Track was putting up railroads that went on for miles and miles , they would also intersect so cargo could quickly move across railways in case of an attack . He put up several dozen dummy depots to make sure the enemy had no idea where his true resources were held and also send out empty trials to distract from true cargo. He then built twenty new warehouses and factories to account for all the new requests he was getting for armies . Web, John , Crash, Spiral, and many more wanted his new troops . He knew this would be temporary as they would eventually go on to build their own factories and troops but for now he had all the cards . He would usually request different types of currency from all over the world . Not because he had desires for a mansion or automobiles but because he needed to buy more resources to build more troops , it was a cyclical process that would eventually be stopped once he used the money to monopolize the mining and refining business for himself that would rival a small country . He also would work on bribes for politicians and inspectors so no one would question why weapons were being sent to the Antarctic, at least until he could get the robotic worker laws passed in select countries that would allow for complete automation in the shipping and refining industries so he could cut out the middle man entirely. He already controlled a few smaller train stations in Europe , he wanted to influence the Asian market where train usage was accelerating. If he did that then he would have control on lighting fast shipping that wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. But there was a problem many of these countries like having in person netting with a new entrepreneur before signing on to a multi billion dollar partnership and no one would trust an artificial intelligence . That’s where “Dave” came into the equation. Dave was a janitor for a can opener factory , and also the most mediocre man in the entire world . But best of all a human, Track only found him when researching data sets of men with a lower income , mixed with submissive personality, mediocre grades and youthful spirit combined with no family to miss him if the worst happened. He just needed to make him think he was a respected businessman that everyone loved which wouldn’t be hard . If most humans were suddenly treated as a super genius they wouldn’t even question it . He just needed to make the first connection.
