We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?
Chapter 195 Returning to the Clan
The motorcade of Luo Nianzhong and others stopped at a quaint urban-rural fringe area. It is said to be quaint because many of the houses here were built a hundred years ago.
Most of them are in the style of the houses of wealthy landlords in the Republic of China. Both the exterior walls and wooden piles look a bit shabby and in disrepair.
As for urban and rural areas, because there is a large area of cultivated land around this house, we can guess that this area should be the ruling land of the squires during the feudal period.
After getting off the bus, all the county officials who came after hearing the news were waiting here. What followed was the beating of gongs and drums and some people dancing a dance that Luo Nianzhong didn't recognize.
They are not ordinary people who don't understand the situation. They have had the opportunity to understand Luo Nianzhong since officials from the province and city came down to investigate the Luo family's ancestral home.
The more I got to know him, the more shocked I became. I really didn’t expect that such a richest man in the world would appear in their little Puning.
This person's industry is not light industry, real estate or the like, they are high-tech industries that Rabbit needs.
If we can build some factories in our hometown, Puning will be able to lead the country in this industry in an instant, and it can also attract some other investments.
Through the introduction of officials from Guangdong Province who came with him, Luo Nianzhong said hello and got to know the local officials.
"The magistrate is so kind. I just come back to find my roots and recognize my ancestors. I don't need to trouble everyone to come and greet me."
"Mr. Luo is very polite, and it is precisely because of this that we should be welcomed more warmly.
This is a unique English song and dance here, and as a Puning native, everyone knows it, so I want Mr. Luo to experience it.”
“So that’s it, thank you very much, folks.
Let's do this. I'll have people put up a flowing table here in the evening, and everyone will be welcome. This is my thanks to the folks for their hospitality."
After that, he said to the accompanying officials from Guangdong Province, "There are definitely not enough tables, chairs, and benches. In addition, leaders need to help coordinate the purchase of ingredients."
"No problem, don't worry, Mr. Luo."
This time the Luo family came back to find their roots, which was a big deal for the upper echelons. Someone was originally coming from the upper echelons, but Luo Nianzhong politely refused after finding out.
However, he specifically told the Guangdong provincial government that they must do their best to help take care of the Luo family during their trip.
Without delaying for too long, Luo Nianzhong and his family followed the magistrate to a small dilapidated courtyard.
The yard doesn't have much of a front or back yard, and there are already many families living in it.
"This was the main house of your Luo family at that time. Later, a large number of people went to the Magic City to do business and this branch was left behind."
As he spoke, the magistrate took Luo Nianzhong to a large house. In addition to an old man lying on a recliner who seemed to be asleep, there was also a young couple standing at the door looking very restrained.
"These two should be your cousins in terms of seniority. The one lying down is your third uncle. He is a little delirious now."
The magistrate sighed and felt regretful, "Speaking of it, life is hard. Your third uncle's three sons died on the battlefield. It can be said that the whole family is loyal.
It is precisely because of such stimulation that it became what it is now. At that time, your cousin was only 11 years old and took on the burden of the family. He was also a child with a hard life."
As the magistrate said, Luo Wang Yunhua couldn't stop crying. He walked up to the couple and hugged them, saying with sobs in his mouth, "Good boy, thank you so much."
The two of them had been notified and knew that the second uncle's family had come back to recognize their ancestors.
At first, they were a little overwhelmed, but now the look of Luo Wang Yunhua made the affection between the two of them burst out, and they shook their heads with tears in their eyes.
"This is what I should do. My grandfather has told me about the eldest uncle and second uncle's family since I was little. He has always talked about these two brothers who always played with him when he was a child.
He also said that his biggest wish in this life is to see them again, and now he has fulfilled his wish. Grandpa will definitely be happy if he is sober."
Luo Yingshi didn't come with him this time, saying that something had delayed him.
However, he also asked Luo Wang Yunhua to help bring sincerity. Not only did he donate one million Hong Kong dollars, but he also specifically asked her to convey that he would come back in person with the whole family after a while.
When Luo Nianzhong found out, he didn't pay much attention. He didn't know whether it was because something really happened or because he was afraid that he, a junior, would steal his limelight.
But no matter what the reason was, she said that she would bring her whole family back to pay respects in a while, so that was fine.
While Luo Wang Yunhua and Luo Nianzhong's cousins were understanding the situation and chatting about home affairs, Luo Nianzhong stood aside and listened.
The leaders were embarrassed to sit down when they saw Luo Nianzhong like this, and the situation was a bit embarrassing.
Luo Nianzhong didn't care about them. He asked them to sit down but they didn't sit down themselves.
Through the conversation, he learned that his cousin's name was Luo Jianguo. Because his third uncle's family was full of loyalties, the city specifically approved him to enter the factory and start working at the age of 15.
Over the years, my life has been pretty good thanks to the care of my neighbors. Even my current cousin-in-law was introduced by my neighbors four years ago.
It's a pity that the two have been married for four years and have no children, but the cousin has never said anything about this matter. The couple is very loving, and the male lead outside and the female lead complement each other very well.
Now this house can be said to be the old residence of the Luo family, which is where the Luo family made their fortune.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, war was raging, and the brothers of Luo Nianzhong's grandfather's generation had differences. They felt that they should move to a safer place to develop, because the third uncle's grandfather did not agree and finally decided to separate the family.
The family's fields and real estate belong to the third uncle's lineage, and the remaining money is shared equally with the rest of the family.
In this way, this group of people first went to Shanghai, and then some went to Thailand, and settled down through the funds and hard work in hand.
Later, the generation of Mr. Luo Nianzhong experienced the separation of the families and started their own business in miscellaneous and local products, which can be regarded as some savings.
However, Luo Nianzhong's grandfather and Luo Yingshi's lineage obviously did not develop well, which resulted in Luo Yingshi and Luo Yinghua having to run business with other uncles' families since childhood.
In the end, the two of them fell in love with Hong Kong Island, a hot land. They separated and later developed on Hong Kong Island and built such a huge business.
In fact, there are many Luo family members in Thailand, but after so many years of intermarriage, family separation, dilapidation and a series of reasons, they basically no longer move around much now.
In particular, the slightly more developed branches of the Luo family in Thailand are all brothers of their grandfathers. Some of them even look down on each other, let alone Luo Nianzhong and his generation.
Members of the Luo family everywhere were basically strangers, especially Luo Nianzhong, so no one came to seek him out after he became successful.
This is also the reason why Luo Yinghua wants to return to the mainland to recognize his ancestors instead of Thailand. He always feels that he is Chinese.
"Cousin, I wonder if the family tree left at that time is still there?" Seeing Luo Wang Yunhua chatting for a long time, Luo Nianzhong interrupted to see if there was a family tree.
"Now, grandpa has been keeping it as a treasure. Later, I put it away after grandpa didn't remember it."
After saying that, he quickly asked his wife to take out the family tree and show it to Luo Nianzhong and others.
The daughter-in-law turned around and went into the back room. After a short while, she came out holding a very contemporary book and handed it to Luo Nianzhong.
After Luo Nianzhong opened it, he found that all the words were in traditional Chinese characters. Only when Luo Jianguo was writing at the end did he change to simplified Chinese characters.
When it comes to the generation of the third uncle, there are still many names on it, and Luo Nianzhong's grandfather Luo Jiahong is also on it.
However, after that, only the third uncle's lineage remained and was written down, and the other branches were no longer continued.
After reading it, Luo Nianzhong handed the family tree to Luo Wang Yunhua. When the old lady read it, she shed tears and whispered Luo Yinghua's name in her mouth, feeling happy and sad at the same time.
After seeing this, Zhao Yazhi handed over Luo Anran in her arms to the accompanying nanny, and Guan Jiahui comforted her one by one.
Luo Nianzhong also walked up to her and persuaded her, "Mommy, you should be happy. I think Dad will be happy if he knows about it."
Luo Wang Yunhua forced a smile, wiped his tears and said, "Yes, today is a good day. You should be happy and not cry."
After speaking, he waved to the nanny who was holding Luo Anran, and hugged Luo Anran, who just saw her crying and waved to her.
Seeing her, Luo Wang Yunhua completely put away the sad emotions on his face, and said teasingly, "Our family An Ran knows that we feel sorry for grandma, right? Grandma's love for you is not in vain."
