The young gentleman bidder, a Romanian vacationing in West Quig, smiles politely at the new bidder as he extracts his wallet from his coat and takes a quick look in it. The smile still plastered on his tan face as he places the wallet back in its original position, the Romanian raises a finger in the auctioneer’s direction and raises his voice, so as to be loud and clear. “450,000 U.S. dollars for the soda pop factory,” he says, his voice young and vibrant.

"What!? Beat! How can this be!" wailed the CEO of Gyrus Incorporated.

--edit--

A man walks in, and whispered into his ear - Possessed bunnies has confirmed the order, taken the factory plans, and returned tot heir country. You can stop acting now.

"Oh, good," said the CEO, standing up and rubbing his throat. It hurt from all the wailing. "Now I can point at laugh."

**My men arrive at the Quiqsi Co-operations main office. They collect the plans and make arrangements for the workers to be trasported and for stylish bungalows to be built for them to live in. The money is then handed over to our correspondant, a Mr. Coke.

No, it is you, sir, that is completely screwed. Zoogiedom's own soda sales industry is doing very well and doesn't need to acquire this company. We tried, but didn't. No big deal.

You, on the other hand, paid a quarter of a million for a single soda production factory - worth six to eight million at most. On the other hand, you have benefitted by ally West Quiq greatly...and screwed yourself over.

Have a nice day. 8)
