The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 183 - 183 182

183: 182 183: 182 “Liu Hun, take it!

This is your exhibition booth!

Cherish it well, do you have any idea how the city assigns only one booth per county?

Adding another one could cost hundreds of thousands, and it’s not even guaranteed you can get it!” Secretary Zhou said as he casually threw the stamped document to Liu Hun, then his eyes darted toward Huang Zishan and he remarked, “You lucky dog, having such a sweet girl run errands and speak for you.

Humph, otherwise…”

Secretary Zhou had intended to take this opportunity to really give Liu Hun a hard time, but he was caught off guard by the cunning and odd Huang Zishan, who spoke sweetly, smiled sweetly, and even her walk had a sweet swaying to it.

“You’re really kind!

To thank you, let me tell you something more!” Huang Zishan said with a sweet smile as she sat down opposite Secretary Zhou.

Liu Hun was somewhat puzzled.

The paperwork was all done, and he didn’t know what play Huang Zishan was putting on.

But Secretary Zhou knew what was up—as clear as daylight—this was just a typical ploy by a woman to present herself on a platter!

He knew this move!

It had claimed the ‘first blood’ of so many women before, he was familiar with it!

“Your story, my dear, go ahead!

Brother is listening!

Brother is listening attentively, Brother loves listening to a tender sister like you!” Secretary Zhou said with a crooked smile to Huang Zishan.

“Do you know who you were in your past life?” Huang Zishan asked Secretary Zhou with pursed lips.

Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai!

The Cowherd and the Weaving Maid!

This sister was really going for the literary route!

Absolutely spot on!

Secretary Zhou chuckled mischievously to himself, throwing a teasing glance at Huang Zishan and said, “Brother doesn’t know, sister you tell me!”

“Then I’ll tell you!

This story goes back hundreds of years!” Huang Zishan said, her eyes revealing a hint of a mischievous smile.

Secretary Zhou felt an itch in his heart, reaching out to touch Huang Zishan, but she deftly avoided his grasp, and with a twisted smile, she said, “Shy!

I like this style!

Just keep talking, sister, we have plenty of time, let the ones who need to bugger off, bugger off!

We’ll start from Pangu creating the world!”

“Listen up!

Back in the days, Emperor Qianlong traveled to the Jiangnan region, and his path was blocked by a turtle.

Qianlong asked, ‘What matter do you turtles wish to report?’ The turtle replied, ‘We have turtle eggs to present, and seek official hats in return.’ Qianlong laughed, ‘Very well, when the lamp wick turns downward, I will make all of you officials.’ The turtles expressed their gratitude.

Qianlong laughed, ‘These stupid turtles, when will a lamp wick ever turn downwards?’ Yet three hundred years later, electric lights replaced candles, and as the emperor’s words are no joke, these turtles indeed all became officials.” After finishing her story, Huang Zishan pursed her lips, rose with a laugh, and hooked arms with a giddy Liu Hun, leaving Secretary Zhou’s office.

Secretary Zhou sensed something amiss!

Why were they leaving together with Liu Hun?

What was this defeated calf laughing about?

He quickly got up and asked Huang Zishan, “Sister, what does your story mean?

Will you come back?

Leave me your number!”

“You, you!

If Secretary Zhou really gets wise to it, it’ll be tough for us to get things done here in the future!” Liu Hun said with a laugh to Huang Zishan, genuinely surprised that she would dare to tease Secretary Zhou.

Huang Zishan shook Liu Hun’s arm with a mischievous smile and asked, “Guess when he’ll catch on as we leave?

What floor?”

Liu Hun saw they were nearly at the first floor and was about to speak when suddenly, from the secretary’s office upstairs, came an earth-shattering shout, “Bastards!”

“Hahaha…” The two laughed as they got into the car, heading straight for the agricultural fair in Yuhua City.

The two were somewhat startled by the scale and arrangement of the agricultural fair when they arrived; it was just like the grand exhibitions seen on TV.

Not only was the scale huge, and the scene grand, but there were also plenty of people.

Colorful agricultural and sideline products filled the counters, making customers happy, though sellers had to really have some skill to carve out a path through the competition.

When reception brought them to their own booth, they were completely dumbfounded!

“This… why here?” Liu Hun couldn’t help but utter such a phrase as he looked at their spot.

Their booth was awkwardly placed in a dead corner of a corridor!

It seemed only someone bored to tears would wander over here.

In front of their booth was not another display, even less a passageway or corridor; a meter away was a locked glass door, outside which lay a spacious dam, but to no avail—because there was nobody!

“Anchang County!

You’re the representatives from Anchang County, right?” The male receptionist, holding the documents in his hand, asked Liu Hun.

“Yes!” Liu Hun nodded, looking at the booth, feeling his heart grow colder by the second!

“Then there’s no mistake!

This is the place!” The male receptionist said, preparing to leave, but as he saw the expressions on Liu Hun and Huang Zishan’s faces, he couldn’t help but say, “Brother, did you offend someone or something?”

Liu Hun was taken aback, not sure why the male receptionist would ask this, so he said, “Maybe, but I haven’t paid much attention.

Why do you ask?”

The male receptionist pulled Liu Hun close, then pointed to a booth situated at a very prime location at the Crossroad, “See that?

That was supposed to be Anchang County’s original booth.”

“Then why were we moved here?” Huang Zishan asked, noticeably upset.

The male receptionist shrugged and said, “Well, that’s something you’ll have to ask yourselves!

This spot was originally Hongyuan County’s booth; no idea why the higher-ups suddenly decided to swap it with yours.

So, it has to be swapped!

I’m just a gofer here.”

“That’s just too much, bullying us like that!

It’s not okay!

I’m going to talk to them about this!” Huang Zishan was about to head over to the Hongyuan County booth when Liu Hun pulled her back.

Ever since she had suffered humiliation from Tian Zhenzhen and Manager Wu last time, she had no desire to endure such treatment again.

However, she hadn’t even taken a step before Liu Hun pulled her back.

“Calm down, this isn’t Anchang County, much less Taiping Town.

If we cause a big scene, the organizers might cancel our booth, and all our hard work would be for nothing!” Liu Hun held Huang Zishan back as he spoke, and in reality, he wasn’t scared at all; he could turn this exhibition upside down with no problem on his part.

But that would be pointless.

Liu Hun was here this time to sell products and make money, not to pick fights.

When it was time to use his fists, he’d use his fists; when it was time to use his brains, he’d use his brains!

Huang Zishan, arms crossed and fuming, glared at Liu Hun.

Her eyes clearly said, I’m not going!

Just waiting to see how you’re going to handle this!

Liu Hun asked the male receptionist, “We can prepare cooked food here, right?”

The receptionist waved his hand and said, “As long as you don’t set fire to the exhibition, it’s fine.

Even if you did, as long as you can afford to compensate, there’s no problem.”

With that answer, Liu Hun felt confident and slipped the receptionist five hundred yuan.

“Could you open this glass door for us?”

“You want to use that area outside?” The receptionist swiftly pocketed the money and then opened the glass door.

As soon as the glass door swung wide open, a gust of wind blew in.

“What’s the catch?” Liu Hun asked without answering the receptionist’s question.

The receptionist laughed and said, “No catch, really.

This exhibition hall belongs to Xiangyu Company.

But that area outside isn’t under our jurisdiction, and no one really minds it.

Just one more thing: it’s quite windy here and hardly anyone comes by.

Do whatever you like with it!” He then left.

“Hey!

What kind of crappy place is this for a booth!

Hurry up and take a look!

This is just hilarious, I’m dying from laughter over here!

Who are you selling to out there?

Ghosts?” A bearded man strolled up to Liu Hun’s booth and started shouting mockingly.

With the bearded man causing such a fuss, soon enough, a crowd of onlookers gathered, all of them from nearby booths.

Hardly any visitors to the exhibition had bothered to come over to this spot.

“Hey!

What’s it to you where our booth is?

Mind your own business instead of blabbering nonsense here!” Huang Zishan snorted, visibly displeased, in response.

The bearded man stroked his beard, snickered, and said, “This chick’s got spunk.

Just so you know, clearly— I’m the representative of Hongyuan County!

This booth was actually mine until just a day ago!

I especially came over to see what unlucky sod got it, and voilà, it’s you guys!”

The people around them laughed along, not for any other particular reason but seeing the worst booth had fallen into Liu Hun’s hands brought them some relief.

They felt better at the thought that someone else was worse off than they were, and so they joined in the laughter.

“See!

You don’t go looking for trouble, and trouble finds you just to mock us!

It’s infuriating!” Huang Zishan said, stamping her foot with frustration while complaining to Liu Hun.

Liu Hun smiled slightly, displaying a leader’s confidence as he said to Huang Zishan, “I can turn this place into the most enviable and drool-worthy booth in the whole exhibition hall, and I can bet to tear off that guy’s beard and slap him twice.

You believe me?”

Before Huang Zishan could reply, the bearded man clearly understood and immediately retorted, “You?!

Look at you!

You dare make such a claim?!

Little lady, don’t be fooled by him!

If he was really capable, he would’ve used his connections to secure the booth, wouldn’t need to cry over spilled milk here.”

“Use crooked backdoor deals?

I find them disgusting!” Liu Hun replied earnestly to the bearded man.

The bearded man didn’t understand that remark, but Huang Zishan got it completely—it was the same joke she made about Secretary Zhou before, and she couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Liu Hun walked up to the bearded man and pointed at him, saying, “Listen up!

I want everyone here to hear this clearly!

I, Liu Hun, am going to make this the best booth of the entire exhibition!

And furthermore…”

Before Liu Hun could finish, the bearded man interrupted him with a scoff, “Hey, kid!

You’re really full of it, aren’t you?”

“Why don’t we make a bet on it?

You game?” Liu Hun stared at the bearded man, dangling the bait, waiting for the bearded man to bite.

To Liu Hun’s surprise, the bearded man bit hard, with a grandiose gesture, declaring, “Why not?

What’s the bet?!”
