Chapter 220: Paying a Terrible Price
readx;
Taking advantage of the fact that it is not too busy now, the heat is unbearable, Zhang Mingyu took Mr. Fang to Checheng to inspect the market. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang Mingyu started a new round of market investigation along the automobile corridor laid out by Secretary Zhu Wenyuan of Nanjiang Province.
The first stop is naturally Zengzhou City, which is the closest to Jiangcheng.
It turned out that from Jiangcheng to Checheng, it was necessary to pass through Zengzhou and Jingxi.
The reason why he came to Zengzhou first is because the current secretary of Zengzhou City is Zhang Mingyu's old leader, the former director of the Materials Department.
Moreover, Yuhong Commercial Vehicle Company has officially opened a branch in Zengzhou last year, and now the branch has been completed and put into operation.
Zhang Mingyu remembered that under the many kind invitations of Director Chang, Wang Bingqian just took advantage of the opportunity to bid for real estate plots in Zengzhou to determine the site of Yuhong Commercial Automobile in Zengzhou.
Today, Yuhong Tianxia has two large-scale real estate development projects in Zengzhou, and the production of Yuhong commercial vehicle Zengzhou base is becoming more and more normal.
Before they arrived in Zengzhou City, Xiao Li, the secretary of the permanent secretary, called all the time, asking Zhang Mingyu to come over quickly, and the permanent secretary was waiting for them.
Mr. Fang said with a smile,
"Mr. Zhang, Director Chang takes care of you, an old subordinate, and I am touching your light."
Zhang Mingyu shook his head and said,
"Mr. Fang, you just made a mistake, I am your light, you are the same age as the director of the permanent hall, it turned out that you can talk about it in the material hall, this time the permanent director heard that you are here, and he is very happy."
Mr. Fang responded with emotion,
"Mr. Zhang, don't mention that I am the same year as him, I am like a fish in my throat when I mention this."
Zhang Mingyu knew that Fang Jifeng wanted to recall the rhythm of his eventful years.
Zhang Mingyu looked up at Mr. Fang and said disapprehantly,
"Mr. Fang, you can't be as pessimistic as you, I know that you regret listening to your sister-in-law's words and regretting not continuing to stay in the army."
Mr. Fang's first jaw said,
"It's still Mr. Zhang who understands me, to be honest, it wasn't your sister-in-law who obstructed me in every way, I'm in the army now, and I'm definitely a division-level officer."
Mr. Fang is right, thinking that at the beginning, in the self-defense counterattack, a deputy battalion commander, under the condition that the battalion commander and instructor were all honorably sacrificed, led the officers and men of the whole battalion to bravely kill the enemy, repel the enemy's offensive, and leave valuable preparation time for the attack of the large army.
Because of his outstanding military achievements, Fang Jifeng was awarded a second-class meritorious service and was directly promoted from the firing line of a deputy battalion cadre to the director of the regiment's political department at the deputy regimental level.
Fang Jifeng often told people that the guns of the Chinese army at that time were only aimed at the Vietnamese army, and did not attack the common people, leaving them to live. As a result, some Vietnamese troops disguised themselves as local civilians to carry out a sneak attack on the Chinese army, and the civilians who could not bear to attack them also secretly killed Chinese soldiers, resulting in heavy casualties among our troops.
Later, he could not bear it anymore, fought back, concentrated artillery fire on the Vietnamese army and civilians, and did not stop fighting until he was 20 kilometers away from the capital Phnom Penh. Our army taught the Vietnamese army a hard lesson with more than five times the strength of the other side, and the Vietnamese army fled in despair. The guns and mines used by the Vietnamese army were reinforced by China during the lifetime of President Ho Chi Minh, but later Vietnam's relations with China deteriorated, and he took revenge and killed the Chinese with weapons given by China.
Zhang Mingyu understood that Fang Jifeng was telling the truth, if he was still in the army back then, with his meritorious service and university diploma, he would definitely be a cadre above the division level now.
Zhang Mingyu shrugged and said,
"Mr. Fang, aren't you just reluctant to give up your beautiful sister-in-law?"
Wang Qile, who had not spoken for a long time, said,
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Fang is still reluctant to give up his handsome and dashing son."
Mr. Fang smiled comfortably,
"Wang Qi is a ghost, you two are right, it's not that I can't leave my wife and son, I have already taken root in the army."
Zhang Mingyu said calmly,
"Mr. Fang, you are good! , my son is older, and my sister-in-law is also by my side, if I continue to be on the front line, maybe what's going on? ”
Mr. Fang was extremely uncomfortable and said in a low voice,
"I don't feel comfortable thinking about the soldiers under my hands, the new soldiers are all eighteen or nine years old, just leaving their hometowns, leaving their parents and moving towards a new life, many people come with the dream of learning, technology, and culture to grow up in the barracks, and they don't know that they want to go to war."
Zhang Mingyu empathized and said,
"I have a cousin who went to the front to fight, and the result was that he came back with one arm missing. ”
Mr. Fang frowned and said,
"Everyone knows that war is cruel, and to fight a war is to beat people to the death, not to make a joke, and if you are lucky enough to receive awards for meritorious service, you may also join the party and be promoted to an officer. If you are unlucky, you will die on the battlefield, and you will never know what it is like to love men and women, and no one wants such a life. But who can guarantee that they will come back alive? ”
Zhang Mingyu echoed,
"Mr. Fang, my cousin said that at that time, the new soldiers were crying together, with tears on their faces, and some were crying in pain in the bed, as if the sky was falling. Most people are thinking that they may never see their relatives again. ”
Mr. Fang replied rather sentimentally,
"But raising soldiers for a thousand days is a time to use soldiers, and soldiers must obey orders unconditionally. Willingly or unwillingly, after a pre-war mobilization, the soldier who had recently left his parents finally embarked on an unknown journey in life. ”
Zhang Mingyu said with a smile,
"So my sister-in-law got you back from the army, I just didn't want to live that kind of scared life. Mr. Fang, it's really a pity, otherwise, your old man might still become a general. ”
Wang Qi sighed and said repeatedly,
"Tsk, Mr. Fang, look at it, aren't some leaders in the army just like you at the beginning, and they are also deputy regimental positions? Now they are all at the military division level, Mr. Fang, the price of your old man's coming back is a bit big. ”
Mr. Fang said,
"I'm content now, when I was in the army, several cadres at the same level, didn't they come back? I'm in a better state of mind and don't want to think too much. ”
The three of them chatted and chatted, and soon arrived at the Zengzhou City Hotel, where the permanent secretary personally set up a banquet to greet his old subordinates.
As soon as several people met, they were extremely happy.
Secretary Chang introduced the entourage, and several people heard that Zhang Mingyu was the lover of Chairman Wang, who came to invest last time, and he was very enthusiastic.
As soon as the permanent secretary gave the order, the luncheon began.
Secretary Chang first toasted to Zhang Mingyu and them,
"Mingyu, Lao Fang, thank you for coming to see me, we drank together."
Zhang Mingyu hurriedly stopped Secretary Chang,
"Old leader, we should respect you, you are free, I and Mr. Fang have done it, Wang Qi, you can take a drink and clink glasses with Secretary Chang!"
After drinking this cup, the secretary general of the Municipal Party Committee, the director of the office, and the director of the reception office of Zengzhou City all toasted with Zhang Mingyu and several guests.
Secretary Chang smiled and said to Zhang Mingyu,
"Mingyu, a few of you here last time appreciated your lady's demeanor, and I admired it very much!"
Secretary-General Li said with a smile while pouring wine to Zhang Mingyu,
"Mr. Zhang, it's really unimaginable that your lady actually controls a huge listed company, and her demeanor is enviable."
Zhang Mingyu took the wine glass and said with a serious face,
"Leaders know again, what a price I should have paid for having such a wonderful woman by my side." Everyone laughed.
Secretary Chang stared at Zhang Mingyu and said,
"Mingyu, we feel the same way, the last time Chairman Wang came to Zengzhou to invest, he bargained with our Mayor Ma, to be honest, we Zengzhou also paid a great price. But now it seems that the price was well paid. ”
