Epsilon removed five more blank vouchers and held them up. "These are for you when the task is done. They are cleared to draw a maximum of fifty thousand shecks each at the Precinct Four Treasury. Use them in this manner, King Ipani will see that it is so: Use one to refurbish your home on the palace grounds. Use another to buy household goods and wares and clothing for your family. Use the third to purchase a private stock of raw materials for your smithery, which materials will be available for work other than your royal labors. The fourth will buy your tools, including fuel and forges. The fifth is for cash. These funds are yours beyond whatever fees you and the royal army should haggle between you. I trust the king will be most forthright and fair in his dealings with you."
