Cottage In FoMT

[harvestgirl30]

Ok Where is the Town Cottage and Mountain Cottage.
I read alot about watching T.v in Town Cottage. And finding things in Mountain cottage.
Also How the heck is someone supposed to get 100,000,000 dollars. Thats going to take forever lol. Im up to 1,116,000 and took me 3 Game years.

Town one you buy for a ton of money (possibly the amount you mentioned, I forget). Mountain one you get after you're married for 50 years. So yeah, both are pretty impossible.

As for monies, easiest way is to cover your entire field in sweet potatoes in the fall. They are the crop with the highest yield, since they grow back so quickly and sell for so much. Get the Harvest Sprites to help you harvest and water, and shove a few bags of flour their way.

the town cottage is going to take even longer than the mountain cottage, in my opinion. you don't need 100,000,000G, it's actually 999,999,999G, which is over 9 times what you stated. here's my advice.

Continue playing the game as normal, but every day, take flour to the harvest sprites to increase their heart level and play the watering and harvesting mini-games. in the menu screen, the bars on the harvest sprite screen indicate how good each of the sprites is at the job. try to get all of the sprites up to maximum skill for watering and harvesting (which will most likely take over 2 game years, as you can only play one game per day, i think)

my plan for the harvest sprites was as follows:


get the crops I'll be using and tell the sprites to get watering
do the math and calculate when the crops will be done
on days when you don't have to harvest, assign 3 sprites to take care of animals and 4 sprites to water. this may seem strange, I'll explain later.
when you are ready to harvest, get all 7 sprites harvesting.
lather, rinse and repeat.


Make sure you have 16 cows, and try to get them as high heart level as possible (over 8 is ideal) and have the cheese maker. this will let you get over 5,000 G daily from cheeses. do the same with chickens, but have the mayonnaise maker also. make sure you do the basics (collecting the sellable goods from the mountain and the beach, planting the regular amount of crops, etc) while you're doing this.

Once you have achieved all of the above, it's time to get really serious. till the entire field and plant it completely full of crops. for spring, plant cabbages (other people will say plant turnips, but i've done the math and the profit margin is the same percentage-wise, but on a much larger scale due to the higher cost of the seeds) this way, you'll only need to re-plant the field once, as cabbages take 14 days to grow. summer, plant either tomatoes or onions (again, people will say pienapples, but i prefer these as you can get more harvests out of them per season) and in fall plant sweet potatoes. (in my first year I planted 12 plots of sweet potatoes and in the season made in excess of 350,000 just from sweet potatoes)

since you've completed 3 years on the farm, the teleportation rock is available. you can find in on floor 255 of the all-season mine. now for why the harvest sprites plan seems a little strange.

when the sprites are watering and taking care of animals, you'll be doing other things. you can use the teleportation stone to transport yourself to the winter mine, no matter what the season. on floors with a multiple of 30 (30,60,90,120, etc) you can find a pink diamond. they sell for 10,000 each. on floors with a multiple of 50 (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250) you can find adamantite. this also sells for 10,000. make sure you take the basket and use the "finding stairs using less fatigue" hint to make sure you have enough energy. ship the goods and do the same the next day. for this to work perfectly, you'll only be able to get the sprites to do 1 day at a time, though.

it may seem a long way around the problem, but it's worked for me. Hope that helps a little.

This info was very helpful. I have 4 sheep and 2 right now has gold wool. But i dont think the sheep bring near the money cows do. Should i sell the sheep u think and buy 4 cows.

Well,if you want to make easy money, I just throw whatever I find in that shipping bin...it made me rich and now I have the 99999999 thing.

I think you should sell the sheep and buy as many cows as you can afford. within 1 year they'll be above 8 hearts (provided that you feed, milk and brush them daily). i believe that large cheeses sell for 500G each. 16 cows x 500G = 8000G daily. 8000G x 120 days (1 Year) = 960,000G that's a year's earnings from cheese alone.

every horse race, save before you go to it, bet lots on your own horse and exchange the medals for broaches. they sell for 2,000 each and if you can fill up your basket and rucksack, you'll make 76,000 the next day.

if you have the cursed, blessed or mythic fishing rod, go to the beach and catch 8 king fish. if you get a smaller fish, just eat it up and carry on. this will help you to fish for longer. on the 9'th time you'd catch a king fish, it will be a treasure chest, which sells for 10,000.

if you have a cow/sheep/chicken that's won their contest, leave them outside on sunny days for a total of 600 hours (best to do this in summer) and they'll start producing better produce, which sells for even more money.

just a few more money-making tips I have :)

[harvestgirl30]

I cant even get to the cursed tools yet lol. I have tried. Farthest i got was level 25. I hear people say take bodigizer XL then i hear people say take Elli Leaves. Which is best.

[BAD WOLF]

in my experience, bodigizer XL works best.

it also helps if you have lots of power berries.

ok i finally had it lol. i cheated lol. I got the gameshark and it automatically gave me 100,000,000,000 dollars lol. I was curious what everythoing looked like. Bu to be honest its not as fun using cheats. i started another game instead of using cheats. Cheats take alot of fun out of it lol.
