Special forces soldier demobilization: Starting from the county government compound, a meteoric rise

The Qingyun County government is holding its most solemn, highest-level, and...dreamlike signing ceremony in its history in the county government's auditorium.

It was urgent because from the moment the mysterious "female god of wealth" stepped off her private jet to the moment she decided to invest, it took less than an hour.

It was described as a dream because all the officials from Qingyun County present still feel like they are in a dream.

The auditorium was covered with a red carpet and surrounded by flowers.

On the platform, a huge red banner, written in bold Song typeface, read: **"Warmly welcome Nangong Group to our county for investment and inspection."**

Below the stage, not only were all the well-known leaders of Qingyun County present, but also all those who could be called by name were there.

Even the city sent a vice mayor who rushed over overnight!

Even more outrageous, major mainstream media outlets from the province and city surrounded the entire signing area with their cameras and microphones, making it virtually impossible to move.

This kind of spectacle is something you only see a few times a year, let alone in Qingyun County or even Ningzhou City!

All of this was focused on the woman sitting in the very center of the signing area.

—Nangong Yao.

Nangong Group, current CEO.

This name might be unfamiliar to many people present.

But the name "Nangong Group" is widely known!

That's a true commercial behemoth, ranking among the top in the entire Jiangnan Province, and even the whole country! Its industries span real estate, finance, logistics, technology... with total assets in the hundreds of billions!

How could a business tycoon of this caliber suddenly become interested in Qingyun County, a godforsaken, impoverished county?

Everyone harbored the same question that puzzled them.

Until they saw that young man, who was also sitting at the signing table, but at the very back.

—Liu Ming.

He was also wearing a sharp suit today. Although it wasn't a designer brand, it looked exceptionally handsome on his model-like figure.

He didn't sit up straight like other leaders.

He simply leaned back in his chair casually, a faint smile playing on his lips.

He would occasionally exchange a few words with President Nangong, whose powerful aura made everyone feel oppressed. Their demeanor was so natural, as if they were having a casual chat.

Seeing this, everyone understood.

After all that fuss...

This great deity wasn't even here for Qingyun County.

They came here specifically for Liu Ming!

This young man's "billion-dollar pledge" was not just empty boasting.

He's fucking calling for reinforcements!

And, with one shake, he got... a royal flush!

The signing ceremony has officially begun.

County Magistrate Wen Boyan was so excited that his face turned red, and his hand holding the speech was trembling slightly.

He felt like he was dreaming.

Just a few days ago, he was so worried about the economy of Qingyun County that he couldn't sleep all night.

But now, a mountain of gold has fallen from the sky without any warning!

"...Now, let's give a warm round of applause to welcome Ms. Nangong Yao, President of the Nangong Group, to speak to us!"

Amid thunderous applause, Nangong Yao slowly stood up.

She walked to the podium, and her powerful aura instantly dominated the entire room.

All the spotlights were focused on her.

Good afternoon, distinguished leaders and guests.

Her voice was clear and melodious, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.

"I hereby announce that, after careful consideration by the board of directors of our Nangong Group, and based on... my old classmate Mr. Liu Ming and I's shared optimism about the future development potential of Qingyun County."

She deliberately emphasized the words "old classmate" and "shared optimism".

"We have decided to officially launch our strategic investment plan for Qingyun County."

coming!

The main event is coming!

Everyone held their breath, craned their necks, and waited for that number that would determine the future of Qingyun County!

Li Yuankui sat expressionless below the stage. But the slightly clenched fist on his knee betrayed his inner turmoil.

One billion...

Hmph, so what if you really do manage to bring in a billion?

This amount of money is just a drop in the ocean compared to the mess that is Qingyun County!

As long as I block your sand and gravel group's integration plan, you still won't be able to make it work!

He thought viciously to himself.

However, what Nangong Yao said the next second struck him like a thunderbolt!

"This strategic investment will be carried out in three phases."

Nangong Yao extended a slender finger, painted with delicate red nail polish.

"The initial investment we will make is not the **billion** that you've all heard about before."

She paused, then parted her red lips slightly and uttered a number that instantly plunged the entire auditorium into deathly silence.

"But... **fifty billion**!"

"boom--!!!"

Five billion!

This number was like a nuclear bomb, exploding in everyone's minds.

Everyone was stunned!

They all gaped, dumbfounded, feeling as if their hearts were about to jump out of their throats.

They already thought a billion was a pipe dream.

Now you're fucking telling me that you're investing 5 billion in the first phase?

This is fucking...

Is this a money-throwing spree?

County Magistrate Wen Boyan felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and almost fainted on the spot because happiness had come too suddenly!

Xi Wanqing also covered her mouth tightly with her hand, and for the first time, her cold eyes revealed an emotion called "shock"!

She looked at the man who remained calm amidst everyone's shock, as if he had known this outcome all along, and felt her heart become a complete mess.

Li Yuan-kui, sitting in the audience, was completely frozen in place.

He felt as if someone had smashed him hard on the top of his head with an invisible hammer.

Five billion...

This sum of money was enough to completely destroy the power base he had painstakingly built up in Qingyun County over the past twenty years.

However, this is not the end!

Nangong Yao's voice continued.

That sound was heavenly music to Wen Boyan and the others.

But for Li Yuan-Kui, it was... a death knell!

"This 5 billion will be primarily used for a comprehensive upgrade of Qingyun County's infrastructure, including the construction of a highway connecting to the provincial road and a modern integrated logistics center!"

Logistics center?

Upon hearing these four words, Li Yuankui could no longer sit still!

If the figure of "fifty billion" only made him feel threatened.

So, the words "logistics center" really struck a chord with him!

He knew very well that the reason why Qingyun County was poor and why he had such firm control over it was because it was **isolated**!

Because of isolation, information is not available and the economy is stagnant.

That's why he can be here and act as a local tyrant!

But once this modern logistics center is built and the highway is completed...

That means Qingyun County has had its Ren and Du meridians opened up!

At that time, capital, people, and information from outside will flow in continuously!

His outdated system of rule, maintained by personal connections and relationships, will be crushed under the iron heel of the market economy!

This is digging up his roots!

"Snap! Snap! Snap!"

The reporters in the audience had completely gone crazy!

The cameras in their hands flashed like machine guns, recording this historic moment!

Tomorrow! No! Tonight!

[Nangong Group invests 5 billion yuan to create an economic miracle in an impoverished county!]

[A mysterious high-achieving student attracts a former classmate who turns out to be a business tycoon!]

[Shocking! Qingyun County may become the next economic growth engine in Jiangnan Province!]

……

Headlines like these will surely spread throughout the entire Jiangnan Province!

on the rostrum.

The signing ceremony has officially begun.

Nangong Yao and Wen Boyan each signed their names on the contract.

Then, they exchanged contracts and shook hands.

The thunderous applause lasted for a long time.

In this ocean of celebration.

Only Li Yuankui sat in the audience, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

He forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace, and mechanically clapped along with the crowd.

But in his heart, it was bleeding.

He looked at the young man on the stage, surrounded by countless flashes of light, who seemed like a god descending to earth.

He knew that he had underestimated him from the very beginning.

They completely underestimated him!

This kid...

He's not some kind of outsider.

He's a fucking prehistoric crocodile that's coming to overthrow the entire Qingyun County!
