Chapter 222, confirm that this is really my mother
"Mother, welcome to the Raging Owl."
Gu Hang's voice woke Wang Qi up from his stunned state.
She saw Gu Hang's open hands and walked towards her.
She subconsciously opened her hand and hugged Gu Hang.
But in her heart, there was a very strange feeling.
Something is wrong, something is very wrong.
The hug between the two was not close, just a little contact, and Gu Hang let go of his hand.
He introduced to Wang Qi: "This is Fuxing City. ”
The place where the landing spacecraft landed was the airport of Fuxing City. There is a place to open up and land a special landing spacecraft.
From here, you can see the whole city.
To be honest, the Fuxing City in front of him did not make Wang Qi feel very much. She has traveled many worlds, and the construction of the city of Fuxing City seems to be just that. Not to mention compared with the capital of the Star District, the Garden World Flying Wing, it is the second-tier cities of many ordinary planets, which are far more developed than Fuxing City.
However, she hadn't forgotten that this was originally a wasteland world.
Now, at least nothing she could see, she couldn't see half of the wasteland.
It's not pretty, but it's orderly and the streets are neat.
All these changes have only happened in a year and a half, and they have been shaped by their own sons.
Even the well-informed Ms. Wang Qi has to admit that this is definitely a very outstanding performance.
Thinking of Gu Hang's temperament, it is completely different from what he remembers.
Is this really the career that the waste son who has always made her angry and feels that she has insulted her and her deceased husband's genes can do?
Wang Qi, who was in a complicated mood, boarded a wind falcon with Gu Hang, and after a while, he came to the Alliance Building.
It is the tallest building in Fuxing City, a former Union Parliament building. At present, this eight-storey building is Gu Hang's official residence and his office.
On the top floor is the Council Hall, now renamed the Governor's Hall, which is dedicated to large meetings of the Alliance.
On the same floor, Gu Hang opened up another more casual space, which was the governor's office.
Generally speaking, Gu Hang's daily office is here.
Deal with some documents, think about some things, meet some people, hold some small secret meetings......
Behind the office, which is connected, are several rooms. Living room, bedroom, cloakroom, toilet, bathroom...... Of course, these life-oriented houses are also designed for Gu Hang.
The decoration is not prosperous. Although there are all the things that should be there, it is obvious that Governor Gu is not particularly pursuing quality, as long as he is comfortable.
Under the leadership of his son, after Wang Qi visited them all, he stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window of Gu Hang's office, looking at the panoramic view of the city, and his heart drifted far away.
She always had 'two' sons in her mind.
One was in her memory, and the other was what she saw now.
The son she remembered, who liked beautiful things, always wore expensive and complicated clothes, and lived in a place that was always splendid, and liked to use these external things to cover up his inner weakness.
The son in front of her, dressed in a proper military uniform, has a straight figure, and there is no other decoration; The residence is also very simple, casual and simple, and even the colors are quite monotonous.
The son in her memory was cowardly, always full of resentment, with low eyes and low hands, incompetent but pretentious.
But what she sees at the moment is that she has achieved a lot of things, but she is peaceful and calm, with her own majesty and full of bearing.
These two figures appeared in Wang Qi's mind at the same time, but there was no way to overlap them.
"What are you thinking?" Gu Hang's gentle voice sounded beside him, and he walked over with a cup of hot tea in his own hand, "I don't have anything good to entertain you here, this was given to me by my cousin when he was there before." ”
He took the hot tea from his son and took a sip, but he didn't care about the taste of the tea.
She said to Gu Hang: "You didn't like to drink tea before. ”
"Actually, I don't like to drink it now." Gu Hang smiled, "Just remember that you like it." ”
"You wouldn't have cared about that before."
Gu Hang was silent for a moment and said, "I've changed a lot, right?" ”
"Yes, in less than two years after coming out to practice, can there be such earth-shaking changes? If you had known, you should have let yourself out and exercise. ”
"It depends on the timing." Gu Hang said, "I myself was surprised by the changes in myself, in the few months when I came to the Angry Owl Star Road, I seemed to have figured out a lot of things at once. Perhaps, this is the epiphany mentioned in some legends. ”
"Your epiphany, why can't it come earlier......"
Gu Hang was very calm: "I think it's just right." If it weren't for such a disheartened experience and regaining fighting spirit, it would be unrealistic to want to have an epiphany in vain. From this point of view, I would like to thank you, Mother. Before leaving, your slap, and the current situation that the family really didn't give any support after coming to the Angry Owl Star, and the pressure that if you don't do well, the governor will die...... Without these, where would the changes come from? ”
Hearing this, Wang Qi finally felt a sense of familiarity: resentment.
Her impression of her son always seems to be complaining. Complaining that money is not enough to spend, complaining that others are disobedient, complaining that things are not going as expected......
This familiar feeling made her blood pressure rise a little.
This has always been her most disappointed point in her son.
"Don't be weird when you speak, just say it if you think I, my family, and my family are not good enough for you."
Gu Hang smiled heartily: "I don't have yin and yang weirdness, aren't I just saying it directly?" ”
"Oh, then you just say it directly, what do you say, 'thank your mother'?"
"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to say thank you, but to the bottom of my heart."
Now that he has talked about this, Gu Hang's attitude has become more calm.
He stared into his mother's eyes and said seriously:
"First of all, I would like to thank you for giving me this physical life, which is the most important thing, and I would not be able to stand here without that."
"Secondly, I want to thank the identity of the family, if it is not, no matter how dilapidated the Raging Star is, no matter how it is a wasteland world, the position of governor will not fall on me, and I will not ignore the help brought by the family identity."
"But that's all I can thank you for."
"I came to the Angry Owl alone, with only a letter of appointment and support from the Imperial Navy. I don't need to thank you and your family for these things, after all, you were so opposed to me being the governor in the first place. ”
"From outside the city, in the wilderness, I have started from scratch, defeated marauders, destroyed aberrant monsters, and killed rebels. I built factories and cities out of thin air from the white ground, and recovered the original power of this planet. I don't have to thank you and your family for that. ”
"I have swept away the great threats that have arisen on the planet, from cult heresy, to the Greenskin Scourge, to the Demon Descending; I led my army up to the stars and slew the Orc Fleet Overseers; My loyal subordinates have banished the mighty demons of the Great Impurity. I don't need to thank you and your family for that. ”
Hearing this, Wang Qi seemed to have guessed what Gu Hang was going to say, but she still couldn't believe it, no matter how many turbulent waves were set off in her heart, she just stared at Gu Hang, waiting for him to say the next words.
Gu Hang didn't disappoint her either, and said calmly and firmly: "You see, I need to thank the part, is a cup of hot tea, a voice of concern, an army sent to worry about your safety, and close cooperation with the family caravan in the future?" I am expressing my gratitude with practical actions, and you will always be my mother. ”
"But that's the end of it."
"There are so many things that we don't need to thank you and your family for the reconstruction and development of the Raging Star. Therefore, I think that the relationship between Angry Xiaoxing and the Gu family is not very big, and the relationship between me and the Gu family is not very related except for the relationship with your mother and son. ”
Wang Qi took a deep breath and stared at Gu Hang like a falcon: "Are you going to disassociate yourself from the Gu family?" Don't you want the position of the Gu clan patriarch too? ”
Gu Hang was still calm: "Look, you don't seem to be able to listen to what I said earlier. The mother-child relationship between me and you will not change, I respect you and love you, but there is no other relationship, right? Could it be that the development of the Raging Star is half related to the Gu family? As for the identity of the Gu clan patriarch you mentioned later...... That's another thing. You never intended to hand over the entire family to me right away. On the contrary, if you want to achieve your plan, I am the patriarch and your only choice. ”
"In other words, Mother, it was you who begged me to be the patriarch, not me."
Wang Qi gritted her teeth: "This is your previous dream!" ”
"But it's not the dream right now." Gu Hang stretched out his hands, "I don't want to talk to you about dreams, because it's too big, like talking crazy." ”
Looking at her son's appearance as if he was about to embrace the entire starry sky in her arms, Ms. Wang Qi could be sure that her son had changed, completely changed, and was no longer at all what she had known in the past.
It was something she had dreamed of happening, but when it did, she felt a sense of loss.
But she quickly reined in her inexplicable emotions.
This must be a great thing.
After all, she is a person who has been up and down in the business sea for decades, and she is a person who can keep what her deceased husband left behind without being snatched away by her relatives.
She regained her composure.
"No matter what your dream is, becoming the head of the Gu family is all good and harmless."
"Of course, I completely agree, so I didn't object to your plan, and I sent troops to make sure that there were no problems with the plan and that you were safe."
"Then you can be your Governor of the Angry Owl Star, the identity of the head of the Gu family, you hang, attend some meetings when necessary, and don't worry about other things."
"It's for the best." Gu Hangdao, "It's just that I, the head of the Gu family, can do nothing, but theoretically, it is natural to call some family resources for the development of my planet." ”
"Didn't you say that the Angry Owl Star has nothing to do with the Gu Clan?"
"It's true, but the head of the Gu family should have this power, and I deserve it."
He meant something.
I will make you the nominal head of the house, so that you can take care of things, and you are not allowed to pay for it?
Of course, Wang Qi can also understand.
She sighed and reached out to caress her son's handsome face: "All this is your ...... in the end"
"Yes, I do." No matter what Gu Hang thinks in his heart, he always has to say this, "There are some things that you can give when you want, and I won't ask for them." I only take what I have to give, and that's never too much. ”
"Not excessive." Wang Qi withdrew his hand, "Your cousin will lead a caravan again when the time comes, and if you have any trade needs, look for her." After you build the Star Harbor, the Gu caravan will list the Angry Owl Star as a regular trade route; The Gu caravan will give the most preferential treatment to the Raging Owl as a trading partner; You have the power of the head of the house, and you can use the private amount of five million tax dollars a year, and I will not ask what the money is used for. However, if there is a good return on investment of this money, the amount of relevant funds can be increased. ”
Gu Hang's eyes really lit up now.
Not to mention anything else, this year's five million tax dollars is a great benefit!
That's all the tax that the angry star has to pay in a year!
He now confirms that this is really his own mother!
My mother said, "Let's go, have lunch with me, and I'll see your territory in the afternoon." ”
……
Lunch was hearty, with plenty of precious ingredients and wine that the Raging Star didn't produce at all.
Gu Hang can recall that basically everything is what his predecessor loved to eat.
During dinner, the mother and son chatted a little more.
It's not small talk, they don't have that much to talk about, mainly around the situation of the family.
Gu Hang provided some insights.
After the meal, the old lady also left the cook and the ingredients of a cabin for him, hoping that he could eat something good in the future.
The 30,000 soldiers who went with their mother will need a certain amount of time to get on the ship.
In the process of the army boarding the ship, Gu Hang took Ms. Wang Qi to visit the factory in Weixing City, and took Jason Morgan, the provincial governor, to take the wind falcon and quickly went to Beiqinggu Province, skimming a large field at a low altitude.
All this on the angry star made Ms. Wang Qi's eyes shine brightly.
If it was said that seeing the orderly appearance of Fuxing City before made her feel relieved, then when she saw the small scale of Weixing City, but the solid factory that continuously produces industrial products and munitions; After seeing the 200 million mu of farmland that had been reclaimed or was about to be reclaimed in Beiqinggu Province, just the consciousness of the businessman could make her quickly calculate that the Raging Star had great potential.
In addition to the investment consciousness of businessmen, a more instinctive emotion involuntarily surged into my heart:
Proud!
Although the son said a bunch of nonsense that had nothing to do with her and the Gu family, he ...... That's her son! She looked at these achievements, and naturally it would be so.
Her son has changed and couldn't be better.
