This last provides a tremendous economic policy that can be slotted into your chosen government type to provide a 100 per cent boost to the gold yield from buildings in the Commercial Hub district.Įasier than earning gold, is spending it. This is particularly true of early-game technologies such as Animal Husbandry and Irrigation, which allow a great many luxury and bonus resources to be worked, as well as civics like Medieval Faires and The Enlightenment. As well as standout picks such as the Foreign Trade and Guilds civics, and the Currency and Banking technologies, there are many research options that offer less well-advertised bonuses to your gold income. Make smart research choices: If you want to maximise your gold income, take a moment to search out the civics and technologies that boost your yield and be aware of the secondary benefits of some of the less obvious research choices.You might be surprised by how much some of them will be willing to pay to earn the happiness boost they provide, with the extra income being provided either as a lump sum or on a gold per turn basis. If you've got so much incense it's coming out of your ears, keep one and trade the rest off for cold hard cash to rival leaders.

Luxury resources provide happiness boosts to your empire but these bonuses do not stack for multiple goods of the same type. Fire sale your assets: While bonus resources, such as fish and deer, provide non-tradeable goods that boost to your gold reserves the big trade money is earned through luxury goods like whales, spices and dyes.It's win/win (except for the barbarians, but it's either them or you, right?). Clearing a barbarian encampment will offer a handful of gold and may also curry favour with a local city-state or leader making them more likely to trade with you. Plunder barbarian outposts: In addition to be a nuisance, barbarians are a good source of gold farming.As an additional bonus, any cities of your own that the trade route passes through en route to its destination will gain a trading post that will boost income and serve to increase the active range of your future trade routes. Send your trader out to a nearby city-state or rival civilization and reap the benefits. Researching the early Foreign Trade civic will grant your civilization a trade route and then building a trader in a city will allow that trade route to be worked. Also, the citizens that you allocate in this way will be locked to these tiles until you tell them otherwise. Be aware that this will likely have a knock on effect in reducing the yield of other resources, such as food, science or production. From here, you can reallocate citizens to work on the tiles that offer the highest gold yield, if they aren't already. To do so, click on a city and then the Manage Citizens icon from the city menu that appears in the bottom right of the screen.

Typically, your population does a decent job of choosing the tiles it should be working on but if you find yourself strapped for cash or want to prioritise wealth generation above all else, you can force your population to work specific tiles.

As a rule of thumb, coastal tiles give out gold, with additional earned from resources such as fish, crabs and whales.

Many of the tiles in your territory will yield gold when worked so to find out which are the most profitable you can opt to Show Yield Icons, from the map options menu located above the mini-map.
