Constructing the First Emperor Mini
| "It is my utmost desire to construct a miniature perfectly to scale tomb of the late First Emperor. Materials are required! Deliver 2 pieces of Lapis Lazuli to Wu Xio. I shall pay some Simoleons and some Ancient Coins. Make Haste!" |
"Find Lapis Lazuli:"
To do this, just zoom out to the area view. Just look around for them on the map and you'll find them eventually. Just be patient and make sure you look all over the map. Yes I said I wouldn't do these but the first couple aren't actually random.
"Deliver Gems:"
Just click the button to deliver them.
A Mini Mercurial Desire
| "Excellent! I believe the emperor would just squeal at the sight of this collection. Now I require 2 pieces of raw Mercury for use in the First Emperor's royal thermometer. I shall pay some Simoleons and some Ancient Coins for the work." |
"Find pieces of unsmelted mercury:"
Zoom all the way out again and look for the stone icons again. Track down two pieces of mercury and make sure you don't send them off to be processed.
"Deliver Mercury:"
Return to the woman and give her the mercury.
The Mini Emperor's Honor Guard
| "I thank you again! Oh drat! I'm sorry. It seems I neglected to provide adequate protection within the First Emperor's miniature tomb. As the tomb is small, the neighbors simply will not fit. Perhaps you could bring 3 Red Assassin Bugs instead? You will be paid some Simoleons and some Ancient Coins!" |
"Find Red Assassin Bugs:"
This is the same as the stones. Zoom out and try to find the Assassin bug icons. They might be hard to find. Worst still is trying to click on them so you can catch them. They're very small and keep moving. Good luck. If you are having trouble finding them, you can wait a day or so and check again, leave china and return, or give up the opportunity. It will resurface again eventually. You could also try using the Collection Helper to find other collectables. The theory is that if you collect things (particularly bugs) then more will spawn and hopefully some will be Red Assassin bugs. Also, I've heard that if you use some mods (One was a "No Mosaic" mod) then that could interfere with the bugs appearing.
After quiting the opportunity a couple of times because I couldn't find the bugs, it gave me the same quest but to get 2 bugs instead of three.
"Deliver Beetles:"
Click the button above your moodlets to return the bugs.
Telescopic Metal
| "Hello Sim, My name is Gao Pei! I've been studying the Dragon Cave for years and have found that with so many tourists these days it's much more peaceful and productive to study it from home, away from tourist commotion. To do this, I'm building a telescope and I'm wondering if you'll assist me in collecting 5 metals to construct the telescope. I'll pay you for your services!" |
"Find metals and deliver metals:"
Zoom out to the neighborhood view and find 5 metals, then deliver them.
Pottery of Peculiar Properties
| "A good find! This will work perfectly in the eyepiece of the telescope! It is almost finished; all I need now is the lens! I'll need to send some Ancient Pottery to the glass maker to be ground down and heated into glass. While I finish hooking up the eyepiece, can you go out and collect 2 Old Common relics? I'll make sure to you!" |
"Find Relics and deliver Relics:"
These old relics can be found during any tomb exploration and can probably be found off of one of the merchants in town. Find two of them and Deliver the Relics.
Buster Parts
| "Thanks for your help. But, I'm so disappointed! The new telescope lens got slightly damaged in the mail and will no longer fit into the lens socket! What shall I do? Wait! I have a friend who may be able to fix it without having to send it back in the mail. You, Sim, have proven to be a big help in my endeavor; can I request your services once again? I need you to deliver the telescope parts to Bao Louie to be fixed." |
"Deliver Parts:"
Take the parts to our dear friend Bao Louie.
Repair Retrieval
| "I've repaired the lens! Now that it's complete, please take it back so that Gao Pei can begin studying the Dragon Cave from home. Gao told me you'd be paid with some Simoleons and Ancient Coins for your help." |
"Deliver Parts:"
Now take them back to Gao Pei.
Lights Out!
| "Thank you so much! Studying the Dragon Cave at home with my new telescope is great, but I tried to observe it last night and I couldn't see it with all of the lights on in the town! Would you mind trying to convince 3 locals to keep their lights off at night? I'll pay you if you can improve my view of the cave!" |
"Convince 3 people"
Report In and pick the three people you would like to convince, I usually use Bao Louie and two of the merchants in town. Butter them up, be nice to them and then pick the Convince Sim option. Once done, report in.
