After returning home, Jiang Ning took two bottles of "Evergreen Liquid" and put two gold bars in them.
Using the Soul-Sinking Incense to assist in cultivation is quite costly. One pound of the Soul-Sinking Incense is worth thirty thousand yuan.
One pound of incense can be made into twenty-four incense sticks. If you use three sticks a day, they will be used up in eight days.
The cost of practicing every day is nearly four thousand yuan.
It is indeed not easy to cultivate spiritual consciousness. In comparison, it is easier to cultivate the body in this world. Once you find the right method, you can cultivate with the help of voltage. As long as you get enough nutrition, you will progress very quickly.
Jiang Ning rode his bike to the pawn shop in the city. Small insects flying in the air flew towards him. As soon as they touched Jiang Ning's skin, they were electrocuted to death by the weak electric current that popped out.
Arriving at the pawn shop, Jiang Ning pushed the door open as usual. As expected, Shao Shuangshuang was the only one inside.
"You're here?" Shao Shuangshuang greeted him. Jiang Ning had come three times and was considered a regular customer of the store.
Jiang Ning went straight to the point: "Do you have any jade material here? Take it out and let me see it."
The jade material used to make protective jade pendants must be able to withstand spiritual formations.
Jiang Ning was not quite sure what kind of jade material could be used in the current world, so he needed to conduct a few more experiments on the spot. Since he came to Shao Shuangshuang to exchange for gold, he might as well ask her.
"We have some jade materials, but not many varieties." After all, this is not a jade shop, but just a pawn shop similar to a middleman.
The largest items in stock in the store are watches, gold, and jewelry. As for antiques, Shao Shuangshuang doesn't deal with them because she has a poor eye and can easily make mistakes, and she doesn't have enough money.
"Let me find it for you."
Shao Shuangshuang searched the counter for a while, took out a box, put it on the table, and then opened the box. On the white silk cloth were pieces of jade of different colors and sizes.
"These are all the jade materials in the store. There are also some jade jewelry. Do you want to see them?"
"Let's look at the material first, and then give me a glove." Jiang Ning said.
Shao Shuangshuang smiled and said, "It's not that complicated. Just do it."
Jiang Ning touched the jade, sensing them one by one, and finally selected two egg-sized pieces of light blue jade. The material of these two pieces of jade could be used to engrave spiritual formations.
"How much?"
"It's not valuable, just take it." Shao Shuangshuang said.
"I won't take advantage of you."
"Just give me 800, the material is not worth much."
The two items selected by Jiang Ning were actually worth thousands of dollars. Considering that he had come twice, Shao Shuangshuang gave him a discount.
"OK."
Jiang Ning accepted it. He had just asked casually at first, but he didn't expect that Shao Shuangshuang really had jade materials. As expected of a pawnbroker, he had all kinds of rare and strange things.
After buying the jade material, Jiang Ning also paid for two gold bars.
"Just transfer the money directly." Jiang Ning used to accept cash, but later he went to an ATM to deposit money to buy the Soul-Sinking Incense, which was quite troublesome.
Now that he is familiar with the transaction and he has locked on Shao Shuangshuang as his target, he can relax his vigilance a little.
His bank card was opened using his parents' identities, but it was bound to his current mobile phone number, and text message reminders were also sent to this number, so his parents did not know the balance in the card.
After Shao Shuangshuang transferred the money.
Jiang Ning received a text message on his mobile phone indicating that 170,000 yuan had been deposited into his account. The balance, which had shrunk due to the purchase of the Shenhun Incense, was replenished again and reached more than 200,000 yuan.
This money is enough for a down payment on a house in Ancheng.
After the transaction was completed, Shao Shuangshuang hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to ask:
"How did you know I was losing my hair recently?"
In fact, she usually doesn't tell others about such private matters. It was really too strange last time. Before Jiang Ning left, he actually noticed that she was losing her hair and reminded her.
Every time Shao Shuangshuang's hair fell out these days, she would think of Jiang Ning's words.
Patients are always like this, trying their best to grasp every hope and ponder every clue to increase the hope of recovery.
"Judging from your condition, my cousin is exactly like you." Jiang Ning made up an excuse.
However, when Shao Shuangshuang heard it, she did not pay attention to how he made the judgment, but focused on his cousin.
"Is your cousin suffering from hair loss?" she inquired.
"right."
In Shao Shuang's eyes, Jiang Ning immediately looked experienced.
"What happened to your cousin later?" she continued to inquire.
Sometimes patients do not trust doctors, but instead trust their "predecessors" who suffer from the same symptoms as them, and want to judge what their future condition will be like based on their current condition.
Jiang Ning looked at her and smiled brightly:
"Later, she became bald."
Shao Shuangshuang's heart tightened, and her mood changed, but she maintained her smile:
"You won't lie to me."
Of course Jiang Ning lied to her. He continued to attack:
"She's really bald. Can you imagine a woman being bald?"
Shao Shuangshuang could think of it, but she didn't dare to think about it. She hadn't gotten married yet. If she became bald at such a young age, that would be really outstanding.
A few days ago on the Mid-Autumn Festival evening, their whole family gathered together to celebrate the festival. My cousin is 24 years old this year and works in a government agency. He has a bright future. He is from Yuzhou and has good conditions. Such a young talent would not lack a partner.
However, the tragedy is that he became bald at the age of 24, with sparse hair. If he was completely bald, it would be fine and he would have become a bald head, but unfortunately only the top of his head was bald, which became a standard "Mediterranean" hairstyle.
Because of his baldness, the women who were going on blind dates were happy to accept his invitation, but after seeing his hairstyle, they all thought it was not suitable.
Shao Shuangshuang could empathize with her cousin's helplessness and bitterness. With the experience of her peers as a lesson, she became even more anxious when she thought that she was on the road to baldness.
"I've been bald for about a year or two. My cousin used some medicine, Chinese medicine. You know Chinese medicine, right?"
"After using Chinese medicine, my hair grew back." Jiang Ning fooled her.
Chinese medicine always has a "mysterious" effect. You often hear people say that they got sick, went to several famous hospitals, spent a lot of money, but could not be cured.
Finally, I found a famous old Chinese doctor somewhere, spent dozens or hundreds of dollars on him, and he prescribed some medicine. I recovered quickly.
Jiang Ning had heard of several such cases.
We cannot completely deny traditional Chinese medicine. Some Chinese medicine practitioners are indeed very good. Of course, there are also many quacks. The reputation of traditional Chinese medicine has been mostly ruined by those quacks.
Shao Shuangshuang's first reaction was disbelief. It sounded too fake. Her cousin had even considered going to the hospital for hair transplantation, but it was expensive. Depending on the amount of hair to be transplanted, it could cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
Seeing her hesitation, Jiang Ning said:
"Let me show you what my cousin just posted yesterday."
He took out his cell phone, logged into QQ, then clicked on a person's avatar and entered her QQ space.
The latest news:
"Let's just say this white bottle of hair dye is amazing! I was bald for three years, and after applying it for a month, my hair actually grew out! Wow! It's real, I'm crying, the white bottle of hair dye is forever amazing! Bald sisters, hurry up and try it! Expression x7."
Below are some comparison photos before and after baldness. The difference is huge, like two different people.
In addition, there are several down-to-earth product close-ups.
Shao Shuangshuang stared at it for a long time with longing eyes, and finally returned the phone to Jiang Ning reluctantly.
Jiang Ning was satisfied. The number was bought, the picture was photoshopped, and everything was carefully designed.
But the Evergreen Liquid is real, produced by the world of immortal cultivation, and has a strong hair growth effect. As long as Shao Shuangshuang takes the bait, he will never be able to escape.
If a virtual "cousin" was not created in advance, but the Evergreen Liquid was suddenly given to Shao Shuangshuang, she would most likely not try it.
After all, this medicine is used on the head.
But with a "cousin" who shares the same disease as an example, patients often become more courageous to try.
Sure enough, after seeing the real case, Shao Shuangshuang asked Jiang Ning:
"Does this hair dye really work?"
Jiang Ning said: "I'm not sure, how about I ask my cousin for you?"
"Thank you. Please contact me as soon as possible if you have any follow-up news."
She then asked, "Do you use WeChat? Let's add each other."
"This software is very useful. My second uncle is illiterate, but now he holds his phone every day and sends voice messages to chat in the group."
Shao Shuangshuang said something extra.
"I have WeChat." Jiang Ning said.
During this period, the number of WeChat users has exceeded 400 million and is rapidly heading towards 600 million, gradually becoming a trend.
