The first session of the three sessions is the government work report, the second session is the national congress of the Liberation Party, and the third session is the session of the National People's Congress. The first of the three sessions in 1885 led to a fierce confrontation.

Levi's summed up last year's work, and the overall economic data was probably good, but the premier seriously raised the issue of abolishing agricultural taxes. "According to the survey, some provinces have a negative attitude towards the abolition of agricultural taxes, and the implementation of the problem of linking the abolition of agricultural taxes with compulsory education is very bad. The implementation of the central authorities' resolutions at the local level cannot be compromised, and this is both discipline and order. If the local government fails to implement the decisions of the central government, it is a dereliction of duty......"

"Then the central government doesn't care whether the place is alive or dead, what is it?" A shout came from the left-hand side of the center. Everyone turned their heads to look, but saw that it was Jiangxi Provincial Governor Lu Dingchun who was shouting. Sparse applause and applause rang out in some of the seats, and although there were not many people, they also expressed part of the meaning.

Since Lu Dingchun spoke, he did not hide it, he stood up and continued to shout loudly to Levi on the stage: "The central government is only in charge of ministries and commissions in the economy, and only in charge of state-owned enterprises. Local enterprises are not supported at all, and the central government has been reluctant to speak out about this. On the contrary, it is unfair to talk about local work. ”

Levi knew that something was going to happen at this meeting, but he didn't expect something to go wrong so soon. He also had some preparations in advance, and for Lu Dingchun's question, Levi said: "The central government has allocated all the funds for the financial expenditure on compulsory education. As far as the results of the central inspection are concerned, a lot of this part of the appropriation has been withheld, and Jiangxi Province has probably withheld at least 30%. Governor Lu, if you don't speak, I still have to talk to you about this issue. Now that you've said that, I'll ask you to sit down first. After the government report is over, let's talk about this issue. ”

This is also one of the killer moves prepared by Levi, indiscriminate charging is a problem in all provinces, and if you take it out, the impact will be too big. However, the issue of the allocation of compulsory education is a major matter that is right, and the withholding of compulsory education funds is a major matter, and after a complete investigation, it is enough to remove Lu Dingchun's official hat. Looking at Lu Dingchun condescendingly, Levi waved his hand, "Now you sit down." We must talk about issues related to Jiangxi, and when it comes to talking, you can't avoid them if you want to. ”

Lu Dingchun also put his net worth on the line to be this bird, where was he willing to back down at this time, not only did he not sit down, but shouted in a louder voice: "The central government does not care about the life and death of the localities, does not care about the development of the localities at all, and only cares about the state-owned enterprises." The so-called gradual withdrawal is only to throw those industries that can't make money to the local government, and I have withheld some money, but these funds are used to save the enterprises in the province. There are so many things in the province, and you can't ask for money at all. Is it that only the ministries and commissions are the sons of the state, and the enterprises in our province are all raised by the stepmother? Brothers, it's nothing to remove me Lu Dingsheng, after I am Lu Dingsheng, who should be dismissed later? My Jiangxi Province has been cleaned up, who should it be next? Don't you want to think about it? ”

A lot of things are not what you want to say or not, but whether you dare to say it or not. Lu Dingchun is clearly out of the way, and he has made it clear that the biggest problems encountered by the provinces are now being exposed. The central government's funding is indeed in place, and the use and planning are reasonable. However, in the past decade, as state-owned enterprises have withdrawn from many industries, the province has been extremely enthusiastic about competing for these industries. In recent years, many industries have become extremely problematic in competition with each other. Just as Lu Dingchun said, the state-owned enterprises that have been spun off are all those industries with low technological content, very low profits, or small overall profits, and the provinces are swarming into these industries, and as long as there is the slightest mismanagement, problems will immediately arise. A lot of the money withheld by the provinces was used to save the enterprises directly under their own provinces.

Lu Dingchun made his words clear, and the provincial governors also knew that if Levi was allowed to kill Lu Dingchun easily, then the others would never have a chance to solve these problems in the future. Liu Bufan, secretary of the Hunan Provincial Party Committee, also stood up, "I think what Governor Lu said is reasonable, now it is not a matter of the state allocating money, but too many provincial-level enterprises are not operating well, and the central government does not care about the life or death of our provincial-level enterprises at all." It is true that the central government has not come up with any practical solution other than to criticize us. These provincial-level enterprises are invested with so much money from the provinces, and they can't let this money go down the drain. ”

The leading cadres of the two provinces rose up, and Levi did not feel any special pressure. At present, in the 50 provinces of the Republic of China, only one-twenty-fifth or four percent of those who stand up. Levi continued: "According to the plan, economic issues will be discussed later. Are you jumping up and saying this now, to discuss this issue in advance? ”

"We're just going to talk about this in advance!" Lu Dingchun shouted with a stiff neck.

"Good!" There was a microphone, and Levi's voice was several times louder than Lu Dingchun's, "Now vote to decide whether this meeting will be carried out according to the original plan, or whether to discuss the economic issues in the province first." Get ready to vote! ”

The result of the vote was a big surprise to Lü Dingchun, with five representatives from each of the 50 provinces at the government meeting and 50 representatives from the central government. Of the 300 voters by secret ballot, 3 were invalidated, 194 were in favour of continuing the meeting according to the previous process, and 97 were in favour of discussing the provincial economic issues first. 6 abstentions. Nearly two-thirds of the votes decided by a simple majority believed that the old process should be followed. Less than one-third supported Lu Dingchun and Liu Bufan.

Lu Dingchun and Liu Bufan also knew that although some supporters were plucked up at this time, these supporters did not have an advantage. Of the two-thirds votes in favor of Levi, 50 votes from the central government were excluded, and about 150 people remained, reaching half of the provincial level personnel at the meeting. This balance of power is really a bit of a disparity. They can only continue to listen for the time being.

The news spread quickly, and after more than an hour, the news reached Wesser. Wei Ze couldn't help but sigh slightly, although the intensity of the struggle was lower than he thought, but the struggle had reached such a point. This time things are not going to be good.

Sure enough, immediately after the government meeting, many people came to see Wesser. Wei Ze did not hesitate to turn down all the requests of these people to meet. If the matter in the province is solved by stabbing Wei Ze here first, Levi will not have to do it. Even Weese's attitude was the same as Levi's, it was no different.

Ruan Xihao ran to see Wei Ze, but Wei Ze did. Ruan Xihao said excitedly: "Governor, now that things are so big, you have to say something." ”

Even if he knew that Ruan Xihao had played a big role in it, Wei Ze had to pretend not to know. He said frankly: "According to the system, I don't care about disputes between the provinces and the State Council. Once I'm out of the game, Levi won't have to do it. What else is he doing? The decision is no longer in his hands. ”

Ruan Xihao knew that Wei Ze was an understanding person, but he didn't expect Wei Ze's attitude on this matter to be so strongly supportive of Levi. Indeed, if Weeser intervened to mediate the conflict between Levi and the provinces, it would mean that Levi would soon step down anyway. But if Wei Ze does not come forward to mediate, according to the system, Levi is the superior of the provinces, and he can completely use his strong hand to suppress local affairs. For example, he can remove many provincial governors and propose to remove the provincial party secretary. At that time, Wei Ze, who was in charge of party affairs, could agree or disagree. It doesn't matter whether Weser agrees or disagrees, as long as Weser supports the relationship between the upper and lower levels of the current government, then Levi is in an invincible position. Qianfu refers to the end of nothing, this is a saying, and it must be Qianfu who can refer to Levi. Levi is unlikely to be re-elected as prime minister, and he has nothing to fear in this last term.

At this time, Ruan Xihao could only continue to work. He said, "Governor, you must have something to say at this time!" ”

Wei Ze nodded, "Xihao, you have followed me since I first came to Wuzhou and when I was in Wujia Town, and it has been more than thirty years now. We fought and worked together, and you've seen me a lot. It should be said that I have a certain understanding of me. ”

Hearing Wei Ze mention the past, Ruan Xihao was a little relieved and a little anxious. Indeed, he has a deep understanding of Wei Ze, so he knows Wei Ze's strength and ability. Not to mention anything else, Wei Ze is not an easily deceived person, and Ruan Xihao has to admit that even if Wei Ze looks at some curves at some times, it can always prove that Wei Ze took the most straightforward choice at that time when solving the problem. So Nguyen Hee Ho has never been able to deceive Wei Ze's self-confidence.

Wei Ze continued: "Since our brothers have become brothers and comrades, they are brothers and comrades in this life. There are bound to be contradictions when getting along, and there will be many times when you look down on each other, and even feel that the other party is sorry for you. At such a time, the table was lifted, and the brother did not do it. That is to say that the cause of these contradictions is that there are some problems, and we need to sit down and solve them. I'm a person who's been like this for decades, and I don't advocate overturning the table, brothers and comrades don't do it. I've always been an advocate of solving problems. So I can't come out at this time, and if I come out, it means that this table has to be restarted. What do you think? ”

Listening to Wei Ze's words, Ruan Xihao suddenly remembered a passage. Who said that paragraph, he couldn't remember clearly for a while, the gist of the words was to quote the words of Journey to the West, the second senior brother encountered difficulties, and when everyone argued and could hardly talk about it, he would make "Scatter the gang, the senior brother will return to Huaguo Mountain to be the king, and the senior brother Sha will return to the quicksand river to eat people, and I will go back to Gao Laozhuang to go home to see the Hunjia." Sell the white horse and buy a coffin for the master to send to the end". And Governor Wezedu would never have done that in his life.

Now I see that I was right. Ruan Xihao: They want to flip the table and take Levi down, and then come up with a new system to replace the old one. And Weser wouldn't have agreed to do that anyway.
