Discussion about upgrade of Bridgewater stone mine

Ok today we will talk about the stone mine of Bridgewater.

Has you know, has soon the good king teleport back the trader in France, Somerset will have 2000 irons, 750 are to be sold at Worcester at 18p (the price we paid).

Now that leaves us enough irons to also upgrade Bridgewater stone mines.

Now why upgrading stone mines when England have surplus, well because is cheaper for us to get stone for BW mine then buy it.

The cost of stones exit that mines right now are 12.51 by stone, after the upgrade that will be 12.57, again I remind that price of stone in England is right now at 14.5p each, you can see the economy since we consume around 55 stone a day if all mines are full, that will reduce to around 30 stones a day.

That means we will still need to import stone, just need to import less.

Now if we do those upgrade, after that we just need to raise back treasury to 100k, so we can have a nice safety funds in case of major purchase that need big grant (example teleport to France), or need to raise an army fast.

That should take a month maybe two and after that we can plan to raise mine wage of all mines.

But immediately after the upgrade (because we need to be sure that BW mines is full that give us more money with the free maintenance) we should raise iron mines wage equally with other mines of Somerset.

Now here the number of the cost of upgrade of BW mines.

Upgrade of stone mine Bridgewater

11 to 12 = 120 stones and 81 irons

We remove the free maintenance:

30 stones and 20.25 irons

Real cost of upgrade: 90 stones and 60.75 irons


12 to 13 = 120 stone and 117 irons

We remove free maintenance:

30 stones and 29.25 irons

Real cost of upgrade: 90 stones and 87.75 irons

13 to 14 = 210 stones and 150 irons

52.5 stones and 37.5 irons

Real cost of upgrade: 157.5 stones and 112.5 irons

14 to 15 = 210 stone and 150 iron

52.5 stones and 37.5 irons

Real cost of upgrade: 157.5 stones and 112.5 irons

15 to 16 = 210 stone and 150 iron

52.5 stones and 37.5 irons

Real cost of upgrade: 157.5 stones and 112.5 irons

16 to 17 = 210 stone and 150 iron

52.5 stones and 37.5 irons

Real cost of upgrade: 157.5 stones and 112.5 irons

Total real cost = 810 stones and 598.5 iron

Total cost = 11745p + 10773p = 22518p

Now I open it to discussion before putting that also to vote, anyway LJS is not fast on teleport back of the trader.

Give your opinion please.

The net effect of the upgrades will be to produce 25 tons of stone per day more than we do now. Given accurate figures from Hypno, it will take 63 days for the cost of the upgrade to be paid off, and we'll be saving 362.5 pounds per day in stone that we needn't purchase thereafter.

I look forward for this upgrade and to the Unite wage of all mines in Somerset.

It will paid off in the future, and we will have less to import, my moto is, we will do it in the future, then do it now, to benefit every day from it.

For this after all we are making money, to invest them further....

I vote yes

PS: Today ,mines closes the doors after 7 hours of reset only again !!

I am a soldier and do not have much left for numbers.

I will abstain and follow the majority on this one.

As Lady Ellsbeth said, the long-term gains far outweigh the short-term losses. I say we do it.

Optimising of mines' production is standard position of Land of Freedom. So go for it and spare us from (Lady Ellsbeth's) rhetorics.

I m just trying to defend my reputation as "Lord Loudmouth who is a pain the derierre" my Lady.

well to put it in same faith as your own post.

Spare us from such comments.

They are uncalled for in a vote.

You should know better

Poliphilus behave or ... I will got get the whip

yes it is a good idea

like Ellsbeth said " The Long term gains far outweigh the short term loss to achieve such."
