Reference for Arakhin 28:70
עבד נוקב מרגלית שלשים עבד עושה מעשה מחט שלשים
Perhaps the Divine Law means: Fifty sela's for all the things together? - R'Ze'ira replied: People would say, How should one who has lain with a king's daughter pay fifty, and one who has lain with the daughter of a commoner pay fifty! - Abaye replied to him: If that be right, one could argue in the case of a slave too: why for a slave who perforates pearls thirty, and for one who does needlework also thirty?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Just as the shame suffered by a king's daughter is greater than that suffered by one of common descent, so is the damage suffered in the loss of a skilled slave much greater than that suffered in the loss of an unskilled one.');"><sup>26</sup></span>
