10.4 Commodities of Avalon and their use.

The more money-minded person may wish to use shops and stalls for purposes other than equipping themselves with essentials. It is possible to amass a great deal of wealth through prudent trading. This is particularly true when dealing with the raw commodities. All items sold in the shops and stalls have their basis in raw commodities - often mining produce from the mountainous villages, or arable crops from remote farming villages. The cities have great demand for these commodities, and many a daring merchant has risked life and limb to secure these goods for their homeland. Prices in the villages of Avalon are determined by the extent of their reserves and the volume of production. Conflict between the three cities to obtain these commodities is often cut throat and always competitive. COLLECT <commodity> is worth remembering to collect up and batch up all of certain commodities in one consistent group or pile.
