Seeing that the matter was resolved, County Chief Wang waved to Ma and the other officers, signaling them to take the person back first.

The people who had been holding onto Village Chief Zhang let go of his hands.

Village Chief Zhang collapsed to the ground, staring in the direction his son had gone. It took him a long time to get up with help.

He didn't say anything, but simply bowed deeply to Li Kaixin, then turned and staggered away.

The figure was terribly hunched over, because Village Chief Zhang knew that his village's position would definitely be lost after this incident.

Once the main character had left and there was no more excitement to watch, the onlookers dispersed in twos and threes.

However, they were still discussing what had just happened, each with a different expression on their face, and they all remembered Li Kaixin, this young man, very well.

Li Kaixin withdrew his gaze, turned to Captain Wang and said, "Captain Wang, I'm sorry to have troubled you with this matter today."

"I'm so happy you're telling me all this."

Captain Wang smiled and patted him on the shoulder, then gave him some instructions:

"However, you should be more careful when you go hunting in the mountains in the future."

"Understood, thank you Captain Wang." Li Kaixin nodded.

At this moment, County Magistrate Wang approached again, his smile earnest:

"Coach Li, are you free to have a casual meal at the state-run restaurant tonight? We'd like to extend our hospitality."

"I'm sorry, County Chief Wang, I have some things to attend to today, so I won't bother you any longer," Li Kaixin politely declined.

Although County Chief Wang was somewhat disappointed, he did not press the matter further.

"Then please go ahead with your work, Coach Li. You're welcome to come anytime you have free time."

After saying that, he turned around, greeted the county leaders, and left together.

Their main purpose today is to inspect the grain situation in each commune, and they certainly won't stay in any one commune for too long.

Captain Wang naturally went along; he had been invited, and it wouldn't be appropriate for him to leave halfway through.

After everyone had mostly left...

Secretary Zhang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, walked up with a smile:

"Coach Li, what are your plans right now? Do you need any assistance?"

He had heard it clearly on the phone earlier: even the leaders of the Beijing Military Region valued this young man. How could he not try to curry favor with him now?

"No need, Secretary Zhang, you can go about your business." Li Kaixin smiled and declined again.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhao Laosi led a dozen or so villagers from Kaoshantun rushing toward them.

"Brother Li! Are you alright?" Zhao Laosi's voice came before they even got close.

"It's nothing, Brother Zhao!" Li Kaixin greeted him with a smile. "But you, why did you bring so many people?"

"Hey! I'm just worried you'll get ripped off!"

Old Zhao wiped the sweat from his brow, his face full of honesty:

"You have no idea, Zhang Mazi's father, who is the village chief, is notoriously protective of his own."

As he spoke, he looked around, somewhat puzzled: "Huh, where's Zhang Mazi?"

"Brother Zhao, you mean him? He's been taken away by the police." Zhou Zhiming immediately came up from behind with a grin.

Zhao Laosi was stunned upon hearing this, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.

"His father didn't come? That can't be, can it?"

"Of course I'm here."

Zhou Zhiming straightened his back smugly and recounted what had just happened with great enthusiasm.

After hearing this, the villagers behind Zhao Laosi all widened their eyes and looked at Li Kaixin with admiration and awe.

"Brother Li, I didn't expect you to have this identity?" Zhao Laosi's tone was somewhat reserved.

"Brother Zhao, don't listen to this kid's nonsense."

Li Kaixin smiled and offered a casual explanation.

"My identity is just for show, it's just like getting an extra salary, it's not what you think at all."

"Is that so?" Old Zhao scratched his head, still somewhat doubtful.

The villagers of Kaoshantun behind him also breathed a sigh of relief, and the sense of distance they had felt earlier immediately diminished.

Wu Tian, ​​Qian Dazhuang, and Du Ziteng, who were standing nearby, all saw this, but none of them said anything.

They could all see clearly that Zhao Laosi and the others' expressions were obviously off when Zhou Zhiming finished speaking.

Li Kaixin didn't want to dwell on the matter any longer, so she quickly changed the subject:

"By the way, Brother Zhao, what about those wild boars we hunted?"

"It's at my house!"

Zhao Laosi reached out and grabbed Li Kaixin, extending a warm invitation.

"Come on, Brother Li, we didn't eat anything for lunch. My wife made some food for me when I arrived."

These words should have been ignored, because as soon as they were mentioned, Zhou Zhiming, Wu Tian, ​​and the others' stomachs started rumbling.

Upon hearing the commotion, the dozen or so villagers from Kaoshantun burst out laughing.

Zhou Zhiming and the others blushed instantly, wishing they could disappear into the ground.

Seeing this, Zhao Laosi smiled and advised:

"Brother Li, don't be so polite. Look how hungry Brother Zhou and the others are."

"Alright then, Brother Zhao, thank you for your help."

Li Kaixin did not refuse again, and then he turned to Secretary Zhang and Captain Cui.

"Secretary Zhang, Captain Cui, I'll be going now. Until we meet again."

Goodbye, Coach Li.

Secretary Zhang smiled broadly and said, "If you encounter any problems in the commune later, feel free to come here and find me."

Captain Cui, who was beside him, also waved goodbye, his attitude very polite.

Li Kaixin nodded without saying anything more, and walked towards Kaoshantun Village with Zhao Laosi and the others.

On the way, Zhao Laosi approached Li Kaixin and asked with a smile:

"Brother Li, what are you planning to do with those three wild boars?"

"Brother Zhao, you handle it as you see fit!" Li Kaixin said indifferently.

To be honest, he doesn't really care about these things now, and he finds it too much trouble to bring them back.

Besides, given that Zhao Laosi brought so many people today, Li Kaixin wouldn't treat him unfairly.

"No way!" Old Zhao waved his hands repeatedly. "You made this for me, brother, how can I take it for nothing?"

Brother Zhao, don't try to pass the buck with me.

Li Kaixin smiled slightly, her tone sincere:

"If you really feel bad about it, you can share some with the brothers who came today. We can't let them come all this way for nothing."

A villager nearby, overhearing this, couldn't help but chime in:

"Comrade Li, you really don't need to. We still remember the dozens of wolves you gave to our village last year!"

"That's right!" Several other villagers echoed, all with smiles on their faces.

Seeing this scene, Li Kaixin felt a warmth in his heart for no reason. He really didn't expect that these villagers would still remember after a year.
