Pierre's Prime Produce Quest- is it worth it?

[graci]

I got all of the 25 5star vegetables Pierre asks for, but what are the benefits for doing the quest? I mean I'd get more money by just shipping them instead of giving them to him and getting the 2.5k and shipping bin.

You got 2,500g, a mini-shipping bin and unlocks a cutscene in his store after you complete.

i know, but like is it more beneficial for me to just sell my veggies and get more money than to get the 2.5k gold and the shipping bin?

Saggioro sorry for being unclear before, i edited the question so hopefully it makes more sense

It will depend, if I'm not mistaken, you're given the mission on the summer from 1ª year, you need to give 25 gold vegetable crop, I will put the normal price and the one in case you manage to get tiller profession, which will grant a 10% extra value on your crops, I will add seeds you got from 2ª year in case someone didn't complete the quest in the 1ª year.

Normal/Tiller
x25
Wheat - 37g/40g ------> 925g/1000g
Tomato - 90g/99g ------> 2250g/2475g
Red cabbage - 390g/429g ------> 9750g/10725g
Radish - 135g/148g ------> 3375g/3700g
Corn - 75g/82g ------> 1875g/2050g
Hops - 37g/40g ------> 925g/1000g

In that case, it only pays to deliver the wheat and the hops. Tomato and corn the profit it will be derisory.

I think what really makes it worthwhile is the cutscene, the scoundrel getting screwed for trying to sell the crops for 10x the amount he paid you.

[Nakos]

is it worth it? Yes, you get a mini shipping bin. I love the mini shipping bins, they save you huge amounts of time, and running back and forth across your farm.

Harvest whatever you want, but give him the cheap stuff (wheat, corn, etc.)

(NOT Hops... geez... why aren't you turning your Hops into Pale Ale?)

The utility of a mini shipping bin is definitely worth it. But definitely try and complete the quest with wheat or hops if possible.

The mini shipping bin alone is worth the trouble, in my opinion. I place it next to my bed, for all those 01:50am shippings. xD
