In the last few days of the holiday, Qin Fan rushed back to the school and handed over the previous paintings and papers to An Lao for guidance.

An Lao looked at the two unobtrusive oil paintings, and didn't know how to comment, Shi Ruolan and Liao Yu were also a little stunned, Liao Yu muttered in a low voice: "What is this painting? A three-year-old child can draw it." ”

An Lao knew some things about Qin Fan, and scolded with a smile: "You will please ......"

Qin Fan hurriedly answered: "An Lao, it's not to please, it's just fooling, fooling." ”

"Then you're fooling the old man, too. An Lao feigned anger and said. Qin Fan knew that he was speechless, so he closed his mouth tightly and said no more.

"Well, the article is not badly written. An Lao praised approvingly.

Then he commented on the works of Liao Yu and Shi Ruolan, and the evaluation of Liao Yu's paintings was higher than that of Qin Fan and Shi Ruolan.

"Don't fool me with those paintings in the future, my old man can't read them. An Lao feigned anger and said.

After the end, Shi Ruolan, who went out, saw Liao Yu's complacent appearance and knew that he looked down on Qin Fan a little, so he said with a smile: "Don't look down on Qin Fan's paintings, those paintings can be sold for 5,000 to 10,000 US dollars in American galleries, An Lao said that, but he doesn't like this style, not that those paintings are useless." ”

Liao Yu's eyes widened suddenly: "Didn't you listen to those rumors?" "He is ten thousand not convinced.

"There are many things you don't know, there are heavens outside the sky, there are people outside the people, Qin Fan is not necessarily worse than you, I don't know why you look down on him? Just because he was exempted from coming in?" Shi Ruolan persuaded: "Everyone is classmates, it's rare to be together, why do you have such a tense relationship?"

Liao Yu was silent, and the jealousy in his heart became stronger and stronger.

-----------------------------------------------

On the county road under the winter sun, there are several convoys of vehicles, and among the army green military vehicles, the blue Dodge is still eye-catching.

"Little Kim, turn around at the intersection ahead, I want to take a look at those old places. Su Zhaohai commanded.

Director Jin said with some embarrassment, "But I didn't inform them that we were going to ......."

Su Zhaohai interrupted: "Bureaucratic style, there is no need to alarm the local comrades, we will take a look and leave." ”

After returning to the old area to worship his ancestors, Su Zhaohai suddenly changed his itinerary when he returned and passed through Gao'an City.

"Grandpa, where are you going?" The tired Su Qian saw that the car in front of her turned in the direction, so she asked Su Jian, the eldest brother who was driving.

"It seems to be the direction of Gao'an, could it be that grandpa went there to see his acquaintance? haven't you heard him say it?" Su Jian guessed as he turned the steering wheel.

"I'm dying of exhaustion, I really want to go home early. Su Qian closed her eyes and said.

"I don't know if I can meet Qin Fan?" Su Jian said to himself.

Su Qian opened her eyes, but remembered that this was Qin Fan's hometown, and her curiosity suddenly rose, and then she wanted to see what the place where he was born and raised was like.

The convoy turned past the South Gate and headed north, and it didn't take long to see the towering South Gate Vertebrae, and after passing through the narrow South Gate Street, it arrived at the spacious city center----- Gulou Street.

"It turns out that there are three streets in Gao'an City, but only Gulou Street is the most prosperous ......" The pattern, houses, and shops that have not changed much evoke Su Zhaohai's memories.

Director Jin asked in surprise, "Did the chief fight here?"

“...... At that time, we were all young, and when the Long March was popular, our little ghost head joined the army here, and at that time, people did not have high guns,......" Su Zhaohai recalled.

After getting off the bus, surrounded by everyone, along the street, while looking at the scene of the previous years, walked to the intersection of Gulou Street and Huang Street, saw the antique Lin's restaurant, and was in a trance for a while, and involuntarily walked to the restaurant.

The waiter in the brocade robe led them to the box, and Su Zhaohai looked around and couldn't help sighing, "This is still the same as before." ”

Seeing the waiter arranging the plate, Su Zhaohai asked, "Girl, who is the owner of your restaurant?"

The waiter who was asked was Wei Feifei, and from the moment they entered the door, Feifei could see that they were not ordinary people, so she came to serve them in person.

"He's my grandfather. Wei Feifei replied with a smile.

"Is it Lin Zhicheng?" Su Zhaohai asked after thinking about it, and his heart couldn't help but beat rapidly.

"Lin Zhicheng?" Wei Feifei was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, indicating that her grandfather was not called by this name.

"Where's the others?"

"I'm busy in the back hall. ”

"Girl, take me to see it. ”

......

"Grandpa, someone is looking for you. ”

The outer justice was reminding the masters to pay attention to the cooking heat, and in a blink of an eye, Fei Fei led a group of people to the back hall, and behind Fei Fei was a gray-haired old soldier.

"Xiao Linzi, is that you?" Su Zhaohai shouted tentatively.

"You ......"

"Oh, I'm Zhaohai, Su Zhaohai, Su Daya. The old man was excited, and he also reported his nickname when he was a child.

-----------------------------------------------

The two old men avoided everyone to reminisce about their past years.

"Brother, do you say that this Lin Restaurant has anything to do with Qin Fan's Lin Restaurant?" Su Qian asked as she looked at the "Lin Restaurant" font on the tablecloth and dishes.

Su Jian shook his head, then called out to Fei Fei and asked, "Is there anyone named Qin Fan here?"

Fei Fei nodded and said, "He is my brother and the young boss here." ”

"Where is the others?" asked Su Qian as eagerly as her grandfather.

"He should be at home now. Fei Fei thought for a moment and replied.

"When is he coming?"

Fei Fei looked at the excited Su Qian and replied vigilantly: "He, he usually doesn't come." ”

Su Jian looked at his deflated sister with a balloon, smiled and took out a "brick" and pressed Qin Fan's copy number.

Qin Fan, who was playing crazy with his daughter on his back, felt a vibration in his waist, flipped up the cuff machine to show Su Jian's number, and dialed back strangely: "Brother Su, what's the matter?"

"Come to the store!"

"Damn, I'm in my hometown now, and I said something on the phone. Qin Fan thought that Su Jian had arrived at his campus store.

"I'm in Lin's Restaurant in the Drum Tower now!"

"I'll go, when did you come over?" Qin Fan said in surprise.

"Now, hurry up. Su Jian urged.

When Qin Fan arrived on a bicycle, Su Lao and his grandfather's house was already full of old relatives and old people who had heard the sound, and some city leaders were sitting attentively beside them.

"Why are you here?" Qin Fan saw Su Jian, Su Liang, and Su Qian's three brothers and sisters, as well as their parents and aunts, as well as the children of their aunt's family.

"Worship the ancestors, when I was about to go back, the old man said that he wanted to go here to have a look, and it happened that he landed in your store to eat. Su Jian explained with a smile.

The aunts who had never seen Qin Fan looked at him and talked about it one after another, and Su Qian's sister-in-law Su Su smiled and asked in a low voice, "This is the person who made you cry last time?"

Su Qian replied embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, it's been a long time, why are you still mentioning it?"

"But he and you look like a couple. Sister-in-law Su Su joked.

"Auntie!" Su Qian turned around a little unhappily.

----------------------------------------------

Su Jian and Qin Fan walked out of the box and came to the terrace outside the box, overlooking the bustling crowd on the street, most of them were people who were in a hurry to do New Year's goods.

"Why did you see Fangfang with me last time? You won't go to my place? Do you like Fangfang anymore?" Su Jian asked repeatedly.

"What nonsense, why can't I understand?" Qin Fan asked in surprise when he saw him suddenly pick up this topic.

Su Jian shook his head with a smile, swallowed back what he was going to say after thinking about it, and asked across the topic: "Recently, I have enclosed two more plots of land, but my friend persuaded me to build a few houses on it, what do you see?"

"You can build it if you want, but it's better to wait two years, and now the policy doesn't stipulate that if the land is still vacant after two years, the government will take back the land. Qin Fan recalled that the regulations seemed to be four years later.

"If you build a batch now, you can also earn some. Su Jian hesitated. Qin Fan smiled, at this time, the land covered in Su Jian's hand was a good lot, and after the cover, it might not be so easy to get such a good lot.

"If the location is good, you can wait, and if the location is a little more remote, you can build a number of residential buildings. Qin Fan suggested, although the two said so, but they both know that it is still difficult to develop real estate, affected by the collapse of real estate in Hainan last year, it is extremely difficult for bank loans, and real estate development without the support of banks, nine times out of ten it will not be developed.

In 94, the "Decision on Deepening the Reform of the Urban Housing System" was promulgated and implemented. Since then, the housing reform has added the establishment of a housing provident fund and the development of national housing projects. The establishment of the housing provident fund is the starting point of the monetization of housing distribution and the prototype of a new housing system.

Real estate until 98 years when the government began to focus on building real estate as a pillar industry to make up for the decline in exports and sluggish domestic demand caused by the financial crisis, and issued a series of policies to stimulate real estate development in this year.

In May 98, the People's Bank of China issued the "Measures for the Administration of Personal Housing Loans", advocating loans to buy houses.

In July 98, the State Council officially announced the cessation of housing income distribution, the termination of China's welfare housing system, and the solution of the housing problem through marketization, announcing the beginning of large-scale development of the real estate market.

......

At this time, a six- or seven-year-old boy with a tiger head and a tiger brain ran out, pulling Su Jian and shouting, "Dad, grandpa called you." ”

Time flies, Su Zhaohai and his family have to rush back to the provincial capital, when parting, Su Zhaohai saw Qin Fan standing beside Lao Lin, so he asked: "Is he you......"

"He is his grandson, and Qin Fan is now studying in the provincial capital. Grandpa proudly introduced.

"Hello grandpa, grandma. Qin Fan took a step forward and said hello to Senior Su and Grandma Qian Ying.

"Okay, good, Lao Lin, your grandson is very good. Su Zhaohai couldn't help but boast.

Watching the convoy heading south, my grandfather turned around and asked suspiciously, "When did Old Su know you?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Qin Fan, who returned home, saw the girl sitting in the yard, crying loudly, crying breathlessly, only Jingshi circled around her, but no one came out to coax her......
