Reborn in 79, the educated youth wife regretted her divorce.

Chapter 131 Going home for the New Year

Time flies, and the New Year is here in the blink of an eye.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Jiang Yang was in the yard with his parents, enjoying the sun, when he heard a clear shout from outside the door.

"Brother Jiang Yang!"

Jiang Yang looked up and saw Li Wen wearing a red down jacket running towards him.

Li Wen ran up to Jiang Yang and hugged him tightly: "Brother Jiang Yang, I missed you so much!"

Jiang Yang gently patted her back and asked with a smile, "How's it going? Have your exam results come out yet?"

Li Wen lifted her head from his embrace and said somewhat shyly, "We're still compiling the statistics, but it should be fine."

"That's good. I'll help you contact the school then," Jiang Yang said gently.

A happy smile spread across Li Wen's face, then she remembered something and said, "Brother Jiang Yang, your entrepreneurial venture these past few months has spread throughout the county. My dad even said he wants you to speak at the conference and set an example for college students starting their own businesses!"

Jiang Yang waved his hand modestly: "It's not that exaggerated, I was just lucky."

At this moment, Lin Xiulan came over and greeted her warmly, "Xiaowen, come in, come in and sit down. Stay for dinner!"

Li Wen shook her head and said with some regret, "Auntie, I won't bother you any longer. My dad is still waiting in the car at the village entrance. We still have to go to other places to pay New Year's visits."

"Only you would dare to leave Director Li waiting at the village entrance," Jiang Yang joked with a smile.

Li Wen playfully stuck out her tongue: "You know my dad, he just loves to chat with the villagers."

Jiang Yang smiled slightly: "Dad, Mom, I'll take Li Wen there."

"Go ahead, be careful on the road," Lin Xiulan said with a smile.

Jiang Yang and Li Wen walked out of the courtyard side by side and headed towards the village entrance.

When they arrived at the village entrance, they saw Li Taizheng chatting enthusiastically with Wang Fugui and Wang Desheng.

"Director Li, Village Chief Wang, Party Secretary Wang," Jiang Yang greeted them.

The three turned around at the sound and smiled when they saw Jiang Yang and Li Wen.

"Jiang Yang is here! This girl must be Director Li's daughter, she's really beautiful!" Wang Fugui said with a smile.

Wang Desheng chimed in, "Yes, they're a perfect match, a match made in heaven!"

Jiang Yang ignored the two men and said apologetically, "Director Li, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting at the village entrance."

"Oh, not at all. It's only because Jiang Yang has such a big reputation that I wouldn't have parked here," Li Tai laughed.

"Director Li is too kind. I didn't expect you to be waiting at the door. Otherwise, I would have invited you in for a drink of water to warm yourself up."

Wang Fugui and Wang Desheng quickly chimed in, "That's right, Director Li, please come in and have a seat."

Li Tai waved his hand: "No need, I have something to do, I'll be going now."

He turned to look at Li Wen, "Are you satisfied now?"

Li Wen blushed and said coquettishly, "Dad, what are you saying!"

Li Tai smiled, said nothing more, and turned to get into the car.

Li Wen waved to Jiang Yang: "Brother Jiang Yang, I'll definitely come visit you when I'm free after my exams!"

Jiang Yang smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

He watched Li Tai's car disappear from sight before turning around to look at the two village officials.

"Village Chief Wang, Party Secretary Wang, what brings you here..."

"The bureau chief is here, we have to come and greet him, right?" Wang Desheng said with a laugh.

"Jiang Yang, you are still young and your social experience is still too shallow."

"Social experience can't be gained just by talking," Jiang Yang said with a faint smile.

“Secretary Wang, you have a lot of experience, but that doesn’t mean you’ve become rich.”

Wang Desheng's face stiffened.

This kid actually dared to talk back to him!

Jiang Yang ignored them and turned to leave.

"This brat! He's gone too far! How dare he talk to his elders like that!" Wang Desheng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

Wang Fugui squinted and said meaningfully, "He's still young and hasn't experienced setbacks. He'll know to be more restrained once he suffers a setback."

He was already plotting how to cause Jiang Yang some trouble.

When Jiang Yang returned home, he briefly taught his parents some management methods used in businesses.

"Dad, Mom, managing a business is like farming; you have to plan ahead. Which plots to plant what, which plots to fertilize, and which plots to weed..."

Lin Xiulan listened attentively, nodding occasionally: "Yangyang, what you're saying really sounds like how we farm."

Jiang Dashan listened with great interest, occasionally interjecting with a question: "What if there's an insect plague or drought?"

“That’s risk management, Dad. We need to prepare in advance, such as planting more varieties of crops. If a drought comes, we’ll plant more drought-resistant ones, and if an insect infestation comes, we’ll take preventative measures in advance…” Jiang Yang explained patiently.

His parents have a strong learning ability and can grasp things quickly, which makes him very happy.

A few days later, the tranquility of the village was broken by the sputtering sound of a motorcycle.

"Is Brother Jiang Yang home?" A gruff voice rang out from outside the courtyard.

When Jiang Yang went outside, he saw a burly man in a leather jacket standing at the door. It was the contractor he had contacted earlier.

"Brother Wang, you're here so early? I thought it wouldn't be until after the fifteenth." Jiang Yang greeted him with a smile.

"Brother, you've offered a high price. Everyone's itching to stay home. The sooner we get to work, the sooner we can finish, and the sooner we can go home for the New Year," the contractor said with a hearty laugh.

Jiang Yang smiled slightly: "Let's not delay, let's go and take a look at the factory."

He then led the contractor to the site of the future factory.

"Brother Wang, look, I don't have high requirements, just a sturdy and durable factory building. Remember, you must use good materials and ensure the safety of the workers."

Jiang Yang pointed to an open space and said earnestly.

The foreman patted his chest and assured him, "Brother Jiangyang, don't worry. Although we want to make money, we're not going to risk our lives. Safety will definitely be our top priority."

He paused, then added, "With overtime work, this kind of small factory can finish in about a month."

Jiang Yang nodded in satisfaction: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Wang."

Unbeknownst to him, Wang Fugui was hiding behind a large tree in the distance, squinting at the construction site with a sinister smile on his lips.

The news that Jiangyang's factory had officially started operations spread like wildfire throughout the entire village.

Everyone in the village knows that Jiangyang is going to build a factory, and the village will have a proper enterprise in the future.

The next day, Jiang Yang's house became lively.

Many villagers came to Jiang Yang's door, hoping he could arrange jobs for them.

"Jiang Yang, my child just graduated. Do you think he could find a job at your factory?"

"Jiang Yang, my nephew is strong and hardworking. How about letting him work as a porter in your factory?"

……

Jiang Yang was surrounded by villagers and could only patiently explain, "Uncles and aunts, please don't worry, the factory is still under construction. Once it's finished, I will definitely give priority to people from our village."
