In the room, the old man lying down, with sparse gray hair, wearing a pair of reading glasses, closed his eyes and recuperation, his complexion was not as good-looking as Old Man Gu. It is also medium in height, slightly fat, and has a relatively large belly.

"Here we go." Old Man Jin slowly opened his eyes and turned his face to look at Li Yuanlang. Don't look at his lack of energy, but his eyes are sharp, like two rays of lightning emitting a compelling cold, which makes people tremble.

Fortunately, Li Yuanlang had seen the world, and he was as calm as ever, and he was not affected by Old Man Jin's sharp eyes, he bowed to Old Man Jin very respectfully, and said hello: "Grandpa Jin, Happy New Year." ”

It's a year before the New Year, and it's not too late to pay New Year's greetings. Li Yuanlang followed Jin Weixin's call, after all, Old Man Jin and Old Man Gu were of the same age, and their official titles were about the same when they were in power, they called them brothers, Li Yuanlang couldn't scream blindly, and then lowered Old Man Gu's rank for no reason and became a laughing stock.

"What are you holding?" Old Man Jin nodded and didn't move, but asked when he saw the wooden lacquer box that Li Yuanlang was carrying.

"Bringing you a small gift is a little bit of gratitude from the younger generation." Li Yuanlang presented his hands in front of Old Man Jin.

"You're a township cadre, can I guess what's in here? Ginseng or reishi mushroom right? ”

Not to mention, Mr. Jin is really discerning and guesses accurately. Indeed, the lacquer box contains a wild Ganoderma lucidum that is more than 200 years old.

Li Yuen Long honored the old man Gu with a 300-year-old wild ginseng and gave it to the old man Jin wild Ganoderma lucidum as a meeting gift, which is a good thing to nourish the body, especially for the elderly.

"Grandpa Jin, you are really sharp-eyed, you can see through it at a glance, and the gift I gave you is a wild lingzhi that is more than two hundred years old." Li Yuanlang opened the lacquer box, revealing the appearance of the Ganoderma lucidum inside.

This Ganoderma lucidum is purple mushroom, the appearance is kidney-shaped, the cap is wood-plugged, there is a stalk, the height and width are about 17 cm, the stalk is lateral, the shape is long, the cap and the stipe have black shells, the surface has a lacquer-like luster, and there are annular ribs and radial wrinkles, the fungus flesh is rusty brown, the fungus tube is hard, the mouth of the tube is round with the same color as the fungus meat, the color is similar to the fungus tube, the spores are brown, ovate, and the inner wall has a significant small wart smell and slightly fragrant.

"You must have put a lot of thought and money into preparing this thing, right?" Old Man Jin raised his eyelids and only glanced at them cursoly, his expression was not angry or happy, as Jin Weixin said, he was a little unhappy with Li Yuanlang sending things, and it was a precursor to anger.

"I didn't spend much money, you know, our Shuiming Township is located in a mountainous area, and this kind of thing grows on the mountain, but it takes a lot of thought."

Old Man Jin thought that Li Yuanlang would quibble and make up all kinds of reasons, but he didn't expect that Li Yuanlang would take the initiative to admit that he had put a lot of thought into it, which surprised him a little. To be honest, what hasn't he seen of a person of his status? Even if he got thousands of years of wild Ganoderma lucidum, he wouldn't be surprised.

"Tell me, what did it cost you?" Old Man Jin's eyes were like torches, revealing a cold air.

"This Ganoderma lucidum is picked in the old village of our township, historical records record that it is the place where Emperor Gaozu once lived, and the place where the Ganoderma lucidum was picked is located in the dense forest of the north mountain of the old village, where there are still historical relics, and I also brought some soil, you see, black soil, oily and shiny."

Under Li Yuanlang's reminder, Old Man Jin leaned forward, looking at the contents of the lacquer box, he didn't look at Ganoderma lucidum, but looked at the scarce black soil inside, and couldn't help but sigh.

Why?

The old man Jin is a Manchu, and the reason why he changed his surname to Jin is because the clansmen are afraid of reprisals, and the change of dynasties has always been inevitable, and it is inevitable to go through a bloody storm, especially the royal family of the previous dynasty, which is the preferred target of killing. Therefore, before the fall of the dynasty, the whole clan either changed to the surname Jin, or the surname Zhao or Luo, in order to avoid cruelty.

The imperial bloodline of the Jin family can be traced back to more than eight generations. It's not a close branch, but it was also a yellow belt identity in the past, a royal blood relative. Now there is a strange phenomenon, all those who follow the royal family name, high-profile hype, is nothing more than borrowing people's curiosity psychology to win attention. They are often distantly branched or have a deceptive nature of misappropriation. And the real descendants of the royal family are very low-key and unassuming, trying their best to avoid their special identity.

Don't eat the food of your ancestors, and support yourself. is like Mr. Jin's family, who even refused to talk about this topic. But in his bones, there is still a burst of worship for his ancestors who have galloped across the country and ruled the country for more than 200 years.

Wild Lingzhi can't arouse Old Man Jin's interest. But that little handful of black soil. But it made Mr. Jin's heart surging with emotion.

He raised his hand and motioned for Li Yuenlang to deliver the box to his eyes, twisted a handful of black soil in his hand, put it under the tip of his nose, and sniffed the smell of the handful of black soil.

The aroma of the earth did taste different in his mind. Suddenly, there was a fierce scene of the ancestors riding a high-headed horse, running between the white mountains and black waters, wielding knives and fighting to fight the country.

Old Man Jin was particularly excited, and he saw that his fingers were trembling, his face was ruddy, and his eyes were bright. After a long time, he was stunned and said, "Young man, please forgive me for my gaffe." I am an old party member, born in the old society, grew up under the red flag, and it was the party that gave me a new life and a new life. Although my ancestors gave blood, it was the party that really allowed me to enjoy a happy old age, not my powerful ancestors. ”

"I understand your feelings, Grandpa Kim." Li Yuanlang said solemnly: "The party has given us faith and a prosperous life. People can be ruthless and ruthless, and we cannot be bound by our respect and respect for our ancestors because of faith. Filial piety first, our party members worship the ancestors, is the continuation of the tradition of filial piety first, I think, this does not conflict with our beliefs, and your respected old party members do not contradict the purpose, although you can release your feelings to express your feelings, which is a very good inheritance for you and your next generation. ”

Old Man Jin carefully tasted Li Yuanlang's words, and couldn't help nodding and praising him: "You young man, you are worthy of being the secretary of the party committee, you have a set of theoretical levels, and you have done a good job in party affairs and ideological work." So let me ask you about the government's governing thinking, what are your views on your township and the old village? ”

He actually asked this to hear about the current situation of Jiudi Village, but he was embarrassed to mention it directly, but he took Shuiming Township with him.

It's really a cunning old fox, who speaks with a twist, and even those who are slow to react can't understand his true intentions.

Li Yuanlang said: "Grandpa Jin, the development of Shuiming Township has stagnated in recent years, and Jiudi Village is also facing such a problem. There are many mountains and little land, and the common people can only rely on the nearby mountains to pick mountain products to earn a living, and there is no effective scale. At the same time, the traffic in Shuiming Township is underdeveloped, there are many mountain roads, and the problem of inconvenient transportation is prominent. The township is now making every effort to promote agricultural cooperatives, organize the common people into a community, face risks and challenges together, and get rich together. The township has applied for a road repair fund from the Municipal Transportation Bureau, and has also won a part from the county, and the two are added together to prepare to build a section of the road from Shuiming Township to the highway, and the funds are temporarily sufficient. And this ......"

After that, Li Yuenlong took out a small notebook, which contained a herbarium of hurting grass. He then explained the utility and prospects of the wounding grass.

The more Old Man Jin listened, the more interested he became, especially the hurting grass, he carefully pinched it in his hand and looked at the sunlight repeatedly, and couldn't help but sigh: "This little thing still has such an effect, it is a medicinal herb in the hands of good people, and it becomes a drug in the hands of bad people." The world is full of wonders, not in the nature of this thing, but in the use of human character, which is really mysterious. ”

Then, the old man slowly stood up from the recliner, Li Yuanlang gently helped him, the old man did not stop him, to be honest, his body was really not as strong as the old man Gu, he walked a little staggering, his body was slightly rickety, and he was a little panting.

With his hands behind his back, Mr. Jin walked to the window, overlooking the winter scenery outside the window, and said slowly: "I think your idea of governing Shuiming Township is still good, using local materials, vigorously developing the mountain product processing industry, as well as this hurtful grass breeding industry, building roads, these can bring long-term benefits." However, I always feel that you have a bit of a single place here, and are there any other industries that can be explored? For example, in the old village, the relics of the old days are still there, and you can consider developing tourism projects. ”

Li Yuanlang took a step forward, stood not far behind Old Man Jin, and elaborated: "Thank you Grandpa Jin for reminding me, I will vigorously promote this when I go back." In fact, we have already tried to engage in tourism development. ”

After a pause, Li Yuanlang continued: "I went to Hailang Village a while ago and found that there is a lot of snow in winter, and the natural snow scene can be comparable to Xuexiang. I have already discussed with the village secretary and director that I want to develop Hailang Village into a pillar industry with the characteristics of folk tourism. For this reason, the last time I was in the provincial capital, I made a special report with Director Dong of the Provincial Tourism Bureau, and Director Dong was very interested and promised to personally visit Hailang Village for field investigation and guidance after a while. At present, Hailang Village has been reported by several news media in Beijing, and a large number of tourists have come to watch the snow scene and enjoy the pristine nature. Moreover, we can not only focus on winter, summer and autumn, but also make a big difference, develop more tourism projects, enrich the enthusiasm and projects of tourists, and let the people of the village earn more. ”

"Your idea is good and unique. As it says in the novel The Siege of the City, the people outside the city want to go in, and the people in the city want to get out. People who live in big cities are tired of the busy traffic and the modernization of high-rise buildings, and they miss the natural landscape very much. On the other hand, rural people prefer the convenience of the city, which has caused an interesting phenomenon that people in the city want to go to the countryside and people in the countryside want to go to the city. Old Man Jin pondered for a moment and said: "There are not many historical relics in your place, these are the only few, and at the same time use this as a gimmick and make more fuss, which can not only make the people's pockets bulge, but also enrich the tourism resources of your township, the best of both worlds." ”

"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible."

After a conversation with Li Yuanlang, Mr. Jin was very touched, and his attitude was not as serious as before, let alone angry.

The gift that Li Yuenlong brought to him, he cherished it very much, more than 200 years of wild Ganoderma lucidum, counting that their family was still ruling this river and mountain at that time, it was of great commemorative significance. At the same time, he called someone to come over and keep the contents of the lacquer box, and repeatedly told him not to mess with it.

And Jin Weixin, who had been nervous outside the door, saw the staff coming in and out, so he asked what the mood of the old man inside was.

Knowing that the old man's mood was high, and his spirit suddenly increased a lot, Jin Weixin couldn't help but be secretly surprised, what did Li Yuanlang and the old man say? Let the old man change so much?
