No. Medieval times are exactly the opposite of today in that respect. As  
gem6868 said, raw materials have to be painstaking mined or chopped  down or 
gathered; then shipped by poorly made transport on bad roads, through  
places that tax them, to where they are needed. People's time is not valuable in  
and of itself. It's not like you invested bunches in their schooling or  
training. While specialists do command a premium, it does not balance the many 
 costs of getting their materials.
