Chapter 43: Tianfen Strategy (2)
The next morning, Chen Yongcheng drove the three of them to the VIP entrance of the train station, and Hu Wenkai looked around in the VIP box of the train, it was the first time for him to sit in such a luxurious VIP box. There are only six purple velvet sofas in the spacious carriage, which is covered with a thick carpet. Tea and snacks are placed on the coffee table in front of the sofa in an orderly manner.
Hu Wenkai stood in front of the car window and looked at the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River outside the window, the canal sailboats were shuttling, the buffaloes were plowing the fields in the fields, the ox carts were walking slowly on the paths, and the little daughter-in-law of the family by the river was squatting there and beating the clothes with a beating stick. Hu Wenkai said to Wang Xihai beside him that China is in a short period of tranquility, and in the near future, those politicians under the banner of democracy and freedom and national awakening will destroy all this, and if you go to the north, you will see hell on earth, there are parents on the roadside who let their children sell their own flesh and blood, and there are mothers and daughters who are in the same brothel, because of the war, a large area of land is barren, and human life is like a mustard.
Wang Xihai let the tears he said flow out, and said in a choked voice that his uncle's family of six was in Hebei because of the war, and none of the family was spared. His family fled to Shanghai in order to escape from Changmao during the Boxer Rebellion, and his uncle's family was reluctant to leave because of the land.
Lao Yi said with deep understanding: "Boss, our lives are only safe in our own hands, don't look at your current family and those who have an army, you are an ant." ”
"Everything can not be rushed, Lao Yi, Wang Xihai before the New Year's Day of the company first organized a 10-person security team, known as the factory guard. This matter must be kept secret, the personnel must be screened, and the two of you are fully responsible. Hu Wenkai said cautiously.
He told Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng about that night to these two people, and Wang Xihai's face turned white with fright. Lao Yi's fist clenched white, and foul words came out of his mouth: "Damn, boss, why didn't you shoot him that night and dare to threaten you." ”
"Lao Yi, you are confused, they all have backstage behind them, and there is not so much hatred that must end his life." Unexpectedly, Lao Yi was very violent and wanted to kill people directly.
Wang Xihai said: "Manager Yi, Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng personally went to the boss's office to write a letter of guarantee, I think they are afraid to death." However, it is difficult for these people to entangle them, and the people of Shanghai are afraid of their green gang. ”
Hu Wenkai looked at them and said: "This matter can only be known by you, and it cannot be leaked, these people will be in trouble if they want to spread their face, so I don't want others to know, especially Carrotta." ”
Lao Yi thought of something and said, "Boss, you Wuwei, one person picked a nest of hooligans." ”
Hu Wenkai said to himself: "Take your time, you must have your own strength." ”
Lao Yi held Hu Wenkai's hand tightly and said, "Boss, we must have our own strength, otherwise we will be slaughtered by others at that time." ”
Hu Wenkai took out his hand and patted him and said: "Take your time, get the turf first, this trip to Nanjing is to get the turf, and we must make overall plans." ”
"Lao Yi, go to Wang Hu's office Wang Xihai and follow me, Lao Yi, you stay outside as an entourage." Although he didn't understand why, Lao Yi didn't have any reproach for Hu Wenkai's words, and nodded in agreement.
After eight hours of travel, the train arrived at Nanjing Xiaguan Station at two o'clock in the afternoon, and after leaving the station, the three of them recruited three rickshaws to rush to the provincial capital. Before arriving at the gate of the provincial government, Hu Wenkai found the doorman and threw him a pack of cigarettes, asking him to inform him that Zhang Jingjiang's friend in Nanxun had brought a letter asking to see him. After a while, the doorman came to pick up the letter and asked them to wait in the communication room first.
It didn't take long for a man in his forties who looked like a secretary to come over and ask who Zhang Jingjiang's friend was, and took Hu Wenkai and Wang Xihai inside.
Wang Hu is an old man in his fifties, with a long beard and a waistcoat that is very old-fashioned. Hu Wenkai stepped forward to hold his hand and said in worship: "Finally, I will see the idol of the country, the first governor of the province." "Thousands of wears and wears sycophants, but Hu Wenkai has the essence.
"Haha, Xiaoyou has turned up the old man's old things." Wang Hu happily touched his long beard and said.
Hu Wenkai said from the bottom of his heart: "Governor Wang recruited thousands of homeless poor children in Sichuan, provided food and clothing, taught skills, and established a factory for poor children. I admire Governor Wang's ability to fundamentally solve the problems of street children's lives, rather than giving street children a few meals to eat. ”
"It's over, that's what the old man should do. Come and sit down and say, "Wang Hu's heart is happy, he is a person who doesn't care about money, only about fame."
Hu Wenkai did his homework last night, and he knew that it was too much. After sitting down, he began to work in a businesslike rhythm, took out the title deed and permission and handed it to Wang Hu. After looking at it, Wang Hu got up and walked to the map of the province on the opposite wall and ticked the location with his hand. Hu Wenkai said that this is it, and then he took out the Haimen County Development Plan from his bag and handed it to Wang Hu.
Wang Hu nodded and said, "It seems that you are very well prepared, you drink tea first, and I will read your plan." After saying that, he flipped through the plan behind his desk.
Seeing that half of his hands began to knock on the table involuntarily, he picked up the phone and asked the secretary to summon the director of finance and the director of business to come to the office and continue to read the plan. After reading it, he said to Hu Wenkai: "Mr. Hu, if you can really build a factory as planned and fulfill your promise one by one, the old man will be the first to stand up and support you." ”
Hu Wenkai knew what he wanted to say, and answered his doubts for him: "Governor Wang, our company will invest a huge amount of money in building an iron and steel plant, power plant and port in Haimen County. ”
Wang Shan raised her head and lifted her reading glasses: "Oh, you can do this, I don't have any problem with this, you have the title deed and permission to start construction, there is no problem, as for the overall development of Haimen County mentioned in your plan, I need to get the approval of the council." After discussing with the two directors of the department, I will give you the following endorsement in the name of the provincial government. ”
"Then there is the governor of labor, and our company's commitment to the plan will definitely be realized." Hu Wenkai once again expressed his determination to cheer Wang Hu in disguise.
Wang Shan and the two directors went to the next conference room with the plan to discuss, and they were invited into the conference room about an hour later. The two directors grabbed the hand of the God of Wealth and almost dragged Hu Wenkai to the sofa, Hu Wenkai knew that the temptation of finance and taxation was unstoppable, but he didn't expect the temptation of this period to be so huge. He didn't know that the provincial government had almost no fiscal and tax revenue, that the tariffs were divided by several countries and used to repay the loans, that the agricultural taxes could hardly be collected, and that the small agricultural taxes that could be received were stuck in the county-level governments. Can there be this financier who said that he would give an additional tax of 500,000 yuan, and he could not offer Hu Wenkai as the God of Wealth.
Wang Hu couldn't resist the temptation of Hu Wenkai's extra finance and taxes, and with the constant instigation of the two directors, the three of them initially came up with a compromise plan in the conference room. In the name of the provincial government, a township near Lusigang was separately set aside for the management of Xingye Industry, on the condition that 3,000 local farmers should be recruited within two years, and no land should be forcibly expropriated. In addition to the fiscal tax that the township government should have paid before, an additional 100,000 yuan of fiscal tax will be added to the provincial government.
The local government does not interfere with the normal operation of the township except for the intervention of criminal and civil cases, and the provincial government supports the construction of ports and factories in the township and gives the township the final decision on industrial production. In addition, when the parliament approved Haimen County to give management to Xingye Industry, Xingye Industry increased the fiscal and tax of 500,000 yuan to the provincial government according to the original county fiscal and tax base. Hu Wenkai looked at the agreement written by Wang Hu and the two directors and said, I have two small additions.
The two directors said, "Mr. Hu, you say what you say." ”
Hu Wenkai was embarrassed and said: "Our company has invested more than 10 million yuan according to the estimate, and if there are no security personnel to guard the factory and maintain the order of the port, the company will not be able to produce smoothly." Another point I hope the provincial government will not interfere in the construction and management of the port. ”
After the three of them pondered for a while and whispered, the director of the Department of Finance said: "Mr. Hu, this needs to be solved by yourself, and the township will let you manage it, and we will not let the province help you maintain law and order." In this way, Governor Wang has approved you a name for a militia group, and you will solve the personnel and port construction and management by yourself, and we will attach a clause to it, and we will not interfere with you. It's just that when will your 100,000 yuan arrive? ”
Hu Wenkai saw that things were completely as he wanted, and after thinking about it for a while, he said that if we can finish the matter today, I will ask the director of the department to send someone to Shanghai with us, and we will give 100,000 yuan tomorrow. The Jiangsu Provincial Government is so poor that it can't be revealed, Hu Wenkai doesn't know anything about it, he thinks that Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and the rich people in the whole country can think of being so poor.
Wang Hu asked the secretary to ask the chief of the police department to come to the scene to work and give Hu Wenkai the letter of appointment of the Chinese People's Congress. Here's the side sent someone to ask the speaker of the Jiangsu Provincial Assembly to come over and sign together.
While sitting and waiting for someone, Hu Wenkai said: "Governor Wang, I brought you a gift, please rest assured that it is definitely not a bribe, this gift can be opened in front of the two directors." ”
"Nephew Hu Xian, the old man hates corruption and stolen goods the most, don't let the old man look down on you, you bring in the gifts, and if you say the money in front, I will drive you out immediately." Wang Hu said coldly.
The two hall directors looked at Hu Wenkai with reproachful eyes, thinking to themselves What kind of gift do you know this Qing official who wants to save face. Hu Wenkai nodded at Wang Xihai and stretched out two fingers, and Wang Xihai walked out of the door to find Ivanov to get a gift. After a while, Wang Xihai came in with two wooden boxes. Hu Wenkai took a wooden box and handed it to Wang Hu and said: "It's not valuable, but it's more practical and practical, a 1911 pistol and fifty rounds of ammunition, and give it to the governor for self-defense." ”
Although Wang Hu is not a martial artist, he loves guns, and he can't put it down with a swarthy blue pistol, so he casually handed it to the staff around him and asked him to put it in the office drawer. Haha laughed and said, "Wen Kai bothered. The other one is for whom? ”
"I just heard that the governor invited the speaker to come, so I can't be empty-handed, and send the other one to the speaker." Hu Wenkai said generously.
"Bring it, I'll help you give it to him. If he doesn't sign, he doesn't want it. Wang Hu reached out and took the wooden box in Wang Xihai's hand and put it on the chair behind him.
The police chief and the speaker of the parliament entered the conference room at the same time, and Wang Hu motioned for the secretary to take Hu Wenkai and Wang Xihai out of the conference room and let them study the matter. Soon half an hour later, the secretary invited Hu Wenkai into the conference room, and the speaker was playing with a pistol in his hand. There were two documents on the table, and Wang Hu said that if you look at it, there is no problem, and it will be stamped and effective.
Hu Wenkai looked at the document, one of which was issued by the provincial government, which assigned Tianfen Township near Lusigang to the management of Xingye Industrial in duplicate, with the signatures of Wang Hu and the speaker of the parliament plus three department heads. There is also a letter of appointment appointing Hu Wenkai as the head of the Tianfen People's League, which bears the signatures of Wang Huhe, the speaker of the parliament, the head of the police department, and the official seal of the provincial government and the official seal of the police department. After Wang Xihai stamped the first document, Wang Hu put the document into a file box and handed it to the director of finance, saying that he would give it to him after the 100,000 yuan arrived tomorrow, and it was estimated that they would come again in a month to re-sign the document. The speaker added that the first thing to do when the parliament meets next month will be the matter of Haimen County.
Without further ado, Hu Wenkai said goodbye to Wang Hu and others, and took the evening train back to Shanghai with the director of finance, and arrived in Shanghai early the next morning, and immediately rushed to the company to let Lao Shi remit 100,000 yuan to the account in Jiangsu Province. At noon, a banquet was held at the hotel to entertain the finance director, and after giving a lot of gifts, the finance director poured out the truth, Haimen County is very poor, and every year the provincial government has to pay money to Haimen County, even if Hu Wenkai does not give money to the provincial government, as long as he promises not to want money from the province, it is estimated that Wang Hu will agree, and besides, Hu Wenkai is building factories and ports in Haimen County, and Wang Hu and his gang are very optimistic about this matter. In the past, Sheng Huairen's land deed was half sold and half given away so that he could invest in and set up a factory, but now the province is eager for Hu Wenkai to take over Haimen County, and it is estimated that it will be ironclad for the parliament to vote for it. The province passed the legal process of reporting to the Beiyang government for sealing, and it was over.
Hu Wenkai couldn't believe that the matter would be resolved so smoothly, and he was most happy that he had been deceived by him into obtaining the official approval of the militia group. Sent the director of finance back to the company, Lao Yi thought that he had been deceived by Jiangsu Province this time, Hu Wenkai despised him, and he said that he didn't know that he had won a lot of benefits. The three sat down in Hu's office, and Hu explained to them the significance of the militia group.
The militia is the government that allows you to have legal arms, raise your own funds, gather your own people, and equip yourself with guns to maintain local social order. The Tianfen militia is the armed force of Xingye Industry and the strength of the company. It only costs 100,000 yuan for a township to be placed under the management of the company, and the company's factory has a profit of more than 100,000 yuan in two months. You can't understand the benefits for the time being, land and manpower, you can get such cheap human resources and cheap land in Shanghai?
Lao Yi gradually figured it out, rubbed his hands and said, "Boss, this is where we are based, it's worth it." ”
Hu Wenkai said: "Don't be too happy, a few of you foreigners can't show up in public for the time being, and even if you want to show up, you can only claim that you are technicians hired by the company." It will take a year for you to be officially identified. ”
"Why?"
"The boss is afraid that the people of Haimen County don't understand and think that they have been colonized by foreigners, who calls you a foreigner," Wang Xihai explained.
"Oh, if it's not public, it's not public, as long as it's a company, it doesn't matter."
"Wang Xihai, you go and rent a good passenger ferry, and go to Lu Si to inspect on Friday, and inform the middle-level person in charge of the company to go with the employees with a college degree or above. Check the weather first, and postpone it if the weather is bad. Hu Wenkai commanded.
Closing the door, Hu Wenkai paced back and forth in the office, and read: "I, Hu Wenkai, am the head of the township, and I am the head of the security regiment." Excitedly, he smoked cigarette after cigarette and fell asleep on the couch.
