ANTOSSA: This orbit will be fine for selling service and repair to the scavengers.
MURTUAGH: Steady work is good. There's an old Earth aphorism: "Don't dig for gold. Sell shovels."
ANTOSSA: Your cut of "shovel sales" won't be very large.
MURTAUGH: Large enough to remind you of your crimes, and small enough that you won't be tempted to revolt.
PETEY: Hello. Am I interrupting?
MURTAUGH: Always.
What do you need?
PETEY: I wish to buy a piece of the City of Beskin-Sashik.
MURTAUGH: I own it, but I promised not to cut it into pieces.
PETEY: This piece is already detached. You see, per the laws of the Penipotent Dominion, the City of Beskin-Sashik includes the world they discovered, Uli-Oa.
Those laws say that Uli-Oa now belongs to you.
I should buy it before smashing it into scrap, and giving it away.
MURTAUGH: What's the going rate for priceless, planet-sized artifacts?
PETEY: A Plenipotent Dominion coupon book.
There are some really good deals in there. Worth two planets, easy.
