After reaching a preliminary cooperation agreement, Shen Qiang chatted with the Director of the Investment Promotion Office, Deputy County Chief Zhang, and the Director of the County Finance Bureau. The atmosphere became much more pleasant, and as the sprightly Ye Guyun grew impatient and sneaked up, they began to take their leave.
Shen Qiang saw them out.
Afterwards, he cooperated with the police officers who hadn't left, completing a relatively simple record. The content was just about what Secretary Ma and the others had said when they got here. In this aspect, Shen Qiang had nothing to hide, nor was there any need to hide.
Just stick to the facts.
After finishing the record.
The officers left, taking with them Shen Qiang's Third Uncle, his third cousin, Ma Jiyong, Yuan Cun, and Secretary Ma.
As soon as they left, Aunt Xiu Lian, her eyes bright like light bulbs, gave Shen Qiang a thumbs up and said, "Really impressive, even the county chief came to your house. If my son could achieve what you have, it would really bring honor to our family."
Shen Qiang laughed because, to him, this was too simple. Because if he wanted to, in the Provincial City, he could really connect with many high officials.
But Shen Qiang is a low-key person who dislikes trouble.
Moreover, his ambitions aren't in politics or business.
After all, for ordinary people, rising in politics or becoming immensely wealthy might mean a perfect life.
But as a cultivator, Shen Qiang desires more to truly reach the realm of immortality spoken of in the Medical Saint Inheritance.
After all, immortality means infinite possibilities.
That's the essence.
At that moment, the Village Chief, who had just sent the officers away and returned with a bright face, clapped Shen Qiang on the shoulder excitedly, saying, "Well, Qiang, even the county has come to do business with you, your business is really no small thing. Do you know what the county chief said when he left? He praised me for doing well in Yingbei!"
Shen Qiang smiled, "Then congratulations to you."
The Village Chief laughed.
The captain of the District Security and Joint Defense Team also came and said with satisfaction, "Hahaha, Shen Qiang is really a high person, and still so calm. Hahaha, it wasn't a waste coming to your house today. When the county chief left, he even shook hands with me specifically, it's like a dream."
"For a small District Security and Joint Defense Team captain like me, and our Village Chief, if it weren't for your influence, would the county chief be this polite to us?"
The Village Chief laughed so hard that his back teeth showed, "Who is our Shen Qiang? I didn't even know before; he's actually Chairman Shen, an official bigger than a CEO in a company! Hahaha, who would have thought? Yingbei actually produced such a big shot. Hahaha, just this thing is enough for me to boast about for ten years."
The District Security and Joint Defense Team captain also laughed, "Hahaha, don't just boast for ten years, boast for twenty years if you want."
Seeing them laughing heartily, Shen Qiang laughed along.
At this time, Bai Jiao, who had long packed her things and was eager to go home, came over and said, "Shen Qiang, it's past ten o'clock. We should leave now."
Hearing this.
The smile on Shen Qiang's face vanished instantly, and not only that, looking at his mother standing quietly to the side, looking at him with relief, a feeling of reluctance rose in his heart.
"Mom, I have to go. There are things to handle in the Provincial City and with Bai Jiao and them. I'll come back to see you as soon as I have time."
"Okay, be sure to take care of yourself, don't overwork."
Hearing his mother say what he had meant to tell her, Shen Qiang felt a little amused and helpless.
At this moment, turning his head, seeing his father busy in the side room and not coming over, Shen Qiang couldn't help but walk over and said, "Dad, I have to go back now."
Shen Laoshi smiled, lit a cigarette for himself, took a puff, glanced at the Village Chief, the District Security and Joint Defense Team captain, and Aunt Xiu Lian who was chatting with Bai Jiao over there, then said, "I originally thought, when you were leaving, I'd have another big bowl with you, but drinking and driving isn't safe."
Shen Qiang smiled, momentarily speechless.
Sighing at the people over there, Shen Laoshi said, "When you were little, some things couldn't be said clearly to you. Now that you're grown, some things don't need to be said. Do well, spring ice is thin, human feelings are thinner, only being strong yourself is truly strong, and that's also the origin of your name."
Shen Qiang sighed and said, "Don't worry, I will become stronger because I know that only by being strong enough can I protect you, only by being strong enough can we have smooth sailing, only by being strong enough can we live happily."
"I knew it, you're the best." Shen Laoshi smiled, "Go ahead, I won't see you off. Come back for the festival at the end of the year, try not to mess around in the meantime, no need to keep rushing back. There's no need for you to worry about family matters."
Shen Qiang remained silent.
Compared to the succinct and straightforward Shen Laoshi, Shen Qiang's mother had much more to say.
"When you have time, bring Bai Jiao and them back."
"Don't overwork at your job, having enough money to spend is enough."
"I never care about how much you give me, as long as you're doing well."
"Have breakfast."
"Wear more clothes when it's cold, it's not shameful."
"Eat more meat, you're so tall, and you're a boy, it's fine to get a little chubby."
"Don't get into fights, sometimes suffering a loss can be a blessing."
"Keep an open mind, and come home when you're tired."
"Don't bully Bai Jiao and them."
"When you go to their home for the New Year, give them my regards."
"Your dad and I are in great health, you don't need to worry about us!"
"I packed you lots of snacks, they're with Ke Bizhu. I didn't dare let that girl Ye Guyun take them, afraid she'd eat them all."
"The socks, shirts, underwear, I've washed and packed them in the suitcase with Bai Jiao. When you need to change, ask her. See if she forgets."
Listening to his mother's nagging, Shen Qiang felt amused yet suddenly didn't find it as annoying as before.
Especially when the car drove away.
Watching his mother waving standing by the road, Shen Qiang suddenly felt a bit of a lump in his throat.
Because only those who have wandered outside know that these nagging and seemingly endless words, apart from mothers, no one else will say.
Those people only care about what you can do for them.
The convoy sped on.
The small county town quickly disappeared from view.
"I will become stronger, stronger!" Sitting in the car, Shen Qiang clenched his fists, looking at the rapidly disappearing trees and villages along the road, with a heart full of clarity.
"If I were still the penniless Shen Qiang from before, no one would come to see my parents! If I were still the Shen Qiang without any ability, the county chief definitely wouldn't visit. Although I can ignore them now, they still set their eyes on me."
"Because in this Yingbei village, I am now strong enough, formidable enough!"
"But in the medical world, in the cultivation world, looking at Huaxia, I'm still not strong enough!"
"Keep pushing! Work hard to let everyone see clearly, I, Shen Qiang, am definitely not a waste, but rather..."
"The Strongest!"
