Everyone in the audience paid close attention to the conversation between the two old men, and finally learned the whole story.
The old man who was called Ergou by Mr. Lin was also named Lin. His original name was Lin Ergou. He was originally a villager in Laolin Village. In those turbulent times, his whole family was killed by the Japanese, but he escaped because he hid in the mountains.
However, because he saved a foreign woman, he was expelled from the village by the people of Laolin Village.
Mr. Lin was a few years older than Lin Ergou. The two had a good relationship at the time. When Lin Ergou escaped, Mr. Lin also stole money and dry food from home and gave it to Lin Ergou.
Decades passed in a blink of an eye, but Mr. Lin never expected that Lin Ergou was still alive and back.
The two brothers were very sad together, sighing that things in the world are unpredictable. And old man Lin Ergou also talked to old man Lin about his experiences after escaping.
After Lin Ergou was driven out of Laolin Village, he begged for food and walked southeast. During this period, he suffered a lot. He was dragged by the national army to become a young man, and was later transferred to Treasure Island.
In Baodao, Lin Ergou changed his name to Lin Jiaren. He first worked in a cotton mill and met a local female cotton mill worker. Later, he married this female worker. With the help of his old father-in-law, he opened a small workshop.
Until it grows into a large enterprise.
As he grew older, Mr. Lin Jiaren missed his hometown more and more, and he kept paying close attention to the situation in the distant Laolin Village. Until he heard that a gold mine was found in Laolin Village, he decided to return to his hometown and make some contributions to his hometown.
After many inspections, Mr. Lin Jiaren decided that after his death in the future, he would leave his ashes in his hometown of Laolin Village. This is why Lin Qi, the representative of the Homesick Company, proposed to purchase the mausoleum.
In fact, subconsciously, Mr. Lin Jiaren has never forgotten his roots. This can be tasted from his new name, Lin Jiaren, and the name of Homesick Company.
Isn’t the homophonic pronunciation of Lin Jiaren the same as the Lin family? Isn’t the meaning of homesickness company the same as missing my hometown?
But Lin Qi, the representative of the Homesick Company, who is the granddaughter of Lin Jiaren, did not know this. She did everything according to Lin Jiaren's instructions, and the result was the embarrassing situation in front of her.
Fortunately, Mr. Lin Jiaren also quietly appeared at the Old Lin Village venue on the day of the bidding meeting. Otherwise, I don’t know what kind of big incident would have occurred.
As a result, Mr. Lin Jiaren explained everything that everyone didn't understand just now. People couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and they all blamed themselves for wrongly blaming Representative Lin Qi.
At this time, Tang Kangming also stepped down from the podium, shook hands cordially with Mr. Lin Jiaren, and on behalf of Houshan Township, he welcomed the old man back to his hometown and thanked him for his contribution to Laolin Village.
At this time, everyone fully understood the real intention of the Sixiang Company to invest in the development of the Laolin Village gold mine and return 50% of the proceeds to the villagers of Laolin Village. This was Mr. Lin Jiaren's way of repaying his kindness to his hometown people.
Although he was kicked out of the village at the beginning, he never complained at all, but still wanted to repay Laolin Village and the people of Laolin Village.
When Tang Kangming and Mr. Lin Jiaren shook hands tightly, warm applause broke out on and off the stage, which lasted for a long time.
At this time, everyone reacted in shock. Since the Homesick Company came with goodwill and a mood to repay their hometown, what is the purpose of the Shorty Island Lindu Company? Could it be that they also came to level with goodwill? Everyone turned their attention
With a flick of the brush, it was all directed towards Du Lin, a native of Chaozi Island who was still on the stage.
Tang Yin discovered that after hearing the conversation between Mr. Lin Jiaren and Mr. Lin, the old foreigner suddenly became excited, and her body even kept trembling.
By the time the big hands of Tang Kangming and Mr. Lin Jiaren were clasped together, the old lady from abroad had tears in her eyes. She could no longer hold back and walked towards Tang Kangming and the others tremblingly.
"Are you Brother Ergou?" The white-haired old lady walked up to Mr. Lin Jiaren, her expression was particularly excited, and she asked Mr. Lin in a harsh voice, with a very obvious tremor in her voice.
"Who are you?..." Mr. Lin Jiaren looked at the white-haired old lady with confused eyes and asked in confusion.
When Du Lin, a native of Chaozi Island, saw the old lady on the stage, he was shocked and exclaimed: "Grandma, why are you here too?" His words were still pure Mandarin.
The white-haired old lady waved to Du Lin, and then replied to Mr. Lin Jiaren: "Brother Ergou, I am the Huizi you saved back then.
"I didn't expect that you would suffer so much in order to save me. I really can't help but cause you trouble." As he spoke, the old lady knelt down on the ground with a thud.
Old Mr. Lin Jiaren was so frightened that he hurriedly tried to help the old lady up, but due to the difference between men and women, he just froze on the spot and was at a loss what to do.
Du Lin walked up to the old lady and wanted to help her up, but was pulled to his knees by the old lady. The old lady asked him to kowtow to Mr. Lin Jiaren to thank him.
Of course, Mr. Lin Jiaren couldn't let it go. He stretched out his hand to help Du Lin up, and with a wink asked his granddaughter Lin Qi to help the old lady up too.
The old lady was helped up by Lin Qi, but she turned to Old Mrs. Lin with Du Lin, knelt down on the ground again, kowtowed to Old Mrs. Lin, and said excitedly: "Are you Brother Da Zhuang?"
As a result, there was another rush, and Lin Qi helped the old lady get up.
Everyone was even more confused about this. How come after a long time, the people of Chaozi Island actually knew Mr. Lin? Could it be that there was some legendary story in it?
Everyone's speculations turned out to be true. This old lady, Huizi, had some connections with both Mr. Lin and Mr. Lin Jiaren.
After the excited narration by the three elders, everyone finally understood the whole story. What was very interesting was that this old lady was actually the culprit who caused Mr. Lin Jiaren to be expelled from the village.
When the Japanese raided the village, many people in Laolin Village were killed, including the family members of Mr. Lin Jiaren. Among them was the Japanese leader Fujino, who was the leader of this group of Japanese. He was a very cruel man. Most of the villagers were killed by this.
This guy killed me with his own hands.
Among this group of Japs, there is a special character, the female Japs team doctor, she is Keiko.
Keiko was originally a member of the medical team of the Japanese squadron. She fell behind when the battlefield was transferred and happened to meet Fujino's team. When Fujino saw Keiko's youth and beauty, he raped her and kept her with him ever since. Keiko wanted to escape.
Fujino's magic capture has never been successful.
By the time the Japanese raided Laolin Village, Huizi was already pregnant.
For the sake of safety, Fujino decided to spend the night in the closed Laolin Village that night. However, the villagers of Laolin Village or others who had already hid in the mountains sent agile villagers to quietly ambush Fujino's team at night, hoping to avenge the dead villagers.
Among the people who attacked Fujino's team were Mr. Lin Jiaren and Mr. Lin. The weapons they used were homemade bows and arrows, which were originally used by mountain people for hunting.
Ordinarily, even if they use bows and arrows, the villagers should not go out of the mountains and forests. After all, these Japs have guns in their hands. Unless the villagers use bows and arrows to hit the Japs' vital points, it will be difficult to kill the Japs with one blow. Once the Japs are angered, the consequences will be very serious.
serious.
The reason why the villagers dared to attack the Japanese at night was actually based on something. Deep in the jungle in the back mountain of Laolin Village, there grew several very special trees - curare trees, also known as blood-sealed throats.
This kind of tree is very similar to the mulberry tree, but its resin contains highly toxic substances that can seal the throat when bleeding occurs. The locals in Laolin Village often cut a wound in the trunk of the tree to let the resin flow out. After obtaining this resin, they will
The resin is mixed with strychnine and applied to arrowheads to kill prey. This tree is abundant in ancient Indian settlements in North America, but is very rare in the interior.
Once this poisonous arrow hits an enemy, no matter where it is, as long as it can cause a wound, it will enter the human body from the wound and cause poisoning, paralyzing the heart, sealing blood vessels, coagulating the blood, and causing rapid death within -30 minutes.
It was terrifying, hence the name: See blood and seal the throat. With this weapon, the villagers were very confident in killing Fujino's team of Japanese soldiers late at night.
At that time, Mr. Lin and Ergou, Mr. Lin Jiaren, were divided into a group and cooperated to hunt the Japanese.
With the effect of poisonous arrows, it was late at night, and in an environment familiar to the villagers, Fujino's team was all killed silently. However, among the villagers who participated in the attack on Fujino's team, only a few people were slightly injured, and no one was slightly injured.
Serious injury or death.
Mr. Lin and Lin Jiaren were the first to rush into Fujino's temporary headquarters and garrison with their quick hands. They were also the first to discover Keiko.
At this time, Keiko was regarded as a prisoner of Fujino. She had no weapons in her hands, so she naturally became the prisoner of Lin Jiaren and the others.
When Keiko saw that Lin Jiaren and other villagers actually killed Fujino and others, she told the truth of the matter, hoping that they would let her go.
Lin Jiaren was the youngest at the time. Seeing the pity for the pregnant Keiko, he thought she was also a victim and secretly released Keiko.
At first, Mr. Lin disagreed, but he couldn't stand Lin Jiaren's persuasion and Keiko's begging, so he agreed with Lin Jiaren and deliberately covered up for Lin Jiaren.
However, Lin Jiaren's behavior was still known to the elders in the village. At this time, with the help of Lin Jiaren, Kezi had already taken a shortcut and escaped.
The elders in the village believed that leaving Huizi behind would be a disaster and would probably attract revenge from a large number of Japanese soldiers, so they angrily expelled Lin Jiaren from Laolin Village.
But it turned out that instead of attracting the Japanese soldiers, Huizi deliberately led the Japanese soldiers in the opposite direction, allowing the people of Laolin Village to escape.
Not long after Keiko escaped, she returned to China, and then she founded Lindu Company. The purpose was to remind herself that it was the righteousness of the people of Laolin Village that allowed her to escape. She wanted to return to Laolin Village.
crime.
Like Lin Jiaren, she was always paying attention to the situation in Laolin Village. When she learned that Laolin Village needed funds to develop gold mines, she immediately sent her grandson Du Lin there. The so-called shrine Du Lin mentioned was certainly not Jing~
