He must be Nagoaka Ryoichi, I guess. All right, let's see how this goes. he says to himself, and then goes on...
Mr. Ryoichi, thank you for coming. Yes, there are two things that I would like you to help me with. One of them is... some Kusari heavy batteries and shield, like the ones you're using in super capital ship warfare. Battleship class...
He pauses to catch a deep breath, mustering some courage:
... and that is going to take us to the second, legal concern. This new ship, would indeed fit the "Kusari Battleship" specifications. If I'll try to even take this out of the dry dock, Kusari officials would take that as an affront. Not to mention the "export" issues we'd get at the border stations.
Armin chuckles, catches one more deep breath, then continues:
I need this ship to be considered a "legal" good, packed and ready for export for a natural person... you know. I know... this will be difficult. However, I'm willing to pay you as much as it takes, to get the job done. What do you say? If you agree, name your price...
He leaves the phrase in suspension, waiting for an answer.
