Rip the rip-off

System : Lagoon Sector NI-S b4-10
Docked at Amundsen Terminal at 10:26 am. After landing I went to visit the station management to look for some repairs. After the inspection he told me the minimum price is 1.5 million. What the hell... This is a rip-off...
I tried to bargain for a lower price but he said he can't make a discount even for 1cr. I understand that this stations are 4K Lightyear far away from the population zone, but the prices are crazy. As he says; they can harvest some of the materials from the asteroids and the belts but most of them are coming from the population zone. And also there are many dangers on the road for supply convoys, like pirates or the nature itself. So everything is unusually expensive down here.
Two hours later Deck Chief come to me with the inventory report, which I totaly forgot. We trade our cargo for the expenses immediately. They are paying far more than I expected. Got some exra cash in return. So we booked rooms in Amundsen Royale, for the crew and I, untill the repairs and painting is finished at Spartan. Don't get fooled by the name Royale by the way... It is not something so fancy, but good enough.
We will discuss where to go next at lounge tonight. Actually, I want to go see the ruins in that map, which I come by earlier. Some ancient civilization called Guardians. I am not sure if they call themselves guardian. But whatever, knowing there was another civilization in the same galaxy is already fascinating. I hope I can convince the rest of the scientists to go there next... We will see...
Going to the diner right now, to eat the most expensive fish in the galaxy with a glass of double priced liquor. Crew is already in the bar. I'll join them after...
