Chapter 35: The fifth level of the day after tomorrow, do a business
February 2nd, the dragon raises its head.
The willows in the palace road are sprouting new buds, and the wind is rolling the bead curtains, making a lot of noise.
The cold has not dissipated, and sleet and snow have come recently, which makes people feel quite uncomfortable.
At six o'clock tonight, Zhao Sheng was staying in the room and had just finished dinner.
This is the best meal he has eaten since the Chinese New Year.
The palace pays attention to seasonality, and February is the time to eat pufferfish.
But he is not a nobleman. Only during the second month of February can the clan mansion get a few pieces.
Since He Chengming was transferred, Youzongyuan has no general manager and is temporarily led by General Manager Hai.
Therefore, Zhao Sheng received a few more examples of pufferfish this year, and Zhao Sheng was blessed.
Pufferfish is highly poisonous and requires a lot of skill on the part of the chef to prepare it.
But if it can do the right thing, the deliciousness of this thing will be unparalleled in the world.
Zhao Sheng took a bite, and the fish melted in his mouth, with a faint milky aroma filling his mouth and nose.
In life, food comes first.
Although Zhao Sheng has achieved immortality, he always reminds himself that he cannot end up withered and like the living dead.
You should enjoy it when you should, so as not to live in vain.
After finishing the puffer fish, the duck with bamboo shoots and rice, Zhao Sheng sighed with satisfaction.
Since practicing martial arts, his appetite has increased a lot.
Fortunately, I became General Manager Hai’s food delivery eunuch, so I didn’t starve myself.
After sitting for a while, he stood up and flexed his fists and feet.
Every move made a low roar like wind and thunder.
Its power is generated from the outside and hidden from the inside, which is just like everyone's style.
Thanks to Xu Fangyan's handling method, his martial arts realm finally improved.
After two months of unremitting efforts, he finally completed all the fascial exercises in his body and successfully entered the muscle-strengthening state!
In addition to having enough food, the food delivery eunuchs in the General Office have the advantage of being free.
He only needs to deliver meals to the people in the General Office on time.
But there are only three people in Zuo Zongyuan's general office including him, which is not a big job.
The remaining time is naturally allocated by him, which gives him enough time to practice martial arts.
If you are still working as a handyman and eunuch outside, working in darkness every day, where will you have the energy and time to practice?
After a set of punches and kicks, some real energy was generated in his body, which he used to transport blood and use it to forge bones.
The sixth level of the day after tomorrow is the bone forging realm.
Bones are hidden deep in the body, and it is extremely difficult for ordinary blood to penetrate their appearance, let alone the bone marrow.
Therefore, this realm requires more effort and medicinal soup than the previous two realms combined.
Just look at Xiao Guizi and you will know.
This kid is extremely talented and has no shortage of medicinal soup to nourish him, but he is still trapped in the fifth level realm for a long time.
"If you can't absorb other people's energy, the blood removal method alone will be a bit slow. You may still need to nourish it with medicinal soup."
Zhao Sheng felt the condition of the bones in his body, and only a tiny bit of the periosteum contained blood and energy.
The blood-moving technique is by no means trivial. On the contrary, it is a technique that a martial artist at the third level dreams of doing.
After all, the true energy is there, but the medicinal soup is expensive.
It is extremely rare to be able to use true energy to push blood energy to strengthen the muscles, bones and skin.
"Xu Fangyan told me that this method can also be used when drinking medicine, which can maximize the power of the medicinal soup.
If I have enough medicinal soup, I can quickly reach the bone forging realm."
Zhao Sheng clenched his fists and muttered to himself.
After what happened to Xu Fangyan, Zhao Sheng became obsessed with becoming stronger.
There is no bottleneck for him in the realm of the third level, and he should make full use of this advantage.
"The Star Absorbing Technique and Longming Finger are the secret techniques that I have practiced the most. In the past two months, I have also learned a lot about the local secret technique of Thunder Fury Technique.
But the realm is not enough, and the power of the secret skills is not enough. It seems that I still can’t do it, and I have to spend money to buy medicine."
Zhao Sheng made up his mind and took out an iron box from the wall next to the bed.
"Two months ago, I went to Fangshi to sell medicine and made some money. In addition, I copied Xiao Pingzi, Xiao Fangzi's home, and a year's monthly salary, so I had a total of six hundred and thirty-eight taels.
The monthly salary for these two months is 5 taels of silver, and the red envelope given by General Manager Hai during the New Year is 5 taels, totaling 10 taels... It’s really hard to have no money.”
Zhao Sheng counted the money he had saved so hard and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
This money may not be enough to support him to reach the sixth level in a short time.
"You still have to make money!"
Zhao Sheng took out a big baggage from under the bed, which contained wrapped hemostatic powder and stasis-removing ointment!
In the past two months, he kept the residue of the medicinal soup he drank with Xiao Guizi every time.
They were all made into medicine bags by him.
Now, you can sell it.
Leaving one hundred taels of silver aside, he walked out of the room carrying 548 taels of silver and a large bag of medicine, and then went to the kitchen to pick up the meat and vegetables that had been packaged long ago.
Tonight, he is going to Fangshi.
Since Xu Fang severely suppressed the law, the entire Yulin Army has been investigated from top to bottom, and the corner of Zhenshun Gate under its jurisdiction is no exception.
As expected, the market there was seized, and the general responsible for patrolling the area was thrown into a sky jail awaiting trial.
But since ancient times, if there is a need, there will be a market.
The Royal Palace is no exception.
Just to the west of Chengtian Gate, further inside the gate, there is another market, exactly the same as before, under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Forest Army.
Zhao Sheng did not expect that the palace's military equipment was so lax.
How long has it been since the Dragon Assassination Case happened? The emperor is still recovering from his injuries, but the people below are doing this again?
Zhao Sheng felt sad about this... He was not the main one making money.
But tonight he is coming to make money.
In fact, he has been to this market several times, but to be on the safe side, he still sells the materials from the clan house honestly first.
After seeing that the market was fine, he had the evil idea of continuing to sell drugs.
The market was the same as the market over by Zhenshun Gate. Zhao Sheng found a place to sit down and set up a stall.
Today, Zongren Mansion sells a variety of ingredients, including fish, meat, and not-so-fresh bamboo shoots.
But having said that, bamboo shoots are in hot demand in the market, and soon a lot of people gathered.
Zhao Sheng took the opportunity to put out the medicine bag, but it was quickly robbed.
With nothing to sell, he went to the market and bought some medicinal materials with his money.
Both of them nourish blood and qi. Compared with skin resurfacing and tendon boiling, bone forging requires more medicinal materials and is more expensive!
Zhao Sheng almost spent all his money to buy the medicinal materials needed for five sets of medicine.
All in all, a set of medicine cost him one hundred taels!
It’s simply a money grab!
Zhao Sheng’s heart is bleeding.
A few days later, after drinking the five medicines and with the help of the blood removal method, he had forged a ten-percent skeleton.
But in the days that followed, he became a hard-working pharmaceutical worker.
Fortunately, both Zhixue Powder and Sanyu Ointment were easy to sell, and his medicine was very effective. After a month, he gradually became famous in the market.
One day, a man came to his stall, grabbed the last pack of medicine, and suddenly squatted down.
Chapter completed!
