Chapter 746: Chapter 694: Shocking

“Liu Hun!” Three days later, just after Liu Hun had stepped out of his room after taking a shower, he heard the roaring sound of a car from outside the house.

Stepping out of the house and into the outdoors, Liu Hun saw Xu Shimin standing at his doorstep, which made him pause subtly in surprise.

“What’s the matter, you’ve come alone this time?” Liu Hun asked with some surprise as he looked at Xu Shimin.

Liu Hun had almost forgotten about the matter with Xu Shimin. After a trip to the Provincial City, even if Xu Shimin’s father hadn’t agreed, Liu Hun knew he could rely on Zhang Fan or Cheng Feng for help.

“If I can give you what you want, what can you give me?” Xu Shimin asked, his face a few shades more serious and less frivolous than before.

“Right now, I can’t promise you anything, but what I can offer is a different, exciting life. I’ve looked into your background; if you’re satisfied with your current life, or wish to continue living surrounded by people’s flattery, then forget everything I said before. I can offer you an apology too,” Liu Hun said with a serious look while facing Xu Shimin.

Liu Hun was somewhat surprised that Xu Shimin had taken the initiative to find him. Liu Hun hadn’t held much hope before, but Xu Shimin had now come to him in earnest…

“What do you want to do in the future?” a flash of sharpness crossed Xu Shimin’s eyes as he sought to confirm the truthfulness of Liu Hun’s words before deciding to assist him lightly.

“Turn Shanghe Village into a world-class village…”

“And then?”

“And then, I’ve already secured a hundred million in initial investment funds,” Liu Hun said calmly.

“Fine, I agree with you, but if I don’t see the results I want within the next six months, I’ll leave,” Xu Shimin stated.

The corners of Liu Hun’s mouth lifted slightly. Although Zhang Fan and Cheng Feng were also coming to help him in Shanghe Village, their main connections were still in the Provincial City. Now that Shanghe Village fell under Fenglin County’s jurisdiction, having Xu Shimin’s help would naturally make future endeavors much more convenient.

“Happy to collaborate,” Liu Hun approached Xu Shimin with a smile and extended his hand towards him.

“Now I want to know your detailed plans moving forward,” Xu Shimin said coolly, ignoring Liu Hun’s handshake.

“You should know about the Great Yang Pill by now, right? Come on, I’ll take you inside to take a look,” Liu Hun said and then walked towards the house.

Xu Shimin followed Liu Hun into the house, looking around to see Liu Hun’s room filled with densely packed porcelain vases—at a rough count, at least a couple of hundred bottles.

According to the information he had gotten from Lu Chuan, one bottle was worth a million; one hundred bottles would be a hundred million in revenue. Such high-profit investment was terrifyingly impressive.

“All these porcelain vases are filled with Great Yang Pills? And according to your previous price, wouldn’t this mean you stand to earn one or two hundred million easily?” In that moment, Xu Shimin’s face was dumbfounded.

He had seen quick money-making before, but not as swift as Liu Hun’s, which was essentially like grabbing money—no, even more terrifying than that.

“There are also Beauty Pills here. If handled well, they’re worth far more than that. Creating a world-class village out of Shanghe isn’t something you can achieve with just a little bit of money,” Liu Hun said, shaking his head with a light laugh.

“I’m starting to believe you now,” Xu Shimin said with a serious look and slightly narrowed eyes. “But before that, besides managing these Medicine Pills, there’s another key point, and that is the brand!”

Hearing this, surprise flashed across Liu Hun’s eyes. However, he did not express it aloud, merely nodding, signaling Xu Shimin to continue.

“A brand means establishing the reputation of the Medicine Pills and ensuring that everyone remembers the name of Shanghe Village. If possible, in the future, if people want to buy Medicine Pills, they should come to Shanghe Village in person, or those visiting could be gifted with a pill,” Xu Shimin spoke confidently.

“Old Xu, I originally thought you were just a spoiled rich kid. Even if I brought you to Shanghe Village, it was just to have you in name, at least to make things easier with your father. Now I realize, you’re a hidden gem I’ve stumbled upon,” Liu Hun said with a smile looking at Xu Shimin.

“Did you already guess that I would come to you?” This time, it was Xu Shimin who was taken aback.

“Initially, I hadn’t guessed it, but after seeing your expression later, I knew you would come to Shanghe Village. Whether to find a new path in life or seek revenge against me, I’d take you on,” Liu Hun explained.

“The things I just mentioned, you’ve already planned for them, haven’t you?” Xu Shimin wasn’t concerned about Liu Hun’s previous words but kept his gaze fixed on Liu Hun as he continued to inquire.

“Correct. If I’m going to do something and don’t have a plan, naturally it won’t succeed. Wait till the road construction is finished; then two more people will come to help you. In the meantime, I will work on establishing the brand,” Liu Hun said earnestly.

“If you’ve already thought of everything, what did you just agree to do for me?” Xu Shimin asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Me? Why, I plan to be a hands-off manager, treating beautiful ladies and playing games that are good for the body and mind every day, isn’t that better?” Liu Hun’s words nearly made Xu Shimin choke with anger.

However, Liu Hun might say those things, but Xu Shimin didn’t believe that’s the kind of person Liu Hun was. To have such ambitious plans at his age, if Liu Hun had intended to be a wastrel, there would have been no need for him to go to such great lengths.

“Here’s my ID card. You go back in the next two days and get the paperwork done for me. In two days’ time, you’ll be busy.” Liu Hun said with a slight smile.

Xu Shimin gave Liu Hun a deep look, said nothing, and then turned to leave.

Xu Shimin and Liu Hun were actually similar kind of person, once they decided something, they wouldn’t turn back. The only difference was that Xu Shimin wanted to prove himself, while Liu Hun’s goal was to protect those he wished to protect, as well as to exact a blood debt from the enemies of his past life.

Pulling out his cellphone, Liu Hun directly dialed a phone number that was over a dozen digits long.

In the capital of the United States, a woman wearing high heels was sitting in the conference room of a building. She had perfect facial features, without a single flaw, and her brows were slightly knitted, revealing a touch of boredom.

“Alice, do you have any issues with the upcoming tour’s arrangements?” Asked a middle-aged woman sitting beside Alice, smiling at her.

“You can handle that, my job is just the concerts,” Alice replied calmly, though her beautiful eyes were fixed on an old cell phone lying on the table.

Memories began to float to the surface. It was a cold winter, Alice was just eight years old when her parents died of cancer, and she had inherited their cancer. While wearing a thin coat and shivering in a street corner, a boy suddenly appeared before her.

He then took her to a nearby motel, took out a dozen silver needles, and completely cured her cancer. He also gave her a bank card with several hundred thousand on it.

“I want you to study hard and become a top figure in this world. If there’s trouble, I’ll text you or call you. Remember, never try to contact me.” With that, the little boy threw her a phone and turned away.

That frail figure and his domineering eyes became a deep, indelible memory of Alice’s lifetime.

Over the years, she had become a globally recognized star, a goddess acknowledged by the whole world for her looks and figure. But as for that boy from her memories, aside from two messages asking if she was well, there had been no further contact.

“Dinglingling…” The old phone interrupted Alice’s reverie, and as it flickered with a glaring light, excitement immediately appeared on Alice’s somewhat vacant face.

“Hello…” Alice pressed the answer button, her voice trembling. She was the only one who knew this number, so no one else would call her on it.

At that moment, a goddess who could drive men around the world mad was trembling at the sound of a phone call, and in an instant, everyone in the conference room was taken aback.

“It’s me.” A calm voice came through the phone.

Hearing this voice, Alice’s eyes filled with tears. After so many years, he finally deigned to call her.

Having become a star that commanded the world’s attention, she lacked for nothing; whatever she wanted, she could have at any time. But him, the only one she couldn’t have.

“Do you have time now? If you do, come to Fenglin County, Huaxia East South Province. I need…” Before Liu Hun could finish speaking, Alice immediately said excitedly, “I do, I have time.”

“Okay, give me a call when you arrive in the Southeast Province, and I’ll pick you up.” Liu Hun said and then hung up the phone.

If he wanted to establish a brand, then a spokesperson was essential. And if there was anyone in the world who was the best fit for being an image spokesperson, it had to be Alice.

In his past life, Liu Hun felt pity for Alice when she was little, but he never expected her to achieve so much.

But back then, Liu Hun yearned to be free like the clouds and wild cranes, and naturally, he did not seek out Alice. In his view, Alice achieved today’s success all on her own effort and it had not much to do with him.

Now, however, it was different. Liu Hun needed a favor from Alice, so he had to try calling. He had not expected that, after so many years, this number would still work and that Alice would agree immediately.

Putting down the phone, Alice looked at the old device in her hand, stunned for a moment. Pressing down her joy and excitement, she said to her agent, “Book me a ticket to Huaxia East South Province right away.”

“But you have a major concert in London coming up…” Still reeling from the shock, the middle-aged woman spoke without thinking.
