Wang Chen very much agreed with what Zhang Hu and Liu Shitou had said.
In fact, after hearing Liu Shitou's explanation, he had begun to yearn for and covet the position of village official.
He had given up the opportunity to develop in a big city and returned to Taoyuan Village, probably with three objectives in mind.
One was to pay off debts and favors, the second was to open a clinic that was completely his, and the third was to find ways to develop rural enterprises, thus spurring the village's economic development.
If he followed his previous plan, he indeed might realize these three objectives.
But it would take a very long time.
However, if he became a village official, not only could he shorten this timeframe, but it would also provide many conveniences for anything he did.
Without exaggeration, if achieving his original plan took five years, becoming a village official could reduce that to possibly only three or even two years to accomplish this series of goals.
