exportation

[Letarsier]

I founded a small colony and built a lumberjack, sawmill, storage, and the production is going fine. Now, how can I export it ?

I went to the regional map, but all the deals I could find were about buying...

If you advance to the land trading building and build it you can offer resources for selling, but i think it requires the 3rd tier of citizen

Thank you ! Just what I thought, the production is almost useless in the early stages : just build long houses to get taxes, gardens for food production and the services when they are needed.

Well it's not entirely useless, you do need resources to build your town.

It is, as you cannot produce every resources, so you will import them if needed, as soon as the roads are connected and the customs built.

Wood production = 36 denarii per week assuming 2 lumberjacks, 1 processing, 1 warehouse, 4 scriptoria.
Wood Trade (Region) = 59 denarii per week assuming 20 coin trade route, customs house, 2 scriptoria.

Production is far cheaper than importing and produces goods at a substantially faster rate, upwards of 4 to 7 times that of the regional import per week.

As for selling, the land trade is more about barter so it doesn't "sell." Water routes have options to flat-out sell products via trade license. This isn't really early game activity, though.
