The Strongest Doctor
Chapter 37 - 37 39 Kneel Down and Beg Me

37: Chapter 39: Kneel Down and Beg Me 37: Chapter 39: Kneel Down and Beg Me Li Xiaoqiang finished speaking and followed Gouwa towards the entrance of the village.

Although Gancha Town was called a town, it was actually just a village, with a stele erected at the entrance.

The words “Gancha Town” were inscribed on it, and in front of the stele there was a grain drying ground paved with marble.

At the moment, three sedans, a Hummer, and two Mercedes Benz cars were parked outside the grain drying ground.

A woman dressed in tight leather was standing beside the Hummer, while several middle-aged men and women with a steady aura stood beside the two Mercedes.

The cars, gleaming with a golden shine, arriving in Gancha Town was like immortals had descended.

In the distance from the cars, some boys and girls hid, feeling that cars were so unfamiliar to them, existing only in the stories told by their elders.

One of the kids, dressed in burlap, with a large pipe in his mouth, presented a sight that would surely make city folk laugh their heads off.

He said to the children next to him in an old and wobbly voice, “Hehe, Shuzi, you didn’t believe me last time when I told you, saying that city folks’ toilets are cleaner than our sleeping places.

In the city restrooms, just by reaching out your hands, water flows out lavishly, and I said city women are so pretty.

Now you see, don’t you?”

Having said this, he beamed with self-satisfaction, as if he knew more than the others.

One of the kids, missing two front teeth, lifted his dry eyes and curious, gazed at the three cars, “Sanniu brother, have you ever ridden in a car?”

Sanniu, with the large pipe in his mouth, felt somewhat uneasy but put on a worldly-wise look, “Mmm, of course, I’ve ridden in one, I’ve even been on a train.

That’s way cooler.”

A few children discussed cars, which perhaps they would never get a chance to ride in their lifetime.

Meanwhile, many of the village elders, who had never left the mountains in their entire lives and lived off the land and water, were curious about these cars, the things their younger generations strived for a lifetime to possess.

Were these strange, odd-looking things really that valuable?

At this moment, more and more people gathered at the entrance of the village.

It was at this time, Li Xiaoqiang approached the sedans with an unshaken sense of honor and dishonor.

Seeing Li Xiaoqiang, the villagers who had been stooping stood up straight.

He was the university graduate from their village, a source of their pride.

When Li Xiaoqiang saw that it was Ouyang Mingyue, he froze completely, the person he could never reach in a lifetime, why had they suddenly come to Gancha Town?

Li Xiaoqiang didn’t understand.

Facing Ouyang Mingyue, Li Xiaoqiang’s mind kept telling himself to stay calm, not to panic, but for some reason, there seemed to be a powerful aura emanating from her, crushing him under its weight.

The closer Li Xiaoqiang got to her, the weaker his legs became.

Having approached Ouyang Mingyue, Li Xiaoqiang felt as if it took a long time.

He wanted to speak right away, but the words at the tip of his tongue sank back into his stomach.

Was this what they called presence?

Ouyang Mingyue’s cold gaze was fixed on Li Xiaoqiang, as if evaluating an object.

She arched an eyebrow and said indifferently, “Still alive and well?

Heh, quite a surprise to me.”

Li Xiaoqiang felt annoyed upon hearing this and took a deep breath, “Why have you come to Gancha Town?”

Ouyang Mingyue did not pay any attention to Li Xiaoqiang but instead surveyed the terrain of Maoshan Town, mumbling to herself, “How much are you offering to buy this village?”

Ouyang Mingyue’s words fell, and several middle-aged men and women walked towards her with steady steps.

One of the middle-aged men touched the ring on his middle finger, and anyone knowledgeable could tell it was a diamond ring.

He pursed his lips and said, “As a tourism development, it’s not bad, especially that mountaintop sitting north facing south, it has quite an imperial aura.

Even with my half-baked Feng Shui realm, I’d say this is a land of Feng Shui treasure.

If we could acquire this land and build wild mountain villas, it’s likely to be favored by many businessmen.”

Another woman wearing a medieval noble’s hat nodded slightly, “Regardless of the landscape or geographical conditions, Maoshan Town is a place we’ve overlooked.

A friend from the Land Resources Bureau revealed that there’s a kind of precious mineral underneath the land, a material needed by contemporary aerospace.”

“Oh?” Another middle-aged man was taken aback upon hearing this, “Heh, what do you mean by sharing this?

It’s not in your character, is it?”

The woman, in her early forties and already possessing endless wealth, smoothed her collar with a smile, “Since someone in the Land Resources Bureau has discovered this material, the state will definitely get involved.

I think with our individual strength, we can’t preserve this land.

Of course, except for sister Mingyue, if we join hands, the profit we get could at least increase tenfold.”

Having said this, everyone exchanged knowing smiles.

Li Xiaoqiang didn’t understand why these people had suddenly come to Gancha Town, this remote mountain village, but from their conversation, he gleaned that Gancha Town, the place where he grew up, was about to become a commodity in the mouths of these businessmen.

Li Xiaoqiang frowned and asked, “Why must you specifically purchase Gancha Town?”

The middle-aged men and women looked at Li Xiaoqiang curiously.

Using his Mysterious Spirit Eye, Li Xiaoqiang saw that each of them had thriving wealth and official fortune—their aura was even stronger than the people he saw when he visited Liang Bowen’s wife.

Since Li Xiaoqiang was staring at Ouyang Mingyue as he spoke, the people around her were looking at her too, expecting an answer from her mouth.

Ouyang Mingyue stared at Li Xiaoqiang and said, “If you beg me, perhaps I will agree not to buy this land.”

Li Xiaoqiang, upon hearing this, was infuriated and said coldly, “How do you want me to beg you?”

Ouyang Mingyue sized up Li Xiaoqiang and said indifferently, “Kneel down and beg me in front of your fellow villagers.”

Li Xiaoqiang’s body trembled at her words; it’s said, “A man’s knees are golden;” how could he, Li Xiaoqiang, kneel to a woman?

But if he didn’t kneel, this land that nurtured his homeland would become a commodity in the hands of these businessmen.

As for what it would become later, Li Xiaoqiang didn’t know.

But one thing he was certain of.

The people of Gancha Town would be heartbroken.

This is where their ancestors’ spirits lay, this is their home.

If they couldn’t even protect their home, they would feel guilty for a lifetime.

The people here are honest and kind, the mountains clear and the waters pure.

Li Xiaoqiang couldn’t bear to watch his home in his heart turn into a commodity in these businessmen’s eyes.

It was at this moment that Li Xiaoqiang realized how insignificant he was and how cruel society could be, where any laws that were established, are decided by those in power.

Li Xiaoqiang’s desire for money and power reached the most intense point it had ever been since he grew up.

At that moment, Li Xiaoqiang saw his grandfather, leaning on his cane, walking this way.

Li Xiaoqiang quickly walked towards his grandfather.

Facing someone like Ouyang Mingyue, whose scheming runs faster than a computer, he, Li Xiaoqiang, was not up to the challenge.

Perhaps the old man could solve this, otherwise, why would he be called the Immortal of Gancha Town?
