This is a lot of detail for Our Queen and I to implement. It seems in line with Civ1's Chryshe thread, and provides for Adam Smith in 9 turns. It is a proposal. Please post improvements, whatevers, and comments.
Jayne moves in 32 hours.
 
We have only two Vans coming that are not committed:
Fort Anarchy: Silk Van 42/50 in 2 is too late.
Bedfont Lakes: starting Van 0/50 in 10? 9? 8 at best?

That does not seem like enough flow. So perhaps these IPRB?
Dellham: ocean to plains road, Van 24/50 in 7, IPRB $13 now.
Routskilde: Rule of 28, IPRB $4, Van in 4, Silk?
We can plan to IPRB $13 on several cities at 1500AD turn.
 
I think rushing some caravans is a good plan, we're building caravans not only to establish trade routes but also to build wonders so we need lots of them coming soon. We need to keep a good flow of caravans to India and Persia to keep money coming in to conquer the world.
Building Adam Smith will give us lots of money in the long run, money we can spend on better things than maintaining improvements. :D
