The acquisition went very smoothly, and the personnel accompanying the driver was the lobby manager of Longyun Hotel. Fang Fei gave him tens of thousands of yuan directly for the chickens and ducks by the weight, paying on the spot and even rounding up the amounts generously. This filled the villagers with joy, but Xia Liu could only wryly smile in secret. Perhaps Fang Fei acted this way because of Li Qinqin's influence. "Forget it, as long as the villagers are making a profit, that's fine." After thinking for a while, Xia Liu became indifferent. After all, Fang Fei wasn't short of money, and there was no use in harboring concerns. This time, some villagers sold a dozen chickens and directly pocketed five or six thousand yuan. They couldn't imagine that what used to take a year to earn, they now earned in a day. After the two vehicles left, Xia Liu asked everyone to wait as he called Zhang Xiaoxue to bring the ledger for the oysters and Atractylodes, as well as the money, which resulted in another cash distribution. The scene stayed lively until it got dark, and by that day alone, some villagers had gotten several thousand yuan, and including the money from the chickens, their income soared past ten thousand! "Xia Liu, I really want to thank you. If it weren't for you, I might have committed suicide before long." After everyone had left, Zhang Tie expressed his gratitude to Xia Liu with sincere emotion. Mo Li felt the same. She hadn't picked for a few days, but these two days brought her a few hundred yuan in income with real, hard cash. How could she not be excited? "You two don't need to be like this. Although there were some unpleasant moments before, that's all in the past. I hope you'll have a better life from now on," Xia Liu said with a slight smile to convey his attitude. "Hehe, for sure. But as for Xiaoman, I'll have to trouble you with her," Zhang Tie said with a chuckle. Huh? Trouble me? Xia Liu was a bit baffled. What was Zhang Tie talking about? "Ah, that stubborn girl just went home to pack her clothes, saying she's moving in to live with Xiaoxue," Mo Li said, somewhat helplessly thinking about her daughter moving to Xia Liu's place. It wasn't that she feared Xia Liu would do anything to her daughter, but rather that she was afraid of bothering him. Besides, she did hope that Xia Liu would do something for her daughter. "What! Zhang Xiaoman is going to live with Xiaoxue!" Xia Liu was actually somewhat panicked upon hearing this news. Zhang Xiaoman's way of thinking was too... that. If Xiaoxue and she spent a long time together, the outcome was sure to be unpredictable. "No trouble at all, no trouble. The two sisters haven't been together for a long time. It's only natural for them to cling to each other now. You don't need to worry." After saying this, Xia Liu hurried back home, wanting to understand Zhang Xiaoman's true motives. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaoman wouldn't explain it to him, so Xia Liu was helpless. Thus began his cohabitation with the two sisters... "Sister Xiaoxue, how come your skin is so fair!" "Xiaoman, yours isn't bad either. You're even slimmer than me." "Let me try feeling it..." All these voices were coming from inside Zhang Xiaoxue's room, and Xia Liu was going crazy. He could imagine the scene inside the room, and it must have been explosively exciting. He couldn't bear it anymore; he needed to make a temporary escape! Under the cover of night, he ran to the beach, where the shadow of a figure glided their arms through the water, a beautifully serene scene. Xia Liu initially wanted to act calm, but Zhang Qing didn't give him the chance. As soon as she saw him approaching, Zhang Qing quickly swam to the shore and then squatted down in front of Xia Liu. "Sister Zhang, tomorrow you can start harvesting oysters and make big money! After becoming a wealthy woman, don't forget about me." "I definitely won't forget you. I'll fund you so you can be kept by me, and we can play from morning till night!" Zhang Qing rolled her eyes at Xia Liu, who was always broaching the uncomfortable subjects. "Hehe, Sister Zhang, have an early rest. Don't be late tomorrow, eh. You have to catch eighty pounds of oysters!" After saying that, Xia Liu ran off quickly. He dared not stay any longer, as it would be awkward to wake up with Zhang Qing the next day. After returning home, Xia Liu set himself straight and started cultivating the Five Elements Mantra. Only in a state of cultivation could he find peace. In the morning, Xia Liu left a note for the two girls and then went up into the mountains with a basket on his back, not forgetting the events of the previous day. Today, he was supposed to treat that "Fairy," Huang Xue, and needed to gather some rare medicinal herbs. It was already noon by the time he came out of the mountains, and without delay, he drove to collect oysters. This time he got a full haul again, about three thousand five hundred pounds. If it wasn't for an experienced driver, the bumpy roads to the county could have caused several overturns. Xia Liu was already considering getting a truck for hauling oysters. Although the pickup was convenient, it couldn't carry much at a time, which was a disadvantage. It was around two in the afternoon when Xia Liu finally arrived at Longteng Hotel. At the rear entrance, Huang Xue stood with her hands on her hips, her face full of anger, looking at him. "What are you doing? It's almost dark, and if you hadn't shown up, I'd have been bombarded with complaints!" Huang Xue was very angry because the wild oysters had significantly increased the number of hotel guests compared to before. The guests had been arriving since noon, expecting to be served, but after waiting for over two hours and still no meals, all complaints wound up with Huang Xue. "Umm, sorry, I went to the mountains in the morning to gather herbs and came back late," Xia Liu explained very honestly. "Gathering herbs? For...?" Huang Xue exclaimed in surprise, then gestured to herself. Xia Liu nodded; indeed, the herb gathering was for this "Fairy." "Heh heh, Boss Xia, so sorry about earlier, but your timing is just perfect." ... Xia Liu almost burst out laughing; this girl's mood swings were swift indeed, but it didn't matter. Perhaps this would save him a lot of trouble. After following Huang Xue into the office, his phone buzzed with a credit of two hundred twenty thousand yuan. There were only three thousand five hundred pounds of oysters, and he got an extra ten thousand yuan—this girl was certainly generous. "Boss Xia, I apologize for before..." "No problem, no problem. Manager Huang, just call me Xia Liu." "All right, Xia Liu. When can we start the treatment?" What Huang Xue cared about the most was whether Xia Liu could cure her. "After understanding the situation, we can begin," Xia Liu responded.
