Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 821 - 824: Settling in Jiuzhou City District

Finally, unable to resist Zhao Qian’s persistence, when it was time to disembark from the plane,

Xia Liu left with Zhao Qian by bus.

Zhao Qian didn’t have much luggage.

A backpack was all he carried. After getting off, fearing Xia Liu might feel embarrassed, he even helped with the luggage.

The reason Zhao Qian was so warm toward Xia Liu.

Was mainly due to three points.

One is Xia Liu’s retired special forces identity.

Another is his residence in the remote areas of Liuhai City.

Zhao Qian, having grown up in the rural remote mountains of Binlai City, could relate to Xia Liu’s hardships.

Though now he owns an apartment in Binlai City.

Meeting Xia Liu, who is just starting in Harbor City, he was willing to extend his enthusiasm.

Throughout the journey, Xia Liu was intermittently grateful, regardless of Zhao Qian’s reasons for helping him.

In the absence of any reward, Zhao Qian did it, so Xia Liu knew he should accept it and remember this kindness.

Zhao Qian rented a place in a remote area of Harbor City.

Jiuzhou City, a name that sounds grand, but compared to other prosperous areas, it was still an impoverished region.

Perhaps in another decade, when Harbor City’s higher-ups see the potential of Jiuzhou City District, they might allocate funds for its development.

Because of its remote location and economic backwardness, Jiuzhou City District is where many laborers reside during their downtime.

This area could be described in ways that convey an image of people cramming together.

Because rental prices are cheap, many low-level workers in Harbor City rent here.

Laborers from other thriving areas also choose to live in this place.

Fortunately, the transportation is convenient; otherwise, this area would be ruined.

Walking for about ten minutes, Zhao Qian led Xia Liu to an old high-rise building.

The decoration on the exterior had faded terribly.

Above the second floor, one could see a dense network of cables, tangled and complex.

But looking at the windows, it was evident that the building was fully occupied.

"Brother Xia, please don’t mind. The residential buildings in this area are all like this unless they are within Harbor City boundaries, otherwise, the living conditions aren’t that great."

Upon entering the old elevator, Zhao Qian put down his backpack and said with a heavy sigh.

"It’s alright, I can adapt."

Seeing the earnest smile on Xia Liu’s face, Zhao Qian knew he wasn’t joking.

As a retired special forces soldier of Huaxia, his endurance was unimaginable.

Zhao Qian’s apartment was on the eighth floor, and the room number was quite meaningful: 808.

He had rented here for over three years, transforming from an anxious illegal resident into what he considered a somewhat reputable salesman.

Of course, that reputation was self-assigned.

In Jiuzhou City District, if you act cowardly, many tattooed thugs would look for trouble.

Most of them were locals, and if you weren’t careful, you could easily become their target.

These people would use their local advantage to intimidate you, and if you were like Xiao Bai, being bullied meant staying silent.

Someone like Zhao Qian, who had fought hard in Harbor City for some time, had the experience to deal with those thugs.

The door to 808 opened to reveal a clean and tidy room.

One bedroom, one living room, one kitchen, and one bathroom.

In Harbor City, such a living condition was actually quite decent.

The cramped living room had a sofa, and if they added the corner table, there would be no walkway left.

The small wall-mounted LCD TV, once turned on, began broadcasting Harbor City news.

"Brother Xia, tidy up and make yourself at home in the room, I’ll watch the news. A famous tycoon once said, to succeed, you must pay close attention to Harbor City news, in every aspect."

When the Harbor City noon news was on, Zhao Qian’s eyes were glued to the TV screen, fearing he’d miss any opportunity for success.

Seeing this, Xia Liu shook his head with a wry smile.

Truly a hardworking young man.

Zhao Qian was only twenty-nine, and his appearance wasn’t particularly mature.

Still without a girlfriend, he said he plan to save more money, pay off a few years of the mortgage, and then return to his hometown to build a future.

Xia Liu didn’t intend to stay in the room.

But he went over to take a look.

The room was even smaller than the living room.

It could only fit a bed and a small canvas wardrobe.

He also checked out the kitchen and bathroom.

Finally, he concluded that the living conditions for workers in Harbor City were stifling.

However, behind the prosperity of such cities, there were bound to be unsavory elements.

It was the same anywhere, and Xia Liu wasn’t concerned about it.

His current thought was how to infiltrate Guo’s Pharmaceutical and succeed in attracting Guo Man’s attention, and how to earn her trust to make him her right-hand man.

Xia Liu didn’t have much time. If he didn’t succeed in two months, he would investigate the Guo Family his own way.

Besides figuring out how to gain Guo Man’s trust, Xia Liu had another major problem.

He didn’t know where the Guo Family was located. freewēbnoveℓ.com

The Guo Family was considered to rival the heritage families of Super Warriors.

To this day, no Huaxia Warrior family or sect had ever truly entered the Guo Family.

This added to the difficulty of the mission.

"Brother Xia, have you tidied up?"

After the news ended, Zhao Qian, lost in thought, came back to his senses, seeing Xia Liu standing dumbly by the window and asked.

"Brother Zhao, I won’t stay in the room. I’ll just sleep on the sofa tonight."

Xia Liu replied courteously.

This was Zhao Qian’s home, and he, as a guest brought over, couldn’t immediately become the host.

"How could that work? You mentioned you left the army because of an injury..."

"No no, my injury healed months ago, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to be out and about."

Seeing he couldn’t change Xia Liu’s determination, Zhao Qian had to agree: "Alright, alright, then later I’ll go downstairs and get you some daily necessities. From now on, consider this as another little home."

"Thank you so much, Brother Zhao. Once I find a job, I’ll definitely treat you to a meal, and if I make it big in the future, I’ll buy you a big villa."

"Haha, what are you talking about, brother? If you succeed, I’d be over the moon. Not to mention a big villa, just give me a job and I’d be content."

Zhao Qian knew Xia Liu was joking, and he was also joking along.

In Harbor City, friends exchanged all sorts of wild jokes to lighten the mood, otherwise one would truly spend many years in oppression.

Xia Liu helped Zhao Qian tidy the room, then they went out together.

Zhao Qian informed Xia Liu about the surroundings, what to watch out for, and how to seek or self-rescue in times of trouble.

In short, Zhao Qian passed on all the experiences he could think of to Xia Liu.

In one day, Xia Liu almost comprehended everything.

Surviving in Harbor City certainly required attention to a multitude of aspects.

Xia Liu didn’t worry about so much.

Although it was a mission, he had his principles.

Late at night, lying on the two-meter-old sofa, Xia Liu took out his phone, and several messages flashed before his eyes...
