What you’ll build

Build a waterfront market with stalls and a weighing table, then load a chest boat with cargo and sail it there against the clock. Haggle with the trader for silver, buy something rare to sell back home and count up your profit.

Finish line: Your market port is built, your voyage is timed and you know your profit in silver.

Bonus challenge: Run a second voyage with a different cargo. Which trip earned more silver per minute at sea?

You’ll need

  • A boat with a chest
  • Iron nuggets as silver
  • Item frames
  • Trade goods
  • A family member as trader

You choose

  • My market town's name
  • My cargo: furs (leather), amber (honeycomb) or walrus ivory (bone)
  • My opening price: ___ silver

Stuck?

  • A chest boat only carries one rider, so the trader should meet you at the market.
  • Load the cargo before you set off. Check it's really in the boat's chest, not your inventory.
  • Losing track of deals? Write each one down as you go: what you gave and what you got.
