Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 273 Husband, I've embarrassed you!
Li Xingying is full of anticipation for this trip to her hometown.

After receiving the invitation from the Publicity Department of Qingjiang County Party Committee, she agreed without hesitation to come back to support the cultural and tourism development of her hometown.

It feels a bit like returning home in glory.

She also hopes that her parents will be proud of her promising daughter.

During the time since I came back, I have basically responded to all requests from the county.

Shooting promotional videos, attending seminars... basically no free time.

I have devoted my energy and ability to helping my hometown.

She knew how difficult it was for a poor county in the western mountainous area to develop.

Do something you are good at to the best of your ability.

I never thought that at the last moment, I would be put on the fire and roasted.

Cai Chenglin, a county Brahmin, has a strong influence in the local area, and Li Xingying doesn't want to have any conflicts with him.

Thinking about leaving Qingjiang County as soon as possible.

But when I got home, the village party secretary had already arrived.

The products sent by Cai Chenglin’s company are also placed at the door.

There is no way to hide now.

If she left, there would definitely be someone else who would bother her parents.

On the surface it is communication and work, but in reality it is undoubtedly harassment.

"Daughter, it's okay. Just go on your way. Your parents at home can handle it. At worst, they'll just stay away from you." Dad Li comforted his daughter, not wanting to embarrass her.

The parents thought about their daughter.

The daughter also cares about her parents.

Coming back by myself makes my parents proud, not causes them trouble.

"Dad, Mom, let me think about it carefully!" Li Xingying said as he sat down.

An idea flashed through my mind, why not help not post the video I took?

But he immediately rejected this idea.

First of all, she did this for her hometown, to let more people know about her hometown and promote the beauty of her hometown, not for a certain leader or a certain person.

Secondly, if she took this matter to negotiate with Cai Chenglin and relevant departments, others would feel that she was threatening them, and the result would be even worse.

I decided to post the promotional video I shot, one thing at a time.

After dinner, Li Xingying contacted some of her friends in the internet celebrity circle.

Ask them if they have any plans for live streaming to sell goods in the near future?

If so, recommend Cai Chenglin to them, or ask them to help sell some agricultural products from Qingjiang County.

These friends who specialize in e-commerce have their own product selection team and customer service, and are more professional.

If they think Cai Chenglin's products are good, they will naturally communicate about how to cooperate.

Li Xingying felt that Cai Chenglin and the county should be able to accept this.

I took the initiative to contact Director Luo from the Culture and Tourism Bureau and introduced my friend who was engaged in e-commerce to them.

Director Luo was as polite as ever, calling Teacher Li and expressing his gratitude.

The main goal is to avoid offending each other.

After the communication, Li Xingying breathed a sigh of relief and went to take a bath.

Wu Keqing suddenly jumped into the barrel, "What's wrong? I don't feel right today!"

"It's just a small thing." Li Xingying didn't tell Wu Keqing.

She guessed that Wu Keqing would tell her brother in Beicheng after hearing about it.

Li Xingying knew Jiangbei City well. Once he knew about this, he would definitely go to Qingjiang County immediately and find a way to help her solve the problem.

My husband has been very busy lately, and I can’t cause him any more trouble.

"Don't tell me that I'm going to video call Brother Beicheng?" Wu Keqing threatened with a smile.

"Let your brother watch two women taking a bath?" Li Xingying said with a smile.

"Hahahaha!" Wu Keqing saw her smile and didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he said with concern, "As Beicheng's most beloved sister, I have the responsibility to take good care of you for her. If I find anything wrong with you, I will definitely tell him."

Li Xingying smiled, scooped up water with both hands and poured it on Wu Keqing's face, "Just take care of yourself, little brat.

The sisters don't need you to worry about them!"

Wu Keqing smiled mischievously and rushed directly to Li Xingying: "Experience my brother's pleasure, you are too white..."

As he spoke, he stroked Li Xingying roughly with his hands.

Li Xingying laughed loudly, “Your brother is not as rude as you.

I'm going to fight back!"

"Come on, take a picture of whoever you want!"

Two women were playing in the bathtub.

This incident made Li Xingying feel much more relaxed. She stopped thinking about those bad things and slept soundly with her good sister after taking a bath.

The next day, Li Xingying did not receive any call or notification from the county. He guessed that the e-commerce friends he recommended yesterday had already communicated with Cai Chenglin.

When she packed her things and prepared to call Wu Keqing to leave.

A Land Rover Range Rover arrived at the door.

Following behind was a Passat and a Crown.

Mr. and Mrs. Li stared at the people getting off the car in a daze.

"Old Li, are you eating? Is your daughter home?"

The person who asked him the question was the mayor.

A few years ago, when we were doing poverty alleviation work, he came to my house and visited me. At that time, he was still the deputy mayor. Apart from that, the two sides had no interaction.

Mr. Li was still very polite. He brought out a stool and asked the leader to sit down.

He also asked his wife to notify Li Xingying.

Li Xingying had just packed her suitcase when her mother ran into the house and said, "My daughter, someone is coming from town, and they're with a boss."

Li Xingying frowned and walked to the balcony to take a look. The boss his mother was talking about was Cai Chenglin.

Is this to block her at home?

Li Xingying was very angry. She put down her luggage and went downstairs.

"Teacher Li, nice to see you again. Thank you for recommending the e-commerce anchor to me!"

Cai Chenglin greeted Li Xingying with a smile and handed a cigarette to Li's father.

Dad Li saw something fishy from his daughter's expression and guessed that the man in front of him was Cai Chenglin, the entrepreneur from the county who had made things difficult for his daughter.

I didn't take the cigarette he offered me.

Cai Chenglin smiled awkwardly.

"Dad, just mind your own business!" Li Xingying said.

Dad Li nodded and called his wife to leave together.

"Teacher Li!" Cai Chenglin called again, "I admire scholars like you the most. I salute you."

The mayor sitting next to him introduced Li Xingying: "Mr. Cai is the county's business representative and a member of the People's Congress. He..."

"The village party secretary has already spoken, mayor." Li Xingying interrupted him.

Reiterating Cai Chenglin's identity is nothing more than reminding himself to see the situation clearly.

Mr. Cai is very powerful in the county.

"Mr. Cai, did you fail to reach an agreement with the friend I recommended to you yesterday?" Li Xingying asked directly.

Cai Chenglin smiled and looked at the mayor.

The mayor understood and stood up to check on Li's father.

Cai Chenglin and Li Xingying were left to chat privately.

"Teacher Li, thank you so much, really!" Cai Chenglin clasped his hands together and said politely, then looked embarrassed. "You know, the profit margins on agricultural products like ours are slim. Your friends want a 4-5 percentage point profit margin, plus a pit fee. The price is a bit too high."

"Mr. Cai, first of all, let me make it clear that I don't know much about your business.

Secondly, I have informed my friends and asked them to take care of you. They will definitely negotiate with you according to the lowest market standards.

If you can accept it, then cooperate. If you can’t accept it, then forget it.”

Li Xingying couldn't bear it anymore.

No matter what kind of county Brahmin you are, she can't stand your endless pestering.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Li, I know you've made a lot of efforts." Cai Chenglin said with a smile: "In fact, we can really try to cooperate. I will give you a three-point reward.

If you feel this type of cooperation damages your personal image, I can go to the Commerce Bureau to endorse you. I can even have the county magistrate appear in a promotional video with you.

This way, your fans will feel that you are doing something positive and will be willing to pay for it.”

Li Xingying shook her head.

As expected, the Brahmins in the county town only care about the petty profits in front of them.

Even the county magistrate was moved out.

It is undeniable that in the era of traffic, many leading cadres in poor counties will take the initiative to go in front of the camera to promote their jurisdiction in order to find a way out and development, and some even come out to help the county residents sell goods.

But it definitely isn’t Cai Chenglin’s method of coercion and inducement.

Li Xingying said decisively: "Boss Cai, I don't need your few points of profit.

You should think of another way!"

Cai Chenglin smiled awkwardly.

Seeing that Li Xingying was so determined, he was not going to continue talking to him.

If you keep licking your own face, you will only bring shame upon yourself.

"Teacher Li, sorry to bother you." Cai Chenglin said goodbye with a smile, not forgetting to point to the Huazi and Maotai bottles at the door, "This is for Mr. Li."

Old Li was sensible and knew that one should be obliged to return the favor, so he took the things and stuffed them back into Cai Chenglin's Land Rover.

"If I didn't have one or two million worth of unsold inventory in my warehouse, would I have come to her for help? This internet celebrity really thinks she's a talented woman and a big shot."

On the way back, Cai Chenglin muttered to himself.

"Mr. Cai, don't be angry. We'll talk to her parents again and do some ideological work. Regarding our town's chili pepper project this year..."

The mayor spoke half of the words.

Cai Chenglin: "We have already communicated with the county, and it will probably come down soon."

“Thank you Mr. Cai for your support.”

Cai Chenglin said, "That girl is a tough nut to crack. I won't bother you. I'll go to the county later."

……

"Brother, Sister Xingying seems to be in some trouble."

Wu Keqing secretly sent a message to Jiang Beicheng in the evening, saying that she had witnessed the argument between Li Xingying and Cai Chenglin today.

Considering Lee Xingying's condition yesterday, I guess Lee Xingying is in big trouble this time.

Jiang Beicheng replied with a question mark.

"Anyway, Sister Li is in a bad mood, brother, why don't you come over?"

Jiang Beicheng replied, "I know, girl, don't worry about it."

He would not go all the way to Li Xingying's hometown just for this matter.

If something really makes Li Xingying feel suffocated and he is powerless, the concubine will speak to him herself.

He would naturally do his best to help his concubine.

The concubine is now handling this matter in her own way, without asking him for help or even telling him, which means that the concubine does not want him to look down on her.

When a woman's self-esteem is at its highest, your help will feel more like a blow to her.

Jiang Beicheng just told his good sister not to worry about it, and not to get involved and make things worse.

As for the rest, let my concubine handle it herself.

……

That morning, Li Xingying received an invitation from the county government office to participate in the Qingjiang County Economic Development Seminar.

She was also given the title of a social celebrity.

Just carry her up there.

She guessed that it was Cai Chenglin who went to the county to "recommend" her.

There was no choice but to go to the county government’s conference hall to attend the meeting.

It is said to be an economic development symposium, but in fact it is a mobilization meeting for live streaming sales.

It is said that many celebrities were invited, but in fact they are just local or surrounding internet celebrities.

Obviously, Li Xingying is the most valuable internet celebrity. No other internet celebrity can compare to her in terms of the number of fans or commercial value.

So she became the center of attention.

After the meeting, the director of the county government office came over to invite Li Xingying: "Teacher Li, the county governor asked me to invite you to move to the small conference room. We will have another small meeting."

Li Xingying frowned.

As expected, she guessed right and saw Cai Chenglin in the small conference room.

"Teacher Li, please sit down!" the county magistrate called out.

Looking at Cai Chenglin: "Mr. Cai solemnly introduced you, a social celebrity, to me.

Thank you for your contribution to the promotion of tourism and culture in Qingjiang County.

That's right, Teacher Li. The county has been responding to the country's call, keeping pace with the new era, and vigorously developing e-commerce.

Mr. Cai is at the forefront in this regard and is a pioneer in Qingjiang County's e-commerce industry.

But you also know that this road is not easy to walk, and the county is also doing its best to support local related enterprises and industries.

It is worth being proud of that our county has produced a social celebrity like Teacher Li.

I solemnly invite you to become the spokesperson for our Qingjiang County agricultural products."

After hearing this, Li Xingying was speechless.

She was placed too high.

The spokesperson has been chosen.

These agricultural products are basically monopolized by Cai Chenglin's food processing company.

In the final analysis, he was forced to sell goods to Cai Chenglin.

"Teacher Li?" Cai Chenglin smiled and greeted Li Xingying when she saw she didn't respond. "We are all children of Qingjiang County. Let's work together to build our hometown. The people of Qingjiang County will remember you."

Li Xingying felt disgusted when he heard him mention the word "common people".

However, he did not show a strong attitude in front of the county magistrate.

After so many years in society, I know how to deal with such situations.

"This position is too heavy. I'm afraid I can't do it well. County magistrate, please give me some time to think about it." Li Xingying said.

After the meeting and leaving the county government, she did not go home but opened a hotel in the county.

Lying down all afternoon.

When she got up later, she sent a video to Jiang Beicheng.

"husband!"

Face Jiangbei City with a smile.

Jiang Beicheng: "Did your trip to your hometown go smoothly?"

Li Xingying shook her head: "I'm embarrassed for you, husband, I encountered something that I can't handle."

He told Jiang Beicheng the whole story.

Finally, he let out a helpless smile: "I feel a little sad. My ability is still too weak."

Jiang Beicheng understood her, mainly because her parents and relatives were in her hometown, restricting her.

Smiling, he coaxed, "Abilities are acquired through practice. Just treat this as a form of training. Don't waste your time."

Li Xingying nodded: "Husband, can you help me with this?"

The concubine took the initiative to ask for help, which shows that her self-esteem has been hidden.

Jiangbei Chen doted on him, "Which county is your hometown?"

"Qingjiang County!"

"The county under the jurisdiction of the ** Autonomous Prefecture?"

"Yes, if my husband wants to come over, I'll ask my parents to prepare delicious food for the reception."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "It's just a small matter, I don't need to go there in person, you and the girl come back early, I will go back to Jiangnan City tomorrow.

See you in Jiangnan City."

After saying that, he called Ma Mingyuan, a partner of Lian Capital.

He was in that autonomous prefecture inspecting the municipal key project of the traditional Chinese medicine production base with executives from Kangtian Bio.

Jiangbei City has the contact information of the local deputy mayor, but there is no need for him to do him a favor. Just let Ma Mingyuan handle it.

"Mr. Jiang, yes, several leaders from the city and two vice presidents from Kangtian are here with us. Okay, Mr. Jiang, I will tell you the truth." Ma Mingyuan responded after receiving a call from Jiang Beicheng.
