Yasuki Merchant
From L5r: Legend of the Five Rings
The Yasuki Merchant school of the Yasuki family is their primary focus, as they revere and value the merchant class. To them, trade is the lifeblood of Rokugan, and as a result their traders are among the best in the Empire. The Yasuki love the art of the deal, and delight in providing products their customers both want and need. (Crab p. 44)
[edit] The Yasuki and the Crane
There is a marked difference between the Yasuki merchants and their Crane counterparts. While both are cunning, the Yasuki have a reputation for the same rough honesty found in most Crab. They haggle over the prices of their products as all merchants do, but have no illusions about why they do it. The Yasuki Daimyo Yasuki Taka used to say; "Necessity dictates that I sell a product for all it is worth, and I cannot know its worth until I know how much a customer is willing to pay for it." This forthrightness is appreciated most among the heimin, and although their prices might be high, the Yasuki would never sell anything of shoddy or inferior quality. (Crab p. 44)
