Chapter 747: Chapter 747

Lin Chen glanced into the car, but there was no one inside!

Just then, Li Yuqing came running out, holding a bag: "Lin Chen, look, this was left by the group of people just now."

Lin Chen took the bag and opened it to find, to his surprise, car keys for a Mercedes and its vehicle registration, with his own name on it.

That's when Lin Chen realized they weren't being stingy but were actually very generous, as the Mercedes was worth at least seven or eight hundred thousand.

Lin Chen found Zhou Yong's number and gave him a call: "Mayor Zhou, what's the story with this car?"

Zhou Yong chuckled: "Mr. Lin, you saved the lives of my whole family. This is a small token of our family's gratitude. You must accept it."

"But this gift is too generous." Lin Chen said awkwardly.

"Does Mr. Lin think our lives are worth less than a car? Mr. Lin, you really must accept it no matter what," Zhou Yong said earnestly.

Seeing that Zhou Yong insisted, Lin Chen felt it would be rude to keep refusing, so he nodded: "Thank you then, Mayor Zhou."

Zhou Yong chuckled again: "Once my wife is out of confinement, I plan to bring them to thank Mr. Lin in person."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen grinned: "I was thinking of buying a car, and now here one is being delivered."

At that moment, Li Fuyou, with stars in his eyes, ran out: "Goodness, they really gave a big Mercedes, Lin Chen! Shouldn't this count as income for our hospital too?"

"Dad, enough. This is something earned by others out there; Mayor Zhou is thanking Lin Chen for it," Li Yuqing said bluntly.

Li Fuyou glared at his daughter: "They say a daughter is as good as water thrown out, you haven't even married and already you're turning your elbow out."

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Li Yuqing's cheeks reddened.

Now, both Li Fuyou and Li Xueqing were extremely happy.

Ever since Lin Chen came to the clinic, their lives had been getting better day by day.

Lin Chen said to Li Yuqing: "Let's go, let's take the car for a spin."

"Hmm!" Li Yuqing nodded.

Lin Chen put the ginseng he bought in the car, then told Li Fuyou: "Uncle Li, Yuqing and I are going to the pharmacy."

Li Fuyou, surprisingly generous, waved his hand: "Go on then, be careful on the road."

Watching the car disappear, Li Fuyou nodded in approval: "This young man is not bad, Yuqing will definitely have a good life if she's with him."

Just then, Li Fuyou's phone rang, and Zhou Lun's voice came from the other end: "Old Li, how's it going with that matchmaking matter for my daughter I asked you about last time?"

Li Fuyou sighed: "It's not that I don't want to help you, Zhou, but Lin Chen has a girlfriend now."

"What? Whose daughter?" Zhou Lun asked, puzzled.

"Of course, it's my daughter, they really are a handsome couple," Li Fuyou said proudly.

"I can't believe this, Old Li! That's really low of you, stealing the match!" Zhou Lun's voice came dejectedly from the other side.

At this point, Lin Chen was driving the big Mercedes on the road to the city center.

Driving the car, Lin Chen felt a bit melancholic. He still preferred his small electric car; although the Mercedes was comfortable, the two of them were a bit too far apart in it.

"What are you thinking about?" Li Yuqing asked with a smile.

Lin Chen replied: "Nothing really, I was just thinking maybe we should buy a villa later, get Uncle Li to move in too. He's getting on in years and always sleeping on that hard bed isn't comfortable, he should have a home too!"

Home! Hearing this name, Li Yuqing lost her focus a bit, ever since the accident during her father's surgery, their house had to be sold to pay the debts, and she and her father had been renting outside. Over the years, they had moved countless times and suffered a lot.

"Lin Chen, thank you. Once I've earned enough money, I will make sure he has a comfortable home," Li Yuqing said with a smile.

"It will just take a little while, let's sell these ginsengs and then go buy a house." Lin Chen replied with a smile.

Lin Chen arrived at Bai Cao Tang, and indeed, the server from before was not there anymore, another girl was standing at the service counter.

"Server, I'm here to sell ginseng," said Lin Chen with a smile.

"Selling ginseng?" Upon hearing that Lin Chen was there to sell ginseng, the server was initially startled but then became immensely enthusiastic.

She knew that just yesterday, a staff member had offended a young man who came to sell ginseng and ended up being reassigned to the logistics department to handle medicine preparations.

"Sir, where is your ginseng?" asked the server with a smile.

"Lin Chen set a basket of ginseng down on the floor; these are it, I've already sorted them, the ones on top are five hundred years old, those below are three hundred, and there's more…"

"All these are wild ginseng of so many years, let me report this to the manager, please wait a moment." The server let Lin Chen and Li Yuqing sit on a sofa and personally served them tea.

It wasn't long before Mu Feng came rushing over with the server.

"Mr. Lin, it's really you, why did you come to sell ginseng again?" Mu Feng said with a smile.

"Yes, I picked some more from the mountains, do you still buy them?" asked Lin Chen.

"We do, of course we do, now ginseng is indeed a scarce medicine in the market, we will buy as much as you have," Mu Feng responded with a smile.

Lin Chen nodded and said, "These ginsengs are all wild ones I picked from the mountains, these stalks are a hundred years old, those from recent years are only a few years old."

Mu Feng nodded and said: "Let's quickly take in these ginsengs."

"Do you need to have them authenticated by an expert?" the server asked cautiously.

"Authenticate my ass, Mr. Lin is the expert, just pay him according to the years he mentioned," Mu Feng told the server.

The server hurried to settle the payment for Lin Chen.

Lin Chen said with a smile, "Mu Feng, I have some artificially cultivated ginseng here too, but it's also seeded with wild ginseng, I don't know if you buy those?"

"Anything you've cultivated? Our soil here seems pretty hard for growing ginseng. But rest assured, Mr. Lin, wild ginseng always has a good market, although younger ones might be cheaper, as long as you have them, we'll buy them," Mu Feng said with a smile.

"Great, there should be another batch of wild ginseng in three days," Lin Chen said with a laugh.

"Three days?" Hearing this, Li Yuqing was momentarily stunned.

"Weren't those ginsengs just planted? And how could anything grow on that saline-alkali land, let alone in three days, even three years would be tough!"

Soon, the server came over: "Mr. Lin, the money for the ginsengs you just sold has been transferred to your account, a total of twelve million."

"That much?" Lin Chen was momentarily stunned.

The server said with a smile, "According to Mr. Mu Feng's instructions, we bought all the ginseng at the highest price."

Lin Chen nodded and said to Mu Feng, "Then, thank you."

Mu Feng laughed heartily, "If it weren't for Mr. Lin, my father's chronic condition wouldn't have healed, nor would we have gained strength so fast; it's the least I could do."

After exchanging a few more words with Mu Feng, Lin Chen and Li Yuqing left Bai Cao Tang and drove straight to the real estate office.
