Prosperity of a city determines how much it consumes and how much money it makes. Now using 2x hardwood I bought for 13 each, I get a piece of coal that I can use to break that made down. Not only do you unlock more items in the forge, you also get materials worth more, just got 8 hardwood, 2 wrought iron, 1 crude iron. So cost: 68 The material I got in the end: 186 (wrought iron x2) + 47 (crude iron x1) + 104 (hardwood) = 337. You gotta gain that influence. I make my money from war, and when the war ends I’ll improve my fiefs, and attack bandits. Once I’m low on funds I’ll use my influence to encourage my nation to start another war. Join an army, destroy the enemy, and enjoy the loot. I’ll get around 150,000+denars by the time the war ends. wsmZ0.
