Ragman — briefing

Good day to you! We already went so far together, you’re like a brother to me. Like family, see, don’t get me wrong. So, like a brother, answer frankly, do you like reading? I devoured books back then, as a kid. But now I need a serious book, for business. A rare bitch for sure, but I know you can get a devil from under the ground if you'd want. Get me the book about designing clothes from special fabrics, all that military stuff has to be made with aramid fabric, which has its own tricks to it. There should be a manual for them, in two volumes. If you can get it, that’d be capital. Should probably check in the book stores, they must be there. ULTRA had, as I remember, the "Knigoyed" and "Museum of History" stores, so make sure to search them both.

Objectives

• Obtain the Clothes design handbook - Part 1 on Interchange
• Hand over the Clothes design handbook - Part 1 to Ragman
• Obtain the Clothes design handbook - Part 2 on Interchange
• Hand over the Clothes design handbook - Part 2 to Ragman

Tactical notes

• WHERE TO LOOK: both halves of the book are in shops on Streets of Tarkov, and they sit in fixed spots rather than at random.
• The first is in the Museum of Stories shop, on the floor opposite the arcade machines.
• The second is in the Knigoed bookshop, on the central shelving unit, bottom shelf.

On completion

Ragman: You really found them? Thank you, friend. Don't get any ideas, these books are very important, they'll help me with my business.
