Before Walsh left, Nina Jacobs gave him a few cookbooks.
As far as she knew, postpartum recovery meals weren't difficult to make. For a professional chef like Walsh, it should be a piece of cake.
She planned to pay Walsh a salary based on the standards of the base's cafeteria.
She'd heard that salaries at the base could be paid in Points, or even Crystal Cores and Gold.
However, Gold was quite valuable. Typically, only those willing to receive an annual salary could have it paid in Gold.
"It's a good thing Nina reminded us to bring all the family's Gold,"
"Now Gold has become hard currency. We can exchange it for Points at the base's financial office."
Daniel Hale said, feeling very fortunate.
If you didn't want to exchange it for Points, you could also go to the financial office to have it minted into an equivalent amount of Gold Coins or Gold Bars.
Both Gold Coins and Gold Bars could be used as cash on the base.
They were even more valuable than Crystal Cores.
