Rakish Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 136: The Exceptional Woman Village Chief

```

just as li qianfan entered the small courtyard, the fragment of the ’heavenly spirit vase’ hidden in his pocket reacted. he quietly took out the heavenly spirit vase, and noticed the fragment shimmering with a faint luster.

from this incessantly flickering luster, li qianfan could sense that the heavenly spirit vase was very excited.

what was this all about?

as he caressed the icy heavenly spirit vase, li qianfan suddenly had a very bold thought: could it be that there was a fragment of the heavenly spirit vase within this little courtyard?

yes, it must be so!

once this idea surfaced in his mind, li qianfan felt extremely excited. generally speaking, treasures like the heavenly spirit vase, when split into parts, definitely maintained a connection with each other.

when they were in close proximity, there was bound to be some sort of reaction.

"brother qianfan, this courtyard is not very big, nor is it too clean, but a good cleaning will certainly make it decent." considering li qianfan was blind, zhao susu introduced the place to him with great consideration.

the environment of the courtyard had already been observed by li qianfan. just like zhao susu said, the yard was not too big, around fifty square meters. because it had been uninhabited for a long time, it looked quite dirty.

fortunately, the yard was paved with cement, so it wasn’t overgrown with weeds.

although the environment left much to be desired, li qianfan was only going to use it for alchemy. he would still return to his sister-in-law’s home for his usual stay, so the poor environment was not an issue.

most importantly, this small courtyard had a fragment of the heavenly spirit vase, so he would not hesitate at all and decided to rent it on the spot.

li qianfan asked, "zhao tianjie, how much is the rent for this house?"

zhao tianjie said, "since this place is not in the county but in the village, the price is very cheap. three hundred and fifty a month. if you really want to rent it, i can talk to the real estate agent to negotiate with the landlord, about three hundred a month should be fine."

"alright, then let the real estate agent discuss the price with the landlord."

although three hundred and fifty a month wasn’t much for the current li qianfan, saving a bit was still worthwhile.

just as zhao tianjie was about to make a phone call, a woman dressed in a white shirt and black trousers ran out from inside. she said, "tianjie, there’s no need to call, i’m already here. i was taking a phone call inside just now."

"qianfan, just call her sister qing. she’s the village head of xiangye village and also works part-time as a real estate agent. when i rented a house here, it was she who found it for me. she’s a great sister who has taken good care of me and susu."

zhao tianjie hurriedly introduced ye qing as she approached li qianfan.

could it be hidden inside her clothes?

while li qianfan was wildly guessing, ye qing came back from the phone call and said, "tianjie, qianfan, i’m really sorry, but the landlord is only willing to go down by twenty yuan, three hundred and thirty a month. can you accept this price?"

li qianfan immediately nodded and said, "i can accept!"

"okay, i happen to have brought the contract with me, so let’s sign it, and you can transfer the money to me directly."

ye qing led a group of people into the house, where she took a contract out of her handbag.

while signing the contract, li qianfan kept glancing into the handbag with the corner of his eye, only to be disappointed that, besides simple cosmetics and a few miscellaneous items, it did not contain the heavenly spirit vase fragment he was hoping to see.

to avoid raising suspicion, li qianfan quickly withdrew his gaze and signed his name earnestly.

afterward, li qianfan added ye qing on wechat, transferred her six months’ rent, a total of two thousand yuan, and then sent another month’s rent as her intermediary fee.

"all done, qianfan. if you need anything, just give me a call. i have some business at the village committee, so i’ll be taking my leave now."

ye qing put away the contract and bid farewell.

after ye qing had left, li qianfan frowned slightly, confirming his suspicion that the heavenly spirit vase fragment was indeed on ye qing. the sense from the fragment in his pocket grew fainter as she walked away.

but where exactly had ye qing placed the fragment?

however, li qianfan didn’t dwell on it too much. after all, he had met ye qing, and there would eventually be a chance to come into close contact and look for the heavenly spirit vase fragment.

"ring ring ring." at that moment, zhao tianjie’s phone rang. after answering the call, he excused himself from li qianfan, "qianfan, there’s some business at the martial pavilion and the instructors have a meeting, i have to go."

since li qianfan was not an instructor, he didn’t need to return to the four seas martial pavilion with zhao tianjie. moreover, he was planning to spend the day refining some yang strengthening pills to quickly deliver a batch to lin yiren.

zhao susu did not leave with zhao tianjie. instead, she said, "qianfan brother, let me help you tidy up the house. there’s some dust around; i’ll help you clean up."

"thank you, susu." li qianfan didn’t refuse and smiled while nodding his head.

afterward, the two of them went to the village’s small store to buy some tools, and then they both got busy. in just over an hour with their concerted effort, they had the house clean and tidy.

seeing that li qianfan lacked bedding, zhao susu ran back to her home and brought back a brand new set of bedding, warming li qianfan’s heart.

"susu, you’re really kind. you’re diligent and capable. whoever marries you in the future is going to be in luck," said li qianfan, as he looked at zhao susu who, despite being covered in sweat, had no complaints.

"sigh." however, zhao susu let out a soft sigh and said, "what’s the use of being diligent? university is starting soon, and i’ll have to rely on my brother to pay the tuition. honestly, i don’t want to spend my brother’s money; he has it tough enough as it is."

hearing this, li qianfan’s eyes shifted as he asked, "susu, do you want to earn money?"
