Chapter 723 Helpless Negligence

Qi Tongwei looked aggrieved and helpless, and he explained that he was not familiar with some business terms, which led to such negligence, and it was not intentional. But Hou Liangping was so angry that he could not listen to any explanation.

The quarrel spread like a gust of wind throughout the village. When the villagers heard about it, they fell into anxiety and worry. They were afraid that the development momentum they had worked so hard to build would be lost because of this quarrel, and that the opportunities they had once dreamed of would slip away from their fingertips again. Some villagers began to discuss privately, some accusing Qi Tongwei of carelessness, while others worried that Hou Liangping would completely give up helping the village because of this.

The village chief realized the seriousness of the situation, and he urgently called together several respected elders and some knowledgeable young people in the village to discuss how to resolve the crisis. Everyone sat together, the atmosphere was solemn and serious. An elderly villager said slowly: "Our village can achieve what it has today, thanks to the efforts of Hou Liangping and Qi Tongwei. This is just a misunderstanding, we have to find a way to get them to sit down and talk things out calmly." The young people also nodded, expressing their willingness to do their part to mediate the conflict.

So, the villagers began to act separately. Several villagers who had a good relationship with Hou Liangping took the initiative to find him, patiently listened to his ideas and dissatisfaction, and also told him about the changes in the village over the years and everyone's gratitude to him. They persuaded Hou Liangping not to give up the development of the entire village because of a momentary anger. After all, everyone is in the same boat, and only by working together can we sail to a better shore. On the other hand, some villagers accompanied Qi Tongwei to carefully sort out the problems in those documents, help him recognize his mistakes, and discuss how to make up for and improve them.

With the unremitting efforts of the villagers, Hou Liangping and Qi Tongwei gradually calmed down. They began to realize that their behavior not only affected themselves, but also the fate of the entire Knight Village. Finally, under the auspices of the village chief, the two sat down again and had a frank and in-depth exchange face to face.

Qi Tongwei sincerely apologized to Hou Liangping, admitted his shortcomings in handling affairs, and expressed his willingness to bear all consequences and take active measures to correct his mistakes. Seeing Qi Tongwei's sincere attitude, Hou Liangping's anger gradually dissipated. He realized that he was too impatient in dealing with the problem and did not fully consider Qi Tongwei's actual situation and difficulties. During the communication, the two recalled the days when they had worked hard together for the development of the village, and those scenes of overcoming difficulties together seemed to be right in front of them. They knew that their goal was to make the Xiake Village better, but they encountered some twists and turns on the way forward.

After this heart-to-heart talk, Hou Liangping and Qi Tongwei resolved their conflict and shook hands again. They jointly developed a more complete management system and supervision mechanism to ensure that similar problems would not occur again. The atmosphere in the village also became harmonious and positive again, and everyone began to work together for the future development of the village.

As time goes by, Xiake Village has encountered opportunities and challenges one after another. In the face of fierce competition in the international market, the villagers have continuously adjusted and optimized the design and marketing strategies of cultural and creative products with the spirit of unity and innovation. They have deeply explored the connotation of Xiake culture and developed a series of products with higher artistic value and cultural heritage to meet the needs of different customer groups.

At the same time, Xiake Village is also actively expanding other industrial fields, combining local natural resources and characteristic agriculture to develop ecological tourism and agricultural product deep processing industries. Visitors can not only enjoy the beautiful rural scenery and experience the colorful rural life, but also taste fresh and delicious farm food and unique agricultural products. The village's economic structure is becoming increasingly diversified, and the foundation for development is becoming more solid.

During this process, Xiake Village also encountered many natural disasters. A landslide caused by a heavy rain threatened the safety of some villagers' houses and farmland. But this time, the villagers did not panic or retreat. Under the leadership of the village chief, they quickly organized a rescue team, and men, women, old and young joined the battle to fight against natural disasters together. Some villagers braved the wind and rain to clear the soil and rocks of the landslide and dredge the roads; others helped the affected neighbors to transfer supplies and settle down. Everyone supported and helped each other, and interpreted the power of unity and mutual assistance with their actions.

After hard work, Xiake Village has successfully overcome difficulties time and time again and is constantly moving towards a more brilliant future. The tortuous roads, fierce quarrels, and disputes over interests have all become valuable assets in the development of the village. They are like a mirror, always reminding the villagers to keep a clear mind and cherish the hard-won development results; they are also like a bright light, illuminating the way forward for the villagers, making them more determined and confident when facing difficulties and challenges.

Today, Xiake Village has become a well-known example of a prosperous, harmonious and civilized beautiful village.

Those ingenious martial arts dolls, exquisite ancient-style accessories and hand-painted albums full of stories, carrying the cultural heritage of the Knight Village, have spread to all parts of the country and even across the oceans to appear in foreign gift shops and cultural fairs.

As the village's reputation spreads, the number of tourists continues to rise. The once poor, backward and little-known village has now become a popular tourist destination in the surrounding area. The villagers have opened more farmhouses and homestays to provide tourists with comfortable accommodation and delicious farm dishes. Young people in the village have returned to their hometown to start businesses. Some have joined the cultural and creative team and used their own ideas to inject new vitality into the products; others have used online platforms to live broadcast the daily life, folk activities and the production process of cultural and creative products in the village, attracting a large number of fans and further broadening the village's popularity and product sales channels.

However, just when the village was prosperous, a new storm quietly arrived. Hou Liangping had reconciled with the village on the surface because of the incident with his third grandmother, but he still had a knot in his heart. One day, he came to the village to do some work and happened to meet Qi Tongwei who was setting up a new batch of cultural and creative product display areas.
