There is no way to bring more asteroids into a system, you're pretty much forced to set up your major industrial hubs in sectors with lots of high value asteroids.

Oh okay, well for that sector, since it belongs to you personally, nothing is illegal there. So what you can do is set up your space fuel/weed complexes there, and not have them be attacked by police forces.

IIRC, the Unknown sector between Montalaar and New Income that is sold in auction in X3R (aka Avarice) had nothing in it. No Asteroids. I recall many threads lamenting that you pay a billion for nothing.

There is no way to move Asteroid or Mine from one sector to another. (There might have been an exploit to do that, but that is not necessary.)

Find sectors with good 'roids. Build Mines on them. Then set up CLS Mk1 (Commodity Logistics, Internal) ships to deliver products to stations that need those resources.

For example: you need Energy in Avarice. Barren Shores has Silicon. Build Mines. Then build as many Crystal Fabs as the Mines can support. Add Bio and Food fabs to feed the Crystal Fabs. Add just enough SPPs to power the whole lot. (What I did was to tow all the Mines close to each other and join everything into one Complex.) There will be surplus Crystals.

Build SPPs to Avarice. Add CLS Mk1 ship to deliver Crystals from Barren Shores to Avarice SPPs. Now Avarice has Energy.

Please explain what the link has to do with OP's question! Clicking on it just shows X-Tension files while the OP mentioned they would play X3: Reunion.

I did check my saves:
  • X3R: No Asteroids. None. You can choose the name of sector, if you win the auction. I chose Legend's Home
  • X3TC: 15 Asteroids and some Teladi stations. Name of sector is Unknown Sector
  • X3AP: 15 Asteroids and some Teladi stations. Name of sector is Avarice. Avarice in X3AP
