Jade Empire Hints

Optional Notes

  • 1 of 14: There's a bookstand just to the right of the teahouse entrance that you can read for XP.
  • 2 of 14: TIP: There's a special Dragon Amulet gem that will double all the XP you get from reading bookstands and scrollstands. You can get it from Gao the Greater's treasure room while doing the "Find a New Flyer" main quest. You'll probably want to wait until after you get the gem to read any bookstands or scrollstands anywhere.
  • 3 of 14: There's a chest along the back wall of the teahouse near Cook Teh and Dishwasher Wong, plus a bamboo cask just a bit west of that.
  • 4 of 14: Look for two more casks in the small area just west of the teahouse.
  • 5 of 14: There's another chest on the other side of the wall just NE of the teahouse's NE corner.
  • 6 of 14: Find Chai Jin on the upper-level walkway of the teahouse and talk to him about his exotic and painful foods.
  • 7 of 14: A bashable jar is on the west side of a small house that's a ways directly south of the teahouse (near Chumin), and a bamboo cask is in a field of flowers across the stream a ways west of that.
  • 8 of 14: Two bamboo casks that you can loot are at the NE corner of the walkway that goes around the boathouse.
  • 9 of 14: There's a bookstand you can read for XP on the wooden walkway that's near the NE corner of the boathouse. (It's down on the lower ground near Big Tian.)
  • 10 of 14: A bamboo cask can be found behind the building that's a bit NE of the boathouse.
  • 11 of 14: Darting Lynx, who's standing just NE of the green star on the area map labeled "Beggar's Pier", sells a few Dragon Amulet gems and techniques. Unfortunately, the only really good one (Balance of Nature) is very expensive.
  • 12 of 14: There's a bookstand and a chest with a lot of silver in it on the ship at the far SE end of town.
  • 13 of 14: In the area just north of that, there's a bashable vase next to a building at the SE end, plus a bamboo cask by a building a ways NW of that.
  • 14 of 14: In the merchant area, there's a chest next to a building near Old Wei and a bookstand near Minister Sheng.
