Trade jewels

To trade jewels players must follow certain rules:

• To buy a jewel take it from the bazar paying the current market price
• To sell a jewel return it to the bazar earning the current market price
• Players can not buy jewels they can not pay, as well as they can not buy jewels not available in the bazar
