This loan shark was truly infuriated by Rong Ziyin.
The private lending business, frankly speaking, requires connections to operate. He himself had only managed to build such a large operation thanks to a well-connected young master. Over the years, he’d become quite respectable. He’d encountered tough guys before, let alone a poor student like Rong Ziyin, but he’d repeatedly suffered losses at Rong Ziyin’s hands. Setting the trap was
difficult from the start, and when it came time to close the net, Rong Ziyin almost escaped, leaving him with a lot of trouble.
Now, he could only threaten him with text messages, which was already incredibly frustrating, but he never expected Rong Ziyin to dare to provoke and harass him.
The more he thought about it, the more resentful he became. The loan shark picked up his phone, ready to dial.
He owed 200,000, and the first payment was only 60, split into two installments—who did he think he was?!
A man next to him patted him on the shoulder. “Alright, calm down. Who do you want to kill?”
“That college student! I curse his ancestors for eighteen generations!”
“Calm down,” the loan shark’s friend quickly pulled him back. “This guy has nothing to lose. He almost got you arrested and convicted in court before. You still want to cause trouble?”
“I’m the damn creditor! He has to call me daddy!”
“Come on! He almost overturned the case in court just because he couldn’t find out where the funds went. If that young master hadn’t found you a good lawyer, you wouldn’t have been able to fight back if he sued you for extortion. You’d be in jail now.”
The friend’s words were indeed harsh, but they were true. The loan shark calmed down considerably after hearing them, and put down the bottle he was holding.
Seeing this, the friend quickly pulled the loan shark back to his seat and poured him a drink to calm him down.
This friend was also in the same line of work, so he understood even better that Rong Ziyin was a tough nut to crack. Let alone this loan shark, even the young master above him wouldn’t fare well after things went wrong.
It was just a coincidence that this young master and Rong Ziyin were roommates. Their grades were worlds apart, so this young master looked down on Rong Ziyin even more because he was a top student and favored by the professors, always trying to find something for him to do.
For the first three years of university, he tried to get the other roommates to give Rong Ziyin a hard time, but Rong Ziyin wouldn’t cooperate. Later, after joining the professor’s research group, he practically slept in the lab, making it impossible for Rong Ziyin to even find him.
Thus, this young master held a grudge until the end of his junior year, and now he disliked Rong Ziyin even more.
To make matters worse, there was the issue of guaranteed admission.
The veterinary department only had one guaranteed admission spot this year, and Rong Ziyin, who was already first in the department and had been doing research with the professor since his sophomore year, should have easily secured the spot if things continued as they were.
The rich kid wasn’t necessarily obsessed with the spot; after all, his family was wealthy, and he wasn’t even sure he’d become a veterinarian after graduation. But when he heard Rong Ziyin was getting a guaranteed admission, he became determined to compete.
Even if he couldn’t beat Rong Ziyin academically, he wanted to smear Rong Ziyin’s character and completely disqualify him. So, he devised a scheme to frame Rong Ziyin, saddled with a 200,000 yuan debt.
But who could have imagined that Rong Ziyin, despite being framed, would manage to carve out a way out? In the end, although the case wasn’t overturned, the rich kid didn’t fare any better, suffering a significant loss at Rong Ziyin’s hands.
Originally, after Rong Ziyin’s failure to secure a spot, the rich kid only needed to rank in the top five of his department in his junior year final exams to guarantee a guaranteed admission.
However, no one knows how Rong Ziyin managed it, but he somehow managed to get the rich kid caught cheating on the exam, leading to further investigation and the discovery of his past involvement in cheating on the CET-4 and CET-6 exams, almost resulting in his expulsion from school.
I heard that after returning home, he was beaten and grounded by his elders. Therefore, this rich kid and Rong Ziyin were now sworn enemies. The rich kid was still fixated on the 200,000 yuan debt, determined to kill Rong Ziyin.
But even if he wanted to kill him, the loan shark truly dared not call Rong Ziyin again. Remembering how Rong Ziyin could always find the slightest clue during face-to-face confrontations, he really didn’t dare say anything unnecessary, including insults.
Holding his phone, the loan shark sat down and took a sip of beer. The cool liquid finally dispelled his thoughts of causing trouble for Rong Ziyin.
However, the thought of those two 30-yuan transfers still made him feel incredibly humiliated.
Meanwhile, Rong Ziyin, after arranging all the petri dishes, washed his hands, changed his clothes, and prepared to go to sleep.
Seeing his relaxed demeanor, the system couldn’t help but sigh again, “When will this debt ever be paid off!”
Rong Ziyin smiled, “Don’t worry, it might be over soon.”
He habitually checked his gold coin value; he had another 4,700. The vast majority of that came from the veterinarian who had cheated him and the loan sharks.
He was only 300 gold coins short of 5,000. His luck was always bad; he couldn’t do a five-pull, so he might as well do a single pull. Besides, 300 gold coins wasn’t much; it would be great if he could make it.
Rong Ziyin thought for a moment and decided that in the long run, he couldn’t always rely on the same person. So, he finally dialed the duty phone number of the veterinary station in the neighboring village.
“Hello?” Wang Dazhuang, busy with a group of chickens, ducks, and geese waiting to be inspected, took the call. The background noise was deafening; it was clear that Wang Dazhuang was busy with random checks and working very hard.
Rong Ziyin held the phone in silence for a while, then finally said to him, “Get some rest.” Then he hung up.
Wang Dazhuang: ???
Instantly, Rong Ziyin gained 1000 anger points, enough for a five-pull.
Rong Ziyin happily clicked on the five-pull option and even took out a basket, clearly intending to collect salted duck eggs (a type of rare item).
The system watched everything indifferently, not expecting Rong Ziyin to draw anything.
But unexpectedly, the next second, the previously only gray-glowing wheel suddenly lit up. After drawing four salted duck eggs, a huge “SSR” was finally printed in the center of the wheel!
At the same time, a large door suddenly appeared in front of Rong Ziyin. Its ancient texture was particularly unique, but in the center of the door was a pair of winking eyes, with a microphone stuck to its mouth.
No matter the angle, it didn’t look very proper.
System: Holy crap, what is this thing?
Rong Ziyin clicked on it and immediately fell silent.
SSR Skill: [Thunderclap, This Heaven-Reaching Cultivation]
It’s all a flat instruction manual, why do you have a voice?
A high-energy rap song practically popped into Rong Ziyin’s head in an instant, leaving the system speechless for a long time.
However, upon checking the skill description, it turned out to be surprisingly useful. It essentially increased Rong Ziyin’s veterinary knowledge and granted him a very useful ability: not only improving his diagnostic skills but also significantly accelerating the recovery speed of all creatures he treated.
But how fast?
This vague description made Rong Ziyin uncomfortable. Just then, there was a loud knocking at the door.
“Dr. Rong, Dr. Rong, are you home?”
“Who is it?” Rong Ziyin opened the door to find a boy covered in dirt standing outside. Upon seeing Rong Ziyin, the boy quickly grabbed him and tried to run outside.
“Dr. Rong, help! Something’s happened at my house!” The young boy spoke fluently, quickly explaining the situation.
His family was a large-scale pig farmer in the village, with one particularly robust male pig used for breeding. Nowadays, pigs are artificially inseminated. So, despite having about twenty pigs, just two boars were enough to impregnate the other sows.
Everything was fine at first, but tonight this boar went into heat, not only escaping during artificial insemination but also injuring someone.
“Anyway, when I came out, my dad was already lying down and couldn’t move. The neighbors helped tie up the boar, but it was still causing trouble and couldn’t be restrained.”
“Dr. Rong, please take a look!”
The young boy was clearly terrified, pulling Rong Ziyin along as they ran home.
Rong Ziyin stumbled from the pull, not even having time to change her clothes, but at least she remembered to bring her medical kit.
When they arrived, good heavens! A large crowd had gathered, and a tractor was parked nearby, seemingly to take the man to the county town.
“Dad, Mom, I’ve called Dr. Rong!” The young boy pulled Rong Ziyin through the crowd, and his shout instantly silenced the chaotic scene.
[Awkwardness level +300]
Rong Ziyin glanced over and immediately understood.
The man they were carrying into the tractor was the boy’s father. Blood was gushing from his abdomen, and his left leg was in an awkward position, seemingly immobile.
The boy paused for a moment before realizing what had happened. His parents had initially asked him to call the village clinic doctor, but the boy, being stubborn, had only heard the word “doctor” and had directly sought out Rong Ziyin, a veterinarian.
Seeing his father bleeding profusely and with what appeared to be a broken leg, taking him to the county town by tractor would likely be fatal.
Therefore, Rong Ziyin decided to step in and provide first aid.
The cut on his lower abdomen looked large, but not deep; cleaning and stopping the bleeding would suffice. His leg looked much worse. Rong Ziyin examined it briefly and surprisingly found no break; it was likely just a fracture. He only did some simple immobilization, and after confirming it could withstand the bumps, he told them to hurry to the county town.
“Hey! Don’t say it, it really doesn’t hurt that much anymore! Our young Dr. Rong is amazing, no wonder he’s a top student.” The man’s previously pale face had improved considerably, and he quickly thanked Rong Ziyin. He also gave Rong Ziyin a whopping 1000 gratitude points.
He was indeed an honest man.
“Hurry to town. Drive carefully.” Rong Ziyin saw the man off and then, carrying his medicine kit, prepared to return home.
Passing by the pigsty, the bound boar in heat was still grunting inside, with a line of comments above its head: “Let me go wild, I want girls.”
System: Tui! Pervert.
Rong Ziyin: It’s okay, it’ll probably be castrated tomorrow.
Holy crap! So casual? The system was immediately alarmed, but Rong Ziyin explained to him slowly and methodically.
Breeding male pigs isn’t easy. To maintain their health, they need constant exercise, at least two hours a day, and their diet must be planned to keep them constantly motivated to ejaculate. All in all, it’s no less difficult than caring for a sow during her postpartum period.
Therefore, large-scale pig farmers generally have requirements regarding the temperament of their male pigs. Boars that cause harm like this are generally not kept. Right now, the male owner is sick and needs to go to the hospital, but his injuries aren’t serious, and he’ll likely be back by tomorrow morning. Even if he’s hospitalized, he won’t stay for long. His wife and children are at home, so after the man sees the doctor, he’ll definitely discuss it with the neighbors and have them bring Rong Ziyin over tomorrow to quickly sterilize the boar to prevent it from acting aggressively again.
“So, you mean you cut off that thing?” The system vaguely felt a chill in its lower body.
Rong Ziyin was very curious: “Does your system also have genders?”
The system was speechless, feeling deeply hurt, and decided to unilaterally break off contact with Rong Ziyin for half an hour. However, if Rong Ziyin was willing to coax him, it could end the cold war earlier.
However, for a near-straight man, this kind of situation with a charming wife throwing a tantrum was completely incomprehensible. Therefore, after the half-hour breakup ended, the system still hadn’t received any reconciliation from Rong Ziyin, and felt increasingly like a fool.
As for Rong Ziyin himself, after taking a shower, he lay peacefully in bed preparing to sleep.
Although he had gone out for two hours late at night, the gains were considerable.
Not only did he help people, but he also gained over 3,000 gratitude points from the entire pig-farming family. And these gratitude points were increasing by tens or hundreds every now and then.
Indeed, the whole family were good people. Unlike that loan shark, who was petty and narrow-minded.
The moment Rong Ziyin had this thought, the system notified him: [Anger value from loan sharks: 200].
So the loan shark was still angry?
Rong Ziyin sat and thought for a moment, then decided to send the loan shark a message.
“Anger hurts the liver, staying up late makes you bald, go to bed early, I’ll definitely pay you back.”
After sending it, Rong Ziyin felt something was missing, so he sent another message: “Brother, I didn’t realize you were such a sentimental person.”
After sending it, he turned off his phone and closed his eyes to sleep.
Five minutes later, the system looked at the surge of three thousand gold coins and suddenly had a strange thought: Could Rong Ziyin be planning to anger the loan shark to death?
Although it didn’t meet the mission requirements, it was indeed a good alternative method. After all, Rong Ziyin’s loan shark was originally a trap.
In the latter half of the night, Rong Ziyin slept very soundly. But the hospital and the loan shark were both having a very difficult time.
The situation at the county hospital was rather strange.
The large-scale farmer, whose leg had been broken and he was completely immobile, surprisingly felt as if his leg wasn’t injured at all after Rong Ziyin immobilized it and provided emergency treatment.
When he arrived at the county hospital, he was even able to hop in on one leg.
The doctors at the county hospital were speechless after their examination.
X-rays revealed that the farmer’s leg was indeed just a fracture. The fracture only required medication and rest. As for the rest… Rong Ziyin had handled everything well, and the doctor didn’t need to do anything more.
Finally, the doctor casually advised, “Just go to the doctor in your village for dressing changes. Don’t come to the county again; the leg is easily aggravated by the bumpy ride.”
After the doctor finished speaking, he noticed that the farmer and his wife, along with the neighbor who brought them, all looked somewhat embarrassed.
