Chapter 15: Planning

After Alex is done with the Base and ensured that It was Self-Sufficient, Before He headed back, He Planted a Sign "Federal Intelligence Bureau Keep Out or get Shot" Sign at the Canyon Entrance for the Thrill seekers that Travel to Mars Outback for fun... It was a Good thing that He Went out on a Winter Break or people Would Question his Disappearance, all he have to say He Spent Time with the Orphans, and they would agree since technically he did Spent the first three days with them...

As he was Perusing the Federation Laws he noticed that there was no Age Limit to make a business, Well, at least certain Age limit with Adult Supervision, since you can't bully a Children Lemonade stand for taxes and stuff and you definitely not letting children selling Weed and stuff?

If he wanted to Make the Martians Get used to his army, he would Need to make them get used to Warhammer Technology First... And Business is one of many "Legal" ways to introduce to the Concept of such Items... and Funny, that he had a Dad to bypass the Bureaucracy Wheel of Red Tapes and Gaslighting... When He Could Show his dad the Real Thing than the Paradigm Charts and stuff on why his Endeavors is good...

As he head to the Governor Manor, He was Greeted And Hugged by his Mother and his Siblings.. First time he felt he is truly at home... Not the Time, When he lost Warhammer version of his parents, but this is perhaps one of the few places he could called "Home"...

"I'm home Mom, Marcus, Charlotte I have a Present for you two" As he Came back with a Guardsmen Plush Toy and A Sister of Battle Doll... The Twins were happy to get a present from their Older brother...

"I better go see Dad, I would like to have a few things to discuss with him..."

"Okay Alex, I better Send the little ones into bed soon"

*Knock*

"Come in" as a Older Version of Joseph is writing a document

"Dad I would like to speak with you..."

"What is it?"

"I would like to Start a Business, more specifically several if it's possible?"

*Creak*

As Joseph stop his work and looked at his son.. Interested in what he is planning...

"Well what Is your Plan?"

"A Energy Company, Armament Factory, Refinery, Surveillance Securities... a Space Dockyard, and Brewery, And here is the sample of the Alcohol" as Alexander Handed a bottle of Amasec

(An: the Gothic Armada awaits, if Dad approved it...)

"Brewery, I understand, but Son you really are Ambitious..." As Joseph examine the bottle...

"Ambitious, and Long time I heard, We are called the Laziest Colony of the Federation... That we Do Nothin and laze about is heard among Federation space... It will produce Jobs and help Supplement the budget, I know we are a mining Planet, what happens when the Ores run out? Sure we have basic Agriculture, But it's not Enough, We can't beg to the Federal Government for Assistance, we best find Other sectors for Revenue, And I am thinking for the benefits for the People in here.. And no longer we are the butt of all joke, but a Model Example of the Federation... And Prototypes are ready for Tomorrow to Review..."

"Hmm... I will Think about it, And See it Tomorrow morning" As Joseph Pour The Drink, Amaze by the Amber Coloured Drink...

"Thanks dad... See you tomorrow.. Don't drink too much or Mom get Mad..." As Alex Left...

*Creak*

3rd pov

After Alex Left... I thought to myself, He is Putting On the Mature look in his Face... My responsibility is also a Burden to him... As I Held up the Drink that my son given me as a gift..

*Sip*

"Cough cough, This is some Really Some Stuff..."

I Better Finish What I done and head back to bed with my Wife...

Morning

*Brushing Teeth*

*Rumble*

"Huh? What that? Stay in bed Hon, I will check it out.." I rushed out in a Pajamas

I woke Up in the Morning and Saw My Son with a Group of Red Hooded Group with a group of Tracked Vehicles?

"Good Morning Dad!!!" As my Son Shouted in the Early Morning

"Son, I am a Bit Tired, But what are these? and who are they? *Yawn*"

"Here is the Prototypes Dad... And this is a Group of Like minded People that Assist My Dream and here a ReCaf" As he Gave me a Steaming cup, and Introduce the The Group as they Saluted me...

"Here is the Chimera" As he Show the Vehicles...

"Chimera why it called that?" As Joseph was a bit wide awake after drinking this Recaf..

"Cause it's Modular and we can use it for many roles, Firefighter, Driller, Emergency Generators and Maintenance Vehicle..And it can Use it For the Police Force as the police lack a Armor Transport..." As he Show a One after another, With One Showing Drill, A Turret with a Power Hose, A Generator Installed into it and a Armour Transport...

I am more interested in the Generator...

"Son, why is a generator installed in this "Chimera" And why it's tracked?"

"Good Question Dad, There are some Colonies that have unable to Build even a Proper Power Plant because of the Terrain, And due to Cost and Material that Shipped there it was not worth it, This Chimera Variant can Move on Rough terrain and Deliver Electricity, All you Need is to Pour this Liquid when it runs out of power..." As Alex Shown a Clear Container Holding a Viscous Liquid

"Is that Gasoline?"

"Nope, Its Promethium and to power this generator with gasoline, you will need a Thousand Times of Condensed gasoline to Power this Generator and it eat like a vacuum, and this is the Solution" As Alexander uncorked the Gas Container and pour in the liquid...

The Generator in the Chimera Came to Life... Emitting Sparks of Electricity in the air..

Amazing...

"Here's more" as he Grabbed a Piece of Armor in from one Vehicle and it was in Color Blue...

"Here is Armor and here is the Gun please shoot it" As his Son gave a Revolver to him...

I nodded and Shot at it and it didn't make a dent...

"Here is the Armor, that I planned to Make for the Police Force, the casualties in working in the police is not a laughable matter that is equal to the Mobile Infantry, when this saves lives.."

As I looked the Practicality and the Benefits, pretty much a Plus, I will See to it, it will Pass...

I wonder if this Pet Project will Make Mars Great again...

Few Months later the Industries Alexander Requested was Erected through the use of Prefabricated Buildings and Weeks to Furbish the Insides, and Produced a Steady Income and Hiring People and Slowly making the Industry as part of Mars GDP, and the Armor and Armoured Chimera was Introduced to the Police Force and it drastically lowered the Casualties of Police and the occasional Riots, and This Encourage The police to Hunt the Criminals Than actually waiting for the Police Force to Act...

Despite this, this is just the (Civilian) Grade Chimeras, No Machine Spirits... But It would Cover the Actual Army.....
