Why was a market important in the lives of people in the middle ages?
yes. An expanded answer: Villages did not have markets. Villages were basically farming centers, with a few craftsmen and professionals such as a smith, a carpenter, a miller, perhaps a few others, who might farm as well as practice a trade. Although there would have been local trade and barter, there were not organized markets. Towns, on the other hand, did have markets with regular market days. These markets were places where the farmers of nearby villages could sell their produce, and local craftsmen could sell their goods. The economy of the towns focused on crafts, manufacture, and trade. Paris had several markets that were located in large covered buildings, sort of a medieval shopping mall, to allow business to take place even in bad weather.

But when his ship was sinking and he started to drown, he prayed to God saying that if he didn't drown then he would stop being a slave trader, and free all of his slaves. He survived, made good on his promise, and supported the non-slave movements. But before this, of course he had slaves! He was a slave trader!
How did the African slaves journey to the coast?
1) Load a ship with goods that are popular in Africa-guns, cloth, iron pots and pans, copper, kettles, spirits, cheap bracelets and necklaces-and sail to Africa. The goods must be cheap to buy in Britain, but highly prized in Africa. 2) Unload the ship and exchange the goods for captured slaves. The slave trader swaps a cheap cargo of goods for something that us really needed in America and the west Indies- slaves! 3) After a gruelling two-month journey across the Atlantic Ocean, the slaves arrive to be cleaned up and sold to farmers. The slave trader will make a fortune while the slaves will go to plantations. The slave trader will then buy a load of sugar, cotton or tobacco and load it onto his empty ship. When he returns to Britain, he will sell his precious cargo to the cotton-wearing, sugar-loving,tobacco-smoking public…and make another huge profit!
