Yeah the merchants are the economic advisors, and most of the characters have some sort of political background, merchant, warrior and mages can all be politicians as well. A Queen wouldn't want to just have random commoners in her court they know next to nothing about the larger world around them, often times the merchants and craftsmen were chosen in their position because they were the closest.

Also, ouch, Milo stole exactly 0 coins to this day, very honest craftsman he is. lol
