when we did make purchases in China we predominantly use either alipay or WeChat and I would say 95% of the time we use alipay and the best thing about using alipay there's a in one of the menu options there it actually saves every single transaction you've done
Transport
Travelshorts’ observation: Taxis in China are exceptionally cheap and highly recommended when traveling with children and heavy luggage between train stations and hotels.

taxis in China I thly recommend um you don't need to use public transport everywhere you go especially as I was traveling with kids um it would have been a little bit more Awkward especially when we're going from train stations carrying all our luggage taxis made life so much easier
