"I have to agree with my charming friend here, we can help you but the price you set is very low. Make it 150 pieces for each of us and we can start immediately." says Belsar with a strong and firm tone of voice. (OCC I will intimidate him) Intimidation 23
"Really?" Leslynn says, "you're trying to intimidate this poor guy now. Why don't you just leave him alone and take the, rather generous considering he doesn't even know who we are, offer we've already been given and stop complaining."
"Bah, I'm just trying to get us a better deal for all of us. You are right, he doesn't know us, but he is the one that is asking for our help. My sword and magic are not a cheap tool to give freely. This guys is offering 50 pieces of gold to us as a group of 4. That's 12 pieces and half of gold for a mission that can be very dangerous."
Yorayis stared at her companions as they bickered and argued, her plan to negotiate was probably ruined but she had to attempt to salvage the situation. "Both of you go outside if you going to argue. You are ruining the moment." Waving them out the door before looking at the merchant again. "My friends as you can see make bargaining almost impossible, so forgive them for that. As I was saying, 50 gp is too low but 150 is also too high of a request. So how about 75 gp and a discount on future purchases? If we succeed, we can say how you boldly hired us for the good of everyone at risk to your profit and yourself. How about it?"
"You are both right" says Belsar to his female companions, "I'm sorry if I have startled you Sir, it seems that old habits die hard." Belsar exits the shop, "I'll wait outside."
"See? We reached a excellent bargain didn't we? Such a smooth and skillful merchant deceived even me! I am so happy to have such effective and talented companions. We have a job, but we should go to the inn to gather information." Voice going serious and not playful, "And talk about what has just happened." The tone vanishing as she skips outside, "Let's go get some rooms. We should only need two, ladies in one, gentlemen in the other. Sound good?"
Leslynn doesn't say anything, just crosses her arms and follows the party outside. She gives the man in charge an "I'm sorry about all of that." look before leaving.
So you guys are at the Beach Hut Inn, a small but quaint inn at the dockside of the market. The inn is buzzing with people whispering and talking. The inn keeper Murial is at the bar she exclaims " Well I do wish someone would help us out with that" She then sees you all and quickly shouts " Ahh hello there dearies, you look weary to the bone. Welcome to the Beach Hut Inn, what can I do ya for?
"Oh my! By the stars and moon in the heavens, look at you! Such a striking women, how blessed I am to see you. If you are married, I demand to duel him for you." Yorayis winks and chuckles at her own silliness and leans on the bar, "Hi sweetie, could I borrow a room for a bit? My companions and I need to discuss a few things. We may need two rooms for the night, we need to talk about what to do now that we have reached this lovely place." Dramatically leans back a,hand on her head, and acts woeful. "Oh, how I wish we poor wandering adventurers could find some more work that may give us coin and the favor of our new community and neighbors. My dear sweet lady, maybe you can help us? Such a gorgeous women with a tavern full of such handsome gentlemen might know someone who needs help?"
Belsar thanks the Innkeeper for the room, and while entering the room says to Yorayis "You really have a way with people, at least better than me I think. You should be our face in the following endevors."
Leslynn paces the perimeter of the room, hands in her pockets as she inspects everything. "I don't know if you haven't noticed, but the likelyhood of just us being able to dismantle a smuggling ring is very slim."

"There is a thing called negotiation have you heard of it? Intimidation is never good right off the bat. It just makes people mad at you."

"I'm negotiating."

Klevin glares at all of you " Fine! 150 gp for each of in the state that the artifact is brought un-tampered with."

The tone vanishing as she skips outside, "Let's go get some rooms. We should only need two, ladies in one, gentlemen in the other. Sound good?"
"Glad that we reached an agreement, time to start working then." replies Belsar. "No problem with your room arrangements".
Leslynn doesn't say anything, just crosses her arms and follows the party outside. She gives the man in charge an "I'm sorry about all of that." look before leaving.

She is willing to offer you guys one room
Belsar thanks the Innkeeper for the room, and while entering the room says to Yorayis "You really have a way with people, at least better than me I think. You should be our face in the following endevors."
You enter a pretty basic room no more than 400 sq ft. The room smells dank and old but much like the sea. What are you guys doing here?
Belsar finds a corner in the room, puts his back to one of the walls and says "So how do you plan to dismantle this smuggler ring?"
Leslynn paces the perimeter of the room, hands in her pockets as she inspects everything. "I don't know if you haven't noticed, but the likelyhood of just us being able to dismantle a smuggling ring is very slim."
