Mr. Chenzo...

The talks have stretched a little bit longer than I initially anticipated but I'm contacting you with some good news.

We've successfully acquired 40,000 units of High Performance Alloy in cashes locked on our station. These are currently being tested to meet required criteria but no problems have been reported so far. The Heat Sinks should arrive tomorrow or within the following two standard rotations. Our Whales can transport the cashes further to a location of your choice or we might sort them and prepare for your vessels to pick from our installation.

Speaking of which... As I've previously mentioned, we're currently in need of Hull Segments and Industrial Hardware. The former in quantity of 40,000 units and the later in total of 10,000 units. Why don't we find a suitable exchange rate instead of a standard credit compensation? I believe the Nation of Malta is in posession of such, or otherwise able to obtain them. Therefore, our Whales could pick them up upon returning from the trip with your cargo, or the other way around. That's all, naturally, to be done once we've sorted the issue with Heat Sinks. I'm willing to offer a bonus payment in Sirian Credits due to both the unwielding nature of Hull Segments as well as our inquiry being greater than yours in standard capacity units. The amount of such would be to be agreed upon between both of our sides.

What do you think? Would it be acceptable? I'm looking forward to the next message of yours and until then...

...may the gods and fortune favor you on your journeys.
