Chapter 271 Overview
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is June 1965.
Xu Damao moved back to the courtyard house with his wife and two children three years ago, and Lou's mother also went to Hong Kong escorted by Zhang Long three years ago.
Xu Damao has now been promoted to deputy director of the steel mill, in charge of publicity and concurrently director of the bicycle branch. Yes, with the expansion of production scale, the bicycle workshop has also been upgraded to a bicycle factory. The bicycle factory is a department-level unit, but it is still a subsidiary of the steel mill, except that there is an extra wall between it and the steel mill.
Now let’s talk about major events at home and abroad.
Abroad, Xu Damao plundered a large amount of gold and currency from banks in Southeast Asian countries. Although the governments of various countries tried their best to remedy the situation, the news still leaked out, eventually causing a frenzy of cashing out.
Banks in various countries went bankrupt, the credibility of governments was greatly reduced, workers in various countries lost their jobs, prices remained high, and finally in early 1962, a large-scale economic crisis broke out in Southeast Asia and spread to the whole world. The world economy regressed 20 years, and the whole world fell into the Great Depression.
After the economic crisis began, Wang Chao and Ma Han organized a large number of immigrants from Hong Kong to settle in Singapore, and continuously increased the proportion of local Chinese. After several years of unremitting efforts, Singapore finally separated from the Federation of Malaysia in 1965 and achieved independence.
However, the independence of Singapore this time was not just a small amount of territory, but included all of Malaysia's territories in Indochina. This has to be said about the contribution made by Ma Han. He first changed his name to Xu Han, and then spent a huge amount of wealth in the name of the Xu family to buy these territories from Malaysia. Xu Han was therefore elected as the first president of Singapore, and thus began the Xu family's long-term rule over Singapore.
After its independence, Singapore became the largest gathering place for Chinese and overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia. Under the instruction of Xu Damao, it immediately applied to the Republic for the establishment of diplomatic relations. Now the two sides have sent ambassadors to each other and formally established close diplomatic relations.
The underground forces in Hong Kong had long been integrated by Xu Chao. Yes, for the sake of convenience, the four of them changed their surnames to Xu, and recognized Xu Fugui as their godfather, and they were just short of being registered in the same household registration book. Now Xu Chao led the entire underground forces in Hong Kong to rapidly expand to East Asia and Southeast Asia, and he could be called an intercontinental godfather.
Now Xu Chao has also established many companies, covering many fields such as real estate, shipping, clothing, footwear and electronic products. He also established connections with the Governor of Hong Kong, took the lead in obtaining a free wireless television license and established the Hong Kong Broadcasting Corporation.
As for the domestic situation, it can be described as thriving. Just after the three-year difficult period, my country's first atomic bomb was successfully detonated in the northwest, followed by the first hydrogen bomb and the first artificial satellite, which steadily improved my country's international status.
As the domestic market and environment are relatively closed, they are hardly affected by the global economic crisis. Instead, domestic economic construction has made great achievements with the support of various technologies and equipment provided by Xu Damao. Various factories have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and people's living standards have also improved significantly.
That day, Xu Damao had just returned from get off work when he was stopped by Yan Bugui.
"Da Mao, Damao, my son Jiefang sent a letter saying that he and Guangtian are going to be demobilized and come back." Yan Bugui said with great joy. His son had been gone for several years, and now he was finally coming back, how could he not be happy!
"Oh, this is great news. Don't you want to hold a banquet to celebrate?" Xu Damao also said with a smile.
"We should do it, but I have to discuss with Lao Liu first to see if the two families can do it together." Yan Bugui said.
"Don't call him Lao Liu. You have to call him Section Chief Liu so that he will be happy. If he is happy, he might not need your family to pay for it."
"Yes, yes, that's what Lao Liu likes. I'll go discuss it with him after dinner."
"Okay, then I'll go back first. The children are waiting for me to cook." Xu Damao said.
"Go ahead, go ahead. Yu Li is also playing in the backyard with my two little ones."
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw a group of children playing in the backyard. The five-year-olds included Xu Jianfeng, Xu Liwei, Nan Yi's eldest daughter Nan Yuqing, Yan Jiecheng's eldest son Yan Huaili, the three-year-olds included Xu Damao's second daughter Xu Liya, Nan Yi's son Nan Tianyu, and finally there were two little followers, two-year-old Yan Shuli and Liu Haitao.
This Liu Haitao is the child of Liu Guangfu and Qin Jingru. The two of them secretly did that kind of thing before they reached the age. They had no self-control at such a young age, and after doing it so many times, Qin Jingru became pregnant.
Although Liu Haizhong had some opinions about Qin Jingru, who came from the countryside, and was afraid that she would be as unscrupulous and morally corrupt as Qin Huairu, she was already pregnant with his Liu family's child, so he had no choice but to accept this daughter-in-law. Fortunately, in this era, the only strict thing was the nature of the household registration, so Liu Haizhong asked someone to secretly change Liu Guangfu's age, which allowed the two to get married smoothly.
Fortunately, Qin Jingru's performance in the past few years after marriage was also seen by him, and with the grandson in front of him, Liu Haizhong gradually changed his view of Qin Jingru. Now the family is happy and the old couple can have enough of their grandchildren. As for Liu Guangqi, the eldest son who not only emptied his family's assets but also did not come back for several years, he was gradually forgotten by the old couple.
"father!"
This is what my three children called me.
"Godfather!"
This is the name given to the child of Nan Yi and his wife. Not long after Lou Xiao'e and the children moved in, the two sides recognized each other as godparents.
"Uncle Xu!"
This is what the children from the Liu and Yan families call themselves.
A bunch of little kids of different heights rushed towards Xu Damao, shouting different names. When they came nearby, they all raised their little faces and looked at Xu Damao expectantly.
Xu Damao also knew what they meant, so he simply stopped his bicycle and took out a lot of White Rabbit milk candies from the briefcase in the basket and distributed them to the children.
"Two per person, don't eat more. Eating too much will cause worms to grow on your teeth. If you don't listen, you will have no more children in the future!"
"We will be obedient and refuse to eat more," the children said in unison.
Lou Xiao'e, Yu Li, Ding Qiunan and Qin Jingru, who were watching the children not far away, also came over, like a beautiful scenery. Ding Qiunan's father's health has not been good, and Ding's mother needs to be taken care of frequently, so Ding Qiunan applied for unpaid leave and stayed at home to take care of the children.
"Da Mao, you're back."
"Well, are you all hungry? What do you want to eat tonight?"
Before Lou Xiao'e could say anything, her eldest daughter started ordering food. "Dad, I want Kung Pao Chicken!"
"Okay, Dad will make it for you. You just play for a while. I'll leave you guys first." After Xu Damao said this, he pushed the cart back to the door of his house, parked it, and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
