On the opening day of the Jianan City Investment Promotion Negotiation Conference, Yangtze River Provincial TV Station and Jianan City TV Station all made live reports. Jianan City Deputy Mayor Ye Qinglian presided over the opening ceremony, and Mayor Cheng Xiaoguang was present to deliver a speech. Wang Mengguo and Qiu Suzhen were also sitting on the rostrum as guests.

After the opening ceremony, the exhibition area organized by investment promotion bureaus in various districts and counties became lively. Everyone took out strange tricks, various publicity materials, videos and on-site commentary frequently promoted the local investment environment and preferential measures.

After Wang Mengguo and Qiu Suzhen walked off the rostrum, they were surrounded by a group of officials, warmly welcomed them to sit in their exhibition area and listen to their introduction. Wang Mengguo and his wife refused.

They slowly walked to the exhibition area of ​​Changjia County. When the head of Changjia County in charge of investment promotion saw a big Buddha, they immediately became excited and welcomed the booth under the leadership of Deputy County Mayor Ma Weijun.

Wang Mengguo turned a blind eye. Seeing Ye Zhiran still standing in the exhibition area, he had to shout, "Governor Ye, I'm here."

As soon as the sound of "Governor Ye" came out, a large area of ​​shock was shocked.

The surname Cao! Why did he get to know Taiwanese businessmen again? Moreover, it seems that this Taiwanese businessman who does not take the county leaders seriously respect Ye Zhiran.

Everyone's eyes at Ye Zhiran were different again.

Ye Zhiran said calmly: "Dr. Wang, Mr. Qiu, do you want to rest here for a while?"

Listening to Ye Zhiran's words of unscathing, a group of cadres in Changjia County suddenly felt a profound feeling about Ye Zhiran.

Wang Mengguo shook his head and said, "Let's leave early."

Ye Zhiran asked Deputy County Ma for leave and said, "County Ma, Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang asked me to accompany them to Changjiayuan. I asked you to leave. I will report to you if there is any situation."

Ma Weijun was a little confused. For two consecutive days, the impact force brought to him by Ye Zhiran made him feel like he was falling from clouds. When he heard Ye Zhiran’s request for leave, he could not think of any reason to refuse, so he nodded and said, “Okay, thank you for your hard work in the village chief Ye.” After saying this, he realized that he was too polite and lost his majesty. He wanted to say something else. Seeing that Wang Mengguo was present again, if he said it too seriously, he would have other ideas. For a moment, he was in chaos.

After Ye Zhiran gave a few words to the cadres in the economic community, he and Wang Mengguo and his wife left the stadium. Secretary Feng received instructions from Mayor Ye that he had prepared a "Crown" car waiting outside.

The three of them got into the car and drove all the way.

Starting from the second half of 1990, the Jianan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government realized the importance of traffic and proposed to solve the traffic bottleneck problem for three years. Since the second half of 1990, the highway between Jianan and Changjia began to be expanded according to the national second-class highway standards. The new road was designed as a two-way six-lane with an isolation green belt added in the middle. However, at this time the road was under construction, which instead caused the original road to become more congested.

Looking at the dusty scene outside the window, Ye Zhiran explained the progress and goals of the road construction to the two old people. Wang Mengguo expressed his understanding. He asked Ye Zhiran: "What is the current road situation between Chang Jia and the provincial capital?"

Ye Zhiran replied: "The traffic between the provincial capital is mainly based on the National Highway 320 line. This national highway line has been expanded last year, and now it is also a six-lane in both directions. After the expansion of the national highway is completed, the time for Changjia to get to the provincial capital has been greatly shortened. Now you can get to the provincial capital for one and a half hours."

"What schools do Changjia have now?" Wang Mengguo asked again.

Ye Zhiran knew what he cared about and replied: "In addition to the regular primary and secondary schools, Changjia now has a secondary health school that mainly trains nurses. There is also an industrial mechanical and electrical school that trains practical technical workers."

Wang Mengguo asked: "Is this mechanical and electrical school large in scale?"

Ye Zhiran said: "The number of students in this mechanical and electrical school is about 1,200, each year, and it recruits fresh junior high school graduates, and has trained a large number of practical talents for the industrial and mining enterprises in Jianan City."

Wang Mengguo asked again: "Is Chang Jia's medical facilities advanced?" He asked casually like a casual question, but in fact he was asking the basic questions he was most concerned about.

Ye Zhiran felt a little relieved when he heard his question so carefully. If Wang Mengguo had not been determined to invest in Changjia, he would not have asked these questions. He remembered one thing in mind, that is, seeking truth from facts, neither exaggerating nor concealing it.

Ye Zhiran said: "There is only one major hospital in Changjia, namely the Changjia County Central Hospital. This hospital was established during the Republic of China. After years of development, it has become very large. The inpatient department has more than 600 beds. It is the first in the suburbs of Jianan. Of course, the quality of doctors is still different from that of big cities. In terms of medical facilities, due to the attention of the county party committee and county government, it has been equipped with CT, cardiac, electroencephalography machines, color ultrasound instruments, ventilators, etc. in recent years, and the basic equipment is relatively complete."

Wang Mengguo smiled and said, "Governor Ye is good. He is very familiar with Chang Jia's situation and answers questions and answers. He is a cadre who is honest in his work."

Ye Zhiran said: "One of the main tasks of government officials is to serve the people and economic development. I feel that my ability is far from enough, so I care more about the people and things around me."

When he arrived in Changjia, Ye Zhiran asked the driver to park next to a public telephone booth and called the township government first. He asked the township government to send a car to the foot of Xishan Mountain in two hours. Then, he drove to the foot of Xishan Mountain and got off the bus and asked the driver to go back to Jianan by himself.

Since the West Mountain has not yet been developed, except for the mountain roads up the mountain, the woods and streams have not changed at all. After more than 40 years, Wang Mengguo and Qiu Suzhen set foot on this land again. The moment they walked onto the West Mountain, the scenery in front of them awakened the past deep in their memory, as if the time and space exchanged, and they had the illusion of returning to the past.

When he walked into Donglin Temple, Qiu Suzhen's steps became slower. Wang Mengguo understood his wife's mood and reached out to hold her hand.

Taking them outside the west wing, Ye Zhiran stopped and shouted, "Master Kude, an old friend is here to visit."

"Amitabha," Before Ku De left the room, he chanted a Buddha's name first, and then the curtain was raised and his figure appeared outside the door. When he looked up at the two people coming opposite, he was stunned.

When Qiu Suzhen heard Ye Zhiran call "Master Kude", she had already stood still and looked at the people coming out of the door. Although the monk Kude was completely white after more than forty years, the most difficult thing to break in the world was the blood relationship. Qiu Suzhen still recognized that Kude was her second brother Qiu Suren who had been thinking about her for the past two days. She was both surprised, emotional and sad, and could not speak.

Monk Kude has been practicing for decades, and was slightly moved in the face of the sudden family affection. He chanted the Buddha again and said, "Suzhen, why are you here? We haven't seen each other for more than 40 years."

This greeting was like an introduction, opening up Qiu Suzhen's sad feelings. She called out, "Brother." She choked and couldn't speak.

Compared to Qiu Suzhen, Wang Mengguo seemed much calmer. He said: "Su Ren, we have lost news for so many years, but I didn't expect to meet again this time. This is a happy event. Let's sit in and talk."

The four of them walked into the wing room. At the door of the wing room, Monk Kude helped Qiu Suzhen, causing Qiu Suzhen to shed another string of tears.

The little novice monk came over to serve the tea, and Qiu Suzhen was still immersed in the sadness, feeling that thousands of words were not known where to start.

Monk Kude asked: "Suzhen, how did you know that I was in the West Mountain?"

Wang Mengguo told me about meeting Ye Zhiran in Jianan and accidentally talked about his Dharma name when he learned that Brother Su Ren was still alive.

Monk Kude thanked Ye Zhiran: "Donor Ye, your unintentional sentence has led to our brother and sister meeting today. This is an opportunity. It means that our fate has not ended."

Ye Zhiran smiled and said, "I dare not take credit. The master often talks about causality and effect. The decision of Mr. Wang and Mr. Qiu to return home for inspection this time is the cause of the gathering."

Ku De then said to Wang Mengguo: "Mengguo, do you want to invest and start a business in your hometown this time?"

Wang Mengguodao: "I have this idea, but I haven't decided where to invest."

Ku De said: "You have all grown up drinking the streams of the West Mountain since childhood. The leaves fall back to their roots. It is great to do something practical for your hometown, so there is no need to leave the near and far."

Wang Mengguo nodded and said, "The second brother said yes."

Ku De looked back at Qiu Suzhen and asked, "Suzhen, are all the family members good?"

Qiu Suzhen's tears had not stopped yet, but she became sad again when she heard this and said, "After arriving in Taiwan, my parents have been caring about you, and they died in the seventies. My elder brother also left the year before yesterday."

Monk Kude showed his sad face slightly and sighed, "This is my sin." After saying that, he stood up and worshipped the West devoutly. After a long time, he turned around and said to Qiu Suzhen, "Suzhen, wait for you to write down the days of your parents and elder brother's old life, I will set a ranking for them in Donglin Temple, chanting scriptures sooner or later, so that they can be reborn and return to the old mountain of Changjia."

Qiu Suzhen nodded and agreed, and asked again: "Brother, why did you disappear halfway back then? Did you encounter any accident?"

Monk Kude shook his head slightly and said, "The past has passed, I have forgotten it, so there is no need to mention it again. How long are you going to stay in Changjia when you come back this time?"

Wang Mengguo said, "Second brother, we were planning to stay in Changjia for two days before leaving. Now that we meet you, we will naturally change the period of travel. We will stay for two weeks and complete the inspection of Changjia. If everything is satisfactory, we will run a factory in Changjia. From now on, Suzhen and I will buy a house in Changjia and come back to spend our old age with my second brother."

Monk Kude Heshi said, "Good, good. You have this wish to comfort me. Our ancestors were all born here and old here. It is also a filial piety to your ancestors."

Qiu Suzhen asked, "Brother, after we parted, have you become a monk? Have you left behind any descendants?"

Monk Kude shook his head and said, "I have entered the Hunting Sect long ago and have not become a family. But do you have descendants?"

Qiu Suzhen replied: "We have two sons and one daughter, five grandchildren; the eldest brother also left behind two sons and five grandchildren."

Monk Kude said: "A family that accumulates good deeds will have good fortune. The family of descendants is full of the fruits of the ancestors' accumulation of good deeds. This time you go back to your hometown to invest and start a business, which is also a way to accumulate good deeds. If you have any difficulties, find donor Ye. Donor Ye is a person who is honest in doing things, and Chang Jia people can trust them."
