"Wait, what’s going on?"
Liu Bowen was still looking dazed as he was pulled onto the sofa.
Just then, Hu Dawei also snapped out of it. He brought the two of them together and made an introduction.
When he learned that Wang Hong was from the Cyan Mountain Town Tourism Office, a vague idea began to form in Liu Bowen’s mind.
Liu Bowen was well aware of his current situation.
Thanks to the photos of Cyan Mountain Town’s scenery, Liu Bowen had already gained a massive amount of online traffic the day before.
He knew very well that while he was gaining so much traffic, Cyan Mountain Town would also reap the benefits.
The fact that the town would start developing tourism didn’t surprise Liu Bowen in the slightest.
Wang Hong smiled and greeted Liu Bowen.
"Hello, Mr. Liu. I’m here today on behalf of the tourism office. I’d like to discuss a few things with you in detail."
Wang Hong’s voice broke Liu Bowen’s train of thought.
After all, Wang Hong was an official government representative.
Besides, Liu Bowen knew that whatever the officials wanted to discuss with him was unlikely to be anything bad.
So, he readily agreed to Wang Hong’s invitation.
"Then it’s settled. We hope you can be at the administrative hall tomorrow at nine in the morning, Mr. Liu. We’ll discuss the details then!"
Wang Hong’s expression grew more and more cheerful.
He had been running around from morning till night, only finding Liu Bowen now that the sun had completely set.
But looking at Liu Bowen’s attitude, he seemed like someone who would be easy to work with.
This meant Wang Hong’s work for the day was successfully completed.
"Don’t worry, I’ll be there on time tomorrow. We can talk about the specifics then!"
Liu Bowen glanced at the time. It was already past seven in the evening.
It really was getting late.
Wang Hong had a pleased look on his face as he left.
After Wang Hong was gone, Hu Dawei immediately pulled Liu Bowen down to sit on the sofa:
"You probably know what they want to see you about, right?"
Hu Dawei asked with a mysterious expression.
Liu Bowen took a sip of water before slowly saying, "Of course I know what it’s about. The moment he said he was from the tourism office, I figured it out."
Hu Dawei slapped his thigh. "If Cyan Mountain Town really gets into tourism and manages to develop, it’ll be a great thing for us too!"
Just as he said that, he saw his father, Hu Zhanyong, walk out leaning on a crutch.
Hu Zhanyong was preparing for surgery and had been applying some medicine to his leg recently.
The doctor had instructed Hu Zhanyong to use his knee as little as possible.
That was why Hu Zhanyong was now trying his best to walk with the help of a crutch.
Hu Zhanyong came out and said cheerfully, "Have you two kids eaten?"
"What are you talking about over here? You seem so fired up."
Hu Dawei was currently thrilled about the news of the town developing tourism.
So he went ahead and shared the news with his father.
"We’ve already eaten. Dad, you probably don’t know, but Cyan Mountain Town is going to develop tourism!"
Hu Zhanyong didn’t go online often, so naturally, he had no idea how popular Cyan Mountain Town had become on the internet.
He said with a worried look, "Developing tourism? That’s not an easy thing to do!"
"Don’t you go believing every little rumor you hear!"
Hu Dawei and Liu Bowen knew more about the situation, so the two of them carefully explained it to the old man, Hu Zhanyong.
"Something this good is happening?"
"Does that mean it’s been decided what they’re going to do with that plot of land?"
Hu Zhanyong had grasped the key point.
For ordinary folk like them, it didn’t matter what policies the higher-ups made.
What everyone cared about most was what kind of commercial district would be built on that plot of land Lin Feng owned.
A commercial district like that meant there would be jobs available for everyone.
And having jobs meant they could earn money!
That was what mattered most to the average person.
Regarding the matter of Lin Feng’s land, Wang Hong had only mentioned it cryptically.
He hadn’t said anything definite.
After all, Lin Feng’s stance still needed to be negotiated by the government officials themselves.
It certainly wasn’t something that could be decided by Wang Hong, a low-level employee.
Hu Dawei also sensed that Wang Hong’s attitude on the matter wasn’t particularly clear.
However, Hu Dawei had his own interpretation.
"If Cyan Mountain Town’s tourism business really takes off, any boss with a bit of sense would make the same choice!"
Liu Bowen and Hu Zhanyong thought about it and realized that was indeed the case.
As long as tourism in Cyan Mountain Town could get off the ground.
Building a commercial district on that plot of land would be far more profitable than building a factory.
Plus, it would provide more jobs!
「Meanwhile.」
Lin Feng, the subject of their discussion, was carefully studying the proposal.
Tian Xiaowu had been poring over relevant professional books lately.
Combined with his natural talent and creative spark, he was truly gifted.
There were no major issues with the regional planning and design aspects that Tian Xiaowu was responsible for.
In fact, some of his ideas were exceptionally unique.
The other members of the team greatly admired some of his designs in this area.
The members of the team Lin Feng had assembled each had their own distinct strengths.
While Cao Ming couldn’t contribute much to the design side, he was incredibly insightful when it came to business models and predicting future trends in economic growth.
Du Hai, on the other hand, was excellent at bringing out everyone’s strengths.
Lin Feng observed from the side.
He realized that although the team wasn’t quite complete, it had already taken shape.
Though everyone was a little out of sync at first, after a short breaking-in period, they had now become very familiar with each other.
Lin Feng had originally thought it would take at least two more days to finalize things.
But as the light of dawn shone into the office, the plan was finalized.
Tian Xiaowu let out a long sigh of relief.
Back when he was laying bricks on construction sites, he had always thought that was the most tiring job in the world.
Now, while struggling with this project proposal, Tian Xiaowu realized for the first time that mental work could be exceptionally physically exhausting too.
It was no less tiring than laying bricks.
But this was work that Tian Xiaowu was passionate about.
The feeling of having a plan he’d proposed be approved was simply incredible.
The sense of spiritual satisfaction swept away his physical fatigue.
After the sun had fully risen, everyone stretched in unison.
They exchanged glances, and satisfied smiles appeared on their faces.
"Excellent. Now that our plan is set, you could say all is ready except for the east wind."
A smile played on Lin Feng’s lips.
Tian Xiaowu asked in confusion, "What east wind? Does our plan still need changes?"
Lin Feng chuckled and shook his head. "The east wind I’m talking about isn’t our plan, but some external factors. You all get some rest."
"Consider this a paid vacation. Your salaries will be paid as usual!"
Hearing this, the three of them cheered.
Who wouldn’t be happy about the amazing perk of a paid vacation?
But even as they rested, they couldn’t help but wonder what exactly Lin Feng’s "east wind" was.
Lin Feng’s east wind didn’t keep them waiting for long.
At a little after nine in the morning, Lin Feng’s personal phone rang.
