Lu Fan's car slowly drove down Qingfeng Ridge.
The four patriarchs of the Tai Chi Sect watched the sedan with beaming smiles, waving their hands incessantly until the car disappeared from sight. Then, looking at the pills in their hands, they were filled with joy.
The Hong family patriarch said that this small pill had made their ancestor, who was on the verge of death, radiant, and could extend his life by at least two to three years. Wasn't this thing an elixir of immortality!
They didn't know that although this was an ordinary body-tempering pill refined by Lu Fan, it had indeed helped them more than a little. Their fifty million for each person was not wasted.
In the sedan, Hong Xiaojiao's head drooped, her lips pouting so much that a donkey could be tied to them. She sat in the car without saying a word.
Lu Fan drove at full speed, ignoring her.
Time ticked by, and Hong Xiaojiao finally couldn't hold back. She suddenly glanced at Lu Fan and asked, "Little brother! Why don't you touch me? Are you... are you not capable in that area?"
Lu Fan's car immediately swerved, almost plunging into a ditch.
"I know you want to repay my kindness, but there are many ways to do that," Lu Fan said, rolling his eyes.
"But isn't this what you men like the most!" Hong Xiaojiao pouted.
"I have a wife!" Lu Fan said calmly. He already felt guilty for not being with Liu Ruyan during their honeymoon and didn't want to do anything that would betray her further.
"Is your wife very beautiful? Is she very skilled in martial arts? And is her alcohol tolerance also very high!?" Hong Xiaojiao suddenly leaned over, full of curiosity, and asked incessantly.
...
On the road leading to Twelve Gout Village, Wang Yan happily drove back. In the passenger seat of the car was a "Model Worker" honorary certificate and a large red flower.
Today, at the Model Worker conference in town, she had been named the Model Worker for the entire town and had even received a red flower. This was something she had never dreamed of before.
"Wang Yan...! Wang Yan...!" As soon as she reached the village entrance, a black sedan caught up from behind, and a somewhat obese, bald middle-aged man poked his head out of the car and called out Wang Yan's name.
Wang Yan quickly stopped the car.
"Town Mayor Fu! Are you calling me?" Wang Yan rolled down her car window and asked in surprise.
The bald, fat man in the car was Town Mayor Fu Changyuan, and he wasn't very familiar with Wang Yan. Because the village was very busy, Wang Yan rarely went to town for meetings. Even when she did, she sat in the back and left after the meeting. If there were any matters, they would be handled by phone.
However, Twelve Gout Village had recently become famous. A super villa had been built, and the entire village had started building villas. This had even driven Eleven Gout Village to become prosperous. Any one of these things would have made a town mayor pay close attention to this small village chief.
After several meetings, Fu Changyuan was even more shocked by Wang Yan's beauty when he met her in person. This young woman was too beautiful. And she knew how to dress up. She revealed more and wore less. She was the type that made Wu Lao Er's body tremble.
But Wang Yan had said she was busy during their few work meetings, which had made Fu Changyuan a bit displeased. He had given Wang Yan a Model Worker quota this time, thinking it would make this young woman happy, and then she would express her gratitude and they could have a good talk. However, she had driven away before the meeting even ended.
"Village Chief Wang! You're running too fast. There's still a banquet in town tonight! All the village cadres from the entire town are attending, and you can't be absent? What's the matter? Are you not giving me, the town mayor, any face?" Fu Changyuan said with a hint of displeasure.
"Town Mayor Fu! It's just a meal, and you've come all the way here to call me. However, the village is really too busy, and it can't function without me!" Wang Yan said with some difficulty.
"What's so busy about it? There are over twenty villages in the town, and no village chief is like you. You never wait for meetings to end, and you never attend meals. Your attitude clearly shows that you have an opinion of me, the town mayor!" Fu Changyuan immediately said with a grim face.
"Alright then! I'll hand over the village affairs and go right away," Wang Yan said quickly, seeing that she couldn't refuse.
"Very well! Once you've made arrangements, you don't need to drive. I'll wait for you here. I'll have the driver take you back after the meal. By the way, I've never been to your village before. I heard that your village is quite impressive now, with villas being built!" Fu Changyuan looked at Twelve Gout Village not far away, saw the three-story buildings of Lu Fan's villa from a distance, and his eyes flashed with a blue light.
"Oh! Alright then! Please rest at our village branch. I'll arrange the village's planting tasks and be back shortly." Wang Yan said and quickly drove into the village.
The major hotels in the provincial capital and county town would send their order lists the day before. Wang Yan had to arrange for farmers to prepare the goods according to the lists and load them for delivery early in the morning. She also had to arrange what crops the farmers with vacant land should plant next. Therefore, Wang Yan was indeed very busy.
This was even after she had assigned the livestock tasks to Li Mantang of Eleven Gout Village, otherwise, she would have been too busy to handle it alone, even if she worked herself to death.
Fu Changyuan had his driver drive into Twelve Gout Village, and the sedan slowly arrived in front of Lu Fan's grand villa. Fu Changyuan was instantly dumbfounded. He had never seen such an impressive villa before. There was such a wealthy person in Fengyuan Town, and he, the town mayor, didn't even know about it!?
The car stopped, and Fu Changyuan got out, wanting to go inside the villa to take a good look. The villa was truly beautiful. He would have to build one like it in the future.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" Suddenly, a big man stood at the main entrance, blocking the way.
"This is the Town Mayor of Fengyuan Town," Fu Changyuan's driver quickly said.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" Qiangzi rolled his eyes. Weren't these two idiots? Didn't they understand what I asked?
"I am the Town Mayor!" Fu Changyuan was furious. He emphasized again that he was the Town Mayor. In the entire Fengyuan Town, who heard the word "Town Mayor" and didn't immediately smile like a lickspittle? Wasn't this kid an idiot? Couldn't he understand words?
"I don't care who you are, I'm only asking who you're looking for! Don't say you're the Town Mayor, even if the County Mayor came, it would be useless!" Qiangzi said with a cold snort.
Now that Mo Xiong didn't allow them to cause trouble, these people who had been fighting and killing in the martial world had also restrained themselves a lot. If it were in the past, Qiangzi would have slapped him across the face long ago. Town Mayor! What was a Town Mayor worth!
"Good! Good boy! No one in Fengyuan Town dares to talk to me like this! Xiao Li, ask them properly, whose house is this? Even the gatekeeper is so arrogant!" Fu Changyuan said angrily to the driver beside him.
"Town Mayor! The owner of this house is called Lu Fan!" At this moment, the driver quickly reminded Fu Changyuan in his ear.
"Lu Fan? Who is Lu Fan? Get Wang Yan here. Who approved the land for this villa? Demolish all the illegally built, shoddy, and non-compliant structures!" Fu Changyuan shouted angrily.
"Heh heh! You want to demolish my young master's villa? Get lost!" Qiangzi couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly slapped him.
*Slap...* Fu Changyuan spun around three times on the spot, feeling a burning sensation on his face, with stars swimming before his eyes.
