Chapter 7
Looking down on people
Lu Shi interrupted first, "Second Uncle, you don't forget that a year ago, you borrowed 50,000 yuan from our family to pay for Lu Yang's mental illness treatment, do you?"
"The deadline has now passed. My father and I have come to your house today to inform you that from this day forward, your peach orchard will belong to our family!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fu frowned.
Back then, he begged and pleaded everywhere to borrow money to treat Lu Yang's mental illness, and just then, Lu Hua took the initiative to come to their door to lend them money.
The only requirement was that the IOU should state that if the money couldn't be repaid by the due date, their peach orchard would be used as collateral.
They knew the other party was like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—it had no good intentions and was specifically targeting their peach orchard.
However, under those circumstances, Lu Fu still resolutely signed his name on the IOU, promising to act in accordance with the IOU if he couldn't repay the money.
but?
Lu Fu retorted, "I know about this, but doesn't the IOU say it's due in three days?"
Lu Hua interjected, "Second brother, it's true there are still three days left, but everyone in the village knows your family is barely scraping by. How are you going to pay me back in three days?"
"And my taking over your family's peach orchard was also in accordance with the terms of the original loan agreement!"
"No matter where we go, we will always be in the right!"
Suddenly, Lu Shi pulled out a pre-prepared transfer contract and handed it to Lu Fu, saying mockingly, "Second Uncle, although there are still three days left, in my opinion, it makes no difference whether you sign it three days later or now!"
"If you really feel you've been taken advantage of, our family can actually offer you some compensation. I'll take the liberty of giving your family an extra five hundred yuan, how about that?"
Swish swish!
As he spoke, Lu Shi took out five bright red 100-yuan bills from his pocket and handed them to Lu Fu with a condescending air, saying again, "Second Uncle, now you can obediently sign, right?"
Upon seeing this, Lu Yang was furious.
Without any hesitation, he slapped Lu Shi's hand, knocking the object out of his grasp.
He scoffed, "Lu Shi, who wants your five hundred yuan charity!"
"Since there are still three days left on the contract, let's stick to the contract!"
Lu Fu, his face grim, angrily retorted, "Yang'er is right, aren't there still three days left?"
"Now that Yang'er's mind has returned to normal, I believe he will definitely be able to raise 50,000 yuan within three days to pay your family back!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Hua was extremely surprised. At first, he hadn't paid much attention, but now he finally realized that Lu Yang's mind had inexplicably returned to normal. It was truly a strange thing.
Lu Shi was also extremely shocked.
From a young age, everyone in the village would compare him to Lu Yang when they talked about him. Every time, he was completely defeated by Lu Yang, which caused him to harbor resentment towards Lu Yang since childhood.
Seeing that Lu Yang's mind had returned to normal, he was extremely displeased and blurted out sarcastically, "Second Uncle, so what if the idiot's mind has returned to normal?"
"He's a half-baked college graduate who actually didn't graduate, and he thinks he can scrape together 50,000 yuan in three days? I think you're dreaming!"
Lu Yang scoffed, "Lu Shi, don't look down on me. If you can't scrape together 50,000 yuan in three days, then you're a good-for-nothing. As for whether I can scrape it together, you'll see in three days!"
Lu Shi, enraged at being called trash, retorted, "Idiot, who are you calling trash?"
Lu Yang sneered, "So what if I call you trash? Go ahead and try!"
When Lu Yang was mentally unstable, Lu Shi could bully him at will, but now that Lu Yang's mind has returned to normal, he really doesn't dare to lay a hand on him.
After all, Lu Yang was much taller than him, his height alone was enough to overpower him, how could he possibly win?
Lu Hua chimed in, "Lu Fu, since that fool Lu Yang says he'll pay back the money in three days, let's wait and see. I really hope he'll give us a huge surprise!"
Lu Shi threatened, somewhat unwillingly, "Fool, don't be arrogant. If you don't pay me back in three days, I'll make you kneel on the ground and beg me to let you go!"
After saying that, the father and son, looking smug and self-satisfied, swaggered away from the courtyard.
Seeing the arrogant demeanor of the father and son, Lu Fu behind him was filled with rage. He couldn't help but pound his crippled legs with his fists and roar, "This is outrageous! Outrageous!"
"If my legs weren't crippled, how could they have the audacity to come and bully us!"
Lu Yang stopped his father's beating and comforted him, "Dad, calm down. Don't worry, they can't take over our peach orchard. I can definitely raise 50,000 yuan within three days!"
As he spoke, Lu Yang immediately carried a large basket on his back and headed towards their family's peach orchard.
His confidence stems from the spiritual liquid condensed within his Dragon Ball.
Through the Dragon Balls, we learned that the elixir is a miraculous substance that can nourish all things.
He decided to try nourishing their ripe peaches with the elixir to see what kind of magical changes would occur.
Arriving at the peach orchard, he found a huge peach tree laden with fruit, and with a thought, a drop of spiritual liquid appeared in his palm.
He dripped it directly onto the tree roots.
In order to allow the peach tree to absorb the energy as quickly as possible, he immediately made a sword-finger gesture to guide the spiritual energy in his dantian and then stimulate the spiritual liquid.
This allows the peach trees to absorb nutrients more quickly.
as predicted.
After a few minutes of stimulation, he was astonished to discover that the peaches on the peach tree above his head had changed dramatically.
He was stunned for a moment.
The peaches, originally only the size of an egg, grew to the size of a small bowl after being nourished by the spiritual liquid, more than doubling in size.
In addition to being large and round, the peaches have become even redder, looking as tempting as dazzling rubies.
Lu Yang quickly picked one, put it in his mouth, and took a bite.
Crunch and crisp!
The peaches are crisp and refreshing, with a delicious sweet flavor.
It tasted sweeter than genuine wild honey to him.
It made his entire taste buds explode, and he began to dance with joy.
He suddenly became more energetic than ever before, as if he wasn't eating ordinary peaches from the human world, but rather celestial peaches from the Queen Mother of the West's Peach Garden.
Lu Yang couldn't help but exclaim, "Delicious! It's absolutely delicious!"
Based on its delicious taste and the excellent appearance of the peaches, he was certain that it would sell like hotcakes in the market.
Selling peaches would easily raise the 50,000 yuan within three days—it's child's play!
"W-w-w-w...I feel like my sexual prowess is terrifying!"
Suddenly, Lu Yang blurted out something that seemed completely unbelievable.
And all of this was caused by the peach he had just eaten.
He discovered through introspection that the peach transformed into a magical energy upon entering his mouth, which was instantly absorbed by a certain part of him, granting him a terrifying power immediately.
Lu Yang never imagined that the peaches nourished by the spiritual liquid would not only become top-quality peaches, but also have the magical effect of nourishing yin and strengthening the waist.
