Trade Contracts


Recommended Posts

To promote more interaction between players with regards to the economy

 

Traders put up Contracts in a port for x tons of a commodity to be shipped to another port within a specified time interval, together with the commodity, and funds to cover the contract.

Haulers may then accept the contract, specifying how much they will take, and paying a per ton sum of money as determined by the Trader, and receives a 'contract' document.

Upon arrival at the destination port, the Hauler cashes in the contract and is paid a per ton sum of cash, also as determined by the Trader.

 

Thus, if the Hauler is caught and divested of the goods on the journey, the Trader will not be losing out since the Hauler put up a deposit on the goods. If the Hauler so wishes, he could then obtain the goods elsewhere, so as to complete the contract.

If the contract expires, then the Hauler is left with the merchandise, and the Trader with the deposit.

 

The Trader may remove any un-negotiated contracts or part thereof, at any time.
