The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Ling Feng went downstairs and, upon arriving at the lobby, saw a young man sitting on the row of sofas by the window.

As soon as he saw him, Ling Feng immediately remembered who this person was!

He walked over, smiling as he asked, "So you’re called Sun Shaofeng?"

"Mr. Ling, hello. Please have a seat!"

Sun Shaofeng said expressionlessly as he stood up.

Ling Feng sat on the sofa and crossed his legs casually, asking, "What do you want to talk about?"

"Mr. Ling didn’t attend the Gemstone Conference this afternoon?"

Sun Shaofeng didn’t answer directly, but instead threw out a casual question.

Ling Feng glanced at him, "Where I go doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, Mr. Sun. By the way, how did you know I was staying here?"

Sun Shaofeng chuckled, "Finding someone’s whereabouts is not something I’ve failed to do yet; it’s actually not difficult at all."

Seeing that confident smile typical of wealthy young masters on his face, Ling Feng, who hadn’t had much of a liking for him, felt even more annoyed now.

He snorted coldly, "It seems Mr. Sun comes from a distinguished family, with a certain background, huh!"

Sun Shaofeng looked at him, aware that his words contained disdain, but didn’t mind and nodded, "It’s alright. In Huaxia, my family does have some strength. Mr. Ling, I am here to ask you for a favor."

"What favor?" Ling Feng asked nonchalantly.

"I’ve come looking for a very special stone, which I believe shouldn’t be a problem with your capabilities," said Sun Shaofeng.

"A special stone, what is that?" Ling Feng asked, feigning surprise.

"It’s just very special. Finding it shouldn’t be a problem for you, considering you found such pure jade."

Sun Shaofeng clearly didn’t know what the stone was either, so he couldn’t answer.

Ling Feng just responded "Oh," and then asked with a smile, "If it’s very special, that means its value must be extremely high. Why should I help you instead of keeping it for myself?"

"Of course, it’s no problem. But Mr. Ling should be clear that even though you’ve set up Ling Corporation at home, it’s just a local enterprise, quite weak in survival. If any problems arise, it could easily collapse!" Sun Shaofeng said lightly.

Ling Feng’s eyebrows arched up. "Are you threatening me?"

"Of course not, I’m just kindly reminding you," Sun Shaofeng said casually.

Ling Feng chuckled, "Since you could find out about Ling Corporation, didn’t you research a bit more?"

"Are you referring to the He family matter?"

Sun Shaofeng smiled, "I’m aware of the He family situation. He Qian is eager for revenge, it’s no surprise to get face-slapped after coming to provoke on her own initiative."

"Oh, it seems you also look down on the He family!" Ling Feng nodded.

"The surname He holds strength, but it’s confined to the Capital City, there’s still a gap compared to my Sun Family," Sun Shaofeng said with pride.

Ling Feng couldn’t care less about the Sun surname’s strength and thus changed the subject, "So are you saying, if I refuse to help, I’ll be bringing big trouble on myself?"

"Exactly, which is why it’s best for Mr. Ling to cooperate with me. After the matter is settled, I can give you two billion as a token of gratitude. Isn’t that a win-win?" Sun Shaofeng said with a smile.

Ling Feng was taken aback, not an act this time, but genuinely shocked. The other party was offering such a generous sum, right out of the gate no less—two billion!

This price was even more expensive than his top-grade Spirit Stone. What was so miraculous about that stone?

Seeing his expression, Sun Shaofeng knew he had succeeded, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Ling can think it over. It’s not too late to reply to me tomorrow morning!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up, adjusted his suit, and casually left.

Ling Feng watched Sun Shaofeng leave the room, and then followed after him.

His original plan was to follow the man to see where he lived, and then figure out whom he was in contact with, making it easier to identify who was backing him.

But just as he stepped outside, he happened to see a middle-aged man getting out of a car. Their eyes met, and Li Huai immediately said with a smile, "Brother, I knew I’d find you here!"

"Uh, Brother Li, what brings you here?" Ling Feng asked.

"I didn’t see you this afternoon, so I thought something might have happened to you. It took some effort, but I found out you’re staying around here, so I came to check on you!"

Li Huai approached with a smile, patting Ling Feng’s shoulder, "Brother, are you heading out?"

"Yeah, I wanted to go out and experience the nightlife in Guo City!" Ling Feng quickly replied.

"Alright, follow me, and I’ll take you to a good place!" Li Huai let out a sly laugh, a hint of implication in his words.

Ling Feng, of course, knew what he meant. The city was full of places for pleasure and leisure, great for a man to spend money.

However, he definitely wasn’t interested. With so many beautiful girls around him, why would he fancy those fleeting encounters?

So Ling Feng shook his head, "Let’s not, I’m not interested in those kinds of places!"

"That’s true, with such beautiful girls around, why would you be?"

Li Huai let out a chuckle, "Then how about we find a place to grab a coffee instead?"

Knowing that he no longer had the chance to track Sun Shaofeng, Ling Feng could only nod, "Okay, let’s go with what Brother Li suggests then!"

Thus the two of them left the hotel entrance and walked along the street, not far before they saw a coffee shop.

The shop was not crowded. They found a quiet corner and sat down. Ling Feng couldn’t help asking, "Brother Li, you wanted to see me for a reason, right?"

"You’ve got that right, I do indeed need a favor from you!"

Li Huai smiled, ordered two coffees, and after the waiter left, he lowered his voice, "I have a deal worth three billion, are you interested, brother?"

"Three billion?"

Ling Feng’s eyes widened, thinking that this amount seemed even more generous than what the Sun family was ready to part with!

Seeing his expression, Li Huai chuckled, "Quite a sum, huh? If you’re worried, I can pay half the deposit upfront!"

"..."

Ling Feng was speechless.

The sincerity was certainly enough, and at least Li Huai was genuinely forthcoming, unlike Sun Shaofeng’s threats; half that amount was 1.5 billion—that’s real money!

But there was a good chance Li Huai was on Dongying’s payroll, so Ling Feng felt no gratitude, only showing a shocked expression, "Brother Li, what kind of deal is so valuable that you wouldn’t ask me to do something unscrupulous?"

"Of course not, would I harm you?" Li Huai smiled, then continued, "It’s just about helping to find a rock, that’s all!"

Ling Feng was internally speechless but showed even more surprise on his face, "What kind of rock is that valuable?"

As it turned out, Li Huai was just as clueless as Sun Shaofeng, only knowing that it was a very special rock, but unable to provide any features of it.

Ling Feng then pretended to hesitate for a moment and nodded, "Brother Li is no outsider; if there’s anything I can help with, I definitely will!"

"Great, then I’ll pay you the deposit tomorrow morning!" Li Huai exclaimed delightedly.
