Chapter 148 Pharmacy
Riding on the pier, Zhang Cheng felt a little disappointed with the quality of the sea water. The water was turbid, and there were algae and a small amount of garbage floating objects. I don’t know if it was floating in Japan.
Overall, the scenery is far from the promotional video, and I don’t know how the photographer of the promotional video takes the scenery is as pitiful as the Japanese cover killer.
Just as he was thinking, Catherine also rode a horse, wearing a cowboy hat and a telescope hanging on her chest to the dock.
Katherine immediately looked at the public beach a mile away with a telescope, and then looked at the sea water near the pier and said, "It was all those people who made the sea water here dirty."
Dear, are you the reincarnation of Master Bai Yi? Zhang Cheng took the telescope in Catherine's hand and looked at the beach diagonally opposite. There were hundreds of people basking in the sun or playing couple games like you chase me and I chase you. Some of them went into the water at this time, but only a few of them.
There are only a dozen inflatable rubber boats and lifebuoys seen on the water. Even if you don’t count them, you can see that the number of people in the sea is not as high as that in a swimming pool in China in summer. What’s rare is that the ratio of men and women here is much better than that of domestic swimming pools. No matter how you look at three or four people, there is a woman among them, which is 2 to 1 or 3 to 1. Although the yang is still strong and the yin is weak, otherwise the three American young people would not have come to this private territory to pick up girls.
Zhang Chenggang said, "It's not a lot."
Catherine: "There will continue to be people coming in the afternoon, and the camping party and the XO party in the evening. God, come a great white shark."
Many people don’t go into the water, so it’s useless to ask for a great white shark. If you really want to disperse the crowd, you have to get a saltwater crocodile. That’s great that it’s an amphibian.
Zhang Cheng: "Forget it, is it like this if there are any sea water nearby? The population of tens of millions of California is just a serious pollution of domestic sewage. When the ship comes, it should be much better to go to the outside sea."
Catherine: "Okay, you can drive a boat to the Pacific Ocean to catch tuna. But now let's go shopping in San Francisco first."
Zhang Cheng: "OK. I just happened to buy a fishing rod too."
Zhang Cheng had long seen a nano-level high-grade polymer fishing rod that claimed to be fine to lift whales. It is said that a layer of nano-level shed fiber was pressed outside the nano-level carbon fiber, which was lighter and had a great increase in hardness and elasticity. The price was cheaper for Zhang Cheng now. It was only 9998 US dollars, and if you buy it now, you will have a 10,000 yuan discount.
By the way, Zhang Cheng’s first fishing rod when he was a child was made by Zhang Cheng. In terms of material, bamboo is also carbon fiber. Yes, just change it.
He drove the largest RV to the fishing gear store first. Zhang Cheng, who had originally wanted to buy a fishing rod, was introduced and promoted by the salesperson, and then bought a shark-proof diving suit, diving glasses, spear guns, harpoons, fishing nets and several high-tech baits - so that you don’t have to dig earthworms before fishing, which is considered as technology changing your life.
Although I bought a lot, it was not the salesperson who introduced what Zhang Cheng bought. For example, I didn’t buy a diving suit, compressed oxygen cylinder and respirator. It was not that Zhang Cheng didn’t want to dive so deep, but that Zhang Cheng didn’t use those equipment and could dive deeper than divers equipped with those equipment and stayed at the bottom for a longer time.
The water pressure of one or two hundred meters has almost no effect on Zhang Cheng's current physical strength. As for oxygen, Zhang Cheng can adjust the body's demand and let the body store a lot of oxygen before entering the water. It is not that difficult for Zhang Cheng to reduce the body's demand for oxygen after entering the water - hibernation and fake death Zhang Cheng can easily do this by controlling the body's body.
Put away the fishing gear and swipe your card to check out. Then there is Catherine's shopping. The new home lacks a lot of things. However, most of the goods can be bought in one supermarket.
But there are two other things that only San Francisco Chinatown can sell. Catherine recently felt that her skin was getting tenderer, but after seeing Rebecca, Catherine felt that she could be even tenderer.
On the Internet, Catherine saw two Chinese magic medicines that are said to have a strong nourishing effect on the body and skin - donkey-hide gelatin and deer fetus cream. Zhang Cheng knew that among traditional Chinese medicine, especially the expensive tonics, Huatou prevented Catherine from buying online at most. It is better to buy this kind of thing after seeing the real thing. Speaking of understanding Chinese medicine, Zhang Cheng is also half an expert.
But it is only because of half an expert that I know the story inside. For example, if you recognize the drug dealer who sells horn powder as rhino horn powder, you can still say with confidence: "Isn't it just a word? Are rhinoceros and scalpers still all oxen?"
Your sister, are snails or cows?
So those who use pig skin to make donkey-hide gelatin dare to say: "Pig skin has higher nutritional value."
Dear, what we need is whether the medicinal properties are good. Shennong, who tasted all herbs, was poisoned to death. Isn’t it just to try the medicinal properties? Prescribe the right medicine and the right medicine. Although these people may not be able to kill people, the corruption of traditional Chinese medicine cannot be related to them.
In the past, it might have been a myth that Shennong tasted all herbs was a myth, but in modern genetics, the TAS2R16 bitter gene unique to the Chinese genes. This gene allows people to identify which drugs are poisonous - thus confirming that the Chinese ancestors tasted all herbs to try poison was true.
When I got off at a Chinese medicine store in Chinatown, Catherine took Zhang Cheng in and said, "My name is Catherine, I have made an appointment."
"Ah, I have an impression. Drink something, coffee or tea." The pharmacy owner saw Catherine bringing a Chinese to see the goods and sneered in his heart: I thought Chinese people knew Chinese medicine, and today I let you know what it means to be like a mountain in a distance.
Catherine: "There is no need for drinks, let's take a look. My friend has some research on Chinese medicinal materials."
The pharmacy owner: "Okay, okay, then who? Hurry up and show Miss Catherine the donkey-hide gelatin and deer fetus cream on our cabinet. These are all great replenishments."
The guy took out the sample from the counter and showed it to Catherine and Zhang Cheng. Catherine didn't understand at all. Zhang Cheng took the deer fetus cream and smelled it and knew that the goods were wrong: "This is made of sheep fetus."
The pharmacy owner was shocked, but he said naturally: "Isn't this the territory of foreigners? I have some foreign style."
In fact, what the boss wants to say is that although there are many wild deer in the United States, no one raises deer. Domestic deer feces, deer antlers and even deer skins are good things, but Americans are only fond of deer antlers obtained from hunting, and they are willing to feed the best venison dogs. Deer skins are good furs, but that's all.
The Americans never wanted to develop it. As for raising deer, no one wanted to go over and raise it in artificial breeding when facing the kind of guys running around on the road and on the ranch.
Ignoring the boss's bastard theory, Zhang Cheng took the donkey-hide gelatin and sniffed it, and the smell was not right: "The authentic donkey-hide gelatin you have made from horse skin, not right."
The pharmacy owner: "The foreigners ride horses, so there are so many donkeys."
Zhang Cheng: "We don't care about that, we just bought medicine. Do you have any authentic products here?"
The pharmacy owner: "The deer antler bear galls here are all genuine. You can tell that you are an expert. Do you have the point?"
