After a day in town improving the economy
Those interested can go talk to Master Steelhead about the caravan job. He peruses the description and nods. "I'll send one of the boys for Master Deyna. Fairly certain she's at the Trader's Guildhall down the road, so sit a while and she'll be along."
It takes about an hour when a halfling woman arrives at the Adventurer's Guildhall. Barely three feet high and wearing exquisitely-tailored and impeccably neat traveling leathers, she looks to be of early middle age for a halfling. Her light brown hair is cut quite short, and she wears a short sword and dagger that look well-used and cared-for. Her eyes are bright green, and she wears emerald earbobs, at least three in each ear.
She hops onto a seat at your table and regards you all frankly. "Master Deyna. So, you're the Company with No Name. Master Steelhead said you're up-and-coming and have tackled some interesting jobs so far. This will hopefully be less... original foes, but there will likely be more of them. I had hoped to leave in three days, and this will likely take, at minimum, two weeks, barring weather or needing to pause to heal or reprovision. I'm going south on a shortcut from Redhaven to Stone Bridge, dropping off a load at Fort Cross, picking up some things there, then heading south to Port Lyalee on the trade road. Once we get there, we can negotiate further for another trip, seeing how things have gone. I can offer you provisions all the way, shelter in the wagons in bad weather, and three hundred gold apiece, a quarter now, quarter at Fort Cross, the remainder at Port Lyalee. I expect you to guard the caravan against all foes, enemies, raiders, bandits, beasts, and thieves, mount watches at all hours, kill or drive away foes if need be. I'll expect you to lend a hand at getting our wagons or mounts out of tight spots on the road, if necessary, and help in patching people or animals up if anyone gets sick or injured. I have an herbalist and sawbones in my crew, but Master Steelhead said you have a Peloran priest, so he's far better than my healer. Do we have a deal?"
Master Deyna cocks her head, inviting discussion, or a counteroffer.
