Chapter 144: A More Correct Choice (15)

"Ruan Xihao, what are you going to do?" Lei Hu found Wei Changrong after the Politburo's luncheon.

"Ruan Xi Haoken is honest, what's wrong with this?" Wei Changrong is not a person who will be instigated, if the standard-bearer representing the province is Lei Hu, Wei Changrong will not be so easy. No matter how much Wei Ze coerces everything, Wei Changrong has to take the responsibility he has to bear. The way to do this is to wait for the old guys to retire. The old guys are on stage, and Wei Changrong is not easy to do. When the old guys retired, the new group of leaders could only be obedient in front of Wei Changrong. Because Wei Changrong is an old guy, an old guy with a great background and deep qualifications.

"It's not a problem for him to make such a fuss." Lei Hu still wanted to test Wei Changrong's true attitude.

Wei Changrong touched his chin and said in a relaxed tone: "I think so, the country has made such a large sum of money, and it can't let the brothers have no benefits." I think that there are so many places to use money now, and the pension set for meritorious heroes back then is not as easy to use as before. I think doubling the pension of the heroes, what do you think, Tiger? ”

Lei Hu was a little dumbfounded by this suggestion, and after a while, he replied: "What are you trying to make trouble about?" ”

Wei Changrong replied frankly: "Tiger, if you are a brother for a lifetime, you will be a brother, and if you become a comrade, you must have the warmth of spring." If you have to say that the brothers are all stinky shit, then what are we? There are some things that we can't do to the brothers, and there are some things that we have to come forward to work for the benefit of the brothers. After a lifetime of hard work, the country has the income of the gold mine, where will there be a shortage of this money. ”

After staring at Wei Changrong for a while, Lei Hu only felt that Wei Changrong was becoming more and more like Wei Ze in some aspects. Indeed, the retirement pension of meritorious people can be withdrawn in advance, and many people's pensions have been used for buying houses, cars, and other expenses. Some have even borrowed money from organizations. If the pension of this meritorious person is doubled, these people are equivalent to taking the meritorious pension for nothing. For the old brothers, this money is really able to give them a very decent retirement.

But because of this, Lei Hu is very skeptical that this kind of open bribery is not too much. Using this naked bribery to gag the mouths of these old brothers is not the right way to look.

Lei Hu was very skeptical that Wei Changrong's idea was instructed by Wei Ze, but he was not sure if it was true, Wei Ze did not seem to be someone who would take such a approach. But Lei Hu is Lei Hu after all, and he is very keenly aware of a faint malice. If this sugar coating is wrapped in the fury of thunder, that is, whoever confronts the central government again will face the punishment of dismissal, then this money is of great significance.

For the provincial cadres, the pension has doubled, and no matter how big the grievance is, it cannot be said that Wei Ze is not righteous. Unless they are blinded by power and have reached the point of madness, no one will want to retire disgracefully at this time. Not to mention that even if you retire dishonorably, you can still get this money. People are all face-to-face.

"Will the Governor agree?" Lei Hu finally asked.

"It doesn't matter whether the governor agrees to this matter or not, we, as members of the Central Committee, can directly put forward this opinion at the Central Committee." Wei Changrong's attitude is very straightforward.

In the afternoon, Wei Changrong made this request in a grand manner at the Central Committee. When they learned that they had returned their little remaining pensions, the members who were usually lavish all smiled, and even those who spent their money more modestly also smiled.

The source of the money was then announced at the Committee, and it was determined that a large gold mine had been found in Africa, to the delight of all the Commissioners. The tense committee became relaxed, and everyone threw the unhappiness out of the clouds. Even Wang Mingshan, the governor of the central bank, felt professional heartache for this hundreds of millions of expenditures, but also felt that his eyes were bright. Not all heroes can get millions, and on average, the tens of thousands of old brothers are hundreds of thousands per person. That's a billion in total. This amount of money may have been astronomical in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it is not so outrageous now.

Wang Mingshan's eyes fell on Wei Ze, and he didn't want to oppose this proposal. But once Wei Ze objected, or if he wanted to revise the number, no matter how unhappy everyone was, they could only listen to Wei Ze's orders.

"I said that when you become a brother, you will be a brother for the rest of your life. But let's divide things into two parts, since this is an additional expense, you must retire to get this money. If you pay in advance, you can't stand it financially. Wei Ze spoke very cheerfully, this was originally the suggestion he instructed Wei Changrong to come up with. For the current struggle, Wei Ze is also a little tired. It has been said that the change of the thinking of the times does not depend on the transformation of the current generation, but on the death of this generation, and the next generation with different education will naturally have their new ideas. The same is true for the committee, when this wave of old guys obediently retires, the next wave will come up with new people. Giving the old guys a decent retirement is more important than anything else. As soon as the person leaves, the tea is cold.

"This is the treatment that only our old brothers will have, and there is such a group of people who founded the country. There will be no such good things in the future. Wei Ze still put the bottom line out, "If everyone has no other opinions, then vote." ”

The vote was unanimously passed, and there was no such hypocrisy in the committee at this time, and no one raised objections in vain. With the swift passage of this vote, the atmosphere of struggle in the entire committee was instantly wiped out. There are no fools who can get mixed up with the committee, and after taking this money, everyone knows the meaning of this money. Governor Wezedu didn't want to watch his brothers get into trouble again. Let's pause for a while. The resolution has a proviso that it cannot be publicized to the outside world and is only implemented through the Ministry of Finance. For those who have retired and deceased, the repayment of this money begins after three years. Undoubtedly, this echoes the mass retirement wave that began three years later.

After a period of calm, the issue of retirement was discussed privately by the committee members. Not a particularly high-ranking official who will retire at the age of sixty. More than one-third of the current committee members will retire after three years at most, and most of the remaining two-thirds will not be able to serve for seven years. Although the retirement system has been implemented until now, large-scale retirement is only about to enter its peak.

A large sum of money is about to be paid, and a considerable number of committee members feel sad about retirement. However, the prospect of becoming rich immediately after retirement is naturally quite attractive. If you are willing to retire, you can apply for retirement at the age of 58 according to the seven-up-eight-down rule. Seeing that there was no hope of promotion, many provincial-level committee members could not help but raise the view of whether or not to retire now. "Now it's time to enjoy the day and two days!"

Wang Mingshan originally wanted to implement the gold standard, but now he disagrees with the gold standard system. The payment of such huge gold wealth under the gold standard can be imagined as the pressure on the country's finances. The paper money era gave money, which can be solved by a small means of additional issuance. From the point of view of economic circulation, this money cannot be given directly to the banknote, but to the passbook. In fact, the money is still in the bank and can be used by the state. Even if it is taken out, it will enter the circulation market, increasing the circulation of goods and money. On the whole, it's not a bad thing.

"Governor, isn't it a bit of a thing for you to do this?" Shen Xin was born as the director of the political department, and he privately asked Wei Ze what he wanted to do.

Whether the old brother is willing to enjoy it or not, Wei Ze doesn't care at all. Zhao Kuangyin's cup of wine released the military power, and his evaluation in history is not bad. There were many redundant officials in the Song Dynasty, and cute officials were also a big problem. But I didn't see that the people behind me also put forward their request to enjoy the same treatment as the founding predecessors. It would be entirely good for Weeser to let the old guys step down from the front line of the struggle sooner.

"Domestic problems, solved abroad. We also have to talk about ways of doing things sometimes. In response to Shen Xin's question, Wei Ze had to admit that this traditional trick of imperialism was indeed very efficient, and if he wanted to maintain the balance of the ruling class in the country, he could either subdue them or give them benefits to calm the contradictions. In any case, Weeser is reluctant to kill the old brothers, which is not only a problem of the system, but also a problem of building tradition.

At that time, if you wanted to leave the party, you didn't need any complicated procedures, and you could quit by publicly issuing a statement on leaving the party. It was this kind of approach, which was very unusual in those days, that allowed the reluctant to have an exit mechanism, which saved too much effort.

"What? Do you think it's inappropriate? Wei Ze asked Shen Xin.

"I think it's a good time. There are good reasons, and everyone needs something to lower the anger. Shen Xin said solemnly.

"And what exactly do you want to say?" Weser also asked bluntly.

"I want to say whether these old brothers will take advantage of the last few years to vigorously arrange their own people. As far as I know, the children of these comrades have entered the civil service in large numbers. Shen Xin said his worries.

"If you're worried about that, you don't have to. If those people are capable, why don't we welcome them? If those people can't do it, and there is no one to support them, these people will have their own system to control them when they commit crimes. The problem at the moment is that I don't want to see these people have someone to support them, and the old brothers have withdrawn, even if they come out to make it clear, there is a way for the young comrades to sell face, but listening to the arrangement of the old comrades, I don't think they will do it. Wei Ze was very relieved to Shen Xin, and he was telling the truth.

Shen Xin nodded slightly, he was originally worried that Wei Ze would be soft-hearted for a while. Seeing that Wei Ze was still as calm as ever, he didn't have anything to say. In fact, when he asked this question, he was already relying on Wei Ze's absolute trust in him, and another person might not really dare to ask such a question.
