Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

```

This time, Xia Liu knew the ropes. After finishing his meal, he went out, telling the girls he was heading to Li Zhong's place.

In reality, he truly intended to visit Li Zhong, and while he was at it, to take cover just in case the girls decided to barge in on him while he was bathing, which would be utterly terrifying.

Ever since his encounter with Zhang Qing, his willpower had been getting weaker and weaker. He really worried that his desires would overwhelm him and he'd end up sleeping with the two of them.

Li Zhong's household was buzzing with excitement that night. Li Dazhuang's wife had lived in a remote place, having been rarely happy since marrying Li Dazhuang.

But now things had changed. Li Dazhuang was making twenty thousand a month, and Li Zhong and Auntie Li were bringing in several thousand a day. Just give it a few more months, and they'd have hundreds of thousands!

In a nutshell, marrying into Osmanthus Village was definitely a blessing earned in a past life.

Xia Liu's arrival added to the lively atmosphere at Li Zhong's home—the villagers of Osmanthus Village would never forget that their current prosperity was all thanks to Xia Liu!

Li Zhong poured Xia Liu a bowl of Osmanthus Wine, and he, along with Li Dazhuang, downed it in unison.

At the table, Xia Liu arranged a job for Li Dazhuang. It was a simple one: driving, and helping out when he was idle.

After understanding the situation, Li Dazhuang felt a bit down. Just for this bit of work, he was drawing a salary of twenty thousand a month—it was pretty frightening.

The next morning, Xia Liu went up to the hilltop to check things out and was pleased to find that the chickens had grown even larger. After filling his car with oysters, he took Li Dazhuang with him to the county.

He decided that from now on, he'd hand over the delivery duties to Li Dazhuang. This trip was just to let Li Dazhuang get the hang of the process and to set him up with a delivery truck.

Having learned from his past experiences, Xia Liu wasn't going to sell his vehicle at that used car dealership anymore; they were all dodgy cars.

But he couldn't find that dealership again anyway; after the last incident, Chen Jin had led people to knock it out of business.

Eventually, Xia Liu bought a delivery truck, eighty percent new, from a private driver for about a hundred thousand.

The whole experience left Li Dazhuang utterly amazed. Xia Liu was not only generous but also decisive. In him, Li Dazhuang saw the future hopes of Osmanthus Village.

When the delivery truck drove back to the village, the villagers welcomed it with firecrackers; it was its first trip carrying oysters. This time, Xia Liu did not accompany the delivery, entrusting the entire task to Li Dazhuang.

As for the payment, the kitchen manager from Longteng Hotel had already handled it, and they would send the bill to Fang Fei, who'd directly deposit the money into the card.

Now that Xia Liu had handed over the delivery job to Li Dazhuang, he finally had some free time.

Of course, he wasn't truly idle. He'd go up to the hilltop during the day to check on the chickens, go hunting in the mountains in the afternoon, and look for herbs. Everything was so apt and relaxed.

Half a month had passed, and one morning, Xia Liu received a phone call from Li Zhong.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Liu's expression turned somber. He'd also been pondering over the issue these past few days—the digital television thing that Li Zhong had discussed with him. It had been ten days to half a month already, and yet there was no sign of it reaching Osmanthus Village.

It turned out that they encountered obstructions while laying the lines, much like running into a nail household when building a road!

The obstruction was in Shanyan Village, and at the time of the call, Li Zhong and his team were already there dealing with the situation.

Packing up, Xia Liu immediately drove to Shanyan Village. Once he confirmed the location, he arrived at a field in front of Shanyan Village.

The field was a vast expanse of paddy, brimming with golden rice that swayed gently in the breeze. It was an enchanting sight, marred only by a group of villagers wielding hoes and sickles who spoiled the view.

```

In a rice field that had already been harvested, a large group of villagers from Shanyan Village stood, their faces flushed with anger. Opposite them stood another group of people, dressed in blue electrician uniforms, amongst them were Li Zhong and his subordinates.

"You can run the cables, but don't touch the land!"

"Right! Get out of here with your tools. Our village doesn't need your cables, doesn't watch your TV."

Xia Liu hadn't even gotten close when he heard several burly men from Shanyan Village shouting; their yells stirred up the onlookers, causing chaos like ants on a hot pan.

"Fellow villagers, this electric pole isn't very big, and we plan to install it on the ridge between fields, so it won't take up any of your land." At this point, Li Zhong spoke up. His expression was sincere. He had encountered such matters before while holding office elsewhere, and had always managed to resolve them peacefully.

"County Chief Li, we all trust you, but we can't have these poles installed. The village doesn't use the paid TV service anyway. Besides, this land belongs to a ninety-year-old man. What he can't stand the most is other people tampering with his property. If he finds out, it might just be too much for him, and he could pass away from the shock."

"Right, if Grandpa Mo dies, who will take responsibility?"

"Does Grandpa Mo's life mean nothing to you?"

With a lead, the people from Shanyan Village began clamoring all at once.

This situation left Li Zhong at a loss; he had already greased the wheels with the villagers before. These electric poles, if installed on the land, would surely require compensation. Even if installed on the ridges, he had planned to compensate them, but it would come out of his own pocket.

"County Chief Li, let's not rush this, there must be a way out." Xia Liu approached Li Zhong, having understood the situation at a glance. Either the ninety-year-old was real, or Shanyan Village was deliberately causing trouble.

"Xia Liu, I have let you down. I haven't been able to handle this for so long, I feel ashamed." Li Zhong, facing Xia Liu's radiant smile, felt truly remorseful. It would still take some time before he could extend the line to Osmanthus Village.

"Don't talk like that, County Chief Li. I understand the situation. Let me try to negotiate."

Without waiting for Li Zhong to reply, Xia Liu stepped forward to face the crowd from Shanyan Village, "I'm sure you all know me, Xia Liu from Osmanthus Village. There originally wasn't a quota for running these lines, but County Chief Li fought for it for us. This is an opportunity – don't you all want the convenience of watching TV and accessing the internet?"

"Osmanthus Village's brat, get lost. Whether we watch TV or not is none of your business!"

"Yeah! What's it to you!"

...

After Xia Liu identified himself, the villagers from Shanyan Village became even more animated than before, directing their hostility towards Xia Liu.

"You kid from Osmanthus Village, if Grandpa Mo dies, it'll be on you!"

"It'll be on you!"

Facing this group of unreasonable people, Li Zhong pulled Xia Liu aside, "Brother Liu, let me find a way to handle this."

Xia Liu didn't respond, just coldly watched the people of Shanyan Village. Previously, when they had been opening the road, animosities were nearly settled. But now, it seemed worse than before.

He vaguely remembered, a few days prior, Li Dazhuang's car tire had suddenly burst when he was driving past Shanyan Village. Upon inspection, they found a Wolf Fang Nail inside the inner tube.

Comparing that incident with the current one, Xia Liu realized that Shanyan Village was intentionally causing trouble!

Just as Li Zhong was about to go calm things down, a black car along with several police vehicles sped towards them. As soon as the car stopped, Lan Weiming got out, "County Chief Li! I have just returned from an inspection in Qingyun County."
