Merchants trade ownership when the contract is traded.
If you change [[kingdom]], you will NOT lose the contractanymore, since as long as you dismiss the merchant stays in . This has been confirmed by Rudie, Garfunkal, and Longshanks(Hexd). If you fail to dismiss the old kingdommerchant and switch kingdoms, you will not be able to take items off or add new items too it - but you will still be able to manage prices.
