Chapter 1528 Difficult to distinguish true from false
Gong Wei talked about his experience of working abroad with great interest.
His first job was serving dishes in a restaurant.
The owner of the restaurant is a couple of elderly Chinese. Three generations ago, my ancestors traveled across the oceans to make a living overseas. Because they had no culture and no money, their ancestors had been living in dire straits.
The Chinese have a tenacity that no human being in the world has. They are hardworking, kind, and tolerant. After three generations of unremitting efforts, finally opened a restaurant.
When it was passed on to the old couple, it was already the third generation.
The old couple did not have children and did not engage in other industries. They devoted all their youth to this restaurant of less than 30 square meters.
Gong Wei was young at the time, and went to many shops to find a job, but was rejected because of his illegal age.
When he arrived at the old couple's shop, he was already desperate for a part-time job.
Logically speaking, the old couple could still be considered Chinese three generations ago. Up to their generation, it has been three generations, and the domestic culture and customs have basically been completely forgotten.
However, the blood flowing in the bones made the old couple feel cordial when they saw Gong Wei at first glance.
That is, Gong Wei, who just went abroad, is still studying in a language school, and communication is not good at all. The old couple could speak poor Chinese, which immediately made Gong Wei burst into tears.
It turned out that a family motto handed down from their ancestors, no matter how far they travel, future generations must not lose their mother tongue.
So, it was passed down from generation to generation, so that although the mother tongue of the old couple was not fluent, they could still communicate.
?I learned that Gong Wei had just left China and wanted to find a part-time job. Without saying a word, the old couple left Gong Wei in the store to help.
When Gong Wei said this, his eyes became a little sad, and his eye sockets seemed a little moist.
Xu Yishan listened to his story carefully, but wondered in his heart, is he making up a story?
Based on Xu Yishan's understanding of Gong Wei, when Gong Wei went abroad to study, Governor Gong and his wife were already officials of the provincial party committee. Those who were able to study abroad at that time were not easy people.
Either they are the children of cadres, or they are rich people. Children from rural areas like Xu Yishan don't even want to dream.
It is certain that Gong Wei's family background was very good at that time. He studied abroad, and his family's finances were completely affordable. There was no need for Gong Wei to find a job to support himself.
His idea was quickly shattered by Governor Gong.
Governor Gong sighed and said: "Xiaowei, I know we owed you when we were parents. But you should understand that your mother and I have behaved well and sat upright in our lives, and we have never been greedy. No. What's more, at that time, your mother and I still had to support your grandparents, grandparents, and there was really no extra money for you."
Gong Wei said with a faint smile: "Dad, I never blamed you and my mother. If you can send me abroad to study, I don't know how to be grateful in this life. How dare I have other ideas."
Governor Gong nodded and said, "I'm very pleased that you can think so."
Gong Wei continued to tell his story.
During his study abroad, he stayed and worked in the restaurant of the old couple. The old couple said that Gong Wei was their distant relative in China. Gong Wei is also very obedient and always calls the old couple grandpa and grandma when he meets everyone.
After school, Gong Wei spends almost all his time helping out in restaurants. Three years passed like this.
It wasn't until Gong Wei was successfully admitted to the university that his study tasks became more intense and his daily communication increased, so he gradually stopped going to restaurants.
One day, someone suddenly found Gong Wei at school and told him that the old couple in the restaurant had suddenly fallen ill and needed to see him urgently.
Gong Wei threw down the book and followed others to the hospital to visit the old couple.
It turns out that the old couple is getting older, and sometimes their memory can't keep up. They forgot to turn off the gas valve after finishing their day's business. When people found out, they had already fallen into a severe coma.
The hospital took a lot of effort and finally revived the person.
As soon as the old couple opened their eyes, they sent someone to find Gong Weilai.
At that time, Gong Wei had truly regarded the old couple as relatives. And the old couple who had no children in their life also regarded him as their own.
The old couple signed a will, and they left all their savings and property to Gong Wei.
Soon after the gas poisoning incident, the old couple passed away.
As the only relative, Gong Wei handled the funeral affairs for the two elderly people. At that time, Gong Wei was a boy who had just turned ten years old.
At this point in the story, Gong Wei was already in tears.
Xu Yishan felt sad when he looked at Gong Wei who was crying.
"They are the most important people in my life." Gong Wei smiled and said, "Of course, except my parents."
Xu Yishan wanted to ask how much property the old couple had left to him, but he still didn't say it.
Gong Wei did not say how much property he got from the old couple. But one thing is for sure, since then, he has learned to invest in the country.
Gong Wei said: "Secretary Xu, as long as you have money at that time, you can buy a random stock in the domestic stock market, and you can make a lot of money in less than three months."
Xu Yishan didn't feel ashamed. Although Gong Wei looked not much older than himself, his experience might be something he would never have the chance to experience again in his life.
Gong Wei's story touched him a lot, and he was fascinated by this legendary life experience.
Suddenly, Gong Wei changed the topic: "Actually, I still have a lot of affection for the Ministry. As long as the company's background is from the Ministry, I have never hesitated to invest in this area."
Xu Yishan praised: "Mr. Gong, you have a patriotic heart."
Gong Wei smiled and said: "Although we are abroad, our hearts are tied to the development of the country. You see, the Jingshi Century shares I invested in the ministry and province will lose money?"
Crystal Century? Xu Yishan's heart skipped a beat. Isn't this the company under Shen Wang's name?
"Before the official listing of Crystal Century, I took the time to find out. I think the future development of this company is very promising. In order to help it go public, I came back three times, and finally contributed to the listing."
Xu Yishan tentatively asked: "How much did Mr. Gong invest in Crystal Century?"
Gong Wei smiled wryly and said: "It's hard to say what money you invested. However, all the money you earned was lost at one time. I'm not afraid to offend Secretary Xu. The domestic stock market is still underdeveloped, and many places can see that it is political. economy. Not a pure market economy."
Xu Yishan hurriedly went to see Governor Gong. Gong Wei's words were extremely critical.
Governor Gong seemed deaf and indifferent.
"By the way, when I come back this time, dealing with Jingshi shares is one of my things." Gong Wei smiled and said: "I heard that Shen Wang of Jingshi has friendship with Secretary Xu?"
Xu Yishan chuckled and said: "It's okay, we know each other, we had dinner together."
"Old Shen is not bad." Gong Wei commented on Shen Wang: "In order to help him go public, I almost fell into it and couldn't get out."
Gong Wei laughed loudly, glanced at his drowsy father and said, "My father is tired."
Xu Yishan quickly got up and said goodbye.
Gong Wei got up and wanted to see him off, walked to the door and said: "Secretary Xu, I often hear my dad mention you. You have a bright future, brother!"
Xu Yishan said with a chuckle: "The main thing is to thank the chief for training me."
Gong Wei said with a pun: "It's all mutual. I still understand my dad. As long as he is a good seedling, he will do his best to help."
Xu Yishan wanted to ask him several times if he knew Liu Kun, but he never took a good chance.
?From the time they met to the present, they chatted for almost three hours, and the topic never touched Liu Kun.
Until he said goodbye and went out, Xu Yishan didn't ask the name "Liu Kun".
That night, he didn't stay in the provincial capital overnight, and rushed back to Hengyue City overnight.
