The two remaining medicinal compounds, one was ground into a powder, readily available for use in people’s meals. The other was fashioned into incense sticks, designed for use while others were deep in their slumber at night.

One was direct, the other indirect, perfectly compatible.

No, it wasn’t really perfect – they were just too scarce.

Two portions of the sedative could only be used twice at most, and then they would be gone.

But with Lu Yuan’s nature, how could he be satisfied with just two portions of something that could save his life?

The sedative, an essential item for self-defence – no, for murdering… when travelling or staying at home, the more the better.

So, ever since he successfully crafted the sedative a few days ago.

He took the opportunity when he was going to the city to buy some herbs for martial arts practice and asked Zhou Ze to buy some more Seven-step fragrance compounds, intending to make a few more sedatives.

Unfortunately, Doctor Zhou didn’t have any spare compound in his hands. The ten portions of the compound he had initially were the only stock in his nanas.

After all, for Zhou Ze, practicing medicine and treating illnesses was his main business, enough to support his whole family.

Other things like sedatives were also handy, just as a means of self-defence in case of emergencies.

Not being able to buy the medicine compound, Zhou Ze had some ready-made Seven-step fragrance in his hands, but that was someone’s last-ditch lifesaving means, Lu Yuan couldn’t possibly ask for it.

This was not only due to embarrassment but also the fact that he knew that even if he requested it, he wouldn’t get it.

So, he could only entrust the other party to purchase some medicine compound.

If it depended on him gathering it slowly, with no channel or connections, only God knows how many years it would take to gather it all.

For this, Lu Yuan paid another one hundred silver taels as a deposit.

There was no choice.

Those herbs were all rare items, purchasing them requires a cost. Without sufficient money, why would people help you buy them?

That Zhou Ze was willing to spend time on his behalf, was already a huge favor.

In addition to gratitude, Lu Yuan could only be thinking about how he could repay Doctor Zhou in the future.

Well, the premise of repayment was that it would not harm himself.

After all, the prospective longevity practitioner still cherished his life very much.

All in all, after two purchases of the sedative, Lu Yuan spent a total of two hundred silver taels like a running water.

Taking into consideration the martial arts practice expenses, his savings suddenly dropped below one hundred again, leaving only thirty-seven silver taels.

This money, even if spent sparingly, could at most only cover half a year of expenses.

If there is no income by then, his martial arts progress would have to stop.

This was unacceptable.

“So, now that spring has started, the few doses of subpar sedative in my hands should come in handy.”

Returning home, Lu Yuan fetched several small bottles from the cupboard, looked at the sedative inside, and a smile appeared on his face.

Although these sedatives were the inferior products of failure, he had conducted tests over these days. Even less than half a dose could stun a sturdy bull.

On this point, one could consult the suddenly extremely sleepy water buffalos in the town this winter.

They were speaking from personal experience.

Looking at the slightly yellow medicinal powder, Lu Yuan seemed to see the prey waving at him.

Among these prey, fierce tigers, wild bears, wild boars, etc., all of them that he previously found difficult to handle were included.

Whether he could amass wealth again depended entirely on these lovely powders in front of his eyes.

He believed that they would not let him down.

Because these were the crystallization of his own sweat and wisdom.

Hard-working people always have good luck and succeed.

Lu Yuan firmly believed in this..
