Faye Yardley immediately redeemed 10 Forced Merger Cards, spending 500,000 points.
There was no other way. Veridia was a populous nation, and one card could only merge twenty million people. Ten cards would only create ten merged zones of twenty million people each.
There was only so much she, a single woman, could do. Although she had enough points to redeem more, who could say she didn't have other things she wanted for herself?
Faye Yardley admitted to herself that she wasn't the self-sacrificing type, unable to prioritize the greater good in every situation.
"Mr. Pierce, here. If you want to redeem anything else, you'll have to work for it yourselves. I've done what I can."
Zachary Pierce felt the immense weight of the ten cards. He snapped to attention and saluted. "Thank you, Yardley, for everything you've done for Veridia."
Faye Yardley waved her hands frantically. "No, no, Mr. Pierce, please don't do that. You're making me nervous."
