"The pay for the cattle drive is a dollar a day for each of you and a bonus when we return if you do a good job and don't screw up," Sesshoumaru informed them, sounding more like Bankotsu was expecting him to.
"Who's going with you?" Bankotsu wondered out of curiosity.
"Seven men, nine including the two of you, and my family. They will handle the meals and water, though you will probably want to bring some extra just in case. You will need to bring your own tents and bedding as well as anything else you might need.
"We have a death clause for those that go on cattle drives with us. If the trip turns out to be 'to the death' for you, fifty dollars will be given to your next of kin. You simply need to tell me where to mail the money."
"The women are coming? Forgive me for second guessing you, but isn't it not safe to bring womenfolk on the trail?" Bankotsu questioned, a bit concerned about the idea of women being on the hard trail; knowing what kind of dangers could be out there.
"It is not safe for them to stay here unprotected while we are gone. Besides, we will need someone to cook the meals; Inuyasha's cooking is inedible. Let me know your decision tomorrow when you finish your work," Sesshoumaru instructed before heading back toward his house.
