***Comm-ID: Toshi Morinaga, Samura|-Hayabusa.Maru***

This is the new 新入社員 (Shinnyushain) Toshi Morinaga submitting my first trade route report. My route today took me from New Tokyo to Omega-11 and back to New Tokyo. I was able to meet up with a member of the DHC- and purchase some uncut diamonds thanks to the new contract we have. These uncut diamonds were then taken back to Narita Outpost, in New Tokyo for a hefty payday. I am very happy with my decision to join the Heavy Industries division of Samura. It is much more exciting than my old job.

Here are my turret-cam images that detail some of the sights during my trip:


I met up with the DHC-Train.Darmstadt in Sigma-13, and we continued towards New Berlin.
I was carrying some Optical Chips that I bought on clearance at Shinagawa Station.
I will explain why in a minute.



The Darmstadt and my ship (the Hayabusa Maru) passing through the Frankfurt system.
I eventually sold the Optical Chips for cheap at Bonn Station, in New Berlin.
This will drive down the price for Kishiro's 2nd favorite export and hurt their bottom line.
Take that, baka Kishiro! Hehehehe!



The DHC pilot mentioned the harsh conditions of the Omega-11 system and that their mining ships needed frequent replacement of parts.
So I launched from Bonn Station with Mining Machinery and delivered it to Solarius Station, Omega-11.
The Daumann employees on Solarius were very grateful.



The DHC train pilot contacted his colleague in their mining division, who offered to mine uncut diamonds for me in Omega-11.
The service was very quick and polite.
They must have learned that from Kusari Corporate Culture!



The DHC Hegemon mined until my Ryuujin Train was full, then allowed me to take a rest at Solarius while he filled up the DHC-Train.Darmstadt.
I enjoyed some hot tea until it was time to go.
I payed $6000 Sirian Credits for each ton of uncut diamonds as per the new contract.



The DHC Train, now full of uncut diamonds, joined me for the route back to Narita.
He also invited one of his Daumann miner friends who flew under the call-sign: Ziraat.
Here is a photo of our convoy in Honshu.
On the way back, I made paper cranes for my new tomodachi.



Our convoy arrived safely at Narita Outpost with no pirate incidents.
We were surprised that Sigma-13 has been cleaned up already.
There were no nasty Junkers waiting for us there.
The Kusari Naval Forces must be doing a good job.
On Narita, I sold the diamonds for a huge pay-day.
This made me very satisfied.
But now I had to head home to Planet Kyushu.
So I said 'Sayonara' to my Daumann tomodachi and headed towards Yokohama Shipyard.



I arrived safely and even transported over 4000 commuters (Ship Crew) from Yokohama Shipyard to Planet Kyushu with me.
I sent $5,000,000, or 20% of the diamond profits, to the Samura|-Shinjuku Bank account.
When I arrived home, my nagging high-maintenance wife emasculated me into submission.
I agreed to give her all of my profits so she could go shopping for Gallic designer fashion items.
Such is life for the Kusari Salaryman.
