"Ye Fang?!" Ye Chengan suddenly remembered where he had heard this name. Two days ago, No. [-] Mansion called him and said that someone wanted to see Wan Feng. That person seemed to be named Ye Fang. Ye Chengan suddenly looked up at Ye Fang, as if he wanted to find out what Ye Fang was looking for, but at this moment Ye Youxin came to Ye Fang after arranging the old generals.

"I know you have many questions in your mind, but now is not the time to talk about this matter. I just received a call from above. Someone wants to see you." Ye Youxin said.

"Okay." Ye Fang replied.

Ye Youxin looked at Ye Chengguang and the others and said, "You should go back with your eldest aunt and the others first."

"Yes." Ye Chengguang and others looked at each other, nodded in agreement, and then left.

"Let's go." Ye Youxin said to Ye Fang.

After leaving Xishan Cemetery, Ye Youxin and Ye Fang got into their own cars respectively. Perhaps Ye Youxin deliberately avoided Ye Fang, and the two cars drove towards the capital city one after the other. What surprised Ye Fang was that the two cars did not go elsewhere, but returned directly to Xiyuan. After getting off the car, Ye Fang found that martial law had been enforced around Xiyuan. The passageways around Xiyuan had been cleared, and police had set up roadblocks not far away.

"Who is here? Such a big battle." Ye Fang wondered in his heart.

"Let's go in with me." Ye Youxin and Ye Fang walked into the reception hall of Xiyuan one after another. As soon as they entered the reception hall, Ye Fang saw a burly man with his back to him, and his eyes were falling on On the plaque "The First Garden in Beijing" inscribed by Hai Ziqing, he kept nodding his head while looking at it and said, "Uncle Hai's words are getting more and more interesting."

Ye Youxin took a step forward and whispered, "Brother Fei, we're here."

The burly man slowly turned around and said to Ye Youxin, "Are you interrupting your polite worship?"

"No, the time is just right." Ye Youxin greeted Ye Fang and said, "Ye Fang, my name is Uncle He."

Ye Fang was slightly stunned, then quickly stepped forward and said politely, "Hello, Uncle He!"

"Okay, your name has been whispered in my ears countless times by Youxin. Today I finally met the real person." After saying this, the man surnamed He chuckled. After laughing, he couldn't help but cough a few times. Ye Youxin hurriedly came up. He asked for help but he refused.

"I don't have much time, let's go in and chat." The man surnamed He walked in front, followed closely by Ye Youxin and Ye Fang. Ye Youxin did not reveal much to Ye Fang about the identity and background of the person in front of him. But now Ye Fang is very sensitive to politics. There is only one senior general of our army named He who can be called Fei Ge by Ye Youxin. He is the son of the founding marshal. As for his current position, Ye Fang I really don’t know.

The entire Xiyuan has been vacated, and there are guards on duty in every corner of the courtyard. Ye Fang remembers that Xiyuan has never been so quiet.

The three of them came to the private room No. [-] of Qianyuan and sat down. Someone had already made tea and set up tea sets.

"The thing I came to talk to you about today is about the Vagarian. There have been letters passing around for a while. I think it's better for me to talk to you in person. On the one hand, I can listen to you talk about the whole thing in person. After that, on the other hand, I would also like to express my gratitude for your contribution to the national coastal defense construction." The man surnamed He said slowly.

Ye Fang clearly felt that the man surnamed He was not in good health. He seemed to be suffering a lot of pain between his brows, but he did appear to be calm and relaxed.

"Uncle He, these are what I should do as a Chinese. I really can't take the word thank you seriously." Ye Fang said politely.

"Thank you for these two words. You definitely deserve it." The man surnamed He affirmed, "Tell me about your magical experience this time. I especially want to know the whole story from you."

"Oh, okay." Ye Fang started talking when he arrived in Haojiang, and described in detail the events surrounding the auction of the Wageliang, and even told the man surnamed He the subsequent battle of wits and courage with the CIA. . The man surnamed He nodded frequently when he heard this. After Ye Fang told the story, he sighed, "You can afford the words "wisdom and courage."

Then the man surnamed He inquired about the situation of the Wagarian in detail, and Ye Fang described in detail what he saw and heard when he landed on the Wagarian, because Ye Fang did not have any photos in his hand, and he did not have access to the Internet. Instant transmission, so Ye Fang could only use his own words to describe the appearance of the Wagarian. Even so, the man surnamed He also listened with interest, as if he had already seen the appearance of the Wagarian through Ye Fang's description.

Ye Fang saw expectations for the future in the eyes of the man named He, and of course he also saw a trace of regret.

I heard the man named He sigh with emotion, "I really want to see what it looks like with my own eyes."

"Brother Fei, you can definitely see it." Ye Youxin said solemnly.

The man surnamed He waved his hand and said, "I know my body, but I really don't have confidence in whether I can keep it home." After saying this, the man surnamed He smiled self-deprecatingly, and then said to Ye Fang, "Now Wag The good ship is now stranded in Turkey, and the country has set up a special team to negotiate with Turkey. This negotiation is destined to be difficult. We must have confidence and be prepared for a long period of tug-of-war."

"Alas, our strength is still too weak, otherwise why would we allow a Turkish clown to show off his power in front of us." Ye Youxin said angrily.

"We must have confidence in the country. The national coastal defense strength may start from Varyag. If we give China 20 years, it will surely amaze the world. Unfortunately, I can't see it, but you can definitely see it. As a witness to this period of history And the founder, you are proud!" The man surnamed He looked at Ye Fang with hopeful eyes and said.

"Uncle He, you will definitely see the Vagliang return." Ye Fang said in a deep voice.

"I hope so. I will try to live for two more years." The man surnamed He laughed and said.

Ye Fang and Ye Youxin sent the man surnamed He to the gate of Xiyuan. When they were leaving, the man surnamed He took Ye Fang's sign language and said sincerely, "What you are doing now is the same as Youxin is doing to forge swords for the country. Move forward." It has been recommended that no one with the surname Ye for hundreds of years is a coward, and I believe you are the same. This may be the last time we meet. There is a sentence I want to give you. If you want to reach the top, you must endure the pain; if you want to be moved, you must endure it. Enter it; if you want to be at peace with your life, you must avoid its evils; if you want to indulge your desires, you must give up their emptiness; if you want your heart to be happy, you must show your ambition; if you want to succeed, you must have a dream; if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Goodbye !”

The man surnamed He patted Ye Fang on the shoulder and got into the car. Ye Youxin also left with him. Immediately, the security around Xiyuan came into contact. Ye Fang looked at the leaving motorcade, still thinking about the man surnamed He's stay. The words to yourself.

Ye Fang knew that the old man in front of him might have been seriously ill, or even that he didn't have much time left, so he came to see himself, and more importantly, he wanted to listen to Ye Fang tell the story of the Waglian, because he knew that maybe he really I can't hold on to the day when the Vagrian returns home. Only then did Ye Fang know the true identity of the old man in front of him. Among the upper echelons, he was the one who advocated the construction of China's aircraft carrier fleet and then promoted the construction of national coastal defense military projects. His identity was the deputy commander of the national navy. It was from this moment that Since then, the Chinese Navy has officially entered the era of aircraft carrier construction.

Ye Fang tossed and turned in bed that night. Too many things happened that day, leaving Ye Fang in a fog. What surprised Ye Fang was that Zhang Xiuying did not return to Xiyuan after attending the memorial ceremony. Ye Fang guessed that she should have returned to Ye's family. After all, she had not returned to Ye's family for a long time. Ye Fang's mind was in confusion. He didn't know when Ye Fang fell into a deep sleep. In his dream, Ye Fang seemed to see a person who looked exactly like him walking towards him. Then he stretched out his hands and shouted to Ye Fang, "My Son." Ye Fang woke up from his sleep in shock.

Ye Fang looked up and saw that it was just dawn, and the hands of the wall clock were pointing at 04:30.

Ye Fang, who was no longer sleepy at this time, got up to wash up, put on his clothes and walked out quietly from the back door of the inner house. Ye Fang stretched out his stiff body and walked aimlessly along the alley. This was the first time in a long time that Ye Fang went out for a walk like an ordinary person, walking alone like this. Suddenly Ye Fang had the illusion that he had returned to a time when he was penniless a few years ago.

Thinking of this, Ye Fang suddenly touched his pocket and found that he still had nothing, not even a penny on him.

"Young man, you didn't bring any money when you went out, did you? Sit down if you have nothing to do, and just give me the money later." said an old man selling bean juice and fried dough sticks on the street. The old man regarded Ye Fang as a guest for breakfast.

Seeing this, Ye Fang just sat down and said with a smile, "My home is in the courtyard in front. I will have someone bring the money to you later."

"Well, what would you like to eat?" the old man asked.

"Here comes a bowl of bean juice and two fried dough sticks." Ye Fang said.

After a while, the old man placed a bowl of bean juice and two fried dough sticks in front of Ye Fang. Old Beijingers were not used to drinking bean juice. Fortunately, Ye Fang was not averse to bean juice and ate it with relish.

"Young man, do you live nearby? I don't think I've seen you very often." The old man turned into a fried dough stick and chatted with Ye Fang.

"I live in the courtyard in front. I rarely come out here." Ye Fang said.

The old man followed Ye Fang's gaze and looked in the direction of Xiyuan, sighing, "The people living there are either rich or noble, and they are all from wealthy families."

Ye Fang smiled and continued eating fried dough sticks without saying anything.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of braking on the roadside, and a man got out of the car and came straight to Ye Fang.

"Ye Fang?!" the man asked tentatively.

Ye Fang looked up and was surprised. This person was none other than Ding Yong, his college dormmate and the boss of the dormitory.

"Boss? Why is it you!" Ye Fang was also very excited to see Ding Yong, and the two hugged each other heavily. Although Ye Fang went to university in the capital, it was not a well-known university. There are a total of four people in the dormitory. Ding Yong is the eldest brother, and Ye Fang is the fourth oldest in the dormitory due to his young age. When Ye Fang was in school, he accidentally beat someone and seriously injured him because of the conflict with other departments. The person who instigated the conflict was Ding Yong. After that, the other three people in the dormitory, including Ding Yong, received major demerits, and Ye Fang Fang was sentenced to seven years in prison because he missed and seriously injured the other party. He didn't even have a chance to record a demerit, and he was also disqualified from continuing to go to school.

"When did you come out? Why didn't you contact us when you came out?" Ding Yong said.

"At that time, I just wanted to find a place to stay and eat. How could I have the face to contact you? Besides, you have already graduated from college." Ye Fang's implication was that firstly, he had no face to contact you, and secondly, he did not have your contact information.

"What are you doing now? Where do you live?" Ding Yong asked.

"It's just a small business." Ye Fang said.

"Oh, it's all because of me. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have hurt anyone and gone to jail." Ding Yong is very loyal in the dormitory. Because he is the eldest brother in the dormitory, he takes good care of the brothers in the dormitory.

"Boss, it's all over. Don't mention it again." Ye Fang said.

"Okay, by the way, I told you. The second and third children are also in the capital. The second child took the civil service examination and the third child also graduated from the postgraduate entrance examination. The four of us brothers can be together again." Ding Yong said happily.

"That's good." Ye Fang nodded and said.

"Youngest, this is my phone number. If you need anything in the capital, please contact me anytime. I'm currently in the clothing business in Xidan. If you don't get along as well as you want, just do it with me. You may not be able to achieve great wealth, but you can guarantee that you will have enough food and clothing. Yours. And we have a class reunion soon, so we brothers will meet and have a good chat." Ding Yong said loudly.

"Boss, it's okay for the four brothers in our dormitory to meet each other. As for the class reunion, I won't go." Ye Fang said.

"What, are you worried that people will look at you through colored glasses? No, you are overthinking it. After all, we are still classmates for two years, and we are all in different walks of life now. Maybe there may be some opportunities for cooperation. That's it. , I will contact you when the time for the party is set. If there is something else at the store, I will leave first." After Ding Yong finished speaking, he patted Ye Fang's shoulder heavily and drove away without waiting for Ye Fang's consent.

Ye Fang saw that the car Ding Yong drove was a Santana. It seemed that Ding Yong's clothing business was doing very well, otherwise he would not have been able to afford a Santana within a few years of graduation. Ye Fang glanced at the business card, which read Dayong Clothing Wholesale Co., Ltd., General Manager Ding Yong.

"This name is really unsophisticated." Ye Fang smiled and put away the business card.

At this time, Ye Fang received a call from Leng Chuan. Leng Chuan disappeared when he woke up in the morning. Ye Fang quickly contacted him, worried that something would happen to Ye Fang. After Ye Fang told Leng Chuan his location, he returned to his seat and quietly drank the bean juice and finished the fried dough sticks.

Soon, Leng Chuan drove a black Mercedes-Benz business car and stopped in front of the breakfast stall. The old man buying breakfast thought that another distinguished guest was here, but found out that the car was here to pick up Ye Fang.

"Leng Chuan, pay." Ye Fang said to Leng Chuan.

Then Leng Chuan took out a hundred-dollar bill from his pocket and threw it into the old man's money box. Upon seeing this, the old man quickly said, "Young man, I can't find your money."

"It's okay, uncle, I'll keep the money with you first, and I'll come back to eat next time." After saying that, Ye Fang got in the car and left the breakfast stall.

The old man looked at the direction in which the commercial vehicle was leaving and murmured, "I think they are rich people."
