It has been more than ten years since the county magistrate of Rongsheng County took office in the county.
All his colleagues and classmates were promoted as they should have been, but he remained the same for more than ten years, staying in Rongsheng County and watching the county change bit by bit.
From scratch, from a small factory to a large factory, from poverty to what it is today.
Matthew was the one who gave up his old face and found a way out from his old classmates.
This old man is no ordinary person. He is a physics professor at Harvard University and holds a patent for automobile engines that countless countries and businessmen are after.
He flew to many countries, but he didn't decide where to set up a factory for manufacturing. Now that he arrived in China, the county magistrate directly found connections and snatched him over.
Their county is indeed a bit small, but the scenery is beautiful and the people are hardworking and capable. If he builds the factory in Rongsheng County, he guarantees that he will not lose money.
You will definitely make a fortune, and of course it can also indirectly promote the economic development of Rongsheng County.
Then wouldn’t his political achievements come? It is impossible to say that it is very possible to take another step forward.
But he really didn't expect that Matthew was too stubborn. He didn't like too many people around him, and he didn't like others to arrange things for him.
He is happy to wander around alone. If he is satisfied, he will stay for a few more days. If he is not satisfied, he will leave that night.
There was no other way. The county magistrate had no choice but to send interns who knew English to his side. At least there would be no problem communicating with the locals.
He was anxious and worried alone in his work office. He couldn't sleep all night long, thinking every day whether this thing could work.
What if it doesn’t work out?
A few days later, the person he sent out appeared in front of him with a happy face.
"The county magistrate, the county magistrate, he agreed! He agreed!"
"Ah..." The county magistrate was a little confused.
"Matthews! He agreed to build the first automobile engine manufacturing plant in our county!"
"When our county becomes developed, it will definitely become one of the most famous counties in the country."
The county magistrate was as excited and sluggish as if he had drunk Wuliangye in the early morning. He climbed directly onto the desk and clasped Xiao Fang's shoulders tightly. His eyes were red and his mouth was trembling. "What did you say? What did you say?"
He wasn't dreaming! Did the distinguished guest agree? His dream has come true!
Xiao Fang was so excited that his body was trembling, his expression was wild and he nodded fiercely, "He told me so, he told me so!"
"County Magistrate, hurry up and ask someone to discuss with Matthews how to sign this contract. Hurry up!"
The county magistrate got down from his desk in a panic. He collected his breathing, combed his hair, pulled off his clothes, and opened the door of the office with both hands and feet.
"Quick, quick, call everyone to the conference room! Hurry!"

After Gu Lin came back from the stall in the morning, he took Muning out to look at the house again.
There are really many shops near the square, some with good locations and some in the corners.
Muning in the corner gave up first.
This is no longer the era when the smell of wine is not afraid of the deep alleys. If they are too far away from the square, no matter how delicious the food is, they will definitely lose part of their customer base.
After all, people are lazy creatures. When they are hungry, they want to go out and buy something to eat. How can they be in the mood to go to the corner of the store to buy something to eat?
Of course, the prices at shops close to the square are indeed a little more expensive.
For example, Gu Lin had always been optimistic about the store.
Not only is the location facing the square, but you can also put down a lot of things in the store. There is even a place in the kitchen to handle crayfish. If you are tired, you can go upstairs to sleep.
The area is not small, and at least seven or eight tables can be placed in the store.
This is simply Muning's dream shop, the kind that makes you want to buy it.
"This shop is indeed very good. The landlord is an old man. He and his wife previously opened a dumpling shop. When the old couple got older, their son wanted to take them into retirement, so the shop became vacant."
It was empty, but obviously the old man didn't want to sell it at a low price.
The asking price is only 221 square meters and there is no bargaining. This price is really not cheap.
If you really buy it, the money in your bankbook will be reduced by at least half.
Muning looked at the shop with her mouth open. She knew in her heart that the price would be like cabbage in future generations. It was so cheap.
She opened her mouth excitedly, "Well, Gu Lin, what do you think?"
They are husband and wife, and they have two babies in their belly. She cannot decide such a big matter alone.
Gu Lin could see that Muning wanted it very much, so he directly replied, "Buy! Our family is rich!"
Muning nodded wildly, "Yes, we will definitely be able to earn it back in the future."
To put it bluntly, even if they really lose money, the house will be theirs after they buy it, and they will never lose money after they get there.
The two of them called the landlord bravely, but after a long time... no one answered.
Muning's excitement turned into helplessness, "Okay, maybe they are busy, let's take a look tomorrow."
The two of them went home hand in hand. After all, they had to set up a stall selling cold noodles at noon.
But with the store hanging in front of them, both Muning and Gu Lin were very excited.
The man lowered his head slightly and looked at Muning, who was touching her belly tenderly. He raised the fan in his hand over her head.
"Be careful when drying." Muning looked up and smiled.
After several days of pushing and pulling, the county magistrate of Rongsheng County and Matthew finally finalized a contract that was beneficial to both parties.
After the names were signed and both parties shook hands, the county magistrate said excitedly, "Matthew, I want to invite you to the city for dinner. Please be sure to go. I personally really want to thank you."
However, Matthew shook his head after hearing the translation, "NO! NO! I don't want to go to the city to eat, I want to eat crayfish, tea eggs..."
"I want to eat in the county seat, and I want to drink rice wine! Rice wine!"
