Chapter 258: Capital and Power (18)

…… Compared with the increasing number of industrial varieties in Guangdong, the supply and quality of vegetables in Guangdong have not improved significantly in terms of type or quantity, including quality......

…… The explosive growth of industrial products is due to state-led investment, and the market is spread across rural and urban areas, and the more populous areas are the key sales areas. Vegetables are very simple for the market, that is, densely populated cities without a lot of open space to grow vegetables......

…… After the vegetable market was monopolized by the underworld, in order to maintain a high enough selling price, the total supply did not reach the level of fully satisfying the demand, but the price was maintained at the highest possible level, which proved that the monopoly market will inevitably bring about a relative shortage of supply, and the inflated price will greatly damage the interests of consumers while bringing huge benefits to the market controllers......

…… Therefore, it is advisable to implement a free market competition mechanism for the vegetable market......

Zuo Zongtang, Wei Changrong, Wang Mingshan, and Pang Congcong read the article sent to them by Wei Ze, which was based on Zuo Zongtang's "Guangzhou Vegetable Basket Project" design. The text is full of Wei Ze's personal style, and Zuo Zongtang's text is still used to get rid of the traditional literati's language, which is very different from Wei Ze's "pure modern Chinese" words and sentences.

Everyone's attention was not focused on this small issue, and everyone was surprised that Wei Ze seemed to have completely seen what was happening in Guangzhou, although the original draft was written by Zuo Zongtang, and it was written in depth. The advantage of Weizer is that it can put forward a solution more systematically and comprehensively, and more theoretically.

The most important thing is that Wei Ze proposed a "construction that only needs to be tried", that is, the government will sell the land, sign an agreement with the farmers, and grow vegetables. The purpose of this part of the vegetables is to combat the situation when vegetable farmers spontaneously join forces to raise the price of vegetables, and the government invests low-priced vegetables to combat this situation.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Since we want to develop a market economy, we must oppose monopoly. It doesn't matter if the monopoly comes from the government, the triad or the vegetable farmers. Because the purpose of the market economy is to maximize profits, Comrade Zuo Zongtang's report has explained how monopoly can achieve this monopoly interest with the highest efficiency...... "Wei Ze explained the meaning and purpose of state-run vegetable cultivation very thoroughly.

Zuo Zongtang is very respectful of Wei Ze's face, he knows that his cognitive level is far less high than Wei Ze, when Zuo Zongtang saw the internal laws of social operation and went to study it, Wei Ze had already condescendingly looked at Zuo Zongtang's efforts at a higher level. At this time, Wei Ze also attributed part of the glory to Zuo Zongtang, which is really polite enough.

"Since this is the case, let's start to try to establish a vegetable basket project in Guangzhou. If the effect is good, then start to implement it in the whole province. "Wei Changrong proposed to build yƬ. Although Wei Changrong is now only the secretary of the Guangdong Political and Legal Committee, he can preside over the meeting, and Wang Mingshan, secretary of the provincial party committee, and Pang Congcong, the governor of the province, including Zuo Zongtang, do not feel that there is anything wrong with this, let alone that it is inappropriate.

Wei Changrong finished this thorny incident related to the people's livelihood and asked Zuo Zongtang, a deputy director-level cadre of the Civil Affairs Bureau and the "commander-in-chief of the Guangdong Vegetable Basket Project", to handle the matter. He left Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong behind, "Are you two going to leave after completing the purge work later, or are you going to leave now?" ā€

This topic is just right at this time, because the Strike Hard campaign in Guangdong has only just begun, and the important thing is not to deal with all kinds of bad elements. The most important thing is not to show the problem of clan underworld this time, the clan underworld is definitely not unique to Guangdong, let alone a special product of Hailufeng and Chaoshan areas. Guangxi's clan underworld is the area of "high mountains and mountains" in the whole country, and it is only stronger than Guangdong. More than ten years ago, when Wei Ze and Wei Changrong lived together in Guangxi, they were undoubtedly outstanding representatives of the clan underworld.

Both Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong are well aware that the important problem that Wei Changrong pointed out was the collusion between officials and local forces that were uncovered in Guangzhou. The public security bureau colluded with the underworld, and the government departments cooperated with various underworld forces, and this time the revelations of this kind of things were far more than imagined.

For the sake of money, in order to facilitate the conduct of some inconvenient things for themselves, the degenerate elements in the government quickly chose their lackeys and thugs. This is by no means a phenomenon unique to the city of Guangzhou, and there is such a problem in the whole of Guangdong. Wei Changrong is the person who will take over as secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, and as the saying goes, there are three fires for new officials to take office, and purging these people should be Wei Changrong's important work in the near future. This job is long and the tasks are heavy. At best, it will delay the time for Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong to enter Beijing and ascend. To put it badly, this aspect will make Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong's faces gloomy, and it will also make the two of them accumulate great resentment.

The purge of officialdom is to offend too many people, and Wei Changrong's identity, qualifications, and relatives are unmatched among adults in the whole of China. The people who were purged dared to be angry with him at most, but that anger was real, and the direction of venting was naturally directed at Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong.

"We ......" Pang Congcong was silent, and even Wang Mingshan couldn't go on after only half a sentence.

Wei Changrong didn't say anything to think about again, seeing Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong's embarrassed faces, he smiled happily: "Since this is the case, then we will do our best to elect the next governor, and you can go to Nanjing to take office quickly." It's also very stressful to work over there. ā€

Although they knew that the long breath was actually not polite to Wei Changrong, and they showed even more timidity, Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong couldn't help but breathe a long breath. Although the two of them are not shallow in their qualifications and experience, the situation they are facing in front of them is far beyond their normal psychological capacity. Looking at Wei Changrong's calm look, the two admired from the bottom of their hearts.

When things come to this point, it is naturally Wei Changrong who is in charge. But Wang Mingshan, who thought he had been able to unload a thousand catties of heavy burden, never expected that the next governor of Guangdong Province that Wei Changrong liked would be Hu Zhijian. Although several months have passed, Wang Mingshan still remembers his discussions with Levi vividly, and Levi's attempt to meddle in the personnel arrangements in Guangdong Province made him extremely unhappy. Originally, Wang Mingshan did not have a high evaluation of Hu Zhijian's work ability, but now Wei Changrong actually took a fancy to this person, even if he suspected that there was any internal power transaction behind this, Wang Mingshan still raised objections.

"Comrade Hu Zhijian's work ability is limited, and we have also asked him to work in the economic and civil affairs departments, but he is very mediocre, and the comrades do not have a high evaluation of him. I don't think it's appropriate for him to take over as governor. Wang Mingshan said simply and straightforwardly. After expressing his opinion, Wang Mingshan also looked at Pang Congcong, hoping that his old partner could express his objections.

Pang Congcong showed an expression that was a little similar to a toothache, and she said: "Secretary Wei, Comrade Hu Zhijian was still able to complete the work after you gave him clear and clear instructions. I don't deny that. However, if Guangdong wants to continue its development, it is faced with many situations that it has never encountered before, and in previous discussions, Comrade Hu Zhijian's expression really cannot be called outstanding. There are many comrades who have ideas and abilities in their work. ā€

"As far as I'm observing, you're right." Wei Changrong also frankly agreed with Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong's evaluation of Hu Zhijian, "As far as I can see, Comrade Hu Zhijian has never formed a gang, let alone any economic problems. Although his ability is not strong enough, it is not to the point where everyone can't bear it, right? ā€

Wang Mingshan did not object to Wei Changrong's evaluation of Hu Zhijian, but he opposed Hu Zhijian as governor, Wang Mingshan said firmly: "I personally think that what Guangdong needs now is not Comrade Hu Zhijian as governor......

Wei Changrong interrupted Wang Mingshan's words, "Now Guangdong needs to go all out to develop the economy for the time being. ā€

This sentence made Wang Mingshan unable to say the following words. Wei Changrong is right: As long as the purge continues, Guangdong will not be a simple issue of continuing to develop its economy and making the province with a stronger economy. At a stage of full-scale turmoil in officialdom, it is enough to be able to keep the economy from falling.

Seeing that Wang Mingshan was silent, Wei Changrong continued: "A stage has a main task at a stage. I have also observed the comrades mentioned by Mingshan who are good in terms of work ideas and work ability, they are all excellent, and I am also very relieved to have them in charge of specific work. But at this stage, what I need is someone who is not involved in some interests. Moreover, after observing Comrade Hu Zhijian, I feel that he is indeed rather lacking in appeal and convincing. However, I have some suspicions that some departments do not have a high opinion of Comrade Hu Zhijian, and perhaps part of the reason is that Comrade Hu Zhijian is blocking the path of some interest groups. Therefore, I think that some of the evaluations of Comrade Hu Zhijian may not be objective. ā€

Pang Congcong has never taken the initiative to speak up, and now Wang Mingshan doesn't dare to speak up. At least a few cadres in the public security system who did not have a high evaluation of Hu Zhijian were found to have problems, but those comrades who had no problems had no bad evaluation of Hu Zhijian. From this point of view, Hu Zhijian's ability assessment may not really be as bad as those people say.

Thinking back to the past, Wang Mingshan suddenly remembered the allusion of his great-mother's throwing. "Warring States Policy 61 Qin Ce II" has this story.

In the past, Zeng Zi was charged, and Fei Ren had a person with the same name as Zeng Shen, and when he killed someone, he sued Zeng Zi's mother and said: "Zeng Shen killed!" The mother of the great-son said, "My son does not kill anyone." "Weave freely. There was a moment, and people said: "I have participated in murder!" "His mother is still weaving freely. After a while, one person told him again: "I have participated in murder!" His mother was afraid, and threw herself over the wall.

The husband believes in the sage of Zeng Shen and his mother, and the three of them doubt it, and the mother can't believe it. The sage of today's ministers is not as good as Zeng Shen, and the king's letter and ministers are not as good as Zeng Shen's mother's letter Zeng Shen, and the suspicious ministers are not special three, and the ministers are afraid of the king's vote.

In fact, there are only three or five people who say bad things about Hu Zhijian, and the others are just simply evaluated as not having high ability. Wang Mingshan had a mustard in his heart, and coupled with his own observations, he had no sense of identity with Hu Zhijian at all. Of course, Levi's lobbying made Wang Mingshan feel that Hu Zhijian had a serious problem. In the course of the purge in Guangdong, Hu Zhijian was still not found to have any connection with various degenerate elements, and this result surprised Wang Mingshan.

For the previous questions, Wang Mingshan may still have some self-reflection, but Wang Mingshan really can't self-reflect on the latter questions. But the problem behind it is something that Wang Mingshan will never dare to tell Wei Changrong that he knows. Levi may be evil, but after all, he is Wang Mingshan's old boss, and Wang Mingshan does not dare to go to the object of hostility.

After struggling in his heart for a while, Wang Mingshan finally said: "I really have no experience in this matter, so please ask Secretary Wei to make a decision." ā€

Pang Congcong was anxious for Wang Mingshan to say this, and as soon as Wang Mingshan expressed his attitude, Pang Congcong immediately said, "I support Secretary Wei's opinion." ā€
