"I will take you to the Grand Foreman, but your little army stays outside" The Commander said

"Hold on." Sam quickly signalled. Cho came off the Dropship. "they've agreed to take us." Sam informed. Cho simply nodded "no army?" "we've been ordered here." "Very well." Sam turned to the guard. "okay, we're ready to go."

Kane Mon Aug 24, 2009 1:20 pm

"Follow me then" The commander said and walked in.

spaceflyer Mon Aug 24, 2009 1:22 pm

Cho followed, Sam remained on Cho's right. Cho didn't like it, and it showed in her eyes. This was different to the normal operations that the corp had faced.

The commander lead them to the hub then he withdrew a green crystal and crushed it send the three warping into a into the grandForemans office. He sat in his seat, there were guards either side of him.

"GrandForeman we have two people here to see you one of them is the intruder the Ghouls reported to the Council a few hours ago" The Commander said

"I see" The Grandforeman said

Cho calmly looked a surprised before looking at Sam, her eyes showed surprise as well.

"You have a lot of gall to return here" Grandforeman said "Now what do you want?"

spaceflyer Mon Aug 24, 2009 1:35 pm

"Under normal circumstances, yes." Cho replied. "however, I have a business proposition for you Grand Foreman." She said to him. "The Corporation would like to mine one seam of titanium. You get a 25% cut of all resources mined. This deal is for 1 year, and then we hand back the seam to you."

Kane Mon Aug 24, 2009 1:45 pm

"So you wish to rent a seam of titanium eh?" The Grandforeman chuckled "My kingdom is all about profits we make from mining we have income from five six other kingdoms, so we have more than enough wealth to last our kingdom many millennia"

spaceflyer Mon Aug 24, 2009 2:20 pm

"I actually disagree, the resources you have would mean very little when you reach the space age. The Corporations would eat your kingdom alive and when there's nothing left spit and chew you out." Cho remarked. "I also know corporations who wouldn't even give a toss over your wealth and plunder it dry. We're asking for a rent of 1 year, that's all. We harvest the titanium which'll only be 12.67% of the seam you get about 25% of that amount in monthly installments. And when we are finished, we pack up and leave it for you to harvest." Cho number crunched explaining the situation. "The corporation also provides it's own security of the mining platform deployed and will aid in your kingdom's defence if the situation arises and we feel threatened."

"I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request." The Grandforeman replied

spaceflyer Mon Aug 24, 2009 2:33 pm

"Indeed. Thank you for your time Grandforeman." Cho cut it short, bowing politely. Sam bowed as well. "May we return to our forces, safely now?"

Kane Mon Aug 24, 2009 2:37 pm

The Grandforeman snapped his fingers the two were transported outside.

spaceflyer Mon Aug 24, 2009 4:40 pm

Cho calmly looked at the corporation military. "pull out." she said to Sam as she boarded the dropship. Sam merely beckoned for the troops to begin a retreat. She quietly didn't like that man, but wouldn't say such things.

Kane Mon Aug 24, 2009 4:45 pm

The troops simply went back to waiting around for the next bandit ambush.
