In Animal Crossing, Money does grow on trees

People often say “money doesn’t grow on trees” well in Animal Crossing you couldn’t be more wrong, it does grow on trees, once a day will appear a glowing yellow spot on the ground:

You will get 1.000 Bells just by digging it, but don’t cover it yet! You can also plant some money, you have to convert some money into an item, the ideal is for you to plant 10.000 Bells, its the best number and you’ll get the most out of it, plant it, and 5 days later it will drop 3 bags with the number that you planted, that way you have  20.000 Bells profit.

 

The Money Rock

Did you know once a day there will be one rock that will give you money instead of stones or iron nuggets? this is true, you can hit the stone with the Shovel or an Axe and you can get 20.000 Bells if you hit 8 times in a row, be wary, you cannot miss any hit or it will stop giving you money, for that, you want to dig 2-3 holes behind you, so you don’t go back when u hit the rock, and the rest, the rest is money!

Non-Native Fruit

When you start playing the game, you’ll see that there is a single fruit type growing, this type will be your Native Fruit, this can be one of the following five types: Apple, Cherrie, Orange, Peach, or Pear, all the other for will be Non-Native, as for the natives you can sell the fruit for 100 Bells each, on the other hand, non-native ones will sell for 500 Bells each.

Some ways to find these non-native trees are in the Nook Islands, that you can visit when spending a Nook Ticket. Bring the fruit back and plant on your island so you have a reliable source of money every harvest, you can also bring the entire tree back to your island so you don’t waste time while it’s growing (more on this topic on an article coming up). You can also have other friends that play Animal Crossing, if this is the case then the process becomes even easier, in this way, you can sell your native in his island and it is a non-native in their island, you’ll get 500 Bells for each, also don’t forget to collect his fruits and sell on your home town.

Never forget that the more trees you have, the more return you’ll have.

 

Turnips

Turnips are also a really reliable source of Bells overall and we made you a full article about that will be released really soon! The link will be here 🙂
