AI Ya Song: On October 1st, I unexpectedly spotted AI Ya Song on the program and rushed to see the first show. The previous indoor performance had been canceled due to fire safety concerns, so it was rescheduled for an outdoor version. While the performance wasn't as impressive as the indoor version, the circular setting, divided into four acts, allowed the audience to rotate through the scene, creating a unique experience.
Regarding the boat ride: Today was incredibly lucky. We earned 100 Jiaozi (currency notes) from completing quests and bought a boat ride. We arrived just in time for the Battle of Jingdong, a major Song Dynasty event. The boatman docked the boat by the river, and we watched the entire show from the water. I'd previously inquired about the 50-yuan rowboat option, but this search revealed a motorboat option. We boarded the boat at the Cross Street Pier and arrived around 11:10 AM.
Regarding the crowds: Today was the first day of National Day holiday, but there weren't as many people as expected, probably because it was raining. The scenic area provided raincoats. Qingyuan is truly a gem!
About earning Jiaozi:
1. Upon entering the park in the morning, the Da Song Bai Xi NPC will start looking for beggars. Give them food and answer their questions. He'll give you a lot of Jiaozi. We gave him nine between us. You can find it just after crossing Hongqiao Bridge.
2. Then, go to Huangjia Paradise and find the NPC at the entrance to the Da Song Parade Ground to get a Pass Certificate. Get nine stamps and exchange them for five Jiaozi. However, I only got the Pass Certificate in the afternoon when I interacted with the Da Song High Official NPC.
3. There are also Guess the Song and Join the Songs NPC. Those who listen to songs regularly will earn Jiaozi faster.
4. If you're not good at games, go to the street in front of the Da Song Parade Ground and find the NPC to play Adventure. You can earn Jiaozi by completing tasks.
5. Other games can also earn Jiaozi, but I feel the first few are the most efficient.
