multiplicar su caudal y guardar bien lo ganado. Vende y compra por justo precio; es recto en todo y temeroso de Dios. Sabe también concertarse en el precio, y es bien convenible.\nEl mal mercader muy lindamente engaña vendiendo, y recatea más de lo que es justo. Es mentiroso y gran embaucador o encandilador, y engaña más de la mitad del justo precio, o da a logro.
\nEl tratante en esclavos es el mayor mercader de todos; por ser sus riquezas los mesmos hombres. Es muy venturoso, privado y conocido del Tezcatlipuca. Al fin, por tener muchos esclavos, es el mayor y principal de todos los mercaderes. El que deste oficio es bueno y diestro, sabe guardar sus bienes, y con devoción se los pida a Tezcatlipuca, y por ellos es muy agradecido, y es la flor y suma de todos los mercaderes.
