As the glasses are emptied Trueno takes a few puffs from his cigar, tasting and savoring it. "Ah, i see what you mean senor...those are sure able to sweeten an evening, gracias - now as the Corsairs are fair business partners, i too will share some of my personal stash"
He wiggles a pocket flask out of his smoking pouring the glasses with it's contents- a rich yellowish liquid that has slurry tufts of green in it.
"True Maldava Rum, distilled on Planet Crete! Salud on "lucrative partnerships"! "
Truenos glass is emptied rapidly and he waits, flask in the other hand on Brisbanes reaction.
"Bueno.....much better...try it! Anyways....i think we will find an agreement. Maybe you can think on the possibilities to acquire some energy capactiators and energy core flux chargers....and not the ones for the civilian market. We might be also interested in gaining access to some rheinlandish fighter craft armor plates- it is quite hard to get any undamaged ones. Thirdly we need to are in dire need of /conn 2.0 simulator software...it seems new training sequences are available and we don't want to slack behind on this area,si?
Other than that...no Corsario will ever say no to the goods the houses have to offer, food, electronic gadgets, things to ease every days life...
Oh and i didn't ask yet...are you even ready to brave the Omicrons?"
He laughs at this more or less rhetorical question - "Had a gringo here yesterday...who wasn't too keen on taking up to a honorable invitation of the Empire tsk tsk tsk....
I heard mi commandante made the guest wing of Myrtos Villa ready for you...you should feel honored, he will even be there to continue negotiations, an honor as well so you don't have to bear with me"
He grins broadly- "Let's drink!"
