Chapter 288: Chapter 287 The Book Has Arrived

"Brother-in-law, the books have been delivered, but there are so many that it’s difficult to transport them into the mountain." Caden Greenhill’s call came just as Peter Brown finished signing agreements with the last family.

The villagers were cautious and took borrowing money seriously. Some borrowed as much as 30,000 dollars and others as little as five thousand yuan. Everyone, according to their abilities, made contracts for some fields close to the village.

As for the villagers’ ideas, Peter Brown didn’t interfere too much; after all, everyone had to consider their own capacity.

After receiving Caden’s call, Peter Brown was quite happy and said, "Alright, just wait in the township, and I’ll be there soon."

After explaining some things to Lana Jackson, Peter Brown dashed towards the township.

Now, Peter Brown had much faster speeds. With his Qi Refining Fourth Level, running on mountain roads was not a problem, often stepping on grass as he went.

It took less than twenty minutes for Peter Brown to appear in the township.

After making the call, Peter Brown saw Caden and Charles Greenhill at a small restaurant. This time, the brothers personally delivered the books.

"Brother-in-law, you’re already here? We just ordered food!"

Not expecting Peter Brown to arrive so quickly, the two brothers were both surprised and in awe of him. They knew that he must have run down from the mountain.

With a slight smile, Peter Brown said, "Alright, I’ll have a drink with you and have dinner together."

"Brother-in-law, there are so many books this time. The university teacher sent a lot, and we bought almost all the books in the bookstore. They were delivered by a truck."

He pointed to a truck parked outside.

When Peter Brown saw it, he was also a little dazed and asked, "Did you empty the bookstore?"

Charles Greenhill laughed, "Brother-in-law, didn’t you say to buy all the books? My sister said to simply buy all the technical books, not only mechanical ones, but also computer-related ones."

Peter Brown laughed and said, "Alright, if you bought them, you bought them. It won’t cost much."

Now, several millions of money didn’t seem like much to Peter Brown, so he wasn’t too concerned about money matters.

Peter Brown also picked up his cell phone and called Ella Johnson. As soon as the call went through, he said gratefully, "Ella, thank you so much for getting so many books!"

Ella Johnson laughed, "I had to find quite a few people to get them, but I don’t know why you suddenly want to study mechanics instead of medicine. What are you really up to?"

"Well, it’s just a hobby, learning more knowledge."

Ella Johnson said, "Stop hiding in the mountains. Your influence has declined, and you don’t have that much influence anymore."

Hearing her discouraging words, Peter Brown laughed, "Having no influence is a good thing. I’ll come back after a while, once I’ve completely lost my influence."

The two chatted for a while before hanging up.

Now the Greenhill brothers looked at Peter Brown with mixed emotions. Both of them had seen Ella Johnson and were stunned by her beauty. Caden even thought about mentioning this to his sister when he returned.

When Peter Brown looked at the two brothers, he unexpectedly found that neither of them had Spiritual Roots.

Seeing this, Peter Brown sighed inwardly. Caden was a man of martial talent, but his lack of Spiritual Roots greatly limited his potential.

However, a thought crossed Peter Brown’s mind. If he gained a reputation in the next step and successfully refined the Dao Union Pill, he could try to create some Spiritual Roots for Caden using elixirs. But that would depend on the situation.

"Brother-in-law, where should we deliver the books now?"

Peter Brown said, "You two can go back after dinner, and I’ll take care of the books myself. There’s still a lot of work to do in the provincial city with your sister."

After the three of them had dinner, Charles Greenhill drove the truck to a desolate place. Peter Brown collected all the books into his Space Ring with one sweep.

Watching Peter Brown’s actions, the two brothers’ eyes lit up.

"Brother-in-law, is it a Space Ring?" Caden Greenhill asked in surprise.

Peter Brown smiled and said, "I forgot about this. I have a storage bag here. Your sister has already reached Qi-guiding-into-the-body stage, so she should be able to use this thing. Help me give this storage bag to your sister."

Caden Greenhill looked at Peter Brown and pitifully said, "What about for us?"

Peter Brown said, "This bag is very precious, and it’s not like you can have it if you want. You must reach the Qi-guiding-into-the-body stage to use it. When you guys reach that stage, I’ll help you find another one. Remember to tell your sister clearly not to let anyone know she has this. In the Cultivation World, this thing can easily make people covet it, and if you don’t have enough cultivation, using this item is inviting trouble."

Caden Greenhill nodded continuously, "Don’t worry, brother-in-law, we’ll definitely be careful."

In fact, Peter Brown now really had several storage bags, all from ransacking fallen foreign Cultivators, but they had not been given to others because he was worried that the bags would arouse people’s greed.

After watching Charles Greenhill and the others drive away, Peter Brown didn’t rush to return, but walked along the street.

Actually, the township was not that large, just a small street. Peter even thought that when Green Water Village developed, it would definitely be busier than it is now.

"Oh! If it isn’t CEO Wang!"

While walking, Peter Brown heard someone greet him.

Peter Brown looked over and was puzzled, "Who are you?"

It was a middle-aged man who looked like a villager, carrying a backpack with some leftover grass inside.

Looking at the grass in the backpack, Peter Brown’s eyes narrowed. He discovered a Lingcao in the backpack. This Lingcao was called Sunlowering Grass, which was used for refining Barrier Pills. He had been looking for this kind of Lingcao but hadn’t seen it, and now he found it here.

"CEO Wang, I attended the dinner you hosted in Green Water Village the day before yesterday. My name is Spencer Taylor from Blackstone Village. I have a relative in Green Water Village."

So that’s what it was!

Peter Brown smiled, "Anything special brought you to the township?"

"I make a living hunting. I just killed two mountain chickens and brought them to the township to sell. I was about to head back."

"What is the grass in your backpack for?"

"Oh, that? I randomly picked some from the mountain to pad the backpack."

Peter Brown was speechless for a moment. The Sunlowering Grass was a valuable Lingcao, even in the Cultivation World, and he didn’t expect him to use it as padding for his chicken nest.

"I need this medicinal herb, give it to me."

Peter Brown took the Sunlowering Grass out.

"Oh, it’s medicine? I didn’t even know. It’s not worth much, but you can take it if you want." Spencer Taylor said indifferently.

Peter Brown didn’t want to take advantage of the other party, so he said, "This medicinal herb is useful to me. How about this, I’ll still pay you, 1,000 dollars."

"What?"

Scott Taylor became somewhat agitated and shook his head, "It’s not worth that much, it really isn’t."

"It depends on who wants it. It’s just a weed to others, but I happen to need it."

Peter Brown still took out 1,000 dollars and handed it to Scott Taylor.

With the 1,000 dollars in his hand, Spencer Taylor stared at the money in a daze. After a while, he asked, "We have this kind of grass on our village’s mountain. If you want, I can get you some more."

"Let’s go, I’ll go with you and take a look." Peter Brown was also somewhat eager. The Sunlowering Grass was actually available on their village’s mountain, which was really good news for Peter Brown.

"All right. Boss Wang, you are a talented person. I’ve heard that wherever you go develops quickly. Take a look at our Blackstone Village and see if it can be developed," he said.
