Infernal Hero Chapter 15: Stay
Wolongtang Village, an inconspicuous coastal village in Wudong area.
Many years ago, Gu Yufei went to sea with his sworn brothers Fang Baiyu, Xue Shuanglin and Gong Hanzhang, and learned from others that they engaged in smuggling by sea. The first pot of gold was found on the head and waistband. After that, the first flour mill was established in this small village. From the flour mill at the beginning to the steel rolling mill, there were 48 village-run enterprises. Gradually formed the pattern of Wolongtang industrial cluster.
The entire Wolongtang industry cluster is dotted on the coast of the East China Sea, adjacent to Wolong New Port, backed by Banyueshan Provincial Highway, and its geographical location is unique.
The village has 412 households and 2,800 people, all of which are minority shareholders of these 48 village-run enterprises.
In that year, I caught up with the great man's southern tour, encouraged the development of the private economy, and proposed that the pace of reform should be bigger. For a time, this spring breeze from south to north blew all over the country, and Wolongtang Village also caught up with this spring breeze. It was established by Tian Xiangnong, then secretary of the provincial party committee, as a model of rural reform and construction. The name of the first village in Wudong The head screamed. As the leader of Wolongtang Village, Gu Yufei had a very good time in those few years. The Gu family gradually gained supremacy in this village.
Gu Yufei went out to see a doctor. After more than half a year, he suddenly returned home and announced that the old Gu family had a successor. The whole village was dumbfounded when they heard the news. Some important people in the village couldn't help but be curious. They came to see the wild species that Gu Dalong brought back under the pretext of visiting a doctor.
Gu Dalong is Gu Yufei's nickname, only the elders in the village are qualified to call him that.
It has been half a month since Gu Tianyou returned to the village with Gu Yufei, and all the elders who came to visit the hospital were Gu Yufei's elders, and naturally they were also elders of Tianyou. These people are not so much here to see the sick, but rather to see the way. When they entered the door, they had gifts in their hands, and their faces were full of smiles. When they saw Tianyou, everyone couldn't help but compliment them. However, from these people, Gu Tianyou could not feel the slightest sincerity.
In the last days of Gu Yufei's life, almost every day he seemed to have endless things to say to Tianyou. Gu Tianyou knew in his heart that he was explaining what happened behind him. In the final analysis, he still couldn't let go of Wolong Pond, which he founded with nothing, and he was uneasy and unwilling.
One day half a month later, in the Gu family's new house, in the room, under the greenhouse effect, a dozen pots of precious orchids are in full bloom against the regularity of the seasons, exuding a refreshing fragrance. Gu Yufei lay on the couch for several days in a row, and his life had entered the countdown.
Gu Tianyou sat on the edge of the bed, holding a bowl and slowly retracting the spoon.
"Don't waste your time, you have studied medicine, you should know that my time is up." Gu Yufei's voice was weak, but it was difficult to pronounce clearly.
Gu Tianyou looked at the blood on his face, and knew in his heart that this was a sign of the return of light, he looked left and right, and sighed: "What should come always comes, it's rare to have a home, I actually like it very much. this place."
On that day, I promised Gu Yufei to accompany him on the last journey of his life, and then he would leave by himself. Now, it's finally time to part. At this moment, Gu Tianyou felt a little reluctance in his heart. In the sixteen years since I came to the world, this is the first time that I call a place outside the prison my home.
"I know you have something to ask me in your heart. Ask me while I'm still awake." Gu Yufei stared at Tianyou, as if to engrave this moment in his mind and bring it to another world.
"She" Gu Tianyou hesitated for a moment before asking, "What kind of person is she?"
Of course she refers to Yu Shaofen. Gu Yufei narrowed his eyes slightly, as if immersed in his memories, and said slowly, "She is an extraordinary woman, born in an orphan, very smart, very good at reading, and has achieved good grades from elementary school to university."
"How did you come together and have me again?"
"She is an orphan, and the school I provided for her. When she graduated from college, the students in Yanjing caused trouble. She was one of the leaders and was wanted by the government. When she was desperate, she thought of me. I was doing private goods business at sea at that time, and she came to her door and offered to live with me, and I did not refuse."
Gu Yufei thought for a while, and then added: "Your mother, she is very good-looking, she speaks and does things neatly, and went to school in the capital. She is a very knowledgeable woman, much better than the one in my family. I have a lot of advice and suggestions for me, and we spent a happy time together."
"What happened later? How did she get into prison?" Gu Tianyou actually wanted to ask him why he had ignored his mother and son for so many years.
"We had an accident a few months after we got together. Our boat met the coast guard at sea, and then we started fighting. Your uncle and uncle Shuanglin jumped into the sea. I was good, but at that time, she refused to jump and stayed on the boat. During the body search, she suddenly drew a gun and killed an armed police officer. The three of us were floating at sea for a week, and we were all starving to death before we met you Han Uncle Zhang, when we returned to the land, your mother had already been sentenced to death. At that time, I wanted to get her out, but I found out what she did in Yanjing after asking someone. ."
He explained: "After that time, I have made up my mind to wash my hands and go ashore. At that time, Secretary Tian had just arrived in Wudong as the secretary of the provincial party committee. He was sent to Wolongtang village to work. My father treated him well, because of this. I went to the door because of the incense and finally got the factory permit and loan approval. At that time, it was okay to start a flour mill. The key is that I also started a rolling mill at the same time. At that time, the supply of materials was tight, and the steel market was controlled by state-owned enterprises. However, it is not easy for the private economy to enter this field, and the examinations at all levels are very strict, so I will.”
"Watching your woman die in prison with your child?" Gu Tianyou frowned slightly, suddenly thinking of Lord Long, the stubborn old man who was dismissed because of his four wives. I couldn't help but feel contempt.
"At that time, there were several women around me, your mother was just one of them, and I didn't know about her pregnancy at the time." Gu Yufei closed his eyes and sighed: "I never thought about it in my life. To be a moral sage, it’s up to you to take the blame until today, you can blame me or hate me.”
"The people who taught me since I was a child said that resentment is the way of the weak, and I like to have revenge!" Gu Tianyou changed his words and said: "It's her who should hate you and blame you, and no one chooses their parents. I have no right without you, so I have no right to hate you against you.”
"This time" Gu Yufei hesitated for a moment before continuing: "Thank you, I'm very happy to walk with me through the last part."
Gu Tianyou sensed some kind of expectation in his eyes, and knowing that he had more to do, he simply kept silent.
Gu Yufei continued: "I know you are leaving here."
Gu Tianyou was expressionless: "I'm not welcome here, and this is what we agreed before."
Gu Yufei: "What are you going to do after you leave?"
"I don't have any specific ideas yet. Let's take a step by step." Gu Tianyou said indifferently.
"Actually, you can consider staying." Gu Yufei blurted out, and quickly added: "I mean if you really don't have a good place to go, you might as well stay in Wolong Pond. After all, you are my son." /
He still said it. Despite what he had expected, Gu Tianyou remained silent for a long time before slowly saying: "You know what kind of environment I grew up in, and you should also understand that for me, in such an environment, every time I choose Mistakes are likely to mean there will be no next chance to choose."
The environment is the fairest and most ruthless teacher. Gu Tianyou's childhood has ended as long as he can remember. Although he was fortunate to be protected by Long Ye, the role of Long Ye in Tianyou's growth process was never a father or a grandfather. In the eyes of Lord Long, Tianyou has never been treated as a child. The process of Lord Long raising him is the process of cultivating an unqualified soldier into a qualified soldier.
In normal circumstances, when a child makes a mistake when faced with a choice, he will be protected by his parents and will have the opportunity to make a new choice. And Gu Tianyou never had such a chance. He can still remember the consequences of making the wrong choice for the first time in his life. At the age of eight, because he couldn't resist the temptation of a candy, he was tricked into the storage room by a sick kidnapper, and the events that followed almost ruined his entire life.
That was the first time Gu Tianyou saw someone bleeding. He would never forget the scene at that time. When that person tore his clothes and rushed towards him like a wolf, he raised his sharp toothbrush and scratched it open. The man's aorta, the hot blood spurted out at once, so much blood, everywhere
Gu Tianyou took back his thoughts, but Gu Yufei still looked at himself with anticipation.
"I know that you have lived a very hard life these years." Gu Yufei's voice trembled a little, "but I hope you will seriously think about it, is it really better to live in society than to stay?" He continued earnestly: "Wolongtang is my life's hard work, and you have the heart to watch this family business fall into the hands of the enemy?"
"You're too serious." Gu Tianyou sighed and said, "I'm just a sixteen-year-old boy with no power, no power, no foundation, what can I do if I stay?"
"If you were just an ordinary sixteen-year-old boy, I would naturally have no expectations for you." Gu Yufei persevered: "But you are not, your maturity and cultivation are far beyond my imagination. It was already determined that the Gu family had no successor, but you appeared at this time, isn't that God's will?"
"She should be the one you should thank the most for this."
"Yes, of course I will not forget your mother, I will soon go downstairs to thank her face to face." Gu Yufei continued: "But child, at the time of parting, I still want to ask you to believe me, even if I Go, the situation in Wolongtang will not be more sinister than what you faced in Qinzhou Prison. I will not leave you alone to face everything in the future. I assure you that no matter what happens to Wolongtang, at least you would have a much better life than living abroad."
After saying these words, Gu Yufei was exhausted, and only a little bit of unwillingness left his eyes burning like fire, scorching Gu Tianyou's heart.
Gu Tianyou's heart had been fighting for a long time, and finally nodded. When making this decision, Tianyou said to himself in his heart, even if it is to let him die.
Gu Yufei was full of reluctance, and finally closed his eyes slowly. The man who used to be all-powerful left with regret and unwillingness.
In the next few days, the whole village of Wolongtang went vegetarian, and there were mourning sounds from up and down. The original wife, Su Sauvignon, and their three daughters, Phi Ma and filial piety, buried him beautifully at the foot of the hill at the entrance of the village. Gu Tianyou was completely excluded and could only watch from the sidelines like an outsider.
Everyone in Murakami said that this wild breed is worthy of being raised in a prison, and he is indeed a wolf who is not familiar with feeding. Gu Tianyou was too lazy to pay attention to their criticism, he had already done what he had to do, and accompanied Gu Yufei through the final journey of his life, it seemed that there was no need to stay here any longer. Anyway, I don't want to compete with these people, as long as I leave silently like this, these voices will naturally disappear.
The world is unpredictable. Gu Tianyou, who has seen the dark side of human nature, has underestimated the complex side of human nature. He wanted to leave, but people refused to let him go. After Gu Yufei died on the seventh day, his original wife, Su Sauzhu, led three daughters and son-in-law to forcibly lock Gu Tianyou into the old house of the Gu family.
The reason is Gu Yufei's will.
There are forty-eight village-run enterprises in Wolongtang Village, almost all of which were founded by Gu Yufei, who holds most of the equity in these enterprises. Over the years, thanks to these enterprises, every family in Murakami has accumulated a lot of wealth. The Gu family is the richest man in the village.
According to Su Sauvignon, Gu Yufei's will left all bank deposits in his name, including several properties in the provincial capital and Qinzhou, to Su Sauvignon and his three daughters. And the 60% shares of the 48 companies in Wolongtang Village that he owns alone, together with the old house of the Gu family, are all inherited by the only son Gu Tianyou.
Of course Gu Tianyou knew that the tigress had no good intentions. He planned to come and go in a dashing manner, but he didn't expect to cover his head with a **** pot. To accept or not to accept? Gu Tianyou recalled Gu Yufei's last words, and suddenly became interested. He left and didn't know what to do, so he might as well stay and see what would happen.
