Trading system is one of the most used game mechanics in Minecraft. It has been in the game since Java Edition 1.3.1. With the help of villagers, players can obtain a wide range of items by trading.
In the early days of Minecraft, villagers only had a few professions. On top of that, their trades were substandard and mediocre compared to present-day villagers. The 1.14 update improved the villager trading system by adding new professions, trades, and levels.
Villager trading in Minecraft: 5 things you should know
Villager trading has become an easy and peaceful way to get valuable items like enchanted books, diamond gears, emeralds, food, and more. However, it is a complex mechanic, and players might not know everything about Minecraft’s trading system.
5) Cured villagers reduce their prices
Villagers are fragile creatures who can easily get affected by zombies. However, this isn’t a bad thing. Instead, many expert players prefer to zombify their villagers. Players can cure zombie villagers to reduce their trade prices.
Zombie villagers can be cured using a splash potion of weakness and a golden apple. After getting cured, their trade prices lowered heavily. This way, players can sell and buy items at a rate of one emerald.
4) Buying same items increases trade cost

<p>Villagers do not have infinite <a href=)
trades in Minecraft. Players can only trade an item for either 12 or 16 times. After reaching the limit, the villager will lock that trade. Villagers will have to work on their job site to renew their trades.
Villagers can renew their trades four times a day. After that, trades will stay locked until the next in-game day.
1) Loop
As mentioned earlier, players can reduce trade prices down to one emerald. With such low prices, players can make infinite emeralds using trade loops. For example, players can reduce buying and selling costs for both bookshelves and books to one emerald.
Players can buy one bookshelf for one emerald and break it to get three books. Then, these books can be sold for one emerald each. This way, players can gain triple their emeralds.
