• 48 Quarter Bean Dollars

Setting Up

Depending on their position in the order of play, players receive quarter bean dollars (which we'll call "QBD"s from here on) from the bank:

Position in the order of play	QBDs received
Starting player	2 QBDs
2nd player	2 QBDs
3rd player	3 QBDs
4th player	3 QBDs
5th player	4 QBDs

Any QBDs you don't need make up the bank, where you can exchange bean dollars for QBDs at any time during the game. Simply return one of the bean dollars you've earned (= remove the card from the game) and take four QBDs.

Take five cards from the draw pile and put them in the bean market face up. The card that is farthest away from the draw pile is the "front" card.

(The setup diagram shows the discard pile and the draw pile, with the five bean market spaces in a row beside them. The front of the bean market is the space at the far end, away from the draw pile.)

Playing the Game

At any time on your turn, you can buy exactly one card from the bean market. These rules apply:

• The front card on the bean market costs 1 QBD, the second card is 2 QBDs, the third card is 3 QBDs, and so on. Any QBDs you've spent go back in the bank.
• During the "Trading and Donating" phase, you may trade the chance to buy a card from the bean market to another player. That player has to fulfill this buy immediately.
• When you buy a card from the bean market, you have to plant it immediately.

Whenever a card has been bought from the bean market, the market is immediately restocked. Move the remaining cards to the front and put the new card in the last position of the market.

Combining with Other Expansions
