return from cultivation

Chapter 15
For a piece of suet jade wrench, 100 million is already a very high price.However, Zhan Wenbai has an intuition that if he sells this finger for 100 million, he will regret it for the rest of his life!

So he gritted his teeth, then shook his head and refused.

Tang Zhenzhong was very disappointed and couldn't help looking up at Suhang, like a child who didn't grab candy.Suhang immediately felt it was funny, so he said, "Your jade plaque is much better than his, so don't be too greedy. Besides, I will come to do the engraving on weekends."

As soon as these words came out, Tang Zhenzhong immediately became happy.Compared with those finished products, he values ​​the process of carving more.If you can learn the carving techniques of Suzhou and Hangzhou, what can't be carved?
Suhang asked Tang Zhenzhong for another piece of jade and asked the price.The old man was in a good mood, and said righteously: "Master, a jade plaque can make the old man live for decades, what is a mere stone?"

No matter what Suhang said, he was unwilling to accept the money, but he made an additional request: "My granddaughter's birthday is the day after tomorrow, and I plan to invite some familiar people to participate. I wonder if the master has time to honor the attendance? By the way, my The granddaughter is an alumnus of the same university as the master."

If it was changed to the day before, Suhang must have refused decisively.But now, he really can't say such words.The so-called cannibalism is soft, and the hand is short. How can you be ungrateful if you just got the kindness of others.Thinking about the day after tomorrow, there was really nothing to do, so he nodded and agreed.

Tang Zhenzhong was very happy about this, as if Suhang would be very honorable if he was willing to attend the birthday party.Listening to Tang Zhenzhong explaining the venue and time of the birthday party in detail, Zhan Wenbo felt sour and said, "Uncle Tang, anyway, I watched Jiayi grow up, why didn't you invite me?"

Tang Zhenzhong turned his head and glared at him, and said, "What's the trouble, why don't you come to Jiayi's birthday, do you need me to tell? I think you are deliberately finding fault, you need to deal with it!"

Zhan Wenbai gave a dry laugh and quickly gave up.

When the two were talking, Su Hang was still busy with the matter at hand.

He first divided the piece of jade into dozens of parts with a large carving knife, and then began to polish it with a small carving knife.

Although it is a carving knife, in his hands, it is smoother than a grinding machine.After a series of afterimages, a crystal clear jade needle took shape.Although it looks very simple, and there are no special decorative patterns, but when you look at it, it feels aura.Especially the needle, it seems that there is a burst of green energy that is about to pierce out!
Moreover, this needle was as thin as a cow's hair, which stunned Tang Zhenzhong and Zhan Wenbai. It was unimaginable that such fine jade needles could be made by hand.

Soon after, dozens of jade needles were finished.Although the quality of the jade is not good, Suhang himself is very satisfied with being able to polish it into this look.

Tang Zhenzhong carefully picked up a jade needle, and wanted to touch the tip of the needle with his hand, but before he touched it, he felt the illusion that his skin was about to be pierced.He was amazed at the sharpness of the jade needles, how could he understand that each jade needle was carefully crafted by Suhang along the direction of aura.It can be said that these dozens of jade needles are dozens of tubes of spiritual energy!
Zhan Wenbai looked at it curiously, and asked, "What is Master doing with this thing?"

Suhang replied: "It is used for acupuncture."

"Acupuncture?" Zhan Wenbai was surprised, he had never heard of acupuncture using jade needles.

And this is why Su Hang has the confidence to open a private clinic. Acupuncture and moxibustion relying on spiritual energy is far more effective than ordinary metal needles.No matter how serious the disease is, as long as the right medicine is prescribed, and then the spiritual energy penetrates into the focus of the disease, the natural medicine will cure the disease.

After wrapping up these dozens of jade needles with cotton cloth and putting them in his pocket, Su Hang offered to leave.At this time, Tang Zhenzhong called the manager and took 2 yuan as a reward.

Suhang shook his head, he carved it specially to repay favors, and Tang Zhenzhong also confiscated the jade used for those jade needles, so how could he have the nerve to ask for payment?
But Tang Zhenzhong said: "One yard is equal to one yard. It is a good thing to help the master, but the gift given by the master is too expensive. Compared with this mere 2 yuan, it is far inferior. If the master gets paid, Wen Bai and I accept the gift from Master with peace of mind, but if you don't take it..."

He gritted his teeth, and suddenly made a gesture to take off the jade tablet that was already hanging around his waist: "Then, I'd better return this gift to Master!"

Seeing him like this, Suhang had no choice but to accept the money.I originally planned to return the gift, but I didn't expect that the more I owed, the more favor I owed.And this is Tang Zhenzhong's real purpose.

If Su Hang took the money, then this carving is just a normal fair trade.But if you don't take it, it means that Suhang has returned all the previous favors.Although Tang Zhenzhong is a master jade carver, he is mature and skilled.Naturally, he understands that for a person like Su Hang, a favor he owes is far more important than 2 yuan.

Tang's jade carvings have always been relying on him to support the facade, and the few apprentices they have taken in are either independent or not good at learning, and they are now facing a stage of failure.As he got older and his sculptures gradually decreased, the business of the shop also declined.The jade carving industry, which accounts for most of Tang's profits, has suffered a blow, which is not good news for the entire group.

The appearance of Suhang is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the worried Tang Zhenzhong.If this young man can be tied down, then in the next few decades, Tang's jade carving will become the best in the world!
Later, Tang Zhenzhong sent Su Hang to the door in person, not forgetting to tell him about the birthday party.Suhang nodded in agreement, then took his leave and left.

With an extra 2 yuan in his pocket, when he passed by a Chinese medicine store, Suhang suddenly felt moved.Now that I have spare money, I might as well buy some medicinal materials first, try to treat leukemia for Yanyan, and test the effect of jade needles.

Do whatever you want, he walked into the Chinese medicine store and directly asked to check all the Chinese medicinal materials.Because the prescriptions in the cultivation world are different from those here, if you want to treat leukemia, you must first figure out the nature of the medicine, so that you can prescribe the right medicine.With Suhang's ability, it is not difficult to identify the nature of the medicine, but this requirement is really a bit strange.

The clerk originally disagreed, but after taking out 500 yuan in Suzhou and Hangzhou, no one objected to the strange request.

From the medicine cabinet, grab every kind of traditional Chinese medicine and look at it.Su Hang, who has experience in alchemy, can tell the medicinal properties of these common Chinese medicinal materials at a glance.After all, alchemy requires spiritual stones, spiritual fire, and elixir, each of which is infinitely more complicated than these medicinal materials.And the process of alchemy is not comparable to that of traditional Chinese medicine stew.

Today's Suzhou and Hangzhou are like using the professor's sea of ​​knowledge to help people solve the problems of the second grade of elementary school.

After looking through all the hundreds of cabinets, Su Hang stood in front of the counter, meditating silently.With a powerful calculation ability in his heart, he screened and combined the medicinal materials over and over again, trying to find the best prescription in this way.

The salesman looked at the strange young man in front of him, feeling a little puzzled.What is this quirk?Running over to pay a few hundred yuan just to look at the medicinal materials?Could it be the Food and Drug Administration or a reporter?

Just in case, the salesperson immediately called the store manager.Coincidentally, Mr. Song Lao, the chief Chinese medicine doctor of this well-known Chinese medicine shop in the city and even in the whole province, is also here.Hearing that a young man came to see the medicinal materials, Elder Song also wanted to know what the other party was doing.If it's really the Food and Drug Administration or a reporter, he doesn't mind scolding the other party.

The ancestors of the Song family were imperial physicians in the former dynasty. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, they even treated many national and ministerial officials. They have an arrogance that ordinary people don't have.Let alone a mere young man, even if the mayor came, he would dare to point his nose and scold him.

Walking out of the back room, Mr. Song really saw a young man standing in front of the counter with his eyes closed, looking like he was sleeping?
He didn't get angry, but walked over and asked, "Young man, do you know if there is something wrong with the medicinal materials in our shop?"

Su Hang's whole mind was immersed in calculations, so he had no time to pay attention to him.Mr. Song asked several times, but couldn't respond. The store manager next to him couldn't help but get angry.Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Song Lao.The old man made up his mind to see what kind of tricks this monkey cub was playing!
The so-called enemy does not move, I do not move, braking with stillness is the best policy.

After a long time, Su Hang opened his eyes.He had already figured out the final prescription, so he looked up at the salesperson, and kept spitting out the names and quantities of the medicinal materials one by one.

Mr. Song made a show, signaling for someone to get medicine. The salesman understood, opened the medicine cabinet quickly, and grabbed out the things Suhang wanted one by one.

Suzhou and Hangzhou want a lot of things, and they are also very complicated, poisonous and non-toxic, everything that one expects to find.And the amount is quite a lot. Added together, it may weigh hundreds of catties.

Elder Song was a little puzzled, what exactly is this young man doing?He couldn't bear it anymore, and asked again: "Why are you grabbing so much medicine?"

Suhang was talking about the name of the medicine, and when someone asked him about it, he said casually: "Cure leukemia."

After hearing this, the store manager next to him was slightly taken aback, then couldn't help laughing, and said: "You are young, but you can talk big. Is leukemia so curable?"

Elder Song also shook his head, feeling that he came here for nothing.Although Chinese medicine claims to be able to cure any disease, there are some that they are helpless.A terminal illness like this comes from the most fundamental part of the body and is the most difficult to treat.

Especially for leukemia patients in the middle and advanced stages, Mr. Song has been practicing medicine for so many years, but he dare not say that he is 100% sure.Judging by the appearance of this young man, he seems to be very confident. He should be just an early stage patient.But he looked at the medicinal materials just now, and closed his eyes for a long time. Could it be that he was thinking about the prescription on the spot?
How is it possible... Elder Song laughed, stopped looking, turned and left.

On the contrary, the store manager is more careful. Seeing that Suhang caught a lot of medicines, he asked the sales staff to memorize each one clearly.The type, weight, and record.In case something happens in the future, it is better to have evidence.

Suhang didn't think too much about it, he just came to get what he needed according to the calculated prescription.These medicines seem to be many, but in fact they can only be used for less than a month.
