If you need lots of money quickly though, there are a couple ways of doing it. Make sure not to let your docks get blockaded either. Since ports are your main money makers, trade agreements come in handy, as does having lots of cities. Generals, town halls, churches, and farms are good ways to do this.Īfter that, build ports, markets, farms, and mines in all of your cities, and consider converting some castles that are well protected into cities, since castles are best at making soldiers, not florins. First of all, you have to make sure that you keep all of your citizens happy so that you can tax them to death.
