Chapter 88: Chapter 90: Meeting an Old Classmate



Especially for the wealthier people, health surpasses everything else.

Even if you are the president or the wealthiest person, without health, it\'s all in vain.

Shen Yuerong, born into nobility, understood this better.

Because she had seen many distinguished individuals spend a fortune for their health, ready to abandon their wealth just to cling to life.

Having tasted Long Xiaoshan\'s fruits and vegetables, she found that flavor was secondary, and their health-promoting effects were the most potent.

She specifically sent some back to Yanjing for the old master to eat.

It won high praise from the old master.

He requested that Shen Yuerong send some every week.

It was for this reason that Shen Yuerong saw a great future for Long Xiaoshan\'s farm, which could transcend just one county\'s boundaries. If developed well, the benefits it could generate were astonishing.

But the location of the farm was too poor.

Tucked away in a destitute ravine, its innate conditions restricted development.

"Xiaoshan, let me ask you, can this farm be relocated? The township can grant you special approval for land," Shen Yuerong said.

Long Xiaoshan pondered for a moment before saying, "No, I\'ve tried, but only the land in our village is truly unique. The feng shui is good and can produce such high-quality fruits and vegetables."

"Really?" Shen Yuerong was somewhat skeptical.

Having visited Longyang Village twice, she saw that only Long Xiaoshan\'s farm could cultivate the health-promoting fruits and vegetables—the others farmed by villagers were just average.

"Really, why would I lie to you? Actually, planting also pays attention to feng shui; it\'s not done haphazardly."

Long Xiaoshan said this half-jokingly, understanding what Shen Yuerong meant.

However, his goal in running the farm was not only to make money but also to develop the village and help the villagers of Longyang Village become wealthy.

If he moved the farm out, even though the geographical conditions would be better and making money might be more convenient, the villagers would still remain poor, and the village itself would not develop.

Therefore, he would rather stay in the ravine for development.

"Well then, if that\'s the case, we must hurry and build a road. That mountain path is too rugged; larger vehicles can\'t even get through. It will be very difficult for you to expand," Shen Yuerong said.

To get rich, build roads first. Simple, yet a profound truth.

Shen Yuerong, a brilliant economics student, knew this.

Long Xiaoshan knew it as well.

He nodded and said, "That\'s what I think as well, which is why I came to discuss with Sister Shen."

"For your location, going up the mountain and digging tunnels is impractical; the only option is to build a winding mountain road. I\'ve had people look at it, and constructing a four-meter-wide cement village road would require at least three million in investment even with various preferential treatments from the township."

"Just four meters, isn\'t that a bit narrow?" Long Xiaoshan said.

"It is narrow, but the township is impoverished. Even if we were to appeal to the county, it\'s unlikely we\'d secure such funding," Shen Yuerong said, feeling helpless.

It\'s hard to cook a meal without rice.

She was ambitious!

And saw the potential in the farm\'s development.

But without money, there was nothing she could do.

"If we\'re going to build it, we need to build it well to prevent repeated work in the future. How much would a third-class highway cost?" Long Xiaoshan asked.

"A third-class highway is usually a main road in county areas, with a minimum roadbed width of 9.5 meters. That\'s hardly realistic without tunneling, which would be a huge investment," Shen Yuerong said.

"Just give me an estimate first, I will figure out the money," Long Xiaoshan said.

"It won\'t be less than ten million," Shen Yuerong said.

"Ten million, huh," Long Xiaoshan murmured to himself.

That was no small amount.

Don\'t think that Shangguan Baihe casually invested ten million in the farm; actually, how could Shangguan Baihe engage in a losing business? She earned more than Long Xiaoshan by reselling those fruits and vegetables.

Plus, that ten million investment has not even been fully put in place yet.

Even if it was, Shangguan Baihe\'s investment would be to the farm, not for road construction.

But he wasn\'t completely out of options.

Right now, he still had several million in funds at his disposal.

He thought that raising ten million wouldn\'t be too much of an issue.

In Xinyuan County over there, either Beacon Fire Company or Zhao Jun should be able to lend it.

"Sister Shen, just go by the standards for a third-class highway. See how much the county can support; I\'ll cover the rest," Long Xiaoshan said boldly.

"What, you\'ll cover it? Xiaoshan, this money is just thrown away," Shen Yuerong said.

"It\'s not exactly thrown away. Fixing the road will be a great help to the development of my farm, and it will make it more convenient for the villagers to come and go, right?" Long Xiaoshan said.

Shen Yuerong gave Long Xiaoshan a deep look, then said with determination, "If we really want to build a third-class road to your village from the township, such a big investment is not a trivial matter. It would be a significant achievement even at the county level, and it must be supported. I\'ll write a report right now and do my best to fight for it, the more support, the better."

"Thank you for the trouble, Sister Shen," Long Xiaoshan said with a smile.

"To be honest, if it really happens, it will be a great achievement for me too. You don\'t think I\'m helping you for nothing," Shen Yuerong laughed.

The two of them chatted for a while.

Long Xiaoshan needed to hurry to the county, so he took his leave.

After arriving at the county,

Long Xiaoshan first called Long Xiaoling. For ease of contact, he had bought her a mobile phone last time.

"Brother," Long Xiaoling said happily upon receiving Long Xiaoshan\'s call.

"Where are you?"

"At work, of course."

"Then I\'m coming over."

"Bro, you\'re in Xinyuan County?"

"Yeah, I\'ll talk to you about it later."

Long Xiaoshan hung up the phone and drove to the hotel. Upon arriving, he saw that the Lily Hotel\'s entrance was filled with cars, including many with out-of-town license plates.

Walking inside, Long Xiaoshan noticed the restaurant had a long queue.

"So lively."

Long Xiaoshan was surprised to see the bustling restaurant; the business was much better than the last time he was here.

He walked further inside, familiar with the place as it wasn\'t his first visit.

As he was walking, suddenly a voice called out, "Long Xiaoshan?"

Turning around, Long Xiaoshan saw a young couple sitting at a dining table. The man was somewhat short and chubby, dressed in a suit, with shiny pomaded hair, a golden, glittering watch peeking from his cuff, giving off a somewhat nouveau riche air.

The woman was made-up and pretty, dressed in branded clothes throughout.

"Li Zhijun, Liu Qing," Long Xiaoshan recognized them.

They were old classmates from Number One Middle School.

"It really is you," Li Zhijun said with a smile, standing up.

He assessed Long Xiaoshan\'s clothes and, upon seeing his unsophisticated T-shirt and shorts, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes as he stood up, looping his arm around the woman beside him, "Qingqing, why don\'t you say hello to an old classmate."

"Long Xiaoshan, long time no see," Liu Qing said, her expression a bit stiff.

That\'s because back then,

Long Xiaoshan was the study committee member, and she was the class president.

As Long Xiaoshan excelled in academics, she admired him and even held some romantic feelings for him, often being teased by the class as a couple.

Although nothing really happened between them, Liu Qing still felt somewhat awkward, especially now that she was with Li Zhijun, who was the worst student in their class.
