I approach you today, in the hopes of cooperating on a new business opportunity.
Ever since the Corsairs' treachery against The Guild centuries ago, allowing the criminal Hogosha to bypass GMG as their business partners, alien artifacts have been deemed illegal in Guild space. Crooks and thugs periodically try to smuggle this cargo through the Sigmas to fence in Kusari and beyond, often leaving the paramilitary with large payloads, and nowhere to take them.
This wastage should not continue. Iejima Station is perfectly positioned and suited to the storage of artifact shipments confiscated from bootleggers. Kishiro Technologies, as permitted by Kusari law, could then purchase and legally transport these goods into Kusari, leading to profit being essentially pilfered from the coffers of the Corsairs and Hogosha, and transferred to our organisations.
Iejima is prepared to store and sell artifacts, both sorted and unsorted, at 1,000 credits per unit.
This could be a fantastic enterprise, one which would benefit us all and potentially cut down the economies of our mutual opponents.
Please inform me as to whether this might be of any interest to Kishiro.
Good day Guildmaster Namura. It is good to hear again hear from our friends in the Gas Miners Guild. As always, Kishiro would gladly be willing to step up the coorporation between our two groups. There were admittedly some slight issues that came up regarding the legality of this transaction, however after a swift round of discussions among the Kishiro legal team it has been found that this agreement violated none of the laws of Kusari.
With that said, I believe this arrangement to be mutually profitable for both of our groups and on behalf of Kishiro I accept the terms and prices suggested with no need for further negotiation. It is my wish that with this agreement our two groups grow even closer together.
This is excellent news. Should Iejima acquire any stocks of artifacts, they will be immediately prepared for shipping, and you shall be notified on this channel.
I am sure this venture will benefit us all greatly.
Given Kishiro Technologies' position as the leader in technological breakthroughs in Sirius, the Gas Miners Guild would like to enlist the expertise of our friends.
Iejima Station, in Sigma-19, is currently undergoing an important upgrade project. As part of upgrading its electronic and computational systems, a large amount of optronic arrays is required.
None in Sirius can compare with Kishiro's capabilities, and as such, given the proximity of Planet Honshu, we would like to offer a contract for the transport of 40,000 units of your finest optronic arrays from the planet's facilities. The base's commodity dealer will pay 350 credits per unit delivered, but if you were to engage in this contract, The Guild will raise this by an additional 1,500 credits per unit via direct transfer over the neural net, provided proof of the transaction is uploaded to this channel. This would result in a contract worth a total of 60,000,000 credits profit, paid at 1,850 credits per unit.
Please inform me as to whether you find this satisfactory.
Good day Guildmaster Namura. After consultation with both our manufacturing and shipping department I am pleased to announce that the shipment of Optronic Arrays to your installation is approved. We would be more than happy to engage in yet another profitable venture with our good friends in the Guild. At times it almost feels as if our two organizations operate so closely that they are one in the same.
On a logistical note, it has been estimated that these deliveries should take no longer than a week to complete. Payment should be issued once the contract has been completed to an account to be designated at that time. I wish you a good day and hope that the Guild continues to prosper.
Thank you for your recognition, Sir Namura.
Payment received.
Should there be other contract with Kishiro possibly my superiors me participate and be free in the system, I will be delighted to serve your cause again!
As Guild law is enforced in the Sigma systems, the number of confiscated alien artifacts rises constantly.
Iejima Station is currently in possession of 6,000 unprocessed artifacts and 11,000 sorted artifacts. They have been released for sale, all at 1,000 credits per unit. They may be purchased and sold on at your leisure.
The Guild is proud to announce the establishment of its newest asset, Mekong Station, located in orbit of the moon of Planet Saigon, Kauthara, in Sigma-21. Mekong Station is The Guild's local base of operations, established as part of the first stage of the development of the system. In typical fashion, The Guild would like to enlist the assistance of our trusted friends and allies in Kishiro Technologies. Much like Iejima previously, Mekong is in need of Kishiro's renowned optronic arrays from the production facilities of Planet Honshu.
As such, 30,000 units of optronic arrays are requested to be delivered to Mekong Station, in exchange for payment to the amount of 50,000,000 Sirius credits to be transferred over the neural net on completion of these deliveries, should these terms be agreeable.
Furthermore, the Da Nang Asteroid Field in proximity to Planet Saigon is known to harbour deposits of uranium, ripe for collection, for which the storage and sale of Mekong Station is geared towards. Kishiro Technologies is therefore formally invited to join the effort to exploit these resources and with great pleasure is granted permission to do so freely, in the same manner as Kishiro is permitted to engage in gas collection operations in the Sigma systems. These rights are granted by the Gas Miners Guild exclusively to our friends and partners, Kishiro Technologies.
It is hoped the Sigma-21 system will usher in an era of new strength for GMG and The Guild of course welcomes Kishiro to share in this prosperity and represent the interests of the Restored Empire of Kusari in the area as the preferred partner of choice.
