Crossing the Hong Kong River: Empire of Wealth

Chapter 455: Liu Xiaojuan's Hometown
On the first weekend of May, Li Jianhui and Chen Yulian accompanied their mother Liu Xiaojuan back to Liu Xiaojuan's hometown.

Liu Xiaojuan had no prominent family affairs, and her parents were both farmers. Later, her parents died of hunger and disease one after another, and she followed her elder brother to Xiangjiang.

It's just that when she was ten years old, her brother also died young, and she was the only one left in the family to live hard in this city.

Later, because of fate, he married Li Jianhui's father and had five siblings.

However, the misfortune of fate befell this poor woman again. When Li Jianhui was more than two years old, Li Minglin died unexpectedly, and Liu Xiaojuan had to carry the family alone.

As for the impression of her hometown, it still stays when Liu Xiaojuan was a few years old, and Liu Xiaojuan has never thought about going back these years.

This is not to say that Liu Xiaojuan is ruthless. The main reason is that her family was very poor at that time, and she had no land. After her parents passed away, she did not erect a monument. At that time, her siblings were young and did not even build a grave.

And when she and her elder brother were starving, the people around them did not give them any help, which is why they left their hometown and finally came to Xiangjiang.

After so many years, the parents' bones are no longer known. In addition to the attitude of the villagers towards their brothers and sisters, it is better not to go back than to go back disappointed and sad.

But this time there was news from Xinghua News Agency that the reconstruction of the ancestral hall in the village has been completed, and a new genealogy will be made. Liu Xiaojuan's parents and elder brother will be included in the Liu family tree, so an invitation was specially sent.

To be honest, Li Jianhui was quite speechless when he received the news. He admitted that the ancestral hall and genealogy are important matters for a family.

But for Liu Xiaojuan, this is simply a trivial matter. Even if the other party doesn't know her name, Liu Xiaojuan can write a letter and ask Xinghua News Agency to forward it.

You must know that this ancestral hall has nothing to do with Liu Xiaojuan. After Liu Xiaojuan married Li Minglin, her full name was Li Liu Xiaojuan, which means that she is already from the Li family, not the Liu family.

And this ancestral hall worship has nothing to do with Liu Xiaojuan, even the gate of the ancestral hall is not allowed to enter.

Li Jianhui knew that the sudden invitation over there this time was definitely not the handwriting of those villagers. To put it bluntly, it was impossible for those villagers to know Liu Xiaojuan.

The other party came to this way this time, I'm afraid they still implemented what Huo Yingdong said a few days ago, and they were going to play the hometown family card.

Liu Xiaojuan originally didn't plan to let Li Jianhui accompany her back. In addition to her parents and brother entering the genealogy, she also planned to donate a little money this time, which can be regarded as accumulating some virtue for her parents and brother who are underground.

As for the issue of setting up graves for her parents, Liu Xiaojuan has no intention of setting them up in her hometown. Li Jianhui is already planning to build Xiangjiang's second private cemetery besides the He family. His tomb will also be moved in.

It's just that Li Jianhui considered that his elder brother went to London because of his own industry development, and that he had tried so hard to come up with such a trick, it would be bad if he didn't cooperate at all. Liu Xiaojuan went together.

Because Liu Xiaojuan's elder brother died without getting married and left no offspring, Liu Xiaojuan's father's house was unprecedented according to ancient times.

This time when Liu Xiaojuan goes back, those people may not say anything in front of her, but what will they say behind her back?That's why Li Jianhui wanted to go back with Chen Yulian, and this time he brought Li Zhipeng with him, just to win Liu Xiaojuan's reputation.

Liu Xiaojuan's hometown is Maling Village in Shiling Commune, Hua County, below Yangcheng, so Li Jianhui and others chose to take a special plane to arrive in Yangcheng, and then took the car that Jingyi Electric had prepared for her here, accompanied by the deputy director of the United Front Work Department of Yangcheng Go down to Maling Village.

Driving out of Yangcheng City, what you can see is mainly the endless fields, there are no tall buildings, and there are not many vehicles on the road. If you compare it with decades later, it can be said to be rare.

"Mr. Li, our transportation infrastructure is still relatively backward at present, so vehicles can only go to the commune, and there is still a five or six-kilometer path from the commune to Maling Village."

"Thank you, Minister Chen, for the information. My family and I have prepared for this, and this time we can just exercise."

Obviously, Chen Dongze will not just accompany Li Jianhui's family to Maling Village. His most important task is to deepen the relationship between Yangcheng and Li Jianhui, and attract Xinjian industries to invest in Yangcheng.

So during the next part of the journey, Chen Dongze introduced the economic development of Yangcheng in detail from industry to agriculture, and also explained Yangcheng's foreign investment policies.

At present, the foreign investment policy of Yangcheng is very different from that of several special zones, and there are many restrictions on the industry.

Foreign capitals come to Yangcheng to invest in industries, mainly in the form of joint ventures, a typical representative of which is the White Swan Hotel.

It's a pity that Li Jianhui doesn't operate hotels. Xinhui Hotel is currently busy expanding in major cities around the world, and its own funds are relatively tight. I'm afraid it doesn't have the intention to enter Yangcheng at this time.

For investment in other industries, Li Jianhui will only look at the Chinese herbal medicine planting base of the Chinese Medicine Group that is currently under preparation. He does not mind cooperating with Yangcheng if the time is right.

As for the state-owned enterprises in Yangcheng, Li Jianhui is not that interested, and he will not invest in these enterprises if he cannot get a controlling stake.

"Thank you very much for Minister Chen's introduction. Yangcheng has always been the center of South China, and I have always attached great importance to the market of Yangcheng.

It's just that the timing is not yet ripe. I believe that with the continuous advancement of opening up, my industries will inevitably enter Yangcheng on a large scale. "

Although he was still a little unwilling, it was just that Li Jianhui obviously had no intention of investing in Yangcheng at the moment, and it was not easy for Chen Dongze to mention this matter.

Instead, he began to introduce some situations in Maling Village to Li Jianhui, Liu Xiaojuan and others. From his words, it was obvious that he had done a lot of homework.

It's a pity that Chen Dongze and the people above are doomed to be disappointed. Liu Xiaojuan doesn't have much affection for Maling Village, which is far inferior to Tiaojingling where she has lived for decades.

Although Tiujingling was once very poor, it gave Liu Xiaojuan the warmth of her family, and there are countless memories and concerns for her.

Because he already planned to donate money, and this person accompanied them to Maling Village, Li Jianhui didn't mind adding a little political achievement to the other party.

Therefore, he said: "Although my mother left Maling Village when she was very young, it is my mother's hometown after all. On behalf of my mother, I donated million Hong Kong dollars to Shiling Commune, mainly for Maling Village Primary School, Shiling The commune middle school and the road construction from Maling Village to the commune.”
