Location: Omega 15 system


Bon jour , gentlemen from IDF shipping and Gallic metal service. This is call from far indeed , but bussines and mutual benefit knows no boundaries.
My name is Ted Prescot , i am zoner origin and i am administering freeport 101 in omega 15 system. In short, we would like to establish some trade relations with prominent Galllic corporations regarding uncut diamonds trade.

As You are aware those resources only source is southern Sirius, so it is undisputable potentiall usefulness of possibility to acess them and benefit .

We have traded them in Kusari with steady suppliying market , but Rheinland goverment put some formal obstacles for tranporting licenses. Our evaluation is that when those stokpiles get consumed demand will highten prices dramattically for all who would like to purchase.
Big Rheinland companies fear to venture in omega 11 , so called Hessian revolutionaries neither mine these days neither allow others so situation with diamonds is uncertain at best prognosis.

As Gallics have suspicion over zoners , this is not a demand for docking rights to gallia as OSI company for instance has, but rather invitation to visit our System with your own ships via hyperjump.
We have a barge and subcontractors who extract ores for us. At the moment we have 40k of metric tons of uncut diamonds and are somewhat clogged in system , as we are denied traveling via Rheinland , and other exits to southern omegas are risky enterprise as there are hostile evnironment and too rocky for such big tranportation.
We are willing to sell full barge supplement of cargo for 180 millions credits, and if you are interested we might arrange to buy cryocubes or some good gallic products and sell to Rheinland which might have positive impact on our relationship with niebghours.
This invitation doent mean one time shoot bussines. IF our cooperation proves fruitfull, we can get steady supply market , and you can get valuable partner in obtaining one of the scarcest commodities in Sirius.

We have hyperjump ship to assist you if needed, but count that our venture to gallic space even as partners include proper authorisation by Gallic goverment.

Bonjour Ted Prescot,
my name is Michel Fournie, Director of Commerce, IDF Shipping.

Your post is interesting and we do have manufacturing plants in need of uncut diamonds, but it does contain some points in need of mention/discussion.

1) You are correct regarding Zoner standing in Gallia as we have had a mixed experience in Gallia. However, IDF successfully interacted with the Phoenix company. Post this activity the Kingdom eventually grantrd them access to Gallia. Thus being a Zoner is not inherently an automatic problem.

2) Jumping is more of a problem. The Kingdom has tended to be suspicious of this type of activity having encountered major problems in the past. At this juncture it would seem probable that any trade would need to be of a more traditional nature.

3) Some of our vessels have transported on Rheinland contracts, one was even hijacked by Hessian forces and taken into Omega 11 so we are aware of the route. Omega 15 and its Freeport are however unknown to us.

4) If passing through Rheinland space how likely will the government be in allowing Zoner supplies through? Especially if they have banned your current exports?

5) IDF pilots are used to traversing war zones are there other routes available to your dept? We are aware of Omicron Gamma, having provided emergency supplied to inhabitants of that system. We have also supplied to the Dublin system, would any of these two routes be possible avenues to explore?

Regardez
Michel

Thnks for swift answer. As You were plain and clear i will follow points You stated


1) I hope our cooperation will be satisfactory

2) We do not request to jump to Gallia . Instead we would like to pass the coordinates of our system (it is beyonf Rheinland border) that You visit us. We have mined out and sold many of resources there , credits are not important as developing trade and friendly relations. We have subcotractor company who would mine diamonds for us. We will store it on our barge and will charge small fee for that. You can get diamonds for mining price + our services and that will not exceede 200 milions for full barge supplement.

There is possibility indeed that we come to Gallia with our jumping ship , but only if you dont have enough ships and resources to tranport back to Gallia on your own. In same case we are not planning to sell comercially, just in same terms stated above.

3) Common traversing to our system if you want bypassing Rheinland is via omega 3 , omega 5 (controlled by hessians and corsairs , but system is small sized and can be quickly traversed and omega 41 to omega 15. Other route via Stutgart and Dresden is more secured.
4) Rheinland will not interefere as we work with Kruger Minerals who are Rheinland company. Any inconviniances with Hessians if they emerge we take credit to settle, as problematic which might occur is of economical nature rather than political , regarding your part. Kruger miners are those who have to be accountable for themselves more.

5) Dublin via Gran canaria , and there is conncetion from omicron theta to omega 41 and nearby hole to omega 15.

Still direct jump is best solution , regarding terms we offered.

This is opportunity for You to acess diamonds without handing down foreigners to export Gallia and rip most of profits. For us is opportunity to spread cooperation and in future establish basis for importing some fine gallic products and introducing it to people in Omegas and omicrons.

These terms are identicall to GMS too, so as our correspondence is threeparted and open. If you find it usefull You can jointly be part of project.

More than enough for now with regards,
Ted Prescot

Bonjour Ted Prescot,

My name is Johnnie Lapierre and I`m responding to this in the name of the Gallic Metal Service.

1. If you want to do business with us we must set all the papers to be in great shape. For that we shall have to discuss with the Kingdom some potential problems. Also, since we are a mining company, we do not posess any jump capable ship but instead we shall contact monsieur Russell Proux from Ile-de-France Shipping Company.

2. If we get the papers right then we are set to go and do business, we need specific comodities from each other so we find this relation very usefull. I`m sure the wealthy people from Gallia will apreciate some high quality diamonds which they can shape in anything they want.

3. Also, from our point of view, we can grant you access to a specific outpost located in the Berry system, if we manage to settle down we shall send you the coordonates and the codes to authorise the docking procedures.

For the moment I don`t think I can say other things. We shall arrange a meeting with the Kingdom to discuss this trading oportunity, but we believe that eveything will go smooth.

Au revoir monsieur!

Well, nice that GMS responded too.

I have made some internal talks and ive got impression that Your companies do not posses supertransport ship. I suppose that gallic goverment has put too much war efforts regarding bretonian campaign , so our enterprising if proven fruitfull can be sometime pretexture to appeal for obtaining such vessel from whatever authority who have power to initiate its completition.

I will use opportunity to point your attention slightly further. In faraway nomad world called omicron delta there is only source of Iridium in Sirius. However , other zoner fraction controls that remote sector, but i am certainly sure that some groups wuld be most interested in your cryostasis and cryocubes as they can be used to preserve nomad alien specimens in tranportation and protect from infection danger.

It is redundant to mention iridium importance in military industrial complex production, and so on nomad biotechnologies applicated to advanced miitary equipment.

I might have some connections to introduce Your companies there, but let us stick to ores for now. Get clearences or whatever needed to start bussines. Resources will wait you in o15. If needed/helpfull and authorized we might help in tranportation to Gallia, just take us back, hehe.

Will not clog our correspondence more , will await full bussines plan than and we can start. You can leave personal message on neural net adress.

with respects , salut , Prescot out.
