Seeing Xiaohai, Chengxue realized she had been tricked.

Xiaohai, the despicable guy, not only brought his friend, Meng Jiagui, but also a little dog, and most outrageously, a turtle! Although Xiaohai said it was a very precious forest turtle, a turtle is still a turtle! Chengxue had a unique trait: she was never afraid of rats or cockroaches, but she was most afraid of turtles!

Chengxue originally wanted to let them take the minibus, but Xiaohai grinned and said, "Lawyer Cheng, we have signed a power of attorney, and we also had a verbal agreement yesterday. You agreed to drive me to Yuechang, and you didn't say I couldn't bring a turtle. Verbal agreements are legally binding, right?"

Rogue, this little rogue! Chengxue's teeth itched with anger. Although she could refute Xiaohai with a hundred professional terms, Xiaohai took advantage of her dodging the turtle and pushed Meng Jiagui, who was holding the turtle, into the car. Xiaoqi, naturally, was already in the car.

"Okay, we can turn on the air conditioning now," Xiaoqi thought...

Xiaohai also climbed into the passenger seat: "Lawyer Cheng, let's go, don't waste time."

Chengxue angrily got into the car and nervously glanced at the turtle: "It won't bite anything in my car, right?"

"Only mad dogs bite things, how could a turtle?" Xiaohai answered seriously.

Xiaoqi's nose was about to be twisted with anger. "Hey, lawyer, can you write a complaint for me? This is the second time Xiaohai has insulted me with the term 'mad dog'..."

The not-so-big "Haima" car, carrying three people, a dog, and a turtle, entered Yuechang.

The journey wasn't long, but Chengxue found that Xiaohai wasn't as despicable as she had imagined. Although he was a bit of a rogue, he kept telling jokes on the way, gradually helping her forget her fear of the turtle.

More importantly, the turtle was always very well-behaved.

Xiaohai looked like a little rogue, but after spending more time with him, Chengxue quickly realized he was just a mischievous, sunny big boy...

When they entered the farm, Zhou Weiwu, who was already anxious, was waiting impatiently. Lao Yan had called several times.

Seeing Xiaohai finally appear, Zhou Weiwu sighed in relief, but when he heard that the beautiful woman with him was a lawyer, he felt a bit awkward: "It's just a transfer contract, why did you bring a lawyer?"

"I don't trust you, Manager Zhou," Xiaohai said bluntly.

Indeed, in Zhou Weiwu's office, looking at the transfer contract he had prepared, Chengxue immediately pointed out several traps. Priority repurchase rights, the right to unconditionally reclaim the farm's operating rights under certain conditions... Zhou Weiwu, with years of business experience, had set up these traps very cleverly, making it hard for outsiders to see through them. If Xiaohai hadn't prepared in advance and hired a lawyer, he might have been cheated by Zhou Weiw.

Chengxue took out her prepared transfer contract and explained it to Zhou Weiwu clause by clause.

Originally, Zhou Weiwu was already furious that his plan had been exposed by this female lawyer, but what could he do now? If he didn't pay back the money, Lao Yan would be ready with a minibus and his brothers, and Zhou Weiwu would be in trouble.

Reluctantly, he signed his name on the contract.

When Xiaohai also signed his name, Chengxue said, "This contract is in triplicate, one for each of you, and one retained by the 'Zhengyi' Law Firm as evidence in case of future disputes. Now, the farm transfer is complete, Xiaohai, you can transfer the money."

Xiaohai took out his phone and completed the transfer via mobile banking.

Zhou Weiwu checked his bank account and found the money had arrived, which slightly relieved him. At least he could give Lao Yan an account.

He put on a smile, "Congratulations, Manager Xiaohai, this farm is now yours. Oh, by the way, I saw the Wei brothers buying a lot of vegetables and alcohol yesterday. Are you planning to celebrate?"

"Yes," Xiaohai replied casually.

The smell of food wafted in, and Xiaohai looked at Zhou Weiwu, surprised, "Manager Zhou, the transfer is complete, why aren't you leaving?"

"Ah?" Zhou Weiwu was stunned. He thought that since Xiaohai had prepared food and drinks, he would at least invite him to stay for a meal. He had lost a lot in the farm transfer, so eating a meal with Xiaohai wouldn't be a loss.

But who would have thought that Xiaohai would show no mercy at all!

"You win, I'll leave!" Zhou Weiwu angrily left his former office, cursing in his heart, "Enjoy it, enjoy it, when you encounter snakes and weasels on the farm, you'll cry!"

Seeing Zhou Weiw's Passat leave the farm, Xiaohai dialed a phone number, "Hello, Tax Bureau? I want to report something. A man named Zhou Weiwu has completed the transfer of a farm near Yuechang. I checked, and it seems he should pay land use tax and business tax based on the transfer amount. Yes, he hasn't paid. Me? I'm Xiaohai, a righteous citizen."

Chengxue chuckled, "Xiaohai, you're so bad."

"Right, you can't be polite to people like that," Xiaohai explained what Zhou Weiwu had done.

Chengxue nodded slightly, "Now that you mention it, I remember reading about this online. It seems he got what he deserved. Xiaohai, I didn't realize you were so righteous."

"Of course, of course, I'm the righteous citizen Xiaohai," Xiaohai boasted proudly.

"Xiaohai, let's eat," Wei Lixia and Wei Dongzhi came in with the dishes.

"Ah, you eat, I have to go," Chengxue stood up.

Xiaohai laughed, "Come on, Lawyer Cheng, you were drooling at all that food, right? Let's eat together."

If Xiaohai had invited her properly, Chengxue would have sat down, but his playful and unserious attitude made her angry, "Thanks, I'm not hungry."

"Right, right, it's my fault, I apologize," Xiaohai also stood up, "Great Lawyer Cheng, I sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, and with all my sincerity, invite you to have dinner. Please do me the honor of joining us. Your presence is my greatest pleasure."

Chengxue couldn't help but laugh, covering her mouth. With Meng Jiagui and the Wei brothers also urging her, she finally sat down.

Wei Lixia brought a box of beer, placing a bottle in front of each person. Chengxue, who had to drive, naturally couldn't drink.

Xiaohai introduced Meng Jiagui to the Wei brothers, telling them that the three of them would be responsible for managing the farm. Seeing Meng Jiagui and the Wei brothers clink their beer bottles, Xiaohai took out a stack of money, "Big Wei, Second Wei, Zhou Weiwu owes you two months' salary. I have an agreement with him to pay it for him. One thousand yuan a month is too little, but I'm not rich either. Here's six thousand yuan, one thousand five hundred yuan a month. Take it."

The Wei brothers were taken aback. Wei Lixia hurriedly said, "No, Xiaohai, Zhou Weiwu promised us one thousand yuan a month. How can we let you pay?"

"Take it, don't be polite," Xiaohai insisted, pushing the money over, "I said I'm not rich. Buying this farm almost bankrupted me. Including you, Mu Tou, we'll temporarily pay one thousand five hundred yuan a month. Don't complain. When we make money in the future, I promise I won't forget my brothers."

"Brother, you don't need to talk about salary with me. When you get rich, just give me a few," Meng Jiagui said.

Chengxue couldn't help but look at Xiaohai a few more times. She had discovered another of his strengths: he was loyal!

Although Xiaohai had taken over Zhou Weiwu's debt, he didn't have to pay extra, but he still did.

Xiaohai then took out ten thousand yuan and asked Meng Jiagui and the Wei brothers to buy an air conditioner, some furniture, and other necessities. The living conditions here were too harsh.

This time, Meng Jiagui and the Wei brothers didn't refuse. When they took the money, they had already made a vow. Although Xiaohai was young, he was a good person. Meeting a good boss, what more could they say? They would work their hardest for him, regardless of the money.

"Xiaohai, what do you plan to do here?" Wei Lixia asked tentatively.

"Breeding," Xiaohai answered without hesitation, "Rabbits, pheasants, all kinds of things that are in demand on the market."

Wei Lixia frowned. Xiaohai was good in every way, but he was probably a layman in breeding. "Xiaohai, this isn't easy. Not to mention other things, our fence isn't good enough. The first step is to build a wall, and there will be many more expenses after that. Also, the three of us aren't enough."

To be honest, Xiaohai was indeed clueless about breeding, but he had a huge advantage: he could control animals!

As long as he was happy, he could find a large pack of wolves to help him guard the farm. Would any rabbits or pheasants dare to run away? Hmm, would it be too much to have a pack of wolves here? It might even bring the police.

"I'll handle these things. You just help me manage the farm," Xiaohai said confidently.

"Right, brother, we need to name our farm," Meng Jiagui remembered this very important issue.

Finished, Xiaoqi, who was enjoying a bone, moaned. Let Xiaohai name it? Xiaohai Farm?

A divine dog is a divine dog. Sure enough, Xiaohai blurted out, "Xiaohai Farm, isn't that a good name?"

Xiaoqi almost spat out a mouthful of dog blood. Boss, can you be a bit more creative with names? Even if you can't, you don't have to always use 'Xiao' in names. There are too many 'Xiao' names.

Well, the problem is, Xiaohai's naming skills are just that bad.
