Time passed 1925 without realizing it. A few days before the New Year 26, in the auditorium of Xingmin Company's headquarters building, there were lights and colorful cars, and it was very lively. All the units, factories, mines, institutions, and military affiliated with Xingmin Company were all festive and colorful elements, and local people also spontaneously bought colorful ribbons and hung them at their doorsteps to share and celebrate the 10th anniversary of the establishment of Xingmin Company.

In the auditorium, thousands of elites from all walks of life within Xingmin Company, farmers, businesses, minerals, ethnic minorities and other representatives in the actual controlled area were sitting around the table, talking warmly with each other, sharing the joy that Xingmin Company brought to itself over the past ten years.

"Please be quiet! Quiet!" The emcee's request came from the speakers in various places from the auditorium branch. The auditorium, which was very lively just now, suddenly became quiet.

"Now, we ask Mr. Duan Guoxue, the chairman and founder of Xingmin Company, to speak to everyone." As soon as the emcee finished speaking, warm applause rang out in the auditorium.

Walking onto the rostrum, Duan Guoxue looked at thousands of pairs of eyes below and was paying attention to himself with various eyes such as fanaticism, reverence, and admiration. These people are elites in various industries closely related to him or Xingmin Company. They are waiting for him to give orders. As long as they give orders, they will mercilessly tear all the stumbling blocks that block their way forward without hesitation.

"Everyone, I want to talk about my current mood and excitement, and I am very calm. Ten years ago, I was kidnapped here by thieves. However, although I lost all my money, I knew a noble person in my life - Principal Wang Shuilin. With his help, I started my business here. I think the saying that the loss of a blessing is the best explanation for me." With a burst of laughter, the solemn atmosphere just now suddenly became cheerful.

"Looking back at the path we have walked over the past ten years, I believe everyone has endless stories and experiences. I will not talk about it here. I just want to express my deep gratitude to everyone, thank you for your firm support for me and Xingmin Company in difficult times."

"Looking back on the development of our Xingmin Company over the past ten years, from nothing to something, from small to large, from low to high end, from single iron processing to tens of thousands of parts and finished products, it contains the sweat, tears and even the lost lives of everyone sitting. Here, we raise our glasses and give the first glass of wine to those heroes."

"Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. Although we have achieved great success, the 23 counties under the jurisdiction of our Xingmin Company have basically achieved that everyone has food and clothing. But looking at China, there are still 40 million compatriots who are still struggling on the line of food and clothing. The governments and warlords of all parties do not care about their lives and deaths, but only care about fighting each other and fighting for territory. In order to help these poor compatriots, I hope everyone will work harder in their future work, produce more and better products, produce more food, help them and our own compatriots..."

Although Duan Guoxue's speech was not much, it was interrupted by many thunderous applause. After the end of the speech and the banquet began, Duan Guoxue and several main responsible persons held their glasses toast everywhere.

"Mr. Vernar, I'm glad you can attend the celebration banquet held by our Xingmin Company. I heard that you have been promoted to the main person in charge of the German Consulate in Guangzhou, China. Congratulations!" At a banquet not far from the main seat, Duan Guoxue saw Vernar and several German officials who often deal with him.

"Mr. Duan, I was promoted to this position because of your company's strong support for my work." Since contacting and interacting with Duan Guoxue, Vernard has not only obtained a large amount of resources with some old domestic equipment, but also has firmly stood firm in the southern part of the Far East China, which has made the German senior management very satisfied with Vernard's work. Not only that, the tank drawings provided by Duan Guoxue made the new weapons invested by the British in the Battle of the Somme useless. Although Germany was eventually defeated, the new weapons and pre-warning provided by Duan Guoxue have reduced Germany a lot of losses, which has made some German senior management very interested in Duan Guoxue.

"Mr. Vernar, although Germany is now suffering after the defeat, I believe that with the tenacious will and selfless efforts of the German people, another revival of Germany will come soon."

"Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Duan. From our personal relationship, I will also provide my greatest help and support in the future cooperation."

"Uncle, you are here too, how about your body?" After leaving the diplomatic officials like Fonnar, Duan Guoxue came to the rural representative seat. Many Duan Guoxue were sitting here, and the old uncle in front of him reminded him of the story by the canal that afternoon.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll thank you for your blessing."

"How are you doing in the village now? You see, as soon as I get busy with work, I don't have much time to go to you to see."

"No! No! No! No! Everything is fine in our place. The cultivation of new rice allows us farmers who are farming to have enough food. In addition, water conservancy, fertilizer use and agricultural students' guidance, the harvest can easily reach a yield of 1,000 pounds. Two years ago, every family in our village raised money to erect a merit monument of Lord Duan at the entrance of the village, so that everyone can know the great virtues of Lord Duan. Lord Duan's daily life is a blessing for us. Don't delay Lord Duan's business for a little bit of our affairs." The old uncle quickly explained.

"Uncle, you are wrong. In our country, rural farmers' affairs are the biggest business. You should know that the workers, soldiers and scientists of our Xingmin Company have long been starved to death."

"Mr. Duan is so proud of us, so proud of us. General Manager, this is my grandson. He is now a student in the school. He has something to say to you." The old man pulled a young man beside him to Duan Guoxue.

"Oh? Is there any good news? Please tell me."

"Yes, General Manager, our village is now a key experiment in agricultural development. The demonstration village and the agricultural department of the higher technical schools has established a series of agricultural experimental bases there. Not only is the grain output high, but it is also studying animal husbandry, fruit planting and aquatic industry. Some time ago, it even established a new type of plastic greenhouse to allow some fresh vegetables from spring and summer to appear on the winter table for the first time. Look, this is our newly grown cucumbers and tomatoes." The young man excitedly handed them to Duan Guoxue from a few fruits and vegetables he carried with him in an exquisite box.

"Yeah!! Not bad, sweet! Fresh!" He picked up a red tomato and took a bite. Then Duan Guoxue exclaimed the delicious fruit.

"Is the general manager satisfied with our research results?" the young man asked anxiously with affirmation in his eyes.

"Yeah! I'm very satisfied. I don't know what your name is?"

"Li Chunxi, a student in the 19th spring class of the Department of Agriculture, is about to graduate and is preparing to apply for the fourth institute."

"You don't regret four places that deal with land? This is a lifelong job that faces the loess and bears the sky?"

"I don't regret it. I heard many seniors say the general manager in school. An agricultural scientist full of mud and water is a hundred times more important than an old scholar who is full of knowledge. And every time I pass by the village, whenever I see the merit monument spontaneously built for the general manager in the village, I secretly swear that I will do better in agricultural development in the future than the general manager. I want all rural areas in the world to erect merit monuments with my name written on it!" Li Chunxi's bold words surprised everyone here. It would be more than Duan Guoxue's contribution. What kind of concept is this?

"Okay!!! A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger!!! And what is doing research is to dare to break through! The achievements that surpass the predecessors, otherwise the world will retreat!" Duan Guoxue was not at all unhappy with these words that threatened his contribution to agriculture. For him, he just opened his golden finger and stole other people's achievements, but this result could not satisfy himself. He was even more satisfied with the emergence of such young people in front of thousands of things who were motivated and surpassed their achievements.
