Whether you have money or not, you still have to celebrate the New Year.
This is your first year in Yanyun County, which is of great significance.
Xiao Chen hoped that all his brothers from other places could come, but none of them came back.
Li Tanhua is too far away, making it inconvenient to travel, and Wen Chengxu is too busy to get away. He now wishes he could become a three-headed and six-armed man, and there is no way he would sacrifice ten days for a trip just to celebrate the New Year.
Fu Yan is not coming back either. He has only been in office for such a short time, and all the affairs in the county have not been smoothed out yet. How can he have time to celebrate the New Year?
Even if it's the Chinese New Year, I have to spend it with my colleagues in the county and the people. It's impossible to come to Changshan.
Zhuge Xiaosheng didn't come back either, but just persuaded Wei Yuntian to come back. After all, there was Liu Xiangqin at home. After so long, why not let the young couple spend the New Year together?
But Wei Yuntian couldn't leave Zhuge Xiaosheng alone, so neither brother returned.
However, everyone was still thinking about their boss, and they all sent people to send back a lot of new year gifts. Xiao Chen was not happy to see him, but rather depressed.
I miss you, not gifts!
But when it comes to gifts, Xiao Chen really has to start preparing.
He plans to go back to Fengyang City before the Lantern Festival. He has been out for so long, so he can't go back empty-handed, right?
But fortunately, everyone knows that Yanyun County is a bitter cold place, and there are no good things. It is just some local goods such as leather goods, medicinal materials, and Ross's specialties. You have to prepare some.
Even a small amount would need a cargo ship to hold it. He had so many friends, and it would be bad to leave anyone behind.
Anyway, Xiao Chen was not having a good time this year.
Duan Linger, Ye Baiqing and the others saw that he was in a bad mood, so they took him out shopping. At first, he was sullen and unhappy, but after walking on the street for a while, his mood gradually improved.
Because the street market was crowded with people and busy with traffic, it was a peaceful and prosperous scene!
Almost all shops are crowded with people, and there are even long queues in front of many shops.
Everyone's face was filled with smiles, and they all talked about their parents' trivial matters and New Year's greetings.
Because the New Year was approaching and the population flow was extremely large, Liu Congshu simply opened the city gates day and night, allowing the people to come and go at will, and even canceled the previous curfew.
This is a bold decision, because there has been no such precedent since Changshan Prefecture was established.
"Brother, I heard Liu Cong say that our Changshan Prefecture has not had such a lively New Year in decades." As a girl, Duan Ling'er also loves to go shopping, so she bought a lot of messy things in a short time. , she didn’t need to take it herself, it was all carried on Xiao Ye’s shoulders.
"Isn't this all the kindness of our boss?" Ye Baiqing flattered him smoothly.
"Actually, I really didn't do anything. Even if I did something, it wouldn't be enough." Xiao Chen was happy in his heart and humble in his mouth.
"I know you are unhappy, boss. You just want Xiaosheng Yuntian and the others to come back so that everyone can celebrate the New Year happily. But boss, if we are happy and lively, the common people will not be so peaceful and happy. Already." Ye Baiqing said.
"Then I'm going to quit and just become a common man!" Xiao Chen originally wanted to be an ordinary person. Don't forget that all the so-called big things he does now are actually forced.
"Okay, if you don't do it, we brothers won't do it either. With our abilities, we can do quite well no matter where we are, earn 18 million yuan, occupy a small island, and build a large Luxurious house, buy thousands of maids and slaves, open dozens of big money-making businesses, and from then on live well and drink hot food, not care about worldly affairs, live a happy life!"
Ye Baiqing's words just hit Xiao Chen's heart. This was his ultimate dream.
So he stopped talking.
"Boss, do you still remember the first time you revealed your true identity to us in Jiuxi? Everyone decided to follow you to do something big. Can you still remember what Xiaosheng said at that time? He said that from then on From that moment on, boss, you can't help yourself." Ye Baiqing's blood boiled again as she thought of the situation that day.
Because even he didn't know that he was quite courageous, and he was not even afraid of death. Hey, who said I was just a useless scholar?
I am also a man, okay!
"Well, remember, it's not just me. Everyone can't help but follow me." Xiao Chen sighed with mixed feelings.
"You are a good big brother, and you really have nothing to say to the brothers. The big guys followed you originally just to admire your character, but then we found out that you are not only a good big brother, but also a good boss. It is nothing for me, Bai Qing, to admire you. But it’s not easy for Xiaosheng, Li Tanhua, and even Mr. Chen to obey you.”
"There are also Lin Yue, Yuntian, Fu Wanchun... they are all heroes of the world. They work hard day and night with you, exhausted mentally and physically. What is their purpose? At a big level, it is for the common people in the world to live a good life. At a small level, it is for the common people in the world to live a good life. I said it is so that you, boss, can do something great, and the big guy also wants to be a general and a prime minister, to protect his wife and seal his son."
"If you just want to enjoy happiness and wealth, then you don't have to be so desperate, right? You, the boss, are our backbone. Everyone looks up to you. Your every word and deed affects everyone's heart. If you are tired and exhausted, That guy’s heart has become cold, so what big things can he do like this?”
"Actually, we all know that you don't want to be a king, let alone an emperor, but boss, you should do something for nothing else, even if it is just for these common people, right? Sacrifice your own happiness and benefit There are so many ordinary people, no matter how you calculate this account, it will be easy to settle."
"Mr. Chen and Zhuge Xiaosheng have both talked to me respectively. Do you know what they are worried about? They are worried that you will suddenly give up on one thing! Again, we all know that you are willing to be the emperor, but if you don't do this Emperor, what will happen to us brothers in the future? What is the significance of what we are doing now?"
Ye Baiqing simply said it happily today. These words have been pressing in his heart for a long time.
"It's unnecessary for you to worry. There's no way I can run away and leave you all alone." Xiao Chen listened to all Ye Baiqing's words, but it was these words that made him very dissatisfied. You guys treat me as the boss. Who is he?
"Boss, you still don't understand what we mean!" Ye Baiqing said, "You have to take the world as your own responsibility, and you can't just think about us brothers! If one day we all die, then you will just stop doing anything and don't care. ?”
"I..." Xiao Chen was speechless.
"You must be thinking about quitting now, right? Take the brothers and leave." Ye Baiqing said coldly, "If you can't let go of your brothers, can you let go of these people? If we leave now, Yan Yun The county will immediately return to its original state of chaos, and instead of being prosperous, the land will be starved to death!"
"Bai Qing, your words hurt my heart so much." Xiao Chen sighed.
