22: Chapter 22 Shang Rou Arrives
"Idiot!"
Sun Ning added another silent assessment.
At this moment, he was somewhat doubtful whether Huang Weimin had actually won the position of First Secretary of the County Party Committee through a proper election.
Was this kind of person—arrogant and visibly stupid—the secretary of that smiling tiger from earlier?
It just doesn't add up!
Sun Ning cast aside these personal distractions and left the Township Government compound.
After having a simple bowl of braised noodles with his driver in the county seat, he returned to Mishui Township.
For the two or three days since returning from the county seat, Sun Ning had been studying the data on Mishui Township from the past year.
In fact, he was relatively familiar with the situation in Mishui Township.
But that was the economic and livelihood situation of Mishui Township more than a decade later.
As for what the situation in Mishui Township was actually like now, he had no idea.
He decided to finish reading the materials on Mishui Township during these few days before going down to inspect.
On Friday afternoon, near the end of the workday.
A car drove silently into the Township Government compound.
After an incredibly beautiful woman stepped out of the car, she walked gracefully to the general office on the first floor.
A minute later, Liaison Xiao Yuan ran into the office of the Township Head, panting.
"Township Head, your older sister is here to see you!"
Sun Ning was puzzled; no one had called to say they were coming to visit him!
Before he could even ask, a voice that was sickeningly sweet drifted in from outside the door.
"Stinky little brother, your sister has arrived, aren't you going to come and welcome me?"
Sun Ning never expected that it would be Shang Rou who had come here.
He took two steps in one, pulling Shang Rou into his embrace.
"Senior Sister, I've missed you!"
"Alright, you're a Township Head now, yet you're still acting like a child. Everyone is watching."
At this moment, the people watching in the hallway all looked at the two of them with gossiping eyes.
Sun Ning looked up, his face darkening.
"Doesn't anyone have work to do?"
After saying this, he pulled Shang Rou into the office and slammed the door shut with a bang.
His extremely disheveled appearance drew roars of laughter from outside.
This incident did not diminish Sun Ning's prestige; on the contrary, it made everyone in the Township Government compound feel that Sun Ning was a person of flesh and blood.
Instead of the Township Head they couldn't hope to reach.
"Yo, our Sun Ning has the air of a Township Head now!"
"Senior Sister is teasing me again. Since you were coming, why didn't you call me so I could go to Zhongzhou to pick you up?"
It wasn't that Sun Ning was being pretentious.
Public security during this period was far from as good as in later generations, especially after the crackdown on organized crime.
Not to mention anything else, there were many idle social elements on the national highways blocking roads and demanding money.
If those social elements saw Shang Rou's beautiful face, they might inevitably harbor evil intentions.
"Isn't this why I came to check up on you? I have to see if there are any little vixens around you."
"What kind of vixen could be more vixen-like than you?"
Having said this, Sun Ning could no longer hold back.
He grabbed Shang Rou and kissed her.
After a long while, their lips parted.
"Senior Sister, are you going to Hong Kong?"
"Sun Ning is indeed as sharp as ice and snow!"
Hearing the affirmative answer, Sun Ning couldn't help but feel a bit melancholy inside.
He knew that Shang Rou was doing this because of him.
Although she had a dream of a business empire, her ambition hadn't reached the point of being world-renowned.
Now that she had to run around to Hong Kong because of him, Sun Ning couldn't help but find it emotionally difficult to accept.
However, the matter was settled, and Sun Ning didn't dwell on it anymore.
Seeing that Sun Ning, who had been happy just a moment ago, had suddenly fallen silent, Shang Rou quickly changed the subject.
"Sun Ning, I've already taken care of the things you asked me to do; they can come over at any time."
"That's great. I'm just preparing to take a tour around Mishui Township. Let them come over after I finish my inspection."
This matter was something Sun Ning had asked Shang Rou to prepare when he was getting ready to come to Mishui Township.
Before taking office, Sun Ning had been thinking about how to develop Mishui Township and how to bring tangible benefits to the common people.
He ultimately decided to start with the livestock industry.
This not only could drive employment but also could genuinely increase the income of the common people.
He even had the cooperation model figured out.
First, establish a rural collective economic organization, and through loans and corporate cooperation, build professional farms.
And this enterprise would be the newly established livestock and food deep-processing enterprise, wholly owned by Shang Rou.
One must know that Heyang itself was a major agricultural province and also a major province for food processing.
Heyang's climatic conditions and other aspects were relatively superior, suitable for large-scale pig farming.
Sun Ning doing this was not just blindly following a pattern.
It was truly because the country was currently in a period of rapid development.
The people's growing material needs were increasing day by day.
Our country's meat shortage had also always been very large.
Therefore, Sun Ning was prepared to take the livestock industry as the first step of his administration.
And ever since Sun Ning mentioned it, Shang Rou had also been actively preparing.
She came over today to bring good news to Sun Ning.
But wanting to travel a thousand miles to deliver herself was also true.
The two chatted briefly about this matter, but were interrupted by Shang Rou.
"Stinky little brother, your sister didn't come here to discuss work with you."
Sun Ning broke into a cold sweat; they hadn't even discussed the feed mill yet?
But, since Shang Rou said everything was ready, then it was ready.
Better coax this young lady into a good mood first.
Seeing that Sun Ning had finally stopped discussing work, Shang Rou said happily: "Take your sister to see the place where you live. Mishui Township is really something; they can't even provide you with better living conditions."
Ever since Sun Ning told Shang Rou last time that he was staying with an elderly couple.
Shang Rou had been complaining about the staff in Mishui Township.
This time coming here, the first thing she asked about his life was to see his living conditions.
No matter how many times Sun Ning told Shang Rou that he was very comfortable living here.
And that the old couple took great care of him, Shang Rou always thought that Sun Ning had a feeling of living under someone else's roof.
She even threatened to come to Mishui Township to buy a house at a high price.
But she was stopped by Sun Ning.
In the end, Sun Ning couldn't win against the persistent Shang Rou.
Before work ended, he took her to the Zhou couple's home.
"Grandpa, Grandma, this is my Senior Sister, Shang Rou, who came to Mishui Township to visit me."
"Hello, Grandpa Zhou, Grandma. Thank you for taking care of Sun Ning. Please accept these small gifts."
"Not at all, it's Cadre Sun who takes care of us. You are too polite, young lady."
Saying this, Grandma Zhou took Shang Rou's hand and invited her to sit down.
"The young lady is so pretty. Is she Sun Ning's girlfriend?"
"Grandma, I'm just his Senior Sister, not his girlfriend."
Hearing this, Sun Ning felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.
To prevent him from having scandals, Shang Rou wouldn't even admit to being his girlfriend.
"Grandma, Senior Sister is mad at me. She is my girlfriend."
Then he was met with a pair of pretty eyes rolling at him, but Shang Rou didn't explain any further.
It was just dating, not actually getting married.
The organization didn't have rules against dating before marriage, right?
The couple knew the two young lovers hadn't seen each other for a long time and must have some private words to say.
So they urged the two of them to go back to their room.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the dignified Township Head Sun, a billionaire, actually lives in such a desolate room."
