After sending Bai Su off, Zhou Qiang returned to his room alone. He lay on the soft bed and panted heavily like a dog. Just now, he had run back and forth to the third floor a few times. His thighs were weak and his calves were cramping. His thin body was already unable to do so. Thinking about how he could easily sprint tens of thousands of meters without feeling tired before he transmigrated, and looking at his body that was as thin as a chicken now, the strong difference stimulated his determination to train!
After a short rest, Zhou Qiang forced himself to start working. He first cleaned the entire room inside and out, and checked any suspicious places carefully to make sure there were no bugs or surveillance devices.
This was purely a habit that he had developed in his previous life. Firstly, he loved cleanliness, and he was even a bit of a clean freak. He would never sweat profusely and have sex with a woman after training.
Secondly, he was more careful. Although he did not join the Human Cultivator Alliance in his previous life, he knew a little about the grudges between the Cultivation tribes and the Special Abilities Alliance. No matter which hotel he went to, the first thing he did was to check all the rooms carefully and refuse to be plotted against!
After doing all this, another two hours had passed. Zhou Qiang, who felt a little hungry, made a packet of instant noodles and made do with it. Then, he left his residence and began his shopping journey.
He had already planned this last night, including the items he would purchase.
He first went to a fitness equipment store and walked around to familiarize himself with the fitness equipment commonly used in modern society. Then, he ordered two sets of dumbbells, two arm strength machines, and many ordinary equipment in one go. He couldn't afford too much. He had a total of 10,000 yuan on him. Uh, right, it was 20,000 yuan. When he took out his credit card, Zhou Qiang realized that his mother, Bai Su, had stuffed another credit card into his pocket. It was the 10,000 yuan that she had rejected last night.
This warmed his heart again.
All the fitness equipment cost him more than 3,000 yuan in total. After following the deliveryman to transport the things back, Zhou Qiang took a taxi straight to the Fanhai Medicinal Herbs wholesale market. This was his highlight.
It was not as simple as a pharmacist randomly picking a few herbs and putting them together, especially the high-efficiency medicine that Zhou Qiang needed. Not only was it precious, but it had to be high-quality. Only then could the efficacy be guaranteed.
Zhou Qiang took an hour to walk around the entire street of medicinal herbs wholesale market. The results were quite satisfactory. The various medicinal herbs now were more abundant compared to 300 years later. Even many precious medicinal herbs that were ten times more precious than gold before transmigration were much cheaper now.
What was especially worth mentioning was that Zhou Qiang even found a medicinal herb called 'Civet Fragrance' in a shop called Rare Medicinal Herbs Monopoly Shop. This rare medicinal herb was secreted by big, small, and large-spotted Civets. Due to the extinction of the species, it was already difficult to obtain in Zhou Qiang's previous life. This Civet Fragrance could more than double the efficacy of the body-strengthening potion that Zhou Qiang made!
Needless to say, Zhou Qiang bought all the civet cat incense in this shop in one go. He spent a total of 9,800 yuan, and it was only the size of a fist.
It was said that there was no need to panic when there was food at home. Now, Zhou Qiang, who was short of money, could no longer be generous. He spent two hours bargaining with the small merchants and hawkers. He even sold his body in an old woman's shop to seduce them. He spent nearly 5,000 yuan and finally bought all the medicinal herbs that could last for almost ten days. These were all necessary items for making body-strengthening potions.
After all this trouble, Zhou Qiang, who was originally a 20,000-yuan household, had less than 2,000 yuan left on his card. At first, he walked around with his chest puffed out like a rich man. Now, he couldn't do it anymore. He packed all the medicinal herbs and carried them on his shoulder. He also spent 1,800 yuan to buy some necessary tools for brewing medicine, such as a charcoal furnace and a magnetic furnace for brewing herbs. After that, he completely returned to his former self. All of his money added up was less than 200 yuan!
He hailed a cab and returned to his residence. Zhou Qiang, who looked well-dressed, had completely become a pauper. All the money he had added up to only 138 dayuan!
"It's really difficult for a hero to win with just a penny. Back then, I, Zhou Qiang, was considered a rich man. Now, I'm carrying a broken bag like a refugee!”
Zhou Qiang mumbled as he panted as he climbed the stairs. In the past, he was a human body trainer. There were many rich women and sisters around him. Those were all people who spent a lot of money. They were willing to spend money for the sake of their bodies and looks. He did not let go of people and money. He was strong with both hands. He did not lack money!
After climbing to the third floor with great difficulty, Zhou Qiang did not even have the strength to put down the bag full of medicine on his back. He fumbled out the key from his pocket and trembled for a long time, but he could not insert it into the keyhole of the security door.
"Squeak ~!"
The door of another house behind him suddenly opened. The person who came out seemed to be shocked and let out a soft cry.
Before Zhou Qiang could turn around and greet his future neighbor, a gentle female voice sounded behind him."Uncle, I still have some expired newspapers here. You can take them later. It's free!”
Uncle? Zhou Qiang was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized that the other party was not talking to him!
However, there seemed to be no one else in the corridor besides him?
"Uncle, what's wrong? There's no one in this house. It's been empty for a few days. It seems that a new tenant might move in today…"
The sweet and delicate voice sounded again. Zhou Qiang finally understood that this uncle was calling him!
This guy is on fire, uncle? I, Zhou Qiang, am only in my early twenties today. I'm at the age of a flower. How did I become an uncle? Did this girl have crystallites and a high degree of nearsightedness?
He had wanted to give this girl who had no eyes a good lesson on ideology and politics, but when he turned around, the anger in his heart instantly disappeared, and what followed was surprise and amazement!
What a beautiful girl!
That delicate face that resembled a female lead in a comic book, a pair of big eyes with long eyelashes, a small but high nose bridge, and two small lips that curled up into a slightly shy smile…
The girl looked to be around 20 years old. She had a ponytail and a petite body, giving off a soft and weak feeling. She was wearing a large beige cartoon T-shirt, revealing her fair and straight calves.
Her pure smile that almost did not contain any impurities instantly tore apart all of Zhou Qiang's anger. After a short moment of surprise and amazement, it was followed by a bone-chilling pain.
The innocent smile on her face looked just like Zhou Qiang's ex-wife, Guan Tong!
However, Zhou Qiang knew that this girl was not his Guan Tong. He also knew that in this life, he would never have a perfect woman like his wife, Guan Tong.
"Uh, I'm sorry. I'm off today, so I won't be collecting junk for the time being!”
