Finish “Wagon Stuck in the Mud” before starting this quest. Without this, you won’t be able to activate A Sack of Pepper.

Go to Greymanes in the Hernand region.

And activate the quest marker from the Local Informant.

Purchase 25 Packaged Black Pepper from the Goldleaf Merchant Guild in Greymanes.

Make sure you have enough silver—you must pay for it yourself.

Important: If Yann is part of the quest, make sure he boards the wagon AFTER you buy the pepper, not before.

Ride your wagon approximately 2000 meters to the Demeniss trade outpost.

Watch out for:

Hostile patrols that can knock NPCs off the wagon.
Bounties — if you have one, you won’t be able to trade (pay it off at a church first).

Check in with the Local Informant to advance the final objective, then turn in the quest to review your rewards.

Don’t talk to Yann before buying pepper — he must board the wagon after you purchase it, or the quest won’t complete properly.
Don’t sell fewer than 25 items — the trade post requires a minimum of 25 items per transaction.
Watch out for bounties — if you have an active bounty, you can’t trade; pay it off at a church in Hernand first.
Protect Yann from hostile patrols — if he gets knocked off, the mission fails and you must retrieve him.
Check which items each tradepost buys — not all posts accept all goods; verify Demeniss buys black pepper.

A Sack of Pepper is the perfect entry-level trade quest in Crimson Desert, teaching you the core economic loop while earning instant profit.
