Chen Fan looked at the River God, who was still hunched over and smiling obsequiously.

"There's no need to worry, River Lord. I've summoned you here mainly for two matters!"

Upon hearing this, the River God bowed and scraped his reply.

"Young Master, please speak. Not just two, but two hundred, two thousand would be fine!"

The River God lowered his head, only thinking of placating Chen Fan.

Then he would find his backer and properly punish the unruly villagers of Zhao Family Village.

He might as well destroy that detestable Zhao Dagou while he was at it.

By then, wouldn't the surrounding ten miles and eight villages be his for the taking?

"Heh heh, River Lord, there's no need to be nervous. My Zhao Family Village has always convinced people with reason.

Two matters means two matters. First, the Clear Water River will no longer restrict the establishment of water conservancy facilities from now on!"

Chen Fan extended a finger, stating his first request.

In this world, if one wanted to dig ditches and build new water conservancy projects, it wasn't something that could be done just by having money and people.

Not only did one need the consent of the local villagers, but also the cooperation of the River God and local deities.

Otherwise, nothing could be accomplished.

However, the local deity of Zhao Family Village was said to be an elder of Zhao Family Village, making them easy to persuade.

Only this River God, who was volatile and easily angered, was difficult to deal with.

Originally, Chen Fan had intended to use the name of the Zhang Clan of Qinghe to pressure the River God into reaching an agreement.

Who would have thought Zhang Tianshou would be so capable, directly suppressing the River God?

"No problem, This Minor God will definitely cooperate!"

Receiving an affirmative reply, Chen Fan nodded and extended his second finger, saying, "Second, I need to hire your subordinate spirits to dredge the river and excavate the silt.

We will settle this matter with Incense and Fire, and sign a contract!"

As Chen Fan finished speaking, a bolt of heavenly lightning struck the sky.

BOOM!

Zhang Tianshou looked up in shock, her Heavenly Eye opening.

She saw golden light converging in the sky, auspicious colors flowing like a thousand streams, and heavenly flowers scattering.

However, Chen Fan and the villagers of Zhao Family Village, with their mortal eyes, could not see these celestial phenomena.

But they could feel their bodies suddenly become much lighter.

"Sister, Sis... you, you, you..."

Zhang Tianxian excitedly pointed at the celestial phenomenon in the sky, his breathing rapid, and his speech becoming stammered.

Zhang Tianshou patted Zhang Tianxian's hand, her beautiful eyes lingering on Chen Fan.

"Mister, is this your plan?"

Chapter Seventeen: Contract Achieved, Merit Distributed!

"Contract? What contract!"

The River God was suddenly stunned, panic flashing in his eyes. He thought to himself:

Did he sense my murderous intent and want to establish a contract to prevent me from acting in secret?

But without the illumination of human dragon energy or the witness of a powerful being, how could he believe I would abide by the contract?

Seeing the River God's eyes darting around, Zhang Tianshou frowned slightly.

Chen Fan, however, directly drew a contract from his sleeve and continued, "One wisp of Incense and Fire for a piece of silt from the White Stone River. How much you can get depends on your ability, River Lord!

It's all here in black and white. River Lord can take a look first!"

As Chen Fan produced the contract he had prepared long ago, a golden light projected down from the sky.

Merit auspicious clouds piled up, and a golden wheel of merit rose above Chen Fan's head.

A layer of golden merit light emanated from Chen Fan.

"Grea, grea... he, he, he..."

Zhang Tianxian had also opened his Heavenly Eye at this moment and was staring at Chen Fan, dumbfounded.

At this moment, Zhang Tianxian felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning, falling into a state of chaos and confusion.

In Zhang Tianxian's eyes, Chen Fan was a good-looking, witty, and humorous young man.

That's right, in Zhang Tianxian's eyes, Chen Fan had always been a petty person.

At that tea stall, he had seen through everything, yet he still watched with relish as if it were entertainment.

The person watching the show was satisfied, but Zhang Tianxian and her sisters, who were being watched as entertainment, naturally felt uncomfortable.

If it weren't for Zhang Tianshou's insistence, Zhang Tianxian wouldn't have spared Chen Fan a second glance.

But this petty person in her eyes suddenly transformed.

He became a great sage, adorned with merit and blessed with profound fortune.

This made Zhang Tianxian feel as if cracks were appearing in her worldview.

"Tianshou, what's wrong with Fifth Young Lady?"

Chen Fan looked at Zhang Tianxian in surprise. He naturally knew that Zhang Tianxian disliked him.

No help for it, Chen Fan's first impression on her wasn't good.

Therefore, Chen Fan now called Zhang Tianshou by her name, but he always referred to Zhang Tianxian as Fifth Young Lady.

In contrast, Zhang Tianyu seemed much more carefree.

Chen Fan had clearly made a fool of her earlier.

But afterward, Zhang Tianyu had completely forgotten about it, only remaining fixated on Chen Fan's pot.

"Thank you for your concern, Mister. Fifth Sister is just a little nervous seeing the River God,"

Zhang Tianshou replied perfunctorily. Chen Fan just rolled his eyes.

That answer was too insincere.

When Chen Fan was reciting the list of dishes, Zhang Tianxian had wished she could eat the River God.

It was a stretch to think she would be scared.

However, since Zhang Tianshou said she was fine, Chen Fan naturally wouldn't pry further.

At this moment, the River God had taken the contract and was looking it over meticulously.

He then handed it to the turtle spirit beside him and whispered, "Prime Minister, please take a look and see what this says!"

The River God thought his voice was very low, but the area was vast, and his voice was loud.

Not only Zhang Tianshou and her sisters, but even Chen Fan could hear him.

He felt speechless; immortals from the Heavenly Court couldn't read.

This reminded Chen Fan of a joke from the past!

The Jade Emperor's son couldn't count!

Moreover, you're just a mere River God of a stretch of clear water.

You even have a Turtle Prime Minister; do you think you're one of the Four Dragon Kings!

"Divine Lord, it says..."

After the turtle spirit finished speaking, the River God was dumbfounded.

Chen Fan had caused such a commotion and summoned him out.

It was all for such a trivial matter!

Enraged, the River God gritted his teeth and fiercely stamped his handprint on the contract.

Chen Fan then took the contract again and placed it before the Village Chief.

Thus, the Village Chief held his head high and chest out, took the brush, and shot the River God a contemptuous glance.

Then, on the contract, he crookedly signed his name.

Chen Fan: "..."
