As soon as he returned to the village, he had ideas about the mountain. If he could contract it and plant some fruit trees and raise a large flock of chicken without any feed, those chickens would grow up to be wild delicacies.
No sooner said than done, Xia Liu and Zhang Xiaoxue had already notified the incumbent village head, who was none other than Li Zhi.
Knowing this news, Xia Liu became more confident about contracting the mountain. Li Zhi had witnessed himself treating Zhang Qing's snakebite, and he absolutely trusted Xia Liu.
Most importantly, from the beginning, Li Zhi had been picking atractylodes. Last night, he was the one who proposed consolidating money for three days or even longer before dispensing it.
In the afternoon, when everyone came back for dinner, Xia Liu invited Li Zhi to dine at his home and mentioned contracting the mountain on the way.
As you might expect, Li Zhi had total trust in Xia Liu.
