Chapter 18: The Books Are Old, But the Knowledge Is New By the time they returned home, it was already three in the morning due to the mountain roads. If they had taken the dirt road, they probably wouldn’t have returned until 11 or 12 the next morning. “Woof! Woof!” The quiet night made the village dogs’ barking seem unusually loud. Not long after the barking, voices could be heard from outside the yard. “Brother, you’re finally back!” Caiyun ran over to help carry things. “You really…-

Chapter 15: Broad Daylight “Why are you both staring at me like that?” After leaving the acquisition station, Lin Heng asked his father and wife, who had been staring at him ever since they stepped out. “Is everything you said to Manager Jin true?” Lin Fu couldn’t help but ask. “It’s all stuff I read in books, just made up.” Lin Heng casually replied.

Chapter 14: How much was the Ginseng sold for? “Don’t worry, when the time comes, you won’t have the heart to let it go,” Lin Heng said with a smile, leading the dog ahead. The town is quite far, so we’ll have to push harder. The three of them walked more than twenty kilometers in one go, crossing over ten mountains. “Finally, we’ve reached the main road,” Lin Heng sighed, sitting on a stone by the side of the road. He looked at the rushing river outside and took a deep breath. Xiong Ba…

Although she wasn’t quite used to calling him “husband,” she did it because Lin Heng liked it. “Oh, my back,” Lin Heng tried to sit up but felt a sharp pain in his back, so he lay down again. “I’ll rub some safflower oil…

Chapter 11: The Art of a Fisherman Lin Heng turned his head and saw his nephew Lin Wei fling a crab with a smack, causing it to hit a rock and die. “Damn it, a dead crab!” Lin Wei, sucking on his finger, kicked it a few more times in frustration. “Did it break your skin?” Lin Heng asked. “It’s fine, just a scratch from the claw,” Lin Wei shook his head, moving closer to Lin Heng.
