Bonsoir, Sirrians!
I am just going to get straight to the point, keep things succinct, oui? This is a general transmission to any curious merchants and scientists loafing about the 'Taus' who are interested in procuring some rare and valuable goods from the good ol' house of Gallia. Oui I know tensions are high and the Navy is blasting everything into tiny bits, but I have a way in and out of Gallic space which bypasses the warzone so I can make good on these supply deliveries without running into the Royals. You wonder who I am? No one special. I am just a man with a freighter who knows his way around'¦ well certain parts of Gallia.
I can get you things.
In fact I am writing this from the flight lounge in 'Freeport 10', a rather quaint station in the middle of a rather nice patch of ice. My ship is here and loaded up with a nice selection of cargo right now that is available for sale to any merchantman or scientist who is willing to pay.
Here is what I have for sale:
20 Artifact Crates: Mysterious pieces of rock and engravings pulled from dig sights on Planet Bourges. I do not know much about them, but their very existence seems to suggest that something else had to be living on the planet before the Crown arrived. The notion of the possibilities of intelligent life other than humans is rather fascinating and well worth the investigation!
1 Canister of Monaco NOX: Highly highly highly'¦highly illegal substance in Gallia. NOX is a chemical substance that is derived from a very peculiar species of symbiotic bacteria native to Planet Marseille. The drug causes the user to experience a time slowing, sedative effect which is followed by hallucinations and later a deep sleep which lasts upwards of 16 hours. The drug has very little, if any physical dependencies, but the psychological addiction is much more intense from what I know about it. Currently there are no ways to reproduce the effects with any chemicals and drugs and there is no way of creating NOX without using the animals and bacteria. NOX research has been banned in Gallia for over 50 years, so maybe a medical use for the drug can be found in Sirrian scientists. This stuff is not easy to get.
5 Barrels of Oil: A rather common substance used as fuel in most Gallic Starships and in several industries. It is my understanding that Sirrius has very little, if any natural sources of oil so this substance could be of interest to chemists and those interested in industrial research.
30 Types of Petrochemicals (2 Canisters of each type): Again a little something something for the chemists. Here we have 30 different types of industrial chemicals, pretty big variety here, these things can be used to make rubber, some pharmaceuticals, plastics, paint, etc. I have 2 of each canisters of each, so you can use one for experimentation and one for storage.
20 Crates of Platinum Ingots: Rare and very valuable precious metal. Often used in catalytic converters in chemical reactors. Can also be used as a symbol of wealth, melted and forged into jewelry and trinkets as well as a wide variety of parts for scientific and medical equipment.
10 Canisters of Promethene: A very rare gaseous byproduct of petrochemical nuclear reactions. Frankly I do not know enough about the stuff to tell you what it could be used for'¦ but it is extremely difficult to extract Promethene from the reactor process. Could have some interesting chemical properties, but I do not know much about it.
10 Locked GRN Crates of Promethium: The primary fuel catalyst for all Gallic engines, specifically capital ship drives. Very radioactive and highly unstable'¦ also the crates I have are'¦ umm well liberated GRN shipments which are locked and I have no way of opening them. But the radioactive signature is there inside them, so I can say for sure that it is Promethium'¦ worth noting that the GRN is desperately trying to prevent this material from leaving Gallia (fear of finding weaknesses in their stardrives?).
100 Crates of Tobacco: Several crates of dried and processed tobacco leaves ready for processing into cigarettes, cigars, and chew, whatever suits you're fancy. All samples are from Planet Orleans. May interest scientists, but I figure merchants would want this more than them.
30 Bottles Champagne, 70 Bottles of Chardonnay, 50 Bottles Chenin Blanc, and 50 Bottles Pinot Noir: This is the best of the best of the best of the best. No finer drinks in existence. Who would not want them?
My ship will be stationed at Freeport 10 for a few days, I am ready to sell them to anyone in the area, but I will be using the station's area of grace for my own safety, mainly because I know that these Zoner fellows are rather nice in that regard, and I do not know much about the locals.
Contact me on this channel if you are interested in anything.
Adieu.
