Description
Everything has its price.
A market allows any local traders and entrepreneurs to make money, so increasing economic activity in a province. Such income can, of course, be taxed. Given that market days are also chances to enjoy life, the skills of geisha are also in demand. Any geisha agents recruited in the same province will have some experience of life.
Markets are the centre of life in any town or agricultural community, a chance to get together, gossip, trade, and buy something special that can't be made at home or by a neighbour. The peddlers who travelled between markets were seen as a necessary social class, but not held in much esteem. This dislike of outsiders and strangers was not particularly Japanese, but was echoed across the world in medieval times: tinkers and peddlers were welcome, but not trusted, and only for the duration of a market or festival. After that, sadly, they could expect short shrift.
