Qingsu Town is a small coastal town. The townspeople are simple and down-to-earth, with more than 80% being fishermen.
But in this era, relying on selling fish is naturally not going to work out, so that on the road of common prosperity, Qing Su cant keep up with the pace and has fallen far behind.
Locals also have some young people with ideas, but either they dont want to return to this backward town after achieving success, or they are powerless.
It will take a lot of money and manpower to develop such a backward town.
Many investors come here, but most of them decide not to invest after inspecting. This coastal town has no cultural characteristics except for fish, how can it be revitalized?
There are also times when the brain is hot, in recent years, real estate was hot, and developers came to the local area to develop real estate, but the people here are poor, who can afford to buy it.
Jiang Yan didnt know why Ruan Jianglin suddenly became interested in investing here.
The local people were very enthusiastic and knew that Ruan Jianglin had come here to invest, they couldnt wait to worship him, their eyes were filled with expectation.
Jiang Yan thought, Ruan Jiang Lin is now their future money tree in their eyes, they are all scared of being poor.
In memory, Father was also a very poor teacher, not only poor, but also had too much kindness that he shouldnt have.
Their own families cant even afford to cook a meal, yet they have to spend money to take care of students. This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury for already impoverished families.
Heaven has given him a good life with benevolence to all living things, but it did not give him the ability to have pity on others.
Later he got cancer and Yang Sifang left him.
Although the town is poor, it has all the necessary facilities and equipment, and there will be no power outage.
They also arranged for Nguyen Giang Linh to stay in the best hotel in town, which is more like a beautifully decorated homestay than a hotel. Its probably owned by the richest family in town.
The evening wind blows from the sea, carrying a salty flavor of seaweed and a fresh sweetness, intertwined and messy, making people refreshing.
She and Ruan Jiang walked on the beach, she was barefoot, her delicate soles left footprints in the sand, some deep and some shallow, and some of the deeper footprints still had shells.
Ruan Jiang walked ahead, his undershirt blown up in the air, revealing glimpses of his chest and abdominal muscles, with Jiang Yans jacket still in his hand.
The wind blew up the scattered hair on his forehead, and his eyebrows were reflected in Jiangyans eyes, exceptionally clear.
She had a question she wanted to ask Ruan Jianglin, and this question had been on her mind for almost a day.
"Give you a chance, speak out and listen." His voice was somewhat low, dont know if its because he had been feeling unwell with a cold for the past two days.
"Youre not planning on investing, are you?" She stared straight at Ruan Jianglin without a hint of fear.
He looked at Jiang Yan, seeing her being depressed for an entire afternoon, and didnt expect that she would ask about this matter.
Jiang Yan followed his line of sight, the vast ocean stretched out before him, with only a third of the setting sun remaining, reflecting off the horizon, the sea surface was rippling and sparkling, radiating golden light.
"Want me to throw?" He turned around and looked at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan also didnt deny it: "Uh-huh."
Jiang Yan is someone who doesnt care about anything unrelated to her and always stays aloof, but she didnt know what was wrong with her today, she just wanted Ruan Jianglin to invest here.
Its probably because she still has a soft spot in her heart for this place, or maybe shes eager to get Ruan Jianglin to agree to something, to prove her own worth.
No matter what reason she is, she wants Ruan Jianglin to invest here.
"Jiang Yan, should I say youre foolish or clever?"
Being too clever can be a curse, and may even cost you your life.
Jiang Yan heard it and let out a snort of laughter.
Laughing at her, laughing at her foolishness, laughing at her being overly sentimental.
"Ruan Jianglin, come with me on a trip up the mountain tomorrow, consider it as payment for being my tour guide."
Jiang Yan felt embarrassed when she said this.
She didnt work as a tour guide and wasnt worthy of getting paid, because Ruan Jiangs accommodation and food for the past two days already cost more than what she, a poor student, could afford.
After a long time, the waves hit her legs again, mixed with sand, and her long skirt was wetted and stuck to her legs. The outline of her legs was faintly visible, and her fair skin could be vaguely seen.
"Hmm." He turned and left.
Jiang Yan stayed alone on the beach for a long time, watching the sun set little by little until it was completely gone.
Before she left, she picked up a lot of shells and snails on the beach. She wanted to find that old lady who sold necklaces on the street tomorrow and help her string them together.
Always feel like leaving some kind of memento.
But by nightfall, Jiang Yan thoroughly regretted it, she shouldnt have worn such a thin skirt on the beach for so long.
My leg was bitten by some unknown insect and its all red and swollen. Its been blowing wind for too long, Im probably going to have a fever.
She lay in bed for a long time, the air conditioner was still on and blowing cold air, she covered herself with the quilt and didnt want to get up.
She had been having a nightmare, in which a large wolf dog and a wild fox were chasing her and biting her. She kept running and felt extremely tired, with her mind all muddled.
She didnt know when she fell asleep, probably in the middle of the night. She was awakened by Ruan Jianglins voice beside her ear, his voice was like a cello, low and mellow: "Jiangyan, wake up."
He reached out and touched her forehead, scorching hot.
The auntie of the hotel said that she didnt eat a single bite of the meal sent in, and Ruan Jianglin happened to come visit her, but no one answered when he knocked on the door.
Someone took the room card and came in to see her curled up into a ball, covering herself with the quilt.
She had to forcibly pull open the quilt to see the person inside.
Her face was flushed, probably also born white, and her skin was delicate enough to see the small fluff on her face.
His eyelashes were long and curled, like a small fan sweeping across his palm, feeling a bit itchy.
Even when shes ill, shes still restless. Ruan Jianglin thinks that she should be tied up with a rope to get rid of her improper thoughts.
He called her twice, and Jiang Yan slowly opened his eyes, which seemed to be covered with a layer of gauze, looking at Ruan Jianglin as if he was wrapped in thick fog, and couldnt see clearly.
She was probably dreaming, so she recklessly and absent-mindedly pulled Ruan Jianglins hand to her face.
Ruan Jianglin felt like he was stuck to a hot stove, he had always liked the cold and now felt too hot and restless.
If it werent for her pitiful appearance as if she had fallen ill, Ruan Jianglin would have probably turned around and left.
She didnt refuse when she saw the man, and her courage grew bigger. She stuck herself to him, wrapping her arms around his strong waist, rubbing her face against his chest. She felt more comfortable this way, as he was very cool.
She just held him and kept rubbing against his chest, her hands unconsciously grasping his shoulders, her hair brushing against his chin.
He felt a bit itchy, and he grabbed her restless hand: "Stop messing around."
She muttered something, but Ruan Jianglin didnt quite catch it.
"Whats muttering?" He lifted her chin with one hand.
