If your fortress performs a successful mission to "demand tribute", whether it be one-time or annual, that site will send a caravan, once a year. No actual "trading" or broker is involved, they simply drop off the goods at your depot and then leave, without speaking to any of your dwarves. Tribute caravans tend to be relatively small, but they are guarded. You don't have any control over the content of the tribute. What they bring depends on the civilization's available materials, the site's size and tracked items and so forth, and may range from excessively mundane (like a bunch of average quality clothing) to extremely useful (like exotic animals), and may largely appear random. Notably, tributes are one of the few ways to obtain evil animals tamed by goblins such as [[beak dog]]s for instance. Yearly tributes usually happen at the beginning of a season and may be arranged at any season, including winter. Note that a site's ability to provide tribute greatly depends on whether they have access to [[wagon]]s, pack animals and so forth, e.g. a goblin civilization is likely to provide you with a couple items as that's all a merchant can carry.
