Once you’ve assembled the right caravan crew, you need to pick the best location to make the most profit. The best-earning caravans are the ones placedat the edge of themap, preferably within the borders of a faction, not at war. This will keep your caravan safe from any invading forces, and the prices will remain stable.
Make sure to have 3-4 wealthy villages with workshops nearby to maintain your supply line. Workshops use resources to create products, and the caravan distributes them across the map, which makes you money.
