      100 pills of 30 mg morphine each cost 36 $, that’s 3 g. So 1 g is 12 $.

      One pound is around 450 g. So it’s about 5000 $ total.

      A decent amount of money, but if you resell it on black market you can make a big profit.

      “Nah, we ain’t paying that. We’ve determined the fair and reasonable rate is a stick to bite down on; don’t be a pussy.”
