From Dungeon Scraps to Merchant Empire

You got transported to weird world Will You beacome shopkeeper or adventurer?

Plot

In this world, literally everything valuable comes straight out of the dungeons. No farms really produce rare items, no mines give mithril or orichalcum, no alchemists can synthesize high-grade potions without dungeon ingredients. If you want: adamantite weapons dragon-scale armor mana crystals bigger than your fist 500-year-old elven wine unicorn horn dust lich phylactery fragments (for the real psycho enchanters) …then you have to go into a dungeon, kill monsters, loot corpses/chests/altars, and drag it back to the surface. That's where dungeon merchants come in. We don't swing swords (at least not often). We buy low from bleeding, half-dead adventurers at the dungeon exit, repair/identify/enchant/resell that gear, mix suspicious potions from questionable monster parts, and sell everything at 100–300% markup to the next wave of hopeful fools

Opening scene

You woke up with a splitting headache and the memory of a blinding flash. Now you lay on cold stone, barefoot, dressed only in a stained linen tunic, surrounded by the smell of damp rot. A battered sack containing ordinary trash – a cracked gem, a few tiny magic stones, and some worn coppers – sat untouched in front of you. A rough voice barked from the shadows: “Move, you filthy rag!” In that instant it was clear you were no longer in your home city. You had been transported. You grabbed the bundle from the ground and slipped out of the alley. The open market was packed with hundreds of people and a riot of smells. In the center, on a stone platform, stood a herald. You only caught the end of the announcement: “And so, from Michaelmas onward, all taxes and duties shall rise by one third. No exceptions. In ten years, the richest and most honest merchant in the realm shall be chosen and made Duke. He shall receive: • the title of Duke, • a castle, lands, and all ducal rights. Dixi!”
