Something not right, I Go to Chen store @Spring 1st year, and he has 3 wonderful stone (Red,Blue,Yellow)
Hope this helps.In Winter you can get Chen to sell Wonderfuls of any color. The color he sells will depend on matching the last two digits of two of your "Degrees" or "Levels". You have Degrees/Levels for Animals, Cooking, Crops, Fishing, Mining and an Other which I think is the sum of the 5 degrees added together. The stone colors are produced by matching the levels like this:
Yellow - fishing/other
Orange - cooking/other
Red - crops/other
Green - mining/other
Blue - animals/other
Indigo - cooking/animal
Purple - crops/mining
The major problem is that there is no way to see the number assigned to any Level, so you are stuck adjusting a Level by one, over and over, until the last two digits of the two Levels match. It is a very time consuming process but if you want a specific stone it is the only way I know to get it. After you buy a Wonderful, you have to wait 3 days before Chen will sell another.
To get your stone: In Winter, when you're ready for bed (it needs to be before midnight) make sure your stamina is full, save your game, go to bed and when you wake up go directly to Chen's store and check for a Wonderful. If there is none (or not the color you want), reload your game, use your tool once (it counts even in your house), go to bed and when you wake up go check Chen's. Keep repeating the process until you get the color you want. I saved after every 5 tool swings just so I didn't have to keep counting. It can require up to 99 reloads to get the color you want.
To change your Degree/Level by one: for Animal use the brush, for Crops use the hoe, for Fishing cast the rod, for Other use the axe.
You also need enough Gold to be able to buy the stone(s) you want. You can have the Harvest Sprites Enchant Chen's store to lower prices and save some gold. A small effect on lower prices will save 5% of the cost (so instead of 4,000 you would pay 3,800). The values below are from the Official Strategy Guide. The values match what was in my game, except that I would almost swear that Chen was selling the Indigo for only 30,000 G . . . Save your Gold during Fall so you can buy the stones you want.
Yellow - 4,000 G
Orange - 10,000 G
Red - 5,000 G
Green - 8,000 G
Blue - 5,000 G
Indigo - 50,000 G
Purple - 2,000 G
Wasn't some of this information misleading? Or at least somewhat incorrect. If you are persistent it will still get youVeggie Angel wrote:Your first year Chen will stock one red wonderful, one yellow wonderful, and one blue wonderful. Once you buy them he will sell wonderful chips on the 10th of each season and will have wonderfuls in the Winter of the each year for sale.
The color of these Winter wonderfuls will depend on the invisible degree points you have. The following quote is by Miki3220 from a thread called "How to get wonderfuls in winter"
