IMMEASURABLY HUGE PERCENTAGE. I KNOW, I COULD SET THE BAR HIGHER, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT

ETA 1 WEEK TO COMPLETE REPAIR/RETROFIT. NO AUTOMATED RETRACTING STRIPPER POLES THIS TIME (MORE OF A PROMISE THAN A REGRET)

FIRST PAY INSTALLMENT IS A % OFF THE TOP OF A TRANSPORT RUN

IT'S NOT THAT SEXY BUT WHO AM I KIDDING, WHAT IS SEXIER THAN RIDICULOUS EXCESS PROPORTIONATE TO THE CONTEXT OF LOCAL CULTURE

I can think of plenty of things, but I may have spent my entire second captain's paycheck on the best coffee "money" can buy around here so I'm not really in a position to argue.

How ridiculously excessive are we talking, here? I could stand to live on slurry for a couple extra weeks to save up for good wine.

WELL YOU KNOW BARTER

YOU GOT SOMETHING KIND OF SMALL AND WEIRD-SMELLING THAT YOU DON'T REALLY WANT AND SOME DUDE WHO CAME FROM THE LAND BEFORE ORCISH THINKS YOU HIT THE MOTHERLOAD

NOT TOO PREDICTABLE A CURRENCY/EXCHANGE RATE

BUT I HEARD IT WAS 4 LOAVES OF BREAD FOR A BOTTLE OF THE SWEET STUFF, 5 FOR THE OTHER

AND SOME CHICK SOLD LIKE 2 FEET OF HAIR (THE HEAD KIND) FOR A WHOLE CRATE

HOW MUCH HAIR HAVE YOU GROWN OUT?
