I'll bet that every village has at least one motor vehicle with a
battery. Even a marginal junk battery that won't start a car or motor bike
will do.
 Solar distillers, rain/dew collectors and the like are dirt cheap to build
out of junk, if not absolutely free.  The only expense would be the silver
at $6 or so an oz. One oz .999 fine Bullion coins cost between $8 and $12
to literally make barrels of CS.
 If they have the infrastucture to get to the store or have things brought
in and the money to buy Microdyne, they can make their own CS a lot
cheaper...probably for less than 10 cents a gallon.
 How much does Mycrodyne cost?
