Chapter 408: Wandering feelings

According to the schedule of the second day, the five elderly people, accompanied by the entourage of Yonggang City, returned to their former residences. Tan Zhenhua naturally followed Shao Yifu to Zhenhai.
The old house of Shao’s family faces Aozhu Mountain, a famous landscape in Zhenhai. Although so many years have passed, its ancestral house is still intact. There are even several households of Shao’s nephews. We met and talked about many years ago. Old things, can’t help but hold hands and look at tears...
Together with Shao Yifu, they worshipped the ancestors enshrined in the Shao family's ancestral hall, ate a meal of Yonggang-style chicken soup and rice cakes made by relatives in the old house, and boarded the Aozhu Mountain in front of the door to see the sea and sky. The day passed in a hurry. When I returned to the city government guest house, it was already more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
They were the last to arrive this way. When Tan Zhenhua came forward to meet a few elderly people, he found that all of them had red eyes. It seems that even these few heroes who are savvy in business have already cultivated. The constant strength of Taishan collapsed before, and after dozens of years of leaving his hometown, the intense emotional fluctuations that once wandered home were not so easy to control.
Of course, there are still a few authentic idlers who are purely visiting mountains and rivers today, such as Zhan Nuozhu, such as Huo Zhenting and Yu Pengxia, such as Lu Guangjie, Wang Qingping and Ma Fengshan.
These people were full of joy, talking and laughing. Yonggang was originally a beautiful coastal city, with quite a few places of historical interest. These people took the opportunity to visit, and this day was not in vain.
Tan Zhenhua looked at Ma Fengshan's face and nodded darkly. The complexion of Master Ma today was obviously much better than when he first met in the magic city last time, which relieved him a lot.
It’s time for dinner. Today, the Yonggang Overseas Chinese Affairs Office came forward to entertain everyone. The place to eat was also changed, and it was replaced by another long-established
Tank Duck Dog
in Yonggang. The main specialty here is the local specialties of Yonggang. Of course, the most famous is the world-famous "Yonggang Pastry dumplings". Among them, the sesame-stuffed lard dumpling is the most famous. It is an authentic aboriginal snack. The price is not expensive but the most authentic for returning home travelers. The taste of Yonggang.
It seems that Yonggang City has indeed spent a lot of thought to welcome these elderly people.
After eating, the Secretary-General Yuan of the Municipal Party Committee took a piece of paper and came to see Shao Yifu: "Old Shao, look, this is tomorrow’s itinerary. This is how we planned. Tomorrow morning, we will take a few elderly people to Tiantong Temple. Enter the incense, and then go back to Dongqian Lake for a tour, and visit the "Yue'ewang Temple" by the way, and go to the "Tianyi Pavilion" after lunch and dinner..."
It is said that Secretary-General Yuan’s arrangement is still very considerate. These elderly people in Xiangjiang are deeply influenced by Chinese traditional culture, and some believe in the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism. The "Tiantong Temple" in Yonggang is a famous Chinese temple. It is located in the foothills of Taibai Mountain about 25 kilometers northeast of Yongkang City. It was built in the first year of Yongkang in the Western Jin Dynasty, which is 300 AD. It is one of the five famous Buddhist Zen Buddhist temples. It is known as the "Southeast Buddha Kingdom". It is very willing to come to the elderly. Go for a stick of incense.
Shao Yifu interrupted Secretary-General Yuan's words and said, "Secretary-General Yuan, you have worked hard this time. However, our plan has changed a bit. We plan to leave tomorrow night. We have another purpose. Therefore, this "Tiantong Temple" we will not I have gone, but this "Yue'ewang Temple" and "Tianyi Pavilion" can still go for a walk."
Secretary-General Yuan asked in amazement: "Old Shao, why is it so sudden? The original schedule is not like this. Is there something wrong with our hospitality? You can bring it up and we will pay attention to improvement later."
Shao Yifu shook his head and smiled: "Secretary-General Yuan, it’s not your reception issue. Your hospitality is very caring. It made us old guys feel the warmth of the people in our hometown, but there is an urgent business we have to deal with together, so , I can only pick key points and walk away."
"This "Yue E Wang Temple" was erected to commemorate our Chinese national hero, Marshal Yue Feiyue. It is a model of righteousness in the hearts of our wanderers, and the inheritance of martial arts, so it should be a worship; and this "Tianyi Pavilion" is a collection of books The pavilion is the legacy of my Chinese Millennium Wenhui and cultural heritage, so I should also sweep it away, and forget about the others. This time I can only come and leave in a hurry."
Secretary-General Yuan also wanted to talk to him to stay. Bao Yugang smiled and said: "Secretary-General Yuan, I'm really sorry this time. Something happened suddenly. We all have urgent business to deal with, so we can only Now, I really appreciate your hospitality."
Seeing that the two elderly people said this, Secretary-General Yuan had no choice but to say: "Then I will first inform the next leaders and say that you have changed the schedule."
Bao Yugang grabbed him and said, "Wait a minute, Secretary-General Yuan, I still have something to ask you."
Secretary-General Yuan quickly said: "Old Bao, you ask."
Bao Yugang asked: "I went back to the old house in Yin County today and chatted with a few folks. They said that we don't have an official university in Yonggang City. Is that true?"
Secretary-General Yuan replied: "Yes, Mr. Bao, there are currently only a few professional schools in Yonggang City that can train students with a college degree. As for undergraduates, there is no such thing for the time being."
Bao Yugang said sadly: "How can this be done? Yonggang has been a land of scholarship since ancient times. How can we break the inheritance if we don't know how many famous people are? Besides, without good talents, how can we build our hometown in the future?"
Secretary-General Yuan said: "This, in fact, our city leaders also know that we even made plans to merge the three colleges and universities in Yonggang to form a real university, but, but..."
"But there is no money, right?" Bao Yugang asked unceremoniously.
Secretary-General Yuan nodded abruptly, yes, the cost of establishing a new university is not a half-and-a-half. Without the funding support of the Ministry of Education, it is absolutely impossible to rely solely on the local financial resources of Ningbo and Hong Kong. Therefore, This plan has been done for several years, and it can only stay on paper.
Bao Yugang nodded, thought for a moment, took out the checkbook in his arms, scribbled a few lines, and handed it to Secretary-General Yuan: "This is my little heart, to make a contribution to my hometown, if What's the problem with starting this university? Just come to me and dare not say anything else. I still have a little money."
Secretary-General Yuan accepted the check while grateful, looked down, and suddenly exclaimed: "20 million U.S. dollars! Such a large amount, Mr. Bao, you..."
Bao Yugang said solemnly: "Secretary-General Yuan, Yonggang is my hometown and my roots. Although I can't come back often, but when the prosperity of my hometown requires us wanderers, then I am bound to define it. Let's talk about it. The so-called "Ten years of trees and 100 years of people", only when more outstanding talents emerge, can we build our Yonggang City better and better. Compared with these, my little money is really nothing."
Secretary-General Yuan was so excited that he didn't know what to say. This is 20 million U.S. dollars. Even at the current official exchange rate, there are nearly 40 million RMB, which is more than enough to build a new university!
He just wanted to say some more words of gratitude, but he saw Cao Guangbiao come up and said: "How much did you donate Lao Bao? 20 million US dollars? Tsk tusk tusk, it's really worthy of being listed on the top ten richest people in Xiangjiang, so generous!"
Bao Yugang said irritably, "Why, is your old Cao planning to be a barren iron cock?"
Cao Guangbiao rolled his eyes and said, "Who said that? You chartered a boat and donated a university, but ah, after all, only a small number of people are eligible to go to the university. When I returned to my ancestral home this time, I heard from the old neighbors in the neighborhood. Yes, there are some poor children who can’t even go to elementary school. This is not enough. So, I decided to donate 5 elementary schools this time. Secretary-General Yuan, how much does it cost to build one elementary school? Is 1 million dollars enough? "
Secretary-General Yuan quickly replied: "Enough is enough, sure enough."
"Then it's settled." Cao Guangbiao also took out the checkbook, scribbled a check for five million dollars and handed it to Secretary-General Yuan.
When he finished writing, he looked at Li Shuxiong, who was watching them. "Uncle Li, what do you say?"
