This is a story about my tiny economy system. How do I supply myself. :3

Before I moved here, I decided to quit eRepublik. I gave my brand new q5 house, a few gold savings and my company to my friends. I wanted to help them more and it was only 3 days left to the next HW and SS medal so I was clicking for some days more for the benefit of my old military unit. (The money was spent soon: They invested in something smart program made a tiny firework somewhere in Asia and liberated a region for lulz.)

But at the same time I changed my mind and applied for German citizenship. I didn't want to get back my stuffs, so I started my new eLife without any money or company. Firstly I joined to the Red Army and the commune of KPeD. This was my only income: I got 100w food daily, and sometimes weapon. In that time if you had been working in Germany your wage would have been good enough buying only 80w from market, so our commune was (is) the best solution if you need goods instead of money. In a working community you can avoid the VAT and the tiny income tax, and the profit of your company owner. Nowadays the wage is 250 wellness, but it depends on bonuses. :3

Commune-work is good, but mixing it with manager work is much better, but it needs more care at managing. If you're a supplier too, forget the two clicking mode. In a commune a responsible person could organise the whole the production. Co-ordinate workers between companies, and ansure the Raw materials. Most workers have to work in raw-factories and only a small minority produces the goods which can be shared between communards.

Because of the game changes I started to be active again, but I couldn't fight so much - sometimes my friends kept me alive - so I have invested some real money in my game experiences (first time in my eLife). So I was able to buy the German license for 20 gold, I bought 5 iron companies (now these are the alu-mines) and could earn my first - and last - Battle hero medal in Ba-Wü. :3

In this days Mitter was the economic supervisor of the commune, and I showed him a plan. After I built the companies I was able to produce a little bit more iron which was good enough to serve a worker in a tank factory. So Mitter and I made a deal. According to our agreement he bought all my iron from market once a week, I donated back all the money, and I worked in his company for the tanks I had produced. So I got 9-12 tanks daily, but the average number was 10. I have been working for Mitter for more than 7 weeks long, and just the newest game rules forced us to suspend this co-operation. Anyway, this period was my golden age: I got weapons and some of them was replaced for food, so I could use all my 300 or sometimes 500 wellness with q5 weapon every day! Thanks to Mitter for letting me work in his company.

Since than everybody got a q1 food company and some grain-farm. This is only 200 wellness daily. When admins allowed us much consumption I went back to the commune. And during the latest half-prise company upgrade action I could upgrade the free q1 food-factory to q3 and 1-2 weeks later I founded an other q1. This meant 250+600+200=1050 daily wellness, but it seemed to be not enough for me. :3 I have migrated 2 alu-mines to fish pond to able to produce my raw need, and from the income of the three alu-mines I bought more food or tanks from market and try to save money for more companies.

I was thinking about upgrading my q1 food company too, but I have changed my mind. 20 gold is good enough for 2 more q1 company or an upgrade to q2. It is too much for it. So I would rather put this money to the monetary market and I have founded 2 more cattle farm. This is a little bit more than 300 FRW daily so now I can employ somebody in my q3 food company and still does not need to buy RAW from market. I'm lucky because I got very good worker and I appreciate his effort: I pay him always more than the best offer in the job market. If you had somebody worked for supplying yourself, you couldn't pay the VAT, so I can save money due to the employing even though his 'high' wage.

In this weekend I've founded a saltpeter mine too. (I'm not so rich, I had to take out a loan from my friends) By the help of this company I will be able to produce good enough WRM to start a new co-operation. Jimie promised me to reserve a place in his tank-factory.

What will be the final results? 1400 wellness + 10 tanks daily in case of total occupation. :3
