Chapter 50: Refuting the "Brother-in-law"
"Huh?" Everyone in the room, except for Mrs. Guo's mother and daughter, all made surprised sounds. Everyone wondered if they had heard it wrong, especially the four of them, Fang Bin and Deputy Director Ning, who were not familiar with Mandarin with the Cantonese accent. But this sentence is too short, and you can guess a few points. So Mrs. Guo immediately became the focus of attention of the whole house.
"Autumn Vacation, what do you mean by that?" Guo Tianyu was the first to ask in surprise. This is simply ridiculous, how could the wife suddenly come up with such a sentence. Although it is said that this child saved Qing'er and is kind to the Guo family, he can't take him back to Hong Kong without discussing with himself. And if people have families and businesses here, is it possible to move their whole family to Hong Kong? Although this is not a troublesome matter for the Guo family, how can this matter sound so ridiculous! This is not like the behavior of a wife who has always been steady and generous.
"Sister Qiuxuan, I heard you right, right? You asked me to go back to Hong Kong with you? Fang Mingyuan was also surprised at this time, and he didn't understand how this Mrs. Guo could come out with such a thoughtless appearance.
Fang Bin was even more exaggerated, with a dumbfounded look, thinking to himself that although our family's Mingyuan saved your daughter, what is it if you bring him to Hong Kong? That's not how you dig the corners of the wall, do you? Besides, even if you want to do this, you have to ask my brother and sister-in-law for advice first, how can you bring it up directly with Mingyuan.
Mrs. Guo's face was slightly red, and she also regretted a little, why did she suddenly say what was on her mind. There is no foreshadowing in front of this, so it's no wonder that everyone is surprised one by one. In fact, on the one hand, she was out of gratitude to the other party, and wanted to give him back as much as possible; On the other hand, he felt that a smart boy like Fang Mingyuan, if he could grow up with Qing'er by his side, he would definitely be able to help his husband and daughter in the future. And it is not reassuring that such a person who knows the roots will be entrusted with important tasks in the future.
She still remembers that Officer Luo once said that she asked Fang Mingyuan at that time, and wondered if she thought about the consequences of misjudgment, Fang Mingyuan said, "Then apologize to her in public, and then compensate her for a ticket!" It's a bit embarrassing, but which one is more important than the happiness of the child's life? Although the price of a ticket is nothing to her, for a child from a rural family, it may mean that he has no pocket money for a month or two, and may even be beaten. This can only show the nature-nature-kindness of this teenager.
At this time, the curtain was lifted, and Fang Ya walked in with a pot of hot water. Fang Bin hurriedly jumped up, took the hot water, and said in a low voice, "Second brother, don't go out yet." ”
"Huh?" Fang Ya is stunned, is there anything else you need to stay here? But he is not that dull person, looking at Fang Bin's appearance, he knew in his heart that something was not good for Fang Bin, so he sat on Fang Bin's seat quietly. Fang Bin refilled the tea for everyone present. Then he sat down beside Fang Ya. Deputy Director Ning and the three of them looked at the two brothers strangely, why didn't these two adults care about the child's affairs. Mrs. Guo has already made a request, but these two are sitting here without saying a word, is it possible to really let that young man decide for himself?
At the same time, I only heard Mrs. Guo say: "Tianyu, you listen to me first." Mingyuan, would you like to go back to Hong Kong with me, where you can enjoy a more haode education, a broader vision, a freer life, I promise to treat you as a younger brother, let you grow up in Hong Kong. I think you'll achieve more than you would be here. Mingyuan, with your ingenuity, I believe you must understand that this is a rare opportunity, right? Would you like to come with me? As long as you agree, I can help you settle in Hong Kong, and even your family members can arrange for them to enter Hong Kong in the future. ”
The people present were even more shocked by these words, and the three of Deputy Director Ning shouted wildly in their hearts, this kid is so lucky! It's a step to the sky! Before Fang Mingyuan came back, they had already had a preliminary understanding of Fang Mingyuan's family situation from Fang Ya's mouth. Knowing that his parents were workers at the Qinxi Calendering Equipment Factory in Haizhuang Town, Pingchuan County, Qinxi Province, which was just a little better than the countryside, he was now stepping on the world-famous Oriental Pearl Hong Kong, and became a distinguished guest invited by the famous patriotic Hong Kong businessman Kwok's Shipping Group, and could go to school and even live there for a long time. Even his family can go over with him, how can such a good thing not be his turn!
Fang Ya and Fang Bin also looked at Fang Mingyuan nervously, waiting for his answer. Mrs. Guo's conditions can be described as generous, but whether to go or not must be Fang Mingyuan's own decision. Although Hong Kong is good, in the hearts of the two, compared with the capital, it is not much better. At the beginning, Vice Minister Su Huandong proposed to send Mingyuan to Jingshan School, but he didn't go, this Hong Kong is even more far away from Qinxi Province, and it is even more unfamiliar with the place, so it is better to take care of the family with a sister-in-law in the capital.
And Fang Bin had another thought in his heart, Su Aijun had inadvertently said to him yesterday, with Mingyuan's Japanese level and his current income, if he wants to study in Japan, it is also a good choice. After all, the level of education there is much higher than that in China. There is the Su family operating here in China, and there is the "Juvenile Monthly" operating in Japan, and this matter should be nine out of ten. If Fang Mingyuan had this plan, he would have prepared early.
Fang Mingyuan lowered his head and groaned for a moment, then raised his head to look at Mrs. Guo's eyes full of expectation and said: "I understand Sister Qiuxuan's kindness, but I can only live up to your expectations, this is the place where I was born and raised, and I will definitely go to Hong Kong in the future, but I don't have the idea of going and settling there now." Sister Qiuxuan, you can rest assured, at most a year or two, at least half a year, I will visit you and Qing'er in Hong Kong. When the time comes, I hope you can show me a glimpse of the beautiful scenery of Hong Kong. ”
"Humph!" Guo Tianyu snorted coldly on the side in displeasure. Fang Mingyuan's rejection of his wife's proposal made him a little unexpected, making him feel that this kid was a little too uninteresting. Such a rare opportunity, others couldn't ask for it, but he gave it up without care. This couldn't help but make him feel a little unhappy in his heart and hurt his Guo family's face a little.
"Fang Mingyuan, do you know what Hong Kong is?" It doesn't mean that Qiu Xuan opened his mouth, Guo Tianyu had already asked.
"I know that Hong Kong is a free port and that Hong Kong does not impose tariffs on imports other than cigarettes, spirits and fuel for power. Hong Kong's economy is known for its free trade, low tax rates and low government-dry policies. Hong Kong is a financial center, an international shipping center and a regional trade center in the Asia-Pacific region and even in the world, and has an irreplaceable superior position in many neighboring countries and regions. Moreover, Hong Kong is one of the transportation and tourism centers in the Asia-Pacific region, and is the gateway to the mainland for business and tourism. Hong Kong is an important international commercial port with a well-developed shipping industry. It has shipping links with 460 ports in more than 100 countries and regions, forming a perfect maritime transportation network with Hong Kong as the hub and routes to five continents and three oceans. Fang Mingyuan replied with his head held high.
"Did you know that there are six well-known Asian universities in Hong Kong, including the University of Hong Kong, whose qualifications are recognized by all countries. If you go to school in Hong Kong, as long as you have outstanding academic performance, it can be said that entering the university is a certainty. And in the mainland, as far as I know, it is very difficult to go to a university. It's even harder to get into an internationally recognized university! Although Guo Tianyu was surprised that Fang Mingyuan knew a lot about the situation in Hong Kong, he still asked, "And if you are in Hong Kong, not only can you choose a university in Hong Kong, but you can also easily go to Shijie countries to study, how can you enjoy staying in the mainland?" And when you graduate from university in the future, whether it is the difficulty of employment, the level of salary, and the future development prospects, it is much better than if you stay in the mainland and enter those dull enterprises! You can take your future into your own hands, and not hand it over to the assigned officials! ”
"Tianyu!" Mrs. Guo exclaimed softly, there are other people here, and it is not appropriate to say these words.
"I know what you're talking about!" Fang Mingyuan said calmly, "Compared with the mainland, Hong Kong has its superiority in many aspects, and I can't deny this. But please don't dismiss the mainland as useless. Without the support of the mainland, Hong Kong would not be as prosperous as it is today! The future of Hong Kong is not only in the hands of Hong Kong people, but also in the hands of our mainlanders. Without the mainland's supply of water and food, Hong Kong would not be self-sufficient, and it would not be possible to rely entirely on imports. At the same time, Hong Kong's population is limited, its geographical area is limited, and its market is naturally limited, so when you exhaust the markets in Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, and the United States, you will find that only the mainland is the fundamental market that Hong Kong can rely on the most. If the mainland is prosperous, Hong Kong will be prosperous! It is true that there is a big gap between the mainland and Hong Kong today, and there are deficiencies in all aspects, but ten or twenty years from now, if you look back at today, you will find how ridiculous your understanding will be today. ”
"General nonsense!" In front of so many people, being refuted by a teenager in front of him, Guo Tianyu was really a little embarrassed on his face, but he had the heart to continue to debate with Fang Mingyuan, and the time for the provincial-government-banquet was coming soon......
