Chapter 19 A Visit to the Provincial Capital Shows Off Connections
1. Luxury cars enter town, indicating the arrival of distinguished guests.
The morning after the car accident, a gleaming luxury sedan drove into Qinglong Town along a country road.
The vehicle drove smoothly all the way and eventually stopped directly on the mudflats next to the Turtle Temple.
As soon as the car stopped, many villagers who were busy working on the beach looked over instinctively.
The car door slowly opened, and Murong Fangxiang stepped out of the car.
Despite her simple and appropriate attire, she couldn't hide her innate air of nobility.
His words and actions exuded an air completely different from that of people in the countryside.
The villagers who were passing by had never seen such a person before, and they all stopped and stared at him.
All eyes turned to her, and they began to whisper among themselves.
Murong Fangxiang paid no attention to the gazes around her and walked straight toward Chen Shanhe.
She stood in front of Chen Shanhe, her tone filled with genuine concern.
"Mr. Chen, I'm really worried about what happened yesterday after it was so dangerous."
Chen Shanhe nodded slightly, his expression calm.
"Young Master Murong, you've made a special trip; I appreciate your concern."
Murong Fangxiang's gaze swept over the mudflats and the Divine Turtle Temple in front of her, her tone steady and powerful.
"I have personally contacted the relevant leaders at both the county and city levels."
"We will assign a special team to thoroughly investigate your car accident, and we will definitely investigate the Wu family thoroughly."
"Old cases involving the destruction of mudflats and damage to ancient waterways will also be investigated and rectified."
As she spoke, she took a document from her handbag and handed it to Chen Shanhe.
"This is a cooperation agreement for the aquatic product distribution channels in the provincial capital."
"If you agree, I can help you sell your mudflat seafood to all parts of the province."
"I can also help you connect with business resources and official connections at the provincial and municipal levels."
II. A single word startled the crowd, causing the quiet girl to grieve.
Murong Fangxiang looked at Chen Shanhe, her voice clear and loud, deliberately making sure that everyone around could hear her.
"Your medical skills and abilities deserve a larger platform; you shouldn't be confined to this small town."
"If you encounter any trouble in the province or city in the future, feel free to mention my name, Murong Fangxiang."
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding villagers erupted in uproar, and discussions instantly broke out.
"A big shot from the provincial capital actually values Doctor Chen so much!"
"Just stating his name works? Dr. Chen must have climbed the social ladder!"
The gazes of the crowd toward Chen Shanhe instantly held a mixture of awe and envy.
Su Wanjing stood at the very edge of the crowd, her fingers tightly gripping the hem of her clothes, her knuckles turning white.
She looked up at Murong Fangxiang's calm and confident demeanor.
A single sentence from the other party can alarm county and city leaders, and a sales channel can be easily established throughout the province.
That confidence, connections, and vision were things I could only dream of.
She looked down at her old shoes covered in mud and her simple clothes.
A sense of crisis surged within her, making it hard for her to breathe.
Feelings of inferiority and reluctance intertwined deep within my heart, causing a sharp pain in my chest.
The more she looked at them, the more insignificant she felt, and she no longer dared to look directly at them as they talked.
She slowly lowered her head, her long hair obscuring her face.
My eyes felt slightly warm, and tears welled up in them.
But she bit her lip tightly, trying her best to hold back her tears.
She was afraid that if she cried, she would be even less worthy of the increasingly dazzling man in front of her.
III. A Brief Answer to My Thoughts, Offering Temporary Peace of Mind
Murong Fangxiang only stayed briefly on the mudflats, finished explaining the matters, and then turned and drove away.
The luxury car slowly drove away, but the villagers remained standing there, watching for a long time.
The crowd gradually dispersed only after the car had completely disappeared at the end of the road.
The discussions still lingered, with everyone talking about Chen Shanhe's fate.
Su Wanjing stood there for a long time before slowly walking to Chen Shanhe's side.
She looked at the clam seedlings on the mudflats, then glanced at the Turtle Temple in the distance.
My heart was filled with mixed feelings, and I couldn't speak for a long time.
Chen Shanhe turned to look at her and saw that her eyes were still red, but he didn't ask any further questions.
Su Wanjing gently bit her lower lip, her voice soft and filled with barely concealed unease.
"Young Master Murong values you so much that he even paved the way for you throughout the entire province."
"Will you... leave here and go to the provincial capital to develop your career in the future?"
She asked cautiously, afraid of hearing a positive answer.
Chen Shanhe followed her gaze and looked at the Divine Turtle Temple and the entire mudflat.
Here are the seedlings he planted himself, his fledgling business, and the people around him.
He remained silent for a moment, his eyes resolute, his tone steady and powerful.
"My current foundation is on this mudflat, in Qinglong Town."
"First, we need to stabilize tidal flat aquaculture so that aquaculture can truly take off."
"Rely on your medical skills, cultivate more connections at the grassroots level, and gradually solidify your network of connections in officialdom."
"If you don't have a solid foundation, you won't be able to stand firm on even the biggest platform."
"I won't leave until things are settled here."
Su Wanjing looked at his profile and listened to his words, feeling a little more at ease.
But when he thought of Murong Fangxiang's identity and confidence, that unease quietly rose again.
She gave a soft "hmm," lowered her head, and said no more.
But a stone still hangs in my heart, unable to settle down for a long time.
IV. The town mayor hosted a banquet to cultivate official connections.
In the evening, Mayor Wang Feihu made a special trip from the town government to the mudflats.
As soon as he saw Chen Shanhe, he quickly stepped forward and reached out to grab him.
"Dr. Chen, I've prepared a simple meal at home tonight. Please do me the honor of joining me."
Chen Shanhe initially wanted to decline, but Wang Feihu insisted earnestly.
"Firstly, to celebrate my mother's recovery, and secondly, to thank you properly."
Seeing that he could not refuse such a kind offer, Chen Shanhe nodded in agreement.
The food was simple, but the atmosphere at the dinner table was very warm.
Wang Feihu looked around to make sure no one would disturb him, then took out a thick envelope from his pocket.
He gently pushed the envelope in front of Chen Shanhe, his expression solemn.
"Dr. Chen, this is a small token of my appreciation; please accept it."
"If it weren't for you, I don't know how much longer my mother's illness would have dragged on. This kindness is too heavy."
Chen Shanhe didn't even look at it, and simply pushed the envelope back.
"Treating the sick and saving lives is my duty, it's just a small favor, I can't accept money."
Wang Feihu frowned and picked up the envelope again, intending to hand it to him.
"You must accept it, otherwise I'll feel guilty."
Chen Shanhe remained calm and resolute, refusing to accept the offer.
Seeing that Chen Shanhe insisted on not accepting the letter, Wang Feihu had no choice but to give up and take back the envelope.
Chen Shanhe spoke up, his tone calm.
"How is Auntie's health lately? Is her recovery going smoothly?"
A smile instantly bloomed on Wang Feihu's face, his tone full of joy.
"He's full of energy, even better than when he was younger."
"My chronic asthma, which I've had for many years, is completely cured, and I haven't coughed since."
"She eats well, sleeps soundly, and has a rosy complexion. The neighbors all say she looks like a completely different person."
Chen Shanhe nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"The health and well-being of the elderly is more important than anything else."
Wang Feihu picked up his wine glass, stood up, and spoke with great respect.
"Dr. Chen, your medical skills are superb, and you are also very modest."
"In the future, in any town or village, there will be no need for me to be of any use."
"I, Wang Feihu, will do everything in my power to help you, without hesitation."
Chen Shanhe also picked up his wine glass and gently clinked it against his.
The two drank it all in one gulp, and the personal connections among the grassroots officials were thus deepened once again.
