"You've decided to sell me this gem?" Yan Menghan's face lit up with joy. He quickly took the gem, as if afraid Lu Fan would change his mind.
"Of course. I'm planning to build a villa, so I want to sell it," Lu Fan said with a slight smile.
"Oh? Build a villa? Where!? Do you need my help?" Yan Menghan suddenly looked up and asked.
"It would be great if you could help! I want to build the best, most beautiful villa in our village. I was just wondering how to find a designer to help me with the plans!" Lu Fan said eagerly.
"In your village?" Yan Menghan was clearly disappointed. He had expected this young man to acquire land in the provincial capital, or at least the county town, to build a villa. To find out it was in a remote village showed a lack of vision and ambition.
"You have some money now. How about I help you acquire land in the provincial capital, or an even better location, to build your villa!?" Yan Menghan suddenly asked.
"Thank you, Brother Yan! I haven't thought about moving to the city yet. I want to help everyone in our village become prosperous. I originally planned to develop tourism, but... I don't want our village's most beautiful environment to be harmed. So, I want to turn our village into a villa village! I'm the first in the village to build a villa, so I want the best! To boost the morale of the villagers!" Lu Fan said.
Lu Fan's words were actually influenced by Liu Ruyan's earlier statement. Since Liu Ruyan liked the beauty of the place and didn't want the environment polluted, he wouldn't let the environment of Twelve Bay Village be damaged.
"Oh!" Yan Menghan nodded thoughtfully. The reason he had come to such a small county town was not only to resolve some matters but also to escape worldly disturbances and find a quiet place to stay for a while. He hadn't expected this young man in front of him to already be seeking detachment from the mundane world before even fully entering it.
"Since you want to turn the entire village into a villa village, you need to consider and design it comprehensively. Alright! I'll introduce you to a designer," Yan Menghan said after some thought.
"Thank you, Brother Yan!" Lu Fan said gratefully. Although he didn't know who Yan Menghan truly was, he knew this person was definitely not ordinary. Whoever he introduced would undoubtedly be excellent.
"Brother Yan! Your tea is very precious, and I don't have anything as valuable to give you. I brought two peaches. Please try them!" Lu Fan flipped his wrist, and a bag of fruit appeared in his hand.
"Hahaha! Then thank you!" Yan Menghan burst into laughter. A bag of fruit might seem insignificant, but he wasn't that superficial.
Lu Fan got up to leave. Yan Menghan casually placed the fruit aside and slowly savored the hundred-year-old Pu'er tea.
"Young Master! These peaches shouldn't be in season. I heard that only Yi Xiang Ge Hotel sells them in the early morning, and they are almost always sold out instantly. Many people have to pre-order the day before to get them," Elder Chang suddenly walked in and said, seeing the fruit on the coffee table.
"Oh!" Yan Menghan looked at the bag of fruit again.
Elder Chang immediately took the fruit out to wash it and then brought it back. Yan Menghan picked up a peach and took a bite. He was instantly stunned by the peach's deliciousness.
Over the years, he had eaten almost the best of everything. Let alone ordinary fruits, even rare fruits from all over the world and imported fruits, he had tried them all. But he had never tasted such a delicious peach.
"Elder Chang! You try one!" Yan Menghan said to Elder Chang.
Elder Chang also took a peach, took a bite, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
"It seems we should go and see that small mountain village!" Yan Menghan suddenly said.
"Young Master! I'll make arrangements right away!" Elder Chang said eagerly.
"No need. Lu Fan asked me to help find a designer!" Yan Menghan said with a slight smile.
...
Inside the Bu Fan Fruit Supermarket. Lu Fan handed a bank card to Fan Xue'er. "Xue'er! Your jewelry has been sold. This is two hundred and twenty million. Keep it safe! From now on, you're a rich woman!"
"This... so much money!" Fan Xue'er's hands trembled slightly as she held the bank card. This was over two hundred million; she had instantly become a rich woman!
"Lu Fan! I need to go back to the provincial capital. The agency informed me that Grandpa's house has been sold. I need to go back to handle the procedures," Fan Xue'er said after a while, calming her excited emotions, looking up at Lu Fan.
"Alright! I'll accompany you tomorrow," Lu Fan nodded.
"Mmm!" Fan Xue'er's heart suddenly felt sweet, and she responded.
*Ring, ring...* Suddenly, a phone rang. Lu Fan saw it was Bai Xuemei calling and quickly answered.
"Hello! Xiao Fan, where are you? Those people who bought your 'broken' pills are here again. Hurry back and send them away!" Bai Xuemei said angrily on the phone.
Lu Fan looked back and saw that across the street, at the entrance of Yi Xiang Ge Hotel, Lu Guan and a dozen other people were gathered.
"Okay! I'll be right back!" Lu Fan said and walked out of the fruit supermarket.
"Little Doctor... Little Doctor! Heh heh! We've brought you some new customers! Uh, can we buy a few more Jùshén Dān pills from you?" As soon as they saw Lu Fan, Lu Guan and the others surrounded him, smiling.
"Damn it! Each of you brought a new person? Are you trying to take advantage of me? Alright, alright! Since you're so thoughtful, I'll give you a discount this time!" Lu Fan glanced at everyone. It was the same group from last time, each with a new person by their side. Hmph! These guys were really clever to come up with such a method. But... hehe! This was also what he wanted!
As per the old rule, four hundred per pill for those who brought people, and five hundred per pill for new customers. After the transaction, Lu Guan and the others left happily. Lu Fan casually stuffed a few thousand yuan into his pocket and entered the hotel. Now, a few thousand yuan really didn't mean much to him!
"Master! Why didn't you sell them more? Not making money when it's available isn't your style!" Xinxin walked over, looking at Lu Fan with confusion.
"Xinxin! Don't talk nonsense. Master treats and cures patients, and many times he doesn't charge a cent. How can not making money be not your Master's style? Master is truly saving lives and healing the wounded! His medical ethics are noble!" Lin Fang glared at Xinxin.
"Yes, Master is a savior!" Xinxin stuck out her tongue.
"I wouldn't go as far as to call myself a savior. However, if I sold them a lot of Jùshén Dān, who would help me advertise? Who would help me bring in new customers?" Lu Fan pouted and then went upstairs.
"Ugh... big pervert!" Xinxin made another face. It was no wonder this guy was so arrogant with Jùshén Dān in his possession, and that he could play with two at once. He just didn't expect Bai Xuemei and Fan Xue'er to... Hmph! Rich people really know how to play and seek thrills!
