Chen Yang watched the old houses being demolished.

After the demolition was completed, he went with Wu Kexin to properly settle the families whose houses were taken down.

The houses have been demolished, and it'll take some time to rebuild and move in.

So during this period, they can only be temporarily accommodated in other homes with expenses covered by the village office.

There were quite a few families needing accommodation, and Chen Yang and Wu Kexin busied themselves for one or two hours to get everyone settled.

After finishing this, it was almost dark. Chen Yang didn't return to the village office with Wu Kexin but instead went back to the clinic alone.

Back home, Chen Yang started preparing dinner for himself.

In the process, he deliberately prepared some minced meat to take to the backyard for Wangcai and Hei Yun to eat.

Hei Yun is expecting now, so it needs some extra nutrition.

Chen Yang intended for Wangcai to watch Hei Yun eat, and only after Hei Yun was finished would Wangcai get a turn.

But unexpectedly, Wangcai seemed to know that Hei Yun was expecting and, upon seeing Chen Yang with the minced meat.

It sensibly stepped aside, letting Hei Yun enjoy the meal first.

Watching Hei Yun eat happily, it sat beside happily as well.

"What a loyal dog,"

Witnessing this scene, Chen Yang felt both amused and exasperated, but this was good—it spared him the worry about Hei Yun not getting to eat.

He turned back to the kitchen to continue making his own dinner.

After eating, with nothing else to do, he practiced some martial arts to while away some time before going to bed.

The next day.

A new construction team entered the village in full force.

This time, there were even more people than a few days ago!

The usually quiet little village suddenly became lively with so many people around.

Machines were operating, and the workers were loudly conversing in a bustling scene.

Chen Yang heard the commotion outside and stepped out to take a look, chatted a bit with Li Han and Wu Kexin, then each went back to their office to work.

Only Chen Yang and Yang Ruoxi had nothing much to do, so they stood outside watching the construction team work, a bit bored.

Having nothing better to do, after watching for a while, Chen Yang didn't want to stay any longer, so he called Yang Ruoxi to check out other places, such as the growth conditions of the orchard.

But at that moment, a crowd emerged from the Gu Family building, catching Chen Yang's attention.

"Chen Yang, is that Gu Xuanyu bringing people over?"

Not only did Chen Yang notice the crowd, but Yang Ruoxi also saw it.

At this time, Gu Xuanyu was leading seven or eight people in Chen Yang's direction.

"That's him."

Chen Yang smiled slightly and replied to Yang Ruoxi.

Upon hearing this was indeed the case, Yang Ruoxi looked a bit puzzled, "Why is he coming over, to cause trouble?"

"Haha, what else? Surely he can't sit still seeing us fully engaged in work now." Chen Yang's smile grew wider.

Before Yang Ruoxi could reply to those words,

Gu Xuanyu had already brought his people close.

Initially, Chen Yang thought the people following behind him were from the Gu Family,

only to find out upon getting close that they weren't.

The way they dressed and their aura suggested they were some investors or something, definitely not Gu Xuanyu's henchmen.

Gu Xuanyu approached with a not very pleasant expression, took a look around at the fully operational site, and finally returned his unfriendly gaze to Chen Yang.

"Well, Chen Yang, relying on some investments from the Li and Dai Families, you're resuming work so quickly," Gu Xuanyu said sarcastically.

Chen Yang smiled slightly, "That's all thanks to you; if you hadn't pressured us at the county, I wouldn't be resuming work so quickly."

Hearing this, Gu Xuanyu displayed a scornful smile on his face.

Then he continued, "As far as I know, you don't have much funding, right? How many days can you sustain such operations with that bit of money? No real skills, and just acting like you do!"

"I advise you, show some wisdom; without the involvement of the Gu and Murong Families, you can never complete this project in this lifetime."

Gu Xuanyu spat threats.

But in actuality, Chen Yang could still see traces of anxiety in his minor expressions.

Evidently, the method Gao Ya taught worked.

Seeing the comprehensive initiation of the work made Gu Xuanyu a bit restless.

Even the investors behind him were quite nervous seeing the hot, bustling scene around.

"Haha, whether I'm pretending or not, you'll know on the day of completion. I have the money to build it within half a year, so just wait and see," Chen Yang replied calmly and confidently.

Seeing Chen Yang's demeanor, the worried look on Gu Xuanyu's face evidently deepened.

However, if you didn't closely examine it, it would still be hard to notice.

"Good, good, I'll wait and see how you, Chen Yang, get the funds to tackle such a big project all at once," Gu Xuanyu repeated "good" several times before coldly snorting and leaving with the investors.

Gu Xuanyu was a bit worried seeing the village's work starting full out.

But he still thought it was impossible, so he didn't take any action over the next month.

And nothing changed in the village.

The project proceeded systematically, and Chen Yang would check on it occasionally or attend some meetings in the office.

Everything was moving towards a positive direction.

A month passed, and when Chen Yang noticed no movement from the Gu Family, he was considering if his act wasn't convincing enough.

He eventually received a call from an unknown number.

This call wasn't from just anyone—it was from the very investors Chen Yang had been eagerly anticipating.

Moreover, it was from a notable investment company from the neighboring city, specifically inviting him.

They wanted to meet him for discussions.

Receiving this call, Chen Yang was naturally overjoyed inside but remained impassive on the outside.

After a brief conversation, he didn't immediately agree but said he'd consider it and would get back later.

The other party agreed to let Chen Yang take his time considering.

After the call, Chen Yang promptly went to the office to inform Li Han and Wu Kexin about the call.

Over the past month, Li Han and Wu Kexin worked harder to cooperate with Chen Yang's plan, increasing their workload daily.

They invested heavily to accelerate construction.

Watching the funds slowly go out while still not receiving any calls from investors, they were both quite worried for Chen Yang.

Hearing this good news, the two of them nearly jumped up in excitement.

"Great! Finally, we have hope! Our heavy investments over the month weren't in vain," Li Han said happily.

Wu Kexin was equally thrilled.

"Yes, finally, there's a lead. I know a bit about that company; they are quite powerful. If they invest, it'll definitely be a substantial amount,"

Wu Kexin shared in excitement, promptly telling Chen Yang about the investment company's specifics.

Initially, just from hearing the name, Chen Yang felt the company was no ordinary entity. Listening to Wu Kexin's introduction, he realized it's not just trivial but could even be considered a small consortium.

If they could secure their investment, it would surely be substantial.
