When considering trade goods, it's essential to note that the prices listed are approximate for various types of goods. For instance, 10 pounds of wheat might be roughly equivalent to 10 pounds of barley or rice. However, factors such as scarcity and demand also play a significant role; for example, a region experiencing famine may see increased prices for food and related items. In summary, these prices should be viewed as guidelines that can be adjusted at the Game Master's discretion.
