I will practice more in the United States

Chapter 3 Supermarket Shopping
He found that the skill [Riding] appeared at the bottom of his panel.

Li Ang quickly understood that it seemed that the skills added after obtaining the panel counted.

While acquiring skills, Li Ang felt that the bicycle under him suddenly became in tune with him.

It was as if I was familiar with every structure of it and became more comfortable controlling it.

At the same time, he also noticed that his physical fitness points increased by 0.03 compared to before going out, and his strength also increased by 0.01.

"Can this level of riding really strengthen the body so much under normal circumstances?"

Li Ang was a little surprised, but since he was getting stronger, the more the better.

After being rejected, Silla pursed her lips, her eyes stayed on him for a few seconds, and then nodded. Her habit was to respect everyone's choice.

"Remember to contact me if you need anything."

This mature and charming woman made a phone gesture to Li Ang, and then stepped on the accelerator. The Ford Raptor she was driving made a huge roar and soon disappeared.

After resting for a while and solidifying [Cycling] as his own skill, Li Ang's bicycle returned to its original speed, even faster.

He could feel that his efficiency in exerting force had also improved, and he was no longer as tired from pedaling.

About thirty minutes later, Li Ang finally arrived at a large supermarket in Hillsborough.

This short distance of 20 kilometers may be just a warm-up level for road racing enthusiasts with professional equipment.

But for the current Li Ang, it was almost life-threatening, and it took him nearly 50 minutes in total.

He parked his bicycle and blew the air conditioner at the entrance of the supermarket for a while before going in.

What Li Ang feels about the large supermarkets here in the United States is, in one word, big.

Whether it’s the area, the shelves, or the weight of the products.

Correspondingly, the various layouts and placements are also rougher than those in China.

This is mainly because the United States is characterized by a vast land and sparsely populated areas, and there are very few supermarkets or wet markets opening at home.

Therefore, when an average family goes out to purchase goods, they usually need at least ten days and a half.

Basically every household has a car, and the number of pickup trucks is high for this reason.

Li Ang didn't look at the snacks and drinks and went straight to the fresh food area.

His current budget is limited, so it is naturally best to make his own diet. This is not only relatively healthier, but also reduces a lot of costs.

The red beef on the shelves only costs $5.9 per pound.

He also specifically asked how much one pound weighed. When converted into domestic units, it was about 1 pound = 0.9 kilograms.

Li Ang picked a big one, only more than twenty dollars.

In the field of physical exercise, beef is an absolute consumer because of its high-quality protein.

If this beef is cooked in a stir-fry way, you can probably eat a lot of meals.

But if it is fried or roasted, it actually won’t last long.

60 large eggs, $11.99, you can get two boxes.

Needless to say, eggs are nutritious and cheap, and they taste delicious no matter how you cook them.

For 2.99 dollars, a gallon of pure milk, which is 3.78 liters, can be drunk as water. Get two buckets.

He skipped the pork ones without much thought.

The taste of many pork products abroad is quite difficult to describe because the boars are not castrated.

In addition, the price of beef is not much more expensive than pork, so the main consumption is still beef.

The prices in the vegetable section are slightly more expensive than in China.

Especially with the word "organic", the price is even more expensive than some meat. Based on the principle of nutrition and health, Li Ang picked some vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, spinach, and some seasonings.

After much hesitation, he bought some "junk food" such as Coke, potato chips, ice cream, and chocolate.

Indulging in happiness was secondary. Mainly, he wanted to test whether the breakthrough points obtained by different foods would be different.

In addition, Li Ang also took care of some daily necessities and daily clothing.

When he came to the checkout counter, the shopping cart he was pushing was already full. After settling the bill, it cost him nearly three hundred dollars.

After paying the money, his savings fell below the three thousand mark.

But Li Ang knows that these expenses are necessary. Just like when you do business, you have to spend some capital, right?
Once he has the ability, this little money will be just a drop of money.

Li Ang was holding the three largest shopping bags and stood at the entrance of the supermarket, looking at his little broken bicycle with some melancholy.

On the way back, there was an extra weight of at least 40 kilograms, and I didn’t know who would be able to bear it first, him or his bicycle.

Not only did the extra weight increase the resistance of his bicycle, the two bags also made the handlebars of the bicycle extra heavy.

When I got home, the sun had already set.

When he went out, Li Ang, who still felt a little full, was already hungry.

I took a piece of chocolate, stuffed it into my mouth three or two times, and drank it down with a large glass of milk, which finally stopped my hunger.

He didn't know whether it was because he was too hungry, or because his physique had increased, but he found that his appetite seemed to have increased.

According to the previous bird's stomach, this large glass of milk will make you at least 60-70% full. If you have another piece of chocolate, you can even save today's dinner.

But now, he was only four-quarters full at most, so at least he could have another Big Mac.

[Get breakthrough point 0.03]

The points gained from eating this time were more than he expected. However, this time, Li Ang did not use the breakthrough point for physical fitness, but instead focused on the skills he acquired in the afternoon.

skill:
【Cycling】39/100 (entry)
In the process of coming back, [Cycling] gained another 34 proficiency points, and combined with the mileage, almost every kilometer ridden can increase two proficiency points.

Under the control of Li Ang's thoughts, the breakthrough point was reduced by 0.01. Correspondingly, [Riding] proficiency increased by 5 points.

“Not a good deal!”

Li Ang shook his head and stopped trying, giving all the remaining breakthrough points to [Physique].

Although his physique can be improved through exercise, for now, the higher his [Physique] is, the easier it is to obtain the [Breakthrough Point], so [Physique] is still the most important attribute.

Today's dinner is boiled broccoli, pan-fried beef, and two poached eggs.

If it is made as a fitness meal with less salt and less oil, the taste will probably not be much better.

It's a pity that others are playing with natural fitness, while Li Ang is playing with a little bit of fitness, and naturally it tastes as delicious as possible.

After dinner, Li Ang continued to do aerobic exercise for an hour to free up his stomach, and drank a glass of milk and two eggs before going to bed.

After this operation, he contributed a full 0.08 breakthrough points, and at the same time, his physical fitness increased naturally by 0.02.

The most obvious change brought about by his improved physique is that the large purple bump on his head has turned into a dark purple mark, and the swelling has completely disappeared.

Judging from his experience, the recovery speed of ordinary people is definitely not that fast.

This can only show that while he raised the upper limit of his physical fitness, he also restored his body.

When it was dawn, before Li Ang got up, his younger brother got up first.

This made him feel a little emotional in his heart, he's back, he's all back.

As he was getting dressed, Li Ang suddenly heard someone calling his name outside the window.
