Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Ye Chen sat in the bathroom for more than 40 minutes, and his body was covered with another layer of smelly grayish-brown substance.

However, this time it was clearly not as unbearable as the last time.

The warmth within his body had slowly dissipated, and Ye Chen began his half-hour shower.

They didn't stop until their whole bodies were covered in the scent of shower gel.

After taking a shower, Ye Chen stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself. For some reason, the more he looked at himself, the more handsome he became!

However, he believed that he was still slightly inferior to all the gentlemen present!

Even so, Ye Chen looked at the seemingly perfect body in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction.

Although he doesn't have large muscles, he does have muscle definition, giving him a natural, masculine beauty.

After taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill again, the most noticeable feeling was that my hearing and vision were sharper, and my body seemed lighter and more comfortable!

In addition, my lower abdomen felt warm, and my penis was still standing tall and proud, full of energy.

Ye Chen admired himself for several minutes before finally getting dressed.

It must be said that the Marrow Cleansing Pill is indeed extremely rare.

If this thing were sold on the market, it would be snapped up by everyone!

And it's likely that cosmetic surgery won't be a thing anymore.

Ye Chen sat down on the third-floor balcony, brewed a pot of tea, and leisurely looked into the distance.

"Disease-curing pills—Disease-curing pills—"

Even if this thing can cure diseases, he can't use much of it by himself!

Putting aside the fact that his physical condition is different now than before, even in his previous life as a corporate slave, he rarely got sick more than a few times a year.

"Hiss—they claim it's a family secret recipe, and they're selling it to others?"

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, somewhat lost in thought, as he thought of his deceased grandfather!

He wasn't just saying that; his grandfather was indeed a doctor.

To be precise, he was a local folk healer.

As for how his medical skills are compared to those of this era, Ye Chen wasn't quite sure. In any case, he was considered top-notch in the surrounding villages before.

Whenever people in the village feel unwell, they come to his grandfather for treatment. He can cure almost any illness, big or small, with just three doses of medicine.

It was precisely because his grandfather's treatment was truly effective that many people from neighboring villages came to seek his help.

However, Ye Chen's family did not become rich because his grandfather treated patients.

His grandfather only charged a symbolic fee for each doctor's consultation, and many patients didn't even need to be charged.

Ye Chen felt that based on this alone, no matter how good his grandfather's medical skills were, his medical ethics were definitely beyond reproach!

At this moment, recalling what my grandfather did during his years as a doctor, I can't help but feel respect.

Wasn't his grandfather's entire life dedicated to curing people's illnesses?!

Although Ye Chen is not a medical student, his knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine is probably no less than that of students from professional medical schools.

All the traditional Chinese medicine knowledge he possesses was taught to him by his grandfather when he was a child!

Ye Chen's father was a craftsman who had no interest in medicine and lacked the aptitude for it.

Therefore, Ye Chen's grandfather hoped that Ye Chen could inherit his mantle.

I always make him memorize various medicinal herbs, prescriptions, acupoints and meridians, and I constantly instill various kinds of traditional Chinese medicine knowledge in him.

When it came time to choose his university major, his grandfather ultimately left the choice to Ye Chen, telling him to think it through before applying!

"If you want to make money, don't study medicine; you'll only harm people!"

This is the sentence that Ye Chen remembers most vividly.

Perhaps due to his poor family background, or perhaps because he was too young, Ye Chen did not choose the path of studying medicine.

Perhaps in his subconscious, studying medicine is not a way to make money; his grandfather practiced medicine his whole life, but the family was still very poor.

He wanted to make money, change his family's situation, and give his family a better life.

Therefore, he ultimately chose finance as his major.

A profession that looks prestigious and seems like a quick way to make money.

However, as it turned out, learning finance was not as easy as he had imagined in terms of making money.

He has been working for two years, but he still has no savings.

o (╥﹏╥) o

Now, even if Ye Chen wanted to learn from his grandfather again, there was no way he could. Ye Chen's grandfather passed away during the second semester of his freshman year...

Whenever he thinks of his grandfather, he wonders if he made the wrong choice back then.

He neither inherited his grandfather's mantle nor made any money. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of a trading system, he would have ended up with nothing.

Ye Chen let out a long breath, glanced at himself in the mirror, and saw how young he looked...

young--

Yes, he's still young!

Holy crap!!!

He spends his days practicing Tai Chi and going for a run at night with the elderly, and he's almost forgotten that he's a young man in his twenties!

Ye Chen jumped three feet high, a real three feet high!

It almost reached the ceiling!

In that instant, he seemed to see the path he was about to take.

It's not too late to pick up the knowledge he's lost; he's still young.

Now that he no longer has financial pressure, he can pursue other things!

Moreover, he definitely needs to find something to do, otherwise it won't work.

Starting to retire in your early twenties is a bit too early.

Having experienced the wonders of the world, returning to a simpler life—that's true retirement.

Ye Chen hasn't even seen through the world, so there's no such thing as retirement for him.

Ye Chen's eyes shone with light after he made up his mind.

Let's just consider these past few years as a detour; it's not necessarily a bad life experience!

Ye Chen decided to go back to his hometown to sort out the books left by his grandfather.

Moreover, he hasn't been back for a while.

Just as Ye Chen was planning the path he would take next, his phone rang.

Ye Chen picked up his phone and saw it was a voice message from Chen Muyan. He answered it casually.

"Hello!"

"Senior Ye, will you be coming to school the day after tomorrow?" Chen Muyan's voice came through the phone, seemingly filled with anticipation.

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback. He looked at the date and then realized that the day after tomorrow was the school's centennial celebration.

"Oh, go ahead!" Ye Chen said, realizing what was happening.

"Okay, Senior Ye, I'll be meeting you at the main building. You can just come find me!"

"Okay! See you then!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Bye-bye!" Chen Muyan happily hung up the phone.

Ye Chen looked at his phone and then at the time. The school anniversary celebration was the day after tomorrow, so he decided to wait until after the celebration to go back to his hometown.

I won't be traveling these next couple of days, otherwise it wouldn't be good to leave right after getting home.

He wondered if it would be appropriate to send something as a gift.

Of course, no one stipulates that you must give something to the school for the anniversary celebration; giving something or not is optional.

It depends on the individual; it's just a personal token of appreciation.

Ye Chen thought that since he had some extra money, he should give some away as a token of his appreciation.

The only thing he has that's truly valuable right now is gold bars!

or--

How about we send two gold bricks to calm your nerves...?

Oops—that's not right!

That seems too tacky!

Why not process it into an art piece? That way it won't look tacky.

Ye Chen thought this method was feasible!

Without thinking, Ye Chen took out four gold bricks from the safe, casually put them into a plastic bag, and went out the door!
