On our daily interception missions patrolling the lanes close to the New Tokyo gate, I have two transports to report. The transports in question are US|USV-Stockton which was carrying 5,000 units of Helium-3 bound for Planet Pittsburgh in New York, and {DHC}Hirm which was carrying a full load of robotic hardware. After some negotiations, I managed to get both transports to donate an amount to our cause. 8 million from the USI, and 3 million from the DHC. Both were especially cooperative, so they will be registered on the whitelist for our targets temporarily. Remember that we are not greedy barbarians like the Hogosha, and that this money goes towards our fight against the unjust.

[08.02.2022 21:27:46] US|USV-Stockton: Sidney: What can I do for you?
[08.02.2022 21:27:57] >BD<Kanabo-5: State your destination with this cargo, first off.

[08.02.2022 21:29:01] >BD<Kanabo-5: Secondly, at how much is your cargo valued at the destination?
[08.02.2022 21:29:42] US|USV-Stockton: Sidney: My last run I think it was selling for a bit over 9000 per unit.
[08.02.2022 21:29:55] US|USV-Stockton: I would have to check my papers to get an exact number.
[08.02.2022 21:30:17] >BD<Kanabo-5: Is that something you can do in a brief amount of time?
[08.02.2022 21:30:38] US|USV-Stockton: Sure, give me just a second. Cockpit is a bit of a mess...
[08.02.2022 21:30:57] US|USV-Stockton: Let's See Helium-3, earlier today....
[08.02.2022 21:31:07] US|USV-Stockton: 9829 per unit it appears.
[08.02.2022 21:31:23] US|USV-Stockton: Sidney: higher than I remembered
[08.02.2022 21:31:39] >BD<Kanabo-5: By my calculations, that racks about 50 million sc. Seems quite a nice payout.
[08.02.2022 21:31:50] >BD<Kanabo-5: Oh, have I got a twofer?
[08.02.2022 21:31:55] US|USV-Stockton: Well, it isn't all profit you know, I have to purchase the stuff...
[08.02.2022 21:32:07] >BD<Kanabo-5: Eh, screw it. Too much effort.
[08.02.2022 21:32:08] US|USV-Stockton: Sidney: Greetings {DHC}Hirm.
[08.02.2022 21:32:49] >BD<Kanabo-5: DHC pilot, you'll be dealt with shortly. Don't make me chase you down.
[08.02.2022 21:32:57] {DHC}Hirm: Guten tag everyone
[08.02.2022 21:33:02] >BD<Kanabo-5: I'll be brief then, USI employee.

[08.02.2022 21:33:43] >BD<Kanabo-5: If you can recall.
[08.02.2022 21:33:54] US|USV-Stockton: Let me get my calculator...
[08.02.2022 21:34:05] >BD<Kanabo-5: Oi.

[08.02.2022 21:35:05] >BD<Kanabo-5: Or I'll just start shouting numbers at this point. Damned bureaucrats...
[08.02.2022 21:35:43] US|USV-Stockton: Sidney: before other incidentals, lunch, coffee... beer.
[08.02.2022 21:35:55] >BD<Kanabo-5: Very well, USI vessel. I'll require 10 million as a donation to the Dragons. That should spare you room for the coffee.
[08.02.2022 21:36:03] US|USV-Stockton: not that I would ever fly intixicated...
[08.02.2022 21:36:06] >BD<Kanabo-5: As for the DHC vessel, 3 million.
[08.02.2022 21:36:22] US|USV-Stockton: 10 million? that is quite a hefty percentage.
[08.02.2022 21:36:34] >BD<Kanabo-5: It's under half of your net profit is it not?

[08.02.2022 21:37:17] US|USV-Stockton: Well, yes, but you may not be the only time I have to make a payout to get to Liberty...
[08.02.2022 21:37:22] US|USV-Stockton: I can do 8 million.

[08.02.2022 21:37:52] US|USV-Stockton: I hope your organization uses it well. That is a lot of coffee.
[08.02.2022 21:38:11] >BD<Kanabo-5: Cooperative transports don't get their hull breached. Simple.
[08.02.2022 21:38:23] >BD<Kanabo-5: I'm sure it will go towards a lot of.... coffee.
