Chapter 12 : Can't Do It, Will Be Resented

  • Lin Fan looked around and saw that these Chinese herbs were growing in some places, with a mix of different varieties.
  • But in some areas, there was a large group of the same type of herbs growing.
  • Among them were kudzu root and indigo root.
  • These two herbs were the most abundant.
  • And their growth posture was excellent!
  • They were clearly wild treasures!
  • Kudzu root and indigo root were both common herbs, but they required a large quantity!
  • In other words, these wild herbs could be dug up and sold directly after simple processing.
  • Lin Fan smiled!
  • What he saw before him were all wild herbs, to put it simply.
  • These were all money!
  • As long as he found a sales source, he could definitely make a big profit!
  • After thinking for a while, Lin Fan put down the basket and used a small hoe to dig around in the ground.
  • In no time, the basket was filled with herbs, all of them!
  • Lin Fan returned home in less than two hours.
  • Zhang Ling was still wiping the medicine cabinet.
  • She was very meticulous.
  • She smiled and worked hard, pulling out every small cabinet and wiping them inside and out.
  • During this process, some people came to the house one after another.
  • They asked her some questions.
  • For example, whether Lin Fan was really not leaving and staying in the village as a rural doctor.
  • They also asked if Lin Fan planned to become the village chief and improve Minghu Village, helping everyone out of poverty...
  • "Lin Fan, you're back! A lot of people came to the house just now."
  • Seeing Lin Fan come back with a bunch of herbs, Zhang Ling playfully ran into the yard.
  • "Yeah, were they asking about me becoming a rural doctor?"
  • "Yes! Lin Fan, you said in the village that you want to become a rural doctor, right?"
  • "Yes, from now on, I am the rural doctor of Minghu Village."
  • Lin Fan said confidently.
  • "Hehe! Lin Fan, you're amazing! But some people also asked if you're going to help everyone out of poverty."
  • Zhang Ling was still a bit worried about this.
  • After all, Lin Fan was able to coincidentally catch a valuable tuna.
  • But to let everyone catch something worth tens of thousands of yuan, unless a miracle happened.
  • She didn't know who spread this news, but what if Lin Fan couldn't do it?
  • That would lead to gossip and resentment towards Lin Fan.
  • "Oh, is that so?"
  • Lin Fan thought that it should be because he went to find Sun Jianguo last night.
  • He spread the news of him becoming a rural doctor and also exaggerated himself, saying that he would help everyone out of poverty.
  • "Lin Fan, this is not a joke. If everyone believes it and you can't do it, you might be resented."
  • Zhang Ling deeply understood this.
  • When her father went out to work and earn money, he said he would bring some people from the village with him.
  • But he didn't succeed, and within half a year, their family was isolated by everyone.
  • After her father passed away, the villagers became even more ruthless. Besides being isolated, there were even rumors that her father used witchcraft.
  • "It's okay, it's good that this news has spread, because I'm going to do something big next!"
  • Lin Fan thought.
  • First, he would go to the county to discuss the matter with the purchasing merchants.
  • Once the cooperation was settled, they would naturally need manpower to dig up those herbs.
  • If he did it alone, he could make money, but the efficiency would definitely be low.
  • "Ah? Lin Fan, are you serious?"
  • "I'm serious. I'm going to the county later. Is there anything you need, Xiaoling? I'll buy it for you."
  • "No, Lin Fan, just come back early. I'll cook dinner and wait for you."
  • "Okay!"
  • Lin Fan took out all the herbs from the basket, leaving only kudzu root and indigo root. After cleaning the others, he placed them on the ground to dry.
  • "Uncle Sun, I'm borrowing your tricycle again."
  • "Xiaofan, your uncle is not at home. You can take the tricycle."
  • Sun Jianguo was not at home, he went to work in the fields.
  • Seeing Lin Fan carrying the basket, Liu Cuihua asked him and found out that he was going to the county to buy something.
  • "Xiaofan, it will take a few more days for the vegetables in my field to mature. Can you help me buy some cauliflower and some soybeans?"
  • "Aunt, continue telling me what you need, and I'll buy them for you later."
  • "You see, if there is lard, buy ten kilograms for me. We're almost out of oil at home."
  • Liu Cuihua was not polite at all. After all, Lin Fan borrowed her tricycle.
  • "Okay, if Aunt needs lard for lunch, you can come to my house and get some in advance. Xiaoling has been at home."
  • "Okay, okay..."
  • Liu Cuihua felt a bit embarrassed.
  • Lin Fan was too polite and easy to talk to.
  • "Xiaofan, you might have to wait until your uncle comes back for the money..."
  • "It's okay, I'll buy the things first."
  • "Okay, Xiaofan, have a safe trip."
  • Liu Cuihua made up her mind not to give the money to Lin Fan. If he asked about it later, she would say it was for the depreciation and wear and tear of the tricycle.
  • Lin Fan could see through Liu Cuihua's little trick.
  • Since she married into the village, she had taken advantage of others in various ways...
  • An hour and a half later, Lin Fan rode his bike from Minghu Village to the county.
  • There was no cargo on the bike, so Lin Fan was able to ride fast on the mountain road.
  • Da Bao Chinese Medicine Shop, Lin Fan had just bought silver needles here yesterday.
  • Of course, he had first come into contact with this medicine shop ten years ago.
  • He was still young at that time and came to the county with his grandfather, selling batches of dried herbs to this shop.
  • It was said that the headquarters of Da Bao Chinese Medicine Shop was in the provincial capital.
  • It was a large enterprise, and the roots of this shop were in Fenghe County.
  • So this shop had always been in this location.
  • In the medicine shop, a young girl was playing with her phone, seemingly searching for information about those herbs on Baidu.
  • She was about the same age as Zhang Ling.
  • Wearing a set of green cheongsam.
  • A mature and well-proportioned woman wearing a cheongsam would appear enchanting and alluring.
  • And this girl, wearing this green cheongsam, exuded a pure lotus-like temperament.
  • Her well-developed chest was perfectly showcased by the dress.
  • With bright eyes and cherry-like lips, she exuded a unique and pure aura in her every move.
  • "Boss."
  • "Hey, I'm here. What herbs does the customer need? Master Qin is not here, so he can't diagnose and treat."
  • Qin Xiaoyu responded without looking up.
  • She was busy taking notes.
  • "Oh, since Master Qin is not here, can I discuss business with this young lady?"
  • "Young lady?"
  • Qin Xiaoyu put down her phone and finally looked up at Lin Fan.
  • At first glance, she was a bit fascinated.
  • Because Lin Fan was laughing, his appearance already belonged to the level of a male god.
  • This smile was like brilliant sunshine.
  • Qin Xiaoyu almost couldn't get angry.
  • "Who are you calling a young lady? I'm already twenty this year, and this shop is mine. Do you think I can discuss business?"
  • "Young lady?"
  • Qin Xiaoyu put down her phone and finally looked up at Lin Fan.
  • At first glance, she was a bit fascinated.
  • Because Lin Fan was laughing, his appearance already belonged to the level of a male god.
  • This smile was like brilliant sunshine.
  • Qin Xiaoyu almost couldn't get angry.
  • "Who are you calling a young lady? I'm already twenty this year, and this shop is mine. Do you think I can discuss business?"
