I am looking to set up a trading business between White Giant and Little Upsilon and I am seeking an entrepreneur from LU willing to work with me.
The idea is to trade products that are alternatively cheap and expensive in the respective worlds. If commodities are chosen and priced correctly, my research has shown that it is possible for goods coming from WG to provide me with at least 50% profit when sold in space and for my trading partner to also gain another 50% or more when sold in LU. At the same time, the reverse trading provides us both with a similar profit when LU goods are sold at the space station and again in WG. This reverse trading ensures journeys to the docking station are not wasted!
To begin the exercise, I have chosen tea (quality 300) from WG and I have pre-loaded 2M tons and I am selling it at 1.5M tons per GC. In return, I am looking to purchase meat at similarly favourable terms depending on the quality, these can be agreed beforehand if preferred. As an example, my calculations are that a GC (circa 110Bn) buys 1.5M tons, which could be sold in LU for around 220Bn. So, in the case of tea, there is in the region of 100% profit.
The overheads for trading are the initial cost of the shuttle (5GCs), the rental of a docking station (5GCs per station, since 2 stations would be desirable) and the maintenance units for the shuttle. These costs should be easily covered inside a month of trading. The business can be expanded to other commodities if proved successful.
Anyone interested should contact me at Thailoonia on WG or through the messaging system or reply to this thread. Alternatively, to be truly first come first served, rent a docking station on the Space Station Triangle and buy the tea immediately!
