"Study hard, Zhao Lin is very strong!"
Er Zhu stopped, glancing back at Fat Head and admonishing him.
Fat Head didn't speak, but expressed his understanding with a kowtow. Er Zhu swept his gaze over the patch of Chinese medicinal herbs, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.
He could actually tell the age of those herbs!
"Congratulations, you've broken through to the second level of Heavenly Eye Sight!"
The ancient voice of the Dragon King echoed in his mind. Er Zhu nodded slightly, his gaze returning to calm.
Er Zhu and Li Mei stayed in the field for a while. When they returned, the three women had already left. Er Zhu was too lazy to inquire about their situation. The night passed uneventfully, and dawn soon arrived.
"Er Zhu, are you home?"
Just as Er Zhu was in a daze, he suddenly heard a familiar voice from outside the door. He looked up and saw Lin Quan standing at the entrance, peering inside.
"What's wrong?"
Er Zhu opened the window and asked Lin Quan calmly.
"I've come to order some Chinese medicinal herbs, but I don't know anything about them, so I thought I'd ask you to take a look."
Lin Quan saw Er Zhu and scratched his head sheepishly.
Due to the increasing demand for Chinese medicinal herbs from the pharmaceutical factory, the supply from Shiliu Village was far from sufficient. Lin Quan also needed to purchase them from other regions.
"Alright, I'll be right there."
Er Zhu nodded slightly, closed the window, and prepared to head out. He thought about waking Li Mei, but seeing how soundly she slept, he decided not to disturb her.
He had just broken through to the second level of Heavenly Eye Sight last night, and today was a good opportunity to test it out!
Er Zhu walked out, thinking about what had happened the previous night.
The two soon arrived at the pharmaceutical factory, where ten large trucks filled with Chinese medicinal herbs were already parked. The villagers, seeing the grand spectacle, also gathered to watch.
Ten trucks! The scale of this pharmaceutical factory was truly growing!
"Yo, Manager Lin."
Seeing Lin Quan, a shifty-looking man with a hooked nose and monkey cheeks emerged from the first truck, offering Lin Quan a cigarette with a fawning smile.
"Mr. Shi, I don't smoke."
Lin Quan instinctively disliked the man's obsequious demeanor, but given their years of cooperation, he didn't say anything.
"Heh heh, Manager Lin, these Chinese medicinal herbs are all top-notch. You don't need to check them."
A hint of embarrassment flashed in Mr. Shi's eyes. He slowly withdrew his hand and was about to say something when he saw Lin Quan scanning the trucks.
As Mr. Shi was about to speak again, Lin Quan raised his hand and interrupted him, turning to Er Zhu and saying:
"Er Zhu, please take a good look for me. This batch of medicinal herbs is very important to us!"
Just as Er Zhu was about to walk away, Mr. Shi quickly stepped in front of him, saying indignantly,
"Manager Lin, what do you mean by this? Don't you trust me? Even if you don't trust me, you shouldn't just find anyone to inspect the goods."
Mr. Shi glared ferociously at Lin Quan and then contemptuously glanced at Er Zhu, his smile having long vanished from his face.
"Er Zhu is a renowned divine doctor in the surrounding villages, how can he be considered 'just anyone'?"
"Mr. Shi, inspecting goods is a normal part of business. Why are you so angry?"
Before Er Zhu could say anything, Lin Quan stepped forward, speaking as he pushed Mr. Shi aside.
Years of business experience told him that there was definitely something wrong with these Chinese medicinal herbs!
But he had cooperated with Mr. Shi for over a decade without any issues. Why would there be a problem this time?
"Hahaha, divine doctor? This little brat who hasn't even grown all his hair, calling himself a divine doctor, aren't you afraid of being laughed to death!"
Lin Quan was jolted back to reality by a burst of mocking laughter. He looked up and saw Mr. Shi clutching his stomach, shaking with laughter.
"Even if he started learning medicine from the womb, he'd only be in his twenties. A divine doctor of twenty-something years, hahaha..."
Just as Lin Quan was about to retort, he saw Mr. Shi, suppressing his laughter, continue to mock him. But before he could finish speaking, he erupted into another fit of laughter. He looked as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world!
"Divine doctor, hahaha... hahaha..."
After laughing for who knows how long, Mr. Shi wiped his tears, pointed at Er Zhu, and burst into peals of laughter.
Even a lifetime practitioner would not dare to call himself a divine doctor, yet this little brat dared to be so arrogant!
Mr. Shi believed Er Zhu was just showing off, but he had no idea it was actually true!
"Take them back. These Chinese medicinal herbs do not meet our factory's requirements!"
"We need herbs that are over fifty years old. These are less than twenty years."
Just as Mr. Shi was about to retort, Er Zhu looked at the trucks and added.
"Damn it, do you really think you're a divine doctor? You can tell the age from this far away? I think you're here to cause trouble today!"
Mr. Shi glared at Er Zhu, his eyes blazing with anger. As he spoke, he waved his hand, and instantly, the drivers of all ten trucks got out. They menacingly approached Er Zhu, and the atmosphere grew increasingly tense!
"Shi Changshan, what are you doing!"
Lin Quan hadn't expected things to escalate like this. He stepped in front of Er Zhu and shouted, furious.
"What am I doing? Teaching him how to behave!"
Shi Changshan sneered, rolled up his sleeves, and looked down at Er Zhu with disdain. Er Zhu, however, continued to watch the approaching men with an indifferent expression, as if they weren't looking for him.
"Lin Quan, step aside and let them come."
Seeing Lin Quan about to speak again, Er Zhu waved his hand, signaling Lin Quan to back down.
Although these dozen or so men were strong, they were not much of a threat to Er Zhu.
"Damn it, still so arrogant at a time like this? Then I won't hold back!"
Hearing Er Zhu's words, Shi Changshan looked at him as if he were an idiot, his eyes filled with even more mockery.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
More than a dozen men, fists raised, charged at Er Zhu at top speed. The wind from their fists whipped up sand and stones, and the scene descended into chaos!
Lin Quan stood aside with a slight frown, his eyes filled with worry.
If Shi Changshan and his men were just ordinary people, there would be nothing to worry about. But Er Zhu didn't know that they were all trained martial artists!
Moreover, they had been practicing martial arts since childhood!
Ten years ago, Shi Changshan's goods had been stolen. Since then, all the employees he hired were martial artists, and some were even retired soldiers!
Those retired soldiers had undergone rigorous special training and had even faced near-death experiences on the battlefield!
Although they had been retired for over a decade, their skills were still far beyond those of ordinary people!
Boom!
Just as Lin Quan was feeling anxious, a loud bang brought him back to his senses. He looked up and was stunned by the scene before him!
He saw Er Zhu punch a driver in the stomach. As the driver flew backward, he also hit two other drivers, and the three of them crashed into an ancient tree a hundred meters away, instantly snapping the tree in half!
