CHAPTER 5

We went to the bar, we drank beer silently, listening to the rumors around us...i couldnt stop thinking about that ship. After a while, i asked my friend:

"Could that thing be ready in...say, one week? With everything working, from engines and weapon systems to the smallest lever on the control pult?"

My friend smiled for a while, then he said:

"Damn, i knew i had to drag you down here earlier! You said you needed a ship for your...eh....job. You said you needed something...big. Well, my old friend - you found it right here! Your....hmm...employer...doesent want to let you have this destroyer that easy, does he? Well, he wont laugh that much when he sees you, having built up a unique and brand new ship for the rest of this very week! Damn, man! Buy that thing right away! You dont need any itsy-bitsy pilot ID's to get it....but....however, you may need to strenghten your ranks here....i mean....people start asking uncomfortable questions when you buy things....that could easily be solved. Buy a beer for everyone in this bar and noone will care who you work for! See that old gas-bag over there? That's our old barman...you may need to....sort of...bribe him, to give you a good chance of buying that ship...you are not the only person here, who wants to buy it...and belive me - there are people here, who would offer twice as much you have to buy it! Sign up for the auction and talk to that old man, i guarantee you - by the end of this evening you will have that ship with all...legal documends you need! Go now!"
