The word "returning to the roots" has a deep-rooted idea for every Chinese diaspora.

What's more, in the 17th century, when confidence and transportation were not developed, there was a deep understanding of every Chinese living abroad.

Wearing a black windbreaker, short hair, and a pair of reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, Uncle Gen stood on the deck looking at the rough sea, and had some feelings, looking at the bare island not far away, home, Daming is about to arrive.

To be precise, this has entered the waters of the South China Sea, two years ago he left his hometown with the mentality of going to Australia to mix a bite to eat and boarded the ship of ocean Australia, from that moment his fate changed, not only met the lonely little girl Yumei on the ship, adopted as an adopted daughter, and later rose all the way to today's status.

It can be said that it is not easy to get to this point from a peasant who can't read big words, which is what many Ming scholars have to pursue after ten years of hard study, and it took them two years to get all this.

Uncle Lao Gen said to himself from the bottom of his heart, all this is good, the return it brings, if there is no good deed, he will never be able to get to this position today, maybe he will be just an ordinary worker in Australia.

Although he was reluctant to leave Manchester City with a young child waiting to be fed at home, he had to move to Hong Kong to take up a good future for his children and wife.

As the mayor of Hong Kong, such a high-level position, there is no one in the same group of immigrants as him at present, and he belongs to the first. Before leaving, President Zhou Aiguo and others personally went to the port to see him off, what an honor it is, the king of a country just to see himself off. I resigned myself from work.

On this basis alone, he must make some achievements when he takes office, otherwise how can he be worthy of the president and the officials of the country. Uncle Lao Gen is secretly determined to make some achievements to repay the president's respect.

Uncle Lao Gen is not as nervous and restrained as he was the previous times, after all, he is already a person who has served as the mayor and deputy director of the town, and he can be regarded as a person who has seen a certain amount of people in the market, and in addition, he has had contact with the president and most of the high-ranking officials in the government, so naturally his personal momentum has also changed.

"Mayor, it's windy outside. You'd better go in. Behind Uncle Lao Gen, a young man stood behind him and reminded him that he was Lao Gen's uncle's secretary. is also a Ming immigrant, but the time of immigration is only half a year, and this time he can accompany Uncle Lao Gen to take office together, which shows that he has a certain talent.

"Xiao Tao, I'm fine. It's not so weak. I was born in a poor family, and I have a good body foundation since I was a child, and I dare to work on the farm since I was a child, and you are a young man who wants to exercise hard, I heard that the voice of the voice has changed a little, is it a cold. ”

The secretary named Xiao Tao scratched his head and replied with some embarrassment: It's a little, but it's not a big deal, just drink a few glasses of boiling water. Mayor, I heard that you also went out from Daming, and you came to Australia because of the disaster in your hometown.

"yes. That year, there was a disaster and no harvest, so I followed the villagers to Guangzhou. Then I got on a ship to Australia, but they didn't, and I don't know what happened to me. When it comes to the past, Uncle Lao Gen can't help but feel a little regretful, if those villagers went to Australia like him, maybe they would be better off than him now.

Xiao Tao, who was very good at observing words, saw that the leader was a little sad, and immediately turned the topic to where to go: "Mayor, let's go in." Uncle Gen nodded in agreement.

Before going to Hong Kong to take up his post, his first stop will be to disembark in Guangzhou, rest for a day, and then board the ship with He Yu to Hong Kong for handover, because this time there is also a new team of instructors on board. Their task was to take over the training mission of Makarov and others, so they had to stay in Guangzhou for one night.

As the No. 2 person in charge of Hong Kong in the future, the mayor in charge of economy and development, it is still necessary for Uncle Lao Gen to meet with the personnel in the officialdom of the two Guangzhous, after all, he will definitely deal with each other in the future.

Twenty minutes later, the Victory steamer from Australia arrived at the Guangzhou wharf, at this time He Yu had already sent staff to the wharf to wait for the reception, after all, Uncle Gen's identity is different now, and he is also the head of a city, and the number of courtesies that should be there is still a must.

When he set foot on the land of Guangzhou again, Uncle Lao Gen still couldn't help but shed a few tears because of his homesickness, but his identity was different when he came back after two years of absence.

Looking at Uncle Gen's actions, Xiao Tao handed over a clean handkerchief to Uncle Lao Gen and reminded, "Mayor, it's time for us to get into the carriage." ”

The unusual situation on the wharf has also attracted many people as officials, especially some refugees who have been waiting for Australian recruitment in the dock area for many years, especially the ships from Australia.

From the sight of the luxurious carriage parked at the dock, many refugees who have not left it are speculating that an Australian official must be coming today, otherwise the carriage will not wait here for so long.

It wasn't until Uncle Gen, dressed in a suit, stepped off the boat that they were sure that this must be today's high-ranking official, but a few of the refugees noticed something unusual, and they looked at the carriage like many people, and when they saw Uncle Lao Gen walking forward with instructions in the groom, they suddenly felt that the person in front of them seemed to know him.

But it shouldn't be thought about, although Lao Gen went to Australia, but they still know how many catties and taels he has, Lao Bi and a few people shook their heads and couldn't be sure, but this person does look like Lao Gen.

Finally, driven by curiosity, Lao Ye shouted in the direction of the carriage, and there was a hair.

Uncle Gen, who was just about to step into the carriage, was suddenly stunned, and then looked around for the source of the sound, and Lao Ye over there was also very excited, and the actions of the person opposite showed that he did not recognize the wrong person.

It is indeed an old root, the root has hair, and the old root in the village, who has been poor all his life, is developed, and he still becomes an official in this way.

Lao Ye wanted to run in front of Lao Gen, but was stopped by the security personnel of the consulate, who kept waving at him that he was Lao Ye, and Lao Gen had already walked over with the secretary.

"Ye Ergou, it's really you, you're still alive." Uncle Gen asked a little excitedly, forgetting for a moment that it seemed a little inappropriate for him to ask such a question.

"Yes, yes, Lao Gen, I see that your appearance is developed, are you still going to leave this time?"

"Let's go, I won't leave for the time being, I will be transferred to Hong Kong as the mayor, and we will have more opportunities to meet in the future, Xiao Tao, you arrange for them, and I will have a good talk with them after I meet Chief He Yu."

"Yes, mayor," Xiao Tao looked at the tattered old leaves, a little curious, these people are the mayor's fellow villagers, this is really the complete opposite. (To be continued......)
