I feel like you should know that it's "principal" in this case.


oops.  Thanks, I missed that.

Anyway, can we even unload half a unit of sand?
I would strongly prefer cargo to be handled in full units.

All hate for USURY aside, we need another investor even with a loan or investment from Happy Crab, if we seek to purchase a new ship. So, that rather depends on whether the people who are now selling their sand receive money this turn or the next.

Quote from: Weird Squid ausladentvertrag
Ten (10) units of sand shall be disemplaced from the Schrullige Tintenfische (hereinafter ship) and sold on the market at prevailing prices. The proceeds from this vendiment shall be referred to as money. Ten (10) units of trinkets shall be purchased from the market at prevailing prices using money and intraposed into the cargo hold of ship. Any remainder of money shall be divided equally into four parts and distributed evenly among the undersigned; if an amount of 1, 2, or 3 Pfennigs should be left over after division, that amount will be considered to remain in a joint account until further pfennigs are acquired sufficient to make an even distribution. Ship will then depart for the Nearsouthlands to exchange trinkets for sand and, upon its return, the process laid out in this contract will start over unless further agreements have rendered it void.

Signed,

Looks like they've agreed on a contract to sell. So does that mean we can get some investments into a new ship this turn?

So, that rather depends on whether the people who are now selling their sand receive money this turn or the next.
It's this turn. Does that change anything for anyone, or should I run the turn?

I'm voting for run the turn, as I don't think any of us have enough cash to make a confident investment at this point. Others may be more reckless than I am, I suppose.

Good to know we get the money this turn. Updating my amounts. No further actions from myself.

We need 12 florins for a fully loaded ship. Unless the people who just sold sand all want to buy 1 florin shares for, like, 7% or something, we're going to have to wait.

You could always take out a loan.

They are VERY affordable rates, far better than even Sharks And Loans rates in the original game.

You only have four florins to loan which is still inadequate!
