"Old man, you don't need to be like this. Even with normal profit sharing, I'll still be Pear Blossom Village's pillar of support."
Er Zhu immediately saw through Old Man Sun's thoughts. A flicker of shock crossed Old Man Sun's eyes. He wanted to retort but didn't know what to say.
"Ah, benefactor, you are a god!"
After a long while, Old Man Sun shouted and was about to kneel before Er Zhu. Seeing this, the other villagers of Pear Blossom Village finally reacted and also prepared to kneel before Er Zhu.
To them, Er Zhu was like a divine being, not only skilled in medicine but also a wealthy magnate. Er Zhu was not just their benefactor, but their great fortune!
"Old man, what are you doing? Where are there any gods in this world? I'm just an ordinary farmer. Everyone, hurry up and sign, don't delay important matters."
Just as Old Man Sun was about to kneel on the ground, Er Zhu grabbed him and helped him up. He waved to the crowd, forcefully changing the subject.
Hearing Er Zhu say this, Old Man Sun didn't insist. Instantly, everyone surrounded Er Zhu as if they would lose tens of millions if they were a second late.
Not far away, Liu Yan leaned against the doorway with her arms crossed, a faint smile on her lips and her eyes filled with tenderness!
As expected of the person she liked, he could make everyone submit with his own abilities, no matter where he was!
Er Zhu, as long as you don't get married, I, Liu Yan, will not give up!
Gazing at Er Zhu, Liu Yan silently made a resolution, her eyes exceptionally firm!
After signing the contract, Er Zhu prepared to leave. Liu Yan left first due to matters at the fruit shop. But as soon as she got into her car, she saw one luxury car after another driving from a distance.
"The Zheng family is here!"
Seeing the special license plate numbers, a villager exclaimed with worry. Hearing that the Zheng family had arrived, some villagers' faces instantly turned grim.
They had overheard Er Zhu's argument with Zheng Jie yesterday, so they thought Miss Zheng had brought people to settle scores with their benefactor!
Thinking of this, the villagers shouted, "Benefactor, run quickly! We'll hold them here!"
Hearing this, other villagers also guessed what was happening. They surrounded Er Zhu, looking as if they were ready to fight.
But at that moment, over twenty bodyguards stepped out of the Zheng family's cars. They were all burly and imposing!
"Everyone, don't be nervous. The Zheng family probably won't harm the benefactor," Old Man Sun quickly stepped forward to explain as the atmosphere grew tense.
"Nonsense! That Miss Zheng has always been arrogant and willful. She won't let the benefactor off!"
"Exactly! My child just glanced at her, and she had her bodyguards break my son's leg!"
"Why bring so many people if you're not here to cause trouble? Benefactor, you should run quickly, we'll cover your retreat!"
...
A young and strong villager picked up a brick from the ground, looking as if he was ready to fight to the death.
Hearing these words, Old Man Sun wanted to explain, but thinking of last night's events, he didn't know where to start.
"Everyone, please don't be so tense. Old Master Zheng just invited me to his home as a guest."
Seeing Old Man Sun hesitate, and noticing the fierce look of the Zheng family bodyguards, Er Zhu spoke up to prevent the villagers from suffering any harm.
"Benefactor, you can't go! That Old Master Zheng is cunning and treacherous. Going there would be a Hongmen Banquet!"
Hearing Er Zhu say this, the villagers' anger intensified, and they became even more worried about Er Zhu.
This benefactor was good in every way, except that he was too honest, even a bit foolish!
Some villagers, seeing Er Zhu's calm demeanor, thought he hadn't grasped the situation and were already regretting signing the contract with him.
Could this foolishness truly lead them to prosperity? They expressed their doubts!
Tension filled the air. It was at this moment that Zheng Chenbin stepped out of the car.
"I'm telling you, Boss Zheng, Er Zhu is the benefactor of our village! If you want to harm him, you'll have to step over our dead bodies!"
Seeing Zheng Chenbin, the villagers thought he was about to give orders and shouted loudly, holding bricks.
Other villagers echoed them. Seeing this scene, a warmth surged in Er Zhu's heart. Although the villagers' intentions were mistaken, their sincerity was real!
"Hmm? What did you say to these villagers?"
Hearing this, Zheng Chenbin was utterly bewildered. He thought the bodyguards had said something and questioned them with a frown.
"We didn't say anything! As soon as we got out of the car, we saw these uncivilized people holding bricks and staring at us. We thought they were going to attack."
The bodyguards were equally confused, pointing at the villagers with wronged expressions.
"Everyone, there's been a misunderstanding. I'm not here to harm Mr. Wang. I'm sincerely inviting Mr. Wang to my home as a guest."
Although Zheng Chenbin couldn't figure it out, for Er Zhu's sake, he didn't get angry and explained politely.
What a joke! Was he crazy to want to discipline Mr. Wang? He wouldn't dare, even with a hundred times his courage!
"Hmm? He really is here to invite the benefactor as a guest."
Hearing this, many villagers were stunned. Recalling Er Zhu's words, a hint of admiration flashed in their shocked eyes.
Zheng Chenbin had always been cunning and treacherous, which was why Old Man Sun was worried about trouble. But he hadn't expected this old man to be so true to his word in front of the benefactor!
Old Man Sun couldn't help but look at Er Zhu. Unknowingly, he admired this capable young man even more.
If only the benefactor were from their village!
Other villagers, seeing that it was a misunderstanding, threw down their bricks one after another, and the atmosphere instantly eased considerably.
Zheng Chenbin quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Er Zhu, "I'm truly sorry, Mr. Wang, for the misunderstanding."
Seeing the old master so respectful to this ordinary young man, some unaware bodyguards showed surprise in their eyes.
Their master was a person who could do as he pleased in Guangyuan County, but in front of this young man, he was like a cowardly grandson...
Some bodyguards who knew the inside story found it inconvenient to explain. They just shook their heads at the other bodyguards, signaling them not to meddle.
Normally, their master, let alone themselves, wouldn't even bother to glance at this kind of nouveau riche!
But this young man was different. He was someone that the esteemed Master Liu of Huaibei City had personally called to look after!
Thinking of Liu Lianliang, the bodyguards also became respectful towards Er Zhu. They lowered their heads, not daring to look at Er Zhu.
"I am very sorry for what happened last night. Today, I have specially prepared a banquet to help Mr. Wang calm his nerves. Please grace us with your presence."
Zheng Chenbin tidied his clothes and looked at Er Zhu with a plastered smile, his mouth nearly splitting to his ears.
"Okay." Er Zhu didn't really want to go, but seeing Zheng Chenbin's sincere demeanor, he nodded in agreement.
"Hurry up and get in the car, Mr. Wang. I've already made arrangements at the biggest five-star hotel in Guangyuan County!"
Seeing Er Zhu agree, Zheng Chenbin was ecstatic, as if he had found a treasure, his eyes nearly disappearing as he smiled.
