The village beauty and me!

"Where are the things?"

"What's going on? Could it really be a ghost?" Xu Huifang muttered, her face visibly turning pale.

When she first arrived, she heard from others that strange things often happened in the woods outside the village.

Some say she's a female ghost in white, others say she's a white-haired monster.

He described it so vividly, as if it were the real story.

Xu Huifang, having attended university, was a serious materialist.

I didn't originally believe in ghosts or gods.

However, given the current circumstances, he was already feeling guilty for stealing Chen Huan's fish.

When things you keep close to you disappear one after another without you even noticing, it's impossible not to start having all sorts of wild thoughts.

Just then, the fat man played a trick on us, cupping his hand to his mouth.

It started making ghostly noises, wailing and wailing.

"Oh my god!" Xu Huifang was so frightened that she broke down completely.

Barefoot, stepping on the broken stones by the river, wincing in pain, he hopped and stumbled as he ran towards the village.

Fatty and Chen Huan were laughing so hard they were practically rolling on the floor, hiding behind a big rock.

"I never expected Xu Huifang to be so timid."

  

"When you were arguing with me during the day, I thought you had some backbone, but it turns out you're just a pretty face with no substance," the fat man teased with a grin.

Then he turned to Chen Huan and asked, "Brother Huan, should we chase after her and scare her again?"

"If this kind of thing leaves a deep enough psychological scar, Xu Huifang will definitely never dare to come to the river again."

"At least I don't dare come at night."

Chen Huan waved his hand, "Never mind, everything has its limits."

"Didn't you see that Village Chief Xu was so scared he almost wet his pants?"

"If this causes any problems, or scares someone to death, we'll be in big trouble."

"Just teach her a lesson and that'll be enough."

"We still have important business to attend to."

The fat man blinked, looking very curious. "What important matter is it?"

"Which widow have you taken a fancy to?"

"I'll give you a piece of my mind." Chen Huan kicked him.

He then pulled out the ordinary little medicine bottle containing the golden elixir from his pocket.

Upon seeing the medicine bottle, the fat man's eyes lit up. "What, you changed your mind? Planning to give me another one?"

Chen Huan rolled her eyes at him. "Why would I give it to you? This stuff is for feeding the fish."

"What?"

"You won't give it to me, but you're going to use it to feed the fish?" The fat man gritted his teeth, somewhat bewildered.

"I've been feeding these fish for almost half a month now."

"Otherwise, how could they grow so many and be so plump?" Chen Huan explained calmly.

The fat man swallowed hard. "Your thing is really amazing."

At this point, the fat man suddenly showed a touching expression on his face, his eyes fixed on Chen Huan.

"Damn it, why are you staring at me like that? My sexual orientation is normal." Chen Huan took a half step back, staring at the fat man warily.

The next second, if this fat man dares to do anything unusual, he will definitely defeat him in one move and kick him into the river.

Fatty chuckled twice. "I just wanted to say a few words of thanks."

"But I'm too clumsy with words to express my respect and gratitude to you, Brother Huan."

"Zhao Yaru talked herself hoarse, but she still couldn't get the secret of the Golden Elixir from you."

"Not only did you give me one, turning me into a little superhero, but you also talked to me about so many things. I'm really touched."

Chen Huan smiled. "Can you compare yourself to her?"

"All she wanted was to steal my technology and secret formulas so she could use them to make money for her Zhao family."

"You're my brother, but completely different."

"Alright, stop with the sentimentality and let's get started walking upstream."

The fat man asked again, puzzled, "Weren't you going to feed the fish? Why are you swimming upstream?"

Chen Huan clicked his tongue. "Are you crazy? Hasn't Xu Huifang been keeping an eye on my breeding area the whole time?"

"She could bring in a so-called professional team at any time to conduct a valuation here."

"Now I have a large collection of high-priced river delicacies here. I can easily make tens of thousands of yuan just by catching a net."

"If they come to that conclusion, will my contract still be valid?"

The fat man suddenly realized, "So you need to go upstream to feed the fish, and lure all these fish, shrimp and crabs that are used to eating golden pills to the upstream."

"When Xu Huifang's people arrived, they couldn't find anything in the river, and they were completely dumbfounded, right?"

Chen Huan smiled with satisfaction. "Looks like you're not stupid after all. That's exactly what I meant."

"Trying to play these fancy tricks on me? I can outmaneuver her."

"Now I can't wait to see Xu Huifang's disappointed and bewildered expression."

In fact, with Chen Huan's current strength, even if he gave up the contract for the river section, it wouldn't matter much.

He could even contract other water resources and cultivate top-quality river delicacies there as well.

But sometimes people just have to prove themselves.

Faced with Xu Huifang's aggressive and domineering attitude, Chen Huan's fighting spirit was immediately aroused.

Therefore, he must protect the resources he has at all costs.

Whether it's this river or the forest behind it.

Next, Chen Huan led the fat man to throw fragments of the Golden Elixir into the water along the river.

There is absolutely no need for extra operations or delicate techniques.

The fish, shrimp, and crabs that had long been accustomed to the taste of the golden elixir instantly surged upstream against the current like a tide.

Chen Huan was quite familiar with the environment here.

He knew that there was also a fairly large pool of water upstream.

His goal was to attract all the fish, shrimp, and crabs there.

And this goal was achieved very quickly.

Seeing that a large number of fish, shrimp, and crabs had been stored in the pond, Chen Huan clapped his hands in satisfaction and put the small medicine bottle containing the golden pill back.

The fat man looked around at the surroundings. "This is already within the territory of another village, isn't it?"

"Aren't you afraid someone will steal your fish and take advantage of you by bringing them here?"

Chen Huan said with a smile, "It's a long story, but we have to thank Miss Zhao for it."

"The person in charge of this village knows whose fish these are, so even if he had six times the courage, he wouldn't dare to do anything reckless."

"Fish, shrimp, and crabs are absolutely safe here."

Chen Huan and the fat man quickly returned to the riverbank and continued drinking and chatting.

It was well into the night.

He crawled into the wooden shed and fell fast asleep.

Before long, it was dawn.

Chen Huan was in a daze, feeling as if something heavy was pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.

Before he could even open his eyes and see what was going on, he suddenly heard someone shout beside him, "Chen Huan, Fatty, what are you two doing?"

"I never expected you guys had such a hobby!"
