Description
There's a small farming setup that needs migrants like you.
Start: Side Jobs, Madame de Pompadour
Introduction
You have a job: Fungus Farming, accepted at Madame de Pompadour in the Ross 154 system.
Find Fran Brier in the Catacombes (Ruins)
Next NPC: Fran Brier, Ruins, Madame de Pompadour
- Offer to help Fran Brier.
Me: My name's <name>. I understand you need help with fungus?
Fran Brier looks up from scrubbing out a large plexiglass container. Her eyes narrow as she regards your clothes.
Fran Brier: <name>, eh? You're not from this station. Maybe you can help with our improved vats. The locals are, uh, superstitious about 'em.
She gestures for you to follow and walks over to a building that looks like it's due to be demolished.
She says: Stir the algae, fertilize the fungus, refill the buckets. That too complicated for you?
Me: Seems simple enough. Just let me get started.
Next area: Ruins, Madame de Pompadour
- Refill The Fertilizer
- Stir the Algae
- Fertilize the Fungi
Refill:
(Strength check)
You shovel a thick, black, “fertilizer” into buckets for other workers to dump on fungi. They line up for the buckets without looking you in the eye.
- Stir the Algae
- Fertilize the Fungi
Stir:
(Strength check)
It’s boring, but you push a stick into an algae tank and stir things up. Sensors change from yellow to green.
- Fertilize the Fungi
(Strength check)
You grab a bucket and spread brown, smelly goo over the fungi. You try not to breathe as you dump the rest of the goo. You notice what looks like a bit of bone at the bottom of the bucket.
Next NPC: Fran Brier, Ruins, Madame de Pompadour
- Collect Your Pay
You're relieved to finally be out of the building. You're not sure what you saw in there, but it was more than just farming.
Fran Brier: Take your money. Keep your mouth shut. Go away.
Congratulations!
