Setup • Wheat is available for sale in each country. • Wheat is exactly the same in both countries. • It can be purchased for two pink cards in Pinklandia or for one blue card in Bluestan. • Wheat is available in unlimited supply at these prices. • Your objective is to purchase as much wheat as possible, no matter where it comes from. • You do not care how much wheat other people buy.
