rebirth of evil

Meiyan is a small town on the southwestern coast. It governs more than [-] small villages, large and small, but the population is not large. The combined population of men, women and children is still around [-].It is the southernmost town in the Southwest, and the folk customs are very simple. There is still a tradition of "going to the market": every second and seventh day, people in each village carry seafood and dry goods to Meiyan. In the past few days of the month, the goods will be shipped over, and they will leave on the same day when they are sold out. By the way, they will take away the seafood and dry goods here.

When Huo Jin arrived at Meiyan, it was the first day of August. There was no market day, and the whole Meiyan was deserted, with almost no one in sight.This time he didn't bring anyone with him, only a big black that was almost as big as a human - big black is very fierce in front of outsiders, it looks at everyone who approaches Huo Jin vigilantly, it looks like a very protective Lord's loyal dog.

As the third generation of the Huo family, it's unbelievable for Huo Jin to be placed in a place like Meiyan—especially when his father, Huo Jihai, has just been transferred to the capital.

However, those with better brains may understand that this has something to do with the fact that "the Northeast began to supply desalinated seawater in early October": the Southwest is an area with a high incidence of drought, let alone arable land, and even the pasture area decreases almost every year. .This is undoubtedly fatal to the Southwest, which relies on agriculture and animal husbandry for survival.

So the northeast needs water, the northwest needs water, and the southwest needs water more.

Lin Guangyi retired this year and nominated Mo Jiandong to be the successor of Southwest District Chief. Mo Jiandong was also brought to the National Convention in July.Lin Guangyi and Mo Jiandong visited Huo's house and the secretary's house several times, hoping to obtain seawater desalination technology for the Southwest.

Huo Jin went to the southwest at this time to bring seawater desalination technology.Although the conflict between the Huo Mo family has not been put on the table, everyone in the capital circle is well aware of it, so it is easy to understand that Huo Jin was not given a position where he can truly display his abilities: Originally, this technology should be kept strictly confidential and It's already very difficult to actually implement it, so what's the use of distracting Huo Jin on this kind of matter?It is best to arrange a lighter position for Huo Jin.

Further south of Meiyan is the Sanhua Strait connecting the South China Sea.There are nearly a hundred islands scattered in the Sanhua Strait, among which the three largest islands are distributed like horns. When viewed from the air, they all look like peach blossoms, except that one is in bud, one is half-opened, and one is half-opened. The flowers have spit out the pistils, so the Sanhua Strait got its name.

Because there are too many hidden reefs around and the island is a piece of bare rock, there are no residents on the Sanhua Islands, and only a small number of troops from the southwest are still stationed on it.

This is the most suitable place to be the "starfish" experimental base, but the living conditions of the research team will be a little more difficult at the beginning.

The construction tasks this time are still drawn from the troops under the jurisdiction of the five military regions, and they are responsible for the construction of each "side pipe". Starfish" composition.At the same time, many interference measures have been taken in advance to prevent other countries' satellites from secretly taking pictures.

It can be said that the confidentiality measures of the "Starfish Project" are extremely strict, and even a shrewd thief cannot obtain its information from this heavy defense.

According to the news from overseas, the foreign media seems to be ready to move under the hint of some people, and wants to use the power of public opinion to "persuade" Hua Guo to come up with seawater desalination technology.

dream!

Huo Jin sneered.Why don't they "share" those technologies that are ahead of Huaguo?Why don't you see them bring advanced weapons to Huaguo?

It is enough to do the meat bun to beat the dog once, and if you continue to "share" the lessons of hybrid rice, isn't that stupid?

Huo Jin hadn't been alone for a long time, and Su Guangnan, the mayor of Meiyan Town, brought people over to find him.It seems that he has also inquired about Huo Jin's background. Su Guangnan's voice with a Southwest dialect sounded very enthusiastic: "Huo Shao, we have prepared a feast of food and wine for you! This place is no better than the capital and Luoxing. There is no good food here. Some fresh seafood."

Huo Jin did not refuse, and followed them to the banquet.

There is no decent restaurant in the small town of Meiyan. Even the mayor chose a small restaurant with a relatively large space, vacated all the small tables and chairs and set up a big round table.

However, the dishes are indeed very rich. They are all seafood that are rarely eaten in inland areas. There are plump fish, shrimp, shellfish, steamed, stewed, fried and broiled. There are also soups and porridges. They are also prepared. Although they don't look very good, they still smell pretty good.

Su Guangnan enthusiastically poured wine for Huo Jin, while introducing Huo Jin to the special dishes along the southwestern coast.

This time Huo Jin was assigned to be the mayor of the southernmost area of ​​Meiyan, but who can really regard the Huo family prince as a small town head?I can't wait to confess him!

In fact, Su Guangnan has already received the news that Mo Fan, the youngest son of the newly appointed Southwest District Chief, will come here to be the "intern village head". Coincidentally, the village where this young master "interns" is also under the jurisdiction of the Huo family prince. that generation.

Su Guangnan is a worry.

The southwest is now the Mo family's world, at most the Zhang family and the Lin family can be counted, but they are all united!I heard that the Mo family and the Huo family were not at odds. The second young master of the Mo family didn't want to stay in Luoxing's place, and rushed to such a small place as Meiyan. Can't make it through?

The two young and old are going to fight, what can these little people do?It doesn't seem to work either way.

Su Guangnan could only secretly pray that future open and secret fights would not happen under his nose, as long as he coaxed them to go to Nanxiang, he could pretend he couldn't see the next thing.

Su Guangnan was very fortunate that the arrival dates of the two elders and youngsters in Meiyan did not overlap.Just thinking about that scene made his scalp tingle, wouldn't he be scared out of his nerve if it happened?

Wiping off the sweat in his heart, Su Guangnan introduced the situation of Nanxiang to Huo Jin without words.

Nanxiang is already the closest place to Sanhua Strait in Meiyan. Several villages are directly on the sea, and most of the villagers make a living by fishing.There are continuous cliffs on the left and right of Nanxiang, and there are dangerous reefs underneath. It is known as the "Devil's Coast". Therefore, Meiyan is a little far away from the southwest harbor, giving people a feeling of isolation.

Although this place is not inhabited by ethnic minorities, there are very few officials sent down here - because it is too poor.

Huo Jin didn't think the living conditions in Meiyan Town were very bad. At least the houses were neatly built. It is said that when Su Guangnan took office a few years ago, he went outside to ask for a house design with economical construction cost, heat insulation and cold protection. The plan was mobilized from door to door and built.The current Meiyan is a row of blue-tiled pointed roofs at a glance, and the walls are uniformly painted in a yellowish color. Each house is not built high, but it looks comfortable.

Small places are better than small places, at least Meiyan is very satisfying.

Huo Jin couldn't even conceive the idea of ​​developing this place, hoping that this simple place with pioneering spirit can keep its advantages.

Huo Jin had discussed with Mo Fan about choosing Meiyan as the place to settle for the next few years.That guy Mo Fan had sneaked here long ago in order to find good ingredients. He still sends people over regularly to collect seafood, but he couldn’t bear to spoil the goodness of this place so that no one would spread the word about this place.

As soon as Mo Fan heard the news of the successful development of Jinlu Starfish, he first thought of Meiyan, a good place he had hidden.

No matter how developed the Mo family is, what Mo Fan pursues is still the simplest and most peaceful life, and everything he does is to retain the happiness he wants.

So he tried his best to persuade Huo Jin to come to Meiyan Town.

Hearing that Mo Fan included himself in his future, Huo Jin was naturally happy.

Meiyan is indeed a wonderful place. Although it is not a seaport, there are several sea routes leading to the Sanhua Islands. It is also very convenient for them to go to the "base" from here. Moreover, this small isolated place has few eyes, so even if it is stared at It is also easy to get rid of after getting on, and it is a very suitable place for them in every respect.

Huo Jin chatted with Su Guangnan and other local bosses very kindly, without any pretensions of a prince.

Su Guangnan was secretly surprised.

Su Guangnan is not entirely a countryman. He also went out to study in a university and has seen a lot of things. He is also very concerned about the general situation in the country.

After the National Congress in July, there were two biggest job transfers. One was that Huo Jihai entered the capital, and Liang Lixin was appointed as the head of the South Central District; the other was that Lin Guangyi, the head of the Southwest District, retired and Mo Jiandong took over.Some of the Huomo families who are not in the right position are considered to be the winners in July, and the Huo family took the lead. The family is simply in full swing, and its rise is unstoppable.

So the gentleness shown by Huo Jin surprised Su Guangnan.

But soon, he had a feeling of "it should be".If Huo Jin was an arrogant, domineering and bullying second-generation ancestor, the Huo family would have been dragged down by him, how could there be such a grand occasion?This is the bearing a family should have!

In contrast, the bad reputation of the son raised by the Mo family, a new family, just shows that the Mo family lacks the background of the Huo family.

That's how Su Guangnan made his conclusion on the upcoming second young master of the Mo family - of course, the more he thought about it, the more shocked he would be when he saw Mo Fan.

After eating and drinking for a while, Huo Jin told Su Guangnan that he was going to Nanxiang by himself.Su Guangnan repeatedly asked to go with him to no avail, so he could only watch Huo Jin leave the town center with the car in which his family Dahei got in.

Since Mo Fan likes Meiyan Town so much, why didn't he prepare in advance?He had dealt with Su Guangnan when he was "planning to build a house" in Su Guangnan, and used Liu Heng's name to get land in Nanxiang to build a few houses, which were reserved for himself.After hearing the news that Huo Jin could really come to Meiyan, Mo Fan gave Huo Jin the key to one of the houses.

Looking at the prairie scenery speeding outside the car window, Huo Jin smiled slightly.

The days of staying in Nanxiang with Mo Fan...he was already looking forward to it.
