Chapter 596: Zhonghai City
In just one day, the news of the imminent evacuation spread rapidly, and everyone was panicked.
Fortunately, there was no confusion.
Hedong is still in a semi-military wartime state, soldiers can be seen everywhere on the road, the atmosphere is serious, no matter how chaotic it is, it will not be able to go there.
At dinner, David Chen asked about it.
Chen Shouyi said:
"It's nothing, it's just that there are some safety hazards in the east of the river, which is to be classified as a military restricted area, and everyone must evacuate!"
"Then where will we retreat?" Mother Chen sighed and said, fortunately, this kind of thing has been experienced a lot in the past two years, and there is not much panic.
It's just that the hotel is finally improving, and the business is getting hotter and hotter, and now it's going to be left behind, so it's inevitable that I'm a little distressed.
It's not a matter of money or not, and now the family is not short of money.
The hotel is a career for them, and running a popular and well-known restaurant is very fulfilling.
In the future, those good customers with a kind attitude and good speech will never be found again!
"I don't know yet, I'll call and ask later!" Chen Shouyi swallowed his meal and said, he didn't care about moving there, it was almost the same anyway.
After dinner, he dialed the phone number of the provincial government, said a few words, and hung up:
"Go to Zhonghai and depart the morning after tomorrow. ”
"To Zhonghai, so far?" Mother Chen said, and then remembered something: "By the way, you go to the eldest aunt's house and inform them to go together when the time comes!"
Chen Shouyi naturally had no opinion, and soon he rushed to his aunt's house, and was immediately greeted warmly into the house as a VIP.
"Hey, auntie, don't pour tea, I'll just sit down and leave. Chen Shouyi saw his aunt pouring tea, and quickly got up from the sofa and refused.
"What are you doing in such a hurry!" the eldest aunt smiled, still pouring her own tea.
"You are such a big person, why do you have time to come here today?" said cousin Chen Yuwei, sitting next to her, laughing and quipping.
"It's all just a false name, no matter how big a person is, aren't you not my sister?" Chen Shouyi said.
"That's pretty much it!"
"Have you eaten?" asked the eldest aunt, handing over the tea.
Chen Shouyi took the teacup and said, "I've eaten it a long time ago." ”
After chatting for a few words, Chen Shouyi quickly explained his intentions.
The eldest aunt hesitated for a while, but still politely refused: "My unit also has arrangements here, and the house will be divided when the time comes, so I won't go with you." ”
Of course, she knew in her heart that as long as she followed her uncle's family, she would definitely not suffer a loss, and she didn't have to worry about anything in the house.
These are things that are a word for Shouyi.
But I still don't want to take advantage of this, my uncle's family is developed, but she is a little estranged, except for a trip to the New Year, she has never been to the door, and she has not advertised Shouyi everywhere as her uncle and nephew.
Chen Shouyi persuaded a few words, but found that he couldn't persuade him, so he didn't persuade again, and asked the unit where the eldest aunt worked, and was ready to re-establish contact when the time came.
......
Early in the morning of the third day.
A truck and a black sedan stopped at the door, and four military warriors jumped out of the truck.
"Hello Mr. Chen!" an officer saluted: "On the orders of the chief, we are here to help you move." ”
"Don't bother...... That's hard work for you. Chen Shouyi stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
"It's not hard, it's not hard!" The officer was a little flattered, his face turned red, and his whole person was not good, and his hands were a little trembling when he shook hands...... This is the hand that can kill the barbarian god:
"Yes...... To be able to serve Mr. Chen, this is my ...... Our pleasure!"
......
"Dad, you don't need to bring furniture, there will definitely be arrangements there. ”
"Mom, what do you want to keep with the basin, toothbrush, towel, etc.?"
"I said you are not annoying, good things, why don't you want them, you have packed up your things?" Seeing Chen Shouyi talking non-stop beside him, Chen's mother said impatiently, it was really too long-winded.
I've already packed it up.
Everything is thrown into the space, and it takes a few seconds to finish, clean and trouble-free.
Chen Shouyi opened his mouth, and finally said honestly: "Then I'll go back to the bedroom." ”
......
At eight o'clock, the convoy began to depart.
The trucks on the road lined up in a long queue with no end in sight, and it was busy.
Sitting in the limousine, Chen Shouyi looked back at Hedong, which was gradually moving away, and felt a little inexplicable sentimentality in his heart, this city that left countless memories, it is estimated that this is the last time he will see it, and the next time he comes, he may only see a ruin.
Zhonghai is not far from Hedong, with a straight-line distance of about 1560 kilometers.
After driving slowly for nearly four hours, the car has entered Zhonghai City.
This most prosperous city in the Great Xia Kingdom before the mutation is now dilapidated, and it is not much better than Hedong.
The roads are potholed and ruins can be seen from time to time, and it is clear that there have been many disasters in the past two years
"Zhonghai is like this!" Chen Mu had a trace of inexplicable sadness on her face.
Chen Shouyi knew that his mother was from Zhonghai, and several uncles were also from Zhonghai, but he had never been back or seen since he could remember.
I heard that because of my grandmother's death, there was a lot of trouble, and I had a very bad relationship with several uncles, and I haven't moved for more than ten years.
"Or I'll meet you then!" Chen Dawei said.
Mother Chen hesitated and nodded lightly: "It's okay to go and see it, so many years have passed." ”
Chen Shouyi and Chen Xingyue glanced at each other and did not speak.
The affairs of the older generation, he still doesn't mix.
......
After passing through a continuous industrial area, the car drove into a residential area.
This generation is obviously newly built, and there are hardly many pedestrians on the road, and since the change, logistics restrictions, employment impacts, and safety problems have made the originally huge city no longer livable, and the population has shifted to the suburbs in large numbers.
It didn't take long for the car to pull into a villa area.
"Mr. Chen, it's here!" the car stopped at the door of a villa, and a soldier driving the car said respectfully.
A few people walked down.
Someone was already waiting outside.
"I am Zhang Feng, deputy senior official of Zhonghai Province, and on behalf of Zhonghai City, I welcome Mr. Chen. A middle-aged man strode over and said enthusiastically.
"Senior official Zhang, I've been waiting for a long time, I can't care about it. Chen Shouyi stepped forward, he had already experienced this kind of scene, and he was already familiar with it.
"It should be, it should be, after knowing the news that Mr. Chen is coming here, our city government has been looking forward to it for a long time, and the senior officials are going to come in person, but before leaving, there happened to be something delayed, and he specially told me that Mr. Chen must feel the warmth and sincerity of our Zhonghai City, and feel at home. ”
"That's so kind!"
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Senior Officer Zhang shook hands with Chen's father and Chen's mother, and then politely said goodbye.
