More Than Business

Ves seriously considered Tyana Delcrost's offer.

He did not allow his emotions and impulses to dictate his decisions. The stakes were too high for that today. This was why he ignored the barbs and condescension from the CEO of ZZR Industries and seriously thought about the pros and cons of accepting this offer.

ZZR offered to solve the Larkinson Clan's greatest problem, which was its inability to purchase the raw materials and other goods needed to keep a fleet numbering 10 capital ships and dozens of sub-capital ships in working condition.

The entire point of setting up a trade consortium and trying to lure Murphy & Sons to his camp was to solve this problem.

Compared to trying to outbid his other two competitors and trying to work something out after that, it was a lot easier and more direct to simply accept ZZR's naked bribe and be done with the entire issue.
