once you've sold the stones in the market, you start producing more stones in your mines.
then once you've sold those stones, you produce more stones.
you keep doing this until you have enough money to build another mine.
then you sell your stones from 5 mines, and produce more stones.

it basically continues like that.

so just keep getting more stones and mines forever?

You dont have to, you can diversify into other industries for example I have

- Plantations
- Mines
- Textile Factories
- Electronics
- Jewellery

The only problem with spreading out as far as I've is that Researching doesn't seem quite as cost-effective as focusing on a couple of industries.

It might take a little longer but the different industries make the game ALOT more fun

Thats why I couldn't stand producing only power, it would bore me to death. Personally I produce (and usualy sell myself)
Jewelry
TVs
Leather Jackets
Gas
I own all the building associated with these and currently run 10 RCs
Its slow as some RCs cover 3-4 different researched I want to have but I think its worth it for the extra challange

Well all depends on your comfort zone, one of the reasons why I quit last time was the complexity^ of running my own company (that and daily contracts).

^was taking me an hour each day to set up production runs. However was earning abnormal profits with it.

when you've just started, it's a good thing to keep selling stones for a while until you've got a good amount of cash, there's MANY different things you can do in the game, many different things to make and sell, but it never hurts to have some good cash to start those things off with

No doubt you need a solid base for moving out into other areas and raw materials are the best for that. I would pick an industry that I wanted to expand on ie jewelry and build the most basic thing, Mines.
Produce stones to begin with then gold then build a jewels factory then begin selling yourself. It also gives you time to asses each stage of the chain and see whats making money and if its even worthwhile to climb to the next stage.

I would recommend you stick with your mines and wells just a bit longer. Keep producing stone and water as it gives a nice profit for starters.

Why don't you head to the HELP section in game. There is a list of every product that can be produced. Find a "MAIN" product that can be retailed and start building buildings that are required for it. (Keep in mind the following products provide a little or no profit: [with the exception of Special building/contest items and beef/chicken] Silver, Silver Necklaces, Steel, All fruit and food.)

After you have built the buildings required buy the products needed to produce your product off the market. This will free up building slots which are worth a great deal of caps. Then either retail the product yourself or sell it to another player, depending on which gives more profit.

I don't understand this sentence:

After you have built the buildings required by the products needed to produce your product off the market.

My spelling mistake.

Oh ofcourse that is what you mean, yes now it makes sense.

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 23.06.2009, 14:12

ok i tried selling the stones at the market yesterday at 0.01 below the bottom price now everybody has undercut me (taste of my own medicine) and the price has gone down by 0.5 and someone put some ridiculous 18 million on there which will takes ages to sell so do i buy mine back and undercut again or do i just wait it out

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 23.06.2009, 14:20

It will not take ages to sell.
Stones go very quickly, so you do not have to sell lower then the lowest price, it is not neccesary and it will only cost you caps.
Just wait, it will not take long.

Besides, patience is required in this game, believe me.

If you're desperate for money buy them back and send them to me I'll give you 24 if on realm 1, 22 if on realm 2.
