Reborn IT Giant

As a native of Jiangkou, Zhang Xinghai couldn't see the problems that Zheng Yan could see, but he just didn't have the ability to change them.

"Zheng Yan, no matter what, thank you for investing in Jiangkou. If you still have plans to invest in the future, we will still welcome you and will definitely give you the best policy support."

"We came here this time and brought you a gift. It's not a valuable item, but a local specialty. I hope you like it."

Originally, Zheng Yan thought that Zhang Xinghai gave him something like wild fungi, but it turned out not to be the case.

The entourage brought out a stone-carved inkstone and a dragon-shaped ornament. The overall color was mainly purple, with green, milky white and other colors. The color was warm and the texture was delicate. It looked the same as jade.

According to Zhang Xinghai, these two items are local specialties, but according to Zheng Yan's understanding, jade is not produced in Jiangkou.

Although Zheng Yan had doubts, he was afraid of being entangled by Zhang Xinghai again, so he did not say it immediately. As for the value of the items, Zheng Yan did not think too much about it. Presumably, given Jiangkou's economic situation, the other party could not afford to give away anything too expensive.

.

It was not until Zhang Xinghai and his party left that Zheng Yan called Zheng Rong over.

"Zheng Rong, look at what kind of material this is. It was given to me by County Magistrate Zhang of Jiangkou County. It is said to be a local specialty. I think it is not much different from jade. Can you see if there is any

The value of the investment.”

"I thought it was a good thing. This is called Purple Pao Jade, which is a local specialty of Jiangkou. Although it looks similar to jade and has jade in the name, it has little investment value."

The Zheng family is mainly engaged in the jewelry industry, and Zheng Rong is also quite interested in this aspect. When he first arrived at Jiangkou, he thought it was jade and asked someone to find out more about it. Later he found out that it was just a joy.

"It's not that this thing has no investment value at all, but even the best purple jade is always inferior in quality to jade. The local people make it into stationery, tea trays or such ornaments, and the value is not

Very high.”

Zheng Yan originally didn't expect to find any business opportunities, and now he completely lost interest in the purple robe jade.

"Zheng Yan, let's go and go out for a walk. It happens that the nearby school is almost completed. I hope the project will bring the newspaper's staff

The reporter will do the interview, let’s go and take a look together.”

Zheng Yan had nothing to do, so after hearing what Zhao Weimin said, they walked to school together.

A group of people walked on a path in the mountains. Flowers were everywhere, trees were shady, and the sun shone through the leaves, creating a scene like a fairyland on earth.

But when a few people walked to the village, the muddy roads, dilapidated houses, and ragged pedestrians were in sharp contrast to the natural scene just now.

"Zheng Yan, what are you thinking about?"

Zhao Weimin has seen countless similar scenes, and after being touched again and again, he has gradually become accustomed to it. At this moment, when he saw Zheng Yan standing in a daze, he couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing, that's the little girl I saw this morning."

Zheng Yan himself did not expect that the little girl he met by chance in the morning would meet here again.

The little girl was still wearing her morning clothes, squatting in front of the house, holding a branch in her hand, and kept writing and drawing on the ground.

There is a two or three-year-old child next to the little girl, who must be the younger brother in the little girl's mouth. Every time the little girl writes for a while, she will stop and look at her younger brother, as if she is afraid that her younger brother will be lost.

"Kid, what are you doing!"

The little girl heard someone talking to her and raised her head.

"Big brother? Why are you here?"

Perhaps because they had already met each other in the morning, the little girl was obviously not as defensive and reserved as when they met in the morning.

"By the way, you haven't told your brother what your name is yet."

"My name is Yanyan."

"Can Yanyan tell brother what you were doing just now?"

"I...I'm practicing writing."

When Yanyan talked about writing, she felt a little embarrassed and a little inferior.

According to Yanyan, she did not go to school, but she could write. Zheng Yan couldn't help but be curious.

"Yanyan, didn't you say you didn't go to school? Then who taught you to write?"

"I...I went to school, but I only went to school for two years, and then I stopped going to school. But usually my father would teach me to write at home."

Zheng Yan originally thought that Yanyan’s family conditions were difficult, and her parents also favored sons over daughters, so she

Yicai left the opportunity to go to school to her younger brother. Yanyan's statement that as long as her father made money in the factory, he would let her go to school was just perfunctory.

But looking at it now, it seems that there is something hidden in the matter. Since she has been allowed to go to school, and her father usually takes the initiative to teach her how to read, at least her father supports her going to school.

Just when Zheng Yan wanted to explore further, Village Chief Xu came over.

"Manager Zheng, why are you here?"

Normally, Zheng Yan would definitely correct the other party's address, but at this moment, Zheng Yan just wanted to know about Yanyan's family situation, so he didn't care so much.

"Village Chief Xu, we are just out for a casual walk. By the way, this little girl named Yanyan, do you know her family situation?"

"You said she is from the same village, how could she not understand her?"

After listening to the village chief's story, Zheng Yan understood what was going on.

Most people in the village are surnamed Xu. Yanyan's full name is Li Yan. His father is an educated youth named Li Jiandong who once went to the mountains and countryside. However, because he got married and had children, he lost the opportunity to return to the city and his hometown.

Although Li Jiandong didn't have the chance to return to the city, he didn't complain too much. He was very kind to Li Yan's mother and very filial to Li Yan's grandparents. He was also very diligent and could be said to work hard without complaining.

Unfortunately, Li Yan's mother accidentally broke her leg due to rain when she went to work in the mountains. Not only did she lose her ability to work, she also used up all her family's savings.

The burden of family life suddenly fell on Li Jiandong alone. Since the two elderly people in the family were gone and his son was still young, there was no other choice but to let Li Yan drop out of school.

"Manager Zheng, Yanyan's family is really having a hard time. Although people in the village also want to help, every family has its own difficulties, so they can't be of much help."

"Fortunately, since you are here, Jiandong will be able to work in the factory in the future. He is already well-educated. I believe his life will be easier in the future."

Zheng Yan lowered her head and looked at Yanyan beside her, then continued writing there. It seemed that her life, apart from working and taking care of her younger brother, was all about self-study.

"Manager Zheng, look, that's Li Jiandong." Village Chief Xu pointed at a person and said.
