Alton Kanri, Human Cloistered Cleric/Battle Sorcerer of the Light

Alton and Marc will follow the Viscount and get some food. Alton will sit three seats down from the Viscount.
 


Alton

J. Alexander said:
The Viscount nods in greeting as alton and marc sit down then he asks "How goes the poultry business"

"Thank you for asking. We are ready to move out with assorted fowl of multiple species in hopes that we find a perfect fit for the climate and flora. We also have workers to tend the birds, as well as all needed supplies. How are your people's preparations moving along? "

With an arched eyebrow he says "They go well, very well I must say though at a slower and much more discret pace"

"M'Lord, you do have the advantages of being at home and having more advance notice..... But you are correct that we have no doubt gained unwanted attention with all of the silver being thrown around."

200 calves (20 male, 180 female)
200 colts, mostly females
Hire 50 cowhers/grooms
900 harnesses/horse collars
food for 600 animals for 180 days.

10 tons of salt
2 river boats
200 wheels for carts
1 ton of colored glass (different colors)

Furthermore, I can't believe that I didn't think about this: what kind of materials are need for the construction of a port that we aren't likely to find at our destination (we will probably find fresh wood, stones etc, but pehraps seasoned lumber, or particular engineering machines?)

Also, we enlist the services of both the least expensive legal company (that at 75sp/hour, and those of the most expensive (250 sp/ hour). We will use the least expensive for ordinary matters, and the most expensive if some authority tries to outcast us :)[/sblock]

Ederin shurgs, and adds nonchalantly "Besides, the D'Shai emperor already knows about our little colony, even if he hasn't still taken specific actions to stop us"

and this is accompanied by a sense motive check of 23 (sigh)
 

Pandak

[sblock=Mowgli/Scotley]After much searching in the city you find a set of twin brothers...one is a master brewer and the other a master distiller, they are named James and John. You find out that while exceptionally talented they have been dismissed from many companies as they tend to get a little wild in their experimentation on brews. Having said that..their skills are impeccable but more important they have a natural talent for their jobs. They ask for 5k silver up front with a hesitant expression and 50sp a month plust a percentatge of the profits.[/sblock]

[sblock=JA & Scotley]Offer them each a 10% share of the company (2.5k silver current value each, or 5k silver combined) with no monthly pay - they get to own a part of the company (rather than just a share of the profits) without actually putting any money down. (Shares 'paid' to them to be split evenly from Pandak & Alvar, leaving Pandak with 12.5 shares, Alvar 7.5 shares, and James and John 2.5 shares each).[/sblock]
 

Hennett, ranger/druid

Hennett, embarrassed because of his tardiness, joins his comrades-in-arms for the meal, blushes, clears his throat and proceeds to eat like a starving man.
 

Alvar

Add another 30,000 or 30 silver shares to Alvar's investment in the company. We just bought ourselves two heavy and six regular cranes. I'll also work out a design for some walk on/walk off moving ramps to expidite the delivery of people and livestock. There really is no reason they should be off-loaded by crane.
