I - Introduction___________________________________________________________________________

	The mod first started as a dream by one individual - weazer. There was much talk of
this mod. Everyone thought it was a fairly good Idea, being able to be a farmer in Morrowind. No one, however, would step up to face the challenge they knew there was in making this mod. Finally, I came along as a newbie modder and said, well, why not? Well first off, I was a newbie, and that's a good enough reason. But no matter how many times I banged on the keyboard during the making of this mod, I still kept trying. My parents always told me I was a very persistent person.

II - Summary_______________________________________________________________________________

	So I'm sure you've talked to people in Morrowind that own slaves and say they're a farmer. Why not you? Well, because the standard Morrowind does not allow you to be a farmer, but this mod does. The first step in becoming a farmer is to find a slave market that will sell them to you. You can buy as many as you want, but they are quite expensive.
Your next step in becoming a farmer is to find a field for your slaves to harvest in. Some people throughout the gameworld will now sell you their fields and maybe even their farmhouse. Maybe the slaves could give you some ADVICE on where to find them (*hint hint*)? 
If you wish to see the current fields available for purchase, see the still to come section. Once you get a field, plant crops in it (usually the former owner will be willing to do that for you), and then tell your slaves to harvest! Kick back and relax. Wait a few days and then check the harvest barrel in your field!

* Currently, only the Suran slave market sells slaves.

III - Slaves_______________________________________________________________________________

	Slaves are the most important part of being a farmer. They are available for purchase at different slave markets. Slaves will follow your orders, and even tell you how much they have harvested. Some slaves turn out really good and loyal, while others turn out bad. There are three types of slaves available for purchase -

* Beginner - $1000
* Intermediate - $5000
* Experienced - $10000

The better slaves can harvest faster than lower level slaves. Each slave gets a 2x-bonus for a certain type of crop-

* Beginner - Small crops; wickwheat, saltrice, marshmerrow, stoneflower, ect.
* Intermediate - Medium-sized crops; corkbulb, comberry, etc.
* Experienced - Large crops; hackle-lo, etc.

This means that if you want to harvest wickwheat only, buy a beginner slave, because they will harvest just as much wickwheat as an experienced slave.
	You can also buy your slaves clothes if you want; this can be done at slave markets.

IV - Farming_______________________________________________________________________________

	Now that you have some knowledge of slaves, lets cover the basics of farming. Some farmers will sell their field to you if you talk to them about 'purchase my plantation'. Most of the time, farmers will be willing to plant some crops for you. They will give you a list of crops for you to choose from. Different fields can support different crops. Never pay too much for a field that can't support good crops. Once you own the field, your crops will start to grow. Go away for a while and come back later and they might be fully grown. 
	After you have a field and a slave, get your slave close to the field you want him to harvest in. Talk to him and order him to harvest; you should see him walk to the field and then start wandering around in it. Some slaves aren't very smart, you may have to get them in the field before they realize where to harvest.
	Now that you have a slave harvesting, go away for at least a day and then come back. Check the harvest barrel, and their should be the corresponding type of crop in it. Now you can go sell you crops and get some extra cash! After a while of investing, you'll be on the way to becoming the next Dren!

V - Still to Come__________________________________________________________________________

	This mod is currently by no means finished. If you find an error, PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO REPORT IT TO ME (see the top for my email and sn)!!! In the future there will be more fields to buy, more quests to gain fields and land, and many more features including plantation guards and guars to help with harvesting. There will even be more crops to plant in your fields (not NEW but new to this mod).

Fields for sale list -

* = Field
** = Planted Field
*** = Plantation (field(s) and farmhouse)

*** Dirara Drom
** Piernette Beluelle

VI - Credits_______________________________________________________________________________

	I'm sorry that this has to be such a pathetic credits section but....I couldn't get a single soul to help me with this mod. Here are the people that helped in some way (not with the TES CS, though)-

*** WEAZER - The person who invented this whole dream of the farmer mod. Much thanks to him!!!
*** ME - The person who did EVERYTHING with the TES CS.
*** THE COMMUNITY - The people who gave so many great Ideas to contribute to this mod.

	Well, that's about it. If you have ANYTHING to say about this mod, talk to me. I love getting emails. I love feedback. So with that being said, I HOPE YOU HAVE LOTS OF FUN WITH THIS MOD!!!!!!!!!
