This data burst contains the 750 applications filed by my brethren. We are the Karume family from Kyushu. And we are applying for various jobs at Samura.
Our Patron, the late Karume Sama wished for us to continue in his legacy. So here we are a year after his death. Our family company has grown in wealth and power. The inherited Bumblebee type freighter has been replaced with a J90P-54HT 'Big Dragon' Kusari Transport. Soon the profit from its trading will allow for a miner vessel, an escort vessel and even a Cruise ship.
The Karume have always had good relations with Samura. But the family company is growing bigger than expected. We have become a profitable group that wants to contribute. Our request is to be admitted into Samura Heavy Industries. To all parts of the Samura divisions.

What exactly happened is still unknown. Scientists called it a 'wormhole anomaly'. After trying a new wormhole we ended up in Bretonian space. The war with Bretonia meant we had to fly under the radar. So I ordered all lights to be shut off, and weapons power to be added to the engine. My engineers told me later, that the engines ran much more efficient with this extra power, and they wanted to experiment on a new engine design. But that's not for this report. We found ourselves in hostile territory and had to get out. The decision was made to try the Newcastle Jump gate, at that moment unguarded. It proved to be a dead end, but not without its profit. We found a station there that would let us dock, regardless of the war hostilities. And on our way back we saw a City unlike others. It was build on a asteroid the size of Shinjuku station. And scans indicated it had heavy shielding and was not human design. This Intel had to reach Kusari. So we sneaked our way out, and realized we had to go through the New London system if we were to reach the Liberty systems. There we could claim relative safety.

The Captain has ordered us to prepare a container with 100.000 credits in it. Supposedly it is to be dropped at 'Reppu Bend'. Rumor has it that our captain has struck a lucrative deal with a Pirate named Syntax. We never have been shot at but we have spent multiple times with our engines powered down. I thrust the captain knows what he is doing, and the profit is about 4 milion on this trip. So I think spending this little credits on a save passage is neatly negotiated. Some Kusari officials request bigger payments. Oh were good to go, so I got to run now. Computer'¦ Save this log as'¦

.. Calculating Karume Profit per hour'¦
Trading ship: Bumblebee 1.800 Metric Cube Cargo Space
Total Fly time: 30 hours
Total Credit: 48 million
Total Ships worth: 31 million
The Karume Total value: 79 million
Net value per hour: 2,7 million an hour
New Trading ship: Big Dragon 3.200 Metric Cube Cargo Space
Multiply net value by: x2
Expected new value per hour: 5,2 million an hour
'¦Reminder'¦
Startup time for improving initial funding is taken along in this calculation so net value is supposedly even higher than shown in this calculation.
