However, upon reaching the county, the local leaders were already waiting by the roadside to welcome Gu Xiaoqing and her group.
Seeing Gu Changhai, Gu Xiaoqing squinted her eyes, thinking to herself that this old man seemed to have come with an agenda.
Although he was just a county official, Gu Xiaoqing understood that in the country, a local manager often has more power than an official, so she got out of the car and invited these leaders to a meal at the best restaurant in the county town.
During the meal, Gu Changhai was diligently serving everyone dishes and pouring drinks.
"Leaders, to be honest, Xiaoqing is the most capable person from our village. A true heroine!"
Gu Changhai smiled as he filled Gu Xiaoqing's glass, flattering her.
"Indeed, Miss Gu truly is one of our outstanding women."
The county leaders also knew that Gu Xiaoqing was from Gu Family Village and had a formidable reputation, so they naturally chimed in.
