The video provides a comprehensive guide on profitable trading strategies in the game "Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord." It details both passive and active methods of making money. Passive methods include running caravans and owning shops in towns, both enhancing the prosperity of the player’s settlements. The active approach focuses on direct trading with settlements and maximizes profits by leveraging trade skills, particularly the "Everything Has a Price" perk, which allows players to purchase settlements directly from leaders. Early game trading for skill leveling and monetary gain is recommended, including setting up trade operations in any town, not just player-owned ones.
For caravan formation, players need to recruit and equip companions, preferring better troops for safety and profitability. Specific trade routes, such as buying hardwood in Carbandziff and selling it in Amitatis, and trading luxury resources between Aserai and Sturgian territories are highlighted for their high profit margins. Additionally, maintaining a fast-moving party with cavalry units and adding more horses to increase carrying capacity is crucial. Engaging looters and Raiders for additional loot and smelting weapons for raw materials before selling are also advised to maximize profits.
