Wang Ming opened his backpack, which contained a large quantity of herbs.

These herbs radiate an alluring glow; they are indeed *Gynostemma pentaphyllum*.

These are also the materials used to make basic instant health and mana regeneration potions.

These ginseng herbs were collected by Wang Ming when he was in the beginner village, but he never used them after entering the main city.

Upon receiving this news, Wang Ming quickly began refining the Instant Recovery Potion.

"System notification: You have used 1 Earth Ginseng Grass".

"System notification: Your basic instant health recovery potion has been successfully crafted. You have obtained 1 basic instant health recovery potion and gained 5 points of alchemist proficiency."

...

"System notification: Your secondary profession, Alchemist, has reached its maximum proficiency level. You can go to the Alchemist Association in the main city to improve your Alchemist level."

...

Fifteen minutes later, Wang Ming used up all the ginseng grass in his backpack.

Wang Ming also obtained more than 50 bottles of basic health regeneration potions and more than 20 bottles of basic mana regeneration potions.

"Not enough, not nearly enough."

Wang Ming put both types of instant recovery potions into the auction house for 50 silver coins each, then opened the map and headed towards the location of the Earth Ginseng Grass.

An hour later, Wang Ming arrived at the area of ​​the wild ginseng.

The soil ginseng grass outside the main city is much denser than in the starting village.

Wang Ming took out an iron shovel and began digging up the ginseng grass.

"System notification: Congratulations, you have obtained a first-grade spiritual herb - Earth Ginseng Grass".

"System notification: Congratulations, you have obtained a first-grade spiritual herb - Earth Ginseng Grass".

...

"System notification: Congratulations, your gathering skill has been upgraded."

"The gathering skill has been upgraded." Wang Ming opened the character's life skills and began to check.

Gathering Technique:

Level: 2

Proficiency: 1000/5000

Description: Can collect medicinal herbs of grade two and below, and has a 20% chance of obtaining an additional medicinal herb during collection.

...

"A 20% chance of getting an extra one, haha, not bad, just in time I need to collect a lot of medicinal herbs right now."

After closing the interface, Wang Ming resumed data collection.

"System notification: Congratulations, you have obtained a first-grade spiritual herb - Earth Ginseng Grass".

"System notification: Congratulations, you have obtained a Grade 1 Spirit Herb - Earth Ginseng Grass, and you have also obtained an additional Grade 1 Spirit Herb - Earth Ginseng Grass."

...

Wang Ming continued collecting, and soon all the wild ginseng grass in the area was gone.

Then Wang Ming plopped down on the ground and began refining the Instant Recovery Potion.

Once the potions were ready, Wang Ming put them all up for auction.

At this time, the Earth Ginseng Grass has also been refreshed.

Wang Ming then continued collecting.

Wang Ming stayed there for several hours until his parents called him to have dinner, at which point he finally stopped.

"Phew, let's eat first, then we'll come back."

"However, so much time has passed, how come not a single bottle of instant recovery potion has been sold?"

"Does nobody buy this thing?"

"No, it's not that no one wants to buy it, but that this instant recovery potion is unique to me. They might not even know that such a thing exists."

"After all, even the apothecaries in the main city don't sell instant-recovery potions."

"Looks like we'll have to bleed some money; we need to do some advertising for it."

Wang Ming opened the chat channel, selected the server channel, and then typed a message.

"Server-wide announcement: From [Seize a Chance]: Dear players, hello! Are you still stuck in the newbie village and unable to enter the main city because of the Questioning Heart dungeon? Then take a look at the instant recovery potions sold in the auction house: [Basic Health Instant Recovery Potion] and [Basic Mana Instant Recovery Potion]. One of these potions instantly restores 200 health points, and the other instantly restores 100 mana points. I wish you an easy victory in Questioning Heart..."

Server-wide announcement: From [Seize a Chance]: ......

Server-wide announcement: From [Seize a Chance]: ......

The server loudspeaker works the same as a server-wide announcement; any online player in the China region, regardless of their location, can see it.

Of course, this server megaphone isn't free to use; each message costs 1 gold coin.

However, in order to promote his instant recovery potion, Wang Ming didn't care about those few gold coins.

"System notification: The item you consigned for sale in the auction house - Basic Health Instant Recovery Potion *2 has been sold."

"System notification: The item you consigned for sale in the auction house - Basic Health Regeneration Potion *3 has been sold."

"System notification: The item you consigned for sale in the auction house - Basic Mana Regeneration Potion *2 has been sold."

...

"Hehe, the effects are showing." Less than five minutes after Wang Ming made his announcement, the potion started selling.

However, the medicine was not sold quickly.

"No rush, let the bullets fly a little longer."

"System message: You are exiting the game, please confirm."

"confirm."

After exiting the game, Wang Ming glanced at the time; it was already 7:30 PM.

Wang Ming went to the restroom to take care of personal hygiene before arriving at the restaurant.

"Son, this is not what we agreed on. You're half an hour late."

"Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, something came up in the game and I was a little late. I'll definitely be there on time next time."

Originally, after Wang Ming woke up, he told his parents that he was receiving intravenous nutrition and would not eat with them.

But Wang Ming's parents absolutely refused to agree.

The final decision was that Wang Ming could skip lunch, but he had to eat both breakfast and dinner; otherwise, he wouldn't be allowed to play games.

Left with no other choice, Wang Ming had to agree.

"By the way, Dad, why are you home so early today?"

"You brat, what's wrong? You don't want to see your dad?"

"How could that be? I'm just a little curious."

“Ming’er, your father used to come home every few days because he was worried about you.”

"This has caused many delays for the company, which is why I often have to work overtime."

"Now that you're fully recovered, your dad can handle the company's affairs during the day."

"Yeah, I'll come home earlier every day from now on, haha. Okay, let's eat."

"Okay, sure." Although the nutrient solution can provide nutrition for the whole body, it still falls short compared to delicious food.

Looking at the table full of delicious food, Wang Ming picked up his bowl and began to wolf it down.

"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

"Yes, you guys eat too."

A moment later, Wang Ming showed off three bowls of rice.

"I'm full, Mom and Dad, you can eat now, I'm going to play games."

"Hey, wait a minute, you child, here, Ming'er, this is a new phone I bought for you, take it and use it."

I need a new phone because I need to sell in-game currency.

"Mom, thanks." Wang Ming took the phone, downloaded and logged into the Huaxia Mobile Banking app, and then returned to the game.
