Make an item like ITEM_TICKET
The item would be a nothing item, other than it holds info for later use
in the obj vals. Like so:
0: The vnum of the rented mob.
1: The vnum of the room the stable is in. (That way Bob won't take
tickets from Joe's stable.)
2: Cost to un-rent the mount. (Or just charge the player when he rents
the mount.)
3: <unused>
When someone gives a ticket to a stablehand, the hand checks to make sure
the ticket is his, and if so, extract the ticket and load the mob
specified by the ticket.
