If education is also a commodity, then people have to consider whether it’s worth it.
Lille thought for a mont: "I don’t wish to make money from this."
[Illuminati: Okay, I understand.]
Ryan raised his hand again: "The Valentino Gang wants to add so religious courses, they implied if their demand isn’t t, they..."
"They’re dead, if they don’t want to work, they can get lost."
Lille shook his head.
The Valentino Gang is very eager to integrate their religious beliefs and cultural education into the local education of Night City.
For what?
Of course, to embed their people, just like how many Haywood people were in the NCPD before, eventually they will let Valentino have influence both above and below the surface due to such wondrous connections.
Perhaps the Father truly believes people need faith, but his thinking must have inertia, an inertia that is "expanding influence, forming factions."
[Illuminati: A great decision, religion, national culture, and ethnic culture are not conducive to the developnt of Night City.]
[Illuminati: However, this will cause more financial deficits for Night City, but I’ve found a place to make up for it:]
[Illuminati: I notice the Wanderer Clan is performing very well in the aspects of "unity" and "collaboration," with strong family values and anti-corporate sentint.]
[Illuminati: I observed the workers in Saint Domingo are quite adept in "work skills" and "industrial production stress resistance," due to previous poor living conditions, their anti-corporate sentint has surged over two years.]
[Illuminati: Both groups possess very strong anti-corporate psychology, and due to the improvent from hell to rely difficult living quality, they greatly respect you and accept replacing wages with basic living materials...]
[Illuminati: They are an excellent choice.]
This ti Perares raised his hand: "Um... but the conflicts between them are also severe, the Six Street Gang repeatedly stated outsiders should not take local jobs, Adkaduo... are honest, but the Wanderer Clan has too many people and is too chaotic."
Lille turned his head: "It’s a transaction: Night City provides them with free education, based on their abilities invested into this plan, we’ll also offer so local prosthetics for standardization to facilitate managent.
If soone feels their job opportunity is being taken and Night City hasn’t given him a good living...
He can get lost, but if he disrupts production..."
Perares silently shut his mouth, silently filling in what Lille wanted to say: Then he can go die.
Very straightforward and brutish.
[Illuminati: To provide them with basic materials for industrial production, we need to continue building apartnts and expanding industries like daily consur goods, dical supplies, food... these basic industries.]
[Illuminati: This might pose so problems, let’s first discuss what doesn’t: I noticed you once initiated a very advanced artificial blood plasma technology and have a very comprehensive immunosuppressant production line.]
[Illuminati: Westbrook has many who can engage in dical services, investing in dical production lines and daily consur goods factories.]
"Um." Ryan raised his hand again, "Though I mostly know the answer, I still have to say, the Tiger Claw Gang wants to develop the entertainnt industry, the Mox Gang believes their Sex Doll comrades’ labor isn’t protected..."
Lille glanced at Ryan: "You ask knowing the answer? If it disrupts production, kill them, I’ll do it myself."
"But Westbrook’s entertainnt industry is very developed, if it’s abruptly cut off, unemploynt rate..."
Lille seed speechless: "Are you serious? The high unemploynt rate is due to many daring and outspoken people sneaking in, a bunch of body-selling scums losing jobs is just losing jobs, do you want to issue so sort of street safety regulations for them?
The Tiger Claw gang is also a bunch of brainless idiots, if the entertainnt industry expands, who knows if so things will recklessly happen again? The more important thing is, I need people to pave the way for this plan, understand?"
[Illuminati: A very decisive judgnt, once each industry starts making money, it ans people’s energy and desires are converging toward it, this phenonon inversely tilts social resources toward it, this is the free market.]
[Illuminati: But we cannot accept such waste.]
If people can make money by selling their bodies and money can achieve anything, people will study the technology of selling bodies for achieving anything.
Night City now must embark on an independent road, even a cent of investnt in this field is wasteful.
Similarly for drug use, overly exciting Black Superdreams, etc.
So Lille continued: "In future, those playing with Sex Dolls, selling powder, working in the trade... none will be protected, and I want the NCPD to investigate, if found, throw them in jail,
If the jail is overcrowded, let them leave Night City, the sea looks spacious, if the circumstances are severe like coercing others, then directly execute them..."
Perares quietly spoke: "In this case, won’t the NCPD be a bit too reckless, you know our city’s police..."
Lille quickly replied: "If there are any omissions or mistakes, I’ll execute that lawless officer, you can spread the word.
If soone claims this is authoritarianism—yes, this is indeed authoritarianism, we are at war, Night City is at war, why am I giving orders here because no one can beat , and I’ve given many a new life they’ve found acceptable.
Those who remain are to take on corporations, tell those discontented they can leave, if they don’t leave and make trouble, make them rember, I’m a terrorist, I’ll personally co to blow their brains out.
No arresting, detaining, prosecuting, trial... only the final result, I’ll directly enforce, I’ll directly execute them."
While all politicians still consider whether this is inappropriate, Kurt Hansen, is secretly feeling pleased.
So ecstatic, truly ecstatic.
When he used to work in New Arica and Military Technology, he often had to face those stupid legislators’ stupid questions, like how this year’s military budget is so damn high, and we still have to spend money to subsidize our Arican citizens’ lives.
Turns out that legislator then used the subsidy money to buy cannabis products, issued it to the masses as dical insurance.
A large part consists of these dogfucking "entertainnt industry workers."
They fight outside, while the rear ensures selling freedom and health, it’s just too foolish.
Maybe they know the sworn New Arica is a huge collection of lies, and know their behavior isn’t that noble, but think of this situation, still feel it’s fucked up.
War should be like this, unscrupulous, disregarding consequences.
Two politicians fell silent, a military commander secretly pleased.
Lark, an intelligent yet socially awkward hacker, quietly said:
"Isn’t this a bit too radical? I an, these people are..."
"It’s certainly radical." Lille shook his head, "Over 10% of people in Night City work in such jobs, over 60% use addictive drugs, the industry behind is already very large, but why should I compromise?
If soone disagrees, they can try to resist a bit, but don’t forget I’m a terrorist, if I say kill, I truly will kill."
Why Lark asks so? Because she was just a kid from an ordinary family, mixing in street life, dark networks, knowing so disreputable people.
In her mind, Sex Doll industry and alike aren’t truly scum, mild drug use doesn’t make one bad.
This is a very direct perception and thought, unfortunately, Lille’s answer is also very direct, direct to the point where she couldn’t ask anything, open her mouth only to close it.
Certainly, not to ntion V and Jack, those two reckless and capable super n, not even noting Lille’s own inexplicable aura of fear and countless tactics...
This small room doesn’t even know how many wandering AIs it contains, this is proof of power.
Conversely, having such power, yet leaving those people with a path in dical careers, is already very conscientious, despite how it might require people to struggle fiercely to get.
[Illuminati: Actually I believe Westbrook’s people can undergo so hacker training to expand job opportunities... but this is not urgent for now.]
[Illuminati: We need to hold on here first, let’s discuss basic resource issues, first the food issue.]
[Illuminati: We’re using basic supplies to offset wages, thus we need to support many people, Night City can rely on authoritarian control for food distribution, but the underlying shortage is unresolved.]
[Illuminati: It’s fatal.]
Lille: "We’ll farm here."
Everyone just felt their ears had a problem—
Farm in Night City?
