Not only that, but cement surfaces were also laid in the deep valleys of Zhegu Mountain, and a ring-shaped castle was built around the mountain. This shows that when an organization is truly determined to do something, especially when it has a large number of members, the speed can be quite rapid.
Now, no one doubted the authenticity of the software development base anymore. Investors from major cities flocked to it.
Because many road construction workers were recruited from the local area during the road construction, the people of Zhegutun made a lot of money; this time, when building houses and opening companies, many companies are still directly recruiting people from the local area...
Thus, the poverty and backwardness of Zhegutun had improved considerably within that year.
Li Fangqi actually invested in three software development companies in one go, that's quite a big move!
Chu Nian discovered that these three software development companies would become very famous large companies more than a decade later, but they were still in the early stages and would have to wait several more years to see profits.
However, Li Fangqi knows what kind of software will be popular in the future and should provide them with some guidance, so its development may be faster than in Li Fangqi's first life.
When the base was built, people throughout the Zhegushan area cheered, because they had already benefited greatly from road construction and base building. With the base completed and software companies moving in, they would definitely recruit more people from the local area.
These days, everyone's thinking about how to get a job at these companies, not how to make money to get married.
The original owner, Ling Nian, was right. As long as the economic situation here is improved, the atmosphere of Zhegu Village will soon change.
Because Li Fangqi invested in three companies, the Li family enjoyed a period of great success when these companies were recruiting. Many people in the village were introduced to jobs by members of the Li family.
Although these people can only do jobs like security guards or cleaners, it's still much better than farming for a year and not getting a good harvest.
Because many people from other places came, the housing problem needed to be solved, so all the land in Zhegu Village was requisitioned to build houses. Both the Li family and the Ling family received a lot of money and houses.
However, building takes time. Although the Ling family received several houses due to demolition and land acquisition, they had nowhere to live right now. They thought of Chu Nian's house in town and brought their family to the town.
Ling's father had been to this courtyard once before when he was handling Chu Nian's application for day school enrollment, so he knew the way.
Unexpectedly, the courtyard, which was very dilapidated last time they came, became a fortress this time, with everyone looking up at the courtyard wall, which was several meters high and equipped with an electric fence.
Ling Da asked innocently, "Dad, are you sure this is my sister's house in town?"
Ling's father nodded, but the doubt on his face showed that he himself was a little unsure.
Ling's mother said, "You must have come to the wrong place!"
Ling Er: "How about we go to Niannian's school first?"
Ling's father: "Last time, Niannian said that if she needed anything, she should come here to find her."
Ling Er: "Then you've come to the wrong place. Besides, we haven't found her here, so going to the school to look for her is perfectly normal!"
Ling's father remained silent. He didn't want to talk about how, after just a few days apart, the girl had changed so much that even he, as her father, felt uneasy. He didn't know how she had become so imposing, like a mountain pressing down on him whenever he stood next to her.
So, Chu Nian told him last time that if he needed anything, he should come here to find her, and it was best not to go to the school. Now he really didn't dare to bring his whole family to the school to find her.
Just then, a small head peeked out from a courtyard a few meters away. It was a seven or eight-year-old child, looking curiously in their direction.
Upon seeing this, Ling Er quickly waved to the child and asked, "Little boy, is there a girl living in this courtyard?"
"Yes... she's a very pretty older sister," the child said timidly.
Ling's father said happily, "Then it must be right. I knew it. I specifically remembered the way last time, so it's impossible for me to have gone the wrong way."
Ling Er then asked the child, "Do you know how to get in?"
They arrived around three or four in the afternoon. Elementary school students had already finished school, but high school students were definitely still in class.
That's why Ling Er said he was going to the school to find Chu Nian. He now thinks his dad is crazy; coming to the house at this hour, how could he possibly find his sister!
The child said, "My mom said that very, very powerful people live in this courtyard, and only equally powerful people can go in."
Ling's father nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I don't know what's wrong with Niannian, she's become so fierce, even I, her father, am afraid of her."
Ling's mother said with a hint of helplessness, "From what this child is saying, the 'amazing' he's talking about doesn't seem to be the same 'amazing' you're referring to!"
Ling's father roared, "Why isn't it?"
Ling's mother shut her mouth, not wanting to argue with him.
Ling Dadao: "Dad, Mom, I think we should wait here at the gate of the yard for a while and recite it!"
Ling Er said with some dissatisfaction, "High schools have evening self-study sessions. We didn't even have lunch in order to get there. If we keep waiting, we won't be able to have dinner either."
Ling Da: "Do you have any good ideas?"
Ling Er: "Why don't we just go to the school and find her? We can get the key from her, put our things in, and then go eat."
Ling Da turned to his father and asked, "Dad, what do you think?"
Ling's father remembered Chu Nian's instructions from last time: if anything happened, come here to find her. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's... let's wait for her here!"
Ling Er complained, "It's been a whole day, and all we ate was two cornbreads by the roadside right after dawn..."
“Go by yourself, I’m not going,” Ling’s father roared.
Ling Er: "Fine, I'll go!" He threw the things on the ground. "You guys wait here and keep an eye on the things so they don't get lost."
Seeing that he was really about to leave after putting down his things, Ling's father was worried that if Ling Er really went looking for her, what would happen if Chu Nian came back to settle scores with him, her father? So he shouted, "Do you still remember how your sister beat up your Uncle Liu Quan last time?"
Ling Er: "I'm her brother, how could she hit me? Besides, I just went to ask for a key, why would she hit me?"
"Who are you people? What are you doing loitering around here?" Suddenly, two tall and handsome men jumped out of a building a few dozen meters away. One of them, with a dark face, questioned the Ling family members.
Ling Er was closer and probably had never heard such a cold and stern rebuke before, so he quickly darted behind Ling's father.
Ling's mother glared at him and smiled at the two men, saying, "We're here to find our daughter. She lives in this courtyard..." She pointed to the high wall behind her.
"Your daughter?" The two men exchanged a glance, and the one with a dark expression asked again, "What's her name?"
Ling's mother replied, "Her name is Ling Nian, and her nickname is Niannian!"
