Chapter 37: People from the County
There was full of confidence in Jiang Yu's tone. Although she didn't show anything on her face, Shen Hui felt that Jiang Yu looked down on her and didn't care about her at all, as someone who could predict the future.
Shen Hui was so angry that she clenched her fingers and cursed her in her heart as a fake foreigner, but she was still greedy for the huge amount of money in Jiang Yu's pocket.
With so much money, it would be better to invest it in her to open a store or in Li Changjun's business instead of giving it to a few useless people in the Zhou family and a mean old woman.
She and Li Changjun became big bosses, and Li Changjun became the richest man in Luzhou ahead of schedule. This was also good for Jiang Yu's reputation, as Jiang Yu was able to gain a firm foothold in the country.
Shen Hui was thinking about Jiang Yu's money. She opened her mouth to say something, but Zhou Xiao glanced at her coldly.
The man had sharp eyebrows and a gaze that was chillingly cold. Just one glance was enough to give her a full sense of oppression.
Shen Hui felt a chill on the soles of her feet and couldn't help but take a step back.
Thinking about how Zhou Xiao had been lying in bed for so long in her previous life, she really didn't want to support this burdensome uncle and wanted to kill him with pesticides, but was discovered by Zhou Xiao.
The look in Zhou Xiao's eyes when he looked at her was also so cold and terrifying that every time he asked her to go in and deliver a meal, she would have nightmares when she came back.
Shen Hui's scalp tingled, and for a moment she felt like she had returned to her previous life. She didn't even dare to look at Zhou Xiao, and she lowered her head and ran out of the Zhou family in a panic with the basket in her hand.
The heroine's reaction was very strange. Jiang Yu gently placed the fan under her chin and looked at Zhou Xiao in confusion.
"Shen Hui seems to be very afraid of you."
When mentioning other women in front of his partner, Zhou Xiao was very conscious of explaining.
"I have barely spoken to her. We have only met a few times in the same village. I am not familiar with her at all."
Listening to Zhou Xiao's serious explanation, a smile spread across Jiang Yu's face.
"Well, I believe you are not familiar with each other."
It seems that the heroine's inexplicable fear of Zhou Xiao must have come from her previous life.
But when the heroine left the Zhou family before her rebirth, Zhou Xiao's leg had not yet been healed, and without her as a variable, his movements were still restricted to the room.
Why would Shen Hui, a healthy person, be afraid of Zhou Xiao? Did she do something? Have you ever been scared by Zhou Xiao?
Jiang Yu thought biasedly that Zhou Xiao was her boyfriend, so she would naturally stand on his side.
"Huaizi picked some wild strawberries from the mountains this morning. Do you want to eat some?" Zhou Xiao didn't want Jiang Yu to pay too much attention to Shen Hui.
He had no impression of the name Shen Hui before, but the name appeared in his vision from time to time recently.
The words that were just spoken were very strange, and some of them did not sound like something that would be spoken by someone who had never left the village. He had a feeling that such a person would bring a lot of trouble.
Jiang Yu had never eaten wild strawberries before, so she nodded.
After Jiang Yu ate some of the wild strawberries which tasted pretty good.
On the road near the village entrance, a black car gradually approached.
In the car, Mayor Gu anxiously asked the county magistrate sitting in the back.
"County Mayor, is Comrade Jiang really willing to invest and build a factory here?"
When Mayor Gu received the news that a wealthy man from overseas was going to build a factory in Xiaohe Village, his head was buzzing and he couldn't believe it at all.
The county couldn't attract investment from these foreign investors, and it ended up in a remote village. Mayor Gu couldn't even imagine it.
When Zheng Shu heard this, he raised his glasses.
"Comrade Jiang has asked his assistant to go to the county to get materials for building the factory. How could it be fake?"
He was also happy. Foreign capital was being used to build a factory, but even the city hadn't reached an agreement, but their county had it first. How could he not be happy?
But thinking about how the assistant comrade was almost robbed by a group of scoundrels in the county yesterday, Zheng Shu's face darkened again.
Those who bring discredit to their county and damage the reputation of their county at a critical moment will be severely punished.
If they continue to affect foreign-funded factory construction, I'm afraid the city will have to ask about it.
Zheng Shu had a headache after receiving a call from a comrade in the city, who said that a compatriot from overseas wanted to build a factory here.
He was worried that the chances of this being accomplished were slim, after all, he knew the situation in the county, not to mention the village.
They are inferior to the city in every aspect. Even the city can’t retain people, so how can they retain people?
But after just one or two days of trying to find out about Comrade Jiang Yu, before we had time to look for her, we didn't expect that a big incident of some scoundrels robbing foreign capital would happen.
Zheng Shu now only hopes that since the overseas compatriot has asked his assistant to get the materials and has decided to build a factory here, their apology will be in place and the cooperation can continue.
Otherwise, the county might take major action and he would be called to a meeting.
They were all local people, and Mayor Gu had heard some rumors. He had no confidence that he could convince the big boss.
At this point, I felt the same as the leader and could only hope that their apology would satisfy the big boss.
As the car drove into the village, it attracted the attention of the aunties sitting under the trees at the entrance of the village.
"Hey, there's another car coming to the village."
"Ever since Comrade Jiang came to our village, I have seen more cars than in my entire life." An aunt exclaimed in amazement.
They thought they had seen the world, so when they saw the car they did not rush towards it, but just looked at it and chatted.
"Just wait and see. I think this man is here to see Comrade Jiang."
"Guess what? Apart from Comrade Jiang, who else knows someone who drives a car?"
A few aunts were chatting when they unexpectedly saw the car stop.
The driver, not knowing where the Zhou family was going, rolled down the window and asked politely.
"Auntie, how do I get to Comrade Zhou Xiao's house?"
The aunts winked at each other and pointed the way with a smile.
"Drive forward to the grain drying ground in the middle of the village. The most imposing brick house is the Zhou family's."
The driver thanked the aunt and drove forward.
The sharp-eyed aunt caught a glimpse of the people sitting in the car and quickly stood up, stopping her needlework to watch the fun.
"My goodness, the person sitting in the car, wearing a Zhongshan suit with a pen in his chest pocket, looks so energetic, I wonder where he came from!"
When the others heard this, their hands trembled. Seeing that she had put away her needlework and was running towards Zhou's house, they looked at each other, put their things in the basket, and hurried to follow.
For so many years, no leaders have come to the village. It’s going to be so lively!
When they passed by the fields, they shouted to the Zhou family who were busy working.
"Guixiang, stop busying yourself. Your family has a leader! He is most likely here to see Comrade Jiang."
This voice made Zhang Guixiang stunned for a moment. Thinking of Jiang Yu's statement about setting up a factory, she knew that this matter was on the way.
She was delighted to be a worker, and immediately threw away her hoe and ran home, not even caring about her husband and little son.
The Shen family couldn't bear to see the Zhou family's beaming faces, so they spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"What kind of leader would come to the village to find a fake foreign devil?"
"If it was two years ago, those with overseas connections wouldn't dare to show up. You still want the leader to come in person. Do you want the red armband?!"
Those people in the village who still remember that time also think this is impossible.
But it’s such a hot day and people have been working in the fields for most of the day, so it’s so refreshing to see some fun.
So no one cared about the Shen family and went to the Zhou family to see if the person who came was the leader.
