You gotta gain that influence. I make my money from war, and when the war ends I’ll improve my fiefs, and attack bandits. Once I’m low on funds I’ll use my influence to encourage my nation to start another war. Join an army, destroy the enemy, and enjoy the loot. I’ll get around 150,000+denars by the time the war ends.
Sell to make profit: Sell each type of horse to the city while still “in the green” (still making money on the trade). End transaction. Decrease prices: Sell all remaining horses to the city to reduce the price (The more horses you sell the lower the price will be for the next round and the more profits you will make). End transaction.
The most cost effective ones are usually the Midland Palfrey & Steppe Horse. Bonus tip: when adding horses to your inventory, you can check the impact on your party speed in real-time by looking at the icon on the bottom right. If you hover over it for details, you will notice the "Footmen using mounts" bonus.
Making money is actually quite easy, if you know what you are doing. I've had passive income up to 20k/day with caravans and workshops doing ~500/day (from 100/day - 1500/day). Lets start with the cities. Prosperity of a city determines how much it consumes and how much money it makes.
This will be our main source of materials. So to make good money fast in Bannerlord you will want to follow these steps: Gather as many companions as you can find in Calradia. Travel to small hardwood-producing villages and buy as much as you can find. Defeat bandit parties and hoard all of the weaponry. Head to a Smithy.
The best quests for making money are: Poacher quests: Nets you extra resources. Caravan escort quests: Follow and protect a caravan as it travels. Expect a fight. Smuggling quests: Nice payoff, but you run the risk of being caught and you'll lose some goodwill with the town in which your crime takes
Companions best suited for making money in Bannerlord tend to be on the pricey side 70-80 gold is also roughly what your entire escort should cost daily, so escalating that just to have one more sword along is far from cost-effective.
I think the best way to make sure your workshops are making money is to look at the resources of surrounding towns and build a shop that utilizes recourses that are plentiful in the region to decrease materials cost. For example, in Khuzait you'd most likely make a wool weavery because it seems like every town produces sheep in Khuzait.
P.S 2:Thank you very much for the help people! I'm gonna take a note on certain things. I've also found out that it's just best to wait it out, eventually they go into profit and start making more money, tho i'm definitely gonna take a look at nearby towns.
The only other way I know is smithing which I’m terrible at and don’t really understand is there any other ways to make money that aren’t through war and smithing. Smithing is the best, caravans and workshops help with passive income, but selling loot is a good non-skill way. Build yourself a little merchant scheme. Buy low sell high.
When you're first starting out in Bannerlord, one of the best ways to make fast money is by completing village quests. Try to visit nearby villages and find quests that focus on delivering
