Making Money

This guide is your roadmap to making money in Redmont—deconstructed down to the actual economic meta. Whether you are grinding raw resources, entering the government-subsidized service sector, or running commodity merchant arbitrage, here is how the circular wealth machine actually works.

Get a Job

You can have up to 2 trades, 1 profession, and any number of government jobs!

University exams

• Pass job exams at Redmont University (via /university) to unlock certified professions like Solicitor, Doctor, or Judge.
• Entry-level government roles like Trainee Doctors and Police Recruits are subsidized directly by the government treasury—guaranteeing steady fiat income.
• Keep in mind that professional exams require a basic understanding of the server's laws, and these careers operate within the highly active, government-funded civil service sector.

Player-made jobs

• Join the DemocracyCraft Discord server to find job listings from player-made businesses.
• Most private sector roles are built around the "Convenience Gig-Economy" (the DoorDash Meta)—where wealthy players pay you to save them time on low-skill tasks like clearing land, building cosmetic designs, or gathering resources.
• You can also find specialized roles in player-owned conglomerates, banks, or legal firms representing clients in court dockets.

Trade jobs

• Trades are the primary physical engine of the economy, printing fresh currency directly into the market via server-payout plugins.
• Explore the Hunter job to earn money at your own pace by eliminating mobs in the wilderness.
• Try being a Miner to supply shops with blocks and ore, utilizing the server's constant demand for construction materials.
• Work as a Lumberjack and clear out forests to supply wood, which remains a key consumption sink for cosmetic building projects.
• Become a Fisher and earn consistent cash while relaxing in water biomes.
• Grinding trade jobs is the safest way to generate baseline capital without relying on player markets.

Start a Business

Business registration

• Submit your business registration application on the forums to gain access to the in-game companies plugin for managing assets, chest shops, and employee payroll.
• Apply for a government grant to secure starting capital. Since these grants are paid out of the printed government treasury, they serve as a risk-free fiat boost to get your venture off the ground.

Secure a location

• Purchase a plot or rent space within existing buildings to set up operations.
• Note that commercial real estate in Redmont functions as "dead capital"—it has no native industrial yield on its own, so only rent or buy plots that you intend to actively monetize with chest shops.
• Government-assigned shop spaces near spawn are highly competitive but offer the best foot traffic for new businesses.

Chest Shops

Independent selling

• Use the ChestShop plugin to run commodity merchant arbitrage without registering a business.
• You can buy raw resources cheap from active grinders and sell them in bulk to builders or government projects for a healthy margin.
• Manage your funds independently and set up small retail shops on your plot or rented commercial space.

Stock your shop

• Gather materials through farming, crafting, or exploring the wilderness, or purchase them wholesale from other players.
• Set up your chest shops using the formatting guide to automate your sales.
• Running chest shops allows you to establish passive income streams that generate money even while you are offline.

Selling to chest shops

• If you do not want to manage your own retail space, you can immediately liquidate your raw gathered resources by selling them directly to player-owned buy-chests.
• This allows you to convert physical assets into instant cash, though you will be sacrificing a profit margin to the merchant running the shop.
• Pay attention to the market rates at spawn to ensure you are selling to the highest-paying buyer.

Conclusion

Whether you choose to grind trade jobs, enter the subsidized government service sector, or establish a passive chest shop network, Redmont offers multiple avenues to grow your wealth. Position yourself strategically, watch the velocity of printed fiat, and watch your bank account flourish!
