"This is just the beginning," Bentley shook his head, "Next, I'll show you what real robbery feels like."
They were about to enter the Celestial District, which had a separate border checkpoint.
Bentley had Celestial District residency documents, a decent status, and only needed to pay fifty silver coins as a clearance fee.
The vehicle and goods passing through were charged a clearance fee of two hundred silver coins.
Qu Jianlei and Flower Scorpion didn't have documents, but since Bentley vouched for them, they got temporary permits.
The temporary permits cost fifty each, valid for a year and need renewal upon expiration. Each permit had a deposit of... five hundred silver coins!
Qu Jianlei felt like his head was about to explode, "This really makes my already poor situation... even worse."
