4 of 11: Have you talked to him about every topic?
5 of 11: He says that he makes a good poultice that's very effective against snake bites.
6 of 11: He also says that he'll trade you some of it if you can offer him an interesting item.
7 of 11: Look through your inventory for something he might like.
8 of 11: How about that pearl you still have from India?
