Transmigrated as the Villain Boss's Precious Darling Chapter 35: Port Krol Movies

Adrian Hawthorne picked up the newspaper. He also gathered the rice cake slices and dried sweet potatoes, placing them on a clean patch of grass. When he saw the date on the paper, he grew even more excited—it was from three days ago.

It was the *Zylos Daily*, the political and economic newspaper with the largest circulation in Zylos Province. Although it was only half a sheet, it was more than enough to make Adrian Hawthorne ecstatic.

Old Master Tate realized what was happening and beca even more excited. The old man and the boy put their heads together, staring intently at the newspaper, completely forgetting about Tang Xiao Nan.

Tang Xiao Nan pouted. ’It’s just a newspaper. Is it really sothing to get so excited about?’

’But since Adrian Hawthorne likes newspapers, I’ll just have to get more for him. We don’t have many newspapers at ho, but Byron Thorne does.’

Byron Thorne was the production brigade’s barefoot doctor and part-ti veterinarian, so he often went to town and would bring back newspapers each ti. Then there was Old Master Shane Thorne. He was the most concerned with current events, so their house was never without a newspaper. This was because the brigade leader got along very well with him and would give Shane Thorne the papers as soon as he received them.

Adrian Hawthorne’s eyes scanned ten lines at a glance as he hungrily searched for important news. The front page was mostly filled with articles of praise, which didn’t interest him. He wanted to know about people’s livelihoods and politics, and Old Master Tate felt the sa. Their eyes moved like radar, and in no ti, they had finished scanning one side of the paper. There was no news of interest.

Though they were a little disappointed, seeing a newspaper at all was better than nothing. Adrian Hawthorne flipped it over to the back and once again beca engrossed in reading. Both of them had forgotten about Tang Xiao Nan again.

"Look here!"

Adrian Hawthorne cried out in excitent, his finger pointing to a small report in the corner of the paper. His eyes were shining. Old Master Tate leaned in for a look and was so thrilled he nearly jumped to his feet.

"This is great! They’re actually importing movies from Port Krol! They started last year! Kenneth, do you know what this ans?"

The old master’s voice was trembling, and the corners of his eyes glistened with tears. He had waited for so long, and finally, it had happened in his lifeti.

Tang Xiao Nan’s heart skipped a beat. ’It’s 1978 now, so last year was 1977. They started importing movies from Port Krol this early?’

’Weren’t things from there supposed to be poisonous weeds?’

’She wasn’t sure if small details like this had been ntioned in the book. Tang Xiao Nan had read it too carelessly; even if it had been described, she probably wouldn’t rember. But since it was reported in the newspaper, it had to be true—at least, it was really happening in the world of this book.’

Tang Xiao Nan understood why the old man and the young boy were so excited. Since movies from Port Krol were being imported, it ant that policies were gradually relaxing. She also rembered that the national college entrance exams had resud in ’77, and the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee would be held at the end of ’78. The spring winds of reform and opening up would soon blow across the entire country.

’This was a golden age for panning for gold. As long as you seized the opportunity, it wouldn’t be hard to beco a tycoon. Should she try to make her own fortune as well?’

Tang Xiao Nan could no longer remain calm. She decided to add a new goal for herself—

’Work hard, move forward, and strive to beco a first-generation millionaire.’

"Where is Port Krol? Is there good food there?" Tang Xiao Nan asked, tilting her head with a look of pure, simple innocence.

"All you think about is food. You’re turning into a little piglet."

Adrian Hawthorne was in an excellent mood, and his gaze softened considerably as he looked at her. His hand even itched to give her little pigtail a tug, which he did. ’This chubby girl brought such an important newspaper. Even if she causes trouble, I don’t care anymore.’

Tang Xiao Nan’s face fell instantly. She pressed her lips together and rolled her eyes at him irritably. ’She hated it most when people called her fat.’

’Not even the future big shot was allowed to do it.’

Old Master Tate said with a smile, "A little girl is cuter when she’s a bit chubby. It’s a sign of good fortune. Xiao Nan, Port Krol is a very beautiful city. It has a lot of delicious food, a lot of opportunities, and it’s also the financial hub and film factory of Essia."
