Automate Gold Input and Item Output with Hoppers

Connecting Hoppers for Efficiency

Place a hopper above your bartering station to automatically feed gold ingots into it. Connect this hopper to a chest or other storage containing gold. The station will draw gold as needed for trades.

For output, place a hopper on the side or bottom of the bartering station to automatically extract traded items into a collection chest. This eliminates manual inventory management.

Optimizing Your Setup

Use multiple hoppers if needed—one for input and one or more for output depending on your trade volume. Ensure hoppers are properly aligned with the station's input and output faces. This setup allows you to run your farm passively while you focus on other tasks. The station will continue trading as long as gold is supplied and piglins are nearby.
