Chapter 421: Adoptive Father's Former Residence

Chapter 421: The Adoptive Father's Former Residence

……

After solving the remaining problems of Jianlibao, it was time for Guo Shouyun to leave Yangcheng. Without informing anyone, on a fairly good morning, I drove onto National Highway 25. He didn't go to Pengcheng again, but turned to National Highway No. 15, crossed Shan~tou, crossed Xia~Men, and came to Quan~Zhou, Fujian Province! Considering that it was getting late, Guo Shouyun found the best four-star hotel here to stay for one night, and the next day drove to Shi~Shishi City, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Quan~Prefecture!

"Boss, there's Xiangyun Village ahead!" Matthew reminded.

Looking at the unfamiliar street outside through the car window, Guo Shouyun nodded. Like most towns on the southeast coast, Xiangyun Village has become wealthy due to the economic development brought about by the return of overseas Chinese and Chinese capital. So, despite the name of a village, it is no less than the average small inland town.

And the reason why Guo Shouyun deliberately came here this time was to take a look at the place where his adoptive father grew up. If he could, he would follow his wishes and bring his remains back here for burial.

While Guo Shouyun was pondering, the two cars stopped outside the village committee.

Pushed the car door out, briefly looked at the red-tiled and white-walled two-story neighborhood committee in front of him, and walked in.

Seeing three or four of them walking in, and the men and women were handsome, and their temperament was obviously not the appearance of ordinary people, the village cadres on duty in the village committee were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly greeted them and asked, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"Hello, I am the person in charge of the 'Guo Jiancheng Charity Foundation', my name is Guo Shouyun!"

Guo Jiancheng Charity Foundation is a charitable fund established by Guo Shouyun in the name of his adoptive father, which belongs to the Hanhua Charity Foundation, and is dedicated to the support of the lonely and widowed elderly in Xiangyun Village, the serious illness medical treatment of Xiangyun Village residents, and the tuition expenses of poor students.

At the beginning, he converted all the nearly $6.5 million of assets left by his adoptive father into Huaxia currency as the funds for this charitable fund, and after three years of operation, this charitable fund not only did not decrease, but quadrupled in size.

"Hello, hello!"

As soon as they heard the 'Guo Jiancheng Charity Foundation', the cadres on duty immediately became enthusiastic. In the past two years, because of the donation of this charity fund, the happiness index of Xiangyun Village has risen by countless grades, and it has become the envy of dozens of brother villages and towns around. Therefore, every villager in Xiangyun Village is grateful to this foundation.

“… Your Foundation's office is on the second floor, and I'll take you there. ”

"Thank you!"

Guo Shouyun nodded.

"What's polite, your foundation is a great benefactor of our village! In the past two years, with you, the girls from the surrounding villages are willing to marry us... ”

From his words, Guo Shouyun heard enthusiasm and gratitude. So, it's inevitable that there will be some chatter, but it's not annoying.

"Lao Liu, someone from your foundation is here!"

It could be seen that this person was very familiar with the people in the Foundation's office in Xiangyun Village, and after a few simple knocks on the door, he directly pushed it open and walked in.

After following him in, in an office of about fifty square meters, a middle-aged man, two young people, and three people looked towards the door in unison.

Liu Jianming saw the tall young man with gray temples who walked in behind him, and his face showed a trace of doubt. He had not met this person among Foundation administrators. But from the temperament of the other party and the entourage behind him, it can be seen that the other party is obviously not an ordinary person.

"Ahh

When everyone was unprepared, there were suddenly screams full of joy and surprise in their ears.

Liu Jianming trembled in his heart, turned his head and scolded a young girl in a pink top and an apple face: "Xiao Zhao, what are you smoking!"

The employees under him fell off the chain at a critical moment, which was really embarrassing for him, the leader. Especially in front of so many people.

Zhao Tingting rarely ignored her leader, but held her hands in front of her chest, took a few steps forward like a fan, stared at Guo Shouyun with bright eyes, and looked at the latter with straight hair.

"Are you Bruce Guo?" Bruce Guo ??!from Matrix Holdings, Ruby, Hanhua Holdings, Apple, Guo's, Google, Phoenix, Enron Pacific, etc.

"You know me?"

Zhao Tingting nodded again and again like a chicken, "I have seen your speech at Hong Kong Chinese University, and you are my most admired idol." Can you sign it for me?"

Looking at the paper and pen that appeared in the palm of the other party as if by magic, Guo Shouyun was stunned for a moment, then smiled, took it and wrote his name and a few short words of blessing in the blank space of the notebook.

"Boss, I didn't expect you to have admirers here!" Wu Xiaojing, who was standing behind him, chuckled.

At this time, after finally understanding the identity of the young man standing opposite, Liu Jianming also hurriedly walked over.

"Hello. I am the director of the Xiangyun Village Office of the 'Guo Jiancheng Charitable Foundation', and my name is Liu Jianming. This is Zhao Tingting, our treasurer, and this is Huang Xiaoqiang, our clerk. In addition, two clerks went out to find out about the situation of a poor household, and they were not here for the time being. Liu Jianming said respectfully and solemnly.

Guo Shouyun nodded, shook hands with him, and then greeted the remaining Huang Xiaoqiang.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just stopping by to have a look... By the way, thank you for bringing us over. ”

From the reactions of Liu Jianming and several people before, Qian Yongpei, who understood that these people were not ordinary, had a more restrained attitude than before.

"You're welcome, that's what I should be. … You talk first, and I'm ready to call me if there's anything!"

After waving his hand, Qian Yongpei walked out. After closing the door, he thought about it and did not go back to the office, but walked to the village chief's office next to it.

"Boss, you sit!"

Huang Xiaoqiang obediently moved a chair over.

"Thank you!" Guo Shouyun waved his hand, "Don't be so restrained, everyone sit down!"

After he said a few words, Liu Jianming and the three sat down.

"Are there any old people in the village who know about my adoptive father's family?"

We visited the old people in the village, and more than a dozen of them had an impression of Mr. Guo Jiancheng. However, they couldn't tell where the Guo family ended up!" After nodding, Liu Jianming replied.

Over the years, he has been investigating the whereabouts of his adoptive father's family through his connections. But after more than half a century, coupled with the chaos of war and chaos at that time, the means of communication were poor, and trying to find the Guo family in the vast sea of people was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack!

"Can you take me to the old site of the Guo family?"

"Of course! However, the former site of the Guo family is gone. ”

"It's okay, I just want to see!"

Liu Jianming nodded, and got up and walked out of the office with Guo Shouyun and his party. And just as they came to the hallway, a middle-aged man in a black coat happened to walk over.

As soon as the other party saw Guo Shouyun, he immediately walked over enthusiastically.

"Hello, hello! I am Qian Zhengwei, the village chief of Xiangyun Village, and I am very grateful to Mr. Guo for his charitable donation to our village!"

Looking at the village chief who was holding his right hand with both hands and was extremely enthusiastic, Guo Shouyun smiled, "You are polite, if you want to thank you, you should thank my adoptive father even more." Everything I do is his last wish!"

"Mr. Guo Jiancheng's kindness, we will never forget Xiangyun Village. However, we must also keep your kindness in mind!"

The last wish is the last wish, but the one who is willing to abide by the will and is not greedy for money is the real man. But what he didn't know was that donating to Xiangyun Village was just Guo Shouyun's own idea, not Guo Jiancheng's last wish at all.

“… That's right, Mr. Guo. I've got people down to prepare lunch. At noon, whatever you say, you have to eat here with us, even if we have a little heart in Xiangyun Village!"

The simplicity and enthusiasm of rural people made Guo Shouyun, who was also born in this environment in his previous life, unable to refuse.

"Then bother!"

"You're welcome. It is a great pleasure for us to have the opportunity to thank you as a great benefactor, how can we say that it is bothering?... By the way, where are you going?"

"I want to go to the old site of my adoptive father's house!"

"I'll take you there, I'm familiar here!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, and did not refuse.

The group left the village committee and did not drive. After about twenty minutes, we stopped in front of an old school at the east end of the village.

"This is it... I heard from the elders that in the past, Lao Guo's family was a wealthy family in the village, and the bricks and tiles used in the houses were among the best in the village. Later, the eldest and second eldest of their family became officers of the Kuomintang ~ Kuomintang, took their family to the provincial capital, and never came back, and the old Guo family was vacant. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the village converted it into a primary school. Later, the Wen~ Revolution broke the four olds, and the red soldiers messed around, and a fire was burned. The old school you see now was built on the same site in '78. However, now that the children in the village have gone to the town to study, this place is empty. ”

Through the gap in the closed iron door, looking at the old school that was already overgrown with weeds and lost its vitality, Guo Shouyun turned around after a moment.

"Are there any relatives of the Guo family in the village?"

"No! Xiangyun Village has the surname Qian and Liu, and the surname Guo is their family. ”

"Why?"

"The old people in the village said that when it was still the Qing Dynasty, Guo Wenwen and his wife, that is, Guo Jiancheng's father and grandmother, came to settle down with us. So, there are no relatives in the village. ”

"The Qing Dynasty? That was hundreds of years ago. Is there anyone in the village who remembers such a distant event?"

"I don't remember it in general. However, the elders said that the Guo family and his wife did not look like a small family, and when they came, they brought an old servant with them! You think, at that time, our Xiangyun Village was either fishing or farming, and suddenly there was a rich person, how could he not remember!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, standing out from the crowd, naturally particularly eye-catching. Originally, he wanted to ask Guo Wenwen about the origin of his wife, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it. I don't even know where the Guo family went in the end, let alone this kind of 'headless public case' from a hundred years ago!

Accompanied by Qian Yongpei, after walking around the school, Guo Shouyun also gave up the idea of moving his adoptive father's bones back. There is no one in the Guo family here, and it is a lonely ghost to move back, so it is better to stay in the United States, at least he and the Lincoln family will often go to worship.
