Sure enough, on the third day after the incident.
That is, June 26th, the day of Amo and her classmates' graduation ceremony.
Early in the morning--
Then Director Cheng arrived with his men, picked up Ah Chen and Ah Mo, and took them to a place that was both sacred and mysterious.
This place--
It is a place that countless people yearn for, yet can never enter in their lifetime.
Because it is the location of the heart within the heart.
And ever since we passed through the gate, there have been layers of checkpoints and inspections along the way.
Even Director Cheng, who went to pick up Ah Chen and Ah Mo, was no exception.
"Ah Chen, be careful what you say later. You can't make any jokes at all," Ah Mo whispered.
She was nervous herself.
Because this place is so special.
A comprehensive level of vigilance is no joke.
Soon, after crossing the lake on the side, we arrived at a standalone old building.
Waiting at the door were plainclothes officers and the middle-aged man who had gone to find Ah Chen with Director Cheng that day.
"Brother Mu, welcome, welcome!"
It was at this moment that Ah Chen learned that the middle-aged man's surname was Jing.
As for their status, it was different from that of the provincial governor, after all, they were people carrying gold leaves on their shoulders.
Forty years old, one star!
General!
That's incredible.
Just as Ah Chen was thinking about these things, he unexpectedly saw the provincial secretary here.
He paused for a moment, then said a few simple words before entering the ancient building.
but--
The provincial scholar was deeply shocked, because the old man inside had actually named the future Miao king.
What an honor this is!
This time, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Miao King will likely be in for a world of trouble.
Inside the ancient building.
As soon as Ah Chen and Ah Mo came in, a little boy of about six or seven years old darted out from the side.
The little boy ran straight towards Ah Chen.
He ran while shouting, "Big brother—big brother, how's your injury healing?"
This little boy, so clueless, made a strange gesture as soon as he got in front of Ah Chen.
"See, brother? I also pee standing up, and I've never shed a single tear."
“Look at my body, here, and here, it’s all bruised, but I just won’t cry.”
"Brother, I want to learn from you too. I haven't forgotten your words. I want to be a man of steel."
This little boy, though small in stature, speaks with a strong and clear voice.
Because when Ah Chen crawled under the tanker truck to rescue him the day before yesterday, Ah Chen yelled at him and cursed whenever he cried:
"We all pee standing up, what are you crying for? You're a real man, you bleed and sweat but don't shed tears."
The little boy relayed this sentence to his parents word for word when he was taken to the hospital for a checkup.
At that moment, his mother was right beside him, smiling as she looked at Ah Chen, and said softly:
"Young man, we are deeply grateful! You talk to my dad first, and my wife and I will talk to you later."
Just as the conventionally dressed, beautiful woman finished speaking, an old man stepped out from the side.
Upon the old man's appearance, both Director Cheng and Achen, the provincial secretary, bowed slightly.
But Ah Chen was dumbfounded.
It was him!
Old Master Jing?
Oh my god--
This is...
No wonder, no wonder that guy from their province became so powerful more than a decade later, it turns out it was this old man behind it all.
But when the old man appeared, although he sized up Ah Chen, he didn't mention how Ah Chen, the richest man, had saved his only grandson from the brink of death.
Instead--
"The richest man in my Great Xia is actually a young man in his early twenties!"
"Hello, sir."
Ah Chen bowed slightly. Although he knew the old man's name, the old man hadn't registered yet, so he couldn't act recklessly.
"When the youth are strong, the nation is strong. Xiao Mu, come this way!"
The name "Xiao Mu" seems to represent a lot.
really--
The old man spent more than three hours chatting with Ah Chen and Ah Mo, taking up so much of his precious time.
This greatly shocked Deputy Director Cheng and the Provincial Party Secretary, who were waiting outside.
Even for a provincial-level official, the time allotted is at most half an hour.
Unexpectedly--
"Old Cheng, it's been almost four hours now, this is terrible!" The provincial secretary couldn't hide the shock on his face.
Old Cheng was the most shocked person.
Because he knew all too well what that meant.
And it was at this time—
"Director Cheng, the old man wants to see you two." The old man's chief secretary came out.
When Director Cheng and his team entered, they learned what the old man and Mu Achen had discussed—
And when Mu Achen analyzed the prospects for the next thirty years, I finally understood why the conversation had gone on for so long!
But how could this future Miao king, at such a young age, have such a broad perspective!
Because in addition to economic development, he also analyzed many other things.
Gradually--
The future Miao King and the old man were now talking about everything.
Clearly, he was highly valued and favored by the old man.
We invited Ah Chen and Ah Mo to stay for lunch.
At the dinner table, they stopped talking about work and started talking about family matters.
The little boy's mother expressed her gratitude to Ah Chen, and they exchanged contact information.
It was at this moment that Ah Chen realized that this eloquent woman was actually a powerful figure in the core department.
The final decision-making power for Ah Chen's hydropower station project was actually in the hands of someone else.
This time, it's all set!
Not only that--
After the meal, as Ah Chen and Ah Mo left this heart of the land...
In addition to the two documents and an order that the old man gave him, Director Cheng also gave him two license plate numbers.
"Prince Mu, take these two numbers. Call me when you have time, and I'll send someone to register them for you."
