To get the 60 percent hire discount for Raja the Dealer in Township, let your active hiring contract expire and avoid renewing it immediately. Raja regularly offers full-price renewals or minor markdowns when his timer runs out, but leaving him idle behind the City Market counter prompts the game to offer a promotional rate that reduces the 10-day contract from 90 Township Cash (T-Cash) to 36 T-Cash.
How Dealer Discount Pricing Works
Raja can be hired for one, five, or ten days to fetch specific crops, factory goods, or mining supplies once every hour. Standard hiring rates require a substantial investment of premium currency, especially for free-to-play towns:
| Hire Duration | Standard Cost | 20% Discount Cost | 60% Sale Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Day | 12 T-Cash | ~10 T-Cash | ~5 T-Cash |
| 5 Days | 50 T-Cash | 40 T-Cash | 20 T-Cash |
| 10 Days | 90 T-Cash | 72 T-Cash | 36 T-Cash |
When a contract ends, checking the market often reveals either the standard 90 T-Cash rate or a 20 percent markdown (72 T-Cash for ten days). Purchasing at these rates resets the cycle at a higher cost. If you refuse these initial rates and leave Raja unhired, the game eventually updates his status with a special sale banner offering the 60 percent discount.
Managing Supply During Dealer Downtime
Waiting for the 60 percent offer requires playing without on-demand vendor requests for anywhere from several days to a few weeks. Maintain town production during this gap with the following preparations:
- Stockpile long-chain goods before expiry: During the final 24 hours of an active contract, use Raja's hourly searches to stock up on slow-to-produce goods, such as ores, rubber, silk, and cocoa.
- Expand City Market boxes: Purchase permanent market shelves with coins. A larger market pool refreshes every six hours and supplies random needed goods without costing T-Cash.
- Use Co-op requests: Request difficult items in your Co-op chat every three hours to cover train and airplane crates.
Best Uses for a Discounted 10-Day Contract
Once you purchase the 10-day contract for 36 T-Cash, maximize your return by searching for high-impact items as close to every hour as your schedule allows:
- Mining Tools: Request picks, dynamite, and TNT. Stockpiling picks (up to 15 per search) provides the tools required to extract ores during Mine Time and Ore Galore events. Smelted ores directly fund permanent factory and transport upgrades in the Academy of Industry.
- Complex Factory Products: Buy items with long production chains (such as furniture, coats, and jewelry) to immediately clear high-value helicopter orders and airplane crates.
- Island Produce: Purchase island items to avoid 8- to 14-hour ship voyages when filling urgent orders.
- Items to Avoid: Do not spend Raja's hourly search on short-growth crops like wheat and corn, or fast factory goods like bread, which your town can easily produce manually.
Progression Priorities: When to Hire Raja
Spending 36 T-Cash every few weeks is efficient only if your town generates enough T-Cash through achievements, the House of Luck, and helicopter orders to support it.
If your town is below Level 40, spend your initial T-Cash on permanent upgrades first, such as unlocking extra production queues in primary factories and expanding City Market baskets. Once your baseline production infrastructure is established, rotating through the 60 percent Dealer contract at 36 T-Cash provides the best recurring value for your premium currency.

Nice guide. I am checking the other Township articles next.
This guide answered the exact question I had.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
This saved me time in the early game.
