"Grappling and fighting? We know that! Hongqi taught us when he visited relatives a couple of years ago!" Zhang Guangtian patted his chest and guaranteed.
The old village chief, standing to the side, watched as Zhang Cheng, with just a few words, dispelled the panic of the entire village and made clear arrangements for their future livelihoods. His cloudy old eyes were filled with shock and emotion.
He cleared his throat and shouted with all his might, "Did you all hear that! Er Gouzi has found a way out for everyone! You should not only remember his kindness, but also not let him down!"
"If anyone tries to cheat or swindle outside and ruins Er Gouzi's reputation, don't blame this old man for being ruthless!"
"Don't worry, village chief! We understand!"
"Whoever treats us with their whole heart, we'll treat them with our lives!"
The villagers' response resounded throughout the mountains!
"Alright!" The old village chief nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, saying, "The work has been arranged, everyone can go home! Let Er Gouzi rest well; his speedy recovery is our greatest blessing!"
After being reprimanded by the old village chief, the villagers, their spirits lifted and their eyes shining, dispersed in high spirits.
The old village chief walked up to Zhang Cheng and whispered, "Er Gouzi, there's still a lot of work to do in the village. I'll go take care of it first and come see you later."

One hundred thousand? Or two hundred thousand?
Human resources, once in surplus, become incredibly cheap.
In the past, it cost one yuan to hire a porter to go into the mountains. Soon, it was fifty cents or even less, and there were plenty of people vying to do it.
The city leaders must have thought of this.
How will they solve it?
Set up a factory!
We must build large factories! Large factories that can absorb a massive amount of manpower!
A meaningful smile slowly curved the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth.
In his past life, he was still struggling to make a living and was completely ignorant of these important matters.
And now...
This sweeping change was a crisis for ordinary people, but for him, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
A brand new era is beginning.
And he will be the sole protagonist of this era, standing at the crest of the wave.
Restaurants and nightclubs are just cash cows, a means of accumulating capital.
But they alone cannot support a true empire.
A sharp glint flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes.
"We need to set up a factory."
"If we're going to do it, let's do a factory that everyone will remember!"
