Type 7 for 200 units of gold?

You can use any ship. If you can't take 200 units on board at once you can always make several trips. You can make 2 trips on Type 6, which will cost you 16 millions less. Lol.

How can I fit 200t with only 2 4's and 3, 3 slots on a type 6?

I have an AspX and I cant find enough cargo space for 200 units

You don't. What I was saying is that you can use smaller ship and make several trips. Like in case with T6 (https://s.orbis.zone/ca2s) you can take 100 units or so and make 2 trips. This is an option if you don't want to spend too much money on another ship just for bringing gold to Lee Cheung. If you already have AspX you can outfit it to carry 120 units or so and it'll do just fine the same way. Just make 2 trips.

Another thing to consider, that might sway you towards multiple runs in a smaller ship is the infamous words:
  • Thats the ship I'm looking for, the one with the big haul
  • The rumour was right, good thing I found you first
  • All that tasty cargo
  • I've come a long way for what's in your hold, don't try to run
  • Other canned taunts may be used by NPC pirates but those are the main ones...
In essence, if you go balls deep into a T9 + a hold of gold for that engineer, it would virtually wipe you out if your cargo optimised, lightly defended, "cost efficient" T7 and it's high value load of pirate magnet cargo put you to a rebuy screen, so you're better off doing this "quest" in a few runs in a ship you are confident in, so you can either run away from or confidently fight said pirates. The other thought is if you are on PC and want an armed escort, I'll wing up with you? PM me to make arrangements if you want a wingman...

Ahh, I remember those days, when the following would be a pain, as M. Le Chardon has listed,
  • That's the ship I'm looking for, the one with the big haul
  • The rumour was right, good thing I found you first
  • All that tasty cargo
  • I've come a long way for what's in your hold, don't try to run
  • Other canned taunts may be used by NPC pirates but those are the main ones...
Chain interdictions, bulldog Anacondas, trying to unlock engineers; enjoy the trip, don't rush to your destination.

It wasn't so bad when carrying bought commodities, but when you were carrying mission only stuff, or mining only stuff like bromelite, I would quite cheerfully exterminate the entire family trees of the rotters that tried to steel my modular terminals (which used to be super rare) and bromellite (which required mining to get hold of)

It was perilous when I was running lesser ships, once I decided I'd had enough "of the rotters", I laser locked on getting a Python and started fighting all interdictions. The NPC kill count started going up and hasn't stopped growing.

They do need to come up with an Uber (not the ride sharing ones) class NPC that could cause even a full-bore Corvette some pain.

Ah, the Python. The first ship I put weapons on. She was brand new, armed. How did I know that stacking boom delivery missions way above my level meant that I would be chain interdicted and that 'deadly anacondas' would sneeze at my pulse lasers.. Really glad I didn't fly without rebuy.

That was how poor my fighting skills were and improved my skills at interdiction evasion:)
