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

Chapter 130 The Pride of the Village!

Wang Fugui's smile grew even more obsequious: "Jiang Yang, you are the pride of our village! Our village hasn't produced such a promising college student in so many years!"

"Well, I heard you're running a factory out there and it's doing really well, so I thought I'd come and see if there's anything I can help you with?"

"It's such a great honor for our village to have a big boss like you!"

As he spoke, he ushered Jiang Yang into the house.

"Village chief, you're too kind!"

Jiang Yang didn't point it out, and went along with his words, saying, "This is just a small-scale operation, just starting out, I'm not a big boss yet."

"You're so busy with village affairs every day, yet you still think of me. I really feel bad about it."

When Wang Fugui saw that he wasn't responding, he became anxious.

He cleared his throat, put on a shameless act, and got straight to the point: "Jiang Yang, the main reason I came here this time is to ask you, since you've come back, have you... have you considered expanding the factory a bit more?"

Jiang Yang sneered inwardly.

This old fox has finally shown his true colors.

He feigned a puzzled look and asked, "Expand? Village Chief, what...do you mean by that?"

Seeing his expression, Wang Fugui became even more anxious and quickly waved his hand to explain, "Oh dear! Jiang Yang, don't misunderstand! Uncle didn't mean that!"

“Your factory is thriving now, and everyone in the village is envious! I was thinking that if you could expand the factory a bit more, wouldn’t that provide more job opportunities for the villagers?”

"As long as you can help, I promise I will fully support you!"

His heart was pounding like a drum.

If we can get in touch with Jiang Yang, this cash cow, then what will we have to worry about in the future?

The number of people trying to get into the factory through connections and gifts was enough to wear down his doorstep!

The key question is whether this kid actually intends to expand his business further!

Jiang Yang remained unhurried and spoke slowly and deliberately: "Village Chief, as you know, setting up a factory is no small matter, and expanding the scale requires even more caution."

"I haven't really thought about this carefully yet. I'll go back and discuss it properly with a few... well, a few professionals at the factory."

Upon hearing this, Wang Fugui wrung his hands anxiously, saying, "Oh dear! Jiang Yang! Don't give me that official talk!"

“We’re all from the same village, we see each other all the time, why can’t we just say what’s on our minds?”

"You have no idea how many people in the village are pulling strings to get jobs at your factory!"

“But your factory is only so big, and there are only so many spaces. It's really difficult for me, the village chief!”

"You know, they're all relatives and neighbors, I can't possibly favor one over the other, can I? They're all my flesh and blood, what am I supposed to do?"

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Jiang Yang out of the corner of his eye, observing his reaction.

Jiang Yang finally understood completely.

Wang Fugui was envious.

Seeing others making a fortune while he could only watch helplessly, he felt resentful.

So he thought he could use the village chief's position to get some benefits from him and create an opening.

Jiang Yang understood the situation, but his face remained expressionless. He simply said, "Oh, village chief, this matter has really troubled you."

"Here's what we'll do: if anyone comes to you about this again, just tell them to come directly to my parents. You don't need to bother them anymore."

"After the New Year, I plan to formalize the factory and set up a company. My parents will be in charge of the company, and they will be in charge of recruitment."

"Of course, we're all from the same village, so relatives and friends who apply will definitely be given priority. However, since it's a legitimate company, we have to follow the rules and go through the proper procedures, don't you think?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Fugui's smile froze instantly.

To set up a company?

And Jiang Dashan and Lin Xiulan were put in charge of recruitment?

This... this is tantamount to sidelining him!

He had originally hoped to make some money off of it, but now it seems that his wishful thinking is not going to work out!

He was seething with anger, but he couldn't let it out on the spot, so he could only force a smile that looked worse than a grimace.

"Oh, Jiang Yang, your idea is good, but... but your parents are getting old, they don't understand the ways of the company."

"How about this, you should let your uncle help you select some young, strong, and quick men from the village and send them to you first, so your parents won't have to worry. What do you say?"

Jiang Yang looked at his impatient appearance and sneered inwardly.

That old fox really won't give up until he's driven to desperation!

"Village chief, this matter is settled, so you don't need to worry about it."

"I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, Jiang Yang stood up and left without looking back.

Wang Fugui watched his departing figure, his teeth itching with anger.

Jiangyang is something else!

Now that they've grown up, they don't even respect him, the village chief!

Since this brat isn't letting him have an easy time, then he shouldn't expect to have an easy time either!

Thinking of this, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.

When Jiang Yang got home, he told his parents what he had just said to Wang Fugui.

After listening, Jiang Dashan frowned and looked at his son with a worried expression.

"Yangzi, if you say this to Wang Fugui, won't... won't you offend him?"

"He's the village chief after all. We'll still be living in the village, and we'll see each other all the time. If we offend him, I'm afraid..."

"Dad, don't worry. Do you think I don't know what Wang Fugui is up to? He just wants to make money off our family!"

Jiang Yang picked up the thermos and refilled his father's teacup with hot water.

“When we were poor, he took advantage of our misfortune a lot. Now that we're making money, he wants to get involved? Dream on!”

Jiang Dashan was still somewhat worried: "That's true, but after all..."

Lin Xiulan patted her husband's hand, interrupting him: "Dashan, Yangzi has her own ideas, so let's not worry about it."

Suddenly, a ringing sound broke the silence inside the room.

Jiang Yang took out his mobile phone from his pocket, glanced at the caller ID, and saw it was Chu Lan.

"Hey, Chu Lan, what's up?"

"Jiang Yang, good news! I've completed all the company registration procedures, and I've also contacted the construction team. They'll come over to do the renovations after the New Year." Chu Lan's voice was filled with excitement.

"That's great! Thank you for your hard work, Chu Lan." Jiang Yang couldn't help but smile.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yang told his parents the good news.

"Yangzi, you have a really good friend!" Jiang Dashan exclaimed sincerely.

"Yes, thanks to Chu Lan's help, we were able to make it so smooth." Lin Xiulan echoed.

The family of three all had happy smiles on their faces.
