Rebirth: 1977

After unpacking the four boxes and checking them, Ye Tianshui looked at the pen and paper he had prepared for recording, not interested in writing a single word.

Seeing that it was already dinner time, he took a cursory look at the other boxes one by one. Seeing that they were sealed tightly, he suddenly lost interest in opening the boxes and checking them.

What treasures does he have in those boxes? I have lost the idea of ​​checking it out

No matter how precious they are, they are just dead objects, and they won’t run away on their own anyway.

Just leave it like this. Anyway, it has been stored in the Ding family's cellar for so long. They must have been careful when packing it for storage.

The cellar he dug is much more modern than the one in the Ding family.

Breaking will not destroy the contents.

Ye Tianshui walked up the stairs, turned off the lights, and walked out of the cellar in low spirits.

Seeing Lin Hao and Chen Jun standing responsibly at the door, he immediately ordered them:

"Lock the entrance to the cellar. You won't go in again during this period."

Lin Hao and Chen Jun looked at each other and asked doubtfully:

"Director, do you know that the director of the department called you?

Are we going to Shanghai to find that overseas Chinese from country Y named Shen Zuping? "

Ye Tianshui looked at Lin Hao in confusion and asked seriously:

"Did the director of the department call me? The director of the Overseas Chinese Department of Y nationality named Shen Zuping said that he went to Shanghai?

When did this happen? "

In Ye Tianshui's office on Hong Kong Island, he found out the information of several people and was suspicious of them. He remembered their names very clearly.

Shen Zuping's ancestral home is Ningbo, and he is also one of the group of overseas Chinese who passed the political review and entered the mainland.

He is also one of the few people that Ye Tianshui pays special attention to.

Chen Jun looked at Lin Hao and complained:

"What am I saying? The director of the department obviously just called us, but we received it. How could the director know?"

"What's going on? What did the director of the department say?"

Ye Tianshui was quite concerned about this matter, and for the time being, he put aside the negative emotions that he had inexplicably had in the cellar just now.

"The director didn't say much, he just mentioned the person's name, and then asked us to tell you that this person went to the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

He said you will understand, Director. Do you really understand what he means? . "

Chen Jun explained.

Of course Ye Tianshui understood, Sikongkong must have sent someone to follow him to the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

"Did he say where Shen Zuping settled?"

To say that his ancestral home is Ningbo, it is normal to first go to Shanghai and take a look around.

What's abnormal is that these people are all closely related to Ding Dafu.

It was also the reason that caught Ye Tianshui's attention.

Shen Zuping's situation is similar to Zhang Wanchun's. He is one of the people whose grandfather traveled across the ocean to seek a living.

Shen Zuping is the third generation born in country Y. His living habits and cultural concepts have long been Europeanized.

He still looks Asian, without the ancestry and mixed-race appearance of foreigners.

Being able to understand all Mandarin and even speak everyday Chinese shows that these overseas Chinese still remember their roots and no one forgets their ancestors.

Pretty good.

After Ye Tianshui was reborn, he really had no chance to visit Shanghai, which was not far away.

There is no 'Oriental Pearl Tower' in Shanghai now, and the Bund is still very desolate.

The only thing that is eye-catching is that the Bund in this era has a very peculiar landscape, and there are many young people.

Almost always one-on-one.

It's sad to tell you the reason.

Many families in Shanghai live together in rooms of about 20 square meters, or even only more than ten square meters.

There are often several generations of people living there, perhaps as many as a dozen people.

The most embarrassing thing is that in a small room, there are several brothers who have reached the age of marriage, or brothers who are already married.

Like the bunk beds in the dormitory in the unit, several young couples and their parents all live together.

What blocks the view is a curtain in front of the bed.

Helpless young lovers and young couples have no other place to fall in love or be intimate. The only option is the Bund of the Huangpu River.

Crowds of people, heads leaning against heads, cheeks against cheeks, jostling each other, were once a scene on the Bund of the Huangpu River.

Ye Tianshui's heart is not greedy. He first chose Yangcheng and Pengcheng for investment because there were no policies in place elsewhere.

In Beijing, He Jie happened to need to launch a commercial street experiment. He only made some investments and then stopped.

Next, the Shanghai stock market was the city that Ye Tianshui had to invest in, but he never took action before the opportunity came.

Ye Tianshui likes to go with the flow and let nature take its course.

Now, this opportunity to go to the Shanghai stock market to familiarize yourself with the market is coming to your door.

"Chen Jun, Lin Hao, get ready, let's go to Shanghai for a trip."

It was already early August when Ye Tianshui made this determination.

Does Shen Zuping have any other purpose in going to the Shanghai Stock Exchange? Ye Tianshui decided to take a trip to Shanghai.

Tracking Shen Zuping was one purpose, and seeing if there were any investment opportunities in the Shanghai stock market was what Ye Tianshui wanted to do.

"Xiao Shui, why are you suddenly going to Shanghai? When will you be coming home?"

Zi Lan asked with concern.

Ye Tianshui told her apologetically:

“I’m not sure when I’ll be back at the moment, but I’ll rush back as soon as I finish my work.

I'll definitely be home before school starts. "

Ye Tianshui usually doesn't go to class, and his teachers and classmates are used to it.

But at the beginning of each semester, he would pick up new textbooks.

The three people made simple preparations and set off. On August 5th, they arrived in Shanghai.

The place where Shen Zuping settled was Jing'an District. He stayed in a relatively luxurious hotel of this era.

His identity will surely alarm the local government leaders and warmly entertain him.

Near the hotel, there was a clean small hotel, and Ye Tianshui and three people stayed in it.

Lin Hao and Chen Jun took turns monitoring and tracking Shen Zuping, but found nothing in two days.

People from the government were always around him, participating in activities to entertain him, and visiting some factories, schools and shopping malls.

"Director, when he was alone, he wandered around various shopping malls, and I didn't see him buying anything."

"Director, when he is alone, he wanders around the road and goes to several small restaurants to eat various snacks.

However, he didn't seem to like it very much and took two bites before throwing it away. "

Ye Tianshui listened to their report without comment.

I thought to myself: Everything about this person is normal right now.

As long as he doesn't go to Pingcheng to meet Zhang Wanchun and doesn't help Ding Dafu covet the wealth there, I won't care about him returning to the capital.

In the past two days, Ye Tianshui was not idle. He went to the Jing'an District Government and asked if anyone wanted to sell a house in their area.

"Sell the house?"

A small leader from the district government looked at Ye Tianshui strangely:

"You probably don't know, right? What we lack most in Shanghai is houses.

Is there anyone who has a spare house for sale? "

Ye Tianshui was stunned speechless.

He understood that leaders at this level, especially leaders in other areas that were not specifically responsible for the Real Estate Bureau and the Land Bureau, might not really understand such issues.

When you ask them about things they don’t know, you have to save face for yourself and won’t tell you: I don’t know these things.

Ye Tianshui understood that he was in the wrong place.

This is a densely populated area in Shanghai, and houses that meet Ye Tianshui's conditions will not appear here.

“If we don’t find any special circumstances, we don’t need to keep an eye on him.

Let's find a hotel with better conditions near Nanjing Road.

This crappy place is really annoying and the service attitude is not good at all. "

The reason why Ye Tianshui gave up following Shen Zuping was because he figured out one thing.

In this era, any overseas Chinese who comes will alert the local government.

His general whereabouts can be roughly grasped.

Since I finally made it to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, I had to do something for myself.

There has been no progress at all in the past two days.

Just as they were preparing to leave the small hotel the next day, something appalling happened.

This little-known little hotel suddenly became famous.

They were also informed that they were temporarily prohibited from leaving. It turned out that a murder occurred in this hotel last night!

A young buyer named Li was found dead on the bed in the room where he lived by a hotel attendant in the morning.
