Wonder Stone Collecting
- By getting first place in Competitions and Festivals
- Chen's store will sell them during winter randomly, check everyday
Opening Up The Store
Once you have gotten your first wonder stone, visit Chen's store when Charlie his son is in there and you will trigger an event where he will notice your wonder stone and ask you if you want to attach it to one of your tools. You will only be able to attach one stone to each tool in the beggining, but as you use your tool more other slots will open up. The more stones attached to your tool the stonger it is. You can come back any time again when Charlie is in the store if you change your mind.
Opening Up The Paddy Fields
Now that you can power up your tools, attach the yellow wonder stone to your hammer and an event will automatically trigger straight after where Charlie will take you to that big Boulder above your farm and ask you to break it down using your powered up hammer. Once open, Chen will start to sell rice for you to grow there.
