From ship girl to machine god

Moreover, the purpose of Jade Bird and the Cyberpunk team is to seek money, not to confront the company head-on now.

"Move quickly, they are already sending a distress signal. Although I intercepted it, you'd better resolve the battle as soon as possible." Jade Bird sent reminders and urgings through the team channel.

At this time, Mann and Pila had also rushed out from the other side of the convoy, quickly taking care of the second escort vehicle, and cooperated with Rebecca and Dorio to clean up the security personnel of the convoy.

Hearing Blue Bird's urging, Mann stopped delaying, showed the hand cannon on his arm, and blasted the biotechnology security personnel who were still resisting with one shot.

Rebecca and Dorio also rushed over at this time, and quickly and accurately shot all the biotech security guards who dared to show up.

Although the weapons and equipment provided by Biotechnology to the security personnel are more than one level better than the mercenaries of Night City, under the sneak attack and repeated blows, even though these security personnel have subcutaneous armor, they have good defense. The weapons were not bad either, but they were still killed one by one.

Compared with the various training tasks that Blue Bird arranged for the Cyberpunk team, this biotechnology team did not bring them any pressure or trouble.

Even Sasha, the hacker, didn't even play his part and the battle ended.

After all, they won't hide in the blind spot under the car and throw tracking grenades at them, nor will they pretend to be dead and wait for you to approach and then use the waist of the mantis knife, nor will they install sentry guns and anti-infantry mines in the compartment of the truck.

Not to mention, this is just a regular transport fleet. Although Biotechnology is equipped with three vehicles of security, they are only at the level of civilian security.

Both the combat literacy and combat skills of the veterans simulated by the data in the Jade Bird test are far behind.

After getting rid of the last security guard who was still sending out distress signals before his death, the Cyberpunk team quickly checked the entire convoy to ensure that there were no survivors and no hidden signaling devices before they were ready to receive this time's message. reward.

"Drive the two trucks away, blow up the remaining three vehicles, and meet at the predetermined location." Mann quickly gave instructions in the team channel, but he himself had already opened the cab of a truck and was about to die. After dragging out the driver's body, he and Pyrrha climbed up and started the vehicle again, heading towards their predetermined location.

The same goes for Rebecca and Dorio on the other side, but they took the same route, and Rebecca also threw a delay grenade on each of the three vehicles that were dealt with. After they were far away, they would Blast all three cars into a pile of junk.

When Qingniao saw that they had successfully completed the task, he nodded with satisfaction, knocked on the wall of his car, and motioned to the driver to drive.

"You performed well this time and acted smoothly. However, Sasha's movements were still a little slow. If Nightwing hadn't opened an electronic barrier to block all communications, they would still have had a chance to send out a distress signal." As the car body swayed, Qingniao commented on their action this time: "So don't be complacent. This convoy is just a transport convoy. Compared with the company's real security force, they are actually very weak. Don't rob a car because of it." Just be proud and complacent.”

"I know the boss, do you want to come over and join us?" Mann asked Jade Bird while driving.

Glancing at Sasha who had exited the Internet mode, Jade Bird thought for a while and then said: "No, Sasha and I will go directly back to the city. After you finish handling the goods, come to me in the next life. I'll go talk to Rogge." There is a problem with the subsequent processing of this batch of goods.”

At this point, Jade Bird seemed to feel that he had pushed the Cyberpunk team too hard during this period, so he thought about it and said: "This order has made more than we expected. You can relax and have a rest and give yourself some time." The equipment on my body has been updated."

Chapter 15 Get rich overnight

When Mann and others cleaned up their messes, drove the two hijacked trucks to a safe place, counted the goods on the trucks, and then went into the city to the Afterlife Bar, Jade Bird had already chatted with Rogge, and Sa Sha stayed in a box waiting for them.

Let the others join Sasha, while Mann himself came to the box where Bluebird and Rogge were.

"Boss, that batch of goods has been processed. Here is the cargo list. It can be delivered at any time." Mann handed a shipping list that came with the biotechnology vehicle to Jade Bird's hands in as serious a manner as possible. Everything you do makes you look professional.

This was in front of Rogge. Faced with the middleman queen of Night City, even if Mann was not looking at the fanaticism of an idol, he would still make himself appear more shrewd and capable in order to gain a good impression from Rogge.

When Jade Bird looked down at the shipping list, Rogge was certainly looking at Mann.

However, Yiluoge's city will not show anything on his face. He just picked up the wine glass, looked at the blue bird and asked: "Little girl, what did you grab this time?"

"There aren't many things. One truck contains biotechnology crop seeds, including a batch of newly launched anti-transpiration crops. Other than that, they are used to produce pure wheat seeds." Jade Bird flipped through the shipping list in his hand. , and threw it directly to Rogge: "The other car is a prosthetic body produced by some biotechnology. They are all second- and third-generation products. They are popular products on the market. Their total value is not high. The only medical cabin that is worth a little bit is mine. Not planning to sell.”

Rogge took the cargo list from Blue Bird's hand, flipped through it casually, and put it on the coffee table without seeming to care.

"The current market price of the seeds in these two trucks is about 15 to 24 euros. The specific price depends on the recent market conditions." Rogge picked up the wine glass again, with a little exploration and playfulness in his eyes: "It's you. There are a lot of valuable things in this second truck. If you are not in a hurry to get money for that batch of prosthetics, I will help you find a reliable prosthetic doctor to sell them. They can be sold for about 30. If you are in a hurry, you can only 20.

Apart from these, the most valuable thing here is this medical cabin. Although it is a basic battlefield emergency medical cabin, the market price is about 18 euros. If you are willing to sell it, you can sell it for about 30. Wan, do you really not think about it? "

"In other words, the total income from this order is probably between 40 and 60 euros? Then let's calculate it based on the total price of 50 euros. [-]% is yours, and the rest should be paid in cash or deducted in kind?" Jade Bird She ignored Rogge and just asked her how to settle the order.

Faced with Jade Bird's attitude, Rogge just glanced at Mann who was standing aside, noticed that his face was not tense with excitement, and tested Jade Bird again: "Even the best mercenary in the next life can't make enough money in a year. At 30 euros, do you really no longer think about it?”

Rogge's words are not an exaggeration. Several hundred thousand euros may not sound like a lot, but as long as you think about the prices in Night City, these 30 euros will suddenly become astonishing.

You must know that in the original game plot, V worked as the head of the intelligence department for Arasaka. He worked hard for several years and only managed to save more than 8 euros. A Sword of the Lady of the Lake priced at 15 euros is a common sight for ordinary people in Night City. 52 times your lifetime income.

One can imagine how huge a sum of money 50 euros is.

Several members of the Cyberpunk team had some small savings, but the sum of all their savings might not be as large as the difference in price fluctuations when Jade Bird and Rogge negotiated the price.

How could this not make Mann feel excited?

But even though they made this deal so easily, the water inside is still very deep.

It is not difficult for ordinary mercenaries to get rid of EMP mines and obtain information on biotechnology convoys. It is not even a problem to set up traps to ambush them and then kill the security guards escorting them.

After all, in the original game plot, the Whirlpool Gang was able to rob a military technology convoy, which shows that the threshold for this kind of thing is not that high.

But to be able to hold down the entire security team like the Blue Bird so that they cannot send out distress signals, and also to hold down drones that may counterattack at critical moments, this requires at least one hacker with a decent level in the team configuration.

And this is enough to eliminate more than [-]% of the mercenaries in Night City and more than half of the hackers who are not very good at it.

However, just being able to successfully rob the company's fleet is not the key. Just seeing that the group of cyborg transformation maniacs from the Uzumaki Gang can do this kind of thing, you know that no one has done the same thing.

But their fate also shows that robbing the company's fleet involves great risks.

First of all, the things the Whirlpool Gang stole from military technology could not be shipped at all, and most of them were used to arm their own lair.

This shows that they do not have their own shipping channels, and the stolen goods cannot be cashed in.

The only shortcut they sold attracted V, the God of Death, and Military Technology itself also smelled the smell and came to kill them.

Needless to say what happened next, the Uzumaki Gang's stronghold was taken away, and the entire gang also lost the food factory, an important source of income.

It can be seen that it is easy to hijack a car, but it is not so easy to ship goods, especially safe goods.

If it weren't for Jade Bird's connection with Rogge, and the Cyberpunk team would have shipped such a large amount of goods themselves, it wouldn't have taken three days of biotechnology to find them by smell, and then... the Yan family would be rich and noble.

As for finding other middlemen, it's not impossible, but there are so many middlemen in Night City, and not many are capable of buying these two trucks.

Not to mention routine operations such as middlemen lowering prices and increasing profits during the shipping process.

At that time, if you can say "Why is it only [-]%", the answer will be "[-]% is someone else's".

This can be seen just by watching V and Dexter discuss the deal of stealing chips. The two guys who took great risks to steal the chips can only get how much they get.

As for V being killed and silenced by Dexter in the end when things got messed up, it is even less unusual. It is quite normal for a middleman to trap a mercenary to death.

This is why Rogge is the toughest middleman in Night City, and the next life is the best place for business discussions in Night City.

Because here, your safety is at least guaranteed, and you don’t have to worry about being hacked.

However, Jade Bird was not impressed by Rogge. She just continued to shake her head and said: "I will keep this medical cabin for myself. It's only 30. I can make it back by robbing a company fleet next time."

Speaking of this, Jade Bird deliberately glanced at Rogge and teased her: "Do you doubt my strength and think I can't rob the company's fleet again?"

Chapter No.16 Dividing Money and Celebrating Success

Jade Bird finally negotiated the price of the goods with Rogge, and then returned to the box where the Cyberpunk team was with Mann.

"The total price of this batch of goods is 50 euros, and Rogge will share 15%, that is, 35 is hers, and the remaining 35 is ours." Jade Bird couldn't bear it when he mentioned this huge remuneration. The host smiled a little: "The 24 euros will be divided into 11-[-] points as agreed in advance. I will get [-] euros, and you can get [-] euros."

"Thank you, boss!" "Boss, you are such a generous boss!" Upon hearing that they could get a huge sum of 11 euros, the members of the Cyberpunk team all thanked Jade Bird and cheered.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire box suddenly became very lively.

Qingniao waved his hand and signaled everyone to calm down before continuing: "There is actually a medical cabin in the cargo worth 30, but I wanted it myself, so I didn't let Rogge sell it, so I spent 24 of my [-]. , count as your compensation.

In other words, you can get 15 euros in compensation for this deal. If anyone has any objections to this, you can raise them now. "

After saying that, Qingniao turned his gaze to everyone, waiting for their reactions and answers.

In Jade Bird's opinion, he did this somewhat without considering the feelings of the members of the Cyberpunk team.

After all, most of them may not be able to save so much money in a lifetime for a medical cabin worth 30 yuan.

However, to Jade Bird's expectation, the members of the Cyberpunk team just looked at each other and then turned their attention to Mann.

As the leader of the team, Mann easily understood what everyone meant, so he looked at Jade Bird and replied to her: "Boss, you are worrying too much. Being able to get such a large amount of money is already a big deal for us." The rewards are unimaginable.

Moreover, this business is only possible because of you, the boss, and you are our boss. How to handle this business is your right as the boss, so you don’t have to have any other ideas about it. . "

If it were the old Mann, he would naturally not be able to say these words.

After all, a veteran turned mercenary does not need to use such sophisticated things, nor does he need to consider these additional things.

But as the entire Cyberpunk team was absorbed by Blue Bird, many things also changed.

In order to adapt to this change, even a gangster like Mann had to consider how to improve himself.

After all, the various trainings that Jade Bird gave them before did not require low overall quality of the personnel themselves. If they were too uneducated, they would not be able to pass those tests and trainings.

Moreover, the current Cyberpunk team follows Jade Bird to take over work from Rogge in the next life. Mann feels that he should improve his level to avoid losing face to Jade Bird.

In fact, this can be regarded as the unconfidence generated by Mann and the Cyberpunk team when they were suddenly promoted to a position they had not originally expected.

After all, the names of Afterlife, Rogge, and Company were all out of reach for them in the past, and they were really not something they could touch.

But now they are sitting in the box in the next life, discussing how to divide the gains from this business.

Naturally, Mann hopes to improve himself in all aspects so that he can be worthy of his current status.

In addition to the most important strength as a mercenary, Mann felt that he still needed to improve his quality to some extent.

However, Mann didn't like the hypocrisy of the company dog, so he asked Sasha to search for some information about Eastern etiquette and culture on the Internet.

Because he remembered that during a previous chat, Qingniao said that he was an Oriental, and he should be like his boss in this regard.

"Since you all said so, let's do it. Anyway, it's just this one order. There will be a life like this waiting for you in the future, so be prepared." Qingniao shook his head indifferently, but did not forget to remind him. Said: "Although I am not afraid of biotechnology's retaliation, you should still keep a low profile and not be too ostentatious.

You don’t have to worry about Rogge, she won’t leak any information about this business, so she is keeping a low profile during this period to upgrade her prosthetics and equipment. "

After saying that, Qingniao also looked at Mann and said to him: "I have other things to do during this time, so you can go and pick up a few jobs according to your usual habits, and keep everything as you usually do to avoid attracting the attention of biotechnology. "

"I understand the boss, and I know what to do." Mann nodded, indicating that he understood what Blue Bird meant.

Jade Bird didn't say anything else. He just picked up the wine glass on the table, looked at the people in the Cyberpunk team in front of him, and smiled: "Then let's relax and celebrate today. All the expenses will be on my account."

After saying that, the blue bird drank all the wine in the cup.

The rest of the Cyberpunk team also started making noise.

Pila, who did not know whether to live or die, even brought a wine bottle to Jade Bird to fight for wine, pretending to want to get Jade Bird drunk.

Naturally, Blue Bird refused to accept anyone who came, and directly picked up the wine bottle as well.

Although she looks like a little girl, Blue Bird is actually a ship girl, and she wants to get the ship girl drunk with wine...

Other bluebirds don't know this, but to her, even industrial alcohol is just water.

——————After a night of party——————

When the sun shone on the blue bird's face, the little girl opened her eyes and looked at the sunlight coming in from the window. She couldn't help but stretched and sat up from the bed.
