Hire a villager by paying 32 emeralds. You can customize your shop by giving it a name, and enjoy the experience in both single-player and multiplayer worlds.

How to Play?

Step 1: Find a Villager

You need a golden hoe and 32 emeralds.

Step 2: Hire the Villager

Interact with the villager using the golden hoe by right-clicking on the villager. Make sure you have 32 emeralds in your inventory.

Step 3: Villager Successfully Hired

After completing the interaction and meeting the requirements, the villager will be successfully hired as your shopkeeper. The villager will now change its appearance to indicate that it is officially assigned to you. This visual change confirms that the hiring process was completed successfully.

Step 4: Accessing and Managing the Shop

Once the villager has been hired, you can interact with it to access different features. Right-click on the villager to open the shop interface, where players can browse and purchase available items. If you want to manage the shop, left-click (or hit) the villager. This will open the management interface, allowing you to control your shop.

The 4 Options

Option 1: View Shop

This option opens the shop interface where all players, including you, can browse and purchase items. When another player buys an item from your shop, they will receive a small amount of XP as a reward for the transaction.

Note: You will not receive XP when purchasing items from your own shop.

Option 2: Sell Item

This option allows you to list items from your inventory for sale in your shop. You can select one item at a time and configure the transaction settings before making it available to other players.

When setting up the item for sale, you can:

Choose how many of that item you want to sell.
Set the quantity the player will receive per purchase.
Define the price for the selected quantity.
Define currency [Emerald, Netherite, Diamond, Gold, Iron, and Copper] Ingot

Note: The system automatically detects items that are already listed in your shop. If you try to sell an item that already exists in your shop, it will update the existing listing instead of creating a duplicate entry.

Option 3: Dismiss Villager

This option removes the shopkeeper role from the villager. Once dismissed, the villager will return to its normal state. After dismissing the villager, you will receive 8 emeralds and a small amount of experience as a partial refund. In addition, all unsold items from your shop will be returned to your inventory.

Make sure you have enough free inventory space before dismissing the villager, as all remaining shop items will be transferred back to you.

Option 4: Collect Earnings

This option allows you to claim the profits generated from your shop. Whenever other players purchase items, the payments are stored as your shop earnings.

This allows you to manage and withdraw profits individually for each item sold. In addition to receiving your profits, you will also gain a small amount of experience as a reward for successfully running your shop.
