When the car arrived in Subo, it was more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Taizhong asked Zhang Yaodong for leave, first called the provincial investment company, made an appointment to do things tomorrow, and then it was a visit from all over the world.

The first place he went to was definitely the Department of Water Resources, where not only his personal friends, but also small hydropower cooperation projects, unfortunately, he came at the wrong time, the director of the department, Zhang Guojun, reported to the vice governor in charge of Sha Pengcheng, and the deputy secretary Wang Haobo was there.

"It's really more leisurely to be a secretary in this department," Chen Taizhong saw him in the office, and came as soon as he opened his mouth to joke, "Secretary Wang, do you regret that you didn't fight for the deputy director at that time?" ”

"What do you regret?" Wang Haobo replied to him with a smile, "How much appetite and how much to eat, it's good now, you are also a coincidence, I just came back at noon today, and I went down to inspect the rural network transformation project." ”

"Wang Hall, you are going down, I guess you have to be in charge of the reception of the deputy mayor, right?" Chen Taizhong didn't know much about this level of reception, in his mind, a deputy hall in the city, there must be a corresponding level of leaders to receive, and the director of the Water Conservancy Bureau received it, and the level was a bit low.

"The retreat thing, go down and have the mayor pick up. Wait, pragmatic words may not be, no one wants to take responsibility, right? Wang Haobo seemed to smile a little silly, "Besides, the relationship between the Zhenglin Water Conservancy Bureau and the mayor in charge is not very iron......"

Through Wang Haobo's explanation, Chen Taizhong knew. Generally speaking, the principle of the same level is the same level, and it is said that if the deputy hall goes down, it should be the deputy mayor's reception, of course, it also depends on whether the deputy hall is a real power person - if it is an assistant inspector, you can't complain if the mayor in charge does not come forward.

Of course, if it's really an assistant inspector to go down. In the case of inspection, what they do is basically a retreat, and most of the ordinary deputy mayors also have to give a face--people are mixed in the officialdom, and this promotion is mutual, many friends have one more road, one less enemy and one wall, who dares to say that people are assistant inspectors for life?

These are all said from the point of view of the public and the rules, however, the real decision. The level of reception is often the situation that Secretary Wang said: the problem of the size of the local bureau and the distance of the relationship.

As a director, the deputy office above comes to inspect and can be asked to be in charge. Mayor, then prove that he has face, the city attaches great importance to it, if you can't invite it, it proves that this person is very ordinary in the local area, and the deputy mayor is not willing to give face.

However, the words of the deputy mayor who do not give face will occasionally lead to some. The occurrence of the situation, for example, right now, Wang Haobo snorted gloomily, "Since he has a disagreement with the work of the Water Conservancy Bureau, then the money for the Zhenglin Agricultural Network Renovation Project, just wait and then allocate it, our Water Conservancy Department will not print money, there will always be a time when the money is loose and tight, is it easy for me to go down in the first month?" It's a shame for him...... You say, don't you? ”

Of course, people are in charge. The mayor doesn't sell Secretary Wang's face, he must have his own ideas, Chen Taizhong thought of one of them, "Will Zhang Guojun agree?" "Maybe someone is leaning on the boss of the Water Conservancy Department, so naturally they can't be the secretary of the bird king.

"I am in charge of the supervision of the rural network renovation project, and in this regard, Director Zhang is still more supportive of me," Wang Haobo had already thought of this, "If he doesn't support me, how can this work be carried out?" ”

As an official, you can't be without power for a day, Chen Taizhong understands this, Secretary Wang seems to be calling it true, but this mentality is normal when you think about it, the deputy secretary in the department and bureau doesn't sound like that, and there is some slackness below, and Secretary Wang's sensitive careful strings are plucked.

However, he still has to persuade if he should be persuaded, "Then there is also a problem of proportion, right?" If the mayor in charge is in a hurry and forces the director of the water conservancy bureau to ask for money, isn't he quite wronged? ”

"Don't worry, I'm naturally measured," Wang Haobo looked at him strangely, and explained with a smile, "I'm also a person who supports the water conservancy system, and Lao Liu thanked me too late to ......."

There is also a saying in this that it is normal for the mayor in charge not to give face to the director, but the deputy department really has to care, it is also troublesome, according to the current example, Director Liu of the Water Conservancy Bureau can't wait for the appropriation, so he can only go to the deputy mayor in charge.

If the deputy mayor orders him to run the money, it is appropriate to come down a little, that is the ability of the director of the water conservancy bureau, you see that your mayor will not pay the money, I will come down.

It is conceivable that the money in the hall will not be given too happily, this is not to embarrass Director Liu, but to give the deputy mayor eye medicine, hmph, let's go down to a deputy hall, you don't show your head - it's not appropriate, right?

However, if the deputy mayor comes to the hall to run for money, what awaits him can be imagined, you don't see the person who sent it to the door, and now you run over, what do you say you are not a cheap?

From a certain point of view, Wang Haobo's calculating approach can be regarded as maintaining the prestige of the Water Conservancy Department -- people's faults are all habitual, and we are not used to them! So, this is considered to be a head for the local water conservancy bureau, or not to say that a dog in the provincial department is stronger than others? That's what it means.

Everything is afraid of the word "serious", Secretary Wang should be serious, that is the matter, if he is not serious, it doesn't matter, strictly speaking, he is not embarrassed, the last time he went to Phoenix, he did not see the deputy mayor in charge Wang Rong, but Mayor Wang held a meeting in the province at that time, which is understandable.

In fact, Wang Haobo was able to take this opportunity to attack because of two indispensable reasons, one is that his relationship with Zhang Guojun is acceptable, and Director Zhang will not interfere with his maintenance of the prestige of the hall.

The second is that the transformation of agricultural electricity is not better than the construction of the party or administrative functions and the like, it is a project that costs money, not only costs money but also spends a lot of money, for this kind of thing to go down to the deputy hall, you the deputy mayor is not seen is not a good attitude, then the project is slightly affected, isn't it very normal?

Wang Haobo knows that Chen Taizhong is young, although the current power is not small, but after all, there are too few things to experience, and there are many twists and turns in the *** and I don't know it, so I have to explain the key points slowly, of course, this is the relationship between the two of them, and if you change it to others, Secretary Wang is not so boring.

"There are really no trivial matters in the officialdom, and the leaders are so particular about receiving them," Chen Taizhong listened with emotion, in fact, he knew more about the relevant rules, but he didn't think about this matter systematically and put himself in his shoes, and now with Wang Haobo's guidance, it suddenly became clear, "However, if Zhenglin City finds Sha Pengcheng, the Water Conservancy Department can't bear it, right?" ”,

"If you can't bear this matter, you won't carry it, there are other projects, I don't believe that they will go back to Governor Sha, or Zhang Guojun won't have to be the director, Governor Sha will just forget it," Wang Haobo smiled disapprerovingly, "I know you're worried about me, but it's okay, they have many workarounds if they want to admit their mistakes...... Okay, let's not talk about that, let's have dinner together? ”

"It's okay to eat, but I'm here with Secretary Zhang this time," Chen Taizhong smiled bitterly, "It's the kind that belongs to the kind that is on call, in case there is a greeting halfway through the meal, don't blame me for picking on it." ”

"Pick and choose, this kind of thing is common," Wang Haobo won't care about this, who hasn't encountered this kind of thing at the dinner table? What he cares about is something else, "It's okay to be too loyal, it's okay to be so close to Zhang Yaodong, tsk, it's really promising." ”

Eating is also particular about accompanying guests, Chen Taizhong thought about it for a few days this time when he came to Subo, but he was not in a hurry to invite others, but he called Han Zhong over to accompany him, and Gao Yunfeng was there.

Han Zhong's news is not ordinarily well-informed, at the beginning of the banquet, he actually asked Chen Taizhong, "Taizhong, I heard the fifth child tell me, you and Lin Haichao got into a fight?" ”

Nine times out of ten, Han Tian's news came from the iron hand, and it was normal for Han Zhong to know, and Gao Yunfeng also came to his senses when he heard it, "Lin Haichao, isn't that the richest man in our Tiannan?" ”

So, Chen Taizhong explained the process one or two, of course, what he said must be an abridged version, the things that were planted can't be said, but the things that the other party bullied people too much have to say a lot, "...... Luckily, they actually have contraband on them......"

The three of them were dumbfounded when they heard this, and it took a long time for Gao Yunfeng to sigh, "You are so loyal to this life, it's really colorful, tsk, it's so interesting, but that drug ...... It's a bit of an exaggeration, you must have an inside line, don't you? ”

"If there is an inside line, I won't tell you," Chen Taizhong shook his head with a smile, and said in his heart that this is a good excuse, well, I will use this excuse to fool people in the future, is it possible that who still forces me to say the name of the inside line? Even if you say it...... Can't I push it on the "missing" dog-faced biao?

Wang Haobo was secretly surprised when he heard this, and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Taizhong, there are people behind this Lin Haichao, there are people in the province and the central government, and you will go to Zhangzhou in the future...... Better be careful. ”

"Hehe, what's so scary?" Han Zhong interjected unconvinced, he was not as good as Lin Haichao if he was more money, but with other factors, he was not afraid of the other party in his heart, he started from a reckless person, and most of his body also had a bit of a reckless dragon and snake taste, "He is just the king behind closed doors in Zhangzhou, and he has to show me one in Subo?" ”

In short, the three of them were quite surprised by the confrontation between Chen Taizhong and Lin Haichao, of course, because the incident happened in Phoenix, no one was surprised by the result, so everyone casually talked about the development history of Haichao Group in recent years.

In Tiannan, Lin Haichao is also a legendary figure, everyone here knows a little, and because the identities of several people are not very ambiguous, when it comes to this person, the truth is better than the anecdote.

Chapter 1494 The Road to the Beginning of the Sea Tide

Lin Haichao's capital is not the right way, it seems that he earned it through gambling, and later bought a small mine, and then half through bank loans, half through forcible robbery, bought three mines, and gradually developed.

His luck was very good, catching up with the explosion of the coal industry in the early nineties, and his net worth quickly accumulated to tens of millions, becoming one of the few richest people in Tiannan Province.

Among the people who started businesses in the same period, Lin Haichao was able to persevere to the end and became the richest man in Tiannan Province, and there was an experience worth mentioning, that is, when his career developed to a certain point, the small coal mines in Zhangzhou had accidents one after another, either gas explosions or water seepage landslides, and those mine owners were bitten by greedy officials covered in blood.

Lin Haichao pondered and found a law that was not a law, that is, the upper limit of the safety production of small coal mines was five years, so according to his own analysis, he gradually sold the four coal mines under his name one by one and changed them to coal preparation and coking.

He was able to resolutely sell his coal mine at the peak of the coal industry with the law of confusion, and it has to be said that there is a bit of courage and stunned taste in it.

Although he sold the coal mine very expensive, and the related equipment and mining equipment were also sold at a high price, there were still people who quietly laughed at him behind his back, saying that Lin was too timid, and the coal market was so good that he sold it, and he really had no foresight - isn't it just a few people who died, and you Lin Haichao can't afford to lose that money?

In good conscience, Lin Haichao can really afford to lose that money, and the money that officials squeeze from him must be less than the profit of coal, but he can't afford to pay for those troubles, and he has long seen what happened to his peers.

Let's not talk about the big leaders or anything, those small section chiefs and clerks, any person dares to make up their minds, go to the mine where the accident happened every once in a while, eat and take cards is a common thing, the key is to have the mine owner accompany to consume - if you don't accompany me, you don't give me face, you just look down on me!

If you look down on me, I will order you to stop production, stop you for ten or twenty days a month, and toss you day and night, and I still don't believe that you are not afraid.

In the early days of reform and opening up, in the process of transforming the planned economy into a market economy, this kind of chaos was all too common, and although it was slightly standardized later, this situation was not an exaggeration at all.

Lin Haichao doesn't like trouble, I think I, Lin someone, is also the master of tens of thousands of dollars a day, how can I have so much spare time to play with you little children? I can't dig coal, I can do something else.

However, it was such a coincidence that not long after he sold four mines, three mines had accidents one after another, and seven people died.

The most absolute is the fourth mine, ten months after he shot, the top added water seepage, thirty-seven lives disappeared alive, although Zhangzhou reported to the province is two dead people, but who is not clear in the hearts of the locals?

Lin Haichao is a lucky person, this is the evaluation of the locals, however, with the decline of the coal market and the fall of prices, everyone found that the surname Lin sold the mine, and sold the price to the highest point, and then thought of the trouble brought to the mine owner by the four mines one after another soon after, everyone had to sigh - what is the ability? That's what it's capable of.

Coal is not good, but the coke is acceptable, Lin Haichao is called a step ahead step by step, originally the coal preparation plant cash and coal mine transactions to buy coal, now well, since it is a credit, credit to the outside people is better than credit to Mr. Lin, everyone is local, Mr. Lin sold the mine a while ago and fell a lot of money, trustworthy! ,

Although the investment in fixed assets of this coking plant is not low, if you really want to build the plant, the bulk is still in the working capital -- coke is also in a recession.

Because of the money in hand and everyone's recognition, and the bank is chasing the rise and not the fall, Lin Haichao easily survived the difficulties of funds, and his strong financing ability led him to dare to make bold moves when selling, and did not care much about other people's credit.

For this reason, he suffered a small loss, but at the same time he also attached to the son of a leader in the capital, who wanted to make money, but had no funds on hand, and at the same time, he didn't want to raise money for the sake of his father's official reputation, but on the contrary, he still didn't look down on small deals, and he was afraid of making trouble one by one - who can give me 20,000 tons of first-class Jiao Xian?

Coke production is also pyramid-shaped, small coke factories are everywhere, there are fewer and fewer high-grade coke, low-grade coke is the most difficult to sell, and first-class coke is not only high-priced, but also not worried about sales, if it is special coke, there are people rushing to ask for it.

20,000 tons is a lot of money, and it is a first-class coke, nearly 10 million dollars, who will eat and support the credit owed to him? But Lin Haichao dared, he has all the advantages of the group of people who got rich first since the reform and opening up -- bold, careful, black-handed, and daring to make desperate bets.

He saw the power behind this person, and said in his heart that with this kind of foundation in your family, it is impossible to swallow my coke and not admit it, it is a big deal that I will recover the money at the cost price, and millions of profits will be lost, which can be regarded as a person who understands it, and it is not a loss.

Who thinks that his temperament is the other party's temper, that one is trying to save trouble, yes, I share sixty percent of the profits of this Haichao coke plant, and I will help introduce customers to your sales in the future, or find me if you don't get the money back.

I have to say that this person's appetite is a little bigger, just dry stocks will account for sixty percent of the profits, but now it is a buyer's market, people dare to say so, this is to give Lin Haichao a way to live, a way to develop healthily.

Of course, the lion above opened his mouth widely, and there was a way to deal with it below, and he made some tricks on the account, and then added a random amount to the cost, Lin Haichao was not a loss, especially this son was delicate and expensive, not only did he think that Zhangzhou was dirty and the air pollution was serious, but he also didn't want people to know that he was tinkering with this thing, so it was rare to come to Zhangzhou once or twice a year - anyway, it was just a stock.

Ya is stationed in Zhangzhou to send an accountant, that accountant is his middle school classmate, if it is reliable, it is no problem, but if you want to talk about professional quality, you can't say - I can't even do the accounts, how can I read other people's books?

The accountant also thinks that Zhang Zhou is dirty, so he stays in Subo for a long time, occasionally goes down to a "micro-service private visit", and more often waits for the other party to report in Subo or Beijing.

With a conscience, he said that this is not a betrayal, just by introducing the relationship and occasionally urging the debt, the son's annual income is nearly 10 million, and he should be content, right?

Later, people actually thought that Lin Haichao was a good person, and said hello from the bank's credit mouth.

After he got up, he met more people in Zhangzhou, and took advantage of the coal market to buy back a few large mines, and the standard of safe production was also improved.

It should be emphasized that the boy's dry stock is only for the coke business, but he is not interested in the mine or anything, the coal is not very prosperous these years, and the danger is quite big, and it is not interesting to make a lot of money, he introduced some younger brothers to cooperate with him, but the appetite of the younger brothers is much worse than that of the eldest brother.

When Lin Haichao got the railway shipment of Zhangzhou coal in his hands, it was finally out of control, and there was no longer a force in the whole Zhangzhou that could pose a substantial threat to him, and now the secretary of the municipal party committee of Zhangzhou was his buddy, and the mayor's son followed his daughter and son-in-law to do business in partnership.

This guy lives more than I nourish, Chen Taizhong was a little envious when he heard it, but the more he knew, the more he felt that Lin Haichao had nothing to be afraid of, "That's it?" ”

"That's what everybody knows, and ...... Eighty percent of the trains that transport coal from Zhangzhou to Shazhou in neighboring provinces are bought by Haichao Group itself, and if they can't use it, they will help others transport it," Han Zhong replied.

Yo, this is amazing, Chen Taizhong was taken aback, if he said that the automobile transportation, shipping transportation and even air transportation Haichao Group can intervene, he is not surprised, but the railway is a monopoly, and the train can only be opened where the rails are laid, and the railway line is state-owned, even if the general Dachang mine has its own railway, it is only from the factory to the station.

And Lin Haichao's train can make money by rail, which is quite remarkable, and it also leads to the sandbank, which shows that the sandbank has also been handled by the Haichao Group, which is definitely not something that can be played by the railway system alone.

Seeing his thoughtful look, Wang Haobo added, "Taizhong, you can't underestimate him, in fact, what you can't see is terrifying, and no one knows how many people are involved in the interests of Haichao Group." ”

"Hehe," Chen Taizhong laughed disdainfully, and said in his heart that no matter how awesome he was, he didn't have to obediently surrender to me, and his buddy could clean him up once, and he could clean him up a second time, but before he could continue to speak, the phone rang.

It was Zhang Yaodong who called, "Xiao Chen, arrive at the Golden Lotus Hotel, Room 401 within twenty minutes." ”

Golden Lotus is a famous hotel in Subo, and this hotel is eight floors high, but all of them are catering, there are no other services, of which the seventh floor is the office area of the hotel.

It is precisely because of the single nature of the service that there is no trouble such as police raids in this hotel, and it has become a banner of the Subo catering industry, which operates from morning tea at 5 a.m. to supper at 4 a.m., basically 24 hours a day.

That is the kind of occasion, which is not dazzling at the moment, so Secretary Zhang set up the banquet here, Chen Taizhong stood up with a wry smile, "Everyone, I'm sorry, the leader called, this ...... I can't help it. ”

"Taizhong, you are really a crow's mouth," Wang Haobo smiled and didn't say anything more, but when he was leaving, Chen Taizhong heard Gao Yunfeng asking, "Which leader are you talking about, Taizhong?" ”

"Our big boss in Phoenix City," Chen Taizhong replied to him, and hurried away, but he was thinking in his heart, it's half past seven, what does Zhang Yaodong mean by calling me to eat?
