Answer 1

1. cliff likes gifts, just like everybody else. although curry rice is his favorite (bonus points when it's in gift wrap) he likes other foods - [http://www.fogu.com/hm5/index.php?p=boys/cliff ]

2. you aren't talking to gotz during the times when he'll do your upgrades - you need to talk to him behind his counter. however, if he doesn't feel friendly towards you, he will not work for you. you need to give him gifts every now and then, and talk to him EVERY day

3. that's one of cliff's regular (purple heart) responses, after you get him a job at the winery

4. Van is a travelling merchant from Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful Life, a gamecube game. you can link it to your More Friends of Mineral Town, and he'll start visiting your town AFTER you link. he will set up shop in the inn, on the second floor - [http://www.fogu.com/hm5/index.php?p=awl_connect ]

Answer 2

1) Just keep giving Cliff what he likes eventually his heart will go up
2) You need to give Gotz lots of gifts like eggs and honey
3) Nope he actually means it!
