To: Hogosha

[GhothaAyala]

To the respectable Hogosha,

My name is Ghotha Ayala, a citizen of planet Crete and a merchant. As a trader it would be an honor for my company to do business with a long standing ally of the Corsair Empire. Hereby I extend a formal proposal with hopes that we can come to an agreement.

I am aware that there are already trade agreements between the Corsair Empire and Hogosha, I would like to stress that I am not in representation of the Empire, nor do I represent myself, but the civilian sector of planet Crete and all of the goods and services they have to offer.

I've been led to believe that Hogosha is ripe with men and women of business, I look forward to future deals with the Hogosha organization.

Sincerely

Ghotha Ayala

OOC: Any trade deals that might or might not result from this will most likely be the RP kind, to be played out either on forums or in game or both. As a new player I have very little tangible in game assets to offer though. So while this may not be profitable to any of the parties involved I can assure it will at least be enjoyable.

Edit: Small clarification of expectations.

To Ghotha Ayala:

Very well! We have no contract with any other Corsair individuals and our contracts with Corsair Factions are non exclusive. So if you should want to ply trade with us you have the chance....

Let us know of the trades you can offer an we'll see if a deal can be made.

Thank you for your attention, now I hope that I can get your curiosity,

Here are a some of the goods that I can provide regular shipments of.

One of the main offers that we can provide are for the stockpiles of raw resources of Crete that our many production facilities can not process.

The weapons manufacturer known as IBC (Industria Belica Corsaria) is interested in commercializing it's light arms and a few of light craft weapons.

There is also many miners who have stumbled upon caches upon caches of devices of Nomad origin. Many Corsairs in service of the empire also come to me with the remains of Nomad ships they have destroyed.

It is a little hard for me to name random goods so I have also sent you a list of many other trades that may be of interest.

Best regards,

Ghotha Ayala

To Ghotha Ayala:

Thank you for sharing information about the goods you can offer, I received your note and I think we can trade.....

I suggest that when coming to Kabukicho you check market prices and spot rates on the day, as you know, prices vary with economic and political tensions in our system and there would be disappointment if you were not to make a fair profit.

I'd caution one thing though and provide a word of warning, the Hogosha are not really interested in dealing with Nomad artifacts and materials, we don't care to handle it and don't have an official onward customer. If you trade Nomad cargo through Kusari you will eventually find trouble with the local cops, or navy, and we wouldn't want you naming the Hogosha as the recipients during the inevitable question and torture session that would follow your arrest.

I am glad that we can do business,

I will contact you at a later date for a meeting where we can discuss the details further at the earliest convenience for both parties.

I apologize for not being aware of the laws in Kusari space, it was not my intention to blatantly propose something illegal, just accidentally. Flying under a corsair flag is dangerous enough as it is.

Looking forward to doing business with you,

Ghotha Ayala
