CityRP does not add NPCs that buy goods players have a use for, such as fish, just to clear out inventories.
Why
NPC buyers for goods that players have a use for undercut the player economy. Meth and weed have always sold to NPCs because nothing in game consumes them; that is the deliberate exception, not a precedent.
The earliest ruling said the same. Vinic denied a fish-buying NPC in 2015 for lack of support, and because an NPC buyer would not move the server towards the player-driven economy it was aiming for. This is Systems Create Reasons to Interact: a good someone can use should go to a player, not vanish into an NPC.
