Chapter 33 Completion Celebration

Two days later, Qian Xiaoxing came to the riverside. It turned out that a row of tyrants on the river dam had been removed. The inclined surface of the river embankment had been made of bluestone and the holes were blocked with cement, which was flat and firm. The river embankment was nearly two meters higher than the original one. No matter how heavy the flood in the rainy season was, it could not be filled.

Qian Xiaoxing was walking on the flat river bank, and rows of small trees had been planted next to it. In the future, this place would become a tree-lined path. A small dam had been built in the river in the distance. After the river water was blocked, it flowed out into a gap. Under the gap, a water truck was rotating rapidly, pouring out the water bucket by bucket into the ditches outside.

The three sides of the ditch are made of cement, which is smooth and flat, and the water flows happily in the ditch and flows into the distance.

"Mr. Qian is here!" The villagers are still used to calling him Mr. Qian. Only employees in Qian's Group Company call him Mr. Qian.

Qian Xiaoxing was very excited when he saw the villagers experimenting with the water truck. He saw the water rolling towards the farmland. Water is indispensable for the farmland. Now he no longer has to worry about irrigation, so everyone is naturally very happy.

Uncle Xu also came over and said, "Dr. Qian, this water truck can operate normally. In the future, villagers will no longer have to carry water. This canal is already covered with fields, ensuring that water can be irrigated in the farthest fields."

Qian Xiaoxing nodded satisfied after hearing this and asked again: "How is the celebration preparation?"

"All items have been purchased. A total of 50 fat sheep were bought, countless chickens, ducks, fish and meat, and of course rice wine, which is guaranteed to make everyone enjoy their meals." Uncle Xu said happily.

"Very good, where is the party tonight?" Qian Xiaoxing asked again.

"It has been implemented, and there are more than 20 programs in total. At that time, please ask Mr. Qian to watch it and give everyone a score." Uncle Xu replied.

"Of course I have to go and see it, but it will be fair to call a few more judges. The celebration will start at noon." Qian Xiaoxing replied.

"Okay, I'll do it now." Uncle Xu retreated.

At noon, next to the river bank, there were dense crowds of people. Almost all men, women, young and old in the village came here and were chatting happily with each other. A banner was pulled on the river bank, which read "The completion ceremony of the Yingwang Village River Bank".

Uncle Xu saw that the staff had almost arrived, so he climbed onto the river bank and held a big horn in his hand. This was temporarily made by Qian Xiaoxing for the celebration.

Uncle Xu shouted to the loudspeaker: "Everyone, be quiet!" Suddenly, the crowd under the river bank gradually became less and less loud until there were no sounds.

Uncle Xu continued to shout: "Friends, the wish of Yingwang Village's ancestors for generations is to build the river embankment, and it has finally been completed in our generation. This is a time worth celebrating."

The villagers immediately applauded and sounded. Uncle Xu signaled, and everyone stopped to applaud and continued, "I think everyone knows that the river embankment was successfully built this time, because the intra-city general manager of our country and the leader of the Qian Group, the General Manager Qian donated money to build it. Please ask General Manager Qian to say a few words to us!"

Uncle Xu enthusiastically invited Qian Xiaoxing to the river bank and handed the loudspeaker to Qian Xiaoxing. Then he clapped and immediately the audience applauded. Qian Xiaoxing picked up the loudspeaker and looked at the crowded people below the court, and he was still a little worried. After calming his mind, he shouted: "Friends!"

The off-field suddenly became quiet, and Qian Xiaoxing continued: "Friends, first of all, I want to express my gratitude to every fellow villager in Yingwang Village on behalf of the State of Si. You contributed the most taxes in the State of Si. There are also many veterans in the village. It is your blood that protects the State of Si. You are the ones I respect the most."

Then there was a thunderous applause from the audience. Qian Xiaoxing signaled everyone to stop with his hand and continued: "This time, I feel very honored to be able to help everyone build the embankment. Everyone also worked very hard to complete the embankment. Thank you all for your hard work!"

After a burst of applause, Qian Xiaoxing continued: "The Yingwang Village I saw is a united village. I also have the confidence to build Yingwang Village into the richest village in the world. I hope everyone will work with me, and more and more Yingwang villages will appear in our Si State. At that time, the Si State will become stronger and stronger. One day, we will not be bullied by the great powers."

Qian Xiaoxing's passionate speech made the people in the audience nod and excited. Some villagers had already wiped their tears quietly. These tears were tears of happiness and joy.

Si Yingying was listening to Qian Xiaoxing's speech, but she didn't expect Qian Xiaoxing to be good at saying this. These words were really sensational, and Si Yingying's eyes began to turn red when she heard them.

Qian Xiaoxing saw Si Yingying and continued, "Next, let's ask Princess Yingying to say a few words to us."

Si Yingying was pulled to the river bank by Qian Xiaoxing and picked up the loudspeaker helplessly. Although the people in the field knew each other, they were really stressed when they looked over so many eyes. Si Yingying glanced at Qian Xiaoxing and cursed her to pull her up. However, she still shouted to the loudspeaker: "The villagers all know that Mr. Qian has too much credit for his affairs in Shandu. I can't count it. I also believe that with the help of Mr. Qian, the villagers' lives will get better and better. The others have been told by Mr. Qian, so I won't say anything."

Si Yingying then handed the speaker to Uncle Xu. After Uncle Xu used his eyes to obtain Qian Xiaoxing's consent, he shouted to the speaker: "The celebration begins!"

Suddenly, the gongs and drums on the river bank started to beat loudly. On the other side of the river bank, there were already several rows of tables filled with food. The villagers rushed to the drying bank.

Si Yingying looked at the people and said, "If my father could see such a scene, he would be very happy."

"Then pick him up, it's not very far anyway." Qian Xiaoxing replied.

"Yeah, I want to make my father feel relieved. My father has grown much older over the years." Si Yingying then called Lu Shengzhong, gave a few instructions, and Lu Shengzhong retreated.

"Let's go eat too!" Si Yingying pulled Qian Xiaoxing and walked into the drying yard hand in hand. A stage had been built next to the drying yard, which must be used for evening parties.

Uncle Xu brought everyone to a table, which was reserved specifically for Qian Xiaoxing and others. Qian Xiaoxing saw that the table was filled with various meat dishes, so he was not polite, so he picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

The villagers around were eating happily, mouthfuls filled with oil. For them, they hadn't eaten meat for a long time. The villagers ate large pieces of meat and drank large mouthfuls, and were completely immersed in the festive atmosphere.

Qian Xiaoxing was eating, and four factory managers came over with wine glasses, toasted Qian Xiaoxing one after another, and poured Qian Xiaoxing several glasses of wine.

Then Uncle Xu rushed to the villagers toast Qian Xiaoxing. Everyone stood up, raised their glasses to Qian Xiaoxing, and shouted: "To Mr. Qian!"

After watching everyone finish drinking, Qian Xiaoxing happily raised his glass and sipped it out, shouting: "Eat well, drink well!"

Si Yingying also raised her wine glass and said to Qian Xiaoxing: "Mr. Qian, thank you for doing so much for the people of Si State. I respect you."

Qian Xiaoxing raised his glass and smiled, "Why do you want to get me drunk? After I get drunk, I will do something I shouldn't do to you. Don't blame me."

"You have a lot of ideas, drink it quickly." Si Yingying raised her glass and finished drinking the wine.

Qian Xiaoxing burped, gasped, then raised his glass to drink. His face turned red and he began to become confused.

After a few rounds of food, Lu Shengzhong ran over and lowered his head to Si Yingying and said, "I'm here to pick you up, should I tell you?"

Si Yingying thought that the people were immersed in joy. If she knew that King Si would be detained when he came, she thought for a while and said, "Don't disturb everyone, just lead the father over."

After a while, Lu Shengzhong brought King Si to Qian Xiaoxing's table. Although King Si was only wearing ordinary clothes, Uncle Xu recognized him when he saw King Si. He was about to kneel down to pay homage, but was stopped by King Si: "Uncle Xu, don't be too polite. Today I am a commoner in the State of Si. Seeing that everyone is so happy, I am here to have fun with everyone, don't break everyone's interest."

Uncle Xu nodded quickly,

Qian Xiaoxing only saw King Si, only a few months before last time. When he saw him, he still felt that he was a little older. While sitting there, everyone greeted King Si. King Si said to Si Yingying: "Yingying, I heard General Lu say along the way. You have done a lot of good things in Yingwang Village this time." Then he turned to Qian Xiaoxing and said: "General Qian, Yingying has indeed read it wrong. You are such a genius. It is really a blessing for the people of Si to have your help."

Qian Xiaoxing was a little confused when he drank wine, and said, "King Si has been awarded too much, but I am still alone now. King Si, please see if you can reward a few beauties as my wife."

When Si Yingying heard this, she immediately said, "Father, don't listen to him talking nonsense. He has drunk too much. I will take you to visit Xia Village. The village is now very different from each other, so I guarantee that you will be stunned."

As he said that, Si Yingying pulled King Si. Accompanied by Lu Shengzhong and Uncle Xu, he visited all the new things in the village, including embankments, drying yards, paddy fields, and three factories. The cement factory was far away, so he didn't go there. King Si looked at it carefully one by one. Every time he went to check, he asked Si Yingying a lot of questions. After listening, he nodded with satisfaction.

After visiting various places, King Si said, "Yingying, Qian Xiaoxing is really a rare talent in the world. You have to find a way to keep him."

After hearing this, Si Yingying was silent for a moment and asked, "Father, how can we keep it? We want money but no money, and no one."

After hearing this, King Si sighed and said, "Yes, it was a good choice to betroth you to him."

After hearing this, Si Yingying felt ache in her heart and still reminded her. "Father, Yingying has already had a marriage contract."

"Oh, it's all my fault for my father. I agreed at that time. If I regret it now, I'm afraid that Lin Guo will come to settle the score. It's because my father is sorry for you." King Si was slightly moved when he said the sadness.

Seeing the sad expression of King Si, Si Yingying hurriedly said, "Father, stop talking. Yingying didn't blame you. This is my life. But don't worry, Qian Xiaoxing has no strange intentions yet and will not leave us. However, with a long-term plan, I would like to ask my father to find a solution."

"Then let's make a long-term plan." King Si waved his hand and led everyone back to the drying yard.

After walking around, it was already late. In the middle of the drying yard, high wooden racks were piled up to burn the bonfire. Uncle Xu saw that everyone was here, and announced the beginning of the party.
