Caylus - The Trader

The Trader - A fanmade tile for Caylus. Designed by Dan Rosewater. Caylus is copyrighted and designed by William Attia. The game is published by Ystari Games.

After The Guild of Thieves, The Hospital and The Royal Luxury Tailor, Dan Rosewater has created another homemade Caylus tile: The Trader, a stone building.

Building the trader tile will cost one unit of stone and one unit of food. This will quickly add three victory points to your score and and one denier to your purse. Once built, The Trader will allow players to earn one resource (except gold) of their choice plus two deniers.

I personally think that Dan has hit the trader-theme with this mechanism: Players send their workers to the trader. These workers have to work hard, shift goods in the backyard and do all the difficult tasks. As compensation, this worker then receives a resource from their store plus a little bit of wage.
