Response to Austronesian Design Consortium and International Merchant Conglomerate :

Both ships are equally useful and in the long run, larger ships would help. However, cheaper ships would also allow for more to be built. Therfore, if an investment could go to creating an all new class of cargo ship that combines these two aspects, Telosan Shipping would offer to be the first to test and buy these ships. Telosan offers this job to the Tutchone Confederacy first.

As for a joint venture, Telosan would rather stick with trading by sea, regardless of risks as it is a tradition to the origin of the seafaring country itself. However, military airfields have been built since the 'official' creation of the Grand Imperial Military.

OOC: Can't figure out how to link to words.

IC: Telosan offers to allow storage on and usage of the air fields for a yearly sum.
OOC- No, no, IMC is offering to help with your logistics as a seperate entity from the cargo you ship, so as to create more space in your merchant vessels for more goods.

OOC: Sorry if I confused you! Austronesian is in Emangu, a different nation of mine, not Tutchone. Sorry about that.

OOC: I know but I'd rather stick with ships. I'm also offering in return for IMC to use the airfeilds as a base of operations for the planes so IMC has a wider reach with the trade shipment.

IC:

The Telosan Empire offers a buisness contract to Austronesian Design Consortium, Yasaman Industries, and International Merchant Conglomerate to each construct a ship combining the features of the QZ Class Vessel, IMC-SHGC009 Orca vessel, and TR Maru II Class Transport. The country with the best end result will recieve the contract and all of Telosan's Shipping ships will be swapped with the new design.

The IMC will accept your offer and would like to inquire if those same airfields could be used by our sister companies of the Krantz Group.

Also, the Krantz Group would like to inquire about stock prices of Telosan Shipping for possible purchase.

The IMC's sister companies may also use the airfields but each company pays seperatly.

Telosan has decided that selling stock in the company would be beneficial. 40% of Telosan's stocks can be sold with a limit of 10 per country. When trading the stocks the Telosan Shipping Empire claims 5% of the profits.

33% are for sale. The other 7% are distributed 1% to each country Telosan currently trades with.

OOC: stock trading takes place here please.

Austronesian Design Consortium asks if, because of the combinations inherent, if this ship may only sail on water - or if it must, too, sail on the air.

Telosan is an ancient seafaring nation. Life on the water is a tradition reflected in many buisnesses and the goverment itself.

OOC- Uh, Telosan, You trade with more than seven countries though....

IC-

The Krantz Group, which owns all the IMC brand companies, will pay one sum for unrestricted use for all component companies. The Krantz Group will also purchase 10% of the stock.

--------------------

The Dominion will purchase 10% of stock to go along with the 1% it already owns as a trading partner.

ACO Ltd, as the legal owners of the Gaza Port, would like to purchase 5% of the shipping group - with an open option to sell half of these purchased shares to oZ (the administrators of said port).

Austronesian reports that there should be no problems in the new ship's development.

OOC: Fine, 1% to all countries I trade with.

IC: Since the stock is selling well, the Telosan Shipping Empire opens up all but 20% of the stock. The limit of 10% per country remains and 5% of sales go to Telosan. Once the stock is bought up trade amongst yourselves, but remember Telosan keeps the buisness in Telosani hands.

Dominion can only buy 9% as they cannot excede their limit. The Krantz Group pays full for 1, and half for the other.

OOC: ACO? Also remember you can divide the stocks into fractions. You can sell .00000000001% of the stock to a million people. I don't need to be informed of the way the progress on the ship goes. When you think its done, statisics and a picture (any picture of any ship, just like to have a visual) of the ship would be nice.

OOC: ACO Ltd is the company that owns the Gaza port. Nag Ehgoeg's number one company.

The fact that you were only trading stock with nations that are trading with you kinda implied that Telosan was what we Brits call a Private Limited Company - where shares can only be sold to other parties with majority consent of the shareholders with no open trading on the stock market.

Otherwise (in the UK) you set an amount of shares that can be traded on the open market then whoever has the cash gets to buy as many of those shares as they want.

I realise that things are considerably different in the USA (like VAT is different from Sale's Tax) but I thought the principle was the same. My apologies for misunderstanding.

OOC- The Dominion and the Krantz Group are two seperate legal entities, Telosan. One is in Asia and one is in Europe. Ten for each....

Also, how much stock would one have to own to get a seat on the board of directors?

OOC: Not a problem Nag.

Dominion is a union, the countries within it may buy stocks but not Dominion itself.

No non-Telosani can be on the board of directors. A council of shareholders can be set up. If you're on the council then you could help the TSE get more trade partners, although you won't recieve the profits you still benefit by having your stock's value increase. Anyone want to be on the council?

Maybe we should open another chat for stock trading for all companies...this is getting cluttered and everyone's focused on my stocks instead of trade resources...I don't even know how many stocks were sold so far.

As is tradition, we have no name to launch our test vessel under. Austronesian Design Consortium only feels that it is right to have our clients choose this name.

OOC: Again, my apologies. ACO Ltd is not a seperate country. It's a part of Nag Ehgoeg. Hence buying only 5% each.

OOC- Telosan, the Dominion is a sovereign state. Seeing as I created it OOC, I think I can say what it is and is not. You saying the Dominion is not sovereign is like saying the USSR is not sovereign.

IC-

The Dominion will take 10%. The Krantz Group will take 10%.

OOC: Alright not a problem, just research Dominion today. Since Dominion consists of several countries than they all should have equal access to it, but I don't care enough about it to get into a debate over it.
