Following Dong Dong's advice, he had been trying his best to curry favor with Jiang Tian.
He had learned from Xiao Wei that Jiang Tian had cured Old Weirdo Tang's illness. He should be an expert in medicine and martial arts, so he should be a cultivator.
He knew that an expert like Jiang Tian did not care about worldly wealth. What he liked most was Spirit Herbs and old herbs. So, he had asked his men to gather all kinds of magical herbs.
He was almost done with the preparations and was about to visit Jiang Tian. He did not expect to run into him here.
"Brother Hao, don't be angry. This guy was disrespectful to you. I was just about to teach him a lesson! I will call someone now! "
Seeing Zhou Zhenghao's strange expression, Hou Tianlai took out his phone and was about to call someone to teach Jiang Tian a lesson. He had always disliked Jiang Tian, and now he had found a reason to do so.
"Slap!"
Suddenly, Zhou Zhenghao turned around and slapped Hou Tianlai's face.
"Brother Hao!" Hou Tianlai covered his face in shock and did not know what to do.
"Slap!"
Zhou Zhenghao slapped Yuan Yuan's face again and said with a gloomy face, "How dare you disrespect Grandmaster Jiang? If you don't want to die, kneel down before Grandmaster Jiang!"
"Master Kang? Who is that? "
"Don't tell me it's Jiang Tian?"
Everyone was dumbfounded. They did not understand why Zhou Zhenghao suddenly lost his temper.
Zhou Zhenghao quickly walked up to Jiang Tian, his waist almost touching the ground, and said in the most respectful tone he had ever used in his life, "Little Zhou greets Grandmaster Jiang. I didn't know you were here, so I came late to welcome you, please forgive me!"
Jiang Tian picked up a grape from the plate and peeled it leisurely. After peeling the skin, he looked up and said, "Mm."
"His name is Jiang Tian, Master Kang, and he calls himself Xiao Zhou …"
Everyone present was shocked to see Zhou Zhenghao, who was extremely powerful in Lin Zhou, kneeling in front of Jiang Tian. It was like a primary school student meeting his teacher.
Liu Yating was confused.
Wasn't he just a PR manager for Zhao's Pharmaceutical Company? How did he become "Master Kang"? Moreover, Zhou Zhenghao was too respectful to him. He wouldn't even be so respectful to his own father!
Hou Tianlai was confused. He frowned and said in a low voice,
"Brother Hao, you've got the wrong person. He's my classmate. He's a good-for-nothing. Now he's a public relations officer!"
Only then did Zhou Zhenghao notice that Hou Tianlai and Liu Yating hadn't knelt down yet. He turned around abruptly and slapped them twice.
"Did I recognize the wrong person, or are you all blind? This is Master Kang. Those medicinal herbs are for him!"
"What? He, he is Master Kang … "
When Hou Tianlai heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he knelt down with a plop.
Rumor had it that Master Kang could control ghosts. He was so powerful that even the Tang family had a good relationship with him.
However, he never would have thought that the famous Grandmaster Jiang was the classmate from a poor family who didn't even have a mobile phone or a car to get around.
"Brother Hao, we really didn't know …"
Yuan Yuan also knelt down in fear. Tears streamed down her cheeks and her body trembled.
Others might not know, but she knew that Zhou Zhenghao was a big shot who had connections with both the government and the underworld. He had taken lives before.
"Ask them to leave. I don't want to see them in Lin Zhou anymore!" Jiang Tian continued to eat grapes and said lightly.
"Get up!" Brother Long and a few bodyguards carried the two of them out of the room.
Hou Tianlai didn't give up. He struggled and begged, "Jiang Tian, please give me a chance. Please forgive me …"
"Shut up! Do you think you can call Master Kang by his name? "
The clear-eyed Ah Long punched him in the stomach, forcing him to swallow the rest of his words back into his stomach. He coldly shouted, "If you want to die, don't involve the boss. Grandmaster Jiang not giving the order to kill you is already being lenient!"
After the two of them were carried out, the room was silent again.
Jiang Tian was too lazy to speak. Zhou Zhenghao didn't know how to break the deadlock. Liu Yating, Zhao Dan, Zheng Li, and the other classmates didn't dare to speak at all.
Zhou Zhenghao's bodyguards, on the other hand, were trembling in fear as if they had seen a god.
In the end, Zhou Zhenghao broke the silence. He bowed and said with a flattering smile, "Master Kang, I've collected some herbs recently. I don't know if they're good enough for you …"
In fact, Jiang Tian didn't want to pay attention to people like Zhou Zhenghao. He already wanted to leave. However, when he heard this, his heart was moved.
He was penniless now, and the herbs that he cultivated were all expensive. He couldn't get them at all.
"Let me see …" Jiang Tian nodded slightly.
"Good, good, good! I'll have someone send it over! "Zhou Zhenghao was overjoyed and quickly ordered his men.
"Master Kang, you're here. I didn't know in advance. Please forgive me for not being a good host!"
A moment later, Elder Sister Dong Dong leisurely walked in with a few young girls each holding a brocade box.
She had been in the scene for a long time. She had even entertained the mayor and the district head. When she saw Jiang Tian, she could maintain her composure.
However, her slightly trembling hands ruthlessly exposed her nervousness and fear at this time.
"Is this an old ginseng? I'm afraid it's a hundred years old! "
"Nine Tunes Sealwort? It's already in the shape of a dragon. It's like a dragon flying in the sky! "
"A human-shaped polygonum multiflorum. It's so big. I'm afraid it's worth at least a few million yuan!"
The brocade boxes were opened one by one. There were too many things for the eyes to take in. They exclaimed and stared in disbelief.
These medicinal herbs were extremely valuable. Not only were they expensive, but they were also extremely rare.
If anyone could get their hands on one, they would definitely treat it as a family heirloom and hide it. Who knew that Zhou Zhenghao would give it to Jiang Tian!
Although Jiang Tian's expression was calm, he was actually quite excited.
These herbs were quite old. They were enough for Jiang Tian to make a Foundation Strengthening Pill and become his resources to step into the Qi refining stage.
"Not bad."
Jiang Tian smiled faintly. "Since it's suitable for me, I'll take it all! I owe you a favor, and I'll definitely repay it! "
Zhou Zhenghao wiped the sweat off his forehead. He didn't waste his time these past few days. He had turned Lin Zhou upside down.
But when he heard Jiang Tian's last sentence, Zhou Zhenghao was so scared that his whole body trembled. He had been in the Jianghu for so long. How could he not know this principle?
Zhou Zhenghao immediately smiled and said, "Grandmaster Jiang, what are you talking about? You have to understand that this is my filial piety. To be able to work for Mr. Jiang is a blessing that I have accumulated over several lifetimes! Why would I want anything in return? Master Kang, why don't we go upstairs and have another meal and talk? "
"This kid is really light. No wonder he can build up such a big family business despite being born in the wilderness!"
Jiang Tian chuckled in his heart. He put all the herbs into a box and held it in his hand. He stood up slowly and said, "Okay, I have to go. If I go home too late, Xueqing will be worried!"
"Okay, goodbye, Master Kang. You must come visit more often when you're free! "Zhou Zhenghao hurriedly followed him like a loyal servant.
"You don't have to see me out!"
Jiang Tian waved his hand and said, "By the way, my classmate Liu Yating is having some financial difficulties. Lend her some money!"
"No problem! It will be interest-free. No, no, no, no. You can even give it to her for free! "Zhou Zhenghao was so excited that he was a little incoherent.
After Jiang Tian left for half a minute, everyone was stunned. They looked at each other and didn't say anything for a long time.
One sentence could decide Hou Tianlai's life and death.
Zhou Zhenghao worshipped him like a god and gave him those herbs worth at least tens of millions. Who was he exactly?
"I heard in school that Jiang Tian seems to be the son of a big family …" Zheng Li suddenly said faintly.
What kind of person was Zhou Zhenghao? He was on the same level as the District Mayor, but he was so respectful to Jiang Tian. Other than the fact that Jiang Tian was from one of those legendary aristocratic families, was there any other explanation?
Now that Jiang Tian was only twenty-five years old, he could make Zhou Zhenghao bow his head. If he was in charge of the family and could use the family's wealth, how terrifying would that be? Perhaps even the mayor and the secretary of the district committee would have to bow their heads in front of him.
She regretted that she had missed an opportunity, an opportunity that could have saved her twenty years of hard work.
Zheng Li was not the only one who thought of this. All the students present understood this point and were filled with regret and dejection.
If they could ride on Jiang Tian's coattails, they would be able to achieve great things in the future. Just a little from him would be enough to fill their stomachs.
Unfortunately, except for Liu Yating, everyone else looked down on Jiang Tian. They followed Hou Tianlai to make things difficult for Jiang Tian.
"Which one of you is Ms. Liu Yating? Please come with me to my office!"
At this moment, Zhou Zhenghao had more or less recovered a bit of the bearing of a superior, and he smiled warmly.
When they arrived at Zhou Zhenghao's office, Liu Yating briefly explained the situation.
Zhou Zhenghao immediately wrote a cheque and said, "Ms. Liu, you can take ten million yuan of interest-free loan. You can pay it back at any time. It's okay if you can't pay it back! "
Liu Yating was overjoyed that her urgent situation was solved so easily. She hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou. Thank you so much. I'll pay you back as soon as possible!"
"You're welcome, Ms. Liu. Since it's Master Kang's order, I'll do it. Ten million yuan is nothing! "Zhou Zhenghao smiled.
After Dong Dong served tea, Liu Yating took a few sips to calm down her excitement.
She couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, you're Jiang Tian's friend, right? How did you two meet?"
"Sigh, Ms. Liu, you've overestimated me. Master Kang is like a dragon in the sky. He's like an immortal. I don't deserve to be Master Kang's friend. I'll be satisfied if I can be his lackey! "
Zhou Zhenghao sounded like he was joking, but his serious face didn't look like he was joking at all.
Liu Yating was shocked.
What exactly did Jiang Tian do to make Zhou Zhenghao, this kind of hero, willing to be his lackey?
"Ms. Liu, you should have a good impression of Mr. Jiang. If you have time, please put in a good word for me!" Zhou Zhenghao's face was full of joy. He even tried to curry favor with her.
"Of course!"
Liu Yating nodded. She couldn't help but think of Jiang Tian's words, "I'll give you an opportunity." She couldn't wait any longer.
This prescription must be very magical. I have to go back and try it.
