"売春を行う女性は、古くから存在する職業とされる。職業とは、ヒトのみが行う社会的かつ文化的営為であり`、富、`付加価値の交換により形作られる経済活動の手段としては、売春がやはり人類最古の職業の一つである。"

I know that the meaning of 富 is wealth but it doesn't suit the context well,
and I have the impression that this word could just be removed and it would be
fine.

question
meaning
What does 富 mean in this sentence?
富 is a vague term that broadly refers to things that are considered to have
financial values. Money, real estate, precious metals, jewelry, food, oil,
pepper, and so on.

In the modern society 富 mainly refers to money itself, but in the old days it
could have been stones, seashells or [bags of
rice](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koku) which people sought in order to be
"rich". I don't know what the first prostitutes in the human history gained in
return :)
