After the Organization Minister left, Zhan Lingfeng chaired a team meeting.
At this point, Zhan Lingfeng took a serious look at the members of the team. The members of the Town Leadership included Township Head Zheng Weiping, Town Organization Section Chief Dai Ying, Town Office Director Fu Weiwei, Deputy Secretary Hong Quanlin, Executive Deputy Township Head Gui Yonghua, Deputy Township Head Fang Datong, Publicity Section Chief Su Ying, and Disciplinary Inspection Section Chief Wei Huofeng.
Everyone in the conference room turned to look at Zhan Lingfeng.
Zhan Lingfeng scanned everyone's expressions and smiled, saying, "From now on, we will work together. Our goal is clear: to improve the work of the entire township. I hope everyone can put their efforts into this."
Zheng Weiping then said, "Comrade Zhan Lingfeng is right. We have only one direction for our efforts: to enhance the work of the entire township. Previously, our efforts in this area were not sufficient. Now is the time for everyone to work hard. Comrade Zhan Lingfeng's approach has given us a direction; as long as we focus on our work, we will surely achieve results. Our township has thirty-six natural villages, each with designated support villages. The nine of us here each lead one village. My suggestion is to further divide the work and implement poverty alleviation effectively."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes lit up with a thought: since Zhan Lingfeng was able to spend money to develop one village so well, who among them did not have family or money? If they concentrated their resources on one village, could they also develop that village into one like Wangduan Village? If that were the case, could they receive rewards from heaven and thus advance through tribulations and gain titles?
It is known that once they obtained titles, their development in this celestial realm would elevate to another level.
As for the matter of Calamity Thunder, everyone had some means to deal with tribulations and believed their families would fully support them.
With this in mind, someone expressed their willingness to go down to the village and do something concrete.
Zhan Lingfeng said, "With thirty-six villages plus our Town Government location, it is quite challenging to implement poverty alleviation for all at once. We only have nine people designated for this task. I can take charge of several villages where Celestial Silver Flowers can be harvested, but that still won't be enough!"
Zheng Weiping replied, "Developing one village at a time is key. Currently, there are thirty-five villages left. If each of us takes responsibility for one more village, that would solve nine more villages. That leaves twenty-six remaining. If each department in the countryside takes charge of one more village, we would eliminate ten more, leaving sixteen. Since Secretary Zhan has the expertise with Celestial Silver Flowers, you can take charge of those villages; I suggest we assign you those sixteen villages."
This statement made everyone feel a bit embarrassed as it seemed they were placing most of the workload on Zhan Lingfeng.
Zhan Lingfeng glanced at Zheng Weiping and understood that he really had no choice but to take action on this matter; after all, he had already been thinking along similar lines.
Thinking of this, Zhan Lingfeng nodded slightly and said, "Alright, I will specifically be responsible for the seventeen villages where the Celestial Silver Flower is harvested. Each of you will be in charge of one village, and your subordinates will also handle ten villages."
Zheng Weiping smiled and said, "Okay, it's settled then. Starting tomorrow, I will do my best to manage the affairs in the village. It might be difficult to take on too much responsibility for the countryside."
Everyone understood Zheng Weiping's intention, which was to leverage the family's influence to fully develop one village, and they expressed similar sentiments.
"Everyone's idea of going down to the villages to provide assistance is great, and I support it. However, I do not want this matter to affect the normal operations of the countryside. You all need to arrange your work properly."
"We will handle this with care, so don't worry."
The meeting quickly dispersed.
Zhan Lingfeng sat down in the Secretary's office, smiling as he thought about everyone's ideas.
"Secretary, this is your residence in the countryside, along with some arrangements you have in place. I wonder if you have any other requests," Fu Weiwei entered and said. Her feelings towards Zhan Lingfeng were complicated; he was originally her subordinate but had suddenly risen above her.
Zhan Lingfeng stood up and said, "Director Fu, thank you for your help."
"It's no trouble; this is my job."
Looking at the charming woman, Zhan Lingfeng felt quite pleased, thinking that no matter how capable she was, she was now under his command.
"How many villages in the township have Celestial Silver Flowers growing?"
"There are eighteen villages where they grow in clusters. Besides Wangduan Village, there are seventeen other villages. The basic situation of these villages is all here."
Fu Weiwei was still responsible in her work and had already handed over the situation of those villages to Zhan Lingfeng.
"Leader, actually, everyone's thoughts are quite clear. Since you were able to obtain a title through the development of a village, everyone has the same intention," Fu Weiwei said.
Zhan Lingfeng smiled and replied, "This is a good thing. If everyone can turn a village into one like Wang Duan Mountain, it would benefit the development of the entire Countryside."
Fu Weiwei smiled and walked out.
Gently tapping his fingers on the table, Zhan Lingfeng did not believe that things could be so simple. Developing an entire village to earn a title did not mean that others would succeed by doing the same.
Forget it; there was no need to think about so many things right now. This was also an opportunity for his own development. If the entire countryside developed, it would truly be a good thing for him.
Zhan Lingfeng had another concern: if Fairy Silver Flower Medicine Powder became more abundant, would the market price decrease? If the market price dropped, what should he do?
Additionally, everyone had noticed that he did not have any backing. A person without support possessing such a profitable patent—Zhan Lingfeng did not believe it would go unnoticed. The Celestial Realm did not seem much better than the Mundane world; would powerful families come to seize his patent?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that a crisis was approaching him. Even if they did not seize it now, when the Countryside's Celestial Silver Flower industry developed, would they really not take action?
Many things needed early planning. His goal was to rise quickly; being just a Baron was far from enough. He needed to think of another direction for development. If he could elevate himself at the fastest speed, few would dare to challenge him.
