Land of Opportunity | Act I - side quests Dragon's Dogma Guide

In short: Fournival, one of the richer residents of Gran Soren, needs help convincing a certain family to sell their land. Fournival can be found in different parts of the city - near the market during the day, in the noble quarter during the night.
Difficulty level: Easy. Simply run around the city. The only requirement is having a certain amount of money: 30,000 gold for the bad ending or 80,000 gold for the ending that will be satisfactory to all parties.
In the quest, you need to talk to three people - Jasper, Sara and their son, Pip. The man is the city's doomsayer who can be found near the market. The woman is often at the inn (also near the market). Talk to them until they agree. If you have trouble locating them, wait a few minutes and try on a different part of the day, or leave the city and enter it again.
You also need to convince the little Pip. The boy can be found in the noble quarter. Sadly, he'll run away.
Chase after him to the craftsman quarter (near the Pawn Guild). Climb the workshop and jump onto the barn - the kid is hiding on the roof.
To convince Pip to agree, you need to chase after him all around the city - catch up with him and grab him when you're close. An alternative way to solve the quest is to ignore Pip completely and return to Fournival. You can buy a share of the land, which will satisfy both the merchant and the family. Unfortunately, this is an expensive solution - you need to give up on 80,000 gold.
Once you've caught Pip, go back to Jasper to get a final agreement (you need to pay to finish the quest). Now look for Fournival - he's usually in the noble quarter or on his way to The Black Cat.
