“I never dared to dream of this before! Now, the city and the province are praising Baishan County as a model for poverty alleviation through animal husbandry! I, Lao Xiong… on behalf of the hundreds of thousands of people in Baishan County, thank you!”
As he spoke, County Chief Xiong actually bowed to Lin Huowang.
Lin Huowang quickly helped him up and said with a smile, "County Chief Xiong, you flatter me. I only came up with an idea. It's all thanks to your courage and the hard work of the people of the county that we have what we have today."
"Wow, your awareness is really high! Unlike some people, who can't wait to praise themselves after achieving even a little bit of success."
County Chief Xiong sat down, feeling even more at ease.
He lowered his voice, then said mysteriously, "By the way, Awang, you came back this time... directly from Chuncheng? Didn't you go to the south to take a look?"
Lin Huowang was taken aback, but then he understood. Although County Chief Xiong was not a high-ranking official, he had a keen sense of politics.
Furthermore, because of their close relationship, Lin Huowang's family needed his help, so some information from above was also revealed to him.
He knew that I had previously transferred so many supplies and manpower from the three northeastern provinces to the south through the central government, and he must have guessed that I was planning something big there.
"County Magistrate Xiong is extremely perceptive."
Lin Huowang didn't elaborate, "Things in the south went very smoothly, but this time, I came all the way from Chuncheng to take the exam and then go home to see my mother and sister."
"Of course! Of course!" County Magistrate Xiong nodded repeatedly. "You're such a filial son. Go back now, I'll have a jeep from the county take you back to Linjiagou! But if you're doing anything in the south, try to bring some of that back to our hometown too! Just build a few factories, and the resulting output value will be substantial, significantly improving our people's living standards!"
"Don't worry, County Chief Xiong. These are all within my consideration. In fact, the industrial foundation of our three northeastern provinces is definitely the best in the country. After all, we are the eldest son of the Republic. As long as we change our mindset and obey the unified command and arrangements of the central government, we can have a second spring."
Lin Huowang nodded, but what he said was not just to appease County Magistrate Xiong; it was a genuine plan he had been developing since he first arrived in Hong Kong.
In his previous life, he felt that the decline of Northeast China was a great pity. Even though a few automobile and heavy industry plants were supporting it, compared with the glory after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was like a phoenix turning into a chicken.
Therefore, among the three car brands signed with the UK this time, Lin Huowang decided to place the production lines for Land Rover and part of Rover cars at the First Automobile Works in Kunming.
With the future increase in the country's automobile sales, the supporting automobile industrial plants will also spread throughout the three northeastern provinces, revitalizing the existing workers and industrial resources in the Northeast. In addition, by introducing other industrial plants and opening up trade routes to the sea, Lin Huowang believes that the future of the Northeast is promising.
...
After leaving the county town, the jeep slowly drove along the snow-covered mountain road.
When the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar village entrance came into view, Lin Huowang's heart finally settled down completely.
My long-lost hometown, Linjiagou.
The county seat has changed so much, so naturally the village of Linjiagou has changed even more.
The muddy dirt road was paved with gravel, and many new tiled houses were built on both sides of the road. Although they were simple, they exuded a new hope.
At the village entrance, a very fashionable slogan was even put up: "Develop dragonfish farming and move towards a new socialist life!"
"Awang! Awang is back!"
The sharp-eyed villagers were the first to spot Lin Huowang getting out of the jeep, and they shouted, immediately causing a stir in the village.
"What? Brother Awang is back?"
"Hey! Our village's most capable person is back!"
"Quick! Go and call Uncle Shuisheng! Go to Awang's house and deliver the message!"
For a time, the entire Linjiagou village was in an uproar.
Lin Huowang hadn't taken more than a few steps when he was surrounded by villagers who had rushed over upon hearing the news.
"Brother Awang, you're finally back!"
"Awang, if you don't come back soon, your Uncle Shuisheng's wine jars will be glared through by him!"
Lin Shuisheng pushed through the crowd and rushed over, immediately punching Lin Huowang in the chest. His eyes were a little red as he said, "Good lad... you still know how to come back! You've been gone for so long without a single word!"
Lin Huowang was also touched and patted Lin Shuisheng's shoulder heavily: "Uncle Shuisheng, I'm back now."
"elder brother!!"
Just then, a clear, tearful shout rang out.
The crowd parted automatically, and Lin Xiaoxue suddenly threw herself into Lin Huowang's arms, then burst into tears, crying, "Brother! Where did you go! Don't you want me and Mother anymore? I...we missed you so much!"
"Silly girl, why are you crying?"
Lin Awang stroked his sister's head, his eyes reddening, "I'm back now, aren't I? I was held up by some things outside."
“Awang…”
Then a trembling voice rang out.
Supported by Zhao Juhua, Lin's mother slowly walked over, tears streaming down her face. She wanted to go forward, but was afraid she was dreaming.
"mother!"
Seeing his elderly mother like this, Lin Huowang could no longer hold back. He rushed over in three steps, knelt down in front of his mother with a "plop," and kowtowed deeply.
"Mother! It's my fault for being unfilial! I'm late! I've made you and my sister worry!"
