Rushing for Time

"It's not enough…" Looking at the bonus points, Wang Yao sighed.

After tilling the fields, he prepared to plant another batch of seeds.

Closer to evening, just as he was preparing to leave Nanshan hill, he received a phone call from Li Maoshuang. The herbs that he ordered had been purchased but needed a while more before they were delivered. Some of the herbs could arrive earlier, within three days. The rest would only come within a week.

After hanging up, he received another call, this time for Zhou Xiong. Through the phone, Zhou Xiong explained his uncle's situation.

"His channels are shriveling up?"

Wang Yao knew immediately that the situation was severe. He would have to rush over to Cangzhou as soon as he could.

"I'll get there as soon as I can," Wang Yao said.

"I'll make the arrangements. When can you go? I'll book the flight tickets."

"No need. I'll get the tickets myself."
