"Erzhu, didn't you say last time that you wanted to expand? I bought a piece of land nearby, and I've almost finalized the deal. I've arranged to sign the cooperation agreement today, but I'm busy. Are you free?"
Just as Liu Gang and the others were being taken away, Er Zhu received a call from Old Tang. Listening to Old Tang's cautious and probing words, the surrounding crowd looked at Er Zhu with admiration.
Although they didn't know who was on the phone, they could tell from the content that this old man was a big shot from a wealthy family!
Who could afford land normally!
Let alone the old man, even young people wouldn't dare to think about it!
"Okay, then give me the address, and I'll go take a look." Er Zhu nodded slightly as he looked at the antique shop.
He had just said it casually, but he didn't expect Old Tang to take it to heart. Right, he heard from Tang Jie last time that he was sick. He wondered if he was feeling any better.
Just as Er Zhu was lost in thought, he suddenly heard a slight cough. The villagers also heard the sound and turned their heads with Er Zhu.
"Uncle Liu is awake!"
Sun Erniang was the first to run over. As she helped Uncle Liu up, her eyes turned red as she exclaimed.
Uncle Liu was indeed awake, and he looked very well. He even looked better than when he was young!
Seeing this, the villagers all rushed over. They tucked Uncle Liu in and asked him questions volubly. Uncle Liu was full of gratitude, wanting to say something but unable to articulate it for a moment.
"Uncle Liu, your illness is cured. Don't worry," Er Zhu also walked over, gently patting Uncle Liu's hand.
"Thank you, Er Zhu. You are my savior. Without you, I would have waited to die!"
Hearing this, Uncle Liu's eyes welled up with tears. He hugged Er Zhu tightly, filled with immense excitement and joy!
Although he had said that dying sooner was better, no one knew that he actually wanted to live more. Back then, he just had no hope, so he could only comfort himself like that. But now, he not only saw hope but had also been cured!
"Erzhu, the miracle doctor!"
"Erzhu, the miracle doctor!"
"Erzhu, the miracle doctor!"
...
Someone, who knew who, raised their fist and shouted slogans. Instantly, the other villagers also tacitly raised their fists and shouted. The slogans were loud and echoed in the sky for a long time.
At the same time, at Er Zhu's doorstep, Tang Jing sat with a planning proposal in her hands, looking out anxiously.
She didn't know where Er Zhu had gone. She had originally intended to leave, but thinking of the benefits of being with Er Zhu, she could only wait.
This was his home, and she didn't believe he wouldn't come back!
Moreover, she was Old Tang's granddaughter. Even if Er Zhu disliked her, he wouldn't leave her waiting for the sake of her grandfather!
Thinking this, Tang Jing felt confident again. She sat at the door like a fool. Although the season was no longer cold, the wind was still fierce!
After instructing Uncle Liu a few times, Er Zhu left. As soon as he reached the entrance, he ran into Liu Lao Er, a villager.
"Erzhu, hurry home. There's a woman sitting at your door. She's been there for almost an hour. If you don't go back soon, she'll freeze to death."
Liu Lao Er pointed in the direction of Er Zhu's house and reminded him kindly, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
It was good to be rich and know so many beautiful women, especially the one sitting at the door today. She was even better than any who had come to see Er Zhu before, especially her figure!
"Alright, I know. Thank you, Brother Liu Er." Er Zhu was stunned, suddenly remembering Tang Jing, whom he had met at the door. He nodded slightly to Liu Lao Er and then turned to walk towards the village entrance.
That Tang Jing was truly persistent. Since she wanted to wait, then let her wait there!
For the first time since he had money, Er Zhu took a public bus to town, while Tang Jing still sat foolishly in the cold wind waiting for Er Zhu.
Looking at the boundless land before him, Er Zhu nodded slightly.
This piece of land was indeed good, very close to the antique street. They could merge them later to form a separate area.
"What are you looking at, you poor wretch? The big shot is coming soon, so hurry up and get out of here! Don't delay my business!"
Just then, a man's harsh voice came from afar. Er Zhu turned his head and saw a man with a cunning and sinister look running towards him.
If he guessed correctly, this guy was Liu Bo, the owner of this land.
"What are you looking at? Are you talking to yourself? The buyer of this land is Old Tang. The consequences of offending Old Tang are very severe!"
Seeing that Er Zhu still hadn't left, Liu Bo became even more angry and anxious. He even wanted to kick Er Zhu, but seeing Er Zhu's cold eyes, he inexplicably felt scared and withdrew his leg.
"Hurry up and leave! The Tang family is a second-rate wealthy family. You won't even know how you died!"
Although Liu Bo retracted his leg, his anger did not lessen. He kept looking around and urged impatiently.
Old Tang had said that the person he sent would arrive soon, but they were already half an hour late, and not a soul had appeared!
Liu Bo hated people who were late the most, but he didn't dare to offend Old Tang's people.
"Stop looking. Old Tang is busy today, so I'll talk to you about this land."
Seeing Liu Bo fuming, Er Zhu pouted speechlessly, his eyes scanning the open space before him, and said calmly.
"You? Forget it. Old Tang said that the person coming is his closest associate. Look at your shabby appearance, how could you possibly be worthy of speaking like this to Old Tang!"
Liu Bo was stunned and looked Er Zhu up and down with disdain, his eyes flashing with uncontrollable mockery.
"Okay, then let's make a bet. If I am Old Tang's partner, I'll pay whatever price you name for this land. If not, you give me the land for free!"
Seeing Liu Bo's contemptuous gaze, Er Zhu was too lazy to argue with him and thought of a good idea.
One would always bargain when buying things, but he hated that the most. To reduce some trouble, it was better to make a bet.
Although Liu Bo might ask for an exorbitant price, he wouldn't have the chance!
Liu Bo's eyes darted around as he carefully examined Er Zhu, his mind racing and constantly pondering.
This method was not bad. He could talk more later and teach this kid a good lesson!
"Alright, but don't regret it. And the payment must be made in full, with no delays!"
Liu Bo nodded, then suddenly seemed to remember something and added.
"Deal!" Before Liu Bo could finish speaking, Er Zhu agreed, and at the same time, the light on his phone screen in his pocket dimmed.
