NOTE: Some of the information below may be outdated. The number of trades needed to increase fame appears to have been greatly reduced in a recent update. 
==Walkthrough==
*Trade Melyon any of the below to complete the quest.
:
Item 	Quantity	Reward 	Reward
Item 	Quantity	Per Trade	Per Stack
La Theine Cabbage	5 	100g 	240g
Millioncorn 1 	3 	120g 	480g
Boyahda Moss 2 	1 	600g 	7200g
# You can trade any size stack (of at least three) of Millioncorn to Melyon and he'll only take 3.
# The following macro can be used to trade the Moss while directly facing Melyon:/targetnpc/item "Boyahda Moss" <t>This macro will only work with Boyahda Moss because it is not possible to trade more than one item at a time via a macro.
===Notes===
* This Quest will raise Reputation in Bastok, San d'Oria, and Jeuno.
** It does not affect Windurst reputation. 
** Contrary to popular rumor, this quest has been shown not to lower Tenshodo (Norg) reputation.
====Trading Time====
It takes approximately 5 seconds per trade when using the Boyahda Moss macro and going through the NPC chat prompts as quickly as possible; mostly due to Melyon having extended pauses between chat lines. At maximum speed with all 25 stacks of moss in Inventory, this quest will take approximately 1500 seconds (25 minutes) to reach Reputation 9.
