Rebirth 78 was replaced by a husband, the cold educated youth pulled the curtains every day

The national highway is difficult to travel on, but it is the best road at present.

Sitting in the minibus, Shu Tianqi looked through the window and gained a new understanding of this economically backward region.

Thousands of miles of fertile fields and beautiful mountains and rivers.

After a bumpy journey, the group finally arrived at the small town of Mulan at 1 pm.

There is not even a single building higher than two stories on the old street.

At a glance, you can see from one end of the street to the other.

The car moved forward slowly.

A group of people who looked like township leaders, leading a drum band composed of half-grown children, were waiting by the roadside, looking towards the minibus with some excitement.

"Here it comes, here it comes, hurry up...knock!" someone shouted, then raised his hand to give orders.

The students carrying drums and holding gongs began to beat them under the command of this man.

Dongdong... Da La Di La Da...

Seeing the welcoming team in front, Wang Guodong stood up and smiled at everyone in the car, "It's the leaders and fellow villagers of Mulan, welcoming us in front."

Lu Ye looked through the car window at the welcoming team in front.

Those children all wore red scarves, their clothes were mostly dirty, but their little faces were full of sunshine.

These children don’t know what investment promotion is, and they don’t understand what it means to their future lives.

But this does not prevent them from being very happy.

The minibus drove closer and slowly stopped.

"Boss Shu, let's take a break here at noon."

Shu Tianqi nodded.

The car door opened and Wang Guodong was the first to get out of the car.

"Welcome! Welcome! Warm welcome~!" The children's shouts resounded into the sky.

The county leaders of Mulan also gathered in front of the car door.

"Welcome all leaders to visit our county."

Shu Tianqi got out of the car with a pale face.

Shu Tianqi, who had never experienced such a bumpy ride, felt like his stomach was about to turn over. He felt dizzy, nauseous and uncomfortable.

It was not until his feet touched the ground and he breathed the fresh air outside that Shu Tianqi felt a little more comfortable.

Wang Guodong stood in front of Shu Tianqi and said to him with a smile: "Mr. Shu, this is Comrade Sun Hong, the county magistrate of Mulan County. He knew you were coming to inspect, so he came here specially to greet you."

"Hello, County Magistrate Sun." Shu Tianqi endured the discomfort and shook hands with Sun Hong.

Shu Wen supported Shu Tianqi and walked forward.

Seeing so many children shouting warm welcome at him, Shu Tianqi cheered up and waved to the children with a smile.

"County Magistrate Sun, Mr. Shu is a little carsick. Let's let him rest first." Wang Guodong said hurriedly to Sun Hong.

"well..."

"Director Wang, we have already arranged the food. Please come in, leaders."

Sun Hong looked at Shu Tianqi, whose face was pale, and could tell that he was feeling uncomfortable.

"Dad, how are you?" Shu Wen got out of the car and came to Shu Tianqi, asking with concern.

"I'm fine. I'm feeling much better now."

Shu Tianqi gently patted Shu Wen's hand that was holding his arm twice, indicating that he was fine.

Su Mengyao followed Lu Ye and looked at the children who were still enthusiastically welcoming him. She said to Lu Ye in a low voice with some regret:

"If I had known earlier, I would have brought some candy. Now I have nothing to prepare."

Lu Ye smiled when he heard this: "It's not too late to go buy it now. Look, isn't that the supply and marketing cooperative?"

It really is!

Following Lu Ye's gaze, Su Mengyao also discovered the supply and marketing cooperative next to her.

"Come on, accompany me to buy it." Su Mengyao pulled Lu Ye and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

the other side,

Under the guidance of Sun Hong, Shu Tianqi, Shu Wen and the project team walked into the state-owned restaurant next door.

There are several large round tables in an area of ​​less than 100 square meters.

There are many damaged and falling parts on the surrounding walls, and there is an atmosphere of hardship and simplicity everywhere.

After Shu Tianqi and others sat down, Sun Hong hurriedly began to pour water for everyone.

"Leader, please have some water."

"Mr. Shu, have some water. I'd like to share with you the situation in Mulan County. Mulan is a place of outstanding people, beautiful scenery, lush mountains and clear waters...it's truly wonderful in every way."

"You've come to the right place to invest with us. We..."

Wang Guodong saw Sun Hong talking so nonstop and quickly reached out to stop him: "County Magistrate Sun, Mr. Shu is feeling a little unwell. Let's let him rest first. Don't worry, since Mr. Shu is here, we will have a chance to get to know him slowly later. Don't worry."

"Ah? Ah..."

Sun Hong was interrupted by Wang Guodong and realized that he was too anxious.

So I responded awkwardly: "Okay..."

In fact, it’s not Sun Hong’s fault that he is anxious.

Mulan County is a well-known poor county in the province, and they really need opportunities for development.

Outside, Lu Ye and Su Mengyao bought a lot of candies and biscuits from the supply and marketing cooperative, brought them to the front of the restaurant, and began to distribute them to the children.

"Students, you've worked hard. I'll treat you to some candy."

"Here, one pack per person."

"Thank you, brother, thank you, sister..."

The children who received candies and cookies all had smiles on their faces.

"Two leaders, please come in and have your meal." The staff who stayed outside said to Lu Ye and Su Mengyao.

Looking at these sun-tanned children, Lu Ye asked, "How do you arrange for these students?"

Lu Ye's question made the man stunned, and then he replied: "Oh, the teacher will take them back to school soon. Please come in, leaders."

Su Mengyao's expression was a little unnatural.

Lu Ye also felt a little uncomfortable.

A whole group of students came over to beat drums and gongs, which looked lively, but they were actually using these students as free labor.

They even just use it up and forget about it, without even eating.

"These children haven't eaten yet, right?" Lu Ye asked.

"This..." The man said with an embarrassed look on his face: "There is indeed no arrangement here, but there is a cafeteria in the school, they can go back and eat."

Lu Ye looked around the street carefully. There was only one restaurant on the entire street.

The county has not made any arrangements. If I bring these children in to eat now, I will be slapping the faces of those county leaders.

But if these students were to go hungry, Lu Ye would find it even more unacceptable.

Su Mengyao looked at Lu Ye, and her eyes expressed the same meaning.

"Go in and have a look."

Lu Ye was still unclear about the situation inside the hotel, so he decided to go in and take a look first.

Inside the hotel.

The waiters in the restaurant have already started serving food to several tables.

At the main table, Lu Ye and Su Mengyao's seats were empty.

Lu Ye took a closer look and saw that there were no other guests in the restaurant except them, and there were four empty tables.

Seeing Lu Ye and Su Mengyao come in, Wang Guodong stood up and greeted them, "Mr. Lu, please take a seat."

Come to the table.

County Magistrate Sun hurriedly picked up the teapot again and poured water for Lu Ye and Su Mengyao.

"Two leaders, please."

Lu Ye looked up at County Magistrate Sun and said softly:

"The children outside are working so hard playing the gongs and drums. We appreciate their kindness. Let the children come in to eat. They are the flowers of the motherland. We adults can't eat inside and let the children go hungry."

Lu Ye’s words made Sun Hong look a little unhappy.

They didn't arrange meals for those students.

"Yes, let the students in quickly." Shu Wen had been taking care of her father Shu Tianqi. When she heard Lu Ye's words, she hurriedly added.

Seeing Director Wang also winking at him, Sun Hong finally responded, "Okay, I'll go call him right away."
