How the Parish Profits from Your Sales

By Sir DavidSpy

How it works

As some of you know, there are two methods used to generate commerce for your parish. The most wildly known and used is the tithe (or tax) rate. the second method is much more obscure and lesser know as a direct result, whenever you or another player sells to a parish, that parish generates a small amount of gold for the parish at no cost to you.

This is basically a win-win situation, not only are you making full profit from your sales but the parish you trade with is magically generating a small amount of gold for parish use based off the size of your sales.

Below are records of sales I transacted in different worlds with different ages. I made records of my sales from each of the four good types; weapons, food, stockpile resources, and banqueting goods. For each type I ran the test 3 times to bring to light the pattern used.

As you can see in the receipts above, the more you make from your sale, the more the parish you sold to makes. In the game however there are no fractions, all gold is rounded down.So the most gold your parish can make from any 1 packet you sell at full price(150) is 7 gold.
