Well, to be beautiful girl who is a slave who is still virgin needs have a reason for it (considering high sexuality in Creation overall). Things which could demand a female to be virgin which would benefit merchant are;<br/><br/>1) Sell blood from servant for occultic ritual purposes (as spell components for thaumaturges)<br/>2) Only a virgin female dancer is able to appease a god in festival/ritual (blessing from even small deity is decent if they are mighty enough ask for extravagant stuff like that)<br/>3) For later sacrifice purposes/sell once ripped off cash other ways<br/><br/>So, think motive for merchant keep his slave dancing girl virgin :). Ofc after exaltation it may or may not matter as much as any perks being virgin maiden gets overwritten much for 'chosen of sun' status.
