Shenmue Dojo

So, this save, for the first time in like 10 years I wanna go for duck racing. Problem is, I transferred a save from Shenmue and it's only January 17th.

How many days does it take to get on Fangmei's good side or whatever? I'm trying to figure out how many days to skip at the barber qte.

i usually skip until about the 25th or 26th of Feb. that should give you plenty of time to win her affection by the 3rd.

one trick to easily getting Fangmei's affections rather than speaking to her each day is to lose the Man Mo park fight (triggered by using chawan sign at man mo bistro). the following day she will automatically start calling you Ryo. otherwise you'll need to get about 12 successful responses to her questions, which might take 3 to 5 days.

You don't need to activate Fangmei's sidequest to enter the duck racing. But I guess you wanna do both anyway.

I'm spending a lot of time sparring with Jianmin.

Edit: I was going off http://shenmue.neoseeker.com/wiki/Duck_Racing which made me think you had to start the Fangmei crap, when in reality you only have to go meet Eileen in the park.

That was a lot easier to start the duck racing stuff than I thought.

Thanks for the help

I edited my last post to show why I made this dumb topic. Been so long since I did duck racing, I was really confused about that.
