Bazaar Villager
by Toomda
Bazaar Villager adds a persistent shopkeeper villager that sells items from its own stock at prices set by its owner, and a block-and-spawn-egg setup to place it.
What it does
Players place items inside a Bazaar Villager and assign each slot a price through a custom screen. The villager then trades those stocked items with nearby buyers, and its trades sync in real time. Unlike a normal villager, a Bazaar Villager wanders in place without dying or being pushed around, so it works as a fixed vendor rather than a random trade offer.
Prices can be set in three currencies, and buyers may overpay with emeralds. When that happens, the villager gives optimized change and auto-fills the payment, leaving buyers with the fewest leftover stacks. The mod adds tiers built from Emerald Blocks and Emerald Core Blocks, a Shapeless Crafting recipe for the core block, a Shaped Crafting recipe for the villager itself, and a spawn egg so a placed villager can be picked up and placed again.
The mod runs on NeoForge only and is published for 1.21.10, in a single file dated 2025-11-21. Both the server and every player need it, since trading happens on the server side. The code is not open source, and the project is released under All rights reserved, with public links to its source code and issue tracker.
Key features

Optimized change
