'''''Exception:''' Money from deed and contract purchases go straight to the king.''
A new trader starts out with 1 silver coin in funds. Periodicallythroughout the month, the king will distribute new funds to traders, provided the trader has sold at least 10% of what it purchased. You can see what amounts a trader has bought and sold with the [[Path of Knowledge|Get Info]] ability. The ratio of bought to sold needs to be at least 1:10 (0.1 or higher on Get Info).
The envoy of the king will sometimes redistribute items on the trader to other traders and players in local will see.
Buy 1 silver worth of player made items off the trader.
Sell back the player made items as as you bought.
If you are able to sell back all the player made items you bought, then the trader should have a ratio of around 0.50 5. of Of course if the trader is a citizen of a deed, then a portion of the coin you put on the trader will go into deed upkeep so you won't be able to get the full 1s back.A ratio of at least 0.10 1 is needed to get funds off the kingdom pool.
Once a Trader's ratio has been corrected, it may take a few days or a server restart before the trader start acquiring coin off the kingdom pool. I'm not quite sure how often the mysterious figure visits the traders, buying random stuff off of them which replenishes some of the trader's coins from the kingdom pool.
This is speculative, however It seems I have been able to get 1 trader that was suffering from its 28 day ratio reset back in working condition. I won't make any guarantees this will work but if your trader hasn't been collecting any coin, a 1 silver investment could pay off. Detailed Knowledge of Traders is limited so this fix might have errors, but good luck. ~AAetius
