Quests

So, you have some crop growing and your daylily chores are done within one in game hour... "Well, this sucks." you may think to yourself as you start to walk up to bed to trigger the next day. Well, Leave that bed alone you lazy bum. You do in fact have something else to do, and that is helping your neighbors. Every day, you will see your quests update, and people will have various things to do. This varies from some hard well-paying fieldwork, to acting as the arias local Deliveroo, getting some shopping there too lazy to get themselves.

By doing these jobs, you will get some daily income, as well as some much-needed social points. You have to keep your points above 55,000 to be seen as a stand-up guy so the locals will be willing to do your work (Nice job Mr Tom Soyer), as well as convince the lady's that you are a total stud and swoon over you.

The problem is, you also need to get enough extra to use your good will like a true politician... for material gain. This makes the vehicle dealers sell you their equipment at a reasonable price (Thats no john dear you're selling bud, most of its not even green), as well as smooth talk to local country bumpkins into selling you their fields at a low price (because you're such a kind fella). Quests are the only real way to get SP in amounts that are useful.

Fix a building
Someone will ask you to fix a building on their farm. Because these are repetitive quests, you can often be asked to fix a building you have already fixed in the past - in this case you just run to the building and back to the quest giver. Easiest money ever!

Fieldwork (Plow)
Farmers in the area seem not to be very keen on doing their job, and will pay you a good chunk of change to do the job for them. However, this is not always worth your time. Some farmers will low ball you and offer less then £1000 to do a 3ha field... Check on the map what the "ha" of the field is before talking to the quest giver so you don't take on a big job for pittance.

The quests are labeled as "Plow", however this can take the form of plowing or cultivating the field.

Fun Fact: The quest is named, for example, "(Plow) Amy". This for sure will give 14-year-olds every ware (And likely the dev's... I see what you did their) a few chuckles.

The AI is dumb.
No one seems to know what they are doing around here. They will ask you to plow or cultivate a field with active crops, and because of this, there are two things you need to keep in mind.


 * You can work out what field you will work on by the "ha" the quest displays and checking the map for nearby fields with that value. Check the field before you take on the job, as it may just be worth buying it instead for a no effort harvest, to get it to mostly (or fully) pay for itself.
 * One of the best things you can have happen to you while taking on these quests is being asked to work on a field with ready to harvest crops. You see, When the quest is active, the game will not penalise you for destroying the crop, and until the quest is done, it is your field to do with as you please. On that note, it is time to drag your harvester and grain trailer over there and take all the spoils for yourself. The individual that asked you to work on the field did not even remember it was there, so it is the perfect crime.

Fetch Quests (The Local Deliveroo).
So, you have nothing better to do and you own a vehicle. Sounds like it's time to become a (big name driver pimp app here) driver. Some of these are for chump change, like £40, to go get some tomatoes for the lazy locals (Welcome to the app driver gig). But some are ok, giving you £200+. That may not sound much, but that is 400+ social points for basically doing nothing.

These quests come in two forms that I like to call, Grocery delivery, and Drug mule (You will see why).

Grocery delivery (Veg and soups)
Farm life is one of Patience and hard work. However, it seems that the locals here can't even be bothered to walk to the store, or even make the food they need. (You know, the thing that is their literal job.) Lucky for you, they will pay silly money for a few bits of greenhouse veg, or tins of soup.

It's not much in the light of the price of a new tractor, but the SP is Dubble what you get in money. You can expect them to pay you around £40-£300 for the trip, so it is not a bad idea to keep some common foods in your pockets to quickly tick off these quests on your daily trip. Just keep in mind these quests are the lowest paying, and may not even be worth paying attention to if it is not nearby on your rout for the day. It is definitely not worth traveling to the boonies of the map to deliver a few tomatoes.

The common items people will ask for are.


 * Tomato's
 * Pumpkin soup

Transport (Drug mule?)
Some people in this game will pop up offering a Trasport quest. You drive over and ask "I'm looking for work, got anything for me?", and you get this vague response. "I do indeed. Could you get 'the' package for me, my friend has it now." You then notice they are offering you £200+ to pick up a package, and after doing this a few times, the "friends" are just a hand full of people on the map...

High value boxes of mysteries and the vague talk aside (It would make anyone wary of a wire blush), these quests tend to be good to pick up. Not only is it an ok chunk of chainage, you can do them as you go about your day. There are no police in this game, as its all based on social standing, and these "packages" are very socially acceptable round these parts. so go nuts.

There are 5 locations that you will be expected to pick the package up from, and the frequency you will be expected to retrieve them.


 * The top NW farm by Redberry where you do the match maker quest. (Sometimes)
 * A farm in the village of Old Wheatford (Common)
 * The bottom SW farm in Old Man's Wharf.(Most)
 * The Top N farm of peakville. (Sometimes)
 * The farm at Player's Solitude (Rare)
