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

"What on earth did he do?!" Jiang Chen interrupted her and yelled.

Jiang Huixin held her phone, looked at the large screen in front of her, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Brother Chen! Xiaoshan swept all the individual gold medals in math, physics, and chemistry!"

"All perfect scores!"

"This kid doesn't play by the rules at all!"

Jiang Huixin was so excited on the other end that she stomped her feet, and even her usually gentle voice cracked.

"The challenging questions that foreigners ask are so difficult that even top students from key high schools in the provincial capital can't understand them."

"Xiaoshan only glanced at it twice, then wrote three lines of calculations on the draft paper and handed in the paper in two minutes!"

"Three exams! He didn't even use half the time!"

Jiang Chen leaned against a pillar of the town's archway and grinned.

"This little rascal is naturally clever, just like his father Jiang Shitou, who's stubborn and single-minded." Jiang Chen laughed out loud.

"It wasn't just him!" Jiang Huixin cried, tears streaming down her face, as she held the trophy below the podium.

"Brother Chen! All eight students from Jiang's Hope Primary School who participated in the competition this time won awards!"

"We've also secured first place in the overall team score!"

"I'll wipe out all the world's top geniuses!"

The background noise on the other end of the phone was extremely loud.

Jiang Chen heard a series of exclamations and protests from the foreigners.

"This is not scientific! This absolutely does not conform to scientific principles!"

A foreign coach speaking broken Chinese was frantically scratching his blond hair and roaring loudly on set.

"How could a village primary school in a remote mountainous area of ​​China produce so many child prodigies!"

"You're cheating! I'm going to complain to the Olympic Organizing Committee!" The foreign coach was so anxious that his face turned red and his neck bulged.

Jiang Huixin took her phone and walked directly to the foreign coach.

"Complain all you want! Our students are right here. If you're so capable, test them in person!" Jiang Huixin retorted without any politeness.

on the podium.

Jiang Xiaoshan was wearing the gold-trimmed school uniform printed uniformly in Jiangjia Village.

The fabric for this school uniform was custom-made by a top tailor at a high cost by Jiang Chen.

Xiao Shan was holding three heavy gold medals in his hand, looking around boredly.

The city parents in the audience, who came from big cities and considered themselves "elite families," all stared wide-eyed.

In order to educate their children, they hire famous teachers and enroll them in expensive tutoring classes.

As a result, they were all thoroughly humiliated by this wild boy from the village.

"Just what kind of magical place is Jiangjia Village?"

"I heard that the food in their village is all top-notch, and even the drinking water is some kind of sacred spring!"

"No wonder! Their brains are nurtured with mountains of gold and seas of silver; how can we compare?"

Several city parents whispered sourly in the audience, their teeth practically grinding with envy.

As Jiang Huixin listened to the surrounding whispers, tears streamed down her face.

She knows better than anyone.

Just over half a year ago, these kids were rolling around in the mud pits in the village and couldn't even recognize a complete pinyin.

It was Jiang Chen who poured unlimited funds into building the most prestigious school in all of China.

They also provide the town with top-quality vegetables and free-range chickens, specialties of Changsheng Town, every day.

They eat these miraculous ingredients for a long time, and are nourished by the spiritual spring water of the Longevity Reservoir.

These rural children have long since experienced a super explosion in intelligence and physical fitness.

It has achieved a crushing defeat of all so-called geniuses in the world.

"Brother Chen, thank you," Jiang Huixin said, her voice choked with emotion as she spoke into the phone.

"Thanks to all the money you've invested, the next generation of Jiangjia Village has truly stood up."

Jiang Chen held his phone and waved it with an air of nonchalance.

"Why are you crying! This is a joyous occasion!"

"Tell those brats from Xiaoshan that when they get back, I'll reward them handsomely!"

"Choose whatever toys they want, and have Uncle Youfu cook whatever fancy meal they crave!" Jiang Chen promised loudly.

"Okay! I'll take them on the plane back to the village right away!" Jiang Huixin smiled through her tears.

hang up the phone.

Jiang Chen put his phone in his pocket and turned to look at Ding Xiu behind him.

"Did you hear that? The kids from our village brought back all the international gold medals." Jiang Chen put his hands on his hips, his face full of pride.

Ding Xiu gave a thumbs up.

"Brother Chen is awesome! This is even more inspiring than us earning 10 billion!" Ding Xiu shouted in agreement.

Just as the two were about to get into the car.

Suddenly, a piercing police siren blared from the winding mountain road ahead.

A dozen or so official vehicles with provincial capital license plates lined up in a long queue and drove in a grand procession toward Jiangjia Village.

On the first bus, there was a huge red banner with yellow lettering that was extremely eye-catching.

"Warmest congratulations to Jiang's Hope Primary School for winning a Grand Slam in the International Mathematical Olympiads!"

The convoy drove directly to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

Director Liu of the Provincial Department of Education, with her large pregnant belly and a broad smile, ran out of the car.

He was followed by a large group of provincial TV reporters carrying long lenses and microphones.

"Village Chief Jiang! This is great news! This is a very happy occasion!" Director Liu stretched out his hands from a distance.

Jiang Chen strode over and shook hands with Director Liu.

"Director Liu, you're really well-informed. The competition results just came out and you're already here," Jiang Chen greeted him casually.

"That absolutely has to be done! This is a huge boost to the reputation of our entire Nanjiang Province, no! It's a huge boost to the reputation of all of China!" Director Liu exclaimed excitedly, spitting as he spoke.

He turned around and waved to the staff behind him.

Two clerks in suits carefully carried a huge plaque made of pure copper forward.

The plaque bears five large characters: National Top-Class Demonstration School.

The moment the plaque was unveiled, the villagers who had been watching the spectacle erupted in excitement.

Jiang Qiming held the palm-leaf fan, his hands trembling.

"This is the highest honor in the education field! In the past, only a few century-old prestigious schools in Beijing and Shanghai were qualified to hang this plaque!" Jiang Qiming shouted loudly.

This retired teacher was so moved that tears streamed down his face.

Director Liu pointed at the plaque, looking at Jiang Chen with a fawning expression.

"Village Chief Jiang, this plaque was specially approved by the higher authorities!"

"From today onwards, your Jiang's Hope Primary School will be the face of our province!"

"The province will also allocate an additional 50 million yuan in special education subsidies every year to fully support your teaching work!" Director Liu announced generously.

Jiang Chen snorted coldly.

He pointed in the direction of the back mountain.

"Fifty million? Keep it for your department's bonuses."

"Does Jiang Chen need your measly small favors to run a school?" Jiang Chen retorted without any politeness.

Director Liu rubbed his hands awkwardly, nodding and smiling apologetically.

"Yes, yes, yes, everyone in the province knows that Village Chief Jiang is rich and powerful."

"And this plaque..."

"Leave the plaque; I'll have someone hang it on the school gate later," Jiang Chen decided directly.

After dealing with these officials...

It had gotten completely dark.

The village's solar streetlights lit up in unison, illuminating the wide asphalt road as bright as day.

Jiang Chen, wearing flip-flops and waving a tattered palm-leaf fan, walked towards his large apartment.

I had just reached the entrance of the courtyard.

A huge figure suddenly emerged from under the grape trellis next to them.

"Brother Chen! You're finally back!"

Jiang Youfu sported a shiny bald head and wore a perpetually dirty red apron around his waist.

He approached Jiang Chen, carrying a covered purple clay stew pot and sweating profusely.

"What's wrong, Uncle Fu? Why aren't you drinking at home late at night? Why are you blocking my door?" Jiang Chen stopped in his tracks.

Jiang Youfu held the stew pot right up to Jiang Chen's eyes.

He lifted the lid.

An extremely strong meaty aroma, mixed with the unique sweetness of the spiritual spring water, instantly entered Jiang Chen's nostrils.

It was a pot of top-quality braised pork, stewed until tender and glistening.

The pork skin has an enticing amber color, with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, making it look incredibly appetizing.

"Brother Chen, try a bite of this first!" Jiang Youfu urged, swallowing hard.

Jiang Chen didn't stand on ceremony and directly picked up a piece with his hand and threw it into his mouth.

The fatty meat melts in your mouth, the lean meat is fresh and tender, and the sweetness of the spring water fully brings out the original aroma of the black-haired pig.

"Amazing! Your skills have improved again!" Jiang Chen gave a thumbs up and praised loudly.

Jiang Youfu suddenly slapped his thigh.

"That's a must!"

He took two steps closer, lowered his voice, and spoke mysteriously.

"Brother Chen, I met up with Fourth Sister at the logistics park for a meeting these past two days."

"My fourth sister's unique cured pork recipe, combined with my skillful use of the big ladle."

"The special ingredients that our Jiangjia Village is now using are simply unbeatable!" Jiang Youfu's eyes shone.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.

"Speak plainly, don't beat around the bush," Jiang Chen urged.

"It's such a waste for us villagers to eat all this good stuff!" Jiang Youfu shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Brother Chen! We have to fight our way out!"

"We'll make money off those nouveau riche city folks!" Jiang Youfu confidently assured him.

"Give me some money, let's go to the most bustling part of the provincial capital and pull off a big operation!"
