1998, late November.
"The weather outside is great, the mountains and rivers are the same, the rivers and rivers are still the same, as if it was explained in the mouth of my grandfather, the reflection of the mountains in the sky also reveals the same resonance in the blood, maybe this is the root of his mouth, but why can't I produce it? Even if there is a little bit of sympathy, it should not be that I have changed, but... I was destined to be different from the beginning."
Tang closed the notebook, gently covered the pen, and put it in his collar pocket, looking like a cultural intellectual.
at this time…
He is sitting on the special train.
Knowing that the famous entrepreneur was about to embark on a "root-seeking journey", the relevant departments above attached great importance to it, and specially opened a special train. There were only a small number of people including him and Mister in the entire carriage.
This kind of treatment is the only one in the whole country, and it is impossible without reaching a certain level.
Obviously, the higher authorities attach great importance to him, and it should be said that they attach more importance to his investment.
And negotiated more than 20 projects with Pengcheng officials, with a total value of 8.7 billion U.S. dollars, and the first deposit of 1.1 billion U.S. dollars was directly transferred to the account. This kind of partnership is simply a blessing for everyone.
"How long is it?" He looked at the accompanying staff of the government department and asked. .
"It's about 20 minutes to the station."
Tang Dao nodded, looking out the window, the scenery kept going backwards, but he had a different mood from the notes in his heart, nervous? Or yearning? curious?
…
Houcheng Railway Station.
This is a small county with a population of less than half a million, and the train station is also very small, with only two tracks. At this time, the platform is full of people, talking to each other in low voices, and there are people behind banner.
"Warmly welcome Mr. Tang Dao to return to his hometown to find his ancestors!"
And in the middle of this group of people, there is a slightly corner place.
However, there were a few people who seemed out of place. No matter how well-dressed they were, their demeanor, manner of speaking, and slightly anxious.
"Uncle, I want to pee." A bloated young man in his 20s whispered awkwardly to the old man beside him.
The latter is wearing a veteran cadre outfit, as the saying goes: big pockets, gray clothes that are a little white after washing, and skin as dry as an old tree's wrinkled skin. Hearing this, he frowned, "You are a lazy donkey who urinates a lot, now Where are you going to spread it? Hold on!"
He said that he couldn't help but reached out and touched his pocket. There was a pack of cigarettes in it, which was brought from the leader, and it was used for card faces.
People before and after are naturally different.
"Uh..." After being scolded by the village chief, the man showed embarrassment, looking at the other companions, they all suppressed their laughter.
This group of people is the representative of the village.
When people from the county came to inform them that a big boss came back to look for his relatives, it immediately caused waves in this small village with only a hundred households. It seems that the biggest one they have ever sold is a self-employed household with ten thousand yuan.
"Uncle, they said that the big boss belongs to our village? Which one? And he is very rich? How much?" Someone asked beside him.
The village chief frowned, "How do I know how much money he has? It's also other people's money. Why are you so nervous." He stared at these worthless juniors, of course he knew what these people thought.
In this era, even the air is filled with longing for money, gradually losing the so-called simplicity, and beginning to pay more attention to the word "profit".
After being stared at by him like this, the guilty faces of the few people turned red.
"The surname is Tang in the county, and there are not many households in our village. Isn't your second aunt's family the same? Yunsheng." The village head said to another person.
"It seems to be, I don't know the details." The young man named Yun Sheng said in a muffled voice, "But the last time someone from the county investigated, my second aunt had an uncle who had indeed gone to a foreign country before, and he thought he died in a foreign country. It was outside, but I didn't pay attention at the time."
Just as the village chief was about to speak, he heard a long roar of a train, and someone in front shouted, "Here we come, here we come." Immediately, everyone became serious, even his expression became very serious, " Stand up, don't embarrass me."
A few young people stood up straight in an instant, but their eyes were still slippery, wanting to see who could get off the train. In fact, even the village head himself seemed very nervous.
When Mr. Tang got off the train, there were already people outside shouting for welcome. A few people he didn't know came over to introduce him, with smiles on his face. Boss Tang was also smiling, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
Originally they wanted to invite Boss Tang to a hotel in the county for dinner, but Tang was not very interested and wanted to go to the countryside first. The foreign guests still had to give face, and the leaders agreed after looking at it.
Call the village chief over, smile and say to Tang, "This is the village chief of Liyang Village."
Tang Dao looked at the nervous old man in front of him, stretched out his hands, held him, and said some greetings in a gentle voice. Seeing that this man was so talkative, the village chief felt less restrained.
After getting into the car prepared in the county, the group headed towards the small mountain village 20 kilometers away with a little exaggeration and fanfare.
Sitting in the car, the village head was very uncomfortable, moving up and down as if bitten by ants, when he saw Tang Dao looking over, he smiled awkwardly.
"Can you tell me about Liyang Village? Uncle Li." Tang asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes." The village chief nodded hurriedly and introduced, "Our village has a history of about 300 years, starting from the war at the end of the Ming Dynasty..."
Accompanied by the old man's rough voice, the convoy headed towards the destination. Perhaps the city of Houcheng was located in the coastal area, with a slightly developed economy and convenient transportation. The roads seemed to have been repaired.
But when you get deeper, it's not so good.
The dilapidated road is full of potholes, and the car is bumpy when driving up. The fields are endless, and only scattered people are standing, looking at the convoy, showing curiosity.
When he arrived at Liyang Village, Tang was a little confused even if he knew what was in his heart. Hundreds of people gathered around him from nowhere, looking at him nervously, confused, and curiously. Put the ball in your mouth and bite, the little face is covered with dirt.
"Go, go, goWhat are you doing standing there?" The village head might feel ashamed, and rushed away with a little blushing. The leader and foreign guests are here, can everyone pay attention to personal hygiene?
It should be said so, personal hygiene!
Tang Dao didn't mind very much, he stretched out his hand to block the village chief, said to Mist behind him, and then said loudly with a smile, "Everyone..." He suddenly got stuck because he didn't know how to address him?
Could it be gentlemen and ladies?
Ladies and gentlemen?
Parental relatives?
In the end, I still think it is better to use the word "villager". "I am very happy to be able to come back to the Liyang Village that my grandfather said." His emotions are also very complicated.
Emotions are mobilized unconsciously.
Sometimes, words can't explain the originality of the heart at all, just like life is free, large intestine... no, the world is unpredictable.
"Mr. Tang, after our visits, we can confirm that your grandfather Tang Bosheng is the second son of the Tang family in Liyang Village. At that time, the society was in turmoil. He went out to make troubles and never came back." The relevant department personnel said.
"Thank you, I... does grandpa have any relatives?"
"Yes, there is a cousin who is 89 years old now, shall we go and see?"
"Go, go and have a look."
