I'll cover his fee for the moment so we dont have to worry about the turn.  TCK can pay me back when they're next online.

We, Sharky's financial services as holders of the charts to Nordeland, agree to provide the ship Enterprise with a navigator to guide them to Nordeland for one back and forth journey, at a cost of .8 guineas.
This sum is to be paid upfront. Stealing the charts of the navigator or otherwise extorting proprietary information is to be considered against this contract and liable to incur a fee of 5 guineas.

happy sailing. And even this turn, a ship shall say to wool. If we can keep this rhytm, the trade will be quite profitable for a while, with good stability on prices.


Also @Es: I resent the notion that I am playing this as a cookie clicker. Not only I am not even engaging with the "clicker" mechanic ( which is buying ships and sending them places) unlike you, but I am also not following the path of greater profit for the sake of unique playstyle and of making the rest of the game work smoother by redistributing resources to those who most need them

tbh I don't have a quarrel with you, andrea.  egan already gave away the enterprise shares, I wanted to have some fun with them - thus the rhetoric.  you're a cool dude, it's fine.

I guessed that, not actually angry or annoyed. But I was at work during that whole giving shares thing and couldn't banter then.

Pls, Sharky's needs to keep our outstanding reputation. We use that to work, unlike mere traders who just point their ships somewhere random and get coins from the sky.

edit: by the way, I also feel a1s was the best candidate. I probably would have sold to him anyway, but I would have liked a seat at the table to try drawing a ship contract which doesn't cause deadlocks like those that happened.
But getting the shares or not, I get paid regardless.

Mid Winter, Y1
TURNTURNTURN
Spoiler: Actions processed (click to show/hide)

The fully repaired Warrick and Nsailor head south, whilst the Enterprise becomes the first ever ship to change destination, and heads north instead.
[2 Guineas spent on repairing the Warrick]

The Market is well stocked with Sand, with the price again declining by a hair. Glassblowers, now confident that their industry has room to grow, begin construction of new workshops and warehouses, ensuring demand will increase in the future.
[19 Sand Sold]

Dotty accepts two more donations, though she expresses exasperation at the now tied direction vote. She will pick a direction at random if the vote remains tied. Aywanez Enterprises and Lazy Jack's Investco receive due recognition from the Crown for their contributions.
[Aywanez Enterprises and Lazy Jack's Investco receive 2 Royal Favour each]

A coastal barge went missing this month, but these things happen. They aren't as well built as modern trade ships, you know.

The Jolly Crustacean returns from the south, but more excitingly, the Woolritter emerges from the north- unharmed, in good time, and jam-packed with bundles of off-white sheep residue.

Wool   - 0.85 Guineas per unit (+0)

OTHER OFFERINGS

NOT A MECHANIC BUT WORTH KNOWING: Optional Discord. Whilst gameplay is entirely confined to the forum, you may want to banter about the game with other players, in which case the Discord server may be to your liking.

ALSO I SHOULD CLARIFY: If Dorothy Horsegame sails North, she will not rediscover a route to Norderland, she will sail further north to a new destination.

I can not accept this. For 0.5975/share I would just sell you your shares, no questions asked. So...

FOXFOXFOX: Aywanez Enterprises gifts the remaining 2 shares to Vixen Volume Trading. Our contract is now complete.

Flabort on the other hand owes me some money. 0.1Gn outstanding and an additional 0.05 next turn. If this debt isn't paid, I will repossess the VVT shares I gave you.

Considering rumors of rising sand price, I have decided to lower the fee to 0.8 guineas. Usual discounts apply, so with advance payment it would be 0.6.

Note that beyond this point, discounts may start to disappear as we hit a floor. But we are not there yet.
