Chapter 16 : Incredible

  • "I can definitely do it!"
  • Lin Fan was confident. He planned to buy some fishing nets and equipment later.
  • If he couldn't even catch a fish, then he would be damned.
  • "Alright."
  • "Boss Zhou, move the car aside, I need to go back first."
  • "You go ahead."
  • Zhou Jingrong handed the car keys to Lin Fan, wanting to test him.
  • "Are you sure? Aren't you afraid I'll crash it?"
  • "If you crash it, then so be it."
  • "Alright."
  • After taking the car keys, Lin Fan skillfully backed the car out and parked it in a vacant spot next to the shop.
  • "This kid! He's really something."
  • Zhou Jingrong knew very well that if it was someone who had just learned how to drive, they wouldn't even know how to shift gears in a Mercedes-Benz, as the gear shift in a Mercedes-Benz is different from a regular automatic transmission car.
  • Lin Fan was able to reverse and drive the car so smoothly, which meant he had previous experience driving a Mercedes-Benz.
  • "Boss Zhou, I'll see you tomorrow."
  • "Alright, drive safely on your way back."
  • As Lin Fan left, Liu Daneng approached him and handed him a business card, along with five hundred yuan.
  • "Young man, I'm really sorry about earlier. This is my business card. If you have any friends who want to buy a car, they can come to me."
  • "Also, here's five hundred yuan. I overcharged you earlier."
  • "Boss Liu, there's no need for this. I'll take the business card. If any of my friends want to buy a car, I'll recommend them to you. Your prices are fair."
  • With that, Lin Fan drove away.
  • Leaving Liu Daneng dumbfounded.
  • To know someone like Boss Zhou Jingrong in the county town and still be so low-key.
  • This young man was extraordinary!
  • "Boss, what do you think of this young man?"
  • Zhou Jingrong asked Liu Daneng.
  • "Well, he's modest and low-key, and there's a certain indescribable quality about him. I can't really tell how capable he is, but I admire him."
  • Liu Daneng conservatively replied.
  • Who knows what kind of relationship Zhou Jingrong has with him? If he said the wrong thing, their small shop might be flattened.
  • "Well, get me a car like his..."
  • "Alright!"
  • Zhou Jingrong's gaze was fixed on the direction Lin Fan had left.
  • The old man had returned to the provincial capital in the morning.
  • Before leaving, he told her that the arranged marriage at home was almost due, and asked her to go back and get married soon.
  • But she didn't want to. If she were to get married, it would be with the person she liked, after seeing Lin Fan.
  • She had a big idea...
  • But Lin Fan didn't know any of this.
  • He drove his brand new tricycle to the fishing tackle shop.
  • He bought three large fishing nets, as well as some fishing equipment and bait.
  • He spent a total of one thousand five hundred yuan.
  • With only two thousand yuan left in his pocket, he was satisfied and headed home.
  • At the entrance of Minghu Village, a group of middle-aged women were whispering to each other.
  • When they saw Lin Fan returning in his new car, they all stood up and looked over.
  • "Wow! Isn't that Xiaofan?"
  • "Yes! He's the university student who came back from studying abroad!"
  • "He bought that car, right?"
  • "I heard from our relatives in town that the tricycle is very expensive, costing over ten thousand yuan!"
  • As Lin Fan passed by these women, he was stopped by a woman in her mid-thirties waving her hand.
  • Her name was Liu Ying, and she was Zhang Ting's wife.
  • Zhang Ting's family and Zhang Hui's family were from the same ancestor, so technically, Lin Fan had to call her sister-in-law.
  • "Xiaofan, you're a big shot now! You've only been back in the village for two days and you've already bought a car worth over ten thousand yuan. That's incredible."
  • Liu Ying said enviously.
  • "Sister-in-law, it's mainly because it's inconvenient to travel in our village, and I might have to go to the county town more often in the future, so it's necessary to have a car."
  • "Oh, now everyone in the village is saying that if you stay in the village, you can help everyone make money and get rich. Is that true?"
  • Liu Ying grasped the key point.
  • "Yes, Xiaofan, everyone is really concerned about you now. We've all been farmers all our lives and don't know much, but we're all hardworking. If you have any good ideas, you should tell everyone."
  • This woman who spoke was Lan Feng, five years older than Liu Ying.
  • She was considered a high-ranking member of the Women's Federation in Minghu Village.
  • Once she spoke, the other women smiled and praised Lin Fan.
  • "Yes, sister-in-law, Aunt Lan Feng, you've hit the nail on the head."
  • Lin Fan thought for a moment and said, "I do have some ideas now, but it depends on whether you trust me or not."
  • "Xiaofan, look at how you're talking. You're the only highly educated person in Minghu Village who has studied abroad. If we don't trust you, who can we trust?"
  • "Xiaofan, if you have any money-making ideas, we're all willing to work hard!"
  • Liu Ying and Lan Feng both expressed their support on behalf of everyone.
  • It all depended on how Lin Fan would lead them.
  • "Sister-in-law, Aunt Lan Feng, this idea of mine requires quite a few people. You see if you can gather some people and come to my house later. I'll explain it to everyone in detail."
  • Lin Fan had made up his mind.
  • He wanted Liu Ying and Lan Feng to gather the women of Minghu Village and teach them the techniques of digging medicinal herbs.
  • As long as they trusted him, they would definitely be able to make money.
  • "Alright, Xiaofan! We'll come over later!"
  • Liu Ying said excitedly.
  • No matter what, they would go to class first. If there was no future, it wouldn't matter if they left later.
  • "Sister-in-law, my requirement is that only one person from each family can come, regardless of gender."
  • "Okay, sister-in-law will follow your requirements."
  • After giving the instructions, Lin Fan drove to Sun Jianguo's house.
  • Liu Cuihua had just finished her work and returned home.
  • When she saw Lin Fan driving the brand new tricycle, she was stunned.
  • "Xiaofan! How did you buy a car! It must have cost a lot of money!"
  • Liu Cuihua felt extremely distressed.
  • With a car, Lin Fan wouldn't need to borrow the family car anymore!
  • There were still many things the family needed, and if he didn't come, she would have to spend a lot of money to buy them all!
  • "Aunt, I'm planning to do something that requires me to go to the county town more often. Having a car is convenient."
  • Saying that, Lin Fan opened the trunk of the car, "Aunt, I've taken care of the things you asked me to do. I bought ten pounds of lard and all the condiments."
  • "You're such a good kid, really puts my mind at ease."
  • Liu Cuihua smiled on the surface, but internally, she was complaining.
  • "Lin Fan, you bought a car! What are these? Did you buy them for our family?"
  • Sun Jianguo came back carrying some grass to feed the horse. When he saw Lin Fan carrying several bags and heading towards the kitchen, his face turned black again.
  • It was definitely his wife who told Lin Fan to buy something!
  • "Liu Cuihua!"
  • "What are you shouting for? I'll go sweep the floor first."
  • Liu Cuihua quickly slipped away. After Su Jianguo had scolded her earlier, she knew not to take advantage of Lin Fan anymore. She couldn't afford to joke around.
  • "Uncle Sun, calm down!"
  • Lin Fan stopped him as he was about to rush into the house, carrying a bundle of grass.
  • "Xiaofan, I'm sorry for what Uncle did. Let me deal with this woman first, and we'll settle the accounts later."
  • "Damn it! Uncle Sun, can I still stay in the village if you really hit her?"
