+1

[Haspen]

"Is there much demand for silver, textiles or alcohol?"

"I do not believe so, however, there might be someone in need of silver, via market or elsewhere, as there are utensil and silverware workshops in the colony. You will have to ask around."

"Furthermore, any sightings of sea monsters?"

"No, not really. Why?"

"We've had a meeting with a Mermaid of the Karibs, apparently, and we chased it off with a salvo of cannonballs."

"A mermaid! Pray you killed it, for the locals say that mermaids have great memory and even greater anger against those who wronged them."

A) "Thank you. We're off to the market, then."
B) "I also have a question about... (insert topic here)"

[Kashyyk]

A - Let's go see if anyone wants to buy our stuff

"Thank you. We're off to the market, then." You, your officers, and Leon all stand up, shaking hands.

"Of course. May the Ouranos allow us to cross paths again." After this pleasant goodbye, you go for the market.

There, the market keeper explains what the colony has to offer, and that there is a specific order for silver.

Blackspice: 225 Coffers (>12 SL) priced 790 Ducats each.
Crimsonpeel: 140 Coffers (7 SL) priced 570 Ducats each.
Puffcloth: 95 Barrels (19 SL) priced 2050 Ducats each.
Spicebark: 120 Coffers (6 SL) priced 160 Ducats each.
Sugar: 110 Sacks (11 SL) priced 65 Ducats each.

Pointas Market is currently buying Old World Textiles and Alcohols at Company Value.
Pointas Market has a standing order for delivery of 8 Barrels of Silver, 9.500 Ducats each, for total of 76.000 Ducats, to be delivered before 15th Midwinter.

The Purser grimaces at the mention of Sugar, while First Mate states the obvious.

"Parting with eight barrels of Silver will give us enough to at least meet the quota of the Charter, no?" The Purser looks into his ledger.

"With what we have in the coffer, and from the delivery of silver... yes, we end with a surplus of over eleven thousand Ducats left. And we still have thirty barrels of Strongsugar, too."

A) "But we won't trade here!"
B) "Alright, let's trade some... (insert trade good here)"
C) Consult the Ledger.

[Maximum Spin]

B, I vote we do that, then try to make our way back via the Florida Keys and Bahamas and see if we can't dump the rest of our alcohol at a decent price.

[crazyabe]

Who remembers the fastest route out now? We ought to dump our remaining company goods and get a move on back towards *civilization* with our vast amount of black spice soon, and knowing what stops we *have* to make will make determining the dumping of goods much simpler.

[zemaj]

Is there any stop we HAVE TO make?  If it is avoidable at all, we should do so and just gtfo... its already Mid-Winter, and the Commission is before the end of Late Winter, so...

In addition to selling the 8 Silver, I think we should unload all the other Old-World goods, buy 127 Blackspice (enough to finish the Commission, and have an extra 2 in case of spoilage), 25 Puffcloth (its the cheapest here of anywhere it has shown up by far), and 5 Sugar (because may as well spend the rest on something...) and book it straight back to Lusia, posthaste.  If we do that we MIGHT get back home before Late Winter ends, and thus the Commission reduced.


EDIT:
or maybe 20 Puffcloth and skip the Sugar, for the sake of have some cash, in case of?  We would have to land somewhere to need any cash, and the idea is to avoid exactly that if possible.  Not sure how likely a forced landing is, or if cash would help in that case....

[Haspen]

Thanks for noticing, Puffcloth should have off-season price right now

[Kashyyk]

C - let's check the numbers, just to be certain, but it soundslike selling some of the silver, plus our Old World stuff, filling up, and then booking it for home is the best plan

"Let me consult the ledger first."

"Of course, Captain." He opens the heavy book for you.
