Chapter 6: Master Left The Mountain? Prepare to Pick Him Up!
At the back mountain of Suyuan Village.
A small courtyard house was repaired on a flat ground between the mountains.
There were green bricks, green tiles and a small boxwood tree planted in the courtyard. There was even a nutrient solution hanging from the tree. A middle-aged man with a sparse head and a white coat stood under the tree and looked at the sky in all directions with his hands behind his back.
Wang Jianglin, the chairman of the Wonda Group, held a covered cup of tea in the armchair behind him. The lid and rim of the cup rustled as he scraped the tea leaves.
“It’s still quiet here.” Wang Jianglin took a sip of tea and smacked his lips as he sighed. “Unlike me, I was almost eaten alive by those reporters this morning.”
“Chairman Wang, you’re rich, so you’re naturally much busier than us.” Hua Hong didn’t even turn around.
Hua Hong came from a medical family with many famous doctors. His parents had high hopes for him and hoped that he could inherit their legacy and carry forward the glory of the family.
At the age when other kids played with piss and mud, he’d spent his days with herbs. High-stress parenting had left him with dead books and a touch of sour Confucian.
Wang Jianglin couldn’t stand his sour look the most. He placed the covered bowl of tea on the table and said, “With your ability to help the world, not to mention being rich, you can even get someone to build a temple for you. Why hide in my small courtyard?”
“Small courtyard?” Hua Hong looked around.
Even though this courtyard house did not occupy a large area, it was decorated with carvings. Just the boxwood in the courtyard alone was worth a million yuan, let alone the rows of antiques in the house. Any one of them was a lifetime dream for ordinary people.
“Since it’s a small courtyard, Senior Brother, be more generous and give it to me. Tomorrow, I’ll change the sign at the door to ‘Kindness Hall’. This will be my medical center from now on.”
“That won’t do!” Wang Jianglin refused. “You can have a house in the city, but not here.”
“I don’t care.” Hua Hong pulled a leaf of boxwood unhappily. “This is the closest place to Master. I want to see Master as soon as possible.”
Suyuan Village was Kong Xiuyao’s neighboring village. This place had long cooperated with the development policy. At that time, Wang Jianglin did not succeed in bidding for the developer, so he bought a piece of land here and built a courtyard house. In the end, he was too busy working and did not have time to stay, so his 99th junior brother took advantage of him.
Speaking of his master, Kong Xiuyao, Wang Jianglin also had a lot to say.
He walked under the eaves and looked east, in the direction of Kong Xiuyao’s hometown, Pingshu Village.
Wang Jianglin pointed to the east and said, “We don’t know when Master will leave the mountain. I wonder if I can develop Pingxu Village before he returns home.”
In the past two years, he had invested in real estate and created Wonda. His business had grown larger and larger, and he was even lucky enough to become one of the four richest men in the Dragon Kingdom. All of this wealth and success could not be achieved without Kong Xiuyao’s guidance.
Ever since he had become rich, he had always had a wish—that he could develop the backward Pingxu Village and change the dilapidated countryside.
However, the situation in Pingxu Village was much more complicated than he had imagined. Just appeasing the demolition families had cost him a lot of money. This was because they were all Kong Xiuyao’s relatives. Wang Jianglin adhered to the law of peace and would never talk about things that could be resolved with money. Therefore, the demolition benefits were several times higher than other places, making the surrounding villages drool.
The villagers of Pingxu Village all thought that they were living on the Dragon Vein, and everyone felt that their ancestors’ graves were smoking. Actually, they didn’t know that this was all because of Kong Xiuyao.
However, Wang Jianglin’s peaceful delivery of money did not affect the villagers. It was precisely because he gave a lot of compensation that the villagers often fought over a few meters of land in order to get more money.
There was no strict division of land in the countryside to begin with. Today, the walls had moved an inch more, and tomorrow, the chicken pen had made an extra circle. If the police hadn’t stopped them, it would only be a matter of time before there was an armed struggle.
Speaking of this, Wang Jianglin felt a headache coming on and let out a long sigh.
Hua Hong looked at him and said, “Didn’t the researchers and field agents say that the villagers are very cooperative? We should be able to start work soon, right?”
Wang Jianglin massaged his temples tiredly. “I’ve found someone from the village committee to mediate the situation in the village. They said that it’s better to do well…”
When the adjustment was done, construction could really begin.
Wang Jianglin had been in the real estate business for so many years, but this was the first time he was waiting for the village entrance to mediate. If the other party wasn’t Kong Xiuyao’s hometown, Wang Jianglin wouldn’t have bothered.
“Knock knock—”
At that moment, there was a knock on the door. A man in a suit with a swollen left cheek pushed open the door and entered. He was carrying bags of herbs. He entered with his head lowered and first bowed respectfully. “Master, I’m back.”
“Yes.” Hua Hong raised his eyes and pointed at the man as he said to Wang Jianglin, “My disciple, Lu Kangzheng. Little Lu, this is your Uncle-Master.”
Lu Kang looked up and saw that his Uncle-Master was actually Wang Jianglin!
He took a deep breath and felt that his mind was about to stop working. He called out softly, “Hello, Uncle-Master.”
“Okay, okay, okay…” Wang Jianglin nodded perfunctorily. Then, he pinched his chin and sized up Lu Kang’s left face. He asked in confusion,” Your face… What happened? ”
After he said that, Hua Hong realized that the left side of Lu Kang’s face was swollen like a steamed bun. He thought that he must have been beaten up!
Hua Hong slapped the table and said angrily, “What’s wrong with your face?”
Lu Kang immediately looked up and said excitedly, “I was beaten by Grandmaster!”
Hearing this, Hua Hong and Wang Jianglin were stunned.
Hua Hong was the first to react and asked, “Are you confused? Tell me again, who hit you?”
“Grandmaster! Grandmaster Kong Xiuyao…” Lu Kang repeated.
Before he could finish, Lu Kang felt his chin and head being pinched and squeezed like a balloon.
Hua Hong grabbed his head and examined it carefully. Chinese medicine turned into forensic medicine. After carefully examining Lu Kang’s injuries, he turned to Wang Jianglin and said with certainty, “This slap was indeed Master’s doing!”
Wang Jianglin asked excitedly, “Tell me, where did you meet Master?”
“On the train! Today…”
Lu Kang quickly recounted his encounter with Kong Xiuyao, including Kong Xiuyao’s legendary Nine Revolutions Mysterious Needle. He also relied on this to determine that Kong Xiuyao was indeed his Grandmaster.
Wang Jianglin and Hua Hong were so happy that they were at a loss. Wang Jianglin asked again, “What about your Grandmaster? Didn’t you invite him over?”
“Grandmaster said that he wanted to go home and take a look first. He only asked me to bring a few patients over and asked Master to treat them properly, especially Master Ji. Grandmaster instructed you to treat them and not collect medical fees.”
Lu Kang was repeating Kong Xiuyao’s instructions before he left, but Hua Hong didn’t listen to the latter part at all. All he could think about was that Kong Xiuyao had already returned home, which meant that his master was in the neighboring village now.
He was so anxious that he didn’t even bother to change his shoes. As he ran, he said, “Quickly prepare a car for me. I want to go to Pingxu Village to see Master immediately!”
