Chapter 1931 HotCake


    It was already 5 AM, and the sun had already adorned the sky with its golden hues. The dawn invited the splendidnds, roads, buildings, pastures and space, forming a beautiful arc in the distance. Ah yes, the morning was bright and hot with a lot of stagnant air. However, this did not deter the determined from getting what they want. "Dammit! Taxi, taxi! Stop! If I get there toote, I won''t get my new cell phone! At this rate, won''t all the good ones be gone?"


    "Ahhhh! Why? Why can I only see but not use? No! No! We must get our empires to be UN nations!" "Exactly! I too want a cellphone! Why must I go through the torture of seeing people get their own but I can''t?" "Dad! Dad! Hurry up! I must get the Motor RAZR flip phone! Just look at its cool design?" "Not me! I want the one called B-Nokia 3310! The one that doesn''t have an antenna." "No way! So boring! I want the B-Nokia 2000 that has a small antenna attached not to it." "Hmph! You menck vision! Obviously, the B-ckberry Bold 9000 is thergest and the most stylish. It''s like aputer, superrge with many buttons on the lower part. What girl doesn''t like such a big thing in her hand?" "Tsk… I agree with you on the B-ckberry Bold 9000 being one of the best, but if you want to say it''s number 1, then you are wrong! Obviously, the ckberry Torch 9800 is the best! Although it''s smaller than the first ckberry model, it is still bigger than the other phones and is also a Slider Phone too!" "Yes, yes, yes! It''s button keypad is hidden behind the giant screen. And when you want to type, you just slide the screen up!.So cool!"


    "No! Motor RAZR flip phone is the best!"


    "You''re wrong, it''s the antenna B-Nokia 3310!"


    "impossible! The simple B-Nokia 2000 wins!" "B-BLACKBERRY Bold 9000!"


    "B-BLACKBERRY Torch 9800!"

    ….


    One by one, several people got into heated arguments whenmunicating to the closest stores around Baymard. This Phenomenon didn''t just happen in the Capital city, but in all other Baymardian territories too!


    Launch days like these were always on Saturdays when most people were off.


    And at this very moment, several foreigners from non-treaty empires were goingpletely crazy when watching the chaos. They weren''t crazy from annoyance, but crazy from jealousy! They gathered around like shrewd, grumbling and cursing to the skies at their misfortunes. "What does Baymard mean by doing this? This is discrimination, and I won''t stand for it!" "Yes! Exactly!" Several people mmed the first hard on the table when drinking tea in the morning. Some 24 hour areas were open for business, allowing them to crowd around in preparation to storm the stores. They didn''t believe that if they came altogether in arge crowd, Baymard would still turn them down. Discrimination! Favoritism! Unjustness! Many people were shouting and chanting slurs until their voices became strained. Here was how it was announced: — For Baymardians, they could get phones at Zero-Bays with 12 or 24 month contracts, or they could buy the devices upfront and outright. — For people from UN empires, they can get phones with a minimum down payment of 5% and then hop onto a 12 to 24 month contract. Of course, they too could buy out their phones. Again, they will only be allowed to take these Cellphones out of Baymard if they buy it upright. Once in a contract, and about to leave the empire, they must drop the phones in one of the many dropping destinations. Note that unless the phone is bought outright, it still belongs to the phonepanies. —But for people from Non-treaty signed empires… Sorry, they won''t be getting these cellphones at all. That''s right. They don''t qualify as eligible to have these cellphones. If they just get a cellphone, they need 3 people to co-sign for it.And 2 out of these 3 people must be Baymardians. Thest can be a person from a UN empire. If they are approved, they will then get 50% down payment contracts. They too will have to leave their phones in Baymard when going out, unless the phone is bought outright. That being said, if there are any spies or any crimes involving this phone given to a non-UN person, those who co-signed will be in serious trouble. .


    The rules were as clear as day. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    The use stated over the adverts and the fine lines were quite clear which made several people outright refuse to co-sign for non-treaty UN people they didn''t know well enough. Forget about it! Who knows what you''re truly up to behind closed doors? Over 97% of Non-treaty people found that they couldn''t get others to sign for them. Another us is that. A Baymardian is only allowed to sign for a max of 3 people per 3 years, while a UN person can only Co-sign for 1 person every 3 years. So when Non-treaty people kept asking around, this was the answer they mostly got. "Sorry, I''ve already agreed to co-sign for my buddy, his wife and his kid." "Sorry, you know my inws have a sister married out in xxxx. That empire is not a UN empire and as a Caronian, I can only Co-sign for 1 person every 3 years." Suddenly, the Baymardians and people from Treaty-signed empires found that they became hotcakes.


    People were also warned that if they found out that their phones are missing, they must report the matter immediately. How their phones will get found and retrieved and still a mystery to them. All in all, everyone knew the rules and swore to uphold their end of the bargain lest it''s then who gets into trouble. Do they truly know the people they are co-signing for?


    Perhaps by the end of this year, only 5% of Non-treaty people will seed in getting phones. After all, even if one person agrees to co-sign, you still need 2 more people to do the job. As for whether Landon was afraid that people will steal his cellphone technology once they leave Baymard with them, the answer was obviously -- NO.
