Arms & Goods

Trade

Only the rich deal in coins. Most trade is an exchange of raw materials, goods, or service. Frequent trades often grow into ongoing pledges of service, cooperation, or protection.

Simply, if you hope to trade you should have a good answer to the question “What can I offer that they would value?”.
