The weather also turned cold, and Qingshui County received its first heavy snowfall.
In the sky, goose-feather-like snowflakes were floating, covering the sky and the earth, and the entire county seemed to be wrapped in a layer of snow-white cotton.
Even during the day, there are very few pedestrians on the streets.
There are no naughty children having snowball fights.
Once you get cold, it will cost you a lot of money.
If you are unlucky and encounter a quack doctor, you may lose your life.
"Gulu gulu..."
In the courtyard, Chen Xuan was boiling the secret skin-scaling medicine.
After hundreds of repeated trials, the medicinal materials consumed exceeded one hundred taels of silver. A few days ago, he had successfully imitated the secret dermabrasion medicine. However, the secret medicine he had just brewed was different from the one provided by Huang Hong.
almost.
After several days of repeated trials, corrections, and corrections.
The effect of the dermabrasion elixir he brewed is almost the same as that of the genuine dermabrasion elixir.
It can be said that this is the authentic secret medicine for microdermabrasion.
With the genuine secret medicine for microdermabrasion, Chen Xuan no longer needs Huang Hong’s imitation secret medicine.
He brews the secret skin-removing medicine for his own use.
After a while, the secret medicine was ready.
Chen Xuan picked up the casserole and poured the medicinal soup into a bowl to cool down.
"One tael of medicinal materials is boiled into a secret medicine, and it is put in a bottle containing the secret medicine from the Giant Bear Martial Arts Hall. It can hold about twenty bottles, which means it can be sold for twenty silver. This is really a huge profit!"
Chen Xuan sighed in his heart.
Even if the imitation secret medicine sold by Huang Hong costs 200 Wen a bottle, twenty bottles will cost 4,000 Wen, which is four taels of silver, and there is still three times the profit.
Moreover, the cost of the medicinal materials for this two taels of silver was purchased from the drug store.
If some big forces purchase medicinal materials themselves, the cost of the medicinal materials will only be cheaper and the profits will be higher.
Of course, now the prices of both the original medicinal materials for refining the secret medicine and the secret medicine have all increased, but no matter how the price increases, it will be profitable for those big forces, and it is the warriors who really spend the money.
Soon, the medicinal soup in the bowl cooled down and turned into a black paste. Chen Xuan poured the cooled secret peeling medicine into a gourd as big as a blue ball and stored it.
"With the secret medicine of two gourds, it is enough for me to practice until the end of the skin resurfacing."
It has been nearly three months since he entered the dermabrasion realm, and Chen Xuan has almost completed the dermabrasion of his upper body. Two gourds of secret medicine are enough for him to complete his practice in the dermabrasion realm.
"I'm brewing a gourd's secret medicine to prepare for emergencies."
After pouring out the medicine residue in the casserole, Chen Xuan continued to boil the medicine.
In addition to helping the cultivators in the dermabrasion realm, the secret medicine of dermabrasion can also be used to treat injuries. If a warrior suffers a flesh injury, he can use the secret medicine of dermabrasion to recover quickly.
Therefore, the secret medicine of microdermabrasion has always been very popular, and there is no need to worry about selling it.
But the business of this secret skin resurfacing medicine has long been divided up by several major forces.
Chen Xuan has no background and no power. Even if he can refine the genuine secret skin-scaling medicine, he can only use it himself. If he dares to sell it secretly, once he is discovered, the big forces will not let him, an unknown person, steal business.
In Qingshui County, the forces that dominate the skin microdermabrasion secret medicine business are not comparable to small forces like Huiyuan Medical Center. Such forces can destroy Huiyuan Medical Center with one finger.
Chen Xuan's little arms and legs couldn't block even one of the opponent's fingers.
…
…
A few days later, the heavy snow melted away.
Chen Xuan came to the Giant Bear Martial Arts Hall to train.
There were only a few people practicing on the spacious training ground.
As prices rise, people from ordinary families can no longer afford to practice martial arts. To practice martial arts, you need to eat meat, but now the price of pork has risen to 150 cents per catty. The prices of rice, noodles and vegetables are also rising, and rice is no longer available.
I can hardly afford to eat anymore, and I am even less qualified to practice martial arts.
There have not been many new apprentices since November, only some old faces remain.
After the dermabrasion training, Chen Xuan applied the secret medicine and came to the rest area.
"Chen Xuan, there's been some chaos outside recently, please don't run around."
Huang Hong reminded him.
"What news does Senior Brother Huang have?"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan felt a chill in his heart and asked immediately.
"I'm just talking casually, don't be nervous." Huang Hong said: "You also know that due to the influence of the Kou Tian rebellion in Wanzhou, the bandits in Yuanzhou are much more rampant than before. Some bandits are following the same example and joining forces.
They rose up to form a rebellious army and went around burning, killing and plundering. The mountains were blocked by heavy snow some time ago. If the bandits hiding in the mountains have eaten up all the food, they will definitely come down to rob them, so don’t wander around."
"I understand, thank you Senior Brother Huang for reminding me."
Chen Xuan nodded and said.
"By the way, you really don't need the secret medicine?"
After chatting for a while, Huang Hong began to promote the secret medicine again.
Ever since Chen Xuan didn't buy the secret medicine from Huang Hong, he would come and ask about it every day.
"I have no choice in raising the price. The price of pork and rice is rising, and the price of medicinal materials is also rising. It used to be 200 cents a bottle, but now medicinal materials are in short supply. Some places cannot transport medicinal materials. Now it is 500 cents a bottle.
bottle, but it will definitely continue to rise in the future." Huang Hong said: "Now a bottle of genuine skin-removing secret medicine costs 1,500 yuan. If you want to buy a bottle of genuine skin-scaling secret medicine, you can buy it from me.
Three bottles, why not save money if you can?"
"Senior Brother Huang, the owner is here."
Chen Xuan was thinking about finding a reason to refuse. When he saw Tang Yunxiong entering the martial arts gym, he immediately used Tang Yunxiong as a shield.
Seeing Tang Yunxiong walk in, Huang Hong also felt guilty and walked away immediately.
"Huang Hong, come here, I have something to ask you."
When Tang Yunxiong saw Huang Hong, he immediately called Huang Hong over.
"Ah, master, spare my life!"
After a while, Chen Xuan heard Huang Hong's screams.
"What's going on? Could it be that Senior Brother Huang's secret selling of secret medicine was discovered?"
"It's possible. Otherwise, as a formal disciple, Senior Brother Huang, if he just made a small mistake, how could he alert the owner of the hall to take action personally? The matter of selling the secret medicine must have been discovered."
"Senior brother Huang is really bold enough to sell the secret medicine privately. If this is discovered, there will definitely be no way to survive."
"Senior Brother Huang is dead, so we won't be able to buy cheap secret medicine."
"The price of the secret medicine is one per day now. If we want to complete the practice of microdermabrasion, we need hundreds of taels or even thousands of taels of silver. Even if we find a few gangs to affiliate with us, the few taels of silver are simply not enough.
We practice."
"..."
Hearing Huang Hong's screams, the skin-grinding warriors in the martial arts hall gathered together and discussed in low voices.
They had already expected Huang Hong's death.
Smuggling secret medicine in the Giant Bear Martial Arts School, once discovered, there is basically no way to survive.
What they regret is that after Huang Hong's death, there will be no cheap secret medicine.
Without enough secret medicine to support your cultivation, the progress of your cultivation in the Skin Grinding Realm will definitely be affected.
"This world is so cruel!"
Thinking that Huang Hong, who was selling secret medicine to himself a moment ago, was now dead, Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
