After returning to Wushu Village, Ji Yang stopped dealing with the matters of the township, knowing the young masters wouldn’t listen to him anyway.
Every day, Ji Yang’s energy was devoted to the construction of the new rural area. Today was the day the whole village was moving into their new homes, and Ji Yang had arrived early in the morning.
The villagers of Wushu Village were in very good spirits, as they had watched these houses being built.
"Chief Ji, I never dreamed I could live in such a nice house!" a villager exclaimed.
Wu Laofu was also moved, wiping away tears, "If you hadn’t come to our village, we would never have been able to live in such a wonderful place!"
With those words, everyone looked at Ji Yang with eyes full of gratitude.
Although they knew that Wu Changshan’s family had benefited the most from this project, everyone still understood, considering Wu Mi and others from the Wu Family had married Ji Yang.
Of course, Ji Yang’s affairs with the Wu Family were not openly criticized, and nobody took the issue lightly.
Ji Yang smiled as he helped everyone move, saying, "This is just the beginning. There are many more benefits to come. The pharmaceutical plant needs a large supply of rice and medicinal herbs, right? You can plant them on a large scale."
Wu Laofu smiled, "Everyone has already started, and the prices are very good this time. The income is much higher than before. Also, the highway is about to be connected. When more tourists come here, everyone will have a courtyard to operate. That will be a real moneymaker."
"That’s all thanks to Chief Ji’s foresight in planning for us early!"
Ji Yang laughed, "Your village committee must study the development path more. As long as you have ideas, there’s no worry about developing. The mountain goods are also a great asset that shouldn’t be overlooked."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Ji Yang then turned to Wu Laofu, "It’s essential to keep up with cultural and spiritual development. When people have free time, organize dances or other activities in the fitness area to keep everyone engaged." ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel✦fire.net
"We’ve done everything as you’ve requested. Also, a few families in the mountains have also been persuaded to come back down, willing to move out of the mountains."
Looking around, Ji Yang said, "When more tourists start coming, accommodation will be an issue, as will dining. It would be best if a facility could be set up here to handle it collectively."
"Um, that’s a good idea, we will discuss and proceed with it."
Back at Wu Changshan’s house, Ji Yang had his own room there, officially staying as a guest.
Now that the internet was connected, Ji Yang didn’t have to worry about going online; upon opening his computer, he saw that his novel was ready to be published online.
It was going to be featured on the first day!
This indicated that his novel was doing well, having made significant progress.
Looking at the number of favorites, Ji Yang was somewhat surprised; he had already reached over eighty thousand.
Such a number of real favorites was very impressive, and it was clear that it was still increasing.
With a strong promotional push and the upcoming publication, Ji Yang was confident about the subscription to his book.
Sometimes in his calls with Miao Xiaoying, Ji Yang would casually inquire about these matters. From what he could tell from his current achievements, his work was likely to be successful.
Thinking about the upcoming publication, Ji Yang naturally wanted to save more drafts and began typing intensively.
Time passed, and Ji Yang churned out three Chapters totaling six thousand words before stopping.
Ji Yang typed fast, almost a Chapter in less than half an hour, and looked at the time, it hadn’t even taken an hour and a half. He was satisfied with his typing speed.
When he left the room, Wu Mi came up to him, "Are you done working?"
While Ji Yang was typing, they would not disturb him.
Smiling and nodding, Ji Yang curiously asked, "Didn’t go out?"
"There’s almost nothing else to do now, aside from studying, there’s not much we can do."
Ji Yang said, "How about I arrange for you to go out for further studies?"
"Further studies?" Wu Mi hadn’t really thought about that.
Ji Yang said, "Idle as you are, it’s good to learn more. I’ll handle it."
Ji Yang suddenly had an idea; many people from the mountains lacked exposure. If they could be organized to go out and learn, it would expand their horizons.
He picked up his phone and dialed Sun Xiaozhen.
Last time, Sun Xiaozhen had mentioned that she was now teaching at Agricultural University, handling rural women’s training programs. He could ask about that.
Receiving Ji Yang’s call, Sun Xiaozhen was happy and laughed, "What’s up? Why did the busy man suddenly think to call me?"
Ji Yang laughed, "Old classmate, can’t I call you just because?"
"Tell me, what’s the matter?"
Ji Yang explained his idea of organizing some women for training.
Sun Xiaozhen laughed, "That’s coincidental. We are planning exactly that, a training class specifically for you all to introduce domestic and foreign business situations and the possible paths for rural development."
"That would be great."
Sun Xiaozhen added, "The province fully supports this kind of thing. All expenses will be covered by the province and the school, you don’t have to do a thing."
"That’s good, we can get this going."
The two then discussed the plans further.
