Chapter 261 New list

"Would you like a cup of coffee? The coffee here is very good." Mikkelsen sat across from Tang Ji, still wearing the same ginger suit and top hat beside the table.

Although this very retro outfit seems out of place with the city of Night City, Mikkelsen has this ability to blend in with the surrounding environment no matter where he is.

The waitress in the see-through costume blinked at Tang Ji from a distance, obviously full of desire for the new legend, but out of professionalism and for the sake of her own safety, she did not further harass Tang Ji.

"Why did you invite me here?" Tang Ji frowned. This is the rebuilt central business district, and the coffee shop they were in was located in an area called Enterprise Square.

Tang Ji didn't even know when Corinning Company opened the central business district, but it looks as bustling as it was before the Red Sun incident.

A large number of companies have moved their offices back, and new companies have settled in, making this place very lively. Tang Ji remembers that he was fighting against Losas' offal not far from here half a year ago.

"Let you see this new land, let you be more popular." Mikkelsen added sugar to the coffee piece by piece, until the coffee was almost overflowing: "Remind you, you are still a part of human beings." member."

Tang Ji looked at Mikkelsen's sugar water, waiting for his next words.

"Seeing your performance in Paris, I feel a little uneasy. If I don't see you with my own eyes and talk to you, I can't sleep well." Mikkelsen said with a half-smile: "You are too powerful, even if In terms of the standard of the seven original sins."

"You are wasting my time. I was going to clean up a stronghold of naturalized people with Wang Zhengdao today." Tang Ji drank the coffee in front of him in one gulp: "They have a command center in Seattle, responsible for the northeast part of the Federation of."

"Don't go, that's a cover. My people worked there for three months, and it turned out that it was Sprint's outsourcing business." Mikkelsen shook his head: "So you can It's a holiday, and have a good chat with old friends."

"I don't know when we became friends." Tang Ji pushed the empty cup forward and put on his sunglasses.

This place is also considered a high-consumption place. A small cup of dirty water that tastes like instant coffee costs more than [-] federal currency.

Basically, white-collar workers who work in the surrounding area will spend here. Fortunately, this group does not pay much attention to people like Tang Ji.

Of course they have seen Tang Ji's photos, and saw his news on TV more than once, but at least they will not be the same as other districts. Seven out of ten people can recognize Tang Ji in the first second of meeting.

"I have many clones, and there is always one who can become friends with you, so let's omit this step." Mikkelsen became cheeky, with extraordinary fighting power: "In the past few months, we have cooperated very well. I think we need to cooperate more deeply.”

"I said, as long as your goal is to be a pioneer, we are friends." Tang Ji watched a man in a suit rush into the coffee shop and found a corner seat, his expression was a little nervous, and his eyes subconsciously avoided where he was. direction.

Trouble came, just as Tang Ji was about to stand up, the man in the suit suddenly twitched, struggled for a few seconds and fell flat on the table in front of him with a thud.

Some of the white-collar workers around immediately checked out and left. Some of them looked very young and planned to call the police, but finally left under the pressure of their colleagues.

The waitress walked up to the man in the suit and looked him up and down. Realizing that he was not breathing, she frowned and started calling.

"You see, our abilities complement each other very well. If they keep torturing you with such small roles, even you won't be able to bear it." Mikkelsen shook his head: "He's called Hunter Calderon, a nobody, five A day ago he was a well-paid clerk, today he is a killer with nothing, huge debts and nowhere to turn."

"Pioneer or naturalized?" Tang Ji watched the waitress hang up the phone helplessly, then directed the security guard to put the corpse in a sleeping position, and went back to business.

"Is there a difference? If you really want to know, I am the naturalized ones who have mastered many financial channels and can easily turn an ordinary person into a debt slave." Mikkelsen smiled: " If they want, they can find dozens of such people to harass you every day, although it doesn't affect you, it's still a nuisance."

"How do you want to cooperate?" Tang Ji frowned. He really didn't want to go out every day to see if there was a bomb under the car, and to check and concentrate on judging whether everyone he met was a suicide attacker.

"I need you to take your attention away from the players for a while, and focus on dealing with one of your kind first." Mikkelsen sighed: "That jealousy has made me, and many of my friends, restless recently." , we need a professional who can solve the problem once.”

"Jealous? What did he do to make you guys panic?" Tang Ji's real smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he regained his energy all of a sudden.

"Because of what happened in Gaul, one of our small circles is now quite sure that an important person is in some kind of mind control." Mikkelsen took out a few banknotes from his wallet and pressed them under the coffee tray. Tang Ji made a gesture of invitation: "If you don't mind, we can talk while walking. In theory, the corpse has already begun the process of decay."

Tang Ji followed Mikkelsen out of the coffee shop. The waitress deliberately shook her plumpness and gave Tang Ji a wink.

"As the beginning of the cooperation, I would like to remind you for free that the waitress is an external employee of the Arasaka Group's intelligence department, who is responsible for collecting business information." Mikkelsen walked in front and said without looking back: "They have been behaving The emperor is very radical, and has great plans to return to the federal market, and the emperor is as energetic as a second spring."

"I haven't agreed to cooperate yet." Tang Ji watched Mikkelsen get into a limousine, and even patted on the door, as if I'm sure of you.

"We all know how harmful an uncontrolled mind controller with no moral bottom line is. Instead of becoming our problem one day in the future, it is better to solve this problem now." Seeing Tang Ji get into the car, Mikkelsen motioned to the driver drive.

"Here is the information. Edgar Calhoun, the new generation in power of the Calhoun family, is 42 years old, and he is in the prime of life." Mikkelsen handed Tang Ji a copy of the information: "Don't you If you know the Calhoun family, you can ask your little girlfriend, she should know how powerful this family is in shipping."

"The Calhoun family owns shares in several ocean-going logistics companies, and holds a total deadweight tonnage of more than 6000 million tons." Wu Qianying's voice immediately entered Tang Ji's ears through the headset: "The real big man, Moonlight Gold He has a dozen big toys of this level."

"Your rank in the small circle is really high." Tang Ji went through the information directly, making sure that Wu Qianying could take a screenshot of every article, and threw it aside.

"Before the proliferation of superhumans, these people were the real rulers of the Federation." Mikkelsen shrugged, obviously showing no respect for these rulers: "Perhaps the pioneers caused the world pattern to become what it is now. The cause, but it was these people who really fueled the fire and finally completed the plan."

"Compared with them, the role played by the naturalized people is like amateur players." Mikkelsen continued: "They ensured that there will be no strong politicians in the Federation again, and the big government will not appear again. It is good news for all capital to maintain a half-dead federation."

"It sounds like I should follow the list you gave me from start to finish, at least half of the problems can be solved." Tang Ji said seriously.

"If you were born 30 years earlier, you might indeed be able to solve a lot of problems, or make the situation worse." Mikkelsen smiled bitterly: "But the fact that the Federation has come to where it is today is not just caused by external forces. , I could talk about it all day and night.”

"Forget it, tell me what you want me to do." Tang Ji didn't want to understand the cause and effect of the grievances of the rich. He had never seen the so-called golden age of the Federation. To him, it was just a few pages in the history book paper, meaningless.

"He has made a lot of abnormal decisions recently. Many people think that this is another willfulness of Calhoun's power holders, because Edgar did not have a good reputation when he was young." Mikkelsen directly sent relevant information to Wu Qianying, Tang Ji of the province acted as a transfer station.

“But the events in Paris exposed the existence of jealousy, and someone in our small circle immediately recognized the abnormality of the Calhoun family and entrusted me to solve this problem.” Mikkelsen explained: “As the director of the corporate office , that is indeed my area of ​​responsibility."

"I thought your duty was to run around the world and open coffee shops everywhere." Tang Ji laughed at Mikkelsen's avatar in Neon: "I still like your blonde hair look."

"I need you to pretend to be my entourage, go meet with little Edgar, and use your ability to dispel the abnormal state on him." Mikkelsen continued to introduce: "If there are other abnormal state individuals around him, Or if you are jealous that you are nearby, you have to be responsible for keeping little Edgar safe."

"Why didn't I just kill that fat man?" Tang Ji glanced at Edgar Calhoun's photo, "It seems that if he doesn't eat in the future, he can feed twenty more African refugees."

"Because his death may lead to a large-scale war at the airport inside and outside the Federation, thousands of people will die, and the pioneers will have more opportunities to advance their plans." Mikkelsen finally said: "And My authority will also be greatly diminished, and ultimately the resources I can devote to this war will be drastically reduced."

Tang Ji looked at Mikkelsen without saying a word, obviously this reason did not impress him.

"I can guarantee that the Calhoun family will become our staunch supporters after the end, providing a lot of funds and resources." Mikkelsen continued: "The Calhoun family can clean up many naturalized people without any effort. A position achieved for a lifetime, and squeeze the capital occupied by pioneers in every direction."

Mikkelsen saw Tang Ji's expression that sounded good and said more, so he could only sigh: "What else do you want? You can mention it."

"How about 1000 billion federal currency?" Tang Ji proposed an unbelievable price, which made Mikkelsen dumbfounded.

"What do you want so much money for?" Mikkelsen frowned and looked at Tang Ji: "If we lose, the money becomes waste paper, and if we win, we don't need to think about money anymore. "

"This is a war, and an army is needed to fight a war." Tang Ji looked at Mikkelsen and began to make up nonsense seriously.

He actually doesn't want anything. Tang Ji is not short of money now, and there are more than one billion funds in his account that can be used. If he spends it personally, he can't spend it all in his life.

But if it is used for war, even if you get the 1000 billion, it is useless. The assets of military technology are far more than this amount, but is it capable of fighting a military operation of the scale of the Federation in Persia half a century ago? ?
It can't, because the entire system doesn't support wars of this magnitude anymore, and to put it mildly, it can't even find an opponent to do so.

There is no clear goal there, allowing military technology to use tanks, armored vehicles, and aircraft carriers to attack and occupy.

Its competitors are basically peers, squeezing its market with similar products with higher cost performance and cooler appearance.

More often than not, military technology will send its own armed forces to sneak attack a laboratory to obtain competitor's data, or delay the competitor's scientific research progress.

Or use their own aircraft carrier to block a certain route, so that competitors cannot obtain certain precious minerals on time, and can only purchase materials sold by military technology at high prices in the local market.

This is the true face of the war between companies. There is no Normandy, no Stalingrad, there is only Rio de Janeiro, and every city is the city of God.

After all, enterprises are the physical manifestation of capital. The profits they need will never fight a war that is doomed to lose money. A small but refined war is the best solution.

"Military technology has an army, but have you seen what it does?" Mikkelsen said after a few seconds of silence: "Do you know how military technology was established?"

Without waiting for Tangy to answer, Mikkelsen continued: "Its predecessor is almost the Federal Army Logistics Department, there is also an engineering battalion, the Delta, and the SEALs. When many people realize that the federal government is going to collapse, they think Keep the best of the Union Army."

"But you see it now, it's been assimilated by capital, and those things that wanted to be preserved have disappeared." Mikkelsen closed his eyes, as if recalling the past: "And even if they are preserved, there is such a What's the use of facing a superhuman like you if there is an army that still has the will to fight?"
