C122 If You Need Anything Go and Find Him

A moment later, Fan Youmin shifted his gaze from Lone Rock to his son's face, still cold. He had completely inherited his father's character. He had always been very strict with his children. He had never spoiled them, nor had he given them good looks. It was as the saying went, "Good intentions do not have good faces. "

"The Fan family is a famous rich family in Daan. Starting from the old ancestors, they have some reputation on both sides of the Yellow River. " He stared at his son and said in a very slow and heavy tone, "This is the result of the efforts of many generations of the Fan family. You must not ruin it in my hands. "

In his very distant and detailed memories, in the last 40s, his father Fan Zhengkun's name shook both sides of the Yellow River. He was called "Big Brother" by many heroes of the Jianghu. Even "Big Boss" was worshipped by many people. In his heyday, it could be said that even if Fan Zhengkun stomped his foot, the Yellow River would shake three times.

At that time, the Fan Family's business was very popular. There were two roads on both land and water, cars and boats, and it was a majestic sight. As long as they announced the names of the Fan family and their father, Fan Zhengkun, there was no one who wouldn't let them pass. Not to mention the Green Forest bandits along the way, even the government had to give way to them.

This unusual glory of the pugilistic world not only contained Fan Zhengkun's personal ability and prestige, it was also the result of the hard work of several generations of the Fan family. It had been more than two hundred years since the first generation of the Fan Family's ancestors settled on the Yellow River.

The sheep herder, Fan Shide, built a few simple houses on the desolate riverbank, and had a place to settle down. However, his youngest son, Fan Jinggeng, entered the government office of Daan County after taking the midterm exam and became the trusted advisor of the county magistrate. Due to this, the Fan family, as an outsider, finally gained a firm foothold on the Yellow River.

In order to become rich and outstanding as soon as possible, under the protection of his son Fan Jinggeng, Fan Shide planted a large number of plants on the riverside called rice. At that time, he brought the seed of this plant from Guan Zhong to the Liang Province Camel Tang Gang in Daan. He told people that this was called rice, and it was a very expensive medicinal herb. In ancient times, it was a special tribute for the royal family.

After that, he had used the fruits of these plants called Imperial Rice to exchange for a large amount of silver from the Tang Clan. Only then did Fan Shide know that this plant was called Da Yan. He also knew that planting this kind of medicinal herb called Imperial Rice was ten times or even ten times more worthwhile than planting crops such as wheat, rice, and rice.

The climate in the Yellow River's Daan section was moist and the land was fertile. It was especially suitable for planting Royal Rice. In the first year, it was sown in September. It grew in the winter, and in the second year, it bloomed in the summer. In the autumn, all of it was sold to the Liang Province Camel Visitor Tang Gang. The profits were astonishing.

Every summer, standing on top of the Black Orchid Mountain, looking down at both sides of the Yellow River, it was like a world of fresh flowers. In the distance, flowers of various colors bloomed in dense clusters. Red, purple, pale yellow flowers, flowing with brilliant colors, fragrance assaulting one's senses. Groups of butterflies and bees shuttled back and forth between the flowers, adding endless vitality to this world of fresh flowers.

Later on, Fan Jinggeng told his father that this type of rice had experienced a very complicated process since the Ming Dynasty had entered China. At first, it was imported as a kind of magical painkillers. Later on, a method of mixing rice and tobacco was passed into China. From the south to the north, it quickly became popular.

After this kind of mixed product was consumed, it was far more satisfying than drinking tobacco alone. It could excite one's mind and stimulate one's emotions. Once one became addicted, they would definitely inhale it. However, after a long period of consumption, one would slowly become dry, black, and thin, with a dispirited mind.

Later on, the method of smoking big cigarettes was improved by the people of the south, and it quickly spread throughout the country. This kind of big cigarette smoke had a greater effect than the mixtures. It made people feel more comfortable after smoking it, and it was also easier to get addicted, but the consequences were also more severe.

When Van Shide and his sons planted this kind of plant called Imperial Rice in the fertile Yellow River, there were already people in Daan County who began to smoke smoke smoke bubbles, commonly known as "smoking big cigarettes. " However, the number of people was very small, only limited to some very rich people.

Of course, this kind of thing called Great Smoke Ointment, as well as the way to smoke cigarettes, was initially the Liang Province Camel Tang Gang, who conducted long-distance business all year round. It was also like how they taught the Daan people how to grow and harvest Imperial Rice, and taught them how to smoke cigarettes. From this, they earned quite a bit of silver.

Two years later, when a large courtyard with green bricks and blue tiles stood firmly by the Yellow River, Da An finally understood that planting this kind of rice that was the tribute of the royal family was much more profitable than planting other crops. This, Fan Shide was the best example of getting rich.

Therefore, while they were envious of Fan Shide making a fortune and sighing that it was a little late for them to know, they impatiently imitated the father and son of the Fan family and planted this kind of expensive medicinal rice in their own riverside land.

From this moment on, the Fan family leaped and became a well-off and wealthy family on both sides of the Yellow River. At the same time, they also gradually embarked on a more prosperous road of talent and prosperity. Everything went smoothly and went out of control.

When it had reached Fan Zhengkun's grandfather's hands, the Fan family had even become a model family that everyone on both sides of the Yellow River respected. Because a great hero that everyone knew had appeared, this was the national army commander, Fan Tinggui, who had bravely sacrificed himself at the front line of Zhongzhou Mountain. He was also Fan Zhengkun's father.

Fan Zhengkun had inherited his father's heroic and unyielding disposition, but he was smoother than his father and knew how to survive and develop in troubled times. He was very sensible and joined the older brother association in time. Moreover, he soon became the leader of the older brother association on both sides of the Yellow River, and his power shook the entire area.

At that time, Li Jizhen's father, a local man in Daan who was very poor after his wife died, led his son, who was only about ten years old, into the Fan family's main door at a time of winter's snowstorm. From then on, he lived by herding sheep to the Fan family.

Although it had reached the point where people were rich, the descendants of the Fan family had always followed the will of the old man, Fan Shide, and raised a herd of sheep for generations. Because Fan Shide relied on herding sheep for others to make a name for himself. Before his death, he specifically instructed his descendants that this fundamental tradition must not be lost.

At this moment, seeing that his father was staring at him, his gaze was sharp, and his words contained words, Fan Wenbin only felt his heart suddenly sink. A little, his tone was very solemn as he said, "Dad, the reputation of the Fan family will definitely not be tarnished by my hands. "

When he said this, the plan to deal with this provocation that he had planned in his heart had already gradually matured. He immediately decided that the moment he returned to the company, he would take the initiative to counterattack fiercely and fiercely. He would not hesitate or hesitate.

"If you encounter any difficulties, go and find someone. " Fan Youmin saw a kind of unyielding determination in his son's eyes. He felt slightly gratified in his heart. At the same time, he exhorted, "His name is Lin Hong. He will do his best to help you. "

That day, before this single stone, Fan Youmin unexpectedly met his old friend, Lin Hong, who had been feeding horses with him in the past. Fan Youmin was very happy, and he warmly led his family home and told his wife, Wang Fang, to treat them well.

In the courtyard, Lin Hong walked a few steps forward and held Wang Fang's hand tightly with a smile on her face. Her sister-in-law kept calling out to her, causing Wang Fang to be surprised at first, but she quickly recognized the person called Little Lin.

On the afternoon forty years ago, during dinner, her husband led a young child into the house. He said that he was a young intellectual from the countryside from Xijing City, and his name was Lin Hong. The secretary of the regiment, Li Jizhen, asked him to feed the horse with him. Since he had no place to eat at night, he first came to our house to have a few meals.

Wang Fang was stunned. She thought to herself, 'The army's radio always says that a group of intellectual youths will come. They really came today. ' After a moment, she said happily, "Such a fair and clean student doll, it's the time for studying. Why did he come to Fan Jiadu to feed the horses? What a pity.

Lin Hong smiled slightly and said proudly, "Sister-in-law, we intellectual young people have to actively respond to the call. Firstly, we are not afraid of suffering, and secondly, we are not afraid of death. The reason we came to the Fan family to do so is to fight the heavens and earth, and change the appearance of the backward countryside. "

Seeing Lin Hong's childish and naive appearance, Fan Youmin sneered in his heart. He thought, In the end, he is still a student child and does not have any social experience. After a while, your child will know that the appearance of the countryside is not that easy to change.

Thinking is thinking. However, you must not say it out loud. Fan Youmin was very clear about the current situation, so he could only smile and say good things. "Little Lin, it's rare for you to have such knowledge and ambition. "

Seeing that the smile on Lin Hong's face had become even more brilliant, he said again, "The Fan family is currently lacking young and promising youths like Little Lin. Let's feed the production team's cows and horses properly, and completely change the village's backward appearance. "

Lin Hong had a very good meal when she first came to the Fan family. Although it was black noodles, he ate two big bowls in one go. It was only when he saw the landlord's children standing at the kitchen door, drooling and staring at him that he suddenly understood.

He quickly glanced at the landlords and quickly put down his rice bowl and said, "I'm full. I'm full. " Then, he flew away from Fan Youmin's home and returned to his job, the nursing home.

So, from that afternoon onwards, starting from the first step of stepping into the Fan household, with the ambition to transform the backward appearance of the countryside, Lin Hong began to feed the cattle and horses of the production team with Fan Youmin.

It was not until many years later, because of her family background, that Lin Hong was recommended to university and became a "engineering, agricultural, and military university student" before she rode on the dark horse named "April 8th" and left the Fan family, who had lived for eight years.

Now, after forty years, Lin Hong stepped into Fan Jiadu again. When she saw the old landlord who made the first meal for him, she felt a lot of emotions. She held Wang Fang's hand tightly and said with some sobs, "Sister in law, I will never forget the meal you made. "

"If you want to eat, ask your sister-in-law to make another meal for you. " This time, Fan Youmin was different from the time forty years ago. He said his true thoughts, "But this time, you must be full. You must not let go of the rice bowl and run away before you are full. "

Lin Hong naturally understood the meaning of this sentence. She laughed loudly and said, "No, definitely not this time. " Turning around, she pointed at her family members behind her and said loudly: "This time, we want to eat the bottom of a pot and let the geniuses go. "

For a moment, in the face of the cold wind, the large farm yard by the Yellow River was filled with happy and harmonious laughter. Although Lin Hong's family did not understand the meaning behind it, when they saw the old man laughing heartily, they appeared to be very sincere and honest, and they also laughed loudly.

The suffering of the past had now turned into beautiful memories and joyful laughter, drifting in the gloomy sky. In this sincere and honest laughter, Fan Youmin and Lin Hong's friendship had deepened once again.

After dinner, the two of them talked about the past in high spirits. Sometimes, they laughed and sometimes sighed. The room was always full of unrestrained freedom and joy. It was late at night. Under Wang Fang's repeated urging, they went to bed and slept.

Lin Hong's family stayed at the Fan family's residence for two whole days. During this time, accompanied by Fan Youmin, they also visited a few families who cared about him back then. All of them were warmly received.

On the day of their departure, many people who knew Lin Hong back then were already seventy or eighty years old. They all sent Lin Hong's family to the village entrance at the same time. It was only when they saw them leave in a car that they said the truth from the bottom of their hearts, "Little Lin, you are very kind. "

Of course, they did not hear what Lin Hong said to her family. If they heard it, they would be even more moved. On the way back to Xijing City, Lin Hong said with deep emotion, "Forty years have passed, and everything has changed. But the favor of the Fan family is the same as back then. It has not changed. "
