The Blacksmith Owners Handbook

OPENING YOUR STORE

Interact with the sign outside to open and close your smithy.

The smithy will automatically close if you leave the region and have no worker employed.

THE LEDGER

The Ledger on your counter has tabs with various helpful pages for running your business.

Orders: Here, you can check on any incoming orders and when they are due to be collected.

Accounts: Check your profit and loss on a weekly / yearly level, and look at your previous transactions and Rep gain.

Staff: You can hire workers from here. You can change their pay and see their stamina.

To regain stamina, give them breaks or gift them food. A tired worker has their stats affected.

You can also see a worker's happiness level. Pay and stamina can affect this, as well as friendship level.

An unhappy worker is more discourteous to customers, affecting service reputation.

This page also allows you to fire an employee.

Shop: The employees' hours may be set here, and who works on which day.

You may also set who works at which department...counter or forge.

You can also rename your shop here.

Reputation: When a customer is pleased with service and price, you will gain reputation.

This fills in for the current region you are in, which will give you a bonus when full.

Any further reputation will keep levelling up your current region and spill into the next region.

This means that customers will start to appear from that region as they have heard about your shop.

Once that region's Rep has been filled, you again get a reward, and the Rep spills into another region.

Your earned shop Rep adds onto your Grandmaster total, building up your Renown levels.

STATS

Each NPC has 10 stats, and 4 of these come into play when working in a Smithy...

Speed: Affects the speed of service or how quickly items are crafted.

Accuracy: (forge only) the quality of work.

Charm: (counter only) Offsets any negative Rep from slow service, missed orders or bad choice of given items.

Stamina: how long they can work before tiredness affects their other stats.

The worker stats are affected by age but additionally gain experience to level up the stats used in their current job.

Specific recipes and items may also increase (or decrease!) the worker's stats.

PRICING

Prices in the Smithy are non-negotiable. You will be paid the going rate for each item based on type and quality.

STOCK & STORAGE

The large shelving unit in your Smithy is used for holding orders, displaying stock and ordering more materials.

You can move items around and make sure you keep the ore supplies high for your workers to use.
