Chapter 71: Thunderous Means

  Chapter 71: Thunderous Means

  Cheng Zihan raised an eyebrow, gave the man a cold glance, and snorted, "Oh? You say I should give in, so I'll give in. Wouldn't that be humiliating for me? What can you do to me if I don't give in? I didn't know there was such a law in this country that not doing business with someone is against the law."

  "You! Do you know who I am?" The man was also furious, staring at Cheng Zihans' proud inquiry.

  Cheng Zihan let out a cold snort again, "Sorry, I really don't know who you are?"

  "I am the third young master of the Han family in the capital! Han Du!" The man said with a smug expression.

  "What's that? The Three Young Masters of the Han Family? Never heard of it." Cheng Zihan was taken aback when she first heard the name, but after hearing the rest of the sentence, she said bluntly.

  This Han Duanyi, he had mentioned her before, she's a piece of trash, an ignorant and arrogant second-generation rich kid. She usually relies on being from the Han family to bully others, looking down on people. If it weren't for the Han family's powerful influence protecting her, I reckon she would have been beaten to death long ago.

  It turns out that Han Du has a good father, his father is an official with a not low position in the central government, so he also found him a pretty good job, this time he was responsible for the procurement of flowers for National Day.

  He was originally able to make a big profit, but when the delivery date arrived, Qin Hongtao told him that there was no goods!

  No stock means what? It means he has to spit out those kickbacks he swallowed!

  How could he be willing? So today I brought Qin Hongtao to find a place.

  Cheng Zihan didn't care why he came, anyway she wasn't an easy person to mess with. Didn't Qin Hongwei have to give her some face? Now even Yan Han didn't dare to provoke her casually. But it was just a trivial matter of Han Duan, in the Han family's position, it could be ignored. How could she possibly put him in her eyes? She also knew the eldest young master of the Han family! However, have you seen her show off everywhere? She was still the youngest commander's goddaughter of the Han family! Her status was much higher than that of Han Duan!

  Even if Han Duan's father came, he would still have to show respect and ask how she was doing when seeing Cheng Zihan. What kind of person is Han Duan? How dare he speak loudly in front of Cheng Zihan?

  "How dare you not give me face?" Han Du was furious! Although his status in the Han family was low, but even in the capital, as long as he threw out the Han family's name, who wouldn't give him some face? Even if they didn't give him face, they would still give his father face! Now this Cheng Zihuan, not giving him face was just a nouveau riche from Anguo, he had never put him in his eyes at all. As a result, the other party was just a casual encounter, but completely didn't give him face, and even directly coldly ridiculed him!

  "Why should I give you face? If there's nothing else, all of you can get out, I still have a lot of things to do and I'm very busy." Cheng Zihan didn't even bother to look at Han Du, he was just a spoiled rich kid, what could he possibly be capable of? At most, he could only use his status to suppress her.

  After finishing speaking, Cheng Zihan stood up and left with a carefree attitude.

  "Stop right there!" Han Du's face turned beet red as he bellowed at the back of Cheng Zihans' figure.

  Qin Kesou took a step forward, blocking Han Du's path. "Han Gongzi, you'd better leave now. Your identity is of no use here. Either you didn't understand her identity clearly before coming, or... Her godfather's name is Han Xuanshao."

  Qin Kexiu finished speaking and looked at Han Du with a hint of a smile, and indeed saw that as soon as Han Du heard the name Han Xuanshao, his face changed immediately, becoming a dull gray. He even secretly congratulated himself that he had just been lucky enough to only show off with his mouth, without doing anything out of line, otherwise if he went back and let Han Xuanshao know, he would definitely be in for it!

  As soon as he thought of Han Xuanzhao's ruthless methods, Han Duan was so scared that his heart trembled and he immediately took Qin Hongtao to leave quietly.

  As soon as they left the plantation, Han Du pointed at Qin Hongtao's forehead and started scolding him.

  "Qin Hongtao, Qin Hongtao! I'm asking you, are you brainless or do you have a problem with your brain? You even dare to offend that dead pervert's goddaughter! Are you tired of living or what? This matter won't be settled just like this! You wait for me!" After scolding Qin Hongtao, Han Tie walked away, still fuming.

  Qin Hongtao was filled with regret, originally thinking that by finding Han Du he could get some benefits, this idiot would help himself out, but unexpectedly, Han Du was afraid of Han Xuanshao to such an extent.

  Qin Hongtao thought for a moment and hurriedly chased after him.

  "Master Han, Master Han, listen to me first." Qin Hongtao was anxious in his heart. If he couldn't hand over the goods, he would be the one to suffer when the time came, but it wouldn't just be him who suffered. He estimated that it would also implicate the Qin family. They were just a small branch of the Qin family, and the main family wouldn't care about their lives or deaths. But Qin Hongtao was not willing to give up! How could he bear to lose to a little girl like this?

  And if this business really succeeds, they may all have the opportunity to return home again, which is a great honor for every Qin family child who has been drifting outside.

  "What else nonsense do you have to say, hurry up and say it, after finishing, get out of my sight!" Han Du stopped and glanced at Qin Hongtao with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

  Qin Hongtao took a deep breath, knowing this was his only chance.

  "Lord Han, think about it. That Cheng Zihan claims to be the goddaughter of Han Xuanzhao, but where is Han Xuanzhao now? Far away in the capital city, even if you really did something to her, he wouldn't be able to come over immediately. When the time comes, you just need to tell him that you didn't know Cheng Zihan's identity, and he definitely won't pursue any responsibility from you. You are still a member of the Han family after all, and even if he doesn't give face to you, he will give some face to your father. Your father is currently a person in charge of national finance in the Ministry of Finance, this position is not low! Now Cheng Zihan relies on her own identity and doesn't give you any face at all, that's looking down on your father and you..." Qin Hongtao spoke with venomous eyes, gritting his teeth as he spoke a mouthful of slander against Cheng Zihan, while constantly inciting Han Zhong.

  As expected, Han Duan was deceived.

  He was originally arrogant and lawless, relying on his identity to dominate the capital. He was very afraid of Han Xuanshao, but Cheng Zihuan was just a rustic wild girl from the countryside. Even if Han Xuanshao liked her, even if he really did something to her, Han Xuanshao wouldn't be able to cause him any real trouble, after all, he was still a member of the Han family.

  Thinking of him, he curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled cruelly.

  "Alright, you're right. I'll send someone to bring back this Cheng Zihan's family members immediately. I don't believe it, she still has the nerve to dare challenge me, Young Master!" Han Dian gritted his teeth and instructed Qin Hongtao.

  Qin Hongtao smiled respectfully and hastily retreated, arranging for someone to take care of things.

  Cheng Zihan directly entered the greenhouse and began to tend to her seedlings.

  A sudden surge of unease rose in her heart, causing her to jump up abruptly, her gaze coldly fixed on the outside.

  At this time, Qin Kexiu pushed the door and came in, just to meet Cheng Zihan's murderous gaze, frightened, and hurriedly walked over, asking inexplicably: "Cheng Zihan, what are you doing? I don't think I've offended you?"

  Qin Ke was now in a state of confusion, wondering if he would get hurt no matter which path he took.

  "Immediately send someone back to the village to see if Zixi is there, I feel that this Han Duan will take action against my family. You go with me now to Zhenglong's side and take a look." Cheng Zihan only came to his senses after hearing Qin Kexiu's voice, and hastily gave an order to Qin Kexiu before hurrying out the door.

  Qin's heart skipped a beat, his eyes darting back and forth several times before he hastily followed in the footsteps of Cheng Zihan.

  "Li, you immediately bring a few people back to the village and see if Zi Xi is there. If she's at home, bring her over right away." After leaving the greenhouse, Qin Ke Xiu hastily instructed Liang Han before getting into the car and driving off with Cheng Zi Han to go to Cheng Hai's place.

  Liang Han knew that something must have happened and didn't dare delay. He hastily called five or six people and also drove a car to rush to the village.

  Today is Friday. Cheng Zixi has already gone to kindergarten this morning, but because the kindergarten had something on today, they let out early, so she came home after 9 o'clock.

  A person is squatting in the small garden at home playing with mud.

  "Is anyone home?" A voice suddenly sounded at the door, and Cheng Zixi dropped the shovel in his hand and ran over to open the door.

  At the door stood Li Bojian's wife, Zhong Xiaomei. She saw Cheng Zixi and reached out to rub her head, "Is Zixi alone at home? Where are the others?"

  "They're not home, who is Auntie looking for?" Cheng Zixi subconsciously dodged Zhong Xiaomei's touch and said crisply.

  "No, your uncle said he thought he saw you come back, so he asked me to take a look and see if you're home. If you are, then call you over for dinner and to keep your brother company." Zhong Xiaomei didn't pay much attention to Cheng Zixi's actions, Cheng Zixi wasn't very close to strangers anyway, sometimes she wouldn't even speak when she saw people. Today, calling her "Auntie" made Zhong Xiaomei feel like she had stepped on dog poop.

  "Good." Cheng Zixi didn't refuse, nodded and closed the door, following Zhong Xiaomei out.

  Less than ten minutes after they left, Liang Han and others arrived.

  Liang Han knocked on the door, but no one answered. He then took someone to the kindergarten in the village, but the kindergarten gate had been closed early. The old man at the entrance told Liang Han that the kindergarten was closed today and all the students had left.

  Liang Han knew something was wrong and hastily led his men back.

  They had just left when Qin Hongtao's men arrived.

  They also ate a white fruit and didn't find Chengzi Creek, then hurriedly rushed to the side of Chenghai.

  "What's going on?" Cheng Zihan and Qin Kexiu's car broke down halfway, and Cheng Zihan was anxious in her heart, worried that something would happen to Cheng Hai.

  But thinking about it, there are also several workers on that side, and self-protection is enough. Even if they passed by, what help would they be to you? The person has calmed down anyway.

  Cheng Zihan and Qin Hongtao arrived at Zhenglong together.

  When they arrived, Cheng Hai and other workers were resting inside the simple tile house. A group of people rushed in, startling them, and Cheng Ziheng followed behind them.

  Qin Hongtao was among them, he didn't expect Cheng Zihan to appear suddenly, but at this critical moment, he couldn't care about that anymore. He hastily shouted: "Don't mind them, catch these two!"

  Qin Hongtao brought over a dozen people, and as soon as they heard his words, they rushed forward to grab Cheng Hai.

  Others rushed forward to block, and Cheng Hai and Li Lan hastily hid behind.

  "Qin Hongtao! You dare!" The people looking at Qin Hongtao had already taken action, several people on Cheng Hai's side were injured and fell to the ground. Cheng Zihan was anxious and shouted loudly at Qin Hongtao.

  Qin Hongtao's eyes turned crimson, and he fell into a state of madness. In any case, if he couldn't hand over the batch of seedlings, he would be dead; if he offended Cheng Zihan and let Han Xuanshao know about it, he would also be dead. Either way, he was doomed to die, so he might as well fight with all his might.

  He steeled himself and suddenly pulled out a dagger from his body, charging towards Cheng Ziheng.

  "Zi Han, be careful!" Cheng Hai was shocked and didn't care about the person blocking his way, he directly rushed towards Qin Hongtao, wanting to pull him back.

  "Cheng Zihan!" Qin Kexiu was also greatly shocked when he saw him. Without thinking, he wanted to stretch out his hand to pull open Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan's face was expressionless, coldly staring at Qin Hongtao. Seeing him prepare to approach, she suddenly rolled down to the ground, dodging his attack. Then quickly got up and took advantage of Qin Hongtao's inertia, which had not yet reacted, picked up a nearby brick and hit it towards Qin Hongtao.

  Qin Hongtao reacted quickly, before Cheng Zihan's turning hammer hit him, he dodged to the side and counterattacked with his dagger towards Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan didn't expect his reaction to be so agile, he dodged the knife with a slight crouch and swept his foot directly at Qin Hongtao, sending him tumbling to the ground. At this moment, Cheng Hai had already rushed over and upon seeing Qin Hongtao fall, without saying another word, he straddled Qin's body and started punching his face.

  Cheng Zihan worried that Cheng Hai would get hurt, so he took a step forward and snatched the dagger from Qin Hongtao's hand, stabbing it fiercely beside Qin Hongtao's face.

  Qin Hongtao felt his heart almost stopping, as Cheng Zihan's gaze, full of murderous intent, scared him so much that he slowed down his breathing, fearing that if Cheng Zihan's hand shook, the dagger in her hand would be inserted into the wrong position, and he would die immediately and go back to see his ancestors.

  "Qin Hongtao!" At this moment, Cheng Zihan's anger was indescribable. If she had discovered it too late or arrived too late, both Cheng Hai and Li Lan would have fallen into his clutches! Qin Hongtao actually dared to touch her family members, which undoubtedly touched her reverse scales! This was simply asking for death!

  Qin Hongtao felt his heart tremble violently, and for some reason, he looked at Cheng Zihan with a hallucination of seeing the god of death from hell. At this moment, Cheng Zihan's eyes were burning with fierce anger, almost scorching him to ashes.

  "Miss Cheng, Miss Cheng, spare my life, spare my life!" Qin Hongtao was terrified and begged for mercy.

  Cheng Zihan pulled out the dagger and lightly slid it across Qin Hongtao's cheek, "Spare your life? You'd better give me a reason to let you off."

  Cheng Zihan gritted her teeth and said, the dagger in her hand slightly exerted force, directly slashing Qin Hongtao's cheek, fresh blood slid down his cheek, and the air quickly filled with a bloody smell.

  Qin Hongtao's gall was trembling, and he stammered: "It is, it is Han Duan, all of this is Han Duan's doing, I, I was just forced to do so."

  Now, Qin Hongtao had no choice but to bring Han Du in. He figured that Cheng Ziheng wouldn't really take action against Han Du, and the most rational thing to do was to hand him over. Later on, even if Cheng Ziheng went to look for trouble with Han Du, Han's family would be backing him up. If Cheng Ziheng offended the Han family because of Han Du, it would only bring benefits without any drawbacks.

  "Ha!?" Cheng Zihan coldly smiled, the dagger in her hand continued to slowly move across Qin Hongtao's face. "Without you, would he have looked for me? Qin Hongtao, do you really think I'm a fool? I think you're tired of living! This life, I'll let it end here!"

  Cheng Zihan said, suddenly raised the dagger and stabbed Qin Hongtao fiercely.

  "Ah——" Qin Hongtao let out a miserable cry, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

  Cheng Zihan snorted, put away the dagger, stood up and kicked Qin Hongtao, "This guy is not scary at all, useless scum!"

  Scolding for a moment, Cheng Zihan's face slowly eased up, "The people he brought with him, beat them all up for me, then strip them all naked and hang them at the entrance of the plantation for everyone to see! As for Qin Hongtao, Qin Kexiu, you take him away for me!"

  Cheng Hai listened to Cheng Zihan's words, his mouth twitched violently and he said weakly: "Zihan, if you take off all your clothes and hang them at the entrance of the plantation, won't that be a bit... not quite right?"

  Cheng Zihan's nostrils flared one by one, puffing out air to show how angry she was. "What's wrong with them? Let them dare come and find trouble with you! I didn't strip them naked and hang them on the city gate of Wangcheng, that's already being lenient!"

  Cheng Hai's mouth twitched again, but he didn't continue speaking.

  The dozen or so people brought by Qin Hongtao had already been subdued by Qin Kexiu, and they were all crouching on the ground, looking pale with fear when they heard Cheng Zihan's words, thinking that they were done for.

  Qin Ke came over and picked up Qin Hongtao who had fainted, then left with Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan instructed Cheng Hai repeatedly before leaving, to be extremely careful with everything.

  Cheng Hai assured him repeatedly before Cheng Zihan left.

  "What are you going to do with him?" Qin Kexiu asked calmly, glancing at Cheng Zihan after throwing Qin Hongtao onto the car.

  Cheng Zihan turned back and glanced at Qin Hongtao, "Hmph, I'd love to slap him onto the wall of Wangcheng Gate so hard that he can't scrape himself off! But thinking about it, that's too easy for him. Of course, I have ways to deal with him! Drive!"

  Qin Ke had some doubts in his mind and didn't quite understand what method Cheng Zihan wanted to use to capture Qin Hongtao, but when he learned of Cheng's so-called method, the corners of his mouth twitched violently for a long time and couldn't calm down.

  He finally understood why the ancients always said that it's better to offend a petty person than to offend a woman. Because offending a woman is truly a terrible thing!

  When the two returned to the plantation, Liang Han had already come back. As soon as he came back and told Cheng Zihuan that he couldn't find Cheng Zixi, he scared Cheng Zihuan half to death. Fortunately, Li Bojian happened to call over and told Cheng Zihuan that Cheng Zixi had gone to his house to play, telling her not to worry, otherwise, it's estimated that Cheng Zihuan would directly take people to the Wangcheng Hotel to tear Han Dian into pieces.

  After confirming Cheng Zixi's safety, Cheng Zihan let Qin Kexiu drag Qin Hongtao into the greenhouse to teach him a lesson.

  "Ugh, how ugly! Get rid of it immediately and hang it on the door of Han's hotel!" With a glance at Qin Hongtao, who had a large turtle painted on his chest, Cheng Zihan shook her head in disgust.

  Qin Kexiu's mouth twitched, and then he called someone over to drag Qin Hongtao out.

  "Cheng Zihan, you're really ruthless!" Only after everyone had left did Qin Kesou give Cheng Zihan a thumbs up.

  Cheng Zihan actually stuffed a catfish directly into Qin Hongtao's chrysanthemum, and said that this is the latest trendy dish. The turtle on Qin Hongtao's chest was tattooed by Cheng Zihan with his dagger while Qin Hongtao was unconscious, then he splashed some red and blue medicine water to fix the color.

  This Qin Hongtao, I'm afraid it's going to be a painful period for a long time. Eels like warm and humid environments, and the human body seems to be the best place, wanting to take it out, I estimate that a knife needs to be opened and a small operation needs to be done.

  "What's wrong with me? I didn't even kill him, how kind am I?" Cheng Zihan said nonchalantly, but her eyes had a fierce glint.

  She really thinks she's too kind, otherwise why would so many people come to provoke her one after another? Provoke her is nothing, anyway she's idle and bored, playing with them is not bad, but they actually went to find trouble for the relatives she cares about most! It's simply unforgivable!

  Qin Kesou nodded repeatedly, "En, yes, you are really too kind!"

  Qin Ke Xu intentionally emphasized the two words "good" and " virtuous", but the irony in his eyes was very obvious.

  But he doesn't think there's anything wrong with Cheng Zihan's approach. To make others afraid and not dare to bother you again, you have to be tough. As long as you are strong enough, others will not dare to continue hurting you and the people around you.

  "That Han Lian, let's go and entertain him well later. You, go invite him out for a meal, I want to treat him well." Cheng Zihan raised her chin slightly with some small pride, saying to Qin Kexiu.

  Qin could raise an eyebrow and look at Cheng Zihuan, "What do you want to do? He is after all a member of the Han family."

  "If he weren't a member of the Han family, do you think I would let him off so easily?" Cheng Zihan shot back at Qin Kexiu with a glance.

  "No." Qin Kesou shrugged and went to meet Han Du.

  When Han Du saw Qin Hongtao hanging miserably at the hotel entrance, his eyebrows jumped fiercely, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

  Qin Kesou walked out from the side and glanced at Han Du with a faint smile, "Young Master Han, our young lady invites you to have a meal."

  Han Du heard Qin Ke's words and suddenly shivered violently. He looked at Qin Ke, gritted his teeth and asked: "What are we going to eat?"

  "You just need to agree and follow me, that's all. You don't need to know anything else." Qin Kesu said coldly, casting a sideways glance at Han Tian.

  Han just wanted to resist, but several big men walked out from the side and he had no choice but to obey, following Qin Kexiu onto the car.

  The place where we ate was a big stall next to the plantation, and the surrounding area had already been cleared by Cheng Zihang, with not a single person in sight.

  The dishes were already laid out on the table, and looking at the red and green colors was quite beautiful.

  But Han Du looked at him with a frightened heart, sat down and his legs were trembling, he always felt that Cheng Zihang's body emitted a very familiar and powerful killing aura, which made him feel a little difficult to breathe.

  This killing aura, he had only felt it on a pervert in the Han family. If not for knowing that the pervert didn't have a daughter, he would have suspected that Cheng Zihuan might be his illegitimate child.

  As Han Du sat down, Cheng Zihan poured tea with a cold smile. A cup of tea was placed in front of Han Du, still steaming hot.

  The green tea water, with a few tea leaves still floating on the surface, gives off a faint scent of tea aroma, it's really good tea.

  "Prince Han." Cheng Zihan raised an eyebrow and gave Han Tian a faint glance before calling out.

  Han Du shivered inexplicably at the sound of Cheng Zihan's voice, shrunk his neck and glanced at Cheng Zihan, letting out a dry laugh, "Heh heh, Miss Cheng."

  "How dare you, you're the third young master of the Han family in Beijing, and you call me Miss Cheng? My ears are trembling with fear just hearing it." Cheng Zihan let out a cold snort, rolled her eyes, and said words that sounded fearful, but her eyes were full of disdain.

  Han Du looked at Cheng Zihan's angry face, but now he had a handle in her hand, he regretted listening to Qin Hongtao's temptation and letting people catch Cheng Zihan's family.

  If this were to be known by Han Xuanzhao, wouldn't he lose face? Han Xuanzhao would never give his father any face, even if his father fell into his hands, he would directly beat him without hesitation.

  Han Du was so regretful that his intestines turned green, and he wished he had never come to Wangcheng.

  "It was my fault, I shouldn't have offended you, I'm guilty. You're a magnanimous person, please don't take it to heart and don't tell Seventh Uncle about this, he'll tear me apart." Han Duan had already been panicked, seeing Qin Hongtao appear at the door made his legs go weak, now seeing Cheng Ziheng, he felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.

  There was a strange feeling, although it was the first time he saw Cheng Zihan, but as soon as he saw her for the first time, he had a feeling of having seen her long ago. That kind of fear from the depths of his soul was too profound, making him even dare not to look at Cheng Zihan straight in the eye.

  At first, I was really blindfolded by a ghost and listened to Qin Hongtao's words, going to provoke this lady, Cheng Zihan.

  "Oh? Scared? Alright, if you want me to spare your life, it's simple. Just finish all the dishes on this table and I'll forgive you." Cheng Zihan stood up with a harmless smile on his face, but no matter how Han Teng looked at him, he still felt a chill in his heart.

  He took a glance at the dishes on the table, seeing that the vegetables were vegetables and the meat was meat, unable to spot any issues, but since Cheng Zihang had told him to eat, there must be some problem with it.

  He hesitated for a moment, and Cheng Zihan spoke again in a light tone, "Not eating? If you don't eat, I'll immediately call my godfather in the capital."

  Cheng Zihan said, still pretending to be serious, took out a big brother handheld phone and dialed a number.

  "Eat, I'll eat!" Han Dong's whole body trembled, and he hastily picked up his chopsticks, adding a mouthful of food to his mouth.

  There seems to be a strange taste in this dish, it's so unbearable that he wants to throw up.

  But Han Du forced himself to finish the meal, almost bursting his stomach. He ate with tears streaming down his face and after finishing, he wiped his mouth before asking Cheng Ziheng in a choked voice, "I... I've finished eating, what exactly are these things?"

  "I don't know, anyway it was fished out from the stinky ditch. If you finish eating it, I'll forgive you." Cheng Zihan patted her hands, with a magnanimous expression, and then turned around and left.

  "Ugh." Behind him was Han Zhong's vomiting sound.

  Cheng Zihan covered her mouth and laughed, walking out of the large restaurant in big strides.

  "Alright?" Seeing Cheng Zihan come out, Qin Kexiu looked back at her suspiciously, but didn't see Han Tian.

  "Well, let's go and let others clean up the mess. Get rid of Han Du." Cheng Zihan smiled faintly at Qin Kexiu before instructing.

  She looked like she was in a good mood, Qin Kesou was confused, as soon as he went in, he saw Han Dian lying on the ground, clutching his throat and vomiting nonstop.

  What's the big deal? It's just leftover food from last night. Can't you at least heat it up for him?

  Qin Kesou's face was filled with confusion, and he only instructed someone to come over and carry Han Du out.

  Cheng Zihan fooled Han Dian and went straight to the construction site. The real estate market in Nanshi is very hot, all the houses in Yujingtai have been sold out, now it's just waiting for the completion of the building and then hand over the house.

  At this time, the workers had already dug the foundation, and this engineering team was sent by Han Xuanshao to Cheng Zihan. They worked diligently and quickly, and Cheng Zihan was also very satisfied.

  However, the salary is also ridiculously high, thirty a day, and it's still two shifts.

  The Royal Scenic Mansion's complex was originally very large, with a considerable distance between each building, and the greening area inside the community is sufficient, with artificial hills and streams designed to perfection.

  It has just started to dig the foundation, only to see a few exposed steel bars and the freshly poured concrete foundation, workers are working hard with sweat.

  This batch of engineering team has come with more than 300 people, and for now, they are only working on the residential area project. The villa side has not started yet. According to their estimate, it will take at least half a year to complete the capping. Adding decoration and other things, it is estimated that it will take almost a year to fully complete the Yujingtai project.

  This is a big project, Cheng Zihang roughly estimated that if it goes at this rate, by the time the house is fully built, the money spent will be enough for her to drink a pot of.

  The money from selling the house has only collected a deposit, which is 20% of the total value of the house. The remaining 80% can only be obtained after the handover of the property. If calculated based on the current situation, the recovered deposit would just be enough to cover the workers' wages for this year, including all employees in the plantation and sales department as well as other expenses.

  This was originally intended to generate revenue, but it seems that no income has been generated so far.

  Cheng Zihan got a headache again.

  I came out of the construction site and went to the plantation to take a stroll around. Now, there is no business in the plantation either. Previously, it was booming with orders, but now all the projects that needed to be done have been completed, so naturally, there are no more orders coming in, even if there are any, they are just small ones.

  However, if Qin Hongtao's order can be taken over by himself, it would be possible for him to create some income.

  At the current price given to Qin Hongtao, even the most ordinary peony seedlings, without any rare varieties, would cost 500,000 yuan per plant. For 1,000 plants, that's 50 million yuan. Adding the mutated top-grade "Hong" variety, with 20 plants at 2 million yuan each, that's another 40 million yuan. With this income of tens of millions, only a small cost needs to be paid, and Cheng Zihuan is indeed somewhat moved.

  However, she did not want to cooperate with Qin Hongtao. She wanted to directly cooperate with the people from the Central Committee, but this would require going to negotiate with Han Ding.

  Qin Kexiu saw Cheng Zihan walking over with a thoughtful expression from afar, and just as she was about to reach him, her face suddenly broke out into a very radiant smile, which startled Qin Kexiu.

  "Cheng Zihan, what are you thinking about that's making you look so distracted?" Qin Kexiu couldn't help but ask.

  Cheng Zihan suddenly came back to her senses, heard Qin Kexiu's words, and stared at him fiercely, "You're the one who's promiscuous! Your whole family is promiscuous! You even made the neighbors' family promiscuous!"

  Qin Kes mouth twitched slightly as he silently glanced at Cheng Zihans, this guy seems to be getting more and more rude.

  Cheng Zihan directly ignored Qin Kexiu's gaze and walked towards the door. Qin Kexiu hurriedly followed, "Where are you going?"

  "I'm going to find Han Du." Cheng Zihan replied directly without thinking too much.

  After leaving the plantation, Cheng Zihan walked directly towards Wangcheng Hotel based on the direction in his memory.

  "Han Du is not in Wang City now." Qin Ke Xiu followed closely behind him and kindly reminded him.

  "Not in Wangcheng? Then where did he go?" Cheng Zihan stopped in her tracks, turned around and looked at Qin Kexiu. Qin Kexiu was caught off guard and bumped into her, causing Cheng Zihan to stumble backward several steps, almost falling over. Luckily, Qin Kexiu quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, pulling her back.

  Cheng Zihan felt like she was on a roller coaster, tossing and turning, so exciting. At this time, she was leaning in Qin Kexiu's arms, smelling the strange smell on his body.

  Qin Kexiu had no pulse, nor was he breathing. His body was icy cold, without a hint of warmth. Yet, for some reason, Cheng Zihan seemed to be able to faintly hear the sound of his heart beating in his chest, and even feel his slightly cool breath gently brushing against her ear.

  This strange feeling made Cheng Zihuan somewhat puzzled, she pushed away Qin Kexiu and looked up at him with a bewildered expression.

  Qin Kesu's face was a bit strange, he lowered his head and glanced at Cheng Zihan, smiled wryly, then turned away, saying in a low voice: "You've been teasing me for a while, I'm scared, I've already returned to the capital."

  Cheng Zihan suddenly realized that Han Duan had already returned to Beijing, so who would she find to cooperate with now?

  Thinking about it gives me a headache, am I going to let Qin Hongtao get away cheaply?

  But as soon as she thought of Qin Hongtao daring to lay hands on his own family members, she immediately denied the idea.

  "What are you looking for Han Du?" Qin Ke Xiu looked at Cheng Zi Han, who was frowning and sighing, and couldn't help but ask.

  "Oh, I just went to the construction site and took a look. After calculating, it will take about a year for the project to be completed. In this year, workers' wages and various material costs need to be spent. The nursery business is not doing well now, and there's no income. Didn't Qin Hongtao receive a big order? I want to go find Han Duo and get that order over." Cheng Zihan analyzed her thoughts and the current situation with Qin Ke Xiu one by one.

  Qin Kexiu glanced at Cheng Zihan with a faint slant, these questions he naturally understood, and earlier than Cheng Zihan knew, but it seemed that Cheng Zihan was not really stupid, just reacted a bit slower.

  "I've already told Han Du to go back and inform the person in charge, anyway if Qin Hongtao can't deliver the goods, we'll take care of this business. He's already gone back with his tail between his legs, I estimate that soon people from Beijing will come over to discuss prices and sign a new agreement." Qin Kexiu kindly informed Cheng Zihuan about all these matters.

  Cheng Zihan widened her eyes and stared at Qin Kexiu, then nodded, "You're great, but why didn't you tell me?"

  "I thought you would agree." Qin Ke Xiu was very honest.

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched and she fell silent.

  Since Qin Ke Xiu has already arranged everything, she can also relax and go to Wangcheng for a stroll.

  After strolling around Wang City for a while and not buying anything, Cheng Zihan went to investigate the market with Qin Kexiu before returning to the plantation together.

  It was already noon, and everyone had finished work to prepare for lunch. After Cheng Zihan and Qin Kexiu had eaten together, the two of them directly entered the greenhouse to prepare to plant those peony seedlings.

  This time I bought a lot of peony seeds back from the flower and bird market, including ordinary ones and some precious varieties.

  It seems like the Qinglong Womochi species, although Cheng Zihang didn't know what kind of variation would occur after breeding, he still bought it.

  The seedlings in the greenhouse have all been transplanted, and the greenhouse is now empty. Cheng Zihan directly scattered the seeds, then found a place to sit down and watch them sprout.

  Qin Ke Xiu also found a seat next to her and sat down.

  The two people were very leisurely.

  "Qin Kexiu, don't you think that Han Duan seems a bit strange? He appears to be afraid of me." Cheng Zihan sat idly and found a topic to chat with Qin Kexiu.

  Qin Kexiu glanced at Cheng Zihan with a faint smile and said, "You really are quite frighteningly good-looking."

  "Get out!" Cheng Zihan kicked him hard with her foot.

  "Look at you, so fierce and intimidating. Which man wouldn't be afraid of you?" Qin Kesou dodged easily, unable to resist continuing to tease Cheng Zihuan.

  "Get out!" Cheng Zihan kicked again, but after the commotion, she calmed down, propped her chin with both hands, furrowed her brow, and looked like she was thinking seriously.

  Qin Kexiu looked at her like this and felt a bit curious, so he leaned in, "What are you thinking?"

  "I was thinking, I don't even know how Han Yi is doing now, whether his heart transplant surgery was successful or not. He's not here, and it feels like something is missing from my life. Isn't that strange? When he was around, I didn't pay much attention to him, but now that he's suddenly gone, I feel so unaccustomed to it." Cheng Zihan sighed and said slowly.

  Qin Kes face expression was somewhat unpleasant, and there seemed to be some sour little bubbles floating in the air.

  He just nodded slightly and didn't say anything.

  Cheng Zihan didn't care about him either and was worried about Han Yi's situation on her own.

  By dusk, the peony seedlings have all emerged, and it's estimated that they can be transplanted into pots by tomorrow.

  Cheng Zihan stretched and stood up, "I'm tired, going home to eat and sleep."

  Cheng Zihan arrived home when Cheng Zixi had already returned from Li Bojian's house, looking like he was in a great mood, it seems like they had a lot of fun today.

  As soon as she saw Cheng Zihan return, she immediately rushed over to hug her legs and exclaimed: "Sister, sister, I miss you so much."

  Cheng Zihan rubbed her head and thought for a moment. Since tomorrow and the day after tomorrow were weekends, she felt that Cheng Zixi was too lonely at home by herself. So she said to Cheng Zixi, "Zixi, how about going with sister to the botanical garden tomorrow?"

  Cheng Zixi nodded hastily.

  In the evening, Cheng Hai and his family returned home. They had dinner together as a family and chatted for a while before everyone went to bed, exhausted.

  Cheng Zihan still entered the Tree Spirit Space as usual to cultivate, but recently she felt that she had become a little different, her body became extremely light and agile, as if she could fly with just a slight jump.

  But after coming out of the Tree Spirit space, that feeling suddenly disappeared, leaving Cheng Zihuan very depressed.

  However, she found that her strength seemed to have increased, and sometimes with just one punch, a stone could be crushed into powder.

  Could this be the legendary internal force?

  "Zi Han jie jie, Zi Han jie jie!" Just as Cheng Zi Han was puzzled, a crisp and sweet voice came over.

  Cheng Zihan's astonished head turned around, and he saw the increasingly plump Tiancan running towards him. That round body made Cheng Zihan really worry that he would not be able to stand still and would roll over instead.

  And Tian Can really didn't disappoint Cheng Zihuan, running halfway before directly falling over, and then his round body rolled over like a ball.

  Cheng Zihan looked at the embarrassed expression and hurriedly went to help Tian Can up.

  This little bun, after sleeping for several months and waking up, seems to have gotten fatter, apart from that, there is no other change.

  Are all insects developing horizontally?

  When holding Tian Can, Cheng Zihan was really puzzled.

  "Zi Han sister, I miss you so much." Tian Can pouted and acted cute while grabbing Zi Han's fingers and sucking on them directly.

  Cheng Zihan could see the blood in her own veins being slowly sucked into the mouth of the Tiancan, and it seemed that the Tiancan's body had grown another millimeter horizontally.

  The corners of her mouth twitched violently, and Cheng Zihan withdrew her hand.

  The swallow licked its finger, with an expression of unfinished meaning.

  Cheng Zihan suddenly thought that the blood of the Tiancan has an inhibitory effect on cancer cells and can also improve the survival rate of animals and plants. But the Tiancan drinks its own blood, so does its own blood have this function?

  Before Cheng Zihan could finish his daydream, Mangcang suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He gave Cheng Zihan a cold glance and said, "Cheng Zihan, you're thinking too much. Your blood is just ordinary human blood, it doesn't have any special effects. However, because you've assimilated with the Heavenly Silkworm, you've inherited some of its special abilities. So now, you're not afraid of any toxins invading your body, which means your body is now immune to all poisons."

  Cheng Zihan was a bit disappointed and pouted, but thinking about it, being immune to all poisons didn't seem so bad either, so she just made do with it.

  Mang Tian looked at Xiao Yan with a glance, "The little guy has made quite some progress, but still needs to continue working hard."

  Cheng Zihan also looked at the silkworm, but apart from seeing that it had become plumper, she couldn't see where it had made progress. Thinking about it, she estimated that it was because her own cultivation wasn't enough, so she nodded slightly and continued to sit cross-legged.

  "Zi Han, your body can't continue to cultivate now, why not learn the self-defense techniques I taught you first?" Mang Cang kindly advised as he saw Cheng Zi Han still meditating and cultivating.

  Cheng Zihan opened her eyes, thinking that she hadn't made any progress in her recent cultivation. Instead, she felt like the power inside her body had accumulated too much, giving her a feeling of being on the verge of bursting.

  She nodded and took out a secret book given by Mang Cang, preparing to practice some self-defense techniques. However, when she saw the words on the cover of the book, her mouth twitched violently, and she looked up at Mang Cang.

  Mang Cang thought that Cheng Zihan's eyes were a bit strange, so he took a look at the book in her hand. As soon as he saw it, his face changed and he quickly snatched the book back, stuffing it into his bosom.

  Cheng Zihan's mouth continued to twitch, silently looking at Mangcang with a thick sarcasm in his eyes.

  Seeing Mang Cang's embarrassed expression, she walked over and smiled: "Mang Cang, don't worry, I absolutely won't tell anyone that you actually hid a ** book, but I'm really curious, what's inside the book?"

  Mang Cang's face turned even uglier upon hearing the words, he stretched out his hand to push away Cheng Zi Han and scolded: "You little kid, asking so many questions for what? Quickly go practice your skills!"

  Tian Can also heard Cheng Zihan's words and was a bit curious, so she leaned in, "Sister Zihan, what is **?"

  "It's a book that teaches you what it means to have an old tree with deep roots, and what it means to shoot the sun like Hou Yi." Cheng Zihan said with a mischievous grin, her eyes gleaming with amusement.

  Mang Cang's face turned black when he heard this, and he really wanted to slap Cheng Ziheng out of the Tree Spirit space.

  He glared at Cheng Zihuan fiercely, turned around and left, also taking away the curious Tiansan who wanted to get to the bottom of things. As he walked away, he scolded Cheng Zihuan: "Don't corrupt young children!"

  Cheng Zihan covered her mouth and laughed happily. If she hadn't misread it, that book seemed to be telling the story of not a man and woman's boudoir skills, but... two men's?

  This guy is really rough around the edges, but looking at him and Tian Can together, somehow it feels a bit ambiguous?

  Cheng Zihan hehe smiled twice and took out another book, this one was normal, Yi Jin Jing.

  She opened the book and started practicing according to the pictures above.

  She left after practicing in the space for a few hours.

  After resting for a night, I went to the plantation early the next day.

  The peony seedlings in the greenhouse are growing very well. Cheng Zihan had them transplanted outside to see the sunlight, and then went to that small hill to take a look at the peony seedlings on top of the mountain.

  The flower buds here have already formed, and it is estimated that they will bloom in a few days. Each bud is as big as a baby's fist, and you can see the bright red petals.

  There are only more than sixty strains of flower seedlings here.

  Cheng Zihan took a look around and then looked at the chickens, ducks and geese raised by Li Lan. They were all very sturdy, with the chickens basically weighing around 6-7 jin (about 3-4 kg) each, and the geese estimated to be over 10 jin (about 5 kg) each.

  It seems that the free-range farming in this mountain has a good effect, so these chickens, ducks and geese are all growing very well.

  The pond at the foot of the mountain has been treated by Cheng Zihang and no longer has schistosomiasis. Cheng Zihang also saw those worms, which were as thin as hair and had a bright red body. If you don't pay attention, you really can't find them.

  These insects died and became food for chickens, ducks and geese. Mangcang also said that there would be no problem, so Cheng Zihuan felt at ease.

  Everything seemed to be moving towards a stable track, and Cheng Zihan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  By September, she will have to go back to school, and things here can only be handled by Qin Kexiu and Cheng Hai.

  The current land use is mainly for plantations, farms and real estate. The farm currently only has aquatic farming, and the fish ponds have not been dug yet. It's estimated to be done by mid-month, which means there are still about 7-8 days left.

  In addition to this, Cheng Zihan also plans to raise some cattle and sheep. Anyway, there is still a lot of empty land now, which can be divided into a piece of land as a farm. In the farm, in addition to raising pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese, other vegetables and fruits can also be planted. However, no one has time to take care of these things for the time being, so Cheng Zihan temporarily put it aside.

  She had already thought of the location, so she drew out the land on the side of Zhenglong, which just happened to be connected to the aquatic breeding farm. Later, when Wangcheng develops, this place can become a special farmhouse for receiving tourists. At that time, as long as several houses are built as guesthouses and a restaurant is added, it will be almost complete.

  In the future, such farmhouses will be very popular. As long as you pay a certain fee, you can enter the farmhouse and freely catch your favorite poultry and livestock. You can also pick your own vegetables and fruits to eat. Of course, you can grab whatever you want, but after catching it, you still need to pay according to the market price. However, the subsequent processing fees are exempted. Calculating this way is much cheaper than eating outside, and it's green, environmentally friendly, and healthy. Who wouldn't refuse such a consumption pattern?

  Cheng Zihan plans to start working on the farm after the project on the fish pond side is completed, and then hand it over to Cheng Hai and Li Lan for management. The planting area on this side of the forest, flower field, and medicinal field have already been assigned to specific people in charge. Cheng Hai can take it easy and only be responsible for a breeding farm, which is a very relaxing task for him.

  As she thought about these things, Cheng Zihan walked towards the plantation garden.

  The trees in the forest area here have grown very well, lush and green, and even wildflowers and grasses have sprouted under the trees. The maintenance workers did not clear them all away, leaving a carpet of greenery that looks very beautiful, adding vitality to the entire garden.

  Moreover, Cheng Zihan recognized these wild grasses, some of which had certain medicinal value, and leaving them there wouldn't affect the growth of the seedlings.

  With the help of Tian Can Ling liquid, these wild grasses grew particularly luxuriantly and the wild flowers bloomed exceptionally vibrantly.

  It happened that a worker came in to check if the seedlings had been damaged by insects. Seeing Cheng Zihang, he smiled and came over to greet him.

  Cheng Zihan smiled and returned the courtesy, seeing dozens of people along the way before finally leaving the forest area.

  The situation on this side of the flower field is also very good. The seedlings are growing well and as far as the eye can see, it's all lush green.

  During this time, you can also see purple coleus, begonia and other flower seedlings.

  The sales of flower seedlings are still good all year round, even now, it can be seen that there are customers coming to pick up goods, but the business of tree seedlings is relatively slower.

  Roses, carnations, lilies and jasmine are the best-selling flower seedlings because they are relatively cheap and have strong ornamental value.

  Apart from this, some people also like to buy plants like fortune trees that are a bit more expensive to take back home. Because the prices are higher, there will be more people asking about them than buying them.

  The Army Day is approaching, so the government has also ordered some flower seedlings, but they are all cheap chrysanthemum-like flower seedlings, and each seedling costs only about one yuan. The quantity is quite large, though.

  Qin Ke Xiu has been busy for the past few days, running back and forth between Nan City and Wang Cheng. The houses at Yu Jing Tai have all been sold out, but there are still many people in Nan City who want to buy a house. However, Cheng Zi Han does not plan to develop new buildings here for the time being. The total number of houses of various specifications in the first phase of Yu Jing Tai has exceeded 100,000 sets, and it is unlikely that she will consider investing money again to start the second phase in the short term.

  The sales office in Nanshi has not been withdrawn, so every day there are a large number of customers coming to ask about when the next batch of houses will be sold. The house price has risen from the initial lowest 500 yuan per square meter to the later period's lowest 1,000 yuan per square meter, and the highest price even reached 3,000 yuan per square meter. At that time, such a house price was already considered sky-high, but because of some propaganda in the early stage, everyone regarded owning a house in Yujingtai as a kind of capital to show off.

  Everyone loves to compare, if you have something, I naturally want it too. If I have the same thing as you, then I'll want something better than yours. This psychology of comparison is also a very important factor in promoting national economy.

  Qin Kexiu expressed his sincerest apologies to all customers who still wanted to buy houses in Nan City, and then withdrew the sales office in Nan City, taking a group of sales staff back to Wangcheng.

  Wangcheng has not yet built a sales center, and the twenty people who returned are temporarily arranged in a simple office. Each person moved a chair and desk, which is considered an office.

  However, they are all hardworking people. What's important is that the pay is high. This month, so many houses were sold, and just signing contracts made their hands sore. Thinking about when the salary will be paid next time, those thick stacks of cash, a smile floated on everyone's face.

  Cheng Zihan is also exhausted, running around various flower and bird markets every day to understand the latest sales trends of flowers. As long as they are popular and have a good sales route, he has brought back many to try planting. Now, Yihuan Garden has gained some reputation, and many flower merchants are willing to cooperate with Cheng Zihan. His plantation has developed into one of the top two plantations in Wangcheng area.

  San Sheng, Wang Cheng, Fan Cheng and other nearby cities' flower merchants all came to Yihuan Garden to buy seedlings, although it's not the peak season now, but maintaining a good cooperative relationship from now on will be beneficial for getting priority cooperation rights during the peak season at the end of the year.

  The year-end peak season is a major turning point for the flower market, and many flower merchants may not make much money throughout the year, placing all their hopes on the end of the year.

  At the end of the year, whether it's the government or individuals, every household will definitely buy flowers, whether they're potted plants or cut flowers. This has already become a tradition in China. Having fresh flowers at home symbolizes a prosperous and thriving new year.

  However, compared to fresh cut flowers, more people prefer potted plants. Year-old oranges, fortune bamboos, evergreen plants, narcissus, and orchids are all very popular among consumers.

  However, high-end flowers can only be consumed by groups with high incomes. Although the sales volume of this type of flower is not particularly large, it has a high profit margin. In recent years, high-end orchids have been particularly favored by Chinese people, and even rare orchids priced at tens of thousands of yuan are sought after by many buyers.

  This year, Cheng Zihan plans to go to the flower market in Nanshi at the end of the year to make some money. She has some rare orchids and peonies that are worth a lot of money. With her connections from Yu Jing Tai, she already has a complete customer base in Nanshi, consisting of high-income individuals who have nothing but money to burn. If they really like flowers, they will definitely be willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.

  Planning too much, but Cheng Zihan still needs time to slowly sort things out. Doing business can't be too hasty, it must be gradual and steady. Only by first occupying the fresh flower market in a dozen or so cities near Wangcheng and consolidating one's position, then starting to slowly develop upwards, will this approach be stable and secure, without any trouble arising.

  In the blink of an eye, a week's time had passed and the construction at the aquaculture farm was finally completed. Cheng Zihan took all the staff from the plantation to attend the completion ceremony, and the aquaculture farm officially began operations.

  After the aquatic farm is put into production, Cheng Zihang's first thing to do is to start preparing for the farm.

  She had already drawn out a beautiful and detailed blueprint of the farm, which startled Cheng Hai when she handed it over to him.

  "Dad, this is the farm next to the fish pond. I originally planned to use it for real estate development, but I thought about it and decided not to. Let's just build a farm instead. With the area of the fish pond, it's a total of 120,000 square meters, which is almost enough. Just raise some pigs, cows, and sheep. You're all experienced masters, so when the time comes, I'll leave everything here in your hands. There's no need to do much here, just build some sheds for the animals to sleep in at night, and plant some pasture grass. The pigpen can be built directly on top of the fish pond's foundation. As for how many to raise, you decide. If there aren't enough people, we can hire more. There are also people raising cows and sheep in the village now, they're all experienced too. When the time comes, we can just buy their animals and invite them back to work here...”

  Everything has been arranged properly, and the fish pond still needs to be filled with water. Before putting it into cultivation, the water body also needs to undergo a series of treatments. Fortunately, there are many skilled people in this aspect in the village, and as soon as Cheng Hai goes back and calls for help, someone will come to assist immediately.

  The farm needs to plant pasture and also needs to plant some fruit trees. Cheng Hai has also found someone responsible for handling it.

  After finishing everything, it was already late, so Cheng Zihang went home to rest first.

  After a good rest, I threw myself into another busy day of work early next morning.

  And on this day, the person she had been waiting for a long time finally came, bringing her a big good news.
