After enjoying a round of health care, Liang Chuan knew that this stuff was addictive, so he didn't dare to be greedy. Once people fell into a honeypot, most people would end up drowning in it. He asked several girls to find someone to practice or practice with each other, so that he would not be the training partner.

Zheng Ruoying also experienced it. Not to mention, the feeling was really unlike anything she had ever experienced before. As soon as her body was massaged, she felt invigorated and her whole body felt less depressed. Her face was flushed and her complexion was bright. My appearance is much better than before the application, and I can only describe it as radiant.

She didn't go anywhere these days, she just stayed at home and enjoyed the five girls' experiments in turn. With constant practice, the five girls were no longer restrained and served the master to get what they needed. Everyone was free and bold. Try it, the techniques will get better and better, and the beauty effects will become more and more obvious.

Zheng Ruoying's face looked rosy every day, and even Shen Yuzhen noticed that she was different. Animals like women are indeed born to respond to the beauty of their own kind.

Liang Chuan was miserable. He was now thinking about formulating several secret recipes from the beauty and health club.

The monsoon has begun to bring the taste of the southeastern sea. In the following days, ocean-going ships will also bring boatloads of exotic treasures to Qingyuan. At that time, Qingyuan was most prosperous. time.

At the moment, I can only search to see if there are any in stock. The medicine in this formula is not a rare treasure that is extremely difficult to find. For example, motherwort can be found in most places where grass can grow on the land of China, including grassland and mountains. It can be seen everywhere on the field ridges and is an important medicine used by doctors in the past dynasties to treat gynecological diseases.

Liang Chuan walked alone to West Street, which is the store of Qingyuan Port. There are countless gold brocades, spices, pearl jewelry, swords, jade, mahogany, bamboo cloth, tea, porcelain, finished satin, raw silk, embroidery and other products on the street. The ginger shop, yarn shop, cattle shop, horse shop, fruit shop , fish shop, rice shop, meat shop, pig shop, cloth shop, mansion shop, stacking yard, tea house, hotel, gold and silver shop, colored silk shop, dye shop, bead shop, incense shop, shoe shop and countless shops Row upon row.

Flags are hung on the shops on West Street to attract business. There is an endless stream of pedestrians in the market, including merchants, gentry, officials and vendors, family members riding in sedans, traveling monks carrying baskets on their backs, foreign tourists asking for directions, and alleys filled with books and stories. Children, there are children from wealthy families who are drinking heavily in restaurants, there are disabled old people begging on the edge of the city, men, women, old and young, farmers, industry and commerce, all kinds of people are prepared for everything.

It is said that this is not the most lively scene in Qingyuan. In May and June, when the sea ships return from the wind, it will be difficult to stroll around this street. Women are afraid that they will become pregnant in the sea of ​​​​people, and businessmen from all over the world are pouring in. , I looked around and saw people everywhere, busy purchasing and shipping goods. No one wanted to miss the golden business period that they had been waiting for for a year.

For businessmen, this period is actually the end of their business year. Not much of the goods they previously stocked can be sold, and new goods will not arrive for another month or two. The warehouses are empty, and there is no way to grab the market in advance.

Liang Chuan looked at the drug stores and walked inside. These drug stores were filled with an alluring aroma of medicines, Chinese medicine and various animal medicinal materials. People who like the smell of Chinese medicine and various animal medicinal materials will feel comfortable when they enter the store. People who don't like it will smell this smell. Immediately nauseating.

There are many drug stores on West Street. The stores not only sell medicine but also have doctors sitting in the hall. It is relatively rare to see a doctor walking around in Qingyuan. When people are sick, they go to the store to see a doctor to take a pulse, and then the store will prescribe two medicines. The side medicines work together. There are also pharmacies that do not deal with medical treatment and only focus on selling medicinal materials.

Liang Chuan looked at four or five pharmacies. They were all of good size. When he entered the store, he saw that there were not many people buying medicines. However, in the early spring, there was an endless stream of patients with typhoid fever and the like. The store was too busy just to treat these diseases. , there are not many businessmen buying medicine.

Liang Chuan wanted to buy motherwort, which had to be the whole plant instead of just the stem or leaves, and talcum powder. The amount of talcum powder used is relatively large, and both recipes require talc powder. Secondly, there are antler glue, peach kernels, almonds, Angelica dahurica, Baitian, Atractylodes, Atractylodes, White Poria, agarwood, soap locust, musk, and dried branches of Tribulus terrestris.

Musk is extremely valuable, because there were no artificially bred deer musk deer in ancient times. They were all purely wild. The male sachet costs only about three yuan at most. It is really precious and rare. Deer antler glue is also a good medicine that is extremely difficult to find, but it is rare in the south. There are more deer than in the north. The source of deer glue can only be brought by sea ships from the north, or transported thousands of miles by merchants on land.

Most medicinal materials are easy to buy, but Liang Chuan couldn't find these expensive ones after asking several stores. These medicines are basically sold out as soon as they arrive in the store. It is impossible that they have not been sold after a year of waiting for the sea cargo to arrive again.

As long as one of these three prescriptions is missing, Liang Chuan can't guarantee that the medicine will achieve the effect of whitening and beautifying the skin. There are still several medicines that are not even visible, and Liang Chuan feels like he can't even visit the drug stores in the West Street area. It was almost done. Seeing that the sun was getting lower and lower, and another day of shopping had passed, Liang Chuan walked to the Guandi Temple and couldn't help but hesitate a little.

I finally came up with an idea to arouse Zheng Ruoying. If I tell her now that I'm sorry that I can't come up with the recipe, the store will have to close and send the five solar terms girls away. Zheng Ruoying can't. Even when Liang Chuan chased him with a knife, he felt that Zheng Ruoying was showing mercy.

The incense in Guandi Temple is not as thick as smoke, and the statue of Guan Gong has not been blackened by incense candles. He quietly looks at the white clouds and dogs, and looks at Liang Chuan who is sitting on the stone steps in front of the door with his head downcast.

At this time, a young man came over and gently patted Liang Chuan on the back, which shocked Liang Chuan.

Liang Chuan looked up and saw a young man who looked familiar, but couldn't remember his name. Anyway, he had seen him before. Liang Chuan sighed in his heart, why was his memory getting worse and worse? Could it really be true? After that sentence, if the limbs are developed, the mind will be simple?

Liang Chuan looked up and asked in surprise: "Are you...?"

There was a sheep-like look in the young man's eyes, but he hid it very well with a harmless smile. He politely said to Liang Chuan: "Brother, you don't look like a local. Are you in trouble?"

Liang Chuan smiled bitterly and said, "No, I came to buy some medicine because I have a headache when I can't find the seller."

The young man said: "Hey, is it possible that someone in the family is sick and needs to find a prescription? Although it is a matter of life and death, from my point of view it is a piece of cake. I am familiar with Qingyuan. What should I buy? I said, I can find it for you even with my eyes closed!"

When Liang Chuan heard this, he was overjoyed and jumped up from the stone steps. He looked at the young man like a savior and said, "Brother, I have a kind face and a good heart. Brother, I have met a good person."

"But it's hard to be a good person." The young man tilted his head to the side and kept rubbing his fingers. Liang Chuan's eyelids jumped as he saw that he was asking for money.

Liang Chuan gritted his teeth. It was not too much for someone who relied on physical strength to make a living. He deserved some money, so he asked, "Brother, give me a price."

The young man said categorically: "It's always money, no counter-offering."

Liang Chuan took out a small piece of silver from his arms, one tael more than enough. Copper coins were too heavy to carry around, and he had always disliked them. He put the money into the young man's hand and said with a smile: "Thank you, little brother."

The young man weighed the silver and his eyes lit up. By some trick, the silver actually disappeared in his hand. He smiled politely and said, "Follow me."

He led Liang Chuan to the west gate. This store was also in a small alley. When he passed by, there were several shops that were burned to the sky. The alley looked a bit more gorgeous than Chengtian Alley, with high walls and deep courtyards. The clothes also exuded a bit of nobility.

"Well, this is a medicine shop. If you can't buy it here, then you don't need to look for it in Qingyuan. I promise you with confidence that there is absolutely no second shop where you can find the medicine you want." The young man took Liang Chuan to him and turned around to leave, muttering: "The cat has not been sold to earn some sips of wine to moisten his throat."

cat? Liang Chuan looked at this young man, his brain seemed to be shocked, and then he remembered, yes, this is not the boy who sells cats at a stall near Guandi Temple!

Oops, a feeling of eating something extremely expensive spread in Liang Chuan's heart.

Liang Chuan cursed in his heart, damn, if I can't buy what I want in this store, I will smash your stall tomorrow. You dare to cheat me out of my money, you are so brave.

This drug store looks quite open, and even the plaque is covered with a ring of brass. The words "Zhuang's Drug Store" are eye-catching, but if you look closely, you can see that there is a layer of old dust on the ground, exuding a dilapidated atmosphere. breath. The roof of the burned-out room next to the house was also burned through. This sight made Liang Chuan feel anxious, fearing that he would not be able to buy the medicine here.

Liang Chuan walked in. There was only one young man in the store. He was quite fair, but a little short. Compared with Liang Chuan, he looked like Wu Song or Wu Dalang.

When the man saw the visitor, he weakly greeted him: "Are you here to see a doctor or to get medicine?"

Liang Chuan glanced around. The shop was empty. He had just passed a few shops. There were people in shops smaller than this looking for medical advice. Here was a half-dead young man who was reluctantly entertaining him. , something is wrong here, why does this store feel like there is something wrong?

He was suspicious, but Liang Chuan still asked: "Do you have the whole motherwort here, as well as deer gum, musk, and agarwood?"
