📋 About This Mod

In the vanilla game, you have to run to several merchants just to sell all your stuff. More, they buy it at a very low price. This mod just simplify your life. Its a little cheating, but don't break the game. Merchants take always a margin, they have to live too !!

This version now takes care of the relics. In the vanilla game, when you buy a relic from the merchant, you pay twice the price. Its no more true! You can now have a normal price for the relics, or not. You can customize this feature.
