Chapter 741 Homecoming
As we all know, there is no decent manufacturing industry in Hong Kong. As the hometown gradually opens up the market, the few manufacturing industries in Hong Kong have all moved to Shenzhen. Now a large automobile manufacturing company has suddenly appeared, which immediately caused a huge sensation in Hong Kong, even more so than the low-key and pragmatic Ningyuan Machinery Manufacturing Factory. Then, Ningyuan Automobile unexpectedly became the favorite of Hong Kong residents. Coupled with Ningyuan Automobile's very avant-garde appearance design and high quality, its sales in Hong Kong exceeded 10,000 cars in one month.

"Suning, the monthly sales of Ningyuan Automobile for the first month are out. The sales in this city plus Europe and the United States total 30,600 vehicles." AI robot Chen Jinhua looked at Suning and introduced the sales of Ningyuan Automobile.

"Well, the sales volume is really good, far exceeding our expectations." Suning nodded with great satisfaction and relief.

"Suning, should we increase production now?"

"No need! Anyway, what we need now is to proceed steadily and steadily, and expanding the reputation of our Ningyuan Automobile is the most important thing. In addition, the Ningyuan Electric Appliance project must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. As long as our Ningyuan has a reputation in the early stage, returning to the mainland to build a new factory in a few years will be our period of rapid development."

"Yes."

When Suning got home from get off work, Chen Jianghe immediately walked up to him hesitantly and said, "Brother, I heard that the market in my hometown has been liberalized."

"Of course! Jianghe, you have also started to care about national affairs?" Su Ning looked at the male protagonist Chen Jianghe in front of him with amusement, knowing that Chen Jianghe wanted to go back to his hometown to visit his relatives.

"Brother, I miss my relatives back home. Can we go back?" Sure enough, Chen Jianghe immediately looked at Su Ning with a firm expression and said.

"Jiang He, if you and Yu Zhu can both get into college, I can consider taking you back."

"really?"

"Haha, of course it's true!"

Thinking about Chen Jianghe in the original drama, he wandered outside for more than ten years, and then returned to Yiwu in the early 1980s. He also met the noble man in his life, Qiu Yingjie, and then started his career with the help of Qiu Yingjie. I didn’t expect that this time Suning and Chen Jianghe would also return to the mainland at the same time period.

Time flies, and soon it is already 1981. In the past two years, Ningyuan Group has made great achievements in the automotive and home appliance industries. As for the machinery manufacturing industry, it has long dominated the market. However, business tycoons such as Li Chaoren and Baochuanwang are jealous of it. They really didn't expect that Ningyuan Group would be so good at playing.

"Zhen Ting, please call Suning for me. I want to invite him out for tea." Old Huo suddenly looked at his eldest son and gave the order.

"Father, do you want to learn about Ningyuan Group's latest developments through Suning?" Huo Zhenting immediately guessed his father's intention.

"Yes! Recently I discovered that Ningyuan Group has actually relied on the Harbor Terminal Company and has now completed the layout of Ningyuan supermarkets. They have opened warehousing and retail supermarkets in many major European and American cities."

"Oh? I didn't expect Ningyuan Group to be so ambitious in the retail industry?"

"Zhen Ting, when Ningyuan Group invited us to join the Harbor Terminal Company, I felt very strange. It turns out that Ningyuan Group's real goal is the retail industry. The reason they shared profits with us was just to quickly expand retail outlets."

"Father, Suning is very tight-lipped. He won't reveal any information about Ningyuan Group."

"Zhen Ting, do you think that if we recruit Suning to our company, will Suning have to give up some things?" Mr. Huo thought of a condition disapprovingly, believing that Suning could not resist his recruitment.

"Huh? Father, I don't agree with your idea. Suning is still highly respected in Ningyuan Group. He has always been in charge of Ningyuan's manufacturing industry, so Suning may not really look down on our company." Huo Zhenting shook his head with some pessimism.

"Oh! Yes! It's really a pity."

In 1981, Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu were admitted to their ideal universities at the same time, which made Suning feel extremely surprised. His years of hard work finally paid off. Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu also completely changed their destiny, and their future prospects will definitely reach a new high.

Then Suning fulfilled his promise and took Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu back to his hometown. After all, he hadn't seen the folks in Chenjia Village for more than ten years, and Chen Jianghe was indeed homesick for so many years.

"Jianghe, what are you looking for?" Looking at Chen Jianghe who was rummaging around in the room, Su Ning looked at his brother in confusion and asked.

"Brother, where are the clothes we wore when we came to Hong Kong?" Chen Jianghe looked up at Su Ning in confusion and asked.

"Huh? What are you looking for that thing for?"

"Brother, I want to dress as simply as possible to see the reactions of my relatives in Chenjia Village."

After hearing Chen Jianghe's plan, Su Ning looked a bit amused and said to Chen Jianghe in a bad mood, "The clothes have been thrown away a long time ago. If you really want to pretend to be poor, you can only buy them when you return to your hometown."

"Okay! This is the only way now."

This time, the three brothers and sisters who went back to their hometown to visit relatives chose to take a plane. After all, flights from Hong Kong Island to Shanghai have been opened. As soon as Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu stepped on the plane back to their hometown, they all sat there with different expressions and felt uneasy.

Su Ning knew that Chen Jianghe had indeed missed his hometown for the past ten years, and Luo Yuzhu, who had remained silent, had a more complicated feeling. "Yuzhu, this time when we return to our hometown, do you want to go see your father?"

"No!" Hearing Suning suddenly mention that "bad dad", Luo Yuzhu couldn't help but breathe quickly, and still felt a little upset.

"Hey! Yuzhu, sometimes forgiving others is also to free yourself."

"Brother, I really can't forgive him. From now on, I will just pretend that he doesn't exist as my father."

"Yuzhu, you've lived in Hong Kong for such a long time. You should be well aware of the nature and power of the media. I'm worried that this incident will become your weakness."

"Brother, it will only become my weakness if I care about it. If I don't hide it at all, it will just be a joke." Luo Yuzhu looked at Su Ning disapprovingly and said.

"Alright! You can make your own decisions about your own affairs, but your father is really a weirdo."

"Brother, you also know about my father?" Luo Yuzhu turned to look at Su Ning in surprise and asked.

"Yes! In the past few years, I asked someone to go back to the mainland to conduct a special investigation. He and your stepmother gave birth to a son, but your father is still addicted to gambling. He is a complete and experienced gambler."

"Brother, this is why I don't forgive him. Never have anything to do with a gambler."

In the original drama, Luo Yuzhu was terribly harmed by this "scumbag father". First, she was sold to a human trafficker by the "scumbag father", and later the trafficker stole the money Luo Yuzhu exchanged for food stamps. This also led to the sadness and subsequent tragedy of Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe, so Su Ning didn't want Luo Yuzhu to have too many entanglements with the other party.

After the plane landed at Shanghai's Hongqiao Airport, the three siblings got off the plane and took a taxi to the city, because Chen Jianghe was still thinking about pretending to be poor in front of his fellow villagers. He really wanted to know whether his relatives in Chenjia Village cared about this, but in the end Suning did not let him buy any old clothes.

Regardless of whether Chen Jianghe really wanted to pretend to be poor, he still bought a lot of gifts in Shanghai. Then the three brothers and sisters took a train to Jinhua. When they returned to the familiar yet unfamiliar Chenjia Village, looking at the old village that had hardly changed around them, Suning and Chen Jianghe became more responsible.

"Diaomao, Jimao, are you two brothers not starving to death?" At this time, a voice mixed with surprise and complexity sounded.

Su Ning and Chen Jianghe turned to look in the direction of the voice and found that it was the funny Chen Jintu. Su Ning immediately said to him in a bad mood, "Uncle Jintu, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and your mouth still stinks."

"Uh" Chen Jintu was immediately speechless after hearing Suning's words.

"Uncle Jintu, my brother's name is Suning, and I take Uncle Jinshui's surname and am called Chen Jianghe. Don't call us Diaomao and Jimao anymore." At this time, Chen Jianghe on the side hurriedly explained to Chen Jintu with a smile.

"Suning? Chen Jianghe?" Chen Jintu immediately widened his eyes in surprise.

"Uncle Jintu, let's go home first." Chen Jianghe watched Su Ning and Luo Yuzhu walking forward, and immediately said something casually to Chen Jintu, and then quickly chased in the direction of Su Ning.

Chen Jintu watched the three brothers and sisters heading towards Chen Jinshui's house, and stood there in a daze. At this time, other villagers who heard the noise ran out to watch the excitement. They all greeted the two brothers with surprise, and Chen Jianghe also enjoyed repeating his and his brother's names.

"Diao Mao, Ji Mao, you are back?" Chen Jinshui also came out with his wife and daughter Qiaogu, and looked at Su Ning and Chen Jianghe in front of him with surprise.

"Uncle Jinshui, we are back."

"Okay! Okay! Come on in!" Chen Jinshui smiled pleased and invited the three of them home. Seeing Luo Yuzhu following behind Su Ning and Chen Jianghe, he couldn't help but look at Su Ning with some confusion and asked, "Who is this girl?"

"Uncle Jinshui, her name is Luo Yuzhu. She's the sister Jiang He and I recognized when we were wandering around."

"Damn it, tell me honestly, have you known your biological parents for a long time?" Chen Jinshui suddenly looked at Su Ning with a complicated expression and asked.

"Huh? About the same!" Su Ning replied vaguely, then explained to Chen Jinshui, "Uncle Jinshui, my name is Su Ning now. My brother still wants to take your last name, Chen, so he's named Chen Jianghe now."

"Suning? Chen Jianghe? So you've been with your biological parents for over a decade?"

"No! My brother and I have been wandering around, going to many places and seeing many things."

"Well, no wonder it feels like your temperament has changed." Only then did Chen Jinshui smile again. He had been worried that Suning and Chen Jianghe would break off relations with him.

This time, Suning and Chen Jianghe specially brought back a 32-inch Ningyuan CRT color TV, which was then placed in the village committee as public property by Chen Jinshui. After Chen Jianghe connected the antenna and the picture appeared on the TV screen, the villagers of Chenjia Village immediately became excited.

"Wow! This TV is so big! It's almost as big as the movie screen."

"Yeah! It seems Diaomao and Jimao have made a name for themselves out there."

"Stop calling me by my nickname! I'm now called Suning and Chen Jianghe."

Hearing the neighbors' chatter and the impressive television screen before him, Chen Jinshui's heart was filled with joy. "Suning, this big color TV must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"Uncle Jinshui, we have almost spent all our savings in the past few years to buy this TV." Before Suning could answer Chen Jinshui, Chen Jianghe on the side immediately started to complain.

"." Seeing his younger brother so keen on pretending to be poor, Suning rubbed his head with a headache, but in Chen Jinshui's eyes, he believed what Chen Jianghe said.

"Suning, Jianghe, Chenjia Village will always be your brothers' home. Don't try to be so pretentious in the future." Chen Jinshui said to Suning and Chen Jianghe with a helpless look.

"Okay! Uncle Jinshui, we'll listen to you." Chen Jianghe didn't care about his brother's playful expression at all. Instead, he pretended to be well-behaved and sensible and looked at Chen Jinshui and replied.

"Brother Ning, Jianghe, I heard that Ningyuan Electric Appliances is a Hong Kong brand and is an imported product that cannot be bought in the mainland. How did you two brothers buy it?" At this time, Chen Daguang suddenly approached Su Ning and Chen Jianghe, and looked at them with a puzzled look and asked.

"Daguang, you are amazing! You know so much?" Suning looked at the grown-up Chen Daguang with a teasing look on his face, but Suning still felt that he deserved a beating.

"That's right! My father often takes me to Hangzhou and Shanghai, and I know all the imported goods." Chen Daguang boasted with a smug look on his face.

"Haha, we asked a friend to buy it for us, so we don't know the details."

"Brother Ning, you guys are amazing! You even know friends in smuggling."

"Smuggling? What smuggling?"

"Brother Ning, Jiang He, isn't this obvious? The domestic market doesn't allow the sale of imported televisions, so this large color TV of yours must have been smuggled in."

"No! Our friend is an agent for imported electrical appliances. All the appliances he sells are sold through legitimate channels."

"Really?"

"Chen Daguang, do you think we need to hide it from you?"
