Chapter One Hundred and Thirty


    After talking for a while, the medicinal effects fully prated their bodies.


    They felt even better, brimming with vigor.


    They had never felt so powerful before.


    "President Long, if you open a Medicinal Cuisine Pavilion, I reckon all the medicinal cuisine shops in the whole world will go out of business," an official said.


    The speaker had no particr intention, but the listener took the words to heart.


    Long Xiaoshan indeed had the idea of developing a Medicinal Cuisine Pavilion.


    But this matter couldn''t be rushed.


    He had plenty of recipes for the pavilion, yet it had to be run by truly loyal followers, as he himself didn''t have the time to prepare the medicinal cuisine.


    Next, they held the foundationying ceremony for the road in Longyang Vige.


    With the push from various parties,


    the tertiary road connecting Longyang Vige to the main thoroughfare of Niu Y County started construction at the fastest pace.


    After an introduction to the project, speeches by the leaders, and the ceremonial earth-tamping to the sound of music, the road construction in Longyang Vige officially began.


    One after another, massive steel machines began to operate.


    Following the road foundation ceremony,


    was the establishment meeting of Longyang Group Company.


    All the vigers of Longyang Vige gathered on the stony beach, sitting upright with their stools, filled with expectation as they looked at the festively decorated, balloonden farm.


    After Ye Feng, the city''s number onemittee member, delivered his speech,


    Long Xiaoshan walked onto the stage.


    For this asion, he had unusually dressed himself in a sharp suit, his tall and upright figure fitting perfectly.


    As he stepped onto the stage,


    the eyes of the young girls and married women below were riveted on him.


    Even sophisticated women like Shangguan Baihe and Shen Yuerong felt their breath quicken.


    His chiseled, resolute visage, bronzed skin, and perfect physique radiated a powerful masculine aura.


    Long Xiaoshan was naturally handsome.


    But usually, he didn''t take great care in dressing up, often looking like a typical farmer.


    A pearl covered in dust.


    Now, all dressed up, he was like Cindere in her ball gown, stunning and stirring the hearts of many.


    "Little Xiaoshan." Chun Tao bit her lips, her eyes filled with adoration and dependence as she looked at the man she loved.


    "You little rascal." Qin''s gaze became somewhat hazy as she watched the man on stage, whose every move exuded power, feeling her heartbeat inexplicably quicken.


    "That darn kid." Jin Lian, sitting among the crowd below, restlessly twisted her waist.


    ...


    Long Xiaoshan, tall and graceful, stood at the center of the makeshift presidential tform.


    His keen eyes swept over those below.


    The pairs of expectant eyes gave him a profound feeling because now, the vige folks had invested all theirnd into the Longyang Group.


    Therefore, he must do well.


    He must live up to the vigers'' expectations.


    "Elders and fellow vigers of Longyang Vige, good day," Long Xiaoshan''s voice was firm and strong as it rose. "Our Longyang Vige was once the poorest mountain vige in the entire Niu Y County. So many children could not afford schooling and couldn''t evenpletepulsory education. Many young and strong workers left their homes only to meet with idents, leaving behind orphans and widows. When our vige was mentioned within ten miles and eight viges, it was with a disdainful attitude—because we were considered poor and weak, to the extent that our vige was even called Widow Vige. But from today onward, all that will change.


    Today, our Longyang Group Company will officially be established.


    What products are we talking about? They are the agricultural products that we farmers are most familiar with—various types of vegetables, fruits, aquatic products, and livestock. As long as it can be bred, Longyang Group will be involved in it. Since all of you vigers have invested with yournd, everyone present is a shareholder of Longyang Group."


    The farmers below, upon hearing the term "shareholder," felt both novel and excited.


    They couldn''t stop whispering excitedly to each other.


    "Don''t underestimate these products. With my cultivation, you all can see, these products are far superior to themon agricultural products on the market, and they are of great value."


    "As long as everyone works together with one heart and does their best, in no more than a year, I promise everyone here that each household in Longyang Vige will be able to live in a vi, every family will have their own car, and elementary and secondary schools will be built in the vige. We will hire the best teachers. In the future, not only will the children of Longyang Vige have ess to education, but so will kids from ten miles and eight viges. They will rush here to study, and everyone who mentions Longyang Vige will give us a thumbs up, envious of our sess."
