Extracting all things: My attributes grow infinitely.
Chapter 305: 7 taels is ginseng, 8 taels is treasure.
As dawn broke, a thin mist rose in the courtyard.
Jiang Chuan stood shirtless in the courtyard.
His whole body was steaming with heat, like smoke rising from his body.
Sweat poured down like pillars.
They all accumulated into a puddle at our feet.
He kept switching between the pile drivers, and his breathing became longer and longer.
After a while, the meditation ended.
Jiang Chuan put away the stakes and let out a long breath.
He glanced at the panel.
[Qi and Blood: 22 (30)]
[Technique: Nine Breaths Breathing Technique (Mastered, Proficiency 336/5000)]
……
I've lost a lot of energy and blood.
In return, he progressed from a minor master to a proficient master of the Nine Breaths Breathing Technique.
He can now exhale six times in a row, and he is only one step away from achieving perfection.
As his cultivation technique progressed, his physical abilities also improved considerably.
toughness,
endurance,
Both have seen significant improvements.
Jiang Chuan gradually figured out the tricks of the trade.
The martial arts techniques in this world, whether they are health-preserving techniques like the "Nine Breaths Breathing Technique" or more powerful physical training techniques.
In fact, the paths to spiritual practice are all the same.
All of these come at the cost of depleting one's vital energy and blood.
To exchange for advancement in cultivation techniques.
The more abundant one's Qi and blood, the faster one can progress in practicing the techniques.
Therefore, cultivation does not actually place much emphasis on martial arts talent.
As long as one's basic Qi and blood are high enough, one can progress rapidly in cultivation techniques.
What others work hard for a year, he can catch up in ten days.
This can also be considered a kind of unorthodox cultivation method.
But the reasoning is simple.
But very few people can actually do it.
After all, not everyone possesses such an incredible cheat code as extracting everything.
Moreover, there are some drawbacks to practicing in this way.
It's just too draining on your energy and blood.
This training session consumed a full 8 points of Qi and Blood. How long would it take an ordinary martial artist to accumulate 8 points of Qi and Blood through arduous training?
Supplementing solely through food.
He did the math.
They would probably have to eat four or five hundred pounds of food, and it would have to be all high-quality meat!
Jiang Chuan couldn't help but reminisce about the precious ginseng he had eaten before.
Once you eat that ginseng, your qi and blood will immediately surge forth. Why would you need to be so careful with your cultivation?
I wish I could get more of that stuff...
The courtyard gate creaked open, and Liu Yue'e returned.
She looked somewhat uneasy, and after entering the room, she glanced back at the outside twice.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Chuan immediately asked.
Liu Yue'e said worriedly, "On my way back, I came across a murder case. I heard that the couple in that courtyard were both killed, and their deaths were extremely gruesome. It's just a few streets away from our house..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan didn't react much; he assumed it was someone from the Wang family stalking Liu Yue'e again.
It's just a murder case.
It's not like the sky is falling.
Besides, this kind of thing is not his business; the officials will handle it.
He comforted him, saying, "It's alright, we're moving to Quanning City soon, the security there will definitely be better."
Liu Yue'e's expression calmed down slightly.
Then, she brought back another piece of good news.
"The travel permit has been issued!"
"The problem was that we needed a local resident of Quanning City to act as a guarantor and introduce us to the city for residency.
"Coincidentally, a caravan from Quanning City just arrived in the county. I spent some money, and the caravan leader has agreed to act as guarantor for us."
"The caravan will return to Quanning City early tomorrow morning, and then we can go with them."
After hearing this, Jiang Chuan felt much more at ease.
Finally, it's time to leave this place.
This path was not easy to obtain.
For someone like him, who is unemployed, there are simply too many rules to follow if he wants to change his household registration.
First, we need to check whether the taxes have been paid in full.
Does the individual have a prior criminal record?
If there is any land, it must be handed over and sold in its entirety.
Then, a respected local gentry must be found to act as guarantor.
Moreover, once they arrive in the new place, they will have to find a local to sponsor their citizenship application.
Only after going through all of this can the entire process of relocating one's household registration be considered complete.
If even one step in the process goes wrong, it won't work.
Therefore, these days, it is very difficult for ordinary people without power or influence to move.
It's common for many people to never leave their hometown in their entire lives.
If it weren't for his unexpected windfall...
With the meager income from hunting, they would be stuck just finding a guarantor in the local area.
Jiang Chuan checked the road signs and confirmed that everything was correct, finally putting his mind at ease.
That being the case.
He can now prepare to do the second thing.
……
Jiang Chuan disguised himself and then left home.
He first went to a pharmacy in the city.
After entering.
Jiang Chuan then got straight to the point and asked, "Do you have any medicinal herbs that can replenish qi and blood? Price is not an issue."
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper knew that Jiang Chuan was a wealthy and powerful man, and quickly led him into the inner room.
He took out a mahogany box.
The box was opened.
There was a ginseng root lying inside.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Please take a look, sir. This is wild ginseng from the north, a top-grade product for replenishing qi and blood. My Baicaotang is the only shop in the entire Zhang County that has it!"
Jiang Chuan frowned after just one glance.
You dare to show this to people in such poor condition?
The ginseng in front of me is all wrinkled and crumpled.
It's not even as long as my little finger.
Compared to the precious ginseng he had eaten, it was utter garbage.
He patiently asked, "How much is this ginseng?"
"Two hundred taels."
Jiang Chuan's lips twitched instantly.
He hunted a wild boar and sold it for only three taels of silver.
He would have to hunt sixty or seventy wild boars to earn back the price of this one ginseng!
Jiang Chuan didn't rush to take out his money. He frowned, a hint of disdain in his eyes, and continued to ask, "Isn't there anything better than this?"
The shopkeeper quickly waved his hand.
"Sir, you're putting me in a difficult position. Ginseng has always been a medicinal herb controlled by the imperial court, and I can't get my hands on even the best quality."
"Besides..."
He hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice, and then tentatively spoke:
Wild ginseng is already a rare commodity, and aged ginseng is even rarer.
"For every half tael of weight, the price will double."
"I wonder, sir..."
Jiang Chuan understood his implied meaning and immediately took out a thousand-tael silver note and slammed it on the table.
"I've said it before, money is not a problem."
The shopkeeper immediately beamed with joy.
He got up, closed the door, and furtively took out a wooden box.
Upon opening, a high-quality old ginseng root was revealed inside.
The ginseng rootlets are complete, and the rhizome is plump.
It's obviously quite old.
The rich aroma of the medicine filled the air, and Jiang Chuan suddenly felt his blood and qi stirring. His eyes lit up; the quality of this ginseng was indeed good, only slightly inferior to the one he had eaten before.
"How much is this ginseng?"
He asked.
The shopkeeper held up one finger: "Sir, please don't think it's expensive. This ginseng is hard to come by, and this price is already very cheap."
Without uttering a single word, Jiang Chuan directly pushed the thousand-tael silver note over.
Transaction.
Although it hurts a little, money is something you earn to spend.
Money that can't be spent is no different from waste paper.
Before leaving.
Jiang Chuan asked casually.
"If there were a ginseng root of even better quality, how much would it be worth?"
The innkeeper smiled and replied, "Sir, you are unaware of the situation."
"Seven ounces is considered ginseng, and eight ounces is considered treasure."
"This seven-ounce ginseng I have is already considered top-grade. If it were of even better quality, it would be a treasure!"
"A single ginseng root can easily cost three to five thousand taels of silver."
"Moreover, it was under the absolute control of the imperial court. Both buyers and sellers had to register their information and then submit it to the government for verification."
"Ordinary people can't buy it even if they have money."
Jiang Chuan was secretly alarmed after hearing this.
Good guy.
It turns out that the ginseng he ate whole was so valuable!
Even in Quanning City, the capital of Dongshan Road, a house would only cost a few thousand taels.
That bite of his.
That's equivalent to eating up an apartment in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, or Shenzhen!
