Descrição
The cycle of life cannot turn without commerce and trade. A coin is in the shape of a wheel, after all. Society officially considers merchants “low” and base, since they don’t produce goods, but without them, a brewer cannot get their sake to the geisha house and a tanner cannot get their leather to the attendant of a samurai family.
Tradespeople can become hubs of a community. Their shops along a village’s main street help the village grow into a town, and perhaps even a city, as people flock there in search of goods. Such hubs become places to learn local and regional news, as strangers from all backgrounds come to mingle, gossip, and trade. Those who have grown up surrounded by such activity learn to understand the pulse of a community.
