Alchemist Sword Sect
Chapter 4402 Stronghold
"This pill is really amazing. After taking it last night, I found that my memory has greatly improved. Today's English test was very easy."
"Classmate, you took it yesterday, and I just took it today. Not to mention this pill, cramming it before the exam can do wonders."
"What are you talking about?"
"Oh, you don't know yet? Someone recently sold the Brain God Pill. After taking it, I found that my brain was much better."
"Is it really that magical?"
“You’ll know after you try it.”
The whole school began to spread rumors about the power of this brain pill. Naturally, this propaganda team is made up of those who got the pills for free.
Taking advantage of this hot juncture, Lu Chen took the opportunity to sell the Brain Pill in front of the dormitory building.
"Classmate, I heard that this brain pill is very powerful. Do you have any more to give away today?"
"Ah, this classmate, I also have a small business. I don't have anything to give away now. Two hundred a piece will guarantee that you will pass every exam."
"It's too expensive."
"If it's not expensive, it won't show how precious it is." Lu Chen said quickly when he saw that this classmate was still hesitant.
But after all, it's not just a matter of tens of dollars. A pill costs two hundred dollars. For some students, it's really not a small amount of money, but for other students, it's just child's play.
After all, many of the people who go to college are wealthy people, and they all come here because they heard about the power of this medicine. One purchase is ten pieces. In one day, Lu Chen sold almost all the brain pills in his hand, with only a dozen pills left.
With 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in hand, Lu Chen did not use the first pot of gold to spend it freely, but planned to buy medicinal materials to make the so-called cultivation pill.
After visiting all the medicine shops, the lowest-level cultivation elixir only needs a few medicinal ingredients to start refining.
He had searched all the pharmacies in the city for this medicinal ingredient but could not find any trace of it. However, he heard from a pharmacy clerk that he could go to the flower and bird market in the north of the city. There were many people there and they sold all kinds of weird things.
Lu Chen rushed to the flower and bird market in the north of the city in a hurry. As expected, this place was many times bigger than the vegetable market in his hometown, and the noise was endless.
Through the first section of the road, there was nothing special except for the ones selling some flowers, plants, insects and birds. It was not until they came to the inside of the market that Lu Chen's horizons were opened.
There is everything here, and there are all sorts of things that Lu Chen has never seen before. And here is where some cultural relic dealers come and go. Seeing the pile of porcelain of unknown age on the ground, Lu Chen stopped curiously.
"Young man, what do you want to order? I have things from all dynasties here. Look, this is celadon from the Song Dynasty. It has a thin body and fine texture, and the glaze is the upper layer. How about I give you a fair price of one thousand yuan."
Lu Chen smiled, this thing was too small to even serve him a meal. He couldn't believe that one thousand yuan could buy celadon from the Song Dynasty. But he was just looking at them and obviously had no interest in these antiques. He was here to buy medicinal materials, not Taobao.
"Boss, do you sell any medicine here?"
"What kind of medicine?" The boss was a little surprised. Some people came to the flower and bird market to buy medicine.
"A medicine called thyme."
"Don't talk about thyme, I have all the thyme!" The boss laughed, pulled Lu Chen into the front room, and closed the door with his backhand.
"Do you want this product?" The boss took out a plastic bag of white powder from his pocket.
"Haha, boss, you may have misunderstood. I'm really here to buy medicine."
"I'll give it to you cheaper." The boss seemed to think that Lu Chen was here to bargain.
"Don't talk about boss, you really have a lot of things in there." Lu Chen did not pay attention to the white powder on the boss's hands, but visited the entire store. In addition to some ordinary jade and porcelain, there were also a lot of gold items. It seems that this boss has some skills. The style of those things is not modern craftsmanship. They are probably things taken out of tombs.
"Are you really here to buy medicinal materials? I only have medicinal materials in this cupboard here. There are not many. There are only a few that just came from one person." After saying that, the boss led Lu Chen to a glass cabinet. The medicinal materials inside Many of them were things that Lu Chen had never seen before.
But he focused on a flower that looked like a morning glory, which looked very much like the thyme described in the book.
"Boss, can you let me see that thing?"
"Morning flower?" The boss was not from the medicine shop, so he naturally thought it was just an ordinary morning glory. The person who was selling the stuff at the time didn't know what he was selling, so he took it out of a tomb. Sold to myself along with other things.
Even though he said so, the boss still gave Lu Chen the morning glory.
Lu Chen touched the petals, and sure enough it felt stinging. When he lowered his head and smelled it, it turned out to be a pungent fishy smell. Yes, this is exactly the thyme described in the book, because the taste is unmistakable.
"This smelly flower is exactly the thyme you mentioned? Then why doesn't it smell good?" The boss has been in this industry for so long, and he has a very good ability to observe people's emotions. When Lu Chen smiled, it was obvious that this thing was thyme. But how could this smelly flower be called thyme?
"Boss, if I want this thing, please give me a price." Lu Chen didn't know how much this thing was worth, but he knew it was good just because it wasn't in the drug store, and he was worried about whether he had enough money in his pocket.
"One thousand yuan, it can't be lower." The boss said directly. He didn't spend any money on this thing. It was a gift from the tomb robber. Turning around and looking at Lu Chen's dress, he knew that this was not a rich man. He was ready to bargain with him after setting a price. "Okay, one thousand is one thousand." Lu Chen was very happy, but he didn't expect that this most important medicine would actually be used. It only cost a thousand yuan. I guess this boss is a little ignorant.
Sure enough, the boss agreed when he saw Lu Chen. It seemed that he had bid the wrong price, but businessmen pay attention to credit. What's more, this thing has been in the store for a long time, and no one has taken a fancy to it. I would be satisfied if I sold it for a thousand yuan.
Lu Chen paid a thousand yuan and kept the thyme close to his body. He was afraid that others might see it and then he slipped into the crowd and headed towards the exit.
Before Lu Chen could go far, the boss came with another business.
"Miss, what do you want? I have antiques from all eras here." He looked at the girl again. She was dressed in an expensive outfit, and even the necklace around her neck was probably worth a lot of money. Naturally, her expression became more enthusiastic. . Nowadays, not all rich people are good at this.
"Do you have a medicinal herb called thyme in your store?"
"Why are there so many people asking for thyme today?"
"Boss, you do." Upon hearing the boss's words, the girl became excited and grabbed the boss's hand. I searched all the medicine shops but couldn't find any, so I came to this flower and bird market to try my luck. I went to several medicine shops that either didn't sell medicinal materials, or they only sold things like thousand-year-old ginseng, ten-year-old snow lotus and other deceptive things. I just don’t have the thyme I need.
"Yes, there is, but it was bought by a young man just now, that's the one." Looking at Lu Chen who was about to walk out of the flower and bird market, the boss pointed it out to the girl.
"Thank you, boss." After saying that, the girl chased Lu Chen.
"Sir, please stay." Lu Chen was walking on the road when he heard someone calling from behind, but he didn't think it was him. Because he doesn't think he is Mr.
"Sir, wait for me." The rapid sound of high heels could be heard from behind, approaching Lu Chen.
Not me, not me. Lu Chen, as if he had done something wrong, muttered silently in his mind and pressed the thyme in his arms tighter.
At this time, a hand was placed on Lu Chen's shoulder.
"Ah, it's not me!" Lu Chen actually shouted.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Lu Chen's strange appearance, she was a little confused. Could this person be crazy?
Only then did Lu Chen realize that he had not done anything sneaky, and the thyme on his body was obtained through normal trading, so he had nothing to be afraid of.
So Chase Lu turned his head, wondering who had called him, and as soon as he turned his head, a pretty face appeared in front of him. The girl put her hands behind her and lowered her head. Her long flowing hair covered most of her face, but her bright red mouth aroused Lu Chen's desire.
"Miss, what's the matter?" Lu Chen pretended to be calm, but his heart jumped. Why did such a temperamental girl stop him? Are you attracted to me? Lu Chen immediately rejected it. Although he was somewhat confident in his appearance, he was not arrogant yet.
"I heard you had thyme."
"No!" Lu Chen hurriedly covered his chest and immediately rejected the girl. Although the girl was good-looking, this thyme was related to his future plans to make a fortune. Lu Chen subconsciously made a choice.
"Sir, please make a price." Seeing Chase Lu's actions, the girl immediately knew that the thyme was in Chen Lu's arms.
"I won't sell it for any amount." Since Lu Chen had been discovered, Lu Chen wouldn't hide it. He wouldn't sell it even if he was beaten to death.
"Sir, please, I'm going to take this medicine to save my life. You must help me." As she said this, the girl almost knelt down.
"Hey, don't be like this, it's so ugly." Lu Chen was not a hard-hearted person. When he saw the girl bending her knees and was about to kneel down, he quickly reached out and grabbed the girl's arm. It's all silky smooth. It seems that this girl comes from a good family, otherwise it would be impossible to take care of her skin so well.
"Ahem, you mean saving people?" Lu Chen kicked out the wrong thoughts in his mind in embarrassment, and quickly withdrew his hand when he picked up the girl.
"Yes, sir, my father is bedridden. He went to many big hospitals but could not do anything. Finally, he invited a famous Chinese medicine doctor. He said that he could save his father with Baicao Xiang."
Doctor of traditional Chinese medicine? He couldn't be a charlatan. This herbaceous incense is not even available in pharmacies. How could this Chinese medicine doctor know about it? It must be some charlatan.
"But, I also need this herb incense urgently." Lu Chen was a little embarrassed. After all, this herb incense is difficult to find. If he chooses to give it to this girl now, he doesn't know if he can find it in the future.
"What disease does your father suffer from?"
"Blood cancer."
No wonder some big hospitals are unable to do anything. This blood cancer is leukemia, which is basically a terminal illness.
"How about I think about it again."
"Sir, I don't have much time. Please reply to me as soon as possible. This is my phone number. My name is Ning Shan. If you figure it out, just call me." Obviously, this Thyme is also extremely fond of Lu Chen. It was important, so Ning Shan did not force others to make things difficult for her. They had already said they would consider it, so that was the biggest concession. Ning Shan had no choice but to wait for the good news.
"Okay, just give me one night to think about it. I'll call you tomorrow." Lu Chen took the thyme and walked to the garbage dump outside the city. After all, this refining medicine is no better than others, so he has to find a secret spot. The place. Naturally, the garbage dump outside the city has now become Lu Chen's base for refining medicine.
