Small Farmer Medical God novel Chapter 342

Chapter 342: Chapter 342 Designation as a Tourist Area

Half an hour later, amid the booming sounds of firecrackers, Hu Xiaobei looked at the square named after him, feeling somewhat sentimental.

"Xiaobei, do you still feel like you’re dreaming?"

Hearing Han Xueyao’s inquiry, Hu Xiaobei gently nodded, "Yes, it still feels like a dream!"

Seeing Hu Xiaobei’s somewhat incredulous expression, Han Xueyao chuckled.

Previously, when these villagers and Han Xueyao talked about building a square for Hu Xiaobei, Han Xueyao actually disagreed.

Because she knew that Hu Xiaobei didn’t like such fanfare.

But later, she couldn’t go against their wishes anymore, so she had to agree.

And so, she secretly joined them in building this square without Hu Xiaobei knowing...

Just as she was about to say something else, Han Xueyao saw Wu Yuanwei walking over.

...

"Xiaobei, now that the square is completed, why don’t you say a few words?"

Hearing Wu Yuanwei begin to speak, Hu Xiaobei’s mouth twitched slightly, "Do I... Do I really have to make a speech?"

Seeing Hu Xiaobei’s embarrassed look, Wu Yuanwei was speechless.

At that moment, Han Xueyao chuckled and said, "Oh, surely Master Xiaobei, who’s not afraid of anything, isn’t scared of speaking in front of so many people? If that’s the case, it would really affect your grand image."

Hearing Han Xueyao’s teasing, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his nose somewhat speechlessly.

In fact, Hu Xiaobei wasn’t genuinely afraid to speak in front of many people, but he felt that he and the villagers were like family, so there was no need for formalities.

Knowing what Hu Xiaobei was thinking, Han Xueyao said softly, "Come on, Xiaobei, all the family members are waiting, even if it’s just a few words, you should go and say something."

"Alright then!"

After agreeing, Hu Xiaobei walked out under everyone’s gaze.

"There are really a lot of people!"

Hu Xiaobei knew there would be a crowd, but when he actually saw that dense mass of people, he still couldn’t help but get startled...

"Master Xiaobei has arrived."

As Hu Xiaobei stood there, somewhat astonished, everyone around excitedly applauded and cheered...

This immediately livened up the whole square...

"Talk about respect!"

Muttering to himself, Hu Xiaobei looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, I really appreciate your gesture today, and I’m truly happy. Ever since I was little, I’ve been growing up in Big River Town and have a very deep affection for it, so I hope I can help make Big River Town a better place."

Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak, everyone quieted down.

They knew Hu Xiaobei was telling the truth because that’s exactly what he was doing.

After everyone had quieted down, Hu Xiaobei continued, "My memory of Big River Town is one of disrepair, with no paved roads in the entire town. Whenever the wind blew, dust would fill the air. When it rained, it was a muddy mess."

Hearing Hu Xiaobei mention the Big River Town of the past, everyone showed a look of reminiscence.

"But now, thanks to everyone’s collaborative efforts, Big River Town has improved a lot from before, and I believe it will get even better in the future."

With that, Hu Xiaobei paused for a moment.

Then, Hu Xiaobei loudly asked, "Would you all like to join me in building up Big River Town?"

"We would!"

Everyone loudly responded...

Seeing this scene, Hu Xiaobei smiled, and it was a very sweet smile...

Twenty minutes later, after seeing everyone off, Hu Xiaobei followed Wu Yuanwei to his office.

Glancing at the cactus next to the window, Hu Xiaobei asked curiously and softly, "Mayor Wu, did you want to see me about something?"

Hu Xiaobei knew that the town now had money, so it was also willing to invest.

"The next step is to figure out how to properly revamp the town’s school."

Education should not be neglected in poverty, and children should not suffer in hardship.

Hu Xiaobei knew the town’s school was quite dilapidated, so he planned to spend money to rebuild it properly.

"Don’t rush, wait until after dealing with Lin Yongqiang, then have a good discussion with the auntie about this."

After making this decision, Hu Xiaobei hummed a tune and headed back to the village.

...

In Wu Yuanwei’s office, he stood by the window, pondering...

He knew the policy regarding Xiaohe Village would soon be issued.

Which meant that Xiaohe Village would soon transform into a tourism area, and at that time, a leader for the tourism district would certainly be needed...

"If I maintain good relations with Hu Xiaobei, when the time comes, as long as Hu Xiaobei speaks well on my behalf, that leadership position in the tourism district should be mine!"

Thinking this excitedly, his phone rang...

After picking up, he realized it was a mayor from the neighboring Tiechuan Town...

Before, because Tiechuan Town had a better economy, he often took the initiative to make contact, hoping to form a partnership or something of the sort.

But each time, they were lukewarm to the idea...

But now, they were calling him first...

"Being held in such regard now, it’s all because of Hu Xiaobei. I absolutely can’t fall out with him, or else it would be suicidal!"

With this thought, he sat down and answered the phone with composure, and soon, a slightly ingratiating voice came through the receiver...
