Chapter 1883: Chapter 889: Delivering Medicine, Small Bracelet_2

Looking at those clearly well-worn copper balls that the old man had been turning for who knows how long, Yan Fei squatted down: “It’s not right to break your stuff, let me show you a One-Finger Zen.”

With a poke, he drove his finger into the red brick beneath him.

Standing up, he clapped his hands: “How’s that?”

“Is there really such Kung Fu?” the old man said, astonished.

While not frequently in touch, they were old acquaintances, and there was also Teacher He’s connection, so the old man was quite at ease. He squatted down and compared his finger in that little hole for quite a while, like a child.

Thus, he began to have a lengthy discussion with Yan Fei about Kung Fu, from the level of Iron Palm Technique of a certain army’s soldier king he knew, to the brave heroes he’d seen on the battlefield in his youth, he spoke with great enjoyment.

The old man had a lot of traditional theories, and now with advanced technology, even though he specialized in Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor, he was exposed to a lot of new science, and new theories were something he could easily surpass Yan Fei in. But when it came to practical Kung Fu, Yan Fei, at his monster-level, was miles beyond him.

So the old man brought out some theories and asked Yan Fei to try to simulate and verify them.

Waiting outside, Meng Si’an was getting really anxious and couldn’t help but come in to see. Xu Xiaoyan was idly looking at the antiques collected by the old man, while the older and younger ones were still debating whether Tai Chi or Xinyi was more powerful.

“Grandfather, it’s already noon, do you want to keep Yan Fei here for lunch?” Meng Si’an, after listening for a while, realized he was being ignored and couldn’t help but ask.

The old man, in high spirits from the conversation, glared: “Can’t you see I’m in the middle of a discussion with Yan, you wait.”

Yan Fei had no interest in continuing the conversation as it seemed the old man usually didn’t have anyone to discuss with and probably lacked such a monster-level simulator like himself, which made him enthusiastic. But seeing his wife bored out of her mind and almost falling asleep, he really didn’t want to continue.

Quickly grabbing his package of bottles: “Old man, these are the medicines I made. They’re all bottled up, one bottle lasts a month. How much do you think they should sell for?”

“A month, huh?” The old man, still caught up in the previous enthusiasm, casually said. “With such good medicine, it should be at least 300,000 yuan a bottle! Let’s make it 300,000, anyway, there’s so little of it that it’s destined to be a non-widespread resource.”

“Alright then, whatever the price, I’ll leave it all to you.” Yan Fei didn’t say much; price wasn’t a concern for him.

The old man waved his hand: “Xiao An, you count the number of bottles and later give the money to Xiao Fei, as he needs it for business cash flow. Come on Xiao Fei, let’s verify the Half-Step Collapse Fist again…”

Yan Fei refused to try: “There’s nothing comparable, I’m naturally strong, even if I didn’t practice Kung Fu, there wouldn’t be many who could beat me, right?”

“True.” The old man nodded. “Youth should be feared in martial arts, especially for someone with your natural strength. By the way, have you ever considered getting a few gold medals for fun? This year’s games in Australia, why don’t you give it a shot?”

“No thanks, I’d rather lead my fellow villagers to prosperity!” Yan Fei quickly declined, as he wasn’t alone in saying this, but he really didn’t want to bully ordinary people!

The two casually chatted, while Meng Si’an counted the bottles and reported the number to the old man, who then wrote him a note.

Yan Fei took the chance to say goodbye: “I’ll leave with Xiao An now, his restaurant opens tomorrow, so I’m going for a preview.”

“Fine.” The old man also didn’t insist on keeping them. “The food here probably doesn’t suit you youngsters, go have fun. Remember to come back and visit when you have time, I have some artery theories I’d like to verify…”

He found a subject with natural strength to experiment with!

Yan Fei hurriedly pulled his wife, ready to leave; he had no intention of being a test subject at leisure!

Upon seeing Xu Xiaoyan, the old man seemed a bit embarrassed: “I had your girlfriend idling here all morning, let me give her a little gift!”

“No need, no need!” Yan Fei just wanted to take his wife out quickly, no need for gifts!

“Wait, how about this!” The old man casually picked up a string of bracelets and handed them to Xu Xiaoyan. “I could tell at a glance that you’re a child with a pure heart, this is just right for you, wearing it brings good fortune.”

The string of bracelets, with a somewhat greenish hue and white sheen, looked quite antiquated. To say it looked good, well, only the spindle-shaped black piece with white lines looked somewhat decent.

“Thank you very much, old man!” Xu Xiaoyan wasn’t deterred by its appearance, this girl was very straightforward, she took it and expressed her gratitude, even wearing it right away. “I quite like it.”

Though the item wasn’t particularly attractive, the girl’s slender, jade-like fingers made it look beautiful regardless of what she wore, as they say, “her fair wrists looked as though they carried frost and snow.”

The old man was also very pleased, seeing the girl put it on, he chuckled: “Alright, alright, you young folks go have fun!”

Next to him, Meng Si’an had an envious look on his face from the moment the old man picked up the gift, and once outside, he grew silent, making Yan Fei quite curious. Upon walking out, he asked: “Xiao An, I owe you a dog meat debt or something? What’s up?”

“Don’t mind me, I need some peace and quiet.” Meng Si’an replied without turning his head.

“What’s wrong?” Yan Fei was puzzled.

“The old man gave something our entire family wanted to your wife, do you think I’m not envious?” Meng Si’an explained with a sullen face. “That was something the old man received from a living Buddha when he saved countless lives during a disaster relief mission in the Tibetan region years ago.”

“Just this?” Yan Fei took his wife’s hand, carefully examining the bracelet again. “Doesn’t look like it’s worth much, right?”

“It’s not about the money, that’s a Heavenly Bead from a living Buddha, the black one, it wards off evil.” Meng Si’an explained with reddened eyes. “Not only does it ward off evil, but it has many other functions. I’m not exaggerating, if you took it to the Capital, you could exchange it for a house there.”

“Alright, alright, I’ll send you a golden gift later to compensate you.” Yan Fei, after listening, looked carefully for a while but still couldn’t see anything magical about it. However, given the good meaning behind it, he was of course happy – his wife had put it on, after all, the better the meaning, the more pleased he was.

As for the price, it really didn’t matter; seeing that Meng Si’an wasn’t very concerned with the price, it was obviously the meaning that mattered more.

After all, it’s just the price of a house. Hmm, now it can be exchanged for a house, and when house prices surge in twenty years, it could still be exchanged for a house… all close to the Forbidden City.

Of course, rare items are precious; no one really exchanges these for houses, and those who wear them generally don’t lack for a house.

Xu Xiaoyan was also quite pleased, the meaning was so good and it could be exchanged for a house, how wonderful!

This pleasure was directly expressed when choosing a gift for Meng Si’an in the evening, as the girl picked and chose among a pile of pure gold frogs and finally selected a frog weighing about two catties to take to the opening ceremony of Meng Si’an’s restaurant.

Like Yan Fei, the girl wasn’t the type to owe favors. Since the old man was so generous, she couldn’t let Yan Fei lose face.

According to current prices, it’s worth about a hundred thousand, and it’s definitely a gift that wouldn’t lose face – although its future appreciation possibilities, well, that’s impossible to predict, who could foresee the future?

Among the young masters, Meng Si’an was relatively low-key, inviting only young people for the opening. Moreover, according to Yan Fei’s observation, there weren’t many flamboyant attendees, probably due to birds of a feather flocking together.

Everyone at Yan Fei’s table, like him, brought female companions.

They were all young, chatting about anything and everything, and soon got onto the recent hot “mystery” event online, and then discussed the American investigation team issue.

One young man said: “I think they’re just looking for trouble, why should we have to send an investigation team too? It’s not like we’re the ones who lost something?”

At that moment, Yan Fei and Xu Xiaoyan exchanged a look; this was indeed news, as the outside world is only aware that America was calling for an investigation team, but hasn’t heard that they also demanded that China send one!
