Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2655 Yang Geyong is here

His mother did not entertain them directly. Instead, she made tea and started making a phone call, apparently calling her husband to come home.

This is also different from the north. Among the Kazakhs there, whoever is at home will entertain guests, even if there is only a child at home.

After a while, the man came back with a piece of beef in his hand, and it seemed that he had gone to buy meat.

Villagers don’t have to go to the market to sell meat. When someone slaughters a cow, they just shout and several families will get a share.

Ye Yuze hasn’t had much exposure to the food here, and wonders how it’s different from back home?
The male host was very enthusiastic and was very happy to know that his son had earned a hundred yuan. Ye Yuze could see that he was not happy because of the hundred yuan, but because his son knew how to make money.

Uyghur people like to dry fruits. Relatively speaking, the people here dry the fruits better than Ye Yuze and his team.

The table was filled with raisins, dried apricots, dried peaches, almonds, and paper-shell walnuts.

Xiao Di was drooling at the sight. Women have never been able to resist these things.

In fact, it’s not that she is useless. Even Ye Yuze, who has never been interested in these things, was tempted.

The main thing is that the dried fruits are really appetizing, both in color and taste.

The hostess was busy cooking, a beef stew and a lamb leg pilaf with rice. There were not many dishes, but the quantity was large.

Ye Yuze was eating very happily. Halfway through the meal, Yang Geyong came over with two bottles of wine in his hands.

Ye Yuze was sometimes unsure about the people here, because some of them did not drink alcohol, which was different from the nomadic people.

So, he didn't bring any wine when he came back, but Yang Geyong didn't have so many concerns. Relatively speaking, he had more contact with people here and more friends than Ye Yuze.

Whether you drink alcohol or not, giving alcohol as a gift does not violate the precepts.

Sure enough, the host smiled as soon as he saw the wine, took the sorghum and examined it, then gave a thumbs up:

"Special supply from Junken City, my friend, I'm so happy!"

Ye Yuze was speechless, making himself look like an ignorant person. If he had known earlier, he would have taken it. There are still some in the car.

His trunk was full of alcohol, just for socializing. Although he wanted to give up treatment, he didn't want to commit suicide, he just didn't want to live without dignity.

The man immediately asked his wife to order more dishes as he wanted to drink with his friends.

As a result, my wife brought wild yellow sheep meat and dried meat. These are all cooked and just need to be steamed.

Ye Yuze was also speechless. It seemed that customers were also divided into different levels. The world was no longer as it used to be.

Several more friends came one after another, all invited by the host, one was a village chief and the other was a township chief. It was obvious that they were people of different status.

Xiao Di naturally noticed Ye Yuze's unnaturalness, and kept laughing with his hands covering his mouth. This scumbag was really stingy.

Yang Geyong did not discuss his departure with Ye Yuze, he just drank and looked very happy.

He might be the one who is most anxious about Ye Yuze's disappearance.

The two of them were inseparable, closer than wives. If Ye Yuze asked him to die together, Gu Ji would really follow him, but he actually left without saying goodbye.

The dinner ended with Yang Geyong and Xiao Di fighting each other. The others had already fallen down. Ye Yuze watched quietly and did not join in.

He always drinks in moderation and rarely gets drunk. After the two of them finished drinking, neither of them was drunk. Yang Geyong was unwilling to give up and wanted to go to the car to get some wine, but was stopped by Ye Yuze.

Later, the three people said goodbye to the hostess and did not stay at her house. Instead, they went to where Yang Geyong lived.

Yang Geyong booked two rooms. Because there was an airport here, he arrived earlier than Ye Yuze.

Before coming, he called the branch in the provincial capital and asked them to make arrangements.

Ye Yuze was driving the car. It was obvious that Yang Geyong and Xiao Di were still excited, so even though they didn't even know each other's names, they were chatting happily.

But after arriving at the hotel, Yang Geyong was dumbfounded because he had to register his ID card, but Ye Yuze and Xiao Di both said they had lost it.

This is awkward. Without an ID card, they won't let him stay. He can't just stay there alone and let Ye Yuze and the other person sleep in the car, right?
Yang Geyong called his son again and told him that the sister company did not have a branch here, but his son's company did.

When Yang Wei heard that his father had gone to Turpan, he naturally contacted them immediately and quickly arranged a house for him.

The house is located in the suburbs of Turpan, close to the Flaming Mountain, and this arrangement is also for their convenience in traveling.

Turpan is an ancient city and an important town on the ancient Silk Road, so its economy has always developed well.

As early as the Neolithic Age, six or seven thousand years ago, there were human activities.

At that time, the people of Turpan mainly engaged in hunting and gathering. After entering the slave society, the mode of production gradually changed to agriculture, and they gradually settled down in the Turpan Basin.

According to the Records of the Grand Historian, the indigenous people living in the Turpan Basin were the Gushi people, who established the Gushi (later called Cheshi) Kingdom, Huhu Kingdom, Xiaojinfu Kingdom, Cheshi Houchengchang Kingdom, and Cheshi Duwei Kingdom in the Turpan Basin.

However, at that time, there was no connection between this place and the mainland until the Western Han Dynasty.

During the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu in northern China controlled most of the Western Regions and constantly invaded the Han Dynasty.

In the third year of Jianyuan (138 BC), Zhang Qian was sent to the Western Regions to unite the countries in the Western Regions in order to cut off the "right arm" of the Xiongnu.

The land of "Gushi" is an important channel for opening up the Western Regions and its strategic position is extremely important.

As a result, the Western Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu launched a long and repeated struggle for "Gushi".

In the third year of Yuanfeng (108 BC), the Han Dynasty sent General Zhao Po Nu and Wang Hui to lead tens of thousands of cavalry to conquer Loulan and defeat Gushi. Gushi was renamed Cheshi and became a vassal of the Western Han Dynasty.

Cheshi formed the Cheshi Kingdom in the north and south of Bogda Mountain. Soon, the Xiongnu took control of Cheshi again. In the third year of Tianhan (99 BC), the Han Dynasty appointed the Xiongnu surrendered general Jiehe Wang Chengban as Kailing Marquis and led the Loulan army to attack Cheshi. The Xiongnu sent Youxian Wang to lead tens of thousands of cavalry to rescue, and the Han army was defeated and returned.

In the fourth year of Zhenghe (89 BC), the Han Dynasty sent Kailing Hou to lead troops from Loulan and other six countries to besiege Cheshi, and the King of Cheshi surrendered to the Han Dynasty.

In the first year of Yuanping reign of Emperor Zhao of Han (74 BC), the Xiongnu reoccupied Cheshi and sent 71 cavalrymen to cultivate the land there. In the third year of Benshi reign ( BC), the Han Dynasty and Wusun jointly attacked the Xiongnu from the east and west. The Xiongnu soldiers who cultivated the land in Cheshi were frightened and fled, and Cheshi was again under the control of the Han Dynasty.

Afterwards, the King of Cheshi married the Xiongnu, and the Han lost Cheshi again.

In the second year of the Dijie reign (68 BC), Zheng Ji, the assistant minister of the Han Dynasty, led his troops to capture Jiaohe City in Cheshi and stationed 300 soldiers to cultivate land in Cheshi.

The Xiongnu sent troops to fight for it again. In the fourth year of Yuankang (62 BC), the Han Dynasty gave up Cheshi. In the second year of Shenjue (60 BC), the Xiongnu were in civil strife, and the Xiongnu King Ruju led his people to surrender to the Han Dynasty. These five major battles for Cheshi are known in history as the "Five Battles for Cheshi".

In the same year (60 BC) when the Western Han Dynasty unified the Western Regions, it established a Protectorate General in the Western Regions, with Zheng Ji as the first Protector General. From then on, the Western Regions became part of the Han Dynasty.

After Cheshi returned to the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty "divided it into the former and latter kingdoms of Cheshi and the six kingdoms north of the mountain", dividing the original territory of the Cheshi people into eight kingdoms according to the geographical situation. Among them, the former kingdom of Cheshi was located in the present Turpan south of Bogda Mountain.

The Book of Han - Biography of the Western Regions records that "In the former state of Cheshi, the king ruled Jiaohe City (now the ancient city of Jiaohe in Turpan), and the river water split and flowed around the city, so it was called Jiaohe.

It is eight thousand one hundred and fifty li away from Chang'an, with seven hundred households, six thousand fifty people, and one thousand eight hundred and sixty-five victorious soldiers.

In the first year of Chu Yuan (48 BC), the Han Dynasty established the Wuyi Cavalry Commandant in the former Cheshi State, stationed in Jiaohe City, and took charge of the military farming affairs in the Western Regions.

In the fourth year of Yangshuo (21 BC), the Wuyi Colonel moved to Gaochangbi (now the ancient city of Gaochang in Turpan City).

By the first year of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty (25 AD), the former Cheshi Kingdom had annexed all the states in Turpan, and Jiaohe City became the first political, economic and cultural center of Turpan.

Throughout the history of the Western Regions, this city has always been in the midst of war and contention, which shows how important its geographical location was at that time.

From the Han Dynasty to the Republic of China, it has always been under the jurisdiction of China, and has continued to this day.

The reason for this, in addition to its geographical location, is also related to its topography. Turpan City is an olive-shaped mountain basin running east-west in the eastern Tianshan Mountains and is surrounded by mountains on all sides.

It has a typical continental warm temperate desert climate, with abundant sunshine and heat but extreme dryness, sparse rainfall and frequent strong winds, hence the name "Fire Continent" and "Wind Repository".

Most importantly, such a place is extremely rich in water resources. There are 14 major rivers, including

There are 9 rivers originating in the territory (Daheyan River, Tarlang River, Meiyaogou River, Heigou River, Qialkan River; Ertanggou, Kekeya, Kanerqi; Keerjiangou), mainly originating from the northern Tianshan Mountain area.

There are five rivers originating from outside the country (Baiyang River, Alagou, Yuergou, Wusitonggou, and Zulumutugou). The middle and high mountainous areas in the west and north of the Turpan Basin are the main areas of water resources. The plain area has very little precipitation, which is of little significance to the replenishment of surface water and groundwater, and is a water resource distribution area.

This unique climate and water resources make the quality of the fruits here extremely excellent, especially the grapes, which are quite famous throughout China.

But now it is winter, so there are definitely no grapes, but we can have freedom over raisins.

The house that Yang Wei arranged for him was a residential building with four bedrooms and two living rooms. This was also one of the communities they developed.

The dormitory that originally belonged to the company's employees was urgently vacated.

Because everything was ready, and Ye Yuze and his friends slept in their clothes last night, neither of them had washed up yet. So Ye Yuze quickly cleaned himself up.

After taking a shower and throwing his dirty clothes in the bathroom, Ye Yuze returned to the house.

Because there were four rooms, the three of them each chose one.

When Yang Geyong saw him come out, he followed him into the house.

Ye Yuze naturally knew that his brother wanted to know what he thought, so he did not hide it and told him his decision.

That is, instead of living a life without quality, it is better to let nature take its course, not interfere, and live as long as you can.

Of course he would not tell Yang Geyong that Yinhua was calling him. This kind of thing was just a fantasy. Who could know whether it was true or not?

Yang Geyong was silent for a long time, then said: "If you leave, I will go with you."

Ye Yuze cursed: "Are you fucking mentally ill? How can two men commit suicide for love? Stay alive and help me look after my family."

Yang Geyong smiled bitterly: "Do you think that if you really die, Auntie can still live? If she is gone, Uncle won't live long either."

"As for your women and children, who am I to control?"

Ye Yuze was silent. What he said was very true. Each of the women was worth a lot of money. If he really died, it would not be surprising for them to go looking for men.

Children are even more out of control, because who can control what the future will be like?

Ye Yuze sighed: "Just let Ye Mao take over the Warrior Group smoothly, no one else can do anything about it."

Yang Geyong nodded: "At present, this is the only thing that should go smoothly. After all, you are the one who brought up those people, and they have lost their shares. They will definitely not make things difficult for your son."

Ye Yuze spread his hands: "It can only be done this way. I can't do anything else. I just don't want anything to happen to the Warrior Group."

Yang Geyong lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and seemed to want to say something, but hesitated.

Looking at his expression, Ye Yuze couldn't help but curse:
"If you have something to say, just say it. If you have to fart, just fart. Why are you hesitating?"

Yang Geyong put out the cigarette he had just taken two puffs of: "The only person I'm worried about is Wei Yuxiang."

Ye Yuze was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I know you and him have never gotten along since childhood, but I still trust this person. He is the person I trust the most besides you."

Yang Geyong looked into his eyes and said, "You know me. I won't blindly suspect anyone. But I don't know what's going on. I just don't trust him. Now that Wang Lina is his daughter-in-law, I think I have to be on guard."

Ye Yuze smiled: "He doesn't even have any shares now, and he hasn't even received any dividends in all these years. If you say that others are greedy, I believe it, but I don't believe him!"

"He built the steel company on his own. I haven't even looked at the accounts in all these years. If he wanted to do something, he would have done it long ago. Why wait until now?"

Yang Geyong shook his head in distress: "I know what you said is true, but I just can't believe him."

Ye Yuze patted his shoulder: "Okay, stop imagining it. We have been brothers for decades, but now we don't even trust each other anymore. Who else can we trust in this world?"

Yang Geyong also laughed. Maybe he was just being too suspicious.

"Promise me Yuze, I don't care how long you can live. Let me stay with you, otherwise I will not feel at ease."

Ye Yuze nodded and cursed: "You are so pitiful. If I chase you away, will you leave? But I guess I won't die at that time. Then you won't have much freedom. Can you bear it?"

Yang Geyong laughed and punched him: "We have been together all these years, what's so hard about that? The most uncomfortable thing is actually these few days when I couldn't find you."

After a few jokes, the atmosphere became better. They were all open-minded people and had experienced life and death before. They were just not used to it at the beginning.

When Xiao Di finished taking a shower and was about to do laundry, he saw the clothes Ye Yuze had thrown away, bit his lip and picked them up.

It feels a bit strange to help a man wash his clothes and underwear.
