"Do you need us to provide the materials?"
The man asked seriously, given the high-end nature of the request.
"How much would it cost if you provided the materials?" Riley asked.
He hadn't bought the materials himself to save time, hoping the institution could supply them.

Riley paused, quickly calculating in his head.
Twenty thousand...
That would be 240,000 a year, enough to buy 24 Fire Dogs...
What the heck!
Rip-off!
"Never mind," Riley said, pulling the papers back from the man's hands and turning around to leave.
"Wait!"
The man quickly blocked his path.
"We can negotiate the price. Don't rush off."
