User blog:Oioiaussie/A way to get round the lag when chaining?

Hi all,

I am experimenting with the following: So far, I feel this has improved my bonuses.
 * observing my village until the lag occurs. This can usually be observed by the smoke on the stores stopping for a second or two
 * then, and only then, starting to collect taxes for the chain.

I'd be interested in other wiki contributors' opinions and experiences.
