Chapter 309: Chapter 308: Conspiring Against Zhang Xiaoshan

Wang Goudan said with an excited expression.

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes, a full bag of money, dozens of pounds! How could it not be millions?"

"And the new car he purchased is worth seven or eight hundred thousand just by itself, parked right by the ferry at the entrance to the village. If you don’t believe me, you can go take a look."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes immediately lit up.

"How is that possible, that kid? Where would he get so much money?" Wu Biao was skeptical.

After all, Zhang Xiaoshan had once been driven into a corner by Wu Xiaoru’s family because of the bride price, and now he had suddenly become rich in just over a month?

Li Erniu chimed in with agreement.

"Yeah, yeah, I heard he went into business with Luo Meili, that charming widow. But even if Luo Meili gave him all her assets, it wouldn’t amount to that much, right?"

Wang Goudan chuckled slyly.

"Let me tell you a secret, Zhang Xiaoshan personally told me today, he found a centuries-old wild ginseng on the back mountain and sold it for over two million."

"What?"

On hearing this, everyone became restless; shock was written all over their faces.

Wei Bao exclaimed with a twitch in his brow.

"There are indeed many treasures in the back mountain, and given that kid’s skills, finding some treasure there is believable."

The others nodded in agreement.

"We don’t recognize things from the mountains, but Zhang Xiaoshan is a doctor; it makes sense that he can identify valuable herbs. Who would have thought that kid would actually get lucky."

"Over two million, how thick would that be?"

At this point, everyone was practically drooling, and no one felt sleepy anymore.

Who could hate money?

In their entire lives, they would never earn over two million.

Seeing that everyone believed him, Wang Goudan quickly said.

"We need to get this straight. Zhang Xiaoshan is here because of me, so I deserve a cut. No matter how much he loses here today, I want a third."

"Bullshit,"

Wei Bao cursed loudly.

"I’ve always had the final say in this card room. Since when do you make the rules?"

He wanted to teach Wang Goudan a lesson, but he feared disrupting the gambling game and Wang Goudan causing trouble was another worry.

So, he changed his tone and said.

"All right, considering the effort you’ve put in, I’ll give you ten percent."

"Ah?"

"Just, just that much?" Wang Goudan was somewhat dissatisfied.

But Wei Bao continued.

"With all the money Zhang Xiaoshan has, if we win it all, even ten percent would be two or three hundred thousand. What more could you want?"

Wang Goudan didn’t dare offend Wei Bao and, upon further thought, two or three hundred thousand was indeed a sizeable amount.

He nodded.

"Li Erniu, Wu Biao, help me out here. Once it’s done, I’ll give each of you two and a half out of the ten percent, and I’ll keep the rest," Wei Bao began to assign tasks.

Li Erniu and Wu Biao exchanged glances and nodded as well.

"I’ve been wanting to teach Zhang Xiaoshan a lesson for a long time. Today, I’m going to make him lose his pants," Li Erniu was still holding a grudge against the day Zhang Xiaoshan stood up for Xu Jing, and gave him a good beating. He had been looking for a chance to get even.

Wasn’t this the perfect opportunity?

At this moment, they were all ready to slowly devour Zhang Xiaoshan.

But as for who would take advantage of whom, that was still up for debate.

"Heh,"

Zhang Xiaoshan, standing outside the card room, listened to the conversation inside and a hint of disdain appeared on his lips.

Who would take advantage of whom was not yet certain.

"Knock knock knock,"

He knocked on the door.

The people inside, busy plotting, were all startled.

"Is it that kid?"

After getting permission from Wei Bao, Wang Goudan immediately went to open the door for Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Li-, Little Shan, when did you get here?"

Wang Goudan feigned ignorance as he addressed Zhang Xiaoshan.

The others inside were somewhat uneasy.

They were a bit worried that Zhang Xiaoshan had heard their conversation.

Zhang Xiaoshan sported an awkward expression, scratching his head and saying innocently.

"So-, sorry, I’ve just arrived, didn’t mean to keep you waiting."

"I was out seeing patients this afternoon and got back late."

Hearing Zhang Xiaoshan’s response, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed he hadn’t heard their earlier talk.

"Little Shan, come on in. We’ve all been waiting for you for a long time,"

Wu Biao, still wearing an arm sling, greeted Zhang Xiaoshan warmly.

Li Erniu also showed a fawning expression, pulling up a chair for Zhang Xiaoshan as he said,

"Come, come, sit here."

Wei Bao’s adam’s apple moved, saliva almost spilling from his mouth.

It was clear that, in their eyes, Zhang Xiaoshan was a big fat sheep.
