Now let's find out if any off-island people
want to move to South Spratly Island...
[a clan of 105 people, with 500 ducks, moves into Cody's village]
Looks like I get animals, whether I want them or not!
Now it's time for what I call the Potlatch. It's a big party where you
give money and animals to your villagers, to make them happy. The bigger
your total Potlatch is, then the happier your villagers are, and the
more likely it is that people from other villages or other islands will
migrate to your village. Do you follow me?
[they all ask questions about the Potlatch]
Okay, great. So like I'm going to give the Yodi people $1960.
And 230 pigs.
I'll give the Sin Nombre people $1100, plus
all the ducks and boar we got in the hunt.
I'm giving $402 to Non Nomen. Plus our boars.
That's not very much.
I don't care. I don't want people to move to my village.
How about you, Sable?
I'm putting $1000 into my Potlatch. Plus 200 pigs.
Okay! Lots of partyin' on South Spratly Island! So - Yodi has the biggest
Potlatch, followed by Sin Nombre, then Sable, and last of course - Non
Nomen.
And how about the hotel? Is there partying at the hotel?
Yes, I'm happy to say, in its first year the hotel made a small profit.
I'm hoping for a much better year next year!
