Chapter 78 Thigh
Tonight’s trip is to complete the last part of the deal with Kangtao-hand over the prosthetic body of James Norris.
In the car, Chessen asked curiously: "Brother, why is there a bump on your head? Are you injured?"
Liel calmly said: "It's okay, I hit it myself - —Tell me about the situation at Kangtao.”
“I don’t know who is responsible for the contact there, but the level is not low. You know, Eastern companies don’t like to show up in this kind of thing. .”
"Not low? How high do you estimate it is."
"It is said that Arasaka is equivalent to the deputy director of the operations department stationed in Night City. In short, he is pretty powerful."
Cheson After speaking, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag, but none of the three of them smoked this stuff.
"It's better not to smoke. It's healthy." Chessen put the things away and continued, "It's like this. Although Kang Tao doesn't want to get involved in these things, the trend has suddenly changed recently.
They expressed some opinions and wanted to support a middleman in Night City - but to be strong, they must have powerful brothers like you. ”
This was said comfortably, and Jack and V looked satisfied.
Lille just glanced at the two idiots, and then said: "Do you want to be the middleman?"
"Well, it's great to be able to hug this thigh, but it's not necessary. It depends on your opinion.”
“No.” Lear shook his head.
Cheson's expression was stiff, but he quickly adjusted: "Okay."
Lear added: "You gave too little information. Are you saying that you are going to give up the arms business and become a middleman? Do you think I am a fool?"
Chesson smiled awkwardly and immediately said frankly To: "Uh, okay, that's my question. Actually, you're not asking this for me, I'm just trying to help you find out what you're talking about.
It's a brother of mine who works as a middleman in Santo Domingo. Like me, I quit the company. This guy was very stubborn and wanted to do it on his own.
But you know, the most powerful person in Santo Domingo is Faraday, who left the company. A very close guy, he can eat people without spitting out their bones.
My brother lacks this kind of background support, so I can help him build some connections.”
"After talking for a long time, what is your brother's name?"
"Muael Reyes (Note 1), he originally wanted to talk to you in the next life in person, but you are not sheltering from the wind these days. Head."
Hearing this name, Lear touched his chin.
It turns out to be this good brother - isn’t this my son’s adopted son?
“Brother, are you still in the business of buying and selling second-hand cars?”
What Leal refers to as "buying and selling second-hand cars" is actually hiring mercenaries to steal cars, steal them back, let a car repairman tinker with them, and then resell them.
A few cars were bought for him by serious car owners.
In the game "Cyberpunk 2077", he has become the biggest middleman in Santo Domingo, but at this moment he is still named Faraday.
What Faraday likes to do most is to support the company. In order to support the company, he will even sell his mercenaries.
He is what Lille said, a middleman without a sense of proportion.
Smart middlemen will first avoid the brain-deadness of this dog who is willing to be a company, because sooner or later they will fail.
Chesson nodded: "Yes, but this business has just started, and it has already spread to Heywood?"
"That's not the case, I am well-informed - you brother Quite clever, but forget about meeting, leave me a phone number. "
It's just a pity that Cheson can't help his brother.
But he didn’t react much, so he just pulled if he could, and if he couldn’t, forget about it.
Lear did not actually express his opinion - after all, the biggest middleman now is Faraday.
"Okay, I'll give you his number right now."
The car drove through the crowded and wet streets of Night City, all the way to the exit of the Hanford Viaduct.
The agreed meeting place was next to a restaurant called Fatty Chicken Wings. There were not many people in this place, and even if there were, most of them were homeless. The number of cameras was significantly lower than in other urban areas.
In short, as a temporary meeting place, it is very remote and safe.
This is a typical American restaurant that sells all fast food.
However, the Lille people did not come here to eat fast food. When they arrived at the meeting place, a low-key Thracian Jefferson parked at the meeting place.
As the meeting approached, the car slowed down.
Lille said to Chesson: "Do you have an ammunition factory? A manual one will work too."
Chesson didn't know what Lear wanted to ask, but he did have one. Such a line.
"Well, I can tell you, don't sell me. I do have an ammunition production line, artificial, you know."
Artificial means that workers insert behavioral chips for manual production. Wait until you get off work to collect the chips.
Black workshops, and most of them are illegal.
“Do you think you can produce smart ammunition?”
Cheson was stunned for a moment, then asked uncertainly: “You mean”
"I want to ask Kang Tao for a supply of smart weapons and ammunition, the legal kind - to be the middleman for the interview, this kind of thing is what they think is a benefit.
I will talk to them, you come If we do this, we will gain seventy-three points, you get seven and I get three.”
Chessen was ecstatic! Smart ammunition is awesome.
Although not many street kids can afford this thing, it is expensive! And they're all geared toward guys who are a little richer.
Internet hackers, company managers who have money but no time to practice marksmanship, lone wolves who have saved a little money.
And when they use this thing, they always pull the trigger to death, so they can use it quickly. !
"Uh"
Chesson organized the language - of course he wanted such a production line!
And this was not done secretly, it was done with Kang Tao!
But if Lille is only responsible for negotiating, three is a bit too much - it's really not Chesson's greed.
You know, the energy and cost required to operate a black workshop are not low, not to mention that even if Kangtao agrees, they will definitely have to share some of the profits——
Compared to Kangtao It’s a small amount of money in terms of annual income, but if they didn’t pay attention to the small money, they wouldn’t become a super company.
Lille saw through this kid's thoughts at a glance and said impatiently: "Then eighty-two, you eight and me two, it's a fixed price. If it doesn't work, I'll ask Kang Tao for money to settle the matter in one go."
“Okay, okay, you are the master, please don’t be angry.”
The car stopped, and there were two bodyguards in black standing next to the other party's car.
Lille walked out of the car, V was holding the bag containing James Norrissian Westan in his hand, and Jack was following behind the two of them, like a mountain.
"This is a beautiful job."
The other person spoke in a dialect from somewhere in the East. Lille actually couldn't understand it, after all, he spoke Mandarin.
But it doesn't matter, he already has a translation implant.
As a commonly used language within Kangtao, the translation implant will of course also translate this dialect.
"The things are all here, but regarding the remuneration, we want to change it - we can reach a long-term cooperation."
The person who spoke in the car never got out of the car. , just sitting in the car.
Hearing this, he raised his brows: "If an ordinary person said this, I would reply to him: You are not overestimating your abilities.
But you guys are really doing well alone, I can listen Listen to your demands - but don’t go too far.”
"You see, in Santo Domingo and Night City, people like to shoot guns. You may not like the business of bullet production, but it is just right to leave it to locals like us.
I think we You can open an ammunition factory in Santo Domingo - a small workshop. With me covering it, the factory will be very stable."
The people in the car were a little surprised.
He originally thought that Lille would take advantage of the situation and become a middleman - after all, in his opinion, Lille already had the potential and conditions to be a middleman.
Capable mercenaries, good hackers and stable technical experts are the best configuration for a mercenary team, and they are also the necessary configuration for a middleman to start taking jobs.
"This is not a job that mercenaries can do."
"I know, so there needs to be a professional between us - this guy."
Liel poked Chisin.
This guy looked a lot more professional at this moment, and he suddenly lost the gangster aura he had on the streets.
Coupled with the fact that he was wearing professional tactical clothing, people immediately thought that he was a salesperson from the company.
The person sitting in the car was silent for a while, and then said with interest: "He is indeed a professional. He used to work in sales at Dara Polytechnic? Why did he quit?"
"I always do layoffs. You can't wait to be laid off, right? Just come out and do it yourself."
Liel wasn't surprised that Chesson had worked in the company.
What surprised him was that this guy actually worked in the Indian guy's company - he always thought that Chessen retired from military technology.
After saying that, the people in the car were silent again.
Lear continued: "I know you want someone who can work for you for a long time, but the corporate style doesn't work on the streets -
If I want to be a corporate dog, I will attend your induction Tested, I won’t do this job.
But if there is such a relationship, maybe I will find someone to help you. Pay more attention to the situation of your competitors - if you want to advertise new weapons or something, I can help you do it.
If not, just pay more and we will settle it in one go. . ”
In the past, Kangtao actually didn’t need mercenaries like Lille to help them advertise.
After all, their most powerful individual weapons spokesperson is Adam Hammer, and he is a paid spokesperson.
But now - isn't this the development of a better Si'an Westan?
". Deal, I hope you won't disappoint us, it will be difficult to end - the Qiandai 5's operating data reward is also included, where are the things?"
Liel's answer V waved his hand, and the latter took out a big black bag. Those who didn't know it thought it was garbage.
Liel took the bag and handed it to the bodyguard standing outside the car.
After the bodyguard verified that it was correct, he put the things into the prepared box.
The person in the car suddenly said:
“Well, let’s talk about the second thing now -
The gun you used to fight looks like The prototype weapon lost within our company”
