My courtyard shelter

After the banquet, Xu Dong declined Luo Fuyin's investment request. After all, Luyang and even Wanzhou as a whole were not a good place for investment.

If it is a coastal area, you can invest a fortune or build another seaweed cultivation base.

Unfortunately, there is still too little water in the interior.

Early the next morning, Xu Bin sobered up completely. Taking advantage of breakfast time, he specially expressed his gratitude to Xu Dong. If the third child hadn't stopped him yesterday, he would have lived with regrets until his death.

Xu Dong waved his hand and said seriously: "Boss, I'm not telling you. You need to change your habit of drinking. Especially when discussing business, don't touch wine if you can drink tea."

"I understand. The situation yesterday was not special. The man named Luo kept playing the emotional card. I was also homesick and fell into his trap without paying attention."

Xu Bin said angrily.

Xu Dong curled his lips secretly. It was obvious that the boss was self-conscious and vain. He didn't know how much he was worth after being complimented by others.

Of course, the most important thing is drinking and causing trouble.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go visit the graves of Grandpa and his friends later. Then we will go to the old place for a stroll in the afternoon and return to the capital early tomorrow morning."

"Can't you stay a few more days?"

Xu Bin was a little reluctant.

He hasn't been back for twenty years. Now that he finally has the chance, he wants to chat with his old colleagues and neighbors!

Let everyone know that Xu Bin is rich.

"You have to keep it to yourself, I'll leave tomorrow morning anyway." Xu Dong explained casually: "If you don't leave, more and more people will come to 'beg for alms'. By then, you won't be able to escape unless you spend tens of millions." "

"Forget it, let's leave together tomorrow morning."

Xu Bin quickly changed his words.

His money was all hard-earned, and he still wanted to leave it to his grandchildren, so he couldn't let it go to waste.

…

After breakfast, the group chartered a commercial car and went straight to the cemetery area in the suburbs.

Because Xu Dong's grandfather was an orphan, there are only three graves in Luyang, namely Xu Dong's grandfather, grandmother, and uncle who died young.

Two hours later, the cemetery finally arrived.

Due to the flood the year before, this cemetery area was also severely damaged. Broken tombstones and broken bricks were everywhere, and the entire park looked in disarray.

What's even more amazing is that in such a large cemetery area, there is only one gatekeeper, and the old man is dozing in the guard room.

Xu Bin quickly stepped forward and knocked on the window: "Hey, wake up? We are going in to sweep the tomb."

"You just go in, no one is in charge here."

The gatekeeper waved his hand impatiently.

Xu Dong then interjected: "Brother, we haven't been back for decades. The park has changed too much. Can you help us lead the way?"

After saying that, he handed over two big apples.

When the gatekeeper saw the apple, he immediately jumped up from the recliner and couldn't wait to take the apple.

Hey guys, a big customer is here.

"It's easy to talk about. Where did you come back from?"

"Kangaroo country." Xu Dong replied,

"What a great place. I heard that the spicy food is popular overseas. If I hadn't gotten older and couldn't walk anymore, I might have wanted to venture outside."

"Old brother, there is something wrong with your words. Why do you... look down on me, the gatekeeper?"

The gatekeeper narrowed his eyes unconsciously.

"How is that possible? Brother, you misunderstood. My eldest brother speaks more straightforwardly, so don't mind."

Xu Dong quickly helped explain.

My ancestral grave is still in the cemetery. It's best not to offend the people in front of me. There's no need at all.

The janitor nodded, and then took out a work permit from the desk drawer:

"I forgot to tell you that I am not only the gatekeeper, but also the director of this cemetery."

Xu Dong took the work permit and took a look at it, and then said politely: "It turns out to be Director Liu. I'm disrespectful."

"Isn't it a fake ID?"

Xu Bin suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that the old gatekeeper was actually the head of the garden. What he just said was actually just polite words, but he actually took it seriously.

"You don't have to doubt that there are dozens of employees in the park, but the city is carrying out reconstruction work, and the others have been temporarily seconded."

Director Liu explained casually.

"I see." Xu Dong nodded, and then asked: "Director Liu, when will the cemetery return to normal?"

"We'll have to wait. The city is short of money and can't come here for the time being. I hope you can understand that no matter what, the living are always more important than the dead."

Xu Bin couldn't help complaining: "Our third son donated more than a billion to his hometown and even said hello to the city. Is this how you repay us?"

"Excuse my stupidity, who are you?"

Director Liu became cautious.

"My dear Xu Dong, next to me is my eldest brother Xu Bin."

Xu Dong reluctantly took off his mask.

He didn't even know what to say, and the boss's tone of voice was too loose. He could reveal his identity even by scanning the grave.

Director Liu's eyes widened instantly: "You...are you Xu Dong? The richest man in the world?"

"I am retired now and am no longer the richest man in the world." Xu Dong became modest.

"Please sit down quickly. I will inform Luo Fuyin right away that we have a distinguished guest from Luyang, lest he blame me for not doing things well." Principal Liu said impatiently.

Xu Dong quickly stopped the other party: "Don't bother, we just met Luo Fuyin last night, and we had a pleasant conversation throughout the whole process."

"That's it..."

Director Liu was a little undecided.

"What our third child said is true. He donated 100 million to the city yesterday, and there are also several libraries." Xu Bin added immediately.

"Okay, I'll take you in right now." Director Liu nodded, and then changed the topic: "Don't worry, you two, the city has already allocated funds to repair your family's cemetery, and there is absolutely no sign of neglect. "

"Really? Thank you very much."

Xu Dong said with sincere gratitude.

"Serious words, Mr. Xu, you are the pride of all our people in Luyang. Besides, you have donated so much money to your hometown. We can't help you much. We can only do our little bit to take good care of your family's ancestral graves."

Everyone walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the place.

Xu Bin looked at the newly renovated cemetery in front of him and no longer had any complaints.

Xu Dong stepped forward and touched the towering pine trees on both sides of the tomb, and couldn't help but curiously said:

"Director Liu, where did these pine trees come from?"

"According to Luo Fuyin's instructions, we specially transplanted them from the Botanical Garden. Don't worry, I will come over and water them every day to see how well these pine trees grow."
