Chapter 233
She has medical skills, and if possible, she would like to give warmth and hope to more people to the best of her ability.

Nancun, suburb of Beijing.
"Ms. Jin, this piece of land has an excellent location, a huge area, and a reasonable price. Would you like to consider it?" The agent praised this old, low-rise building to the skies.
Jin Chaochao shook her head. "This house is obviously an old building built 60 years ago. It has not been demolished and rebuilt yet. The problem is that there is a cemetery underneath. If anyone touches this place, the family will suffer a huge change."
The agent was a middle-aged man. Hearing this, he coughed and said awkwardly, "I didn't expect you to be an expert!"
Jin Chaochao took a look at the land. The location was indeed good, but the surrounding area was full of houses, leaving only this piece of land in ruins and overgrown weeds.
"I can buy it, but the price has to be half!"
The agent was stunned, "Are you really buying it?"
After knowing that this is a very dangerous place, she still wants to buy it. Who is this girl?
"Really?" Jin Chaochao said, "This place needs to be used after ten rituals are held to liberate at least thirty lonely souls. Of course, only I can do this, otherwise this piece of land cannot be moved for another hundred years."
The agent was so confused for a moment.
He pondered for a moment and told the truth: "I live nearby. I heard from the elders in my family that something did happen here decades ago, and the land later belonged to the village. Because of the incident, the old village chief didn't dare to trade it, so he kept it there. The new village chief took office recently and put the land up for sale. He doesn't believe in evil, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to negotiate a 50% price."
Jin Chaochao smiled slightly, "It's not easy to negotiate, so let him try. If he dares to dig a hoe on this land and can stick to his principles afterwards, it's not impossible for me to buy this land at the original price."
The agent pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.
Just as both parties were calculating their own decisions, a man in his thirties walked over with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.
He stared at Jin Chaochao and said with a fake smile: "Little girl, if you want to bargain, just bargain. How can you cut it in half right away? Let alone digging one hoe, I dare to dig ten hoes! Come on, bring a hoe!"
The newly appointed village chief has a slicked-back hair and powdered face, and looks like a scholar.
The little kid who was following him turned around and ran back, and soon came back with a hoe.
In front of Jin Chaochao, the village chief walked to the area with lush vegetation and dug with a hoe for more than ten times.
After digging, he spat into the pit.
Jin Chaochao stood nearby, frowning as he watched.
The village chief handed the hoe to the child beside him, then walked over to Jin Chaochao and smiled smugly: "Little girl, this is not the way to bargain!"
Jin Chaochao curled his lips, took out a yellow talisman and a business card from his pocket and said, "Brother, when you sleep at night, don't look at the window. If you encounter someone who wants to strangle you, remember to use this yellow talisman to deal with it. If you are really scared, call me."
Zhang Ruoming held the yellow talisman and the business card and laughed, "Little girl, you are not the one who slipped through the net of the nine-year compulsory education, are you?"
Jin Chaochao raised her eyes and smiled openly, "You are right, I really have never been to school."
Zhang Ruoming threw the yellow talisman and the business card away and said, "No wonder you are like that. If you have been educated for a few years, you wouldn't say such a thing. I see that you are still young, so you should learn less feudal superstitions."
Jin Chaochao smiled, her eyes deep, then turned around and left with Yan's mother.
The middleman picked up the business card and the yellow talisman from the ground and quickly stuffed them into Zhang Ruoming's hands. "Village Chief, take them. You may really need them."
Although he felt that the stories passed down by the older generation were not necessarily true, no one could tell whether they were true or false.
So he remained in awe.
What if it is true?
"It's terrible to be uneducated!" Zhang Ruoming sneered with disdain, turned around and walked back with a swagger.
But just as he took a few steps, a cool breeze blew from behind him, making him shudder.
It was a hot afternoon in the middle of summer.
Zhang Ruoming quickly spat three times at the empty space, and then consoled himself: "It must be a psychological effect! How can I, a university graduate, be fooled by a little girl?"
Jin Chaochao didn't find any other suitable place, so she went back to the Fu family first.
Bai Yexi is still outside and probably won’t be back for a while.
Night falls.
Zhang Ruoming was sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air. He lived in a three-story detached house that was beautifully decorated.
As the newly appointed village chief, he naturally had to generate income for the village, then repair roads and make improvements, striving to create a better living environment for everyone.
So after he took office, he immediately put the forbidden land in the village up for sale.
The price tag is 60 million!
What he didn't expect was that his first customer was Jin Chaochao. He didn't know where she heard this mysterious story, but she actually came up and wanted to bargain for half the price.
When he thought of what Jin Chaochao said, he felt disdainful.
"Honey, the child keeps crying and I don't know what's wrong. I'd better take him to the hospital!" Zhang Ruoming's wife came out of the house irritably, holding her two-year-old child.
The child is fine, has no fever and is not feeling unwell.
But he just wouldn't stop crying and no matter what I did to comfort him, it wouldn't stop.
"Then I'll go change my clothes and we'll go together." The clinic is just two streets away.
The woman refused. "I'll take him over. There's mung bean soup cooking on the stove. Just watch the fire."
"Okay!" Zhang Ruoming walked forward and wanted to hug his son, but his son not only cried but also turned his head away and refused to let him hug him.
Seeing this, his wife hurriedly took her son to the hospital.
As soon as they walked out of the yard, the child stopped crying, as if he was tired of crying, and lay in his mother's arms, sobbing weakly.
Zhang Ruoming came to the stove, looked at the bubbling mung bean soup, and turned the heat to minimum.
He returned to sit in the rocking chair in the yard.
He fell asleep within a minute of sitting there.
Just the next second, Zhang Ruoming woke up again.
He looked up into the house. The lights were on, but it was pitch dark outside.
He seemed to have something blocking his throat. He wanted to make a sound, but no sound came out.
Just when he was wondering, he saw a ragged woman with long hair floating in front of him from the door.
The woman had dry hair covered with maggots, her face was bloodless and her eyes were so dark that you couldn't even see the pupils.
"You spit in my face!"
The woman didn't open her mouth, but Zhang Ruoming could clearly feel that the sound came from her.
He was so scared that his scalp was numb and he kept telling himself that he was dreaming.
I'm dreaming!
Everything in dreams is fake.
He opened his mouth wide and roared with all his might.
"Ah!" Zhang Ruoming suddenly opened his eyes, jumped up from the rocking chair, and fell directly to the ground.
He was pale, panting, and sweating as he got up from the ground. He cursed fiercely, "Fuck, it's really a dream."
