40: Ex Classmate 40: Ex Classmate Editor: _Lunaelle, The_Dreamweavers Wearing a camouflage outfit and a pair of old leather shoes that hadn’t been polished for a long ti, with very short hair in a crew cut, that’s how Peter looked now.
After wandering around the herb market in East Sea Province for a while, Peter couldn’t help but marvel at how huge this place was, as he hadn’t managed to visit the entire market in such a long ti.
Along the way, Peter saw many trucks and cars carrying herbal dicine to be distributed all over the country.
Peter found a dicinal diet hotpot restaurant, ordered a hotpot, and ate alone.
After taking a few bites, Peter shook his head in secret, thinking that the dicinal diet hotpot was not well-matched, and there were big problems in the choice of herbs from a pharmacological perspective.
However, he just thought about it for a mont and didn’t intend to change anything.
As he ate the hotpot, an idea ca to Peter’s mind: if he opened a hotpot restaurant like this in the future, he might be able to make so money.
While he was eating, there were voices coming from the entrance, and then so young n and won accompanied by two middle-aged people walked in.
When Peter looked up, his eyes lit up and he stared at a beautiful woman in the center.
“Peter…
Peter…
Brown?”
The beautiful woman also saw Peter at this mont and asked hesitantly, as if she couldn’t recognize him.
“Hello, Class President.”
Peter stood up.
The woman was Sophia Gibson, his beautiful class president from high school.
Peter had copied her howork many tis back then.
“You really are Peter!”
A look of surprise and joy appeared on Sophia’s face.
“I didn’t expect to et you here, Class President!”
Peter was also amazed.
“Our class of students ca here with our teacher to learn about herbal dicine.”
Peter was surprised, “You’re studying dicine?”
“Yea!
Traditional dicine!”
Peter was astounded, as he had never thought his beautiful class president would have chosen to study traditional dicine.
This was sothing he could never have imagined.
“Haha, you didn’t expect it, did you?
Let tell you, my grandfather and my father are both practitioners of traditional dicine, so of course I have to study it too.”
Seeing Sophia’s proud look, Peter also laughed, rembering that her father was indeed a doctor of traditional dicine.
“Sophia, who is this?”
A handso male student suddenly asked.
“Jalen, this is Peter, my high school classmate.”
The handso male student looked at Peter with a wary gaze and relaxed when he saw Peter’s outfit.
He showed a faint smile and said, “Nice to et you, I’m in the sa class as Sophia, and I am the vice president of the student union.
Would you mind telling which school you are studying at, Peter?”
“I’m not studying.”
Noticing the change in Jalen’s expression and looking at Sophia, who was even more beautiful now, Peter gained so enlightennt.
“Haha, today I’ve spent so ti in the market, and have you guys gained anything?” An elderly man with a scholarly air asked with a smile.
At this mont, Sophia’s classmates entered the restaurant.
Listening to the students eagerly reporting their findings to their teacher, Peter couldn’t help but feel envious.
He was reminded of his ti at school and couldn’t help but sigh.
If it weren’t for that incident, he might now be a college student too.
Glancing at Sophia, Peter guessed that she should be a third-year college student now.
Being able to go to college was a happy thing, but unfortunately, such a happy life was impossible for himself.
“Peter, a few days ago, I got calls from several of our old classmates.
They ntioned you, and everyone said they hadn’t seen you.
Give your phone number, so we can call you when we have a reunion.”
Peter had no choice but to give his mobile number to Sophia.
Seeing Sophia constantly talking to Peter, Jalen frowned and suddenly said loudly, “Peter, are you working here?”
His voice was loud enough to be heard by everyone, and all the people who were talking turned their eyes to Peter.
Exactly the response Jalen wanted, he introduced Peter to the other classmates with a smile: “Fellow students, this is Peter, an old classmate of Sophia.
Isn’t it amazing that we t here unexpectedly?”
When he spoke, Jalen also looked Peter up and down and asked, “Peter, are you working here?”
“No, I’ve contracted so land, and I ca to see what herbal dicine I can plant.
I plan to buy so and plant them.”
“Contracted so land?” Jalen looked Peter up and down again and smiled.
“You’re from the countryside?”
Peter nodded and said, “Sophia knows, I’m from a farming family.
Now, I’ve contracted a piece of wasteland in the village.
I ca here to see if I can plant so herbal dicine.”
“Do you know how to grow herbal dicine?”
“I will learn, it shouldn’t be difficult.”
Jalen laughed and said, “Farrs nowadays are really aweso.
They want to plant herbal dicine as if it’s no big deal.
I do know that so herbal dicines are very valuable, and you can try planting them.”
“Oh, that’s great.
I didn’t know what to plant.”
“Plant cordyceps.”
“Oh?”
Jalen laughed first and said, “It’s hilarious.
Don’t you know that cordyceps cannot be cultivated?
It is a fungus that parasitizes the caterpillar of a moth, and the fungus develops into a caterpillar-fungus product under specific environntal conditions.
The conditions required for cordyceps are very stringent and cannot be artificially replicated.
To date, no one has been able to successfully cultivated cordyceps.
Many people now use various insect pupae and so fungi to produce sothing that looks like cordyceps, but it is not the real thing.
Its dicinal value and nutritional value have nothing to do with real cordyceps.
Even 90% of the cordyceps sold in the market is fake because the actual yield of cordyceps is minimal.
As soon as they are unearthed, they are bought up, and only a few reach the market.
Even the ones sold in branded stores are not entirely genuine.
You don’t even know so basic common sense, and yet you want to plant herbal dicine.
I wonder how much money you can earn from it?”
Peter nodded and said, “You’re very knowledgeable.
Thank you for your enlightennt!”
Jalen originally wanted to mock Peter, but he hadn’t expected Peter to praise him instead.
He suddenly felt awkward, as if his punch had not hit anything.
“Peter, take it slow; don’t try to do everything too quickly.”
Sophia apparently knew Peter’s family situation and thought that Peter might have just been released from prison and didn’t know the situation yet.
He must have borrowed money to start sothing, and she felt she needed to give him so advice.
Peter said, “Well, I’m just looking for now.”
“How about you join us and take a look together?
We can give you so suggestions if needed.”
Sophia was also very enthusiastic.
