Four people walked on the bustling street, with the sound of hawking on both sides.
Though it was almost mid-year, the market was still very lively, with people selling all sorts of things.
"It sure is lively, good thing our village built this road, getting to the county city is so convenient now."
"Exactly, Xiaolong has such foresight, I admire him."
The two companions who were young had just joined the village committee this year, and they were indeed flattering excessively.
Lü Dan sneered, "You two stop sucking up here, focus on the important tasks at hand. Who doesn't know about Xiaolong's abilities? No need for you to point it out."
Lü Dan was now someone with status in the village committee and had been brought into the fold as well.
The two young men could only offer sheepish smiles and dared not retort.
Chen Xiaolong walked at the front of the group, curiously looking at either side of the street, sometimes stopping in front of a stall to see what was being sold.
