Chapter 164: The Birth of the Leader 3

"Ahem!"

With two light coughs, Fan Wei's voice spread, and some whispered discussions in the audience stopped immediately.

"Hehe, everyone has been waiting for a long time." As the last one, Fan Wei, who is also the most competitive leader of Guizhou, spoke and attracted almost several times more attention than before.

This made Fan Wei a little nervous, and he smiled reluctantly, which can be regarded as an opening statement.

"I won't say anything more, just say that if I become our governor of Guizhou, some changes in our Guizhou." Reluctantly adjusted his nervousness, and glanced at Chen Mingren, Fan Wei's heart was slightly settled, and he looked at everyone.

"If I become the governor of Guizhou, the first thing I will do is to apologize to the people of Guiyang on behalf of our political axe, and compensate the people of Guiyang for some of the losses they suffered during the revolution." Fan Wei's first sentence was beyond everyone's expectations.

"The previous changes in Guizhou caused everyone the inconvenience, and I ask for forgiveness from the villagers, fathers and elders, that day frightened the family." Fan Wei then bowed to everyone in the audience on the stage, and this action immediately attracted Guo Chongguang, Ren Kecheng, Zhang Bailin and others in the audience, and the faces of the people in the audience changed slightly, which also made the people in the audience talk about it.

3 That night, the rest of the people of Guiyang were indeed frightened by the changes in Guiyang City, but after so many days, no one thought that Fan Wei would apologize to them for such a trivial matter. For a while, many people actually felt a little choked.

Knock, knock!

However, the buzz in the audience only lasted for a moment before it was interrupted by the sound of gongs and drums.

"At the same time, on the night of the change, Zhou Peiyi, the section chief of our police office, also discovered that some lawbreakers took advantage of the opportunity of our reform in Guizhou to loot many businesses in our Guiyang City by illegal means, bringing losses to these merchants. This part of the loss will be compensated by our new policy axe, and we will also investigate the criminal law of these scum mixed in the ranks of people with lofty ideals, and seek justice for everyone! Fan Wei bowed down, got up and continued seriously, and at the same time, his eyes swept over some people in the back of the Autonomous Society, intentionally or unintentionally.

This look swept over, making Chen Nansheng's face behind Zhang Bailin change suddenly.

Although there are many members of the Autonomous Society, the composition is complex, and some of the elders in it have unclean hands and feet, which is what Chen Nansheng knows. Chen Nansheng can't guarantee that these people didn't make some small moves in the process of action, who would have thought that now Fan Wei would actually rely on this method to win the hearts of the people.

Chen Nansheng immediately saw that in an instant, there were robbed merchants in the crowd who suddenly knelt down.

"Thank you Lord Dufu for calling the shots for us, thank you, Lord Dufu is the master of the blue sky!"

In several directions of the crowd, these voices of thanks suddenly sounded, and the people in the same place immediately looked at the kneeling shopkeepers with surprised and surprised eyes.

Guo Chongguang and the others couldn't help but look at the messy scene, and somehow, the uneasiness in their hearts became more and more intense.

"Don't thank you first, even if I, Fan Wei, can't be our governor of Guizhou, I will definitely take care of this matter, Guiyang is my Fan someone's home, and my Fan someone will never allow robbers to happen in our Guiyang." Faced with this sudden situation, Fan Wei's face on the stage also became solemn.

"This, Liqing ......" It's just that, in the face of this situation, Chen Mingren couldn't help but look at Chen Liqing, where could there be such an exaggeration?

"Ah, what, Daddy?" But Chen Liqing looked at his father's puzzled expression, but looked around blankly.

"It's fine." Chen Mingren glanced at the little son deeply, turned his head and continued to look at Fan Wei on the stage. And Chen Liqing couldn't help but stick out his tongue.

There is no way, this election is quite important to him, and some exaggerated arrangements are just for the sake of foolproof.

"The second thing is the tax issue mentioned by the previous president, here, I, Fan someone, promise to our 110,000 people in Guiyang that if we become the governor of Guizhou, the first decree I want to make is to cancel the grain tax on all our farmers in Guizhou! Our newly-built political axe will no longer demand a penny from our peasant brothers! Fan Wei on the stage continued to speak, but when his words came out, tens of thousands of people in the entire Grand Cross instantly boiled.

"What?"

"Wow, no taxes!"

"We don't have to hand in the food we have?"

It was boiling, as soon as Fan Wei's words came out, the whole venue resounded with a shout of surprise, and those people who didn't hear what Fan Wei said clearly just now also heard Fan Wei's declaration clearly when others were excitedly circulating, so they were also excited and shouted out in disbelief.

After a while, the entire Guiyang City seemed to shake, with discussions and surprises one after another.

And Ren Kecheng, Guo Chongguang, and even Zhang Bailin and other forces in the first row of the audience, when they heard Fan Wei's words for the first time, they all stared in disbelief.

And wait until a few seconds for them to react.

"Crazy, crazy, this Fan Wei really wants to be a governor and wants to be crazy, if he doesn't collect food taxes and doesn't collect money from below, even if he becomes a governor, if he doesn't have enough silver, who will do things for him." After He Linshu behind Guo Chongguang reacted, he looked at Fan Wei on the stage like a madman, and said undisguised sarcastic words.

"Yes, crazy, this Fan Wei is really crazy." Guo Chongguang clenched his fists and stared at Fan Wei fiercely. Listening to the buzzing discussion next to him, he already knew that today's position as governor was already in Fan Wei's hands.

"This Fan Wei, is he crazy, if there is no tax to support the finances, the entire political axe system will not work at all, as a master, it is impossible for him not to know this." By Zhang Bailin's side, Cai Yue also stared at Fan Wei, wanting to see what Fan Wei relied on to continue to support the operation of the system in all aspects without collecting taxes.

You must know that even if the literati no longer disdain to talk about money, they also know that officials from all walks of life are also human beings, and the most basic thing for people is to eat. And if you don't have money, what do you eat?

The bulk of the government's finances basically come from two aspects, on the one hand, the central financial budget allocation, and on the other hand, the tax revenue from all sides. Now that Guizhou is reading, the central government's finances have been cut off. And if the tax is cut off again, it is foreseeable that even if Fan Wei succeeds in becoming the governor, it will not last long.

It's just that Ren Caiyue, Zhang Bailin and others would not think that Fan Wei would not rely on food taxes anymore, but on the Chen family, specifically, they would rely on various commercial taxes in addition to food taxes and money earned from commercial exports.

Chen Liqing has a super farm, in which all kinds of staple foods and vegetables have appeared, and the problem of food is no longer a factor that plagues the development of Guizhou. Relying on the abundant grain reserves, Chen Liqing's initial plan was to build Guizhou into a huge factory to produce all kinds of primary and intermediate products, which were sold throughout the country and overseas. As long as Guizhou's production kingdom is formed, the financial expenditure will no longer need to be collected from the people, and only from this aspect can development be truly for the country and the people.

The 20th century has just begun, and it is a great period of consumption of raw materials and primary products, so we only need to grasp this point and feed the people of Guizhou. Relying on this model, Chen Liqing has successfully freed the 100,000 people in Pingyue from food and clothing and slowly moved towards a well-off life. Now it's just to expand this model to the whole of Guizhou Province, so why not?

Looking at the surprised and stunned expressions of Ren Kecheng, Zhang Bailin, Guo Chongguang and others, the Chen family's eyes invariably turned to Chen Liqing. If they hadn't known Chen Liqing's idea, I'm afraid they would have been as surprised as these people. In the face of everyone's gaze, Chen Liqing touched his nose helplessly.

Naturally, the election is still going on, but after Fan Wei threw the bombshell of exempting agricultural taxes, everyone knows that today's election results have come out.

However, the surprise of Guo Chongguang and others is not limited to this.

"In the end, if you choose me Fan Wei as the governor, I, Fan Wei, finally promise you that within three years, every household in Guizhou will eat white rice at every meal. If there is still a family that can't eat white rice in three years, I, Fan Wei, am willing to apologize with death! ”

"And during my tenure, if none of the above I said is done, everyone can oust me Fan Wei at any time, and I have no complaints."

Fan Wei ended his speech, but as he walked off the stage, there was no applause from the audience. The people below have been carried into endless reverie by one blueprint after another drawn by Fan Wei. It wasn't until Zhang Xianmo announced that the voting had begun, and the people came back to their senses.

When voting, Zhang Bailin, Ren Kecheng, Guo Chongguang, Fan Wei and others came to the stage again, and in front of them, there was a huge basket. The 100,000 people below will be given a copper coin each, and then the organizers will organize them to come to the stage one by one, and whoever supports will throw the copper coin into the basket.

The process was simple, but it was a long process, with 100,000 votes lasting from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. And when it was over, the basket was directly weighed in front of everyone, and the result was obvious.

And as a result, there was naturally no suspense - the basket in front of Fan Wei was naturally the heaviest. (To be continued.) )
