you can buy them a 1s a piece from the beginners center. I'll be making more soon as soon as I can get cheap purified water.

it doesn't look like anybody can sell purified water at 1s as kershan wishes to buy.
Zoric prices are higher than on other worlds.
btw, it seems a bit strange that government sells fried ostrich at 1s which is the lowest possible cost (assuming you buy all raw stuff at 1d, which is far from being the case all the time), or maybe I am missing something...

pitch is right. poeple need to wake up and do the math on the entire supply line.

pallet of planks cost at least 50s to make. seems noone realy seem to relize that though. this is why noone was making wood. and noone was repairing there buildings.

...this is what it comes to?? the math is just to hard?? :P lol

if u all notice we only need use 1 pallet of planks and 50 electricity to make 100 wood. so it is actually cheaper than u think. and about the drinks im currently making some for 9d each in akina.

drinks at 9d?
yeah because you got fruits at 2d, when production cost is 3.4d
so it wont last for long :)
or you got these when DJ88 changed his buy/sell prices from 5d/6d to 2d/3d (selling his stock at a loss.

edit: okay, fruits theoretical cost is 1.5d assuming you get fert at 5d and raw water at 1d
the bottomline is that we need more raw materials/energy at 1d if everybody does the maths from virtual prices. (EDIT 2: which should be easier now thanks to carian)

the point i raised about government meat is still valid though

now we can get drinks at 8d cuz keshan sells purified water at 8d. currently raw water is hard to get at 1d cuz only 1 person is selling it at that price even though im selling electricity for 1d. selling food is also another problem. government sells deep fried ostrich at 1s when the cost to make it is currently 2s.
