### 7.2.2: City purchasing

Some cities will issue `buy` or `sell` orders on their own behalf for certain goods. These may be produced by player units through the use of skills, or bought from other locations and transported to the buying cities.

All cities buy 1-10 wild horses a month at a base price of 15 gold.

Port cities purchase 100 fish per month at a base price of 2 gold.

Cities that are growing (have less than 9500 population) purchase wood and stone for construction. These purchases taper off as the city reaches its maximum size. Cities pay 13 gold for wood and 8 gold for stone. (Some cities may both purchase and sell wood.)

Large population cities (more than 9500 population) purchase small amounts (1-5) of lana bark, pretus bones, mallorn wood, yew, farrenstone, spiny root, and avinia leaf at various prices each month.
