Merades lay on the hospital bed gasping for air.
Finally picked up a small life.
It doesn't matter if you owe money, if you have a reduced security level, or even if you have more than a million debts.
At least she still retains the position she just earned
And the F-level security clearance is not the lowest, it is still a support staff level.
The reason why the company retained her position is probably because it is her job to maintain the company's good reputation
In this regard, she actually did a good job, but too many people died this time.
Then I had to divert some money from the fund and send it to the plague god.
She still owes a lot of debt, so to speak, a loan to pay her salary.
[Transfer:-210000]
[You have new information, from: Burger King]
[Burger King: Yes, military science and technology is about credit, let's go back and talk to your fellow countrymen about your goodness. γ
Meredes frowned.
[Meredes: The Wanderer Convoy has been released, when will the repair of the border wall begin?] γ
[Burger King: Hey, we are all honest people, you say a time, and our workers will be on site immediately. γ
Merades: Let's start tonight. γ
[Burger King: That's not going to work, we're going to have a party tonight.] γ
Merrides only felt a little out of breath.
But the thought that he had at least one life left was relieved.
[New Personnel Transfer: Some of your work will be taken over by Anthony Gilchrist.] γ
[Personnel information: Anthony Gilchrist]
[Security level: B]
[Please cooperate with the employee in the relevant security work.] γ
Seeing this news, Merrides felt even more uncomfortable - the company was gradually adjusting the resource tilt of Night City, and would send a lot of things in one after another.
Originally, she did all these things, but because of the affairs of the Bad Land, now her security authority is gone.
The position is retained, but looking at the company's arrangement, it is obvious that it intends to send this new agent to gradually take over his own work!
In a company like Military Tech, the level of security is everything!
But now, she can hire the best mercenaries in Night City, and she may not have a chance to turn the tables.
"Anthony Gilchrist, don't let me catch you making a mistake."
The same file Lille had reviewed as well, and Meredes really wasn't ghostly.
This woman is also quite clever, and in order to avoid a conflict in the follow-up information of the real lizardmen, she directly carried the cauldron herself.
This pot is carried down, and if you don't die, you have to peel off your skin, but if there is really an intelligence conflict on the lizardman side in the future, it will not be a big problem and the company will be liquidated.
There's only one way she'll be guilty: Burger King turns into a lizardman in front of her.
Haha, but how is that possible?
She must think so, after all, living in this world, everyone has an element of gambling.
Coming back to their senses, the wanderers gathered around the fire, drinking beer and celebrating the victory.
It is also bidding farewell to the dead.
In the end, Cedric was the only one who died in the battle, and the seriously wounded young men were rescued, and although they could not move until a suitable prosthesis was found, they were at least alive.
The last old warriors of the red ochre were piled up in a firewood pyre, which was reduced to ashes with the flames.
Lille sat down next to Thor: "You guys are stuck in Reno's supply is done, and I will get you another contract from the military technology side." β
"What contract?"
"Border wall repairs."
Thor leaned back slightly in respect.
If he remembers correctly, they tore down the border wall.
Now the wanderer is really busy.
The looted arms will be sold, the border wall will be repaired, and new camps will be built, and military technology will also issue some commissions to continue to clear out nocturnal ghosts.
It's always good to be busy β there's hope for everyone now.
Thor held up his beer, and Lille raised his bottle and clinked his glass.
"Ha - the famous mercenary only drinks drinks, this world is really wonderful."
"What's wrong with the drink?"
Thor smiled and put the beer down, "What do you think we should do to build a town here?" β
This was what he had intended.
Night City is one of the most developed cities in the world, and the degree of freedom is also among the highest, and building a paradise for wanderers here is what he came here for.
Large, deserted towns where they can buy land for a little money, and then settle down here, just like they did before they became outcasts.
Instead of answering the question, Lille asked, "What do you think of Night City?" β
Looking at the holographic billboard that reached into the sky in the distance, the breathtaking and beautiful city, Saul sighed:
"To be honest, I understand now, I never understood it - it seems that you also think my idea is too naΓ―ve."
"Not naΓ―ve, stupid, what kind of person would pin their hopes on something they don't understand at all?
There may be nothing in the badlands, but at least, there is a group of trustworthy families. β
"But the bad land is the bad land after all, and we basically lack everything in the form of prosthetics, medicine, cars, fuel, and weapons for self-protection.
The number of newborn babies is rising every year, fewer and fewer people are joining us, and many clans are disbanding or merging into other families. β
The more Saul spoke, the more sad he became, and he looked at Lille seriously: "You have given us hope, Adicado will always be your friend, and we will always support you." β
"Don't plan to mess with the company?"
"Thor is such a big fool." Thor waved his hand and laughed at himself, "Don't mention this." β
"Okay, I do have a long-term business for you, remember those artificial plasma?"
Lille placed a separation chip on the table.
Adicado is indeed not just such a small group of people, although they have declined badly over the years, it is true that they have not declined to the extent that there are only 100 people.
Originally, their main area of activity was near the U.S.-Mexico border, but since the Soldi proposed to pass through the clan, the center of activity has gradually moved north.
Now it's basically making money running between Chichihua in Mexico, North and South California, and Nevada.
It is entirely up to the Adcardo family to maintain this line, "collecting" raw materials in the cities on the line, and then selling drugs across borders.
Because it spans three countries, many black market operations are frighteningly expensive to investigate, and the gap between production and sales places has skyrocketed the secrecy of business.
As for how profitable this business is.
Synthetic plasma is a conventional drug in this world, monopolized by large companies, and used in huge quantities β far larger than in the normal world.
All Lille and Adaccardo need to do is grab some live knives and come back as blood-producing unlucky bastards, which may not cost too much, but at a low cost.
After making money, he went to the black market to buy some biomaterials, and Lille was able to immediately make immunosuppressants with genetically modified biliverdin as the main ingredient, relying on biofilters and lizard serum.
Immunosuppressants, plasma, once the two businesses are stabilized, it will definitely not be a problem to maintain Adicado's recovery.
This is not a short-term business that the company gives them away, but a long-term business with stable income.
Saul was impressed, but there was still a problem to solve: "This kind of technology, the company will find out that there will be big problems." β
"That's right, so I'm going to find a way to keep the production process a secret, and get ready, you need time to recuperate for this big business."
Lille lifted the drink can again: "Now, let's enjoy the victory first--let's talk about Cedric, I don't know him anymore." β
"Hah, this old fellow, he used to be very beautiful."
