Jones here. Aquila has drafted plans to expand Canberra Star City, with the primary purpose of adding a small-scale shipyard.
But to do that, we need materials. We'll be doing this in multiple stages. First, we need materials for the hull, as follows.
24,000 Basic Alloy, 2788 credits per crate. 12,000 Super Alloy, 1400 credits per crate. 12,000 High-Performance Alloy, 1500 credits per crate. Remember, High-Performance, not High-Temperature. 12,000 Superconductors, 2400 per crate. These are needed in order to expand the reactive armor to the new wing of the station.
When all of these arrive, we'll get to work fabricating the hull, and the next order will be announced.
Reporting on this channel is appreciated, but all the payment should be handled by the dockmaster upon arrival so it's not strictly necessary.

Greetings, Reys here. I'm with my youngs took 3 Serenity's cargoholds of Superconductors from Rochester. Seems stock limit was reached after delivery of.. 10232 units, right. Guess somebody deliver one load before me.

Monty here!
Myself and the crew of the Dreaded Skies always happy to help out our friends at Aquila. Particularly if you're paying out good credits for the trouble. To that end, we've picked up the High Performance Alloy portion of the contract. You'll find a copy of our cargo manifest for all 12,000 cargo units attached to this message. After this, I think I might be able to afford our lease payment to Guildmaster Riley and have enough left over to eat some time this month. If nobody else picks it up, we'll gladly help you out with something else, too.

Monty here!
First, let me wish you a Merry Christmas! To celebrate the holiday, I've brought you a gift. I've completed the Basic Alloy and Super Alloy portions of the contract. The warehouse manager gifted me some cash in return, so I'd say today's been a fine holiday. You should be able to confirm delivery with the people down at the warehouse. If you need myself and my crew for anything else, you can find us down on the Residential or Market Layer, touring the various bars, taverns, saloons, cervezarias, and other assorted drinking establishments.

Jones here. Now that the new government's figured out which way their pants go on, we're able to proceed with the next stage of the plan.
Here's the shopping list.
2,000 crew. I'm told arrangements are being made for this already.
20,000 Basic Alloy, $5049 per crate.
20,000 Industrial Materials. $3200 per crate.
15,000 Robotic Hardware. $5,250 per crate.
10,000 Optronics. $5098 per crate.
10,000 Optical Chips. $4228 per crate.
That'll do. Jones out.

Those of you still on the line are certified Octavarium Mercantile Guild haulers, Aquila transport captains, and trusted third-parties. Gotta keep Crayter out of some of the shiftier business, keeps things easier on both of us.
Ageira's developed a very nice software and hardware package for managing shipyard operations. Unfortunately, we are not Ageira's favorite people. Instead, I need you to source them from Ageira's least-favorite people.

Good day Director Jones,
The Leviathan was dispatched to Freeport 6 to pick up 2,000 workers to help build and operate the shipyard. They are presently in the process of disembarking from the Leviathan and working their way through customs. I'm told that the Ministry of Services will be assigning them living quarters. Once they're all settled in, they should be able to begin work at your convenience.
Nice to see you're paying out good credits again. For our part of this project, we headed down to Leiden Base to facilitate a large file transfer from our Hacker friends. You'll find our delivery down in shipping & receiving. I made sure to have the cargo routed your way.
Oh, could you do me a favor and let Consul Riley know that the check for this month's lease payment is in mail?
I've completed the last of the software deliveries. If you need me for anything else, my crew and I will be down on the Market and Residential Layers, taking a tour of every bar, tavern, taphouse, saloon, winery, gin joint, and cerveceria we can find.
On second thought, you might want to wait until tomorrow afternoon before giving us additional work.
If you check with the boys down on the loading docks, you'll find that we've dropped off 10,000 crates of optical chips and started in a bit into the Optronics. Between the new ship the boss bought and the contract you're paying out for, my bank balance is actually starting to get out of the red for a change. Keep the work coming!
