Greetings, friends.
I realize it's highly irregular for a group like ours to contact a company such as yours, but since we haven't received any reply to our message to Samura corporation, I figured a smaller company might be more willing to risk working with strangers like us.
If you're wondering what exactly it is we do, well, we're a group of independent traders who specialise in shipping "difficult" cargo. In short, if there's something you need but for whatever reason it's difficult or impossible for you to get, well, we just might be able to get it for you. And it can of course work the other way around. If you need something shipped to a destination where your transports would find themsleves unwelcome, we can take care of that too.
I'll leave this channel open for a while, let us know if you'd be interested in what we can offer.
it is my pleasure to make your acquaintance. My name is Yoshimoto Susumu, a member of the board of directors of the SRD.
First and foremost, I would like to apologize for the delay in our answer. We have recently ran into quite a few unforseen scenarios that had priority in being dealt with, nevertheless we should not have overlooked a potential cooperative party just like that. I have to admit that we have not yet heard of the MacRoroy's Irregulars previously. Therefore, before we can agree to working with you, there's a few things we have to know first to ensure mutual cooperativeness in the future.
We, the SRD, would like to know of previous deals that you've had that give you credibility. We do, however, understand that privacy is a big concern for everyone in Sirius, and as such we will not be asking about any names of previous contractors, how much money has been spent, et cetera. All that we would like to know is what type of commodities your company has dealt with before, as to make sure we do not request something that may or may not be out of your companies scope in terms of volume or difficulty in acquiring and shipping. Please understand that this is necessary for us to determine what we can and will possibly request from you in the future to make sure that we can deal with each other as fluently and effortlessly as possible.
We are, of course, open to any questions of similar nature from your side, if you so desire.
Sincerely,
Yoshimoto Susumu, Senkaku Regional Development

Greetings mr. Yoshimoto Susumu.
No apologies are necessary, I have indeed noticed some reports of increased violence and overal risk factor on the Kusari - Rheinland route. I don't have the specifics of the situation, but I imagine it requires your full attention.
As for your inquiry about our capabilities... well, let's put it this way. We are not affiliated with any one house or organisation and, due to our emphasis on discretion, we simultaneously managed not to step on anyone's toes so far, which gives us the unique position of acess to pretty much every market within Sirius. You can therefore consider any legal commodity to be reasonably within our reach. We have carried shipments of weapons and Xenobiotic filters to the outer reaches of the sector, we regularly trade in refined metals of all sorts and much more. Our position also gives us access to a fair selection of... let's say 'unorthodox suppliers'. The only 'cargo' we're not equiped to deal with are passangers of any sort and frankly, that's better left to the OS&C and other travel agencies anyway.
If I'm to be honest, volume is probably our largest weakness. We are a small group, and while we do operate transport sized ships, we don't have access to the largest ones available. You can consider the Serenity-line of transports as a benchmark size for a single delivery. For those reasons, we tend to specialise in smaller scale custom orders, but if time is not of an essence for a particular order we can acommodate larger scale supply request as well.
As of now, the SRD does not require any specific commodities that we cannot acquire by ourselves. However, we have had a use for Molybdenum previously, something that is only available within Gallia, which we are unfortunately not allowed to enter. We are certain that, in the forseeable future, we will once again require Molybdenum, or a similar good that will require the help of a third party. Should such a case arise, we will contact you for assistance if your offer is still valid then.
Sincerely,
Yoshimoto Susumu, Senkaku Regional Development

Greetings mr. Yoshimoto Susumu.
Galia is certainly available to us, so in case you need any goods from their space, we'll be happy to get them for you, for the right price of course.
I hope this message finds you well. An opportunity to cooperate has shown itself further than we had previously assumed. The SRD currently require 9.000 Units of Nanotubes, delivered to Yokohama Shipyard in New Tokyo. We're willing to pay 600.000 Sirian Credits total for the required amount of Nanotubes. On top of that, we would like to offer another 100.000 Credits if the Nanotubes can be delivered within 2 days of this transmission reaching you.
Please give us a response if you're willing to take on the contract, as otherwise we will have to look for alternatives.
Sincerely,
Yoshimoto Susumu, Senkaku Research and Development

Greetings mr. Yoshimoto Susumu.
The proposed terms are acceptable to us. I have set up the contract on our internal job board, I'll contact you again when the nanotubes are delivered.

Greetings mr. Yoshimoto Susumu.
It seems one of our pilots really liked the idea of your bonus. All the nanotube shipments were delivered, I'm attaching the manifests to this message. Disregard the Niobium, the crew of the ship just stocked up on some extra cargo when they were coming for the last bit of nanotubes for your order. Direct the payment to MRI_Bank account, please. I wish you a good luck with whatever endeavour you're working on currently, and if you need anything else, let us know, we're always looking for more opportunities.
We have just confirmed the arrival of the requested Nanotubes with the peronell on Yokohama Shipyard. The payment of 700.000 Credits should be on your bank account now.
Sincerely,
Yoshimoto Susumu, Senkaku Research and Development
