Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter Twenty-Five

Seeing Long Xiaoshan break such a thick piece of wood with a single punch,

the villagers were all startled, and Long Shuixian's face turned somewhat pale. If such a thick log could be broken with a single punch, it could kill a person if it really hit them.

"Fine, I'll just see how you're going to repay the money in three days!"

Long Shuixian left these harsh words behind and walked away somewhat flustered.

After Long Shuixian left, the other villagers quickly dispersed as well.

With the courtyard emptied, He Xiangyue came over to Long Xiaoshan and chided him, "Little Xiaoshan, how could you make such a claim? Three days to repay the debt, and we owe over thirty thousand. Where are we supposed to find that much money?"

Long Dashan, smoking a rolled cigarette, didn't say anything, but he seemed dissatisfied with Long Xiaoshan's declaration.

They were honest and upright people, not skilled in lying.

If they couldn't repay the money in three days, how would they be able to hold their heads up in the village after that?

Long Xiaoshan smiled and said, "Dad, Mom, have you forgotten the abilities the Celestials passed onto me? Ergouzi was right about one thing; our shrimps shouldn't be inferior to the Spirit Shrimps. Those big shrimps could normally sell for over a hundred each in the county. How much do you think the shrimps in the tank are worth?"

"What, over a hundred each?"

He Xiangyue was startled; to her, a hundred yuan was already a lot of money, enough for half a month of toiling in the fields. She couldn't believe that a single shrimp could sell for over a hundred.

"Xiaoshan, you're not talking nonsense, are you?" Long Dashan also added, "Then we've eaten half a piglet for lunch?"

Long Xiaoshan gave a slight smile.

He knew that his parents had been cooped up in Xiaoshan village all their lives and had little exposure; the thought of shrimps costing a hundred yuan seemed sky-high to them. They had no idea that in the big cities, top-quality abalone and king crabs could sell for thousands or even tens of thousands.

He had tasted the shrimps grown with Spiritual Liquid at noon.

Although he had never eaten top-quality Spirit Shrimps, he was certain that even those couldn't compare to his shrimps. Could the top-quality Spirit Shrimps make his strength improve slightly just by eating them?

Could they make his body brim with energy?

These were by no means ordinary shrimps.

How could something raised by Immortal Treasures be ordinary? In his eyes, these were Spirit Shrimps!

He said they were worth a hundred each, but that was a conservative estimate; he feared they wouldn't believe him if he quoted a higher price.

But he felt that the Spirit Shrimps were definitely worth more than a hundred each. As for how much they could sell for, he was not sure at the moment because only those who had tasted the Spirit Shrimps understood their benefits.

The current problem was that he needed to find a way to market and sell the Spirit Shrimps he had on hand.

To sell such shrimps, it wasn't something that ordinary small diners or restaurants could afford; they also wouldn't recognize the value. Although Long Xiaoshan didn't have any experience in business, he had read many books, including various marketing classics. He knew he needed to find a strong and discerning buyer to sell his goods to.

Where could one find such a person?

He had just come back from prison and had no connections whatsoever.

A spark of inspiration flashed in Long Xiaoshan's mind.

Su Wan!

The Lily Hotel where she worked, wasn't it the largest hotel in the county?

He had been there once; the two lower floors housed a large restaurant that hosted various banquets. It looked rather upscale. With the hotel's strength and class, it would be a suitable buyer. Moreover, he knew Su Wan and could communicate with her.

Long Xiaoshan took out a business card, which belonged to Su Wan, with her phone number on it. Since Long Xiaoling worked at the Lily Hotel, Su Wan had given him the card.

Without a phone at home, Long Xiaoshan went to the village's general store, where there was a public telephone.

He dialed Su Wan's number directly.

In Niu Y County, the top floor of the Lily Hotel was typically where the presidential suite or the best rooms in a hotel would be found. But at the top of the Lily Hotel, there was a Sky Garden, extremely private, accessible only via a dedicated elevator within the hotel. It was rumored that the top floor of the Lily Hotel was the boudoir of the county's most beautiful and mysterious woman, Black Lily.

Everyone was curious to glimpse the mystery of the top floor, but it was never open to the public. It was said that a big shot from the city had once boasted about spending a night on the top floor of the Lily Hotel. However, not only did the big shot fail to achieve his goal, but he also died suddenly and unexpectedly.

This added a cruel shade to the mystery and beauty of Black Lily.

At this moment, inside the rooftop Sky Garden, amidst a sea of colorful blooms and lush trees, an exceptional, stunning woman in a black bikini lounge lazily in a rattan rocking chair. She was looking with great interest at an orchid on a small wooden table beside her. The orchid was growing quite luxuriously; its golden petals quivering on the stem like butterflies, bewitchingly beautiful.

"Little Wan, that's quite impressive. You've actually managed to keep the Shorthairy Antenoron alive, and it's even a nine-petal variety, the most top-grade in appearance. Selling it at the Orchid Trade Fair wouldn't be a problem for a million." The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows, stared at Su Wan standing nearby, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to know how to cultivate orchids. Little Wan, you've given me quite a surprise."

"Chairman, I don't understand anything about orchids. I have no idea what happened. I just placed it on the windowsill and watered it every morning. Yesterday, I thought the orchid was going to die, but this morning, it blossomed so beautifully," Su Wan hurriedly explained.

"Little Wan, lying in front of me isn't good. Shorthairy Antenoron is one of the most difficult orchids to care for; very delicate. Ordinary people can't keep it alive. I know you wanted to surprise me. Don't worry, I won't ask you too much about it," the beautiful woman said as she stretched her arms, lazily arching her back.

Like a water snake, she stretched out a beautiful and infinitely charming curve.

In the sunlight, her translucent skin was dazzling, every part of her body seeming finely sculpted like a jade artifact, making even the bewitching Shorthairy Antenoron beside her seem dim in comparison.

Even Su Wan, a woman herself, couldn't help but feel her face flush and her heart race, daring not to look any longer.

The woman stood up, extended her slender, shallot-like fingers, and lifted Su Wan's chin, cooingly said, "Little Wan, you've given me such a big surprise. How should I reward you?"

"Chairman, no, I don't need any reward..." Su Wan stuttered, her body stiffening.

"I told you, when we're alone, don't call me Chairman. You can call me Lily or Shangguan," the beautiful woman's red lips were beside Su Wan's ear, her voice lazy, as her onion-like fingers slid down her throat.

Su Wan was on the verge of tears.

Suddenly, a cellphone ringtone rang out.

As if granted a reprieve, Su Wan hastily jumped back two steps, fumbling to pull out her cellphone from her jacket pocket and said, "Chairman, I need to take this call first."
