Just as it was about to express its thoughts again, the Fire Fox saw it vanish directly...

With a slight hesitation, the powerless Fire Fox looked at the ginseng in front of it...

Soon, it began to nibble gently!

It knew this ginseng, over a hundred years old, would help it quickly return to its perfect state.

The next day, when Hu Xiaobei woke up, the sky had completely brightened.

"Still feeling a bit weak! Looks like I really need to take a good rest these last few days!"

After getting up, Hu Xiaobei carefully sensed his condition, muttering softly...

Hu Xiaobei knew he had really lost a lot of vitality before, so he absolutely needed to recuperate well in the near future, otherwise, there might be lasting effects.

He moved his body slightly, and with a calm expression, Hu Xiaobei walked out of the room.

At this time, Hu Xiaobei heard joyful voices from outside.

"Xiaohong is really cute!"

"Exactly! Just looking at it makes me feel comfortable!"

"Xiaohong? Could it be..."

Muttering softly like this, Hu Xiaobei quickly walked into the front yard...

"Indeed!"

He walked into the yard and affirmed his guess at the scene before him.

Previously, hearing those cheerful words, Hu Xiaobei had guessed that Xiaohong might refer to the Red Fox.

Now, seeing Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao fondling its fur, Hu Xiaobei knew he was completely right.

Muttering like this, Hu Xiaobei found they were both looking at him...

With a gentle smile, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Good morning, everyone!"

Guo Meiyu glanced sideways at Hu Xiaobei and replied irritably, "Morning? It's almost eleven o'clock now!"

"Is it that late?"

Hu Xiaobei's eyelids twitched hard.

Seeing Hu Xiaobei's shocked expression, Han Xueyao smirked slightly, teasingly saying, "Yeah! We thought you were going to sleep the whole day!"

"I don't want to, but I've been too tired lately!"

"You always have excuses! By the way, a few village chiefs are by the Gazebo!"

"Village chiefs?"

Hu Xiaobei furrowed his eyebrows in surprise...

Hearing him say this in bewilderment, Han Xueyao squinted and explained, "Yes, the village chiefs! The ones who previously didn't want to cooperate with our Xiaohe Village!"

"Ah, it's them!"

Hu Xiaobei squinted softly.

Previously, due to the hot market for Xiaobei Brand, many surrounding villages proactively sought cooperation with Hu Xiaobei, requesting help to cultivate Xiaobei Brand.

Hu Xiaobei gladly agreed to these requests.

Because in Hu Xiaobei's heart, shared prosperity was the most important!

With such noble intentions, Hu Xiaobei welcomed all comers!

As a result, Xiaobei Brand was extensively cultivated in nearby villages and even towns.

However, several villages didn't join in cultivation; these were particularly wealthy villages nearby!

The reason they refused was that they thought Hu Xiaobei's Xiaobei Brand was pure nonsense...

Thus, even when Hu Xiaobei and Guo Meiyu personally sought their cooperation, they were unwilling...

At the time, they said many very unpleasant things...

Since then, Hu Xiaobei and the others stopped bothering with them, as there's no point in seeking warmth from cold shoulders...

...

Hu Xiaobei didn't expect they would now come looking voluntarily...

Moreover, several of them came together!

"Well! I didn't know what to do, so I let them wait temporarily by the Gazebo!"

"Got it, leave this matter to me!"

"Okay!"

Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao laughed!

They knew if Hu Xiaobei handled it personally, it would surely be done especially well...

...

While they smiled, Hu Xiaobei crouched down to look at the fiery red fox!

For some reason, Hu Xiaobei sensed a hint of shyness from it!

"This must be an illusion!"

Muttering this, Hu Xiaobei looked at it and said, "I'm going to handle some matters now; once I'm done, I'll come back and check on you properly!"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, it gently nodded its head.

Seeing its obedient nodding, Hu Xiaobei chuckled, and quickly turned to leave.

Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao squinted at this scene.

Soon, Guo Meiyu softly said, "Sister Xueyao, I heard those village chiefs are really formidable! Will Xiaobei be at a disadvantage going alone?"

Han Xueyao looked at Guo Meiyu in surprise, teasingly saying, "Sister, is this your first day knowing this little rascal? Has this little rascal ever been at a loss?"

"Well, that's true!"

After thinking carefully, Guo Meiyu laughed!

Indeed!

All these years, Hu Xiaobei hadn't suffered a single loss.

"Exactly! He surely won't suffer a loss this time either, so don't worry!"

"Alright!"

Nodding vigorously, she watched expectantly as Hu Xiaobei departed...

Before, knowing those people were unreasonable, she worried Hu Xiaobei might suffer.

Now, she knew it was absolutely impossible...

...

Hu Xiaobei didn't know their thoughts; now, he headed straight for the Gazebo.

Simultaneously, Hu Xiaobei began carefully considering their information...

Qin Meng, village chief of Qinjiazhuang, Wu Yong, village chief of Wu Family Manor, Shi Yutian, village chief of Shijiazhuang...

Every one of them was particularly assertive; previously, Hu Xiaobei sought them for cooperative talks but was shut out.

"Hope they're just here for a chat this time; otherwise, I'll give them the cold shoulder too!"

Recalling the cold shoulder he received before, Hu Xiaobei chuckled coldly.

People hold grudges!

So does Hu Xiaobei!

Previously, he sought cooperation for every village's development, but they outright rejected him...

This decisive refusal stuck with Hu Xiaobei, leading him to cut off thoughts of cooperation...

Now, naturally, there'd be no further thoughts of cooperation...

...

By the Gazebo, Qin Meng, Wu Yong, and Shi Yutian silently smoked!

At this moment, their expressions were particularly grim; this was because Xiaohe Village was simply too beautiful now!

They were thoroughly shocked upon first arriving at the village...

In their view, this was practically like an Immortal Realm!

Of course, what shocked them most wasn't the village scenery, but the rows of villas and the new cars...

Seeing these scenes left them dazed...

In their memories, Xiaohe Village was extremely poor.

They believed even with Hu Xiaobei energizing the village slightly, it couldn't change much!

But now, they realized they had clearly underestimated this place...

This place was truly stunning...

Qin Meng stubbed his cigarette butt and spoke in a deep voice, "Stop smoking; let's share our thoughts now!"

On Qin Meng's prompting, they stubbed out their cigarettes as well.

Then, they spoke with faces full of shock, "I'm still shocked even now!"

"Me too! This Xiaohe Village is truly amazing!"

Previously, both of them had visited Xiaohe Village.

Back then, it was a famously poor village.

They thought such a poor village wouldn't undergo major changes for decades.

Yet in reality, the village had completely transformed in no time.

Hearing their shocked remarks, Qin Meng nodded, saying, "Indeed, Xiaohe Village now is truly different!"

Speaking so, Qin Meng deeply inhaled the air and found it incredibly refreshing...

He felt genuine regret at this moment!

If only he had known Hu Xiaobei was so capable, he wouldn't have shut him out before nor said those unpleasant words!

He knew that they surely felt the same regret and annoyance...
