After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 869 Difficulties Encountered in Developing the Mountain
When Xu Bo'an and his group passed by the principal's office, Principal Zheng Ruisen even wanted to invite them to sit in his office for a while.
Xu Bo'an declined, saying he had other things to do. Principal Zheng knew Xu Bo'an was a very busy person, so he didn't try to stop him. After Principal Zheng accompanied Xu Bo'an and Ma Lu to take Ma Shiyao back to her class, Xu Bo'an and Ma Lu said goodbye to the principal and then left.
Walking along the road, Ma Lu said to Xu Bo'an, "Thank you so much for today. I think after this incident, Panpan will definitely not be bullied by other children at school anymore! By the way, how did you meet Principal Zheng here?"
Xu Bo'an said to Ma Lu, "We met at a dinner party by chance. To be honest, I didn't know at first that the principal here was him. If I had known earlier, I would have asked him to take care of our Panpan. If I had, this wouldn't have happened, and our lovely little Panpan wouldn't have suffered so much at school!"
Ma Lu said to Xu Bo'an, "Hey, this is also my fault. Xin Yi is pregnant and it's been very hard for her lately. Sometimes she inevitably lacks energy and didn't communicate with Panpan in time. If I had paid more attention, Panpan wouldn't have suffered at school!"
Xu Bo'an said to Ma Lu, "Don't blame yourself. I've seen how good you two are to Panpan. You're even closer to her than your own daughter. It's because Panpan grew up in an orphanage and is used to being independent. She didn't want you to worry about her, so she didn't want to tell you these things, afraid of adding to your burden."
Ma Lu said, "Yes, every day when Panpan comes home, she tells us about the happy things that happened at school. She never mentions anything that made her unhappy. This child is so sensible that it breaks our hearts!"
Xu Bo'an said, "Ultimately, it's because this child lacked a sense of security since she was young. But since you two love her so much, once she feels the warmth of family over time, she won't have these thoughts anymore!"
Ma Lu said, "Yeah, and your godfather too. He looked so cool standing up for her at school today. Panpan will definitely be able to walk around school with her head held high from now on! No one will dare to bully her!"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said to Ma Lu, "Look at you. Panpan is such a sensible child, she wouldn't take advantage of my relationship to act recklessly. You should learn from Panpan in this respect!"
Ma Lu chuckled and teased Xu Bo'an, saying, "With such a capable brother, I have to walk sideways like a crab, otherwise I'll waste our relationship, haha..."
As Ma Lu spoke, he made a sideways walking gesture. Xu Bo'an couldn't help but laugh when he saw it and said to Ma Lu, "Then you can walk like this from now on!"
Xu Bo'an and Ma Lu chatted as they walked out of the school gate. It was now noon, and Ma Lu said to Xu Bo'an, "You've been busy with me all morning, let's go have lunch together!"
Xu Bo'an said, "It's only right that I help my goddaughter resolve this matter, but since you've invited me to dinner, I won't stand on ceremony! I'll make sure you get a good meal!"
Ma Lu said, "Anyone I can afford is welcome!"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said to Ma Lu, "Then I won't stand on ceremony. Get ready to bleed a lot later!"
Ma Lu smiled and said, "No problem!"
Xu Bo'an was just joking with Ma Lu. He knew Ma Lu was under a lot of pressure, so how could he let Ma Lu spend a lot of money to treat him to a meal? Xu Bo'an saw a small restaurant by the roadside near the school and led Ma Lu inside.
Ma Lu looked at Xu Bo'an with great confusion and said, "No, brother, you mean I have to spend a lot of money to come to a place like this? This little restaurant can't even cost the two of us a hundred yuan at most!"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said to Ma Lu, "I only told you to treat me to a big meal because we were just arguing. You're my brother, how could I bear to cheat you? Besides, you have to go to work soon, and a big meal would be too much of a waste of time. Let's just grab a quick bite here, and I'll take you home later!"
Ma Lu was quite touched by Xu Bo'an's words. He knew that Xu Bo'an was doing this to save him money, so Ma Lu didn't beat around the bush and said, "Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony with you!"
After the two had a simple lunch at the restaurant, Xu Bo'an walked Ma Lu to the gate of Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory and then went home.
Today, going to the school with Ma Lu to deal with Ma Shiyao's matter gave Xu Bo'an a new idea for his business: with the continuous expansion of his pharmaceutical factory and the increase in the number of employees, although their housing problem has been solved, could the problem of children's schooling also be solved at the same time?
Xu Bo'an thought he could directly establish a school for employees of Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory, but this was a huge undertaking. Ideas are one thing, but putting them into practice was not so simple.
Such an idea only flashed through Xu Bo'an's mind for a moment, and whether it would be implemented in the future depended on chance.
Xu Bo'an simply stopped thinking about it and went to bed for a midday nap.
After sleeping for about an hour, Xu Bo'an's phone rang. Still half asleep, Xu Bo'an picked up his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and saw that the person calling him was the construction team from Jiangcheng City who had helped him build the mountain he had contracted in Jiangcheng.
Xu Bo'an answered the phone and heard the person on the other end say politely, "Hello, is this Mr. Xu Bo'an?"
Xu Bo'an said, "Yes, it is. What's wrong?"
The foreman on the other end of the phone said, "Mr. Xu, we've already started construction these past few days, but this afternoon, just as we were about to begin, a group of villagers surrounded us, saying that their ancestral graves are on this hill. A large group of them blocked us and wouldn't let us start construction no matter what. I tried to persuade them for a long time, but it was no use. What do you think we should do about this?"
Before construction started, no one caused trouble, but now that construction has just begun, villagers have come looking for them. Xu Bo'an understands that these people just want some money!
Xu Bo'an said to the head of the construction team, "Then just tell them that anyone with ancestral graves in that area should be compensated!" The head of the construction team on the other end of the phone said, "I did, but there are too many people involved. Some of them are asking for an exorbitant amount, while others say they won't move their ancestral graves even if they are paid. It's impossible to please everyone!"
When faced with such a problem, most people would be satisfied with just monetary compensation. However, a small number of people who are superstitious, believe in feng shui, or have a special attachment to the area would certainly not want the work to be altered. Xu Bo'an could understand this, but he didn't expect to encounter problems so soon after construction had only been underway for a few days.
He had only just returned from Jiangcheng a few days ago, and now he had to go back again? But he couldn't ignore such a troublesome situation. Xu Bo'an couldn't think of a suitable solution for this thorny problem, so he said to the person in charge of the construction team on the other end of the phone, "In that case, don't start work for the next couple of days. Take a break, and I'll let you know after I've resolved this matter!"
The foreman on the other end of the phone said, "Okay, Mr. Xu, that's settled then! Bye!"
After hanging up the phone with the person in charge of the construction team, Xu Bo'an thought about the matter for a while, but he couldn't come up with a solution. It seemed that he would have to go to Jiangcheng himself, but he had only been back for two days and really didn't want to go.
I have quite a few rich second-generation followers in Jiangcheng. Could I ask them to help me solve this problem? This construction team is using a company that has close cooperation with Qu Feifan's family.
Why not just ask Qu Feifan to help resolve this matter? With that thought, Xu Bo'an took out his phone and opened his call log, preparing to call Qu Feifan. When he saw Zhang Kai in the call log, Xu Bo'an's eyes lit up. Wasn't Zhang Kai from that village? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to let Zhang Kai handle this matter?
Zhang Kai is a businessman, and he's naturally eloquent. It's much easier for him to persuade the villagers than to go there in person to resolve the matter.
Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an directly called Zhang Kai, who owned a horse farm. A moment later, Zhang Kai answered the phone and said with a smile, "It's Mr. Xu. What can I do for you?"
Xu Bo'an said, "You're absolutely right. I do have something to ask you about. I'm planning to develop that hilltop I own in the suburbs, but after only two days of construction, the villagers started making a fuss. They say their ancestral graves are on that hilltop, and a large group of villagers are blocking the construction. You know I only just got back from Jiangcheng a couple of days ago, and I'm too lazy to go back. Since you're from this village, I thought I'd ask you to help me resolve this. Do you think that's a good idea?"
Zhang Kai has been in contact with Xu Bo'an for some time now, and he has witnessed Xu Bo'an's prowess more than once. Moreover, Xu Bo'an's top-quality Akhal-Teke horse is currently being cared for by Zhang Kai, bringing many new customers to Zhang Kai's racetrack. Thanks to the Akhal-Teke horse, Zhang Kai's business is booming.
So when Zhang Kai heard Xu Bo'an's words, he didn't even think twice and said to Xu Bo'an on the other end of the phone, "No problem, Brother Xu, I'll take care of this little thing for you!"
Xu Bo'an said, "Then I'll transfer the money to you later. You can handle it as you see fit! Thanks!"
After hearing Xu Bo'an's words, Zhang Kai said, "Brother Xu, it's my honor to help you. Do you need to be so polite with me? You don't need to send me money first. We can talk about the money after I've dealt with this matter. Don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter for you as soon as possible!"
After chatting for a few more minutes, the two hung up the phone.
Although Zhang Kai told Xu Bo'an not to rush to transfer the money, since he had asked for help, Xu Bo'an felt it was more reasonable to transfer the money first, so that the other party would have a clear understanding of the situation and be able to handle things more effectively, right?
Moreover, although Zhang Kai's business was doing well, Xu Bo'an also knew that most of the money of businessmen was invested in business, and the amount of money they actually held in their own hands was not much.
Solving the problem of so many villagers' ancestral graves would definitely require a lot of money. Xu Bo'an was afraid that Zhang Kai wouldn't be able to come up with the money in a short time, which would be putting Zhang Kai in a difficult position. Besides, he wasn't short of money, so he might as well transfer the money to Zhang Kai as soon as possible.
Thinking that Zhang Kai's village wasn't very big and shouldn't require too much money, Xu Bo'an opened his phone and transferred 50 million yuan to Zhang Kai directly through the mobile banking app. He then sent Zhang Kai a message saying, "Take this money and use it to solve the villagers' problems. If it's not enough, I'll transfer more to you!"
Although Zhang Kai had politely told Xu Bo'an on the phone that he didn't need to transfer money, he replied, "This much money is enough to build our entire village. It's more than enough to handle this small matter. You don't need to worry about it. I'll let you know as soon as I've resolved it!"
Xu Bo'an was relieved after reading Zhang Kai's message. Indeed, having many friends makes life easier. This saying is true. When he encountered such a problem, he didn't need to solve it himself; there were plenty of people who would happily help him.
After replying to Xu Bo'an's message, Zhang Kai immediately drove towards their hometown village.
After being woken up, Xu Bo'an couldn't fall back asleep. With nothing else to do, he focused his attention on the area above Kaoshan Village in the Bonsai World. He saw that the adults and children of Kaoshan Village were gathered together, learning agricultural knowledge from Li Qingjiang.
Li Qingjiang has a very strong learning ability. Xu Bo'an had given him many books on military strategy, which he had studied thoroughly and was only lacking in practical application. He had also studied the agricultural books that Xu Bo'an had given him recently. Now, combined with the videos that Xu Bo'an had given him, he was learning while showing the videos to everyone and answering their questions.
The kids were studying very diligently, and every now and then one of them would ask Li Qingjiang a question they didn't understand.
Learning knowledge is the foundation of all practice. Only by mastering basic knowledge can we better put it into practice and continuously accumulate experience from practice.
Looking at the earnest expressions of these little ones, Xu Bo'an felt quite gratified. Once they had learned most of the agricultural knowledge, he could let them start putting it into practice.
Xu Bo'an originally wanted to ask the children about their learning progress, but seeing how hard they were working, he couldn't bear to disturb them. He decided to ask Li Qingjiang about it later that evening. (End of Chapter)
