Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter 65: Chapter 67 Exposing Shortcomings



The shrimp that Chun Tao served were as long as two palms, the same size as the lobsters from the sea, but their appearance was that of river shrimp.

It happened to be that they were discussing the shrimp from the Lily Hotel.

Song Xi pointed at the plate of shrimp and exclaimed excitedly, "These shrimp are so big, could they be the kind from the Lily Hotel?"

"You're not wrong, the shrimp there are supplied by me," Long Xiaoshan said with a smile.

"Really?" Song Xi's eyes lit up.

The two male public servants' eyes also shone brightly.

Shrimp that cost 1888 yuan each, and were still not available for purchase even with money.

They never imagined they'd have the opportunity to taste something so expensive.

To think that one of these shrimp would cost them an entire month's salary.

Although Shen Yuerong wasn't astonished to hear about shrimp that cost 1888 yuan, as she had seen dishes costing tens of thousands of yuan in the Capital City, it was still astonishing in this rural backwater.

She found it hard to believe that there could be shrimp in Niu Y County that sold for such a high price.

At this moment, seeing Song Xi hurriedly pick up a piece of shrimp with her chopsticks, the two male public servants also forgot their place and didn't wait for Shen Yuerong to start before they picked up a piece.

And put it in their mouths.

The three of them were stunned.

For a long time, they couldn't snap back to reality.

It was as if what they were eating wasn't shrimp but something as magical as a "Celestial Spirit."

"Are you exaggerating?" Shen Yuerong shook her head with a smile, finding the trio's reaction overly dramatic as she casually picked up a piece of shrimp and put it in her mouth.

Instantly, she too was amazed.

The deliciousness spread out from her taste buds, and she was completely immersed in it.

She had tasted countless delicacies, even those prepared by Michelin three-star chefs, but what she was tasting now was in no way inferior to those chefs' creations, feeling even better.

Because after eating, there was a warm sensation flowing in her stomach.

Soon, the room was silent except for the sound of eating.

Everyone was engrossed in their meal.

After a while, the roomful of shrimp, weighing more than a pound, was completely devoured by Shen Yuerong and the others.

The two male public servants had completely let go of their dignity, vigorously cleaning the leftover shrimp shells.

Shen Yuerong still concerned herself with maintaining a semblance of dignity.

She ate the least of the group.

Nevertheless, even so, she felt a surge of substantial energy after eating.

In the past few days, her body had been weakened by the entanglement of ghosts.

She had been quite tired after walking around earlier, yet now she felt no fatigue at all, brimming with vitality.

"Xiaoshan, is this shrimp somehow medicinal? I feel really strong after eating it," Shen Yuerong asked.

"Indeed, my shrimp are raised with herbal nourishment. They're good for strengthening the body; they enhance beauty and nourish the complexion for women, and for men, they greatly invigorate," Long Xiaoshan explained without any reservation.

The two male public servants' eyes brightened, as they indeed felt a potent sense of vigor, different from the usual aggressive stimulants.

"That's really great, but it's just too expensive, unaffordable," the older Officer Li said, feeling more acutely the importance of a man's virility with age.

Isn't there a saying, "Youth doesn't know the value of 'it,' in old age one weeps for an empty yearning of 'it.'"

"Haha, what's there to worry about? Brother Li, Brother Zhang, I'll give each of you a few to take home later," Long Xiaoshan offered.

"Ah, that won't do, that's too costly," the two male public servants, despite being very tempted, resisted because the director was right there, how could they dare accept it openly.

"It's expensive only when sold outside, I raise them myself, which costs hardly anything. Director Shen, this doesn't count as bribery, right?" Long Xiaoshan asked with a chuckle.

"Just this once, no more exceptions," Shen Yuerong glared at Long Xiaoshan.

The two male officers were overjoyed.

The more they looked at Long Xiaoshan, the more pleasing he appeared. Being a boss really made a difference; he knew how to handle things.

Paying little mind to the shrimp, they were worth several months of their salaries, and just now Song Xi had mentioned that even money couldn't buy these.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaoshan," Song Xi's address had changed, sounding coy.

Originally thought he was just a small-time farmer, but this farmer, once he owned a big farm and could breed shrimp worth more than a thousand each, and vegetables that were the cheapest at sixty to seventy a plate,

The perception changed.

On a second look, aside from being a bit dark, Long Xiaoshan's attire was somewhat rustic.

Actually, he was quite handsome.

He had a bit of the charm of that Hong Kong Island star, Guzai.

This prompted the female university student to start acting up, saying, "Brother Xiaoshan, with you being so young and successful, surely many women like you, do you have a girlfriend? I can introduce you to my classmate."

"Yo, little Song, you're not being honest, are you? Your classmate, huh? I think it's little Song yourself," Director Li said, laughing heartily.

Everyone began to tease her.

Song Xi was quite attractive, and she had the status of a civil servant to boot.

However, Long Xiaoshan had recently met too many excellent women. Whether it was Su Wan or Shangguan Baihe, they were both exceptional, and Song Xi paled in comparison to them.

Moreover, with Song Xi seated next to Shen Yuerong, she seemed like a mere leaf to Yuerong's flower, one simply should not compare, Long Xiaoshan thought to himself.

He chuckled a few times and responded with just a few perfunctory words.

At that moment, Long Dashan came in and said, "Little Xiaoshan, the village head is here."

"Long Fakui?" Long Xiaoshan stood up.

Walking to the door, he saw Long Fakui and a few other village officials come in. Long Fakui smiled and said, "Xiaoshan, I heard the director arrived."

"Yes," Long Xiaoshan nodded as he spoke.

Although Long Fakui's face still wore a smile, his eyes revealed a hint of darkness as he said, "Where's the director? Such a big event, why wasn't I informed?"

At this, Shen Yuerong also came out, saying, "Are you the village head of Longyang Village?"

"Yes, I am, Director Shen, hello, hello. Hearing about your visit, our Longyang Village is truly honored," Long Fakui had been to the county office and recognized Shen Yuerong, and hurriedly greeted her with compliments.

"Your village is still quite backward. It's rare for someone to invest here. With talented people like Xiaoshan willing to help the village develop and lead the villagers to wealth, you as the village head should fully support him," Shen Yuerong instructed.

"Of course, of course. Xiaoshan is our Longyang Village's talent. Although he went to prison for rape halfway through, young people are always going to make mistakes. Being able to reform and help the village develop is very good, and I definitely support him," Long Fakui said, still smiling.

Long Xiaoshan's face darkened, and even the people beside him showed a change in their expression.

This seemed like praising Long Xiaoshan, but it was clear that it was a move to disclose his shortcomings.

The female university student, Song Xi, changed color and moved a bit away from Long Xiaoshan.

Shen Yuerong frowned slightly.

She knew Long Xiaoshan had been in prison, but she was unclear about the details.

Long Fakui, with a smile, glanced at Long Xiaoshan. Directors were women, and hearing about rape, they would surely be repelled.

He said, "Director, I also set up a factory at the other end of the village. I, too, am looking to help the villagers develop. Since you're here, you must come and give us some guidance. As the village head, I will surely make the whole village prosperous." Discover magic on m_v_l_e_m_p_y_r

Shen Yuerong saw right through it.

This village head was clearly trying to play opposite to Long Xiaoshan.

"Since I've come, let's go have a look," Shen Yuerong said after a moment's thought.

Upon hearing this, Long Fakui was overjoyed.

He gave Long Xiaoshan a triumphant look, thinking to himself, kid, you're still too green to compete with me.
