	Expiring trade deals Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Attention all citizens and officials to whom this concerns:
The following deals will expire within the next 5 turns:

Dyes to France: expires in 1 turn.
Horses to France: expires in 5 turns.
Dyes to Greece: expires in 5 turns.
Dyes and 5gpt for Ivory with Rome: expires in 5 turns.

Once those deals expire, we will be able to renegotiate those deals, possibly for better terms. I advise the president to renegotiate with the following priorities in mind:
#1: Hard cash (lump sum). We need a way to finance further purchases in the field of military and civilian production.
#2: Gold per turn.

Note regarding Ivory: I recommend that we continue the Ivory deal with Rome (after negotiating for the best terms possible of course) unless we acquire a luxury from Persia before the deal with Rome ends. We need a 3rd luxury to keep some cities functioning.
Note regarding tech trade: If the Foreign Ministry decides to look into the option of using luxuries to lower the price of Theology, I recommend that we buy it from Greece in 5 turns, since they will give us the best deal, due to their relatively-friendly attitude towards our nation.

If anyone wants to comment on my suggestions, this is the place. I will update this post as I hear your suggestions.

Once those deals expire, the leaders with whom we are trading will offer to renegotiate those deals to continue them for an additional period of 20 turns.

Just a note. This is 1.21, the leaders will NOT automatically contact us, unless they want out of the deal. WE must take the initiative and contact THEM.

I heard mention that the dye deal with france ends soon, could we stop the trade and as I heard elsewhere give it too greece as a part of theology deal. Lets face it, the idea of making ALL of the AI's loose tons of shileds is so funny, it along make the sistine chapel a good deal.

We have enough dyes to trade with both. In fact we already are.
