Calamity Cloud dissipated, and Zhan Lingfeng stood there looking around, seeing too many people.
When he noticed the leaders from Inside the County were also present, Zhan Lingfeng smiled at them, finding it amusing. Now he could rise another level; soon he would no longer be just a leader from the Countryside, but someone of considerable rank.
As he contemplated his advancement, he saw a flying vehicle approaching in the distance.
It seemed that this time the rank was not low; a man and a woman arrived. After looking around, they turned their attention to Zhan Lingfeng.
"After research, Zhan Lingfeng has successfully passed the Tribulation again. The Royal Society has decided to elevate Zhan Lingfeng's title to Viscount. Furthermore, due to his new title as Viscount, he meets the standards for county-level leadership and will enjoy county-level benefits. We hereby appoint Zhan Lingfeng as the Secretary of Dachang County, effective immediately."
"Understood!"
Zhan Lingfeng felt joy in his heart; from now on, he could consider himself a leader within Inside the County.
At this moment, the leaders from Inside the County who had been watching let out a sigh of relief. It was good for them that Zhan Lingfeng would not remain here to develop further.
After handing over an Appointment Letter to Zhan Lingfeng, the two individuals left.
Once they departed, everyone looked at Zhan Lingfeng with complex expressions. No one expected that someone from a village could achieve such great success in such a short time. Not to mention his promotion; just considering his two successful Tribulations, it was enough to ensure he would live a long life.
In fact, what Zhan Lingfeng did not know was that success in the Tribulation granted an extension of life. Successfully completing one Tribulation could add fifty years to one's lifespan, while completing a second could add one million years. Combined with his original two hundred years of lifespan, Zhan Lingfeng effectively possessed three hundred fifty million years of extended life. This was highly advantageous for cultivators, providing them with more time to seek further advancements. Additionally, Zhan Lingfeng had accumulated a significant amount of Merit, which would allow him to further enhance his rank during reincarnation.
For Zhan Lingfeng, he had already distanced himself significantly from everyone else.
The leaders from Inside the County, led by the current Secretary, arrived with smiles on their faces. The middle-aged man at the forefront said with a smile, "Congratulations, Secretary Zhan."
"Thank you all."
Zhan Lingfeng also cupped his hands in salute.
"Our county is honored to have someone like you emerge. How about this: let's go to Inside the County for a few drinks and celebrate."
"I won't be going to Inside the County. The organization has instructed me to report to my position in Inside the County, so I need to head over."
"No need to rush; I happen to know some details about Dachang County. Let's eat and chat."
The Secretary is named Grace, who has been smiling at Zhan Lingfeng.
If he was initially worried that Zhan Lingfeng would take his position, he no longer has such thoughts now. After all, Zhan Lingfeng has left the county, and he is more focused on building a good relationship with Zhan Lingfeng.
Zhan Lingfeng thought for a moment and agreed.
Everyone quickly arrived at the largest restaurant in the county.
A table full of county leaders were present, all curious about Zhan Lingfeng's situation and eager to learn more from him.
After a few drinks, a young woman smiled and said, "Secretary Zhan, others cannot survive the Calamity Thunder; how come you are so capable?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Zhan Lingfeng.
Zhan Lingfeng smiled and replied, "I don't really know. It might be because I focus on physical cultivation; my body has always been strong."
"We've noticed that your tribulation has weakened significantly. Is there any explanation for that?"
"I don't know about that. I just feel that the Calamity Thunder isn't as powerful for me; my body can withstand it."
Everyone was left without the answers they sought from Zhan Lingfeng, and they became even more puzzled.
Grace asked, "Could it be due to your pioneering efforts?"
"That could be possible. The village and the countryside were both initiated by me. There might be factors related to that. I just wonder what it would be like if a county-level initiative were started by someone."
"The reason why various townships have experienced significant development is due to the production of Celestial Silver Flower Medicinal Herb. What will happen to this after you leave?"
Everyone began to worry about this matter.
"I've thought about it, and continuous development is key. We must ensure that the Poverty Alleviation efforts can sustain themselves; it can't just be a short-term solution. Therefore, my Beverage Factory will continue operations and expand further. The scale of medicinal herb planting in each village will also increase. I hope all leaders can pay attention to this."
"Even if you didn't mention it, we would still take action on this matter since it's a major issue for our county. Rest assured, we will treat this as a top priority for Inside the County," the Secretary stated. After hearing this, Zhan Lingfeng felt somewhat relieved.
"Secretary Zhan, according to your approach, will you take all the profits from the Beverage Factory here to Dachang County?" someone asked again.
"I will leave behind what I should for here; as for my personal finances, I will manage them myself."
Everyone actually knew that Zhan Lingfeng would definitely do this, so there was no great surprise.
"Secretary Zhan, Dachang County is not easy to handle!"
Grace then looked at Zhan Lingfeng and said.
Zhan Lingfeng originally wanted to understand the situation in Dachang County, so he asked, "What is the situation? Please inform me."
"We all know a bit about Dachang County; it's just that you don't. Just now, Dachang County conducted a corruption crackdown, and almost the entire leadership team inside the county has been replaced. What remains is a mess; the county's economy has always been at the bottom. Currently, the one in charge is a former Deputy Secretary who also holds the title of Baron. The main reason is that his father is a Viscount working in the Provincial Capital. I don't know why the higher-ups decided to send you there to take charge."
Hearing this, Zhan Lingfeng was somewhat puzzled. Since that person had such a strong background, how could he not be promoted? Instead, they sent an outsider like him there.
Seeing that Zhan Lingfeng understood, Grace smiled and said, "Now you know the situation; that place really isn't easy to manage. Once you get there, you'll need to be more cautious."
"Why not let him be the Secretary?" Zhan Lingfeng still asked.
"I don't know about that. I'm sure once you get there, you'll understand some of the circumstances."
