Well, by the end of today I had collected 216 acorns having collected a forest wall (so I was expecting the forest floor to be next). There were no more acorns in Lancre, but fortunately my eldest hadn’t created a major orchard and had lots of non-fruit trees with lots of acorns and after his collecting had 16 acorns left - two more than I needed - and now I have the forest floor.
W00T!
I just can’t be bothered to write about the daily goings on in Lancre, but last night I sold 10,000 turnips to Nook the crook for 180 bells each (purchased at 94 a piece) which gave me plenty of spare cash to pay off the last of mortgage.
The story so far:
w/e 8 April - Verence won the flower festival and made a little bit of money on turnips
w/e 15 April - no turnips but lots of harvesting and letter writing
w/e 22 April - massive loss on turnips (bought 100 at 104 bells and saturday evening sold them at 59 bells each) lots of harvesting and fishing
this week - bought 800 turnips at 99 bells each, sold last night for 499 bells each, Lancre now has lots of fruit trees and I can pay off my second mortgage, although I’m very tempted to put half my profits back into turnips.
This turned up for #1 on Saturday and wanting someone else to play with I bought a copy as well which means I now I have three animal crossing characters on the go (two on the cube), is that too much? We will just have to see. Anyway I have paid off my first mortgage and old Nook is upgrading as I write. It is currently flower festival week so I’m busy buying as many flowers as Nook will sell me. I’m also doing lots of fishing.
