ːcartel_loveː Breaking Mad by casasa viruz [expand type="details"]Story: A Chemistry professor of Tensaca HS, Javier Gutierres has just recently got diagnosed with the horrible disease of Cancer, he was never an important person and that reflected on his poor paycheck. He had no way of paying his debts and he was too Honorable to beg, after seeing a documentary on meth he decided that was his answer as he had 3 years to make 1 million of cash to pay for his medical bills. He got in contact with and ex student who knew about the streets and how they work, Took out all of his savings (50k) to invest in his new "business" and started cooking.
The Quest is to get 1M Clean cash in 3 years (Jan 1, 1993) only by cooking meth and selling them to gangs (don't export). Also you shall only build enough to start producing meth and use sand roads (no warehouses, residences, hotels or anything else) everything must be manual and dont research anything else

Hire one of the 3 available LT's and don't hire anymore in the whole game change the LT nickname to Pinkguy/Pinkgirl, demolish the hotel, Build a set up for meth in the Desert of tensaca (again no warehouses everything must be manual). And build a Single Casino for money laundering (only have this one Casino) and only sell the meth trough gang deals.
