Dear Tom,
Glad to know that your uncle plans to invest here. Now I’ll introduce my hometown to you.
My hometown is a lovely city located on the bank of the Yangtze River, with a population of about 200,000. It used to be a small fishing village. There was no industry and most people here lived by fishing. SinceChinacarried out the reform and opening-up policy, great changes have taken place. Many foreigners, including Canadian businessmen, have come here and built lots of factories. The transportation is convenient and products can be shipped by land, air or water. A big port has recently been built, which connects my hometown with the outside world. My hometown is also famous for its natural beauty and friendly people. We always welcome people from home and abroad to join us in developing it.
I hope your uncle and you can pay a visit to my hometown. You’ll surely have a good time here.
Yours,
Li Hua
