"Mother, this is a new era."
Holding his mother's hand, Lin Huowang said with a smile, "If you saw Linjiagou now, you probably wouldn't recognize it."
After two days of travel, the convoy finally entered the territory of Baishan County.
But once you enter the county town, the atmosphere changes completely.
This place is nothing like the declining northeastern county towns of later generations. In fact, the entire Northeast region in this era was not even considered to be "declining."
The automotive industry brought by Lin Huowang, along with the integration of large-scale infrastructure projects and agriculture in Northeast China, immediately revitalized the once-declining Northeast.
Baishan County is no exception; in fact, it is a model county for reform and wealth creation among many counties and cities in Northeast China!
The billboards along the roadside are covered with slogans such as "Longpai Feilong, the freshest in the world" and "Welcome to Linjiagou, the capital of Chinese medicine".
The once dilapidated county town is now filled with high-rise buildings and wide streets, and is even more prosperous than many prefecture-level cities in the south!
When the convoy finally entered the dedicated highway leading to Linjiagou, the scene before them amazed everyone in the car.
This is no longer a village!
This is clearly a modern small city built in the mountains!
The original narrow dirt road has long been transformed into a two-way four-lane cement road.
Furthermore, the roadside is lined with ornamental trees, and the streetlights are all solar-powered.
All those low thatched houses and mud-brick houses from before are gone.
Instead, rows of neat, uniform two- or three-story villas with red roofs and white walls have sprung up.
What's even more astonishing is that there are cars parked in front of every household, and some even have two!
In the center of the village stands a magnificent industrial park.
That was the "Dragon Brand" gyrfalcon breeding and processing base, which later developed into a feed mill, a Chinese herbal medicine processing plant, and various mountain product deep processing plants.
But the most eye-catching thing is the huge archway at the entrance of the village.
Above it are five large, gilded characters: "The Number One Village Under Heaven"!
"My God...is this...is this still our home?"
Lin Xiaoxue was peering out the car window, her eyes wide with disbelief, and said, "Brother, you're not building up our hometown, you're turning it into a palace!"
Yes!
Linjiagou, known as "the number one village in the world," owes 90% of its success to Lin Huowang's leadership.
Whether it was raising grouse at the beginning or making feed and traditional Chinese medicine products later, it was all the direction pointed out by Lin Huowang, and the villagers, including Lin Shuisheng, responded enthusiastically and worked hard to get rich.
More importantly, all these sales channels must be transported and sold domestically and internationally through Lin Huowang's Longwang International Logistics.
Including Lin Huowang's Dragon Plaza, which is located all over the world, the mountain products from Linjiagou sold there are definitely a very unique sight.
However, the convoy had to stop as soon as it reached the village entrance.
Because the road ahead was completely blocked by people.
Those are the welcoming crowds!
The entire village, numbering several thousand, was filled with the deafening sounds of gongs and drums, the crackling of firecrackers, and the lively Yangko dance troupe.
Leading the group was the elderly Party Secretary Lin Shuisheng, whose hair was gray, and next to him was the new Party Secretary Zhao Daniu.
"Brother Awang! You're finally back!!"
As soon as Zhao Daniu saw Lin Huowang get out of the car, he rushed over and excitedly gave Lin Huowang a bear hug.
Zhao Daniu is something else these days!
He is a businessman with a net worth of over 100 million yuan. He manages all the logistics and transportation in Linjiagou and is directly connected to Lin Huowang's Longwang International Logistics Company. He has hundreds of brothers under his command and they are all well-known figures in Baishan County.
But when he's in front of Lin Huowang, he's still the same honest little follower he always was.
"Da Niu! You've really made something of yourself now! You should be called General Manager Zhao!"
Lin Huowang laughed and punched him in return.
"Brother Awang! How dare I call myself 'boss' in front of you?"
Zhao Daniu scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
Lin Shuisheng stepped forward, grasped Lin Huowang's hand tightly, and said, "Awang! Look, look at our village... It's all thanks to you! The people of Linjiagou can now walk out with their backs straight! Who doesn't envy us for being the 'Number One Village in the World'!"
"Uncle Shuisheng, everyone did all of this themselves."
Lin Huowang was filled with mixed emotions at this moment.
In my past life, this place was dirt poor, and bachelors were everywhere.
In this lifetime, this place has become a paradise that everyone yearns for, and a model of common prosperity after the reform and opening up.
Perhaps this is the meaning of his rebirth!
"Let's go home! Let's start the feast!"
With Lin Shuisheng's shout, the entire street was already filled with a feast.
Today can be described as the most lively and grand celebration in Linjiagou in recent years.
Slaughtering pigs and sheep, stewing dragon with mushrooms—that's all you can eat!
In the past, these kinds of meats were a rare treat for the villagers, who would only eat them once or twice a year.
But now, Linjiagou is so wealthy that it's not a big deal for every household to eat there every day.
Lin Huowang was surrounded by his fellow villagers and sat at the main table in the center.
Beside him sat his mother, and a large group of beautiful women including Liu Rumeng, Gong Xue, Qian Shujuan, Qian Shuzhen, Lü Ruirong, and Kobayashi Keiko, as well as a group of chattering children.
