It has been a while since Greg have been able to take out time for his favorite occupation. This month many issues was at least temporarily solved. He could go fishing on his own.
Greg noticed a camper trailer on the opposite side of the river. He would expect tourists at some point, but in January.

Knowing that the Mercier household is a bit stressed, due to the opening of the Schoole and Daycare Center, John Hallett comes over to give a hand. Danelle paid him 49$, very glad he fixed the toilet.

The first part of January was cold and snowy, most villagers spending time at home. These was the periods where someone like Simon Stone, living alone, could be a bit lonely. He was mainly focused on his paintings.

Under “Ent” jurisdiction there was a salary for the work done by the Assembly. That would also be the case in the new political structure. In this case there would not be a public vote. The three leading members would make a proposal, the assembly would vote between the suggestions.
Greg would distribute the suggestion, collects the votes and announce the results.

The school and daycare were not exactly buzzing with children but it was a start.
Mussete Mercier was helping her mother teach music, while Danelle Mercier was in the outside sandbox with a group of youngsters.

A treehouse had been built, in connection with the Schoole and Daycare Center playground. From time to time, Mateo Mercier liked to spend the night there

With Andy Mclain out of the picture for a while, no one could tell when the expensive TV/Radio and communication receiver would be finished. The villagers were longing for connection to Ent City State media, but the construction was stranded.

There was a lot of activity at the River fashion house, but not everyone was satisfied with the stylists choices.

Botan Nara was sent by his wife, to pick up Daichi from daycare. It would of course not make his life easier that he forgot to bring warm clothes for their child. Shina got an instant headache lasting several days.

Greg came back to the exact same fishing spot at the river, where he had been earlier this month. He noticed that a cottage was raised, where the camper trailer had been earlier. This must be one of the “free farmers” Lone St. John had mentioned, that would be colonizing the river banks, north of “Greg’s River”. He could easily imagine how hard life would be for them the next few seasons.

Botan Nara makes breakfast, while the women and his youngest child have fun. He will soon be forgiven the small mistake he made a few days ago.

Haven’t explained this before, but the tax from “community” enterprise is not a random number, it is a mix of how much money the village has and how many visitors was in the “shop”
Pegasus: 0,012 x combined cash + $50 / visitor
Laundromat: 0,00075 x combined cash + $5 / visitor
Fashion House: 0,0014 x combined net value + $225 / visitor
In the future we will also have Tax from Trade Station, that will be the combined consignment fee from all trade, no matter if “local” or “free settlers”. (to make it easier will still mention sales before fee in sales list)
-----------------------------------
The Daycare may not work probably, at least I did not the first time. But will include the concept of school and daycare, although it does not actually happen like that in-game (as with the pickup of Daichi Nara)
The caravan was auto-settled (on an open lot) by a couple of the construction workers, build a proper home for them, shuffled their personality’s and edited their looks. Not to be confused with the “workers” when they come back.
Made Elea grow up (blowing), otherwise autonome
