Chapter 1203: Chapter 1203:
The sound of roosters crowing once again awakened the sleeping earth.
In the old house, Lin Yifan, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.
Even though he’d been meditating for only two hours, he felt particularly refreshed.
He rummaged through the bottom of a box, found a piece of red cloth, and wrapped the ginseng covered in birch bark and moss to put in his backpack.
Today, he depended on it to exchange for money.
"Beep beep!"
Just as he had fed his mother medicine and was about to leave, the sound of a car horn suddenly came from the doorway.
Curious, Lin Yifan pushed open the door, only to see Shen Shiyao riding a pink lady’s scooter.
Seeing him come out, Shen Shiyao took a helmet from the back seat and tossed it to Lin Yifan.
"Are you ready to head out?"
She was so excited about this first official date that she could hardly sleep.
"You’re not planning to ride this, are you? I called Xizhu, and he’s heading to the county today for business. He can give us a lift."
Lin Yifan took the helmet and walked toward the scooter.
It takes an hour to cross the mountain ridge from Taoyuan Village to the town.
After that, they still have to take a two-hour bus to reach the county.
This little scooter is probably not up for the task.
"No need, I guarantee we’ll get to the county before eight, and it won’t affect your business."
Shen Shiyao smiled mysteriously.
She had spoken with such assurance that Lin Yifan felt it was hard to refuse.
He stepped forward, took the handlebars, while Shen Shiyao tactfully moved to the back seat.
Her wide sunglasses covered most of her face,
yet they couldn’t hide her tall nose and enchanting red lips,
wearing a light yellow tank top with a flowing white outer layer, outlining a captivating waistline.
The white skirt below made her look like a fairy descended to the mortal realm.
"Vroom..."
The scooter roared to life and headed out of the village.
Shen Shiyao sat sideways on the back seat, wrapping her right arm around Lin Yifan’s waist.
Her whole body leaned against his back, her cheeks pink.
Along the way, the gentle breeze brushed against her, tossing her long hair.
But it couldn’t scatter the smile that felt like spring breeze on her face.
"Stop here."
An hour later, under Shen Shiyao’s direction, Lin Yifan parked the scooter in the courtyard of a two-story building in town.
"Is this a relative’s house?"
Lin Yifan, having removed his helmet, looked curiously at the small courtyard before him.
It was clean and tidy, almost as if no one lived there.
"No, it’s a rented house."
Shen Shiyao tidied up her hair, blown messy by the wind.
She smiled mysteriously.
"A rented house?"
Lin Yifan looked at her with curiosity. She doesn’t live in town, so why rent a place?
"It’s not advisable to be too flashy at school, but I have lots of things, so I can only store them here in town, I come stay a couple of days when I have time. Oh, here’s the key. You can come if you ever need to. There’s a gym and sauna inside, very comfortable."
Shen Shiyao tossed a bunch of keys to Lin Yifan.
Before he could say anything more, the nearby roller shutter door slowly rose.
A Toyota Prado appeared before Lin Yifan.
A luxury car worth hundreds of thousands, impressively majestic.
It’s absolutely many people’s dream ride.
"I thought the dorm was already impressive enough, but I didn’t expect you had another surprise."
Lin Yifan felt a mixture of emotions in his heart.
"Don’t they say a woman’s like a book? You need to read slowly to understand her better. Time’s ticking, let’s get going."
Shen Shiyao smiled brightly, opened the passenger door, and sat inside.
Lin Yifan no longer hesitated and got into the driver’s seat.
The car roared to life, the deep rumbling echoing behind them.
With a gentle press on the accelerator, the powerful thrust combined with stability was indeed beyond what a cheap car could offer.
And with a stunning beauty sitting in the passenger seat.
This might just be what every man dreams of.
"Do you think this ginseng can sell for 800,000 yuan? Then harvesting herbs would make more than running a clinic, wouldn’t it?"
Looking at the Wild Ginseng wrapped in the red cloth, Shen Shiyao asked curiously.
"Grandpa used to say that windfall wealth shouldn’t be exhausted. Leave seven parts for the children, understand balance, and you can achieve anything."
Lin Yifan held the steering wheel, his mind filled with his grandpa’s earnest teachings.
Back then, grandpa took up being a mountain runner to support the family. Yesterday’s method was also passed down from him.
But he instructed clearly, it should never be used lightly unless absolutely necessary.
In his memory, there was only one time during a locust outbreak in the village when grandpa used it to help the villagers.
Otherwise, with this skill, extracting the Heavenly Essence and Earthly Splendor from Black Bear Valley.
At least they’d start as billionaires.
"You really miss your grandpa, don’t you?"
Shen Shiyao was eager to understand Lin Yifan, paying attention to every detail about him.
"When I was three, I got a strange illness and was at death’s door. Grandpa stayed with me for seven days and nights. My mom said when he walked out of the room holding me, his black hair had turned completely white, and he aged twenty years overnight. My father disappeared when I was eight, and grandpa passed away when I was twelve. I didn’t even have time to repay his kindness, although he’s not here anymore, I’ll remember every word he said."
Lin Yifan sighed.
It was grandpa’s love that made up for the pain of losing his father too early.
At the same time, Yifan was also the name he chose for himself.
Along the way, the two listened to music and chatted.
What would have been a two-hour journey took only one hour before they reached the county town.
Parking the car, Shen Shiyao eagerly stood on the car door, gazing at the distant bustling crowd.
"Wow, it’s so lively!"
The market in Northeast was extremely lively.
A street specially planned, crowded with all kinds of goods.
Be it wholesale or retail, or home-produced goods.
All can be sold at the market.
Each time the market opens, it feels like New Year.
People from nearby villages, if available, would come for a stroll even if they don’t buy anything.
Seeing Lin Yifan emerge from the car trunk after fiddling for a while, Shen Shiyao was stunned.
"What... are you doing?"
He was wearing filthy camouflage clothes, with a ragged baseball cap.
His boots, who knows how old, were loose.
"I’m here to sell ginseng, not myself. If I don’t dress like this, people might think I’m a fraud. I have to live up to the image in their minds for survival."
Lin Yifan tucked his hands into his sleeves and deliberately lowered the hat’s brim.
"I must say, dressed like this, you do look the part."
Shen Shiyao covered her mouth, stifling a laugh.
Moments ago, he was a stylish man, now he looks like a bumpkin.
"You have to love the work you do, paying off debts depends on it."
Lin Yifan chose a bustling spot and squatted by the roadside.
Displaying the wild ginseng on the ground, he didn’t utter a word.
Shen Shiyao asked curiously, "Aren’t you going to shout and advertise?"
"Good stuff doesn’t need shouting, outsiders wouldn’t understand."
Lin Yifan didn’t lift his head, remaining squatted there.
Shen Shiyao stood beside him, curiously observing the surroundings.
"Miss, why don’t you wait in the car or take a stroll? Standing here isn’t doing any good."
Lin Yifan pushed his hat brim, looking up.
"I’m here to keep you company, am I bothering you?"
Shen Shiyao brushed her hair aside.
"With a beauty like you standing here, who’d look at the goods on the ground? If you keep standing, my business might collapse."
Lin Yifan covered his face, utterly helpless.
Everyone loves to look at beautiful women, who’d care to look at the ginseng on the ground?
