I returned to my residence by the river. Although I was a little tired, I still entered the space. This time, there were a lot of good things in the space, including medicinal materials and some weird fish.
Jiangbian is very curious about what kind of changes the addition of these things will bring to the system.
As soon as he entered the space, the first change Jiangbian felt was that the spiritual energy inside became more intense.
Although the medicinal materials had only been transplanted not long ago, Jiangbian thought that it would take at least a period of recovery before they would bring significant changes to the space.
But this time, two creatures that are very helpful to the space have moved into the river, one is the flame tree, and the other is the strange fish. The strange fish is the most difficult creature to deal with when you get the fishing rod by the river, and the flame tree it protects is naturally equally extraordinary. Later, I found several creatures that were similar to the strange fish. Their effects should be quite good, and the medicinal herbs they guarded were certainly not much different.
The great increase in the spiritual energy concentration in the space is closely related to the two.
The thoughts of the riverside dived into the water and found that the herbs transplanted from the sea were full of vitality and showed no signs of acclimatization. It seems that those marine fish have no growth problems due to entering fresh water.
This made Jiangbian feel relieved. As for whether the space has grown, it is no longer a very important issue, because the area of ??the space can already meet the needs of the riverside, and even if the area of ??the space increases, it may not be visible.
As soon as Jiangbian moved in the space, the four wolfdogs immediately noticed Jiangbian's arrival, and walked towards the riverside surrounded by the little gray dog.
Even the tiger looked here, but it didn't look directly at the river. Instead, it glanced sideways, and then lay down on the lawn gloomily.
The strange fish poked its head out of the "Lujiang River" and looked blankly at the riverside, a little confused. When he saw this human being, not only was he not angry, but he felt a sense of intimacy. After a few glances, he sank into the water. Several fish species similar to the strange fish have almost the same reaction as the strange fish.
In fact, when the riverside brought in these powerful marine fish, they were worried that these fish would not get along well with each other, fight each other, or even hunt. Unexpectedly, these fish seemed to get along very well after entering the space, and even got along well with the old resident of the space, the golden-threaded blood eel.
By the riverside, he took stock of the medicinal materials scavenged from the sea, and calculated that it was almost ready to refine the pulse-nourishing pill. When the sky is clear, go to the market to buy back the missing medicinal materials, and then buy some alchemy utensils, and that should be enough.
If everything is normal, you will be able to know the effect of the Nourishing Pulse Pill the next day.
After counting everything, Jiangbian felt a strong sense of sleepiness rushing into his heart.
Jiang Bian persisted in practicing the Qi Refining Technique, but the effect was much better than usual, and the time required was also shortened a lot.
At dawn, Jiangbian left early, and his destination was naturally the Qiantang Medicinal Materials Market.
The medicinal materials needed by the riverside are very common: Millet Spatholobus, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Tianxian Teng
" But Jiangbian's needs are more troublesome. What he needs are fresh medicinal materials. Only in this way can the full potency of the medicine be ensured.
"Fresh ones? No, no. The medicinal materials we bring here are all dried. How can fresh ones be transported like this? They'll be rotten by the time they arrive here!" The first wholesaler was a lean middle-aged man. , upon hearing Jiangbian¡¯s explanation of his purpose, he quickly shook his head.
"Fresh ones? Are you going to fry them or cook them? Then you have to go to the vegetable market to buy them! We only sell dried ones here. Young man, your needs are really weird! Sorry, I have to do business. , you go to another house and ask!" When the fat woman from the second house heard that Jiangbian wanted to buy fresh medicinal materials, she immediately bent over with a smile. Seeing a customer coming to the door of the shop, he immediately threw the river aside.
"Fresh ones? Little brother, are you using them for ornamental purposes? This market is for making medicinal materials, and you will definitely not be able to get a single fresh medicinal material. I think you can go to the Flower, Plant, Insect and Fish Market, where there are some ornamental materials." Plants are medicinal materials. After all, many medicinal materials also have great ornamental value. However, the price is a bit expensive. If you want to buy it, you need to prepare more money. Another way is to buy it at the place of origin. Well, This is a bit complicated, because you have to go to different places for different medicinal materials." The third family is an old man with a kind face and is very enthusiastic. Although Jiangbian will not buy his medicinal materials, he still enthusiastically tells How could Jiangbian buy the fresh medicinal materials he needed?
"Flowers, grass, insects and fish market?" JiangbianThe light comes on. After looking around, I found that Jiangbian did not see a place to buy fresh medicinal materials. If I kept asking from store to store, there would be no other results.
This time, Jiangbian found the right place. The flower, grass, insect and fish market actually sold ornamental medicinal materials, including ornamental ginseng. The only thing is that the medicinal materials used for ornamental purposes are all of a certain age. So the price is naturally high. Fortunately, at this time, Jiangbian is really not short of money.
"Millapore, brother, you have really good taste! This Millapore is found from the deep mountains of Laos. Look at the color of this vine, it has turned purple. If you cut a knife on it, you can slip away. The sap that looks like blood comes out. That¡¯s how this vine got its name. Look, there are still fruits hanging on it! Put it in your home, and it¡¯s full of business! I¡¯ll give it to you, brother, for such a good Millet Spatholobus for 888 yuan. ! The main thing is to see the brothers fall in love! Those who engage in flower, grass, insect and fish breeding are all about a good relationship. If there is no fate, I will take it back to you. I won¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t be able to raise it for a few days. If it is ruined, I will be heartbroken!" Jiangbian left before leaving. When we arrived at the medicinal medicinal area, a thin man in his thirties who spoke Qiantang dialect immediately enthusiastically introduced his pot of Millet Spatholobus.
The thin man¡¯s name is Xiao Fuwei, and he has been growing flowers and plants here for more than ten years.
Although Jiangbian doesn¡¯t know the market, he knows about the Millet Spatholobus, which is found in his hometown on Lue Mountain. When Jiang Bian was a child, the children in the village liked to use the juice from the Millet Spatholobus to deceive adults.
Jiang Bian smiled and said, "There are so many of these things in the mountains, why do you need to go to Laos to find them? Besides, you are just a new vine that has been planted for a year or two. How dare you say it is an old vine? The skin of the old vine should have been long ago It has turned dark red! I have some use for this thing. Can you sell it for 100 yuan? If not, I will find it elsewhere!"
Xiao Fuwei actually doesn¡¯t know much about Millipede vine. What he told Jiangbian just now is all nonsense. Anyway, if you buy something worth tens of dollars, it¡¯s better if you can sell it more, and you won¡¯t lose money if you can¡¯t sell it. In this business, the original plan is not to open for three years and to last for three years after opening. It's a bit exaggerated to say this, but if it doesn't open for three days, it won't be a big problem if it opens for three days.
Seeing that Jiang Bian was very knowledgeable, even though he could not make much money, Xiao Fuwei happily sold the Millet Spatholobus to Jiang Bian, "Brother, since you know the business, I will give it to you at a discount. I didn't just tell you that It is said that this business of flowers, plants, insects and fish is all about fate, since brother you are the one who is destined, I will naturally give it to you."
Jiang Bian gave Xiao Fuwei an unexpected surprise and bought all the plates of Millet Spatholobi that were not popular in his store. So although I didn¡¯t make much money per pot, I still made several hundred yuan, and I got rid of a burden. The thin man smiled so hard that his mouth twisted.
But everyone in the Flower, Grass, Insect and Fish Market knows that Xiao Fuwei¡¯s mouth is crooked whether he smiles or not.
"Brother, do you want anything else? The ornamental medicinal materials I have here are definitely the most complete in the market. If you like them, I will definitely give you the lowest price in the city." The thin man introduced to Jiangbian with great enthusiasm. Pick up all kinds of medicinal materials in your own store.
Fortunately, there is really what the riverside needs. At first glance, I saw a Ligusticum chuanxiong plant by the river.
"Speaking of Ligusticum chuanxiong, it's a long story!" Xiao Fuwei began to deceive again.
Jiangbian was not disgusted with Xiao Fuwei and allowed him to tell stories.
"It is said that the king of medicine, Sun Simiao, traveled with his disciples, overcoming thorns and thorns to collect medicinal materials. One day, the master and the disciples were tired from walking, so they rested under the shade of a tree in the green pine forest. Suddenly they saw a big female crane by the mountain stream in the forest, carrying a few A small crane was playing. The King of Medicine was lost in thought when he suddenly heard the screams of several small cranes. He saw the big female crane with her head and neck drooped, her feet trembling, and she kept whining. The King of Medicine understood that the female crane was suffering from a sudden illness. . Early the next morning, Master Yao Wang and his disciples went to the Green Pine Forest again, and the moans of the sick cranes in the nest were clearly audible. Another day later, Master Yao Wang and his disciples went to the Green Pine Forest again, but the sick cranes could no longer be heard in the nest of the white cranes. groaned. A few white cranes soared in the air and dropped a small white flower and a few leaves, which looked like carrot leaves. The King of Medicine asked his apprentice to pick them up and keep them. This medicine is called Chuanxiong. This medicine in our store Ligusticum chuanxiong comes from Qingcheng Mountain in Shu Province. Look, this rhizome is as big as a fist. It is at least decades old!" Xiao Fuwei is very good at telling stories.
Jiangbian looked at it and nodded, "Well, this is indeed an old thing, but it can be found everywhere in the mountains, just like the weeds in the mountains. You can't say that thatch that is thousands of years old in the mountains is rare!"
Xiao Fuwei hasn¡¯t said the price yet. He wiped the sweat with his hand. He seemed a little tired from telling the story just now.
"Well, since my brother is an expert, I won't tell you the price and will just give you a low price. It's 200 yuan per plate and there are six pots in total. Just take whatever you want!" Xiao Fuwei said with some frustration.
"Xiao Monkey, I finally saw you deflated for once. It's really rare!" The shop next to it didn't do much business and was also listening.Xiao Fuwei tells stories. As soon as he saw Xiao Fuwei's dejected look at having failed, he immediately smiled crookedly.
"Xiao Fuwei didn't care. He chuckled and said, "I've met an expert and there's nothing I can do. Why don't you give it a try when he comes to your shop?"
When Jiangbian once again took a fancy to the fairy vine, Xiao Fuwei quoted the lowest price without wasting any more words. But what surprised Xiao Fuwei was that the fairy vine had never been seen on the riverside, and it didn't even exist in the Helu Mountain. Jiangbian has almost never been to other mountains and forests. Nature has never been seen before.
With Xiao Fuwei¡¯s experience here, everyone in the market knows that this young boy is a veteran and is not easy to fool, so when Jiangbian comes to buy medicinal materials, he directly quotes a low price. Jiang Bian laughed in his heart.
When I went back, there was a cart full of fresh medicinal materials on the riverside. They were sent directly to the preparation room of the Fish Flavor Restaurant, which only Jiang Bian and Yan Yuan could enter. There was a room full of them. After the delivery person left, Jiangbian hurriedly moved the medicinal materials into the space. The preparation room was restored to its original state.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind! We have all the medicinal materials, all we need is the alchemy furnace for making elixirs. This is a big problem. Although Jiang Bian knew the material of the alchemy furnace and the construction method from the alchemy formula, there were still many problems to be solved in order to actually do this.
In terms of alchemy techniques, the core materials for building the alchemy furnace include jade crystal and star sand, as well as some common materials. This jade crystal is not that easy to find, and Jiangbian doesn't know where to find the star sand.
"This is a headache." Jiang Bian frowned.
I didn¡¯t know how to solve the problem, so Jiangbian was not in a hurry and immediately walked to the fish restaurant.
"Brother, let me tell you good news!" When Jiangbian walked to the door of the fish restaurant, Yan Yuan came out happily.
Seeing Yan Yuan's successful appearance by the river, Jiangbian asked curiously, "Have you received any good ingredients again?"
Yan Yuan shook his head, "With you here, what kind of ingredients can't be obtained? Is this thing worthy of me being so happy?"
"Did you make a lot of money today? Killed a foreign businessman?" Jiang Bian asked.
"Get out! I, Yan Yuan, have always been fair in doing business. Even if a Japanese soldier comes to eat with a dog, I will give him the same price. How could he do that kind of thing?" Yan Yuan kicked the butt by the river.
Although Jiangbian was walking in front, he seemed to have eyes behind him, and he moved out of the way nimbly.
"Forget it, let me tell you directly! That boy Yuan Wenguang is unlucky! This guy is worse than a pig or a dog, and he actually did such an immoral thing!" Yan Yuan said.
Jiangbian became interested, "Then what unethical thing did Yuan Wenguang do?"
¡°Have you watched the news this morning?¡± Yan Yuan asked.
Jiangbian shook his head.
"That's it! Last night, the police sealed up the Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory. The Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory actually mixed cooking oil with water oil. Fortunately, our store never uses blended oil, nor the oil from the Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory." Yan Yuan said.
Jiangbian was very aware of this matter, and naturally began to vaguely understand the whole story, "What does that have to do with Yuan Wenguang? I remember Yuan Wenguang is a hotel owner!"
"You don't know this! On the surface, he did only build one hotel. In fact, he secretly built many industries. This vegetable oil factory was originally a state-owned enterprise. After Yuan Wenguang became the deputy mayor, The vegetable oil factory went bankrupt and was sold under his operation. But everyone knows that the factory was considered bankrupt and then sold at a low price. The businessman who purchased the Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory was actually Yuan Wenguang's puppet. Therefore, the Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory Everything the factory does is controlled by Yuan Wenguang!"
It suddenly dawned on the river bank.
"Now that there is such a big problem at the Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory, Yuan Wenguang will definitely not be able to escape his involvement. But their family is not an ordinary family, so it is naturally impossible to accept such a result. So after paying a certain price, Yuan Wenguang successfully escaped! It is said that He ran away last night. He is probably already outside the country by this time." Yan Yuan still felt a little regretful that such a scum did not receive the punishment he deserved.
Jiangbian didn¡¯t expect that for such a big thing, the culprit could escape unharmed, and he felt nameless anger in his heart. You have to know that several of your own people almost lost their lives.
"Alas, that's how society is today. Before the law, there are no rules! It's not effective against powerful people." Yan Yuan explained when he saw the strange expression on the riverside.
"Actually, you don't know the inside story. There is a big mystery about what happened yesterday. If he hadn't met someone he couldn't afford to offend, Yuan Wenguang wouldn't have even had to run away, and even Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory would still be operating as usual."Yuan seems to know everything clearly.
Jiangbian didn¡¯t need to think about it to know that Yan Yuan¡¯s family was not simple either.
"For me, it's very sad that whether that bastard ran away or was captured, he can no longer be my opponent! But thinking about it, it is really a shame to compete with such a person for so long." Yan Yuan It seems to have opened up the conversation.
"I understand, your love rival is gone! It means that your future love road will be smooth." Jiangbian said.
Yan Yuan chuckled, "Who knows if that guy will see me lowering the difficulty and increase the difficulty coefficient for me?"
Yan Yuan said this casually, and when he thought about it carefully, it was really possible.
"Then you have to hurry up. You should look for her more often. You can't just stay in the fish restaurant!" Jiang Bian said.
"No, I can't go to her place. Besides, she doesn't like boys who don't do their job properly." Yan Yuan said.
"Isn't that right? Didn't you say before that she gave you a chance to compete with Yuan Wenguang? Now that Yuan Wenguang will defeat himself without a fight, isn't it a matter of course for you?" Jiangbian suddenly remembered what Yan Yuan had said before.
"Uh!" Yan Yuan was a little embarrassed, "She just casually said that Yuan Wenguang and I would decide the winner first, but she didn't say that she would definitely date me!"
"I understand, you and Yuan Wenguang are just competing for a position to pursue her. In fact, they have not even taken you into consideration!" Jiang Bian finally understood.
"That's it!" Yan Yuan was a little frustrated.
"I didn't know what to say! I'm going to the kitchen!" After Jiang Bian finished speaking, he walked to the kitchen.
Yan Yuan said loudly from behind, "I knew I couldn't tell you. Once I tell you, I will look down on you!"
"I didn't, I just felt that the kitchen was very busy and I should help." From the kitchen, the sound of the river came.
At noon, the fish restaurant¡¯s business was busier than usual. In addition to some old customers, there were also some new faces.
"Alas, your fish restaurant is the only one that is reliable! I remember that the oil here is obtained from rapeseed and tea seeds directly from the countryside and pressed out. I said that every time I come to eat at your place, there is no problem at all. I get diarrhea after eating at home, so it turns out it¡¯s an oil problem! All the oil we use at home is oil from Yishui Vegetable Oil Factory!¡±
¡°You can rest assured about the oil we have here, there will definitely be no problem! I send special personnel to collect the oil crops and then send it to an acquaintance¡¯s oil pressing factory for pressing, so there will be no problems at all.¡± Yan Yuan said.
"Really? Then I want to taste the oil in your store to see if it is adulterated with water?" Before Yan Yuan could finish his words, he was loudly interrupted by a girl who walked in from outside the door.
Yan Yuan looked back, his face immediately filled with a smile.
The girl who came in was Liu Ruxuan, Yan Yuan's dream lover, who shared the same fate with Jiangbian that night.
