Nomad Lands
"So how about this then, the backs of cows for you can be marked with, for example, green paint, numbered sequentially, every third day. So the first one you take is numbered '1', then next one '2' and so on. To keep it simple, after '10, it goes back to '1'. Would that work?" Roahfustion asks.
If that gets a nood she tries, "Payment. Well, if you've only got really huge denomination coins, to get things going why don't you pay for a block of three months months? That's 120 cows. We can assume you've had the first month's worth. Taht'sll make the farmers want to go with it. Someone from the city can come and check that you're getting what you're supposed to from time to time. Let's say, once a month. We'd need to get it agreed of course, but honestly I don't think that would be a probelm. Just provided you don't run out of money and the farmers don't run out of cows. I think neither will occur, but that's the point of the monthly checking. Finer details can be worked out later."
"If you're happy with that, then if someone catches me a goat and I'll see if I can find out what's making them ill. Or if you don't want to bother, we'll head off back down the trail now."
When it comes to 'how much' a cow is worth she has a guess at $6000 four hundred silvers. if she gets it far too high then a rebate can be given later.
