Ship High In Transit<-historically stamped on bales of manure

As an FT, I'd like a reason to haul freight, and/or manufacture stuff independent of shipbuilding. There was a time that I could build ships on spec, but those days are gone, as sociaties make their own ships.

The majority of the code already exists to have NPCs buy raw/manufactured goods that need to be hauled in from elsewhere. Maybe put European buyers in Sumerset. Another idea would be to have NPCs spawn in red zones who pay to have things hauled in or out.

It isn't really about the money either, as money isn't that hard to get, it's a matter of adding a new demension to the game that is cost effective compared to time, as well as rewarding according to risk.

I do like the idea of hitting a npc and getting more materials from them...
