The Royal Price Maker's Honest Practices
The story begins with a queen who employs a price maker tasked with setting fair prices for her purchases. This price maker is known for his honesty, often advising the queen to pay more than she desires when buying and charging less when selling. However, the queen's greed ultimately leads her to dismiss the price maker in favor of a new 'price master,' who becomes focused on maximizing profits at the expense of fairness. This shift initiates a series of unsustainable pricing practices that create issues in the kingdom's trading.
