Chapter 110: Finalizing

• Lisa and the East River Militia Council discussed several things pertaining to how they would pay for the electricity. At the moment there was hardly any Solid or Paper money in the ERMs possession, and absolutely to transfer money Digitally with implanted chips. They had yet to conduct trade with Mr. Cline and get any bit of income either, which only add more to their plight. Lisa originally intended that for the first three months of electricity being provided, that there would be no charge and the ERM agreed. She understood that things were definitely tight and would be helpful to them as a sign of good faith and partnership. Naturally, it would greatly be beneficial to her in the long haul.
• The next issue discussed was how to bring the electricity into the town. Neither side had any power lines or the personnel capable of building any. Lisa had also thought on this issue several times before and deducted that buying power lines would be their only option. She offered to pay for the lines as long as the ERM provided the manpower. At least until she put together her own crews to manage the work. To this the ERM also agreed with. Many people in town had no jobs anyway and needed them badly.
• Things were going smoothly with the negotiations by the time nights darkness started to creep into the building. Both Lisa and the ERM Council agreed to pick things up in the morning. Lisa was getting her notes and papers back into her coffin when Nathan, Gillian and Mrs. Smithy approached her.
