Quick Transmigration: I Actually Became a System Bug

Of course, Shi Shaoyu and Ji Han weren't the type to just do whatever the operations team told them to do, but they still cooperated by doing some reasonable things. Even so, their live streams consistently ranked at the top of the platform's charts, and they received so many gifts that they couldn't keep up.

That year, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu neither went to Shi's family home nor to Ji Han's parents' home for the Spring Festival. The two of them filled up their storage space in advance, and then each carried a backpack and went to that remote mountain village with the people from their welfare organization team.

After leaving the somewhat dilapidated small county town, the car broke down halfway because it had rained a few days earlier. There were two government staff members who came with us: one was Deputy Secretary Zhang, the second-in-command of the county, and the other was the director of the county's poverty alleviation office, who also had the surname Zhang.

Looking at the current situation, Director Zhang, with an embarrassed expression on his somewhat mature face, told Ji Han and the others that although the tow truck and repair personnel could arrive in two hours, the remaining roads were indeed impassable by car.

Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu had lived in ancient times, so they were prepared for this situation. They even took out a stack of transparent, long, rain-proof shoe covers from their backpacks. Shi Shaoyu took the shoe covers from Ji Han, kept one pair for each of them, and handed the rest to the people next to them.

"Here, everyone take some and share. The road ahead will definitely be muddier than this, so be prepared."

Deputy Secretary Zhang and Director Zhang looked at the rain shoe covers Shi Shaoyu handed them, a flash of surprise crossing their eyes. At first, they thought that Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu were just young masters having fun. They came to accompany them because they heard that although this welfare institution had not been established for long, its financial resources and reputation were quite good. Their county was really too poor, not to mention the villages below.

The children in the village have to get up before dark to go to school. The mountain roads are rugged and dangerous, and they have to walk for at least four or five hours each way. However, even so, no teacher is willing to come here to teach because the teaching conditions are too harsh and the salary is too low.

Ji Han and his team came here for two reasons: one, to investigate the local situation, and two, to select a suitable location to build a school. The roads from each village to the school and the corresponding teachers will be supported by welfare organizations.

This is the first major project since Ji Han and his welfare organization was established. Not only does the county government attach great importance to it, but the two of them also attach great importance to it, making sure that all the donations are used effectively.

Even though this project is likely to be unprofitable for the two of them, Ji Han and his partner are willing to do something meaningful, regardless of cost, while they have the ability to do so.

Ji Han and his group walked for more than two hours. Apart from Ji Han, Shi Shaoyu, Deputy Secretary Zhang and Director Zhang were still in good condition. The rest of the staff were panting heavily from sitting in the office for long periods of time and not exercising.

Fortunately, an oxcart was approaching from the opposite direction. It was moving very slowly, but it seemed to be getting closer. Ji Han and the others rested for a moment, waiting for the oxcart to come closer. The driver was an elderly man with thinning, gray hair. He smiled and waved to them from afar.

"Secretary Zhang, Director Zhang! And all the leaders, I'm so sorry, the road was a bit rough, I'm late."

Director Zhang walked up to the old man and greeted him familiarly. It was then that Ji Han realized that the old man was the village chief of the first village they were going to visit, Village Chief Ma.

“Village Chief Ma, you’ve arrived. We didn’t expect the road conditions to be this bad. We’ve come here before when it rained, and the car could still drive to the edge of your village.”

Village Chief Ma tapped his pipe sheepishly.

"Well, Director, I'm really sorry. It rained a while ago, and the ditch up ahead got clogged for some reason, causing this section of the road to be quite flooded. Plus, the rainwater brought in mud, so..."

Director Zhang nodded in understanding, then gave Ji Han and Village Chief Ma a brief introduction to each other, before pointing to the carriage behind them and saying,

"Gentlemen, it's just in time that Village Chief Ma has come to pick us up. Shall we take the carriage there?"

Ji Han glanced at the oxcart stuck in the mud and at Village Chief Ma's slightly helpless expression, then smiled at Deputy Secretary Zhang and Director Zhang.

"Director Zhang, I see that the oxcart isn't going very well on this road. How about this, we let the ladies and our luggage get on the oxcart, and the rest of us can walk over together."

Since the boss had spoken, the employees could only agree. Similarly, since the investor had spoken, the two government officials could only grit their teeth and continue walking with them. Village Chief Ma, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gratefully at Ji Han. He was really afraid that everyone would get on the bus. When they came, he felt that Lao Niu was already very tired. He really couldn't afford to compensate Lao Niu, as Lao Niu was the collective property of the village!

Ji Han helped Shi Shaoyu along, and they followed the oxcart for more than two hours. By the time they reached the nearest village, the sun was already beginning to set. Looking at the sparse, low houses in the village, and the layered mountains behind them, Ji Han couldn't tell whether he was in ancient times or modern times.

Director Zhang stood beside them, looking at the shocked expressions on their faces, and said with a troubled expression,

"Did you all not expect that even at this time of year, there would still be such a backward village?"

"But actually, this is already the best of the five villages we are going to inspect. At least there are not many mountain roads leading to the county town, and the village has electricity. The other four villages are all in the mountains behind, where many families do not have electricity or running water and still live a life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset."

"To save money, they rarely use candles or kerosene lamps, and they usually save their flashlights for the children or in case of an emergency."

“There are indeed some products in the mountains, and the county has considered helping them change their lives by collecting, raising or planting these mountain products. However, as you saw when you came, our county is also very poor. To get rich, you must first build roads. Where can we come up with so much money to build roads!”

“We have been attracting investment for many years, and many people have come to contact us before, but you are the first company to express investment intentions.”

Ji Han... Director Zhang! You're a director, how can you reveal all your assets just to get investment? Aren't you afraid they'll make exorbitant demands and ask for other terms?

Oh! Well, he made a mistake himself. He forgot that he's not a businessman; he runs a welfare organization!
