Silent Trade

Explanation:

Silent trade is a form of the old style of trading which is even more common to the West Africans.

It involves a situation whereby traders who do not understand each other's language, tried to perform trade.

PARTY B would then get to the place, examine the goods, and deposit their object of exchange that they wanted to exchange, and withdraw.
