I find that giving a ton of goods to the villages surrounding the city and the city help A LOT. My town (Halmar) was the poorest city, now it's the richest. Just gotta do it several times.
Give them goods? Really - I thought the idea was to buy goods from them just like the towns - surely the goods are the product of their labours a town would be lucky if it were to produce it's own resources
For the most part raw materials are produced in villages and manufactured goods are produced in towns as one would expect.
All towns produce some grain & grapes because they have 1000 acres each of their own. Some have thier own salt pans.
All villages also have 1 mill and 1 pottery kiln.
But that iron you buy in Curaw for instance comes from the local villages, there are no iron deposits in Curaw itself.
So if the villager parties are prevented from bringing the iron in the supply will dryup, prices will go up, tool production will grind to a halt, etc.
I made some tables from data extracted from the game files in my thread on "buying land for a productive enterprise".
I am not going to link the thread because I am planning on moving a lot of that data into its own post soon.
