Consider taking on Water by the barrel
The Cerulean Titan has ordered you to transport his barrels, but his real interest is in assessing your ability to make a profit. And there might be profit indeed in leaving some water behind for more expensive – and lucrative – cargo.
On the other hand, free is free and it might be wise to keep some cash on hand for emergencies – or for opportunities.
"What’ll it be?" the Bored Overseer asks, chalk in hand.
How many barrels should he mark for loading?
- [0 Taler] All of the Titan’s barrels. (This will take up 3 Fardels of your hold)
- [0 Taler] Take on only a small increment. (This will take up 1 Fardel of your hold)
- [-30 Taler] Fill your hold to the brim with water. (You will not be able to take on any other cargo.)
- [-15 Taler] Take on one more fardel
- Do not take on any water at this time
