" It makes me laugh that they call themselves that " " What ? " asked Monroe " The Merchants of New Venice "...replied Scots " Why ? " " Think about it you dumbass...Merchants are traders, honest people who make a living buying and selling stuff...legit.These guys buy the Ore from the scabbers then sell it on the black market..thats when people suffer. " why ?" " Why ?..think about it..the Ore is poisen, that's why this place was shut down all those years ago. Turns out the stuff they mined here was, well let's just say...the people who used it are feeding the worms now. It was lethal when mixed in the injectors of all those fancy ships the rich bitches ran around Calisto in... ten minutes on high gas and the stuff turned to vapour,like the ships that ran it...just took the Ore company and the top brass about ten years to admit it...once they made their millions that is.Still, the side effects of the pure Ore extraction are what the people want these days...best damn high this side of the twin Moons man..So these guys are on the payroll of the gloms who send those ships here and they buy it from the scabbers, who die mining it, then run the ships out to Calisto and sell it on the black to the richies ...who die using it." So thats why it makes me laugh " " so they are not real merchants then ? " said Monroe " You really are a dumbass " said Scots " come on before someone spots us " Cheers for the peek..please ZOOM for details and Scots and Monroe !!!
