Profit Block

A special block that lets you resell items you bought from villagers at a higher price, essentially turning trading into a business. Think of it as a “merchant’s stand” or “trading counter.”

Functionality:

• When you right-click the block, a custom GUI opens.

• You place an item you previously bought from a villager into the input slot.

• The block automatically recognizes it and sets a resale price (slightly higher than the villager’s selling price).

• Another slot lets you collect the emeralds when someone “buys” the item back (either instantly or after a short timer to simulate trading).

Features:

• Price Markup: +10–30% higher than the original villager price.

• Emerald Profit: Gives you more emeralds than you spent, essentially making trading a business.

• Balance Options:

  • Requires fuel (like gold nuggets or paper for “licenses”).

  • Has cooldowns so it can’t be spammed.

  • Only works with items that villagers normally sell (to prevent infinite duplication of rare gear).

Crafting Recipe (example):

• 3 Emeralds

• 1 Villager Head (or Villager Egg in creative mode)

• 4 Planks

• 1 Chest

GUI Design:

• Input slot: place villager-bought item.

• Emerald slot: shows how much you’ll earn.

• Collect button: to confirm the resale.

Extra Twist:
If you resell too much, nearby villagers might raise their prices (like simulated “market inflation”), making it a balanced and fun mechanic.
