"Brother, you said someone is coming, who are they?"
Yun Huatong poured a cup of tea for his elder brother, frowned and said, "It's been more than five months since the news was sent out. Even if they come from the horizon, they still have enough time!"
"Hua Tong, please don't be impatient. These people underestimate the princes and are proud of the generals. How can you and I control them?"
Yun Huajun picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and said: "Others have given us the opportunity a long time ago, but we couldn't grasp it ourselves. Dad refused back then. Alas, if I don't talk about this anymore, you are getting old now."
Although Yun Huatong is only in his fifties this year, he looks older because of his hard work in business these years, and his sideburns are gray. He is more like an older brother.
"Brother, I'm fine. I'm afraid my mother's body and bones won't last a few more years."
Yun Huatong shook his head and said: "That young man named Chen Xiquan is a soft-spoken guy. Yesterday he actually moved his family to Russia. Brother, when people over there come, will we not be able to explain?"
The news of Chen Xiquan's overseas trip reached the Yun family's ears only one day later. This is also the reason why Yun Huatong, who has never lived in the old house, came here.
You must know that although Yun Huajun does not interfere with the family business, he is the de facto voice of the Yun family. Whenever major matters arise, Yun Huajun needs to make the final decision.
"What era are we in now? Are your men still trying to bully and dominate the market?"
Yun Huajun glared at his younger brother and said angrily: "Other people's gold mine is obviously worth 30 billion, but you gave him 15 billion, and you blame him for not selling it and using those dirty methods to force him.
other people.
Now that Chen Xiquan has sold the place and raised funds, are you dumbfounded? I have already said that doing business by relying on relationships can only be done for a while, not for the rest of your life!"
"Brother, I have already reprimanded them. This is my fault, but... what should we do now?"
As the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father. Yun Huajun is nearly twenty years older than Yun Huatong, so although Yun Huatong is also in his fifties, he still dared not even raise his head after being lectured by his elder brother.
Yun Huajun sighed and said: "When they come, tell the truth. In front of those people, don't think of any secrets, and don't lie!"
"I know, brother!"
Yun Huatong nodded, but then a curious look appeared on his face and asked: "Brother, are those people really as magical as you said? Aren't they just charlatans?"
"Insolent and nonsense!"
After hearing what his second brother said, Yun Huajun showed a trace of panic on his face. After looking around, he lowered his voice and said, "Hua Tong, please don't say these words again, otherwise it will bring disaster to our Yun family.
Disaster!"
"Brother, I...I'm just asking. I won't say anything in front of outsiders." Seeing his eldest brother's anger, Yun Huatong immediately changed his words, but there was still a look of disapproval on his face.
Yun Huatong was born in the year of the founding of the People's Republic of China. He had not experienced the war years, and Mr. Yun basically did not suffer much impact during that turbulent period, so Yun Huatong had never encountered any setbacks in his life.
This also cultivated the arrogance in his bones. Except for his eldest brother, he rarely showed any color to outsiders.
Moreover, his father and elder brother used to be cryptic when talking about those people, so although Yun Huatong did not dare to disobey his elder brother, he always felt that they were making a fuss out of a molehill.
"If you still have the same surname in the future, you will definitely suffer!"
Yun Huajun shook his head and said: "Forget it, you are not young now, let me tell you about it.
When my father was in enemy-occupied territory, he was once blocked by the Japanese in a valley. There was no place to hide there. When he was about to be caught by the Japanese, a white light suddenly flashed, and the soldiers who came to hunt my father were there.
More than a dozen little devils were all separated from their bodies!
After these Japs died, a Taoist priest appeared in front of his father. According to his father, the Taoist man took him and walked past the Japs outside in a grand manner, and no one noticed them.
At that time, my father was a staunch materialist. After experiencing such a thing personally, he naturally refused to let him leave, so he wanted to persuade him to join our team.
But the Taoist was not moved at all. After asking his father's name, mist actually rose from under his feet, and he flew away from the sky in the clouds..."
"Is there such a thing? Why has my father never told me?"
Yun Huatong showed an incredible look on his face and asked: "Brother, what about the back? Has that Taoist never appeared again?"
"Of course it happened. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I'd probably have the same idea as you and wouldn't believe it..."
There was a look of recollection in Yun Huajun's eyes, "That was more than forty years ago. You also know that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, my father has been in charge of economic work. It was one night in the second year after he was awarded the title of general..."
Yun Huajun's thoughts went back to more than forty years ago. He was almost thirty years old at that time and worked in a ministry in the capital. Since he had just gotten married, he did not separate from his father and still lived in this courtyard house.
Mr. Yun is a very open-minded person and is very casual about the education of his children. He often discusses some economic situations with his eldest son. It was a summer night. When the father and son were sitting in the backyard talking, something suddenly happened in the yard.
A cloud of fog appeared.
When the fog dissipated, a Taoist priest wearing green hemp Taoist attire appeared in front of the two of them. Yun Huajun was frightened at that time.
You know, most of the people living here are central-level leaders. The security outside is tight. Although it is not so exaggerated that even mosquitoes can't fly in, it is absolutely impossible that just when I was about to shout out to the guards outside, I was stopped.
My father stopped me.
From the conversation between the two, Yun Huajun learned about the past incident that happened to his father, and this Taoist was the one who rescued his father from the Japanese encirclement.
When he met his savior and knew that he was not an ordinary person, Mr. Yun was naturally overjoyed. However, what the Taoist said straight to the point put Mr. Yun in a dilemma.
The man asked Mr. Yun for a batch of metal supplies that were in short supply in the country at that time, and said that he could exchange them for two pills that could extend his life for twenty years. This was considered as Mr. Yun's repayment of his life-saving grace.
On the one hand, it was the national justice, and on the other hand, he was a lifesaver. After much thought, Yun Lao did the only thing in his life that was against his will.
At that time, there were not many people in the country who understood the economy. Many supplies were controlled by Mr. Yun, and no one was there to supervise him. Three days later, Mr. Yun sent someone to transport the materials to an abandoned warehouse.
The Taoist didn't know what method he used. In just one night, all the metal supplies that filled the warehouse disappeared.
The day after the supplies disappeared, the Taoist came to Mr. Yun's home again and handed him an atlas, two pills and three pieces of jade.
The Taoist said that as long as Mr. Yun can find any thing in the album, he can use the jade to contact him, and then he can exchange it for the elixir of longevity.
When the Taoist left that time, Yun Huajun saw it clearly. First, a cloud of mist enveloped the Taoist, and then the Taoist soared into the sky as if he were waiting for a ladder to the sky.
However, when the Taoist body lifted into the air, the fog became lighter, as if it disappeared out of thin air. The guards outside the courtyard could not even see the fog.
Yun Huajun and his son saw the magic of the Taoist, and they naturally believed in those two pills.
Mr. Yun loved his son so much that he gave a whole pill to Yun Huajun. He and his wife each took half a pill. Yun Huatong was just five or six years old at that time. Mr. Yun was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he did not give it to his younger son.
.
After taking the pills, Mr. Yun clearly felt that some of the old injuries in his body had improved, and he knew in his heart that the pills had worked.
It was just that his actions had harmed the interests of the country. Mr. Yun felt guilty and kept the album and jade sealed. Until his death, he never looked for the objects in the album for the Taoist.
Although he only took half a pill, Mr. Yun still lived to be more than ninety years old. If he hadn't been injured many times in his early years and had troubles in his later years, he might not have been able to live to this day.
"Brother, you look young. Did you take that elixir?"
After hearing what his eldest brother said, Yun Huatong's eyes almost popped out of his head. He had never heard his eldest brother talk about this before. He just thought that he took good care of himself and looked young.
"Hua Tong, it's true." Yun Huajun nodded.
The look of shock on Yun Huatong's face did not disappear. He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Brother, since you said that my father did not look for the things in the album anymore, how do you explain what happened back then?"
Yun Huatong was asking about the private ownership of his company and his transfer to the Metal Research Institute. These things were impossible to accomplish without his father's approval.
Yun Huajun said: "That was arranged by me. My father didn't object, so he acquiesced."
By the time we entered the 1980s, Yun Huajun had already been appointed as a deputy in a certain ministry, and he was running these things behind the scenes. By the time Mr. Yun found out, everything had been dealt with.
First of all, society was in a period of transformation at that time, and the great man also wanted to have a pilot project, and it was the son of an old comrade who did it. He was tolerant at the time and gave Mr. Yun the face and did not pursue the case further.
"I understand, brother, so what cold and hot stones and blue metals you asked me to find are all from that album?"
A look of sudden realization appeared on Yun Huatong's face. No wonder his elder brother, who was always so open-minded, would often urge him to look for those strange objects.
