From: Malaki Ubel

My country would like to purchase 50 billion tones of both Diamon and Platinum. Upon knowing the prices the money will be wired to bank account number: 66785 -- Where Hive Fleet Imodius' ruler will be able to pick up the cash. Once you tell us the price, the pin number will be sent via encryption to you.

We would like to negotiate a fair price for a yearly supply of Compound Carbons. Currently, our needs are a mere 1 million tons.

OOC: XD -- I knew that was comming. Find my topic: End. -- That could help you explain it. I had a country with 30 or so million people with a thriving economy and I defacted it because of bordem, and started this one. Only I had the funds in the Black Budget brought to the Oberst Reich empire which is at an undisclosed location in the universe.

OOC: Transfer funds from Black Budget to other branches of financial affairs. Simple enough. I don't only invest in military you do know. -.-
I invest in other things to help humanity, such as embryo research and the like.

Mekanta: DNA would be a good exchange - please state nature of specimins in order that we may give them a value.

Sephrioth:
50 million tons Adamantium shipped on fund transfer completion.


The hive is also offering Cures to all known human disease and malformities at a cost of 1 trillion usd - in this deal all new resurch will be handed to you upon its completion regarding this species.

The cost is nothing - shipping has already begun - ships are well jumping to your system as we speak.

And in business news today, paper-based construction materials investors were brokenhearted, as foreign production flooded the market, quickly bringing the share value as well as profit earning capabilities of Big Cardboard Manufacturer, Inc and Eight Bajillion Tons of Cardboard Goodness, Ltd.

"The Steel Empire finds these prices quite nice. As the Steel Empire does not export these materials, we find no problem with thier price declining sharply. It simply means more soldiers and ships for our military."

"We will purchase four billion tons each of titanium, iron, coal, adamantium, and diamond."


"The DNA we have is of several Mekantan-territory predators, including something we can describe as a scorpion-like lizard and a cat with six legs and three stinging tails. Quite dangerous."

ooc: I know I'm new and am only a modern nation but how are you guys buying in a currency? Is there some intergalactic bank that the entire galaxy perscribes to ala UN? If not this assumes you A) have that currency on hand and B) the country your selling to has involvement in a market where the currency can be used.

just curious no offence intended. I was wondering how it worked in space.

Tyraelia
28-12-2004, 01:16
Errrr.....you guys do realise that 70 trillion tons is alot.

1 million tons = the general export of a country of its primary resource for 5 years. (Australia = Coal)

1 billion equals the produce of a planet.

1 trillion equals the produce of one thousand planets.

70 trillion is SEVENTY THOUSAND PLANETS, all mined for 5 years. Consider the fact that such a mining operation per planet would take 0.25 million people. At least. Now consider 70 thousand times 0.25 million. 17.5 billion people. How many countries on NS have 17.5 billion people? Also, no one could mine that much, considering the demands of agriculture, protection, exploration, maintaining mining operations....

Obviously, this is a numberwanking situation. Also, the selling them for 1 USD each is simply a godmodder's attempt to crash out the market with non-existant goods.

IGNORED. (OOC: I'm going through all the threads of HFI, and checking what he has done. If he turns out to be a bad enough godmodder, I'll ignore his attack on my planet)

IC> The hive wishes to reopen trade with those it once traded with and welcomes any who would wish to trade with us.

The hive has had time to build up stockpiles - if there is a material you require despiratly then we shall come to an arrangement.

The People's Republic of Cyrian Space would like to purchase 50000 tons each of gold and diamonds, both of which we use extensively in the tunnel drive allowing our ships to exceed lightspeed. If you will transmit to us the coordinates, we can pick up these resources ourselves, although this may take several days.

Once you tell us the price, the pin number will be sent via encryption to you.

The Trade Council are still furious about this stunt. Several L4-owned assets became worthless after the payment for all that happened. Please, show more concern for our system's economy in the future.
Lagrange 4
28-12-2004, 11:53
By trading such massive amounts of precious materials, we are straining the economy. We can't keep up this balancing act much longer, so I urge Imodius to place restrictions on the amount of material they release. Millions of asteroid miners will be left without jobs if you keep this up, and once you deplete your own resources, there will be no mining infrastructure left abroad and prices will soar. You're sowing the seeds of an interplanetary economic depression.
DemonLordEnigma
28-12-2004, 11:57
Every year, nations use 600 octillion tons of resources. This will only make a mild dent in certain markets and that'll heal over quickly.
Lagrange 4
28-12-2004, 12:05
Perhaps, Councilor, but platinum and diamonds? These are controlled resources that have had more or less steady markets for years. A new, unregulated supply with a massive output will bankrupt smaller economies.

Watch those prices tumble.

100 million tonnes of each of the following: Adamantium, Titanium, Platinum.
Reason: Construction of space fleets and ground based mech units
Method of payment: Via wiring of money between bank accounts.
Treasury Account: J - 647 - G5T.
Once the price has been assured, a one time PIN code will be transmitted. It will work ONCE ONLY, and will restrict the flow of currency being taken away. This is merely a security precaution, to prevent transactions becoming an oppurtunity for criminal nations to steal billions of Snake Liras

I am afraid that I must question why, as an alternative payment, you request a sample of the Snake Eaters population? As this is considered highly unethical by the Snake Eater High Council, we offer payment of 300,000,000 USD. The one time PIN will be wired via telegram within the hour of this message. In exchange for these materials, Snake Eaters also wonder if there is anything that you should require, such as military support. The Snake Eater Space Fleets have just been rearranged, and is willing to give assistance to any nations that wish it.

They'll recover. I've been selling such materials for years now.

OOC: NS is a bit far-fetched. The last time I checked, we had enough nations to require more than 2 dozen Earths, some of which reach population levels Earth cannot support under modern technology. The figure isn't that far fetched when you consider I'm going by all of the nations known to have registered.
