034 The advantage of the era

"Let's have breakfast first..."

Ka Xiu glanced at the white petals on the ground, and then walked along the camphor road. A scent of fragrance drifted over from a distance.

On the north side of Citi Street, there are many breakfast shops on both sides of the street.

The cast iron door has been raised, and the breakfast shop owner and his helpers are making hot food. For example, barbecue sandwiches, oatmeal, sausages and bacon, etc. There are also some bakeries next to the breakfast shop that are also open, and customers are coming and going.

.

The air is filled with the fresh wheat aroma of bread.

Card Xiu's training in secret martial arts consumes a lot of physical strength, so he naturally has a big appetite. He ordered a bowl of cereal, three grilled sausages, and two barbecued vegetable sandwiches, and finished them in a few mouthfuls.

Next to a camphor tree, under scattered golden spots, Cardiff held a stack of newspapers in his left hand, which contained freshly baked fish and chips. In his right hand, he held a cup of scalding hot milk.

"It smells pretty good..." He glanced down at the golden fries, and when he was about to eat them, Cardiff suddenly realized.

It is best not to eat seafood until the wound has healed.

A little frustrated, but there was nothing he could do. He could only raise his head and drink the milk in one gulp, and then walked towards the pharmacy in the distance.

When passing by Purple Lake Park on the way, Cardiff put the fish and chips on a black bench. If the park cleaning staff had not cleaned them away, some homeless people would have taken them away.

"Ding ding ding..."

A series of crisp ringtones came from the front. It turned out to be a postman wearing a hood and riding a bicycle. He was wearing a striking blue uniform and the cross-body bag slung around his waist was also blue with green.

The slanted bag contains mail from afar.

"Dingle bell..." Card repair and the postman passed by.

Throughout the morning, he spent a total of 10,000 red Lebanese federal coins. This is really like a waste of money. Sure enough, martial arts training requires some assets at home. If you are a real poor person and have no financial support, I'm afraid

Neither can get started.

At 11:30 p.m., Cardiff walked back to Jessica's apartment with two large bags on his left and right shoulders. Each bag was bulging, almost the size of a child, and weighed about fifty pounds.

I really can't carry it back from such a long distance if I don't have any strength.

The door closed with a creak and Kaxiu put down two bags.

Boom! Boom!

He rolled up the bag and took out packages of medicinal materials wrapped in newspapers. A strong medicinal smell suddenly wafted through the room. Half an hour later, Ka Xiu straightened up from the ground.

On the right hand side is a large number of classified and bandaged medicine bags, each medicine bag represents the amount of medicine for a medicinal bath. On the left hand side is a pile of different medicinal materials, large and small.

That is used to make ointments and can be stored for a long time.

It is usually placed in a bottle so that people can carry it with them.

When it comes to exercise methods, medicated bathing once a day is of course the most effective, provided you have the money. Because medicated bathing will inevitably waste medicinal materials, and the amount of waste will cause physical pain.

The ointment is different. There is basically no waste, and it can be carried with you and stored in advance. The only disadvantage is probably that the exercise effect is poor. Which one you choose in the Wind Elephant Sect depends entirely on you.

The door usually only provides the monthly amount of ointment.

Of course, times are different now. The Hongli Federation seventy years ago is completely different from the Hongli Federation seventy years later.

With the rapid development of science and technology, many previously rare and precious medicinal materials have become ubiquitous. And with the revolutionary development of the transportation industry and means of transportation, the cost of medicinal material transportation has dropped significantly. The origin of medicinal materials has changed from one county to the entire Hongli Federation.

Even all the countries on the sailing route.

Ka Xiu glanced at the seventy or eighty packets of medicinal materials used for medicinal baths at his feet, and nodded with satisfaction. It was probably enough for three months.

Taking a medicinal bath once a day is something that the son of the master of the Fengxiang Sect doesn’t even dare to think about. After all, the raw materials for the medicinal medicine are indispensable, and its production volume is linked to the rarest medicinal materials. This medicinal material is called orchid heart grass, which used to be in Beiliu

There are only two production sites in the county.

And seventy years later, there is a province in the Star Blue Empire of Star Blue Rock Continent that is rich in this kind of medicinal herb. Ship after ship is transporting it to the Red Federation, and the price can be said to be cheap, not to say bad.

The price of bluegrass is even cheaper than other medicinal materials.

And this is the advantage of the times.

From 12 o'clock until 1:30 in the afternoon, Ka Xiu was working on the ointment needed for the secret technique of Elephant Soul. A strong smell of burning and medicine slowly floated up into the sky along the window.

Fortunately, he lives on the top floor of Jessica's apartment and there are no neighbors above, otherwise Cardiff would probably be reported.

The smell of the boiled medicine was so strong that he couldn't stand it.

"Not to mention three or four months, even half a year is enough." Ka Xiu placed two diamond-shaped glass bottles the size of a normal person's head in the cabinet, which were full of black ointment.

The ointment is not ready for use now and needs to be sealed and fermented for a week. Once it has a smell of river mud, it can be applied and used. At that time, Kaxiu will divide the two large bottles into many small bottles for emergency use. For the time being, put them in

here.

He quickly came to the living room, put all the medicinal materials into a big bag, and finally put the bag in a cool and dry place.

After doing this, Kaxiu went to take a cold shower.

Five minutes later, he glanced at his right forearm in front of the mirror. All the scabs from the wound on it had fallen off. Only a white line was left, which was freshly grown skin.

With the practice of secret martial arts, his healing ability seems to be much stronger than that of normal people, and at least minor injuries heal faster.

Dry yourself and put on clothes.

Pull the curtains to one side and tie them with black rope. The smell of medicine in the room is so strong that it will probably not dissipate in an afternoon.

When he opened the door, Ka Xiu picked up the black wide-brimmed hat on the coat rack, then turned the cold metal handle and walked out.

Go down the stairs and turn right and come to Xiangzhang Road. Some vendors are moving stalls and will come after dinner time.

Cardiff took a look at the buildings opposite. Most of them were gray-white buildings in the Victorian style. Above the dormer windows were gables, and the surfaces were decorated with carvings or lace outlines.

The walls are made of red bricks, with many angular carvings on the edges.

Along the way, the houses here are equipped with iron railings on the outside, and there is a metal decorative plate on the spandrel of the railing.

Inside are small trees decorated with colorful ribbons.

Naturally, the owners of these houses cannot be poor, nor are they wealthy businessmen like the Hudson family. They are middle-class, relatively well-off families, and the elite class with decent jobs.

At least in Shirakawa City, they are considered elites in various industries.

A carriage stopped casually on the side of the road, and Cardiff left Citi Street. About ten minutes later, he reached a platform at an intersection.

He paid the fare and got off the carriage.
