After everyone finished eating, they decided to walk into the market together.
Pulled along by Sophia Gibson, Peter Brown could only follow them to the market.
Along the way, the two old men introduced various herbal medicine materials and even shared some knowledge about their medicinal properties. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Meanwhile, Peter listened while searching for the herbs he wanted.
It must be said that there were many herbs here, along with different types of seeds.
“Our country has so many herbs, all thanks to the contributions of our ancestors.
You must all study well.”
As the professor introduced the herbs, he did not forget to educate everyone.
“Hi, I heard you want to plant herbs.
Have you found what you’re looking for?” One of the professors asked Peter with a teasing smile.
“Professor Smith, I plan to try planting a bit of each.”
“Hmm, testing it out is a good idea, it’s safer that way,” the old professor nodded slightly.
Jalen laughed and said, “Farmers should just stick to planting vegetables and such.
It’s more practical and profitable.
Planting herbal medicines is not easy, and it takes a lot of money.
Traditional medicine is not something anyone can easily get into.
Vegetables and herbs are two completely different things!”
Seeing Jalen’s smug expression, Peter was unhappy and thought to himself that everyone knew he was trying to pursue the beautiful girl, but he didn’t have to put Peter down like that to show off.
Feeling displeased, Peter decided to put Jalen in his place and pointed to a stall selling Epimedium, “What is this herbal medicine?”
Jalen laughed and rattled off, “Epimedium refers to the stems and leaves of several species in the genus, such as Epimedium of the Berberidaceae, Epimedium sagittatum, Epimedium grandiflorum, and Epimedium koreanum.
The medicinal properties include warming the liver and kidney and treating rheumatism.
Epimedium is a perennial plant, known as the plant Viagra…”
This guy turned out to be a true academic achiever, who started quoting books at the drop of a hat.
Peter interrupted him and said with a smile, “In fact, I can achieve the same effect by mixing several diaphoretic herbs together.”
Jalen laughed out loud, “You’re just talking nonsense now.
You’re not taking these herbs seriously!”
“You don’t believe me?”
“Of course not.”
Peter glanced at a nearby restaurant and said, “Would you dare to eat the dish I prepare?”
“You want to bet?”
“Sure.”
“I bet you won’t dare.
Let’s bet 10,000 dollars.”
As he spoke, Jalen took out his bank card and said, “Do you dare to bet?”
“Jalen!” Sophia frowned.
Jalen laughed.
“He’s the one who wants to make a dish for me to eat.”
The two professors didn’t say anything, shaking their heads at Peter’s words.
“Fine, I have a bank card too.
Let’s bet, but don’t make a fool of yourself.”
“I’ll watch you prepare it, then I’ll eat it.”
“Alright.”
Both of them walked into the restaurant.
When the owner greeted them, Peter handed over 100 dollars and said, “I’ll just take a few dishes.
You don’t have to cook them.”
Although the owner was puzzled, he still nodded with a smile.
As everyone was young and curious, Sophia’s male and female classmates all gathered around.
At this point, they saw Peter take out a bunch of different vegetables and pick a small portion from each.
Nobody knew how he did it, but he quickly served up a bowl and added some seasonings before handing it to Jalen, “You saw me prepare it.
It’s definitely clean.
It’s a cold dish.
Do you dare to eat it?”
Having watched the entire process, Jalen couldn’t find anything off about it.
Looking at the contents of the plate, the ingredients seemed to go well together, and the seasonings only made it more appetizing.
He laughed, “Fine, I’ll eat it to show you.”
As he spoke, Jalen picked up the food with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, then praised, “Your cold dish is quite good.”
Everyone watched Jalen eat, laughing.
One of the male students said, “The cold dish looks really appetizing.”
Just as he finished speaking, everyone saw Jalen’s expression change suddenly.
Jalen’s face turned red immediately, and his eyes looked bloodshot.
“Ah!” A girl student noticed the change in Jalen’s pants and covered her mouth, giggling as she retreated to one side.
Before everyone understood what was happening, Jalen acted like he was possessed and lunged at a girl.
In an instant, the entire restaurant was in chaos.
The two professors were shocked, and Professor Smith shouted, “Hold him down!”
The male classmates rushed up to restrain Jalen.
At this point, Professor Smith felt Jalen’s pulse.
After a while, Professor Smith’s face changed, and he looked at Peter.
“He’s fine!” Peter said.
“Feel his pulse.”
Also feeling Jalen’s pulse, Professor Watson exclaimed, “It’s the symptoms of taking medication!”
“And the most intense kind, if he doesn’t get help soon, he’ll lose his mind!”
The classmates also touched Jalen’s hand.
Very quickly, everyone’s gaze turned to Peter.
At this point, Peter went up again and picked a few more parts from the vegetables, added a glass of spirit, and shook it before giving it to Jalen to drink.
Unexpectedly, after drinking the wine, Jalen instantly sobered up.
“What happened?” Jalen asked when he saw everyone looking at him.
“Are you alright?” asked a male student.
At this moment, Professor Watson grabbed Jalen’s hand and checked his pulse again.
Once done, he looked at the uneaten cold dish with a complicated expression.
Professor Smith did the same, also staring at the dish afterward.
“How is this possible?” Both professors were puzzled by this unprecedented situation.
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Peter got bored and shook his head before walking out.
Everyone’s eyes were still on the dish and Jalen, and they didn’t even notice Peter had left.
After a while, Professor Smith asked Peter, “What’s the explanation for this?”
Only after asking did he look around and say, “Where’s Peter?”
It was only then that everyone thought of Peter, but when they looked around, they couldn’t find him.
“Take this dish for testing!” Professor Watson pointed at the plate.
“Test this wine too!”
“Yes, this is something we’ve never seen before!”
At this point, Sophia’s eyes lit up as she murmured to herself, “What on earth did this brat do?”
Jalen, who now knew what had happened, looked extremely embarrassed.
