Korden's Pantsmithy

Korden - 9:00 AM

You enter your pantsmithy, finding that the simple pants store seems set up already for you. The display windows are empty currently and the store for the most part is empty. You see your counter is clear and ready for you to use and the forge and sewing supplies behind the counter are brand new. Some stairs lead up to the second floor, where your own personal room is since you'll be living here now.

There's a note sitting on the counter along with a gift. You open it up to find five cotton and five leather.

"Thank you for using the Speedy Lizard Delivery Service! Here's a little gift from me and good luck with your new shop! ~Daniel"

As a crafter, you'll have to decide what objects to create using materials and shop upgrades. While you never have to worry about using up your forge or your sewing set, your materials will run out! After you've crafted something, you can put it up for sale in your store at whatever price you like. Normally, everything has a suggested price, which is the average, but you can sell higher or lower depending on what you want. If you run out of materials, make sure you buy some more from another shop so you can continue to craft items you can sell!

Also, keep your Energy level in mind while working. You start each day with 10 Energy. You expend Energy whenever you do something tiring. Some tasks require more energy than others. If you're ever low on energy, try eating some food or relaxing in the hot springs!

Finally, you'll have to watch the time as well! Certain shops are only open at certain times of the day. Whenever you move to a new area or perform an action, the time will tick by. Make sure you get a proper amount of rest every day as well! If you don't, you might start with less Energy in the morning!

That should be all for now! Good luck running your business!

Korden - 11:00 AM

You spend some time creating some Battle Bell Bottoms using one Cotton and one Leather each. In the end, your craft turns out pretty well!

-2 Energy
-2 Cotton
-2 Leather
+2 Battle Bell Bottoms

It's still morning and the city seems bustling. You've got plenty of time to do whatever you like. Is it time to open up shop and sell some wares or head into town to buy a few things?

Korden - 3:00 PM

You continue to make pants, whiling away the hours and creating items to sell in your store.

-4 Energy
-3 Leather
-3 Cotton
+2 Work Slacks
+1 Cotton Culottes
+1 Leather Shorts

You feel a bit tired after finishing up, but you finally have a full arsenal of pants. These should certainly be useful for a pantsmith such as yourself. It's the afternoon now, so there's still time to head out if you need and you can always open up shop.

Korden - 4:00 PM

You open up the shop and put up a sign noting that you're having a sale, marking all the pants you have at 10% under the suggested price. As you do so, you wait around for a decent amount of time. After about an hour, you finally get a customer coming in. He seems to be a middle aged farmer. He tips his straw hat to you. "Nice to meetcha. The name's Roy."

He walks in and takes a look around. "So you're one of the new shopkeeps in town, eh? I was just finishin' up selling my produce in the open market and thought I'd take a moment to relax in the park when I saw a new store open. I figured I'd take a look around..." He wanders around for a bit and seems interested in the Worker's Slacks. "Hm...These look like they'd be helpful for workin' in the fields. And only 90 Gold? Hrm...I can't say I don't have a reason to buy it. I'm convinced. Here ya go." Roy places a sack of 90 Gold on the counter and takes the Worker's Slacks with him. "Thanks for the new slacks, newbie. If you're ever lookin' for fresh produce, my farm's just on the outskirts of town and I sell my crops every morning in the town square. See ya 'round." Roy walks out with his new purchase.

-1 Worker's Slacks
+90 Gold

You've made a sale! You can continue to keep the shop open and try to sell more or close up for the day and find something else to do.

Korden - 6:00 PM

You wait around a couple more hours until another customer shows up. This one is a man with some light leather armor and cat ears. You can see daggers sheathed on his belt as well. "Hey there! Nice shop. So you sell armor or something?" He heads over to the battle bell bottoms he saw on display. "These look useful. But a little pricey. How would you say parting with this for 80 Gold instead of 90?"

Sometimes customers will try to negotiate prices. Try to get the price as high as possible without losing their interest!

"Alright, alright! Geez, don't bite my head off!" Felix hands you some coins and purchases the leather pants before heading out.

-1 Battle Bell Bottoms
+85 Gold

Korden - 7:00 PM

You stay open for another hour, but no new customers seem to come in. You're still a pretty new shop and this isn't the most populated area...
