Seven hundred and ninetieth chapters meet again

Amin, who returned to the school playground to look for US dollars, had no idea, because a series of incidents made the inspection forces in the entire area rise unprecedentedly. Patrol teams stationed in towns in various places were dispatched everywhere, conducting a dragnet-style inspection overnight, which was a mess.

"Wow, finally the thing returned to the original owner!" According to the direction in my memory, Amin sneaked into the playground in the dark, took the risk and finally pulled out the small paper box hidden in the sand pit in a hasty way.

After checking the safety of the US dollar bills in the paper box through the starlight, Amin was completely relieved. As long as he brought the US dollar home safely, he would have enough money to apply for a passport and go to the mainland to take refuge safely.

I jumped over the wall and jumped out of school. Before I could walk far, my phone on my body vibrated.

Amin took it out and saw that it was called by his cousin, Xiao Ma.

"Amin, where have you died? If you don't come back so late, Uncle Song is almost worried about you! Now the entire Saigon City is investigating any rebel spies. If you hang out outside and get caught, you will be finished." Brother Ma said on the other end of the phone.

"It's okay, I'll go back soon. Tell dad not to worry. Just like that, I'll hang up..." Amin is now in a happy event, and hung up the phone with a happy look on his face. He thought that Brother Ma was exaggerating and checking what the relationship between the spy had with him.

"Lalalalala..."

Amin hummed pop songs all the way to the woods where the bicycle was hidden. He wore glasses under the bottle, fumbled for a while, found the bicycle as he wished, and happily rode back to Saigon.

Who knows-

Before I could ride far, I was immediately blocked by a group of people.

"No, it's the patrol team! It's so late, why are there so many people?" Amin couldn't figure out why the patrol team, who was usually lazy, would be like a big enemy, and everyone would carry guns.

Before he could argue, he was pulled off from his bicycle and captured with all his might.

"Sir, this was found from him." A patrolman handed over the small cardboard box found from Amin to the leader of the team leader.

He ordered his subordinates to turn on the flashlight and took a look through the light. The leader of the team immediately looked straight and showed an extremely greedy look.

Oh my God, so many US dollars! Foreign exchange is so scarce now that this small box of US dollars can match at least five years of salary.

"Sir, this guy actually smuggled US dollars!" his subordinate looked at Amin and said to the chief.

"Take him back!" At the command of the commander, Amin was immediately handcuffed and was taken into the prison van in great depression.

The small box of US dollars was added to five by two and one, and was shared by all the patrol teams on the scene.

...

However, after Liu Jianming drove the seized jeep, he fled the village and stayed in the mountains overnight.

As soon as the sky turned white the next day, Liu Jianming drove to the outskirts of Saigon, picked a secluded place and pushed the jeep down the river, and then took a little makeup and sneaked into Saigon City.

"The shipping address on the order of Lu Fengchun's relics is in Saigon City. I just need to search for the medicinal materials shops in the city one by one and inquire about it one by one."

There are not many traditional Chinese medicine shops in Saigon. When it was almost noon, I finally visited all the big and small medicinal shops, but none of them sold benzoin.

"There is only the last one left. If there is not here, I can only go to other cities to check out..." Standing under the sign of Renaitang Chinese Medicine Store, Liu Jianming lowered his head and thought helplessly.

I really didn't expect that it would take so much effort to find the first medicine to attract the first medicine. I had to completely collect all the necessary materials for the Nine Yang Pill. I didn't know that it would be the year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

"As long as I grind a deep iron rod into a needle and work hard, I will definitely succeed! Since that 'silver-haired girl' Chen Junxi can successfully refine the Nine Yang Pill without golden fingers, then I have golden fingers to be with me, and there is no reason to refine it."

Thinking of this in my heart, I strengthened my determination to refine the alchemy.

He strode into the gate of Renaitang. Although the store was not too big, the sparrow was small and had all the internal organs. In the strange fragrance of medicine, an old man with gray hair was screening the medicinal materials behind the counter.

Liu Jianming walked to the counter and said, "Shopkeeper, I want to ask, do you have a rare medicinal material here?"

The old man raised his head and looked at the customer in front of him through the lenses of the reading glasses: "Customer, I don't know which medicinal herbs you are going to buy. Our Renaitang has been in operation for nearly twenty years. As long as it is a specialty of Yue, I can know a little or two."

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Liu Jianming felt much more at ease, "Shopkeeper, have you ever heard of benzoin? I need it urgently, at least one or two. Do you have any inventory here? Or do you know where to buy it?"

"Benzo?" The old man frowned involuntarily, "It's a coincidence. If it's a normal day, I can get you even a pound, as long as you can afford that money. But now--"

He changed his subject: "Not just talking about one or two, even if it's half a dollar."

Liu Jianming suddenly looked frustrated, and thought to himself, "I'm so unlucky, am I here to find benzoin, but I caught up with the war. Could it be that I can wait until the war is over before asking for purchases? They have fought a civil war for ten years, and I have to wait for them for ten years?"

"But..." The old man made another magical turn, "If you are really anxious, you can only go to the place of origin and try your luck. There is a war near Saigon, and it will probably not take long to affect it. The transportation of medicinal materials has been paralyzed, and even if we want to order, we can't order it."

Seeing that there was still a glimmer of hope, Liu Jianming quickly asked: "Shopkeeper, do you know where the origin of Benzoin is?"

"This..." The old man shook his head, "We don't know the specific address and we have no right to know the specific address. If you want to find out the origin, you must find the 'big guy'."

"Big man?"

Liu Jianming nodded in a vague way.

At this moment, a familiar greeting suddenly came from the upstairs: "Ali?!"

Liu Jianming looked in the voice—

It is the little brother Ma who has a split.

"Hahaha! Ali, it's really you!" Brother Ma was very happy. He ran down the stairs in two steps in three steps, hugged Liu Jianming's shoulder and laughed.

"What? You two know each other?" The old man looked confused.

"Of course, he is my best buddy." Brother Ma patted Liu Jianming's shoulder and introduced to the old man: "Second uncle, his name is Ali. He helped a lot when he was in Hong Kong. Without him, I would have died many times."
