Well.....i figure while im researching new industrial technologies, im gonna sell of some coal on my island.....currently i have 500,000 tons of bitonimius coal ready for trade...mainly looking for either, tech, steel, or industrial supplies and differnt things

additionaly, i can sell 5,000 tons of bananas a month......luxuries i guess.....please? No international economy yet :(

I'll like to buy all the coal after you give me a price.

i was looking for an offer actualy

$200 to $300 a ton.

ok lets average it to $250 and with 500,000 tons worth that should come to about, $125,000,000 if my math serves me. As far as transportation, i am just a new country but i do have a rather large portcity at the moment, would you be able to send cargo ferries? Should only take about a month to transport all of it

secondly, as we mine we will be getting more, would you be interested in 20,000 tons a month? or will this transaction be enough?

I'll be sending 100 C-140's to pick it up. If you have no airstrip for landing one will be built. How about 10,000 a month?

currently we have a makeshift airfield. we will expand the runway to accomodate for the larger aircraft than we are used to having. In the mean time, we will be packaging the coal to be transported immediatly, as a token of gratitude for beign our first international trader we will pay for 10% of your plane fuel cost, (just tell me what your total would be) ive calculated that each c-130 (based on actual facts) carries about 42 tones each, with 100 of them that will be 4200 per trip, will you be making round flights for the next few weeks?

Round flights yes, the planes will not stop until all the coal is across AZ boarders. The fuel costs: For each plane lets say you just pay $50 for each new plane that lands at your airstrip?


NOTE: Our C-140's can carry up to 20 tons.

???

ok, sorry i updated my post i was ready about wrong c-130 new math then 20,000 per group load meaning 25 trips total, leaving 2,500 total aircraft landings, and bringing fuel cost on my part to $125,000

cost from you: $125,000,000
my gratuity: $125,000
net total you owe: $124,875,000


check it if you want im just running this through my head

C-140's are already in route.

roger that, ill add the funds to our national piggie bank (worlds largst ya know, really sucked when we needed money ya know....couldnt find a big enough hammer, or get the guts to break it.....we love you piggie)

with that all said and done......anyone want to buy bananas as a luxury resource?
