I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

Jiang Chen shouted loudly.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness.

The ever-expanding golden vortex exploded.

A shower of golden light poured down from the sky.

The system's electronically synthesized sounds are no longer those cold, mechanical tones.

Instead, it became incredibly solemn.

Even Jiang Chen's mind was buzzing.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully completing the highest difficulty challenge of this system after experiencing ups and downs!]

[Jiangjia Village's current reputation and overall strength have surpassed conventional understanding on Earth!]

[This is to hereby award the highest honor in the system—the First Family of All Time!]

The voice just fell.

A virtual golden plaque exuding an extremely ancient and profound aura.

It slammed heavily onto the very top of the system space.

The plaque bears several large characters written in a vigorous, dragon-and-phoenix style.

The golden light was so bright that people couldn't open their eyes at all.

[With the unlocking of the title, all family members become immune to terminal illnesses, their lifespan is greatly increased, and the family's fortune endures forever!]

The system finished reading the last sentence.

All the golden light slowly receded, merging into Jiang Chen's limbs and bones.

Jiang Chen stood on the steps outside the gate.

A summer breeze blows.

He took two deep breaths of the fresh air from the mountains.

He didn't jump up and down in excitement.

There was no shouting or yelling in excitement.

For him, all of this was simply a natural and peaceful process.

He waved his hand casually.

Simply turn off the system's prompt interface completely.

"Immunity to terminal illness, increased lifespan. This is a good deal," Jiang Chen muttered softly.

The hundreds of billions of dollars that were poured in over the past six months have finally yielded tangible returns.

Even if you have money, you need to be alive to enjoy it.

From now on, the system will no longer need to issue mandatory tasks.

Jiangjia Village, this super aircraft carrier, is now capable of crushing everything on its own.

He threw the half-smoked cigarette butt on the ground.

Stomp on the sole of your flip-flops with force.

He turned around and pushed open the heavy brass door.

The courtyard was brightly lit.

Laughter from his wife Su Qing and mother-in-law Jiang Wan could be heard coming from inside the house.

This is the most authentic reward.

Jiang Chen walked up the steps in his slippers and pushed open the glass door to the living room.

"You still know to come in?" Su Qing was holding a large white porcelain bowl.

"The pot of fifty-year-old turtle soup that Mom made is almost cold!" Su Qing rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

Jiang Chen strode over.

He sat down on the leather sofa with an air of authority.

"My wife brought this. Even if it's cold or frozen solid, I'd still drink it all!" Jiang Chen laughed as he took the large bowl.

Jiang Wan, wearing a silk apron, walked out of the kitchen.

The wife of the richest man in the provincial capital has now completely abandoned the airs of a wealthy city lady.

Having lived in Jiangjia Village for a long time, she has developed an increasingly strong sense of everyday life.

"Chen-ge'er, stop being so cheeky." Jiang Wan smiled and wiped her hands with a towel.

"This is wild seafood that Youfu just caught from the reservoir behind the mountain. It's very nutritious!" Jiang Wan pointed to the bowl of soup and instructed.

"You have a large and successful family now, so while you're young and in good health, you should have a few more children."

Jiang Chen tilted his head back.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh.

I ate most of the bowl of rich and fragrant turtle soup right away.

"Mom! Don't worry!" Jiang Chen wiped his mouth.

"I'm so healthy I could kill a bull. Our Jiang family is blessed by our ancestors."

"From now on, may our whole family, young and old, live to be 120 years old without illness or disaster!" Jiang Chen declared with great ambition.

Su Qing took the empty bowl and placed it on the coffee table.

"You're just bragging!" Su Qing glared at him playfully.

"He'll live to be 120! Tomorrow, if you don't wear that tattered vest to fight the old man for the chessboard under the big locust tree, that'll be considered fulfilling your filial duty!"

"I call that tactical guidance," Jiang Chen retorted confidently.

"Are Tianci and An Yan asleep?" Jiang Chen turned to look upstairs.

"Go to bed early. The two little devils played on the lawn all afternoon and are exhausted." Su Qing sat down next to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen leaned back on the sofa.

I felt the warmth from the turtle soup in my stomach.

There is also an invisible and intangible feeling of lightness that is traveling all over my body.

he knows.

That's the blessing of the "Number One Family in All Ages" – its fortune and lifespan – which has already begun to take effect on every member of the Jiang family.

The next morning.

The air in Jiangjia Village is exceptionally fresh.

A thin layer of white mist floated over Changsheng Reservoir.

Jiang Chen was still wearing the same old white tank top that cost 9.9 yuan (including shipping) and floral shorts.

Wearing flip-flops and waving a tattered palm-leaf fan.

I strolled leisurely to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

The area under the tree was already crowded with people.

The atmosphere this morning was unusually lively.

"This is weird!"

Old Master Jiang Wanshan was wearing a traditional Chinese jacket and was waving his sandalwood cane.

He shouted loudly.

"This morning when I got out of bed, my legs weren't trembling at all!" The old man tapped the bluestone slab heavily with his cane.

"After decades of suffering from rheumatism, I can't even feel the slightest soreness anymore!"

Jiang Mancang was squatting on the stone bench next to him, banging his pipe with the sole of his shoe.

"Absolutely!" Jiang Mancang replied in a loud voice.

"My aching back, a result of years of toiling in the fields, cracked this morning when I stretched!"

Jiang Mancang stood up and twisted his waist twice.

"I'm bursting with boundless energy! I can carry two bags of fertilizer and run all the way to the top of the mountain in one go!" Jiang Mancang exclaimed excitedly.

Liu Cuifen, who was shelling edamame in a bowl next to her, also started shouting.

"Me too! My migraines are completely gone today! My mind is so clear I can even figure out that the village supermarket owes me two cents!"

A group of elderly men and women were gathered under the tree, all with rosy cheeks and incredibly energetic.

Jiang Chen walked over, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan.

"Great-Grandpa! Uncle Mancang!" Jiang Chen greeted them loudly.

"I always said our Jiangjia Village has good feng shui. This is our ancestors showing their blessings, protecting all of us in the village so that we can live to be a hundred years old!" Jiang Chen said happily, going along with the conversation.

"Brother Chen is right!" Jiang Wanshan stroked his goatee and nodded repeatedly.

"Since you became the village chief, our village has become more and more prosperous. Even the heavens are on our side!" the old man praised loudly.

Jiang Chen just sat down on the stone bench.

They hadn't even had a chance to set up the chessboard yet.

A screeching sound of tires came from afar.

A black, top-of-the-line, bulletproof Mercedes-Benz G-Class sped in from outside the village gate.

The car drove up to the big locust tree.

Suddenly, the car braked sharply.

The tires left two long black tracks on the top-grade asphalt road.

The car hadn't come to a complete stop yet.

Li Qiang scrambled out of the car and jumped out.

He was wearing a wrinkled suit and was covered in sweat.

Even his tie was pulled crooked.

"Brother Chen!" Li Qiang shouted in his hoarse voice.

He strode up to Jiang Chen, panting heavily.

"What's wrong? Are you in a bind?" Jiang Chen stopped fanning himself with his palm leaf fan.

He frowned, looking at Li Qiang, whose face was flushed with anxiety.

"Let's talk this out! What kind of behavior is this, rushing around so early in the morning!" Jiang Chen scolded loudly.

Li Qiang swallowed hard.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Brother Chen! Something terrible has happened!" Li Qiang reported loudly.

"I was just checking on the goods at the cold chain logistics park when County Head Zhang Weimin called my cell phone directly!"

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.

"What does County Chief Zhang want with you? Does the county want to buy cheap frozen pork from our village?" Jiang Chen asked casually.

"I'm not buying pork!" Li Qiang stamped his feet in frustration.

"County Chief Zhang's voice was hoarse from shouting on the phone! He was cornered in the county government compound!"

"Who blocked him?" Jiang Chen wondered.

Li Qiang took a deep breath and gestured with his hands in the air.

"People from more than a dozen towns!" Li Qiang roared.

"The village chiefs of more than a dozen impoverished towns surrounding Qinghe County banded together before dawn today and rented a full ten buses!"

Li Qiang's eyes widened in surprise.

"They brought hundreds of village representatives and completely blocked the entrance to the county government building!"

The elderly men and women playing chess and chatting around them all stopped.

They all stared at Li Qiang.

Jiang Mancang even forgot to smoke his pipe.

"What are they doing blocking the county government gate? Are they rebelling?" Jiang Mancang shouted.

"Go for welfare?" The old man frowned.

Jiang Chen leaned against the stone table and patted his thigh with a palm-leaf fan.

"What does causing trouble and begging in the county have to do with our Jiangjia Village?" Jiang Chen sneered.

Li Qiang waved his hand repeatedly.

"We're not going to beg for food!"

Li Qiang was breathing heavily, his voice so loud that it could be heard throughout the area under the big locust tree.

"The village chief, Li, who was leading the group, was holding a thick stack of petitions signed by ten thousand people! He slammed it directly onto County Magistrate Zhang Weimin's desk!"

Jiang Chen looked at Li Qiang. "What does the joint statement say?"

Li Qiang swallowed hard and shouted loudly.

"They strongly demanded that the territory and population of those dozen or so towns be entirely placed under the jurisdiction of our Jiangjia Village!"

"Those village chiefs specifically named names and made threatening remarks!"

"They said even if the whole village came and begged for food or did hard labor, they would still have to be your village chief Jiang's underlings!"
