I'm building Gundams in America

Upon seeing the notification, Wayne's eyes widened in surprise.

Then he began to quickly rummage through the pile of copper coins.

This pile of copper coins contains about fifty or sixty pieces, most of which are worthless Song and Qing dynasty coins, mainly because there are too many of them in existence.

However, in Mike's naive view, his brother only liked expensive items, so he had no idea about the actual market price of these things.

Soon, Wayne found a dirty-looking copper coin among the pile of coins.

This is an ordinary sacred treasure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

The weight is the same as that of ordinary copper coins, and there is no difference at all.

Wayne raised his hand and swiped the copper coin across the ground, removing the black grime from the edges to reveal a hint of yellow.

It was just an ordinary copper coin.

Just as I was wondering, a line of text appeared before my eyes:

[Messiah Coin: This coin was touched by the Messiah and has become imbued with his aura, thus becoming a sacred relic.]

Wayne raised an eyebrow.

Messiah... Taiping Heavenly Kingdom...

There have only been two people in this world who have ever been called the true Messiah.

One is Jesus.

The other was Hong Xiuquan, the Heavenly King and brother of Jesus.

This coin was minted 1,800 years after Jesus had died.

Therefore, it goes without saying which messiah touched it.

This copper coin was once touched by Hong Xiuquan, one of the two Heavenly Brothers.

This is a genuine artifact in the epic quest "Heaven on Earth".

Wayne continued looking at the panel.

[Messiah Coin: As a relic, this coin can be exchanged for shop gold at a 1:1 ratio; it can also be used to hire shelter guards in advance, with each coin hiring one shelter guard for ten minutes.]

nice one.

Absolutely great stuff.

Wayne was thrilled.

The fact that it can be exchanged for shop coins at a 1:1 ratio is already worth the price.

Based on current gold prices, one gold coin from the system store is worth at least 13,000 US dollars.

Mike bought this whole bunch of stuff, and it only cost him a little over five thousand dollars.

The option to "hire a shelter guard in advance" also appealed to Wayne.

He turned to look at the eight corpses kneeling in the ground, as if in prayer.

Are they the so-called shelter guards?

If that's the case, it's practically like someone coming back to life on the spot and manipulating a corpse.

Putting aside the combat capabilities of these guards, the sheer impact of this terrifying scene alone is enough to deter any enemy with ulterior motives!

This Messiah coin is truly a treasure.

Even though it looks no different from an ordinary Taiping Heavenly Kingdom copper coin, it holds immense significance for Wayne.

Wayne then turned to Mike, who was standing nearby, and asked:

"Mike, these things are amazing! Where did you find them?"

Mike realized that his brother genuinely liked these things and understood that his choice was right.

He felt greatly relieved.

Honestly, after spending over five thousand US dollars on so many things, he was afraid of making a mistake.

Since his brother liked it so much, he was overjoyed and immediately said:

"I bought it from a shop called 'Sir George Antique Shop' in a tourist area near the harbor. The shop doesn't look very impressive, but according to the owner, it has been open for over a hundred years."

"The shop has many antiques from all over the world, including some with characters similar to those on this flag. I picked out a few to bring to you."

As he spoke, Mike pointed to the "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" flag hanging on the wall behind him.

Upon hearing this, Wayne's eyes lit up.

The flag of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was found in the ruins of a shop called "Sir George's Antique Shop" in this alley.

Surprisingly, this shop is still in existence.

Wayne then said:

"Bro, take me to check out this store tomorrow."

Mike quickly said:

"Okay bro, no problem. I think you can find a lot of things you like there... but the prices are a bit high... maybe we can go now?"

Wayne shook his head:

"It's too late now, the shops should be closed by now, and we have other work to do tonight... We've run out of dexamethasone and it's hard to replenish it in the short term, so we need to make some allicin to supplement the fish medicine."

Allicin is an active sulfur compound produced by the decomposition of alliinase, a precursor substance of alliin, when garlic is crushed. Its chemical name is allyl 2-allyl thiosulfinate.

This stuff has a powerful broad-spectrum antibacterial and sterilization effect. When used in combination with antibiotics, it can reduce drug resistance, protect the cardiovascular system, and has anti-cancer potential.

I can't get dexamethasone for the time being, but I'll make some allicin to use; it's quite effective.

After all, for homeless people and good neighbors in impoverished communities, allicin is already a rare and precious medicine.

As for how to make it, not to mention that Wayne's compound making skill includes this thing, there are many tutorials online.

Back when the US and China were having a major showdown over the issue in the little red book, among the many pertinent suggestions given by netizens from the University of the East to those middle-class netizens from the University of the West who were on the verge of bankruptcy, especially those who dared not go to the hospital because of health insurance issues, was making their own garlic extract.

This has sparked a wave of enthusiasm among some middle-class netizens at Xida University.

Of course, the Western Congress quickly passed a National Defense Authorization Act, listing Eastern garlic as an item that threatens the national security of the Western Congress, alongside laser radar technology.

The main reason is that the imported garlic from Dongda University is three to four times cheaper than the local garlic from Xida University.

Having prepared the garlic, olive oil, and various kitchen utensils he had bought, Wayne summoned his followers and began his demonstration at the uninhabited end of the alley.

Soon, everyone understood how to operate it—this thing was actually very simple, and under Mike's guidance, they began to extract and produce allicin.

Garlic extract made from olive oil needs to be refrigerated to preserve it for about six days.

It's winter now, and there are some rather cold places in the underground alleys, which saves a lot of trouble.

After Wayne explained the effects of allicin, the group of followers present were moved to tears once again.

For many of them, there is simply no way to access this kind of knowledge.

After all, 21% of the American population is functionally illiterate, and 54% of them have a literacy level below the sixth grade of elementary school.

Allicin involves too many medical terms, and many people, even if they find it online, simply cannot understand it.

The entire Western professional English system is deliberately designed as a mess of gibberish code; non-professionals have never even seen many of the terms.

This is why most people in America cannot treat their illnesses on their own and must see a doctor.

If you want to heal yourself, you at least need to be able to understand those seemingly unrelated medical terms.

After preparing enough garlic extract for the next day, everyone went to rest in excitement.

Of course, before going to sleep, they also followed Mr. Saint's instructions and each of them took some garlic solution.

This is good for their health.

It also gave everyone a greater sense of belonging.

Early the next morning, Wayne, accompanied by Mike and David, and with their dog Wick in tow, drove their 18-year-old Toyota sedan toward the tourist area.

He wants to find more relics.

In the name of the Heavenly Brother.
