Buenos dias,
Antonio de Motti of “Vela” reporting. Cardamine keep flow as planned. Our routes wasn't interrapted by any hostiles and we safetely arrived to Beaumont Base.
En route back from Bering with a load of Premium Scrap, I was met the Unioner's vessels near Freeport 2, who followed me to Texas-Bering gate, where we have had a conversation (Unioners, 26-03-826). Seniora Gunda Riehl was suprised to see our vessel in Bering system without making prior contact and she knew nothing about Cuatroce. Additionally, she said that the Union's been looking for Cardamine suppliers. I reccomend to contact her as soon as possible to establish trade relationships between Cutroce and Union.
While passing through Coronado system, I met the freelancer with a callsign "Liquid Sniper", who was flying a Marauder heavy fighter. She asked me to stop and as it was clear, that this vessel can do nothing to my armored battletransport, I stopped my engines and asked about what did she want. After brief conversation (Freelancer, 26-03-826), Seniorita jumped straight to the business - she needed a slave and she had some very strict requirements. I will list them below:
Woman
Age between 18 and 22
"A rebellious soul" - as she said. One way or another, but this individual was well-informed about how our society and slavery works. Freelancer wanted someone, who doesn't want to comply with our regime, someone from "dangerous places, where you send people like her to collect resources, until their will to resist will be broken" as she has said. Despite the fact, that this statement was exaggerated, I think, that it will also help us to get rid of potential rebel and troubles connected with her.
She shouldn't have a lot of records on her from governments. Someone from unlawful or neutral parties maybe.
The list of recruitments is big, but the price is also lucrative enough - 10.000,000 SC She also said, that she doesn't care about slave's dependence on cardamine, but if she has it, we should also provide her with weekly supply of cardamine for one person for additional price in 2,500,000 SC.
At last, Premium Scrap from out contractors at Bristol Depot delivered to Valetta Shipyard. Our engineers already begun to reforge them.
21:40:20UN|Hellion: Riehl: "....*surprised* Is that an outcast transport? I don't have any fix on the transponders." 21:40:44Lost.Hours: An Aspis, indeed. 21:40:48UN|Hellion: Riehl: *hailing frequencies open* "'Ey, Maltese - this is Lazurite three, callpings and ID yourself." 21:41:26UN|Hellion: Riehl: "I'll be back in a moment, I've got a mute transport to question." 21:41:40UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Cut these drives, Maltese." 21:42:08UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Look, we're not going to pirate you. You're shipping in bering. We wanna' know the specifics." 21:42:12QC|"Vela": de Motti: Unioner. We'll speak. 21:42:41UN|Hellion: Riehl: *slackening off* "This is Gunda Riehl. You were smuggling on our terf without making prior contact." 21:42:47QC|"Vela": de Motti: This shipments must be delivered to Valetta Shipyard as soon as possible. Let we talk fast. 21:43:06QC|"Vela": de Motti: Do you have evidences of smuggling, senior Riehl? 21:43:07UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Sure, well, if you're gonna' talk I won't need to blow it out of your hull and send it to our own shipyards." 21:43:26UN|Hammonia: Val: "She's telling the truth." 21:43:29UN|Hellion: Riehl: "You're an outcast. And it's Senorita. I assume Malta's either trucking slaves or parts for slave ships." 21:43:32Lost.Hours: This is exactly what I had in mind when I mentioned my interest in local politics. 21:43:56UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Look, the Union's got no trouble with Malta. If a new cartel's moving into the Rheinland border systems, that's our... 21:43:58UN|Hellion: business." 21:44:04QC|"Vela": de Motti: Excuse me, seniorita Riehl. We have no stasis capsules to haul slaves. 21:44:21UN|Hellion: Riehl: *she runs a scan* "...It's all Greek to me, mate." 21:44:24Lost.Hours: Stasis capsules. Such a fancy name for cages. 21:44:53UN|Hellion: Riehl: "What does Valetta want with prime scrap? Rhetorical question." 21:44:54QC|"Vela": de Motti: Cuatroce isn't barbarian slavers like Corsair are. We are businessmans 21:45:07UN|Hellion: Riehl: "...Wait... Cuatroce?" 21:45:14UN|Hellion: Riehl: *she trips over the pronunciation.* 21:45:28UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Pirate, you got any idea....?" 21:45:34Lost.Hours: Such a curious sounding name for an organization. 21:45:38QC|"Vela": de Motti: I suppose you need to know more about our organization. 21:45:49Lost.Hours: I've seen this vessel a few times, but I never went as far as to question it's origins. 21:45:56UN|Hellion: Riehl: "We do if you're going to be hauling premium salvage out of Bering without paying the Unions a tithe." 21:46:07UN|Hellion: Riehl: "We try to regulate who filches from those wargraves." 21:46:15QC|"Vela": de Motti: Is that the only problem, seniora Riehl? 21:46:17UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Anybody but the Junkers or separatists is open-season for us." 21:46:31UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Maybe. The Union's been looking for Cardamine suppliers." 21:46:57UN|Hellion: Riehl: "I bet a credit and a half you didn't come down this far south with just a hold full of grain." 21:47:16QC|"Vela": de Motti: How interesting... Can I have your contacts to talk about that, seniora? 21:47:52QC|"Vela": de Motti: About Cardamine supplies, of 'course. 21:47:54UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Was hoping you'd phone it in. Here. [Incoming Neuralnet encrypted address ---> Address saved]. " 21:48:38Lost.Hours: Delightful to see such a pleasant encounter between people. 21:48:54UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Consider that your get-out-of-jail card. If we hear from whatever slice of Maltese society y'all are shipping for..." 21:49:06UN|Hellion: "We won't stop your transports for questioning the next time we see you in Bering. Deal?" 21:49:23QC|"Vela": [Address saved] de Motti: We'll contact you later. Well, time is credits. So, deal. 21:49:37UN|Hellion: Riehl: "Of course. Safe skies. Don't run into the law out here." 21:49:41Lost.Hours: True businessman. 21:49:54UN|Hellion: Riehl: *she cracks a grin* "Hey, my ancestors worked for businessmen." 21:49:58QC|"Vela": de Motti: Safe skies and let cash flow.

And I'm actually surprised to see you here. Aren't you at war with Crayterians?" 22:14:02Liquid.Sniper: "Listen, I don't really care. Just interest." 22:14:53QC|"Vela": de Motti: There is some kind of NAP. Crayterians still not welcome us as a smugglers, but... 22:15:08QC|"Vela": de Motti: Otherwise they welcome us like as allies against Kingdom of Gallia. 22:15:31Liquid.Sniper: "Oh, so they went for it? I guess it was the question of time after this mess with this big ship." 22:15:34Liquid.Sniper: "Anyway..." 22:16:04Liquid.Sniper: "As I've said I don't really care about what ya doing back to 'Crons. Slavery, selling drugs, I don't care." 22:16:14Liquid.Sniper: "Until you are one of these nomad-fanatics." 22:16:23Liquid.Sniper: "Otherwise we can do business." 22:16:46QC|"Vela": de Motti: What kind of business? 22:17:17Liquid.Sniper: "Listen, I don't care about what ya doin' and you shouldn't care about what I'm doin'" 22:17:27Liquid.Sniper: "Are you engaged in slavery?" 22:18:11QC|"Vela": de Motti: Not personally. But we'll looking for slaves to work at Malta, Albegna or other planets, facilities and ships. 22:18:39Liquid.Sniper: "But your... Organization or rather a Cartel also sells slaves, am I right?" 22:19:19QC|"Vela": de Motti: Cuatroce. For now we only buying slaves, but we can sell few persons, if you're interested. 22:19:24Liquid.Sniper: "Otherwise you would be bad slavers or rather just some corporative directors, huh." 22:19:33Liquid.Sniper: "Oh heck yea I'm interested" 22:20:03QC|"Vela": de Motti: Is that must be man, woman or... child? 22:20:14Liquid.Sniper: "But I also have some parameters that have to be met" 22:20:29Liquid.Sniper: "I'm sure you will be glad to accept them though" 22:21:10QC|"Vela": de Motti: I'm listening 22:21:35Liquid.Sniper: "I'm looking for a woman with age from eighteen to twenty two. One important thing - I have studied your business for a bit..." 22:22:11Liquid.Sniper: "And I know that your "slavery" is used only for slaves, that don't like your regime. Others if they comply to you are becoming 22:22:33Liquid.Sniper: "The full right members of your society." 22:23:08Liquid.Sniper: "I need a person, who doesn't want to comply with your regime. Who is sent to the most dangerous places to collect resources... 22:23:24Liquid.Sniper: "Until their will is broken. I need that person." 22:23:46Liquid.Sniper: "As you can see, I will save you from potential rebel and trouble, not only it, but I will also pay for you." 22:24:00QC|"Vela": de Motti: So you need a rebel soul? Or souls? 22:24:21Liquid.Sniper: "A soul. For now." 22:24:55Liquid.Sniper: "Again, woman, age between eighteen and twenty two, a rebelous soul." 22:25:12Liquid.Sniper: "Also she shouldn't be any kind of ex-military or civilian in general." 22:25:39QC|"Vela": de Motti: Should we meet at Freeport 10, yesterday?I suppose its enough time to find situable candidate. 22:25:43Liquid.Sniper: "In other words, she shouldn't have a lot of records on her from governments" 22:25:57Liquid.Sniper: "Or you can just drop me a word via neural net." 22:26:25QC|"Vela": de Motti: Can I have your NeuralNet contact, please? 22:26:49Liquid.Sniper: "It's floating, I change it every day or two, but should be enough for you." 22:27:14Liquid.Sniper: "151:10003.263.1 - NeuralNet adress." 22:27:22QC|"Vela": de Motti: Gracias.
