If Elves were trying to bribe the reds they would offer them an actual lot of money and ask what else they might want.

They could demonstrate.

Sure! They will try to bribe some random yellow to move out of his apartment building, as a demonstration. Hi, random yellow, you are being bribed to move out of your apartment building. Do you want a lot of money?

Uh. Why is this happening.

Cultural exchange reasons. Want anything other than money?

...why is this happening is he on TV? How soon would he have to move out? How much money? What about his family?

He could have, say, a week to move out? He is not on TV. The Elves check how much money is in their portal accounts and offer That Much.

Why do they want him to do this why is it worth that much to them he's confused.

There was a dispute over why it was so hard to get the reds to move out and it was proposed it be settled by trying to get random other people to move out. They don't know why the Amentans wanted to solve it that way.

Uh, are they going to actually follow through or do they just want to know hypothetically?

They'll follow through, it'd be dishonest otherwise!

...if they're really sure, he'll take it.

Cool! The Elves tell people that this is a demonstration of How To Bribes.

That's not what they meant.

Maybe improving their communication would make them better at bribes.

They do not want to communicate with reds they want them to leave.

This remains not the Elves' problem.

Somebody burns down a red building. Tragically, no one thought to call the fire department.

That person will of course be arrested for murder.

They have not been caught, but sure, whenever they find them.

The Valar will help! 

Uh, how.

They can make it impossible for people to lie and then ask. Everyone. If they did it or know who did.

That seems like it would be very disruptive if everyone were suddenly unable to lie and interrupted while going about their day.

Oh do they have a better suggestion to find the culprit.
