Coden nods to Aloysius and says, "I'm glad that this business worked out for both of us. You going to keep needing more flint?" Once the operation is finished he says to his companions, "Aloysius is going to pull some strings and get the bounty called off of the Ledo giants - as long as they cooperate with us. Hopefully that will help to smooth matters a bit." "The market fluxes a tad depending our need to produce coin. We generally buy at 1-2 ceramics a pound. This should keep us for a month or so, maybe a bit longer if we can utilize the reddish rock. If you can broker a deal for the giants to produce solely for Balic, well, we'll see about getting you that villa and staff, brother."

HurK begins offloading the many flint sacks for Aloysius's retinue to take. Once done he turns and looks down to Coden "Shall we?" he gestures to follow Aloysius so that they can safely retrieve their silver and/or gems...

That is easily done. You can either take the coin or gem or even convert the other silver to gem or even gold if you wish. Any appraisals made will confirm the value of gem this time. How would you like your change, sirs?

"That might take a few days or longer." Speaks Aloysius somewhat loudly. He continues softer in tone. "It also crosses into other offices and *I do not* wish scrutiny into these purchases of flint. Anything that could be seen as a misappropriation of funds could personally put me into focus. So in other words, no Sir Dwarf."

Coden opens his mouth, then shuts it quickly. Having some actual silver pieces for smaller purchases might be useful, but he didn't want to start an argument in the middle of the deal. Besides, they must've gotten some coin from selling other goods, right?

It takes some time for the clerks to muster together something close to your balance, with the added silver coins from the skimmer sales. They have (sadly not in specific 10 sp gems):
9 * 15 GP gems. There are 3 fire opals, 1 blue sapphire, 4 black opals and a large garnet (1).
16 * 15 SP fancy stones. An equal mix of fat amber (8) and golden topaz (8) (they look like they may have all belonged to a singular piece of jewelry at some point).
There are 10 silver coins left they can't easily convert at this time.

THANKS!" the massive brute bellows to the clerk as he scoops up everything and hides the gem pouch deep within his massive backpack --------------------- "Let's get sailing!" Hurk says as he gets back to the ship. "Time to see about some weapons!" (he raises his eyebrows up and down in quick succession)
