Chapter 337: Saving one life is like building a seven-level pagoda.

Ji Changming was well dressed down, and within less than half a day, he had earned a whopping 170,000 yuan, which made Gu He feel extremely happy.

Seeing that the village was bustling with banquets being set up, Gu He casually said a few words.

Then he didn’t stay much longer and drove away directly.

Even though everyone was from the same village, and just now many of the locals had defended him in front of outsiders,

the gap between them had grown increasingly large.

Many of the village elders now subconsciously dared not call Gu He by his name anymore.

The many friends he had in the village would also constantly refer to him as "President Gu," without end.

There was more respect in their conversations, and even standing in front of Gu He, they had started to behave more reservedly.

Of course, Gu He could understand some of their thoughts to an extent.

After all, many people in the village, although not his employees in name,

and without any contract or the like, most of the time, were actually working for him.

Gu He was well aware of this; he had leased so much farmland,

that if it weren’t for the help of the villagers, even if Tian Laosì worked himself to death, he wouldn’t be able to manage it all.

So whether Gu He liked it or not, he had become the actual boss of the entire village.

The restraint and unease that these people showed when facing him, and the occasional subtle ingratiation,

were all perfectly normal; it was simply human nature, beyond his power to change.

That’s why he didn’t continue to stay in the village and eat with everyone else.

Gu He wanted to preserve the beauty of his memories of the past in his own heart in this way,

not stick around clinking glasses and listening to old acquaintances butter him up.

Moreover, compared to chatting idly with these people,

Gu He felt it was much more comfortable to go home and have dinner with his wife and adorable daughter,

a cozy meal just the three of them.

As he drove back, he thought this to himself and couldn’t help but curl his lips into a knowing smile.

Then his gaze happened to catch sight of a newly opened large supermarket by the roadside.

Gu He decided to stop first, intending to buy some groceries before going home.

Ever since his wife’s designed clothes sold out at the exhibition,

Ji Pianran seemed to have ignited all her passion at once.

Day after day, endless inspirations burst forth,

as if she were making up for a decade’s worth of lost dreams all at once.

Even in their dreams at night, she would have liked to sketch a few design drafts on him.

Gu He was both pleased and helpless about this.

After all, with such a talented wife, he could only assume the role of the family’s chef.

Fortunately, he had many subordinates to help him manage various affairs on normal days.

Wang Zhong was mature and steady, Da Chun was experienced, and although the Neon Feather Garments store had just opened,

it had quickly gotten on the right track and didn’t require too much of his direct involvement.

Qiao Hua, the university student, was also very clever, and had been recently handling all sorts of miscellaneous tasks in the fruit shop,

and was proving to be quite adapt, having even recently recruited his sister to help.

The two college students managed the fruit shop meticulously, allowing Gu He to feel relieved.

Zhao Chunfa was constantly visiting various medicinal herb markets and expositions, expanding sales channels for him.

Second Brother Gu He was in charge of delivery, while the family’s farmland was looked after by Tian Laosì and his parents.

Each person was dedicated to their responsibilities, full of enthusiasm, leaving only Gu He as the hands-off manager.

Every day simply involved cooking and looking after the child, a life that could be described as very leisurely.

Gu He was pondering what to make for dinner while he parked his car in front of the supermarket.

Who would have known that just as he stepped out of the car, he suddenly heard what seemed to be a woman’s cry for help not far away.

This made him somewhat puzzled, and he walked over, only to see a woman in her thirties.

She was kneeling by the side of the road, holding a little girl, and with a panicky face, she said to the passing people.

"Please, everyone, save my daughter, she seems to have a high fever, can someone please help us?"

The woman’s voice was not soft, and her expression was truly very urgent.

This immediately drew the attention of many people in front of the supermarket.

Although ambulances were available in those days, no one could say for sure when they would arrive.

And looking at the mother and daughter’s ragged clothing, they did not appear capable of affording medical expenses either.

This made the hearts of the onlookers unavoidably worried for them.

"I, I do have some antipyretic medicine I just bought, but I’m not sure if it’s the right one," said a kind passerby, stepping forward and offering the medicine bag to the woman.

"I have some anti-inflammatory drugs here too, young lady, do you know what’s wrong with your child?" another onlooker stood out and asked with a concerned face.

However, it was clear that even the woman herself did not know what was wrong with her daughter.

Seeing this, she could only kneel on the ground and cry helplessly.

Gu He, who was also standing in the crowd, was somewhat surprised by this.

He could not help but sigh in his heart that even in the city, people were still genuine at heart.

If this had happened before his rebirth, he feared that no one would have been willing to get involved in such a situation.

After all, he had personally witnessed a person suddenly fainting in a bustling square.

Yet in that scene with at least a thousand people, everyone turned a blind eye and even avoided it as if it were the plague.

Not a single person was willing to lend a hand.

Seeing this, Gu He stepped forward and bent down to examine the situation.

He had Intermediate Medical Skills granted by a system, and had once used it to treat his father-in-law, Ji Guangsheng.

Although his medical skills were not particularly excellent, he was no layman either.

However, when he really saw the little girl’s condition, he was taken aback.

Her skin was burning hot, her face was flushed red, and she was tightly closing her eyes, seeming to be on the verge of unconsciousness.

Gu He checked her pulse and immediately knew that the little girl was probably suffering from a cold.

She had not received effective treatment, leading to the current emergency.

He turned to look at the crowd around him full of concern and couldn’t help but sigh and say.

"Everyone, put away the medicines you’ve brought, although they are somewhat appropriate.

But now, her condition is not something that can be cured by medicine, and if she is not taken to the hospital within ten minutes.

She might even be in danger of losing her life."

The moment these words were spoken, the bystanders were startled, and several locals couldn’t help but exclaim.

"But even if we drive, it’s half an hour to the nearest hospital from here."

Upon hearing this, a look of despair appeared on the woman’s face.

Gu He hadn’t expected this turn of events and was extremely anxious.

He was a father himself and could not bear to see a life pass away before his eyes.

However, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck him, and in that instant, he remembered that he had a certain medicine in his space.

Perhaps it could help stabilize her condition.
