It was the lot number 8 last time for the orders to Brazil from ABC company. What lot number is this order? Do we have to use the sequence number 9 or 1 in this your direct order?

Delete "the" in "the lot number 8".

I don't understand this sentence.

"in this your direct order" is problematic
in this direct order :?:
in your direct order :?:
in this direct order from you :?:

Probably you can delete "the" from "the sequence number".

But until I understand the whole sentence I can't be sure.
