446 This is Strength


    He was already being polite by not cursing at Chen Fang right from the start.


    Never in his wildest dreams would Chen Fang have thought that he would be punished so thoroughly.


    With the help of the six shareholders, Chu Ning’s strength increased by a huge level.


    The gap between Chen Fang and Chu Ning was too wide.


    Chu Ning didn’t even need to put pressure on him to make him shut up.


    That was the power of capital.


    The six shareholders did not want to see anything happen to Chu Ning and her Soaring Clouds Group at this critical juncture.


    “Chu Ning, what happened at the school gate after school?” Her deskmate, Xiaomi, couldn’t hold back her curiosity.


    “Yeah, Chu Ning. I heard that Ye Ting and Yu Yan didn’t have their lunch and kept following you.”


    “Yes, there was a group of students who followed you, but we werete. You were all returning.”


    “Is the school holding some kind of event again?” The surrounding deskmates also asked.


    “You guys are really gossipy…” Chu Ning put down the book in her hand and rubbed her temples helplessly.


    “Go ask Mr. Lin. He knows, but I can’t exin it,” Chu Ning added.


    “No, we don’t dare to. Isn’t that just asking for trouble?” Xiaomi shook her head.


    “Then don’t ask anymore. There are some things that children should not know. Otherwise, ghosts will knock on their doors at night.” Chu Ning nced at Xiaomi.


    She knew that Xiaomi was afraid of ghosts.


    “How hateful. It’s fine if you don’t want to say it, but you’re still trying to scare me,” Xiaomi huffed.


    “Chu Ning, I heard that you have apany outside of school?” another person asked.


    “It’s fake. Why would I go to school if I have apany?” Chu Ning felt that it was not the right time yet. There were too many problems currently, and she still had to solve one problem after another.


    Hence, she simply denied it. After all, these students had no way of verifying it.


    “Alright.” Hearing Chu Ning’s straightforward answer, the student’s face revealed a regretful expression.


    After school in the evening, Chu Ning headed straight to Qinghe Vige.


    It had been a few days since she had gone there to check on the situation.


    Qinghe Vige was Chu Ning’s production base. Chu Ning was very ambitious. She was not satisfied with merely building a tform for merchants. She wanted to be a supplier.


    Even before she transmigrated, the person who developed the shopping software became the richest person in the world by virtue of that. However, Chu Ning was not satisfied with that.


    There was a huge profit margin. With such an advantage, Chu Ning would not miss this opportunity.


    “Vige Chief Wen, I’m back.” Chu Ning arrived at Wen An’s office with practiced ease. She was carrying tonics and fruits with her.


    “President Chu, you don’t have to be so courteous.” Wen An was busy as usual. When he saw Chu Ning, he was overjoyed, but his expression turned solemn when he saw the gifts in Chu Ning’s hands.


    “Vige Chief Wen, this isn’t considered a bribe, is it? it’s only a few hundred yuan. Look at you, you’ve been working so hard. You have to take care of your health, right?” Chu Ning said with a smile.


    Chu Ning respected and admired people of high moral character like Wen An.


    “It’s alright. It’s nothing. It’s just my job as long as the residents of Qinghe Vige can lead a good life,” Wen An replied with a smile.


    Qinghe Vige had temporarily regained its peace for the past few days. Although it was very extravagant to use tap water to irrigate crops, it was still eptable, given the current ie level of Qinghe Vige.


    However, the residents of Qinghe Vige were not convinced. They felt that Houtu Vige and some other upstream viges had joined forces to deliberately target them.


    “That’s good. There haven’t been any conflicts recently, right?” Chu Ning continued.


    “No, it’s just that everyone’s unconvinced.” Wen An felt a little helpless. Although he looked calm on the surface, he definitely had some opinions.


    “Also, the town mayor told me in a meeting two days ago that I might only be able to stay in Qinghe Vige for two years at most before I have to take up a position in another ce.” Wen An’s expression was sorrowful as he spoke. Although he had only stayed in Qinghe Vige for less than three years, he was very reluctant to leave.


    “That’s a good thing, Vige Chief Wen. There’s nothing to be sad about. The government thinks highly of your abilities. Indeed, you shouldn’t just be a vige chief. There’s a higher and more important position waiting for you. You’re worth it. After all, you serve the people wholeheartedly,” Chu Ning spoke sincerely as she looked at Wen An.


    She was quite happy for Wen An. This meant that his ability had been recognized.
