the stunning beauty_2 633: Meeting 519 is not as good as not meeting the stunning beauty_2 Secretary Zhang had mentioned all these things, and Jiang Chen had naturally heard of them before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there was really no need to bring up these official policies at this time, and sure enough, Secretary Zhang soon revealed the meaning behind his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a gap between the funds earmarked from above and their pre-planned budget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t this the government’s business?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why don’t you go to the higher-ups for money?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Guangjiang couldn’t help but say, lacking in education and not understanding the art of beating around the bush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of embarrassment flashed across Secretary Zhang’s face, but he stopped short of speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the village secretary, he needed achievements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To ask for more money from above would be an admission of his insufficient capabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How big is the shortfall?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Peizhi asked, straightforward and to the point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not much, just one and a half million would be enough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang hurriedly replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One and a half million?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this figure, Lan’s mother’s face changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though her daughter was extraordinary now, as a genuine rural woman, a sum of one and a half million was enough to be a psychological shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Secretary Zhang, the government is planning, but you’re asking ordinary people to pay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That doesn’t make sense, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, Lan Lan has already contributed enough to the village.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister-in-law, you’ve misunderstood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m not asking Pei Zhi to pay, I’m asking her to invest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let me explain—it’s like our village government and Pei Zhi going into business together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, we’ll split the cooperative’s earnings proportionally…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen couldn’t hold back and let out a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which was caught by that youngster, Martial Saint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chen, what are you laughing at?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brat’s voice was not low, instantly drawing the attention of others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen quickly suppressed his smile, feeling a bit embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was he laughing at?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was at this one and a half million deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just found it amusing, that’s all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Peizhi had just wanted to sell the Afang Palace to him for fifteen billion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing everyone looking at him, Jiang Chen coughed lightly, “Secretary Zhang, I’ll invest this one and a half million on behalf of Miss Lan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for Lan Peizhi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Jiang Chen was even more certain that the Lan Family people, even these village cadres, probably had no clue just how extraordinary Lan Peizhi was today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They might think she had become wealthy, but had no idea to what extent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang, are you serious?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment of stunned silence, Secretary Zhang asked eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, his task was to secure funding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who provided the funds didn’t matter much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen quickly glanced at Lan Peizhi without giving anything away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that she did not seem displeased, he felt relieved and nodded to the village secretary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, contributing to rural development is a shared responsibility of all citizens.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look at that statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How noble and grand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang stood up excitedly, walked over, and gripped Jiang Chen’s hand firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang, on behalf of our village, I thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One and a half million was now a mere trifle to him, but for a rural area, it was indeed no small sum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen could understand the feelings of these grassroots officials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up, “You overstate my contribution, Secretary Zhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve simply done a bit of my part.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither servile nor overbearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither arrogant nor impatient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan’s mother watched, silently nodding to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wealthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steady in character.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good-looking too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In every aspect, faultless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing was his age…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that didn’t seem to matter too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the old saying goes, “If a woman is three years older, she brings gold bricks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to what her son once said, what was it called…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cougar love”?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having successfully secured the funds, Secretary Zhang was naturally very satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stayed for lunch at the Lan Family’s place before taking his leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, he warmly invited Jiang Chen and Lan Peizhi to visit the township government.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Secretary Zhang, I didn’t expect Miss Lan to be so beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought she was a celebrity,” said the young man driving for Secretary Zhang, who was quite young, just graduated a year ago, and had recently joined the village government.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>College graduates like him would usually rise through the ranks after a few years in the grassroots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t difficult for them to move to the city, but to rise further would depend on personal fortunes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Secretary Zhang himself greatly respected the educated, so he was particularly fond of this young man and often kept him close at hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Wang, I was right, wasn’t I?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang nodded in agreement, driving steadily, which matched his even-tempered personality, “Secretary Zhang, did Miss Lan really grow up here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s for sure,” he replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang leaned back in the seat, his face slightly flushed, squinting his eyes gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Wu fellow didn’t used to hold his liquor this well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Happiness indeed sharpens the spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having a fine daughter even improved his drinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pei Zhi has been beautiful since she was a child, and not only is she beautiful, but her acting was also exceptional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We all strongly advised her to pursue acting, but her father, that fellow, is too conservative, thinking a girl need not place too much importance on…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang’s face took on a nostalgic expression, cutting himself off mid-sentence, he sighed, “But life, really, is unpredictable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We all thought a dramatic talent was buried, yet look at her now, she turned out to be much more impressive than we originally thought.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What exactly does Miss Lan do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While driving, Little Wang looked back and asked, his curiosity about Lan Peizhi clearly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could such a memorable woman not arouse curiosity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know,” Secretary Zhang admitted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not to speak of me, I reckon even her old man wouldn’t have a clue.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That mysterious?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang chuckled, “It’s not about being mysterious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the point of knowing so much?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How high you stand dictates how far you see, the same way your ability determines how much you can handle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang seemed to understand, but not quite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ll understand in time,” Secretary Zhang reassured him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his hand on his knee, Secretary Zhang closed his eyes, his fingers tapping unconsciously on his knee, humming a tune from opera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the tune, it seemed like Huangmei Opera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang listened quietly for a while, and when the singing of the leader in the backseat subsided, he spoke up with a smile, “I think your singing isn’t bad either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Flattery will get you nowhere, you know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re new here, don’t let sycophancy corrupt you,” Secretary Zhang warned him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I’m speaking the truth,” Little Wang said earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang smiled, “Alright, less with the flattery in the future, I don’t fall for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m just interested, I enjoy listening to a few pieces for fun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of professionalism, I’m not even close to a child’s level.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you talking about Miss Lan in her childhood?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang looked into the rearview mirror above, thinking of the woman he found indescribable, and spoke spontaneously, “Hearing you say all this, I really feel quite regretful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang began to laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s just that you were born too late.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes,” Little Wang sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you really fallen for Pei Zhi?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I haven’t,” Little Wang quickly shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at you, denying it with a red face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no shame in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I were decades younger, I’d like her too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Secretary Zhang, you’re not acting your age,” Little Wang ventured a joke, boldened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang didn’t get angry but laughed, “What do you mean ‘not acting my age’?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m just speaking the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What man wouldn’t be moved by such a woman?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang didn’t reply, but in his heart, he couldn’t have agreed more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had met her only once, knew little about her, and hadn’t even managed to exchange words, he couldn’t restrain a sense of admiration for her from growing within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car suddenly fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang looked up instinctively, only to find in the rearview mirror that Secretary Zhang’s eyes were on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling guilty, he shifted his gaze away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The heart may flutter, but as a man, one must also understand choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Wang, the Pei Zhi of today is not a match for any ordinary man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, don’t set your heart on the impossible.” Secretary Zhang suddenly took on a serious tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Some people, just meeting them is fortune enough,” he said with gravity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Common sense tells us that in our youth, we shouldn’t meet someone too breathtaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, we’ll raise our standards, heighten our expectations, and thus, regrets become inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s better not to meet a beauty that could unsettle a city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man, just starting his career at the grassroots level, suppressed the melancholy in his heart and laughed, “Don’t worry, I understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secretary Zhang nodded in satisfaction and turned to look out the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rural scenery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was captivating.\u003C\u002Fp>",1571,"2026-05-30T15:07:30.255Z","2026-06-01T04:31:32.694Z",1,"novelbin.me","03d528658d07f94a4d9e335bdf9af527aaf194f2a06b453ce37729f3af0d42db","i-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-chapter-634","i-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-chapter-632",2400,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-cover.jpg"]
