Disclaimer: there's some RP bullsh*t surrounding this whole project I'm working on, but for the sake of just sounding like I'm normal, I'm gonna shoot straight and just talk about what I'm doing in-game

Tl;dr at the bottom
Hello! (.___.)/
I'm Avio Yaken and I've recently started having the most fun I've ever had with EVE. Why? Because I now have a mission, that mission? To turn the Guristas Capital system of 6NJ8-V into the premier trade hub of the region of Venal. How do I plan to do this? Well - I'm gonna take advantage of the gaping opportunity out here.
See, Venal is not like a region in low security or high security space, it is unable to receive goods in a way that's reliable aside from using expensive and vulnerable jump freighters or decaying wormholes. As a result the region's markets suffers two problems.
Goods are both in short supply, and expensive. There are large, gaping holes on the market of Venal and stuff that would be dirt cheap in high security space. In fact I found inspiration in all of this looking at how much Kestrels cost...Wanna know? Six million a pop, no fittings - just the hull. It's madness, but it made me realize value of assets isn't decided by Jita or the major trade hubs, that out here all these normal modules and ships that are worth dirt back in the mainland, can be worth a small fortune in Venal.
So for the past month, I've been running an industrial in initiative in 6NJ8-V, sourcing my own blueprints and materials to build a modest arsenal that's for sale in the Guristas Productions Shipyard station. All T1 goods, I dont have the logistics to support T2 mass production - But T1 mass production I can handle just fine. Besides, T1 modules are a widely ignored market that is missing, thus providing me an opportunity to seize the moment and be the sole source of X module out here.
And yes, T1 modules do sell and have their uses out here. Specifically? I'm building a market for fresher pilots to use, I'm not catering solely to characters with high sp counts and only ever use T2 modules - I'm building a market that both new pilots and veterans can take advantage of.
Speaking of new pilots? As a means to get some additional hands to help me gain more materials and become apart of my customer base,I've handed out free ventures and badges, exploration frigs and a few missioning frigates to newbies and other fresh meat that come to the region, it's to help themget settled in the system. I'll buy mission loot off them, or materials and datacores, I try to make things profitable for them.
Venal's current trade hub is N5Y-4N, purely for being a hotspot of mission runners taking advantage of a station that has four level 4 agents in it. Problem with this system is that it's crammed up the ass of the region in a pipe that has a dead end to it. One way in, one way out. 6NJ8-V on the other hand has far more access to the other stations of the region, specifically it's the only system that has access to the one system that has the only station where you can do research/invention - Y-4CFK. At the same time? 6NJ8-V is just a lore significant system for the Guristas given that it's the capital of the entire organization.
If you wanna get involved? I got need for materials if anyone feels like moving them up here. I also got buy orders up for command centers of anytype for 300k ISK a unit. Hell, I'm even buying metal scraps at 5k a unit because I've learned out here that Metal Scraps are a GREAT way to supplement your trit stocks.
If you wanna see a complete list of all my goods currently on the market, please check out my thread on the RP subforum "Intergalactic summit" where I have a list in the original post (Note: it's note the screencap, keep scrolling.)
Hope to see some new customers (.___.)/

Tl;dr
I'm building and selling T1 modules and ships in 6NJ8-V in an attempt to bring more trade to the system and make it the regional trade hub.
