The Jones Folly 2

We spent the next few days going thorough every spaceport and way station in casia, talking to refinery bosses, chating up the ...starbase ladies... eventually we got a lead....there was a Faction around vega that had retrofited an acient ship yard and had just produced a few new ships. The Avalon Aliance .... Apparently their trade in apples had provided them with enough money to start the restoration.

I hailed the factions leader a Cpt Corwin, and asked him about the ships...the ship we'd seen in Raxia wasnt his but he had a miner almost ready and the buyer had backed out for lack of funds...I asked what the price was and just about fell of my chair. 110 million credits....was that all! Ok I didnt have much more, but i had expected prices to be much igher than that, so with a silent prayer of thanks to Betsy I transferd the credits and had teh ships transponder codded over to me.

Me and the lads took the new ship on a cruise, she's bassically the same as the Jones Folly but with a much bigger cargo hold...13000 isos !!! I named her the JonesFolly 2 and we headed back towards Raxia....I was dying to show her off to the other miners....
