I propose a new type of quest - the supply contract. Let's say an NPC cook has just created a new recipe and they need a steady supply of Clacker meat. A player could ask 'Do you have a contract?' and (only rarely) the NPC will offer the player a contract which requires them to supply the NPC with 100 Clacker Meats for 100 tria each. This could provide an actual market for some of the more worthless items in the game and provide players with something else to do.
