In The Man Who Counts, Nicholas van Rijn is trapped on the surface of Diomedes with Sandra Tamarin from Hermes. In "Territory," he is trapped on the surface of t'Kela with Joyce Davisson from Esperance. He begins other narratives on Earth or in space: a much-traveled merchant although we accompany him no further this evening.
We will reread some of The Man Who Counts tomorrow.

Kaor, Mr. Stirling!
And "Margin of Profit" begins with mention of how even his receptionist on Earth was armed! Against assassins and kidnapers.
Ad astra! Sean
