Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 Bai Yuhong 【 1 】

Bai Yuhong, male. Chinese mixed race, Chinese nationality. Age 18. Born September 7, 1997. His parents died, he inherited $5.7 million, 400 hectares of ranch, in the beautiful state of Corsarona. Well, from that point of view, I'm quite satisfied. After all, being an orphan leaves out a lot of things. Then there is the matter of the inheritance. Inheritance taxes are high in beautiful countries. And the IRS is not to be messed with. But it doesn't matter. Money, that's what I need. And this villa is not bad, but a little small, 400 hectares... It's a small farm. The next step is to pay taxes, buy land, and expand the farm. I first bought several farms in the immediate vicinity and raised enough to cover 1,000 hectares, or 15,000 acres. Not too big, but not too big. However, because Corsalona is close to the coastline and borders the inland on the one side, the terrain is flat and there are few hills and mountains, so often the rainstorm typhoon can flood people, coupled with the old drainage system, every rainstorm will flood the entire street, maybe it will also pour into the house, occasionally a hail and heavy snow, but also the whole state power outage, it is really a "good" place. I've been here a month and I don't want to be here anymore. This month, I not only spent money to repair the manor and replace the old farm machinery, but also replaced everything that could be replaced with Chinese products. It even paid to repair the drainage system of the entire estate and nearby towns. You could say I spent more money than he inherited. But that's okay. At least the Department of Revenue in Corsarona loves me. I love filing taxes. To this end, I specially hired a lawyer to remind me to avoid tax evasion, of course, can avoid tax, he is better at. This lovely, money-sucking lawyer, under the control of the law, has become my dearest assistant. So I had no problem buying land and consolidating the farm, even raising a bunch of unemployed farmers and cowboys, and building a new dock, buying some fishing boats, and setting up a fishing farm. Directly revitalizing the flagging local economy. Of course, I did a few other things, like changing the geography a little bit, changing the state map, and some people's memories of the geography. Near the farm, some mountains were built, for no other reason than to keep out the wind and rain. With the help of the Krypton system, I left a few puppets as agents to manage the ranch and the property while I sat back and enjoyed the benefits. After all that, and a fond farewell to my lovely lawyer Jack, I was on my way home. The return was smooth, after all, Bai Yuhong is indeed a Chinese citizen, but only in the beautiful country of permanent residence. And the place I want to go is Bai Yuhong's hometown, Qihe City, Xianhe County, Heming village. This place is Bai Yuhong's biological father, Bai Chengsi's hometown. Bai Chengsi's will made it very clear that he wanted to return to his roots. Although he had to flee overseas for some reasons in the early years and married a foreign daughter-in-law, he was bent on China, and even his son did not change his nationality after he was born. I'm not very interested in things from the older generation. What I'm interested in is that back home, you can eat takeout! Yeah, that's how useless I am. ... December 6, 2015. I'm back home. After getting off the plane, getting on the high-speed train, changing cars, tossing for two days and two nights, I finally came to Heming village on the third day. The scenery here is very good, just outside the village is the highway, and on both sides of the highway are mountains, which is a natural barrier. It feels like a road has been dug between two mountains for traffic. Green is abundant. I like it here. None of the hustle and bustle of a big city. No square dancing for the ladies downstairs. It's great. After arriving here, I just knew that the white family is still a big family here. It's kind of like living under the same roof. Heming village is not large, the environment is similar to the mountains surrounded by a road through and out, one side into the mountain, one side connected to the village, clearly defined, the road side is a paddy pond, the other side is well-organized houses. The head of the village told me that the village was newly built thirty years ago and was reintegrated by four small villages nearby. So the village has four major surnames, but with 30 years of intermarriage, so the surname has gradually become more complicated. The white family name is definitely the big family name of Heming village, because the permanent population of Heming village is only one hundred and twenty-three households, plus the young and young people are mostly migrant workers, and most of them are elderly, and now the total number of old and young people in the village is only more than 90 people, most of them are elderly. Because of Heming's remote location, half an hour's drive from the nearest county, Xianhe, most children are taken away by their parents once they are old enough to go to school. Most of the children in the village are only three or four years old. In Heming Village, the Bai family is the big family name, but there are other family names. Such as the Zhou family, such as the Zhao family, such as the Huang family. Heming Village was originally built with five ancestral halls, Bai, Zhou, Zhao, Huang and Chen. Only later, almost all of Chen's family entered the county, and the ancestral hall was abandoned, and now there are only four ancestral halls left in the village. In the village, families both marry each other and stick together, and the family boundaries between each other are no longer very clear. Are they in-law to each other? The white family I'm looking for is the biggest family in the village. But is it really big? The old village chief pulled me and explained to me in detail, lest I should not understand the situation. The white family has been separated since my grandfather's generation. It's a mixed call. There are seven brothers in Grandpa's generation, the eldest and the third are brothers, and the others are Cousins to each other. Bai Guoqiang, Bai Guosheng [eight years old difference, brother]. Bai Changsheng, Bai Longen, Bai Jianjun, Bai Zhengrong, Bai Guoliang. My cheap father Bai Chengsi is the fourth, the younger son of Bai Jianjun. Bai Jianjun has three sons and one daughter. The eldest son died young and drowned in a river at the age of eight. A second son and a younger daughter also died at the age of 20. The last youngest son, for some reason, fled the country. Therefore, I, Bai Yuhong, is the only child of Bai Jianjun. At present, I can be regarded as relatives in the village, that is, Bai Guoqiang and Bai Guosheng two families. Bai Guoqiang, in terms of seniority, I want to call him Grandpa. He has four sons. The eldest son and the second son are twins. The eldest son Bai Keming had a son, called Bai Yujing, but their family moved to the county town 20 years ago, although they have a house in the village, they do not live in the village. The second son, Bakpin, had a quarrel with his grandfather and ran away from home. Third son Bai Keqin lost the child 18 years ago, and has been looking for the child, and now the husband and wife have died for ten years, and the child has not been found. Four son, Bai Kejing, also has a son, named Bai Yu City, still in the city to study university, Bai Kejing was also in the city to do business, but last year the 75-year-old old man fell, did not get up again, so to go, Bai Kejing couple have to come back to do the funeral, plus the son has almost graduated, so simply back to the village, now at home. This is the big Grandpa one pulse situation. And three grandpa that pulse, there are only two people. One is the third grandfather, and the other is his grandson. It is also sad to say. Three grandpa originally lived in the old house on the mountain, not very far, walk to the village, it is about ten minutes away, is on the other side of the village, to cross the whole field, in Heshan mountainside to live, here is three grandpa after marriage to build the house, lived for decades, sent away the daughter-in-law and three sons, and now finally do not live. He had a total of three sons, and then after the youngest son was born, his wife died, and he thought he had three children, and did not marry again. Who knows, the second year after the death of the daughter-in-law, the eldest son died of illness. Three years later, the second son also fell down from the mountain and died. One son left, raised easily, got married, had children, thought there would be no more accidents. As a result, who knows that even grandchildren have, his only son, did not know that there sprang out of the silver snake bite, found people are hard. If Pops were a little weak, he'd go with it. Now, his daughter-in-law has also remarried, and the old man has moved down from the mountain with his little grandson to live in the village. Three grandpa turned seventy years old, his only grandson this year is also 22, older than Bai Yuhong. Bai Yuhong, after all, had just turned 18. The other several grandparents were either taken to the city by their son, or moved out of the village earlier in the year, in the county seat, or not in the village. Because I just returned to China, the old village head told me about the relationship in the family, and then took me to find Bai Kejing, also my fourth uncle. Although there is not much blood relationship with me, in the name of it is just five. But he's the only one in the village who can take me in. After all, I came back in a hurry, there was really no place to stay for a time, although the guest house has a... But the old village chief didn't think it was a good place for me to live. And the third grandpa, although the place is big, but still forget it. After all, third grandpa is better than my side. At least three grandpa there in addition to a single child, he is still in. On my side, there's not even four grandfathers left except me. The fourth grandfather died in the fifth year after Bai Chengsi went abroad. Together, you can't even make a mahjong. So, the old village chief took me to Uncle Bai's side and introduced Uncle Bai to me. Bai Si uncle only 46 years old this year, he is very tall, one meter eight, the whole body tendon meat, not strong, but very strong, a look at the body is very good. His wife, Zhao Shuanghua, who is 44, still has a charm and can still be seen as a beauty in her youth. See Bai Yuhong, two people are a leng, and then is a smile. Without it, Bai Yuhong grew too good, or relatives, how can two people not be happy. Young people are rarely seen in the countryside these days. Just heard Bai Yuhong is to send Bai Chengsi urn, white four uncle sighed, and then will take it down, and let Bai Yuhong temporarily live in their home. Their family is a new three-story building, the room is large and many, in the countryside, to build a house is to give you an mu of land, to build their own. Uncle Bai's new house was built less than a year ago. Not much else, but more empty rooms. I still like this couple. Especially after dinner, I like it even more.
