“I’ve already bought the ‘medicine’ I mentioned before, which will make that employee get all worked up quickly,” Li Lechen said frankly.
Huo Jiujian didn't actually understand what "duang" meant, but given their previous conversation, he quickly figured it out.
But since he had never seen it before, he didn't know what the "medicine" Li Lechen was talking about looked like.
Items from the exclusive zone are extremely rare.
But what I see before me... food? 'Medicine'? This is an art piece, you know!
"These things you have? They're probably just some inferior compounds containing a lot of polyvinyl chloride, and the level of contamination is even more serious than the polystyrene packaging you sold before."
Li Lechen was speechless.
"It's not convenient for me to show you the thing right now, but it works very well here for the needs you mentioned."
"If it's inconvenient for me to see it, that's fine too. Just tell me its main ingredients, and I'll check if it complies with the relevant regulations."
"How could I...?"
Li Lechen was about to ask how he could tell? If a judgment was absolutely necessary, it would require showing the box; once it was out, Huo Jiujian could also make a judgment. But there were two people nearby; should he make an excuse to leave?
"Li Lechen, you're too slow," Huang Yingying suddenly said. "You've been picking for so long and this is all you've got?"
"I... the lighting here is bad, and my eyes are getting tired from picking them out." Li Lechen quickly made up an excuse, "I'll go outside to pick them out, and then bring them in."
Multitasking really does seriously affect efficiency, and I'm not a genius.
However, Li Lechen also thought of a smart assistant. Although it was in a completely passive mode, the daily usage right of 30 coins was still there.
Sure enough, even in fully passive mode, it can still answer questions quickly and accurately.
"The main ingredient is sildenafil citrate," Li Lechen told Huo Jiujian.
"I've never heard of this chemical substance before," Huo Jiujian shook his head.
You're right if you haven't heard of it! It seems this thing really didn't exist two thousand years later.
"Have you ever heard of a condition called purpura?" Li Lechen suddenly thought of the man in the adult store.
No, not at all.
"What if a professional doctor would know?"
"Everyone is a professional. If it's not in 'Ten Trillion Whys' or if a smart assistant doesn't know it, then no one else will know it."
After saying that, Huo Jiujian asked in return, "Why are you suddenly asking this question? Are you also investigating the skin diseases of the residents in the quarantine area?"
"..."
Li Lechen knew that Huo Jiujian had let it slip. It was rare for him to remain mysterious in front of a future person who was almost able to read minds.
So, following the conversation, I asked in return, "Aren't you also trying to grow garlic?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Jiujian exclaimed, "What did you find out?!"
"Allicin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that can inhibit a variety of bacteria," Li Lechen said, looking every bit the studious type.
Actually, after Huo Jiujian asked for garlic seeds, Li Lechen searched for the uses of garlic on Baidu. Besides being used as a seasoning, garlic's most direct function is its antibacterial properties.
Unfortunately, after watching it once, I only remember that allicin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic; I don't remember anything else.
But this already surprised Huo Jiujian.
Huo Jiujian was certain that Kang Shuaifu had poisoned the circulating water, and he suspected that the erythematous skin disease in the isolation area was mainly related to the circulating water.
This is a point that Huo Jiujian learned from his own experience.
For over a hundred years, Huo Jiujian lived in the quarantine zone, so like everyone else there, he had irregular red patches on his face and body. Therefore, he believed the government's explanation that the residents' poor skin condition was due to the unpleasant environment of the quarantine zone.
Later, Huo Jiujian became a resident of the safe zone because of his involvement in advertising.
Because of his frugality, despite the many restrictions in the safe zone, including different daily spending limits depending on the area he lived in, Huo Jiujian never spent money on plant oxygen and natural water that he considered unworthy. He even resold the bottle of Class V water that the safe zone gave him for free every day.
So, after a period of time, the comparison became clear.
Huo Jiujian's face and body were still covered with irregular red spots, while the skin of those who immigrated to the safe zone at the same time as him gradually became healthier.
Later, Huo Jiujian obtained permanent residency in the safe zone, and was entitled to eight free bottles of Class V water and 3 liters of natural oxygen every day.
At first, Huo Jiujian couldn't bear to part with the Class V water and natural oxygen, so he directly resold them. But later he found that even though he had moved to an area that was said to have the best environment in the world, and all the permanent residents of the safe zone around him had healthy skin, his condition had not improved at all.
Therefore, the environment is definitely not the cause of irregular red patches on the skin.
Huo Jiujian experimented on himself in this way, trying to grow plants in the safe cabin, trying to breathe natural oxygen, and trying to eat naturally grown fruits and vegetables occasionally. Later, he drank Class V water, and the irregular red spots gradually faded away.
For the next few decades, Huo Jiujian secretly researched circulating water.
Of course, Huo Jiujian didn't know what this skin disease with irregular red patches was called, and it was just a name, and there was no need to know it.
As for the possibility that garlic might neutralize this toxin in circulating water, Huo Jiujian's opinion was only preliminary. This was because he had once helped a smart company with a large-scale chip recycling operation to remove any information about "garlic."
