Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Feng Sizhe wanted to retain them, and Tian Liang and Tong Qingyi decided that they still had to save face, so they immediately gave up the plan to withdraw the company, and only transferred some of the staff here and streamlined the organizational departments here.

Feng Sizhe seemed to have seen through what kind of person Zhu Zitong was. He suspected that he would not do business honestly like the Great Northeast Agricultural Company. In fact, Zhu Zitong really had an idea. After obtaining the seed and fertilizer distribution rights for Lianhua City's agriculture, he asked the company's financial staff to calculate the account according to the current quotation. The final result made him very dissatisfied.

Naturally, the profits from seeds and fertilizers could not come as fast as those from real estate. After the total account was calculated, not much money was made. Moreover, 30% had to be given to Zuo Bing, which meant basically losing money. As a businessman, he knew very well that a business that loses money should not be done. In order to prevent this work from becoming a burden on Jiaye Real Estate, Zhu Zitong came up with a solution, which was to buy some inferior fertilizers and seeds to supply Lianhua City. In this way, the cost was reduced, which meant that the account could be settled.

After Li Hui received instructions from Zhu Zitong, he imported some uninspected fertilizers and seeds from some unlicensed factories and brought them to Lianhua City. He then sold them to Lianhua City at the price of the best products.

All these things were done without Che Zaichao's knowledge. Although Li Hui is very close to Secretary Che now, he dare not tell him about this. In fact, he wanted to run the business here well at the beginning. After all, although real estate is profitable, there are too many people engaged in this industry and they are under a lot of pressure. For the future, Jiaye Real Estate has to think of other ways out, and agricultural development in Lianhua City is one of their ideas. But now due to various circumstances, they have done this kind of behavior that is truly a bad businessman.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

In the mayor's office, Feng Sizhe was listening to the report from Xiang Feng, secretary of the Huanan District Committee.

"Boss, the seeds and fertilizers are everything, just as you imagined, there are problems." Xiang Feng said as he handed a test report to Feng Sizhe's desk.

Looking at the inspection report, Feng Sizhe had a stern expression. He had thought about it before. With Zhu Zitong's personality, he might not be as honest as Tian Liang and Tong Qing. He might play tricks on the products provided. So, he asked Xiang Feng to keep an eye on it. In this regard, Xiang Feng was experienced.

In fact, sometimes Feng Sizhe also hoped that he was just being cautious and judging others. He also hoped that this was what he thought and hoped that the other party would not do this. However, the facts told him that his thoughts were not redundant. Some people really began to fool him in this way. And, to be clear, they were not fooling themselves, but were fooling the millions of farmers in Lianhua City.

"Tell me, what's the specific situation?" After just taking a look at the inspection report, Feng Sizhe asked Xiang Feng.

"Boss, after inspection and identification, it has been confirmed that these seeds and fertilizers are not the highland seeds we need, but ordinary plain seeds. This kind of seed itself saves a lot of money compared to highland seeds. If these seeds are really planted in the ground, it is very likely that the yield will be reduced by more than half when there should be a good harvest. And those fertilizers are mixed with a lot of useless things. These things are mixed in just to deal with the weight. This is what unscrupulous businessmen do. If they are used without inspection, it will have a great impact on our Lotus City’s agriculture in the first and second quarters, and will directly affect the economic income of my Lotus City." Xiang Feng himself did not say much, but every word was to the point.

"That's how it is. Then what do you think we should do?" Feng Sizhe asked Xiang Feng testingly.

"Boss, my meaning is very simple. I want to announce this matter to the public. I firmly believe that the eyes of the masses are sharp. We should all come together to punish them for such things." Xiang Feng said firmly. He believed that if someone joked about the economic method on which they depended for survival, all the citizens of Lotus City would not allow it.

Xiang Feng's idea was very direct, but it was not the best solution. As the saying goes, the arm cannot twist the thigh. When the interests of the people touch the power of authority, it is likely that the former will suffer. This matter must be carefully considered. Feng Sizhe thought for a while, "How about this, let me think about this matter, and you don't tell anyone about it. Wait for my news."

After Feng Sizhe said this, Xiang Feng had no choice but to nod. He also believed that Mayor Feng, who had always worked for the country and the people, would not allow such things to continue to develop.

After Xiang Feng left, Feng Sizhe locked himself in the room for more than half an hour. Then he picked up the phone and called his secretary Chen Guangming, asking him to prepare a car as he was going to the provincial capital.

When Feng Sizhe went to the provincial capital, he did not immediately go to the provincial party committee leaders, nor did he report the substandard seeds and adulterated fertilizers to anyone, but went directly to Hua Lao's home. Hua Lao had wanted to go to Lianhua City many times to see what had changed here, and this time Feng Sizhe came to invite him over.

Old Hua was naturally very happy about Feng Sizhe's invitation. Old Hua, who had served as the executive vice governor of the provincial party committee, understood that Feng Sizhe asked him to go to Lianhua City to speak for him. He also knew a little about the political struggles in Lianhua City after Xia wanted to leave. He still admired Feng Sizhe very much. He even mentioned it to Governor Du Shengzheng when he had the chance, saying that Feng Sizhe had to deal with the struggles and manage the economy of a city, which was too difficult. But whenever he talked about these, Du Shengzheng shook his head helplessly. Although he understood Feng Sizhe's current situation, he really couldn't help. He knew who looked down on Feng Sizhe and wanted to use him to make trouble. Although he was the head of a province, his background and ability were far from those who were against Feng Sizhe. For this reason, he could only play a supporting role and help Feng Sizhe within his ability. There were some people he couldn't offend.

At Mr. Hua's home, Mr. Hua formally accepted the request to go to Lianhua City. Perhaps he had retired and no longer had such concerns, anyway, he decided to go to Lianhua City on behalf of Feng Sizhe to check out the shops.

It’s just a pity that Du Shengzheng cannot come to Lianhua City with Hua Lao for various reasons, which is somewhat disappointing.

The fact that Feng Sizhe went to the provincial capital to invite Master Hua to come to Lianhua City was soon known by the Lianhua Municipal Committee. After all, the staff still had to do some preparation work before Master Hua came here. Che Zaichao learned about this situation under such circumstances. When he heard that Master Hua was coming, Che Zaichao laughed.

Sun Hui, who was standing in front of Che Zaichao, saw that his leader was not afraid but laughed out loud, so he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Secretary Che, Mr. Hua is obviously here to show off to Feng Sizhe, why are you not nervous but happy instead?"

After laughing for a while, Che Zaichao looked at Sun Hui and said, "What? Can't figure it out?"

"Yes, I really can't figure it out." Sun Hui's sensitivity to politics is poor, and his strength is just to flatter the leaders. Che Zaichao knew this before, but what he needed was not a very capable secretary-general of the municipal party committee, but an obedient secretary-general, so Sun Hui was able to do the job.

"Haha, then I'll tell you, Feng Sizhe's request to invite Elder Hua this time was fake, and his real purpose was to invite Governor Du to come. After all, everyone knows the relationship between Elder Hua and Comrade Du Shengzheng. Unfortunately, although he invited Elder Hua, Governor Du did not give him face. Or maybe Governor Du knew the situation in Lianhua City and knew that Mayor Feng and I were not on good terms, so he was unwilling to get involved in this matter. That's why only Elder Hua came, but Governor Du did not come. What does this mean? Doesn't it mean that Governor Du does not support Feng Sizhe? Isn't this worth laughing at?"

"So that's how it is. Does that mean that no matter what Secretary Che does to Feng Sizhe in the future, Governor Du will not speak for him?" Sun Hui finally understood a little at this point and asked tentatively.

"Well, you are right. This is basically the situation. Haha, okay, we only invited Mr. Hua this time. I want to see what Feng Sizhe is going to do." Che Zaichao looked like he was waiting to see a good show, but he had no idea that there were problems with the seeds and fertilizers provided by Zhu Zitong. He also didn't expect that he was obviously sent by the Zhu family, but in the end, the people who would ruin his own show would be the Zhu family.

Feng Sizhe and Hua Lao rode in the same car. At the same time, Governor Du called some people from other departments directly under the provincial government to cooperate. In this way, there were several cars, forming a formation, and heading straight for Lianhua City.

Along the way, Feng Sizhe introduced to Old Hua the changes in the current Lotus City and talked about the differences from the previous Lotus City. This made Old Hua nod his head and praise that the current Lotus City was indeed not the same Lotus City as before.

The car finally arrived at the highway junction to Lianhua City, where Che Zaichao had been waiting with a group of leaders from the Lianhua Municipal Party Committee and Government. Although he knew that Mr. Hua was here to support Feng Sizhe, Che Zaichao still pretended to be unaware of the situation. This alone showed that he was quite cunning. It was not easy to guess the mentality of a person who could greet someone who might cause trouble with a smile.

As for Mr. Hua, he also smiled and shook hands with Che Zaichao and other comrades one by one. On the surface, it seemed that at least Mr. Hua was here just to take a look and was not going to give any instructions. In fact, this was also Mr. Hua's idea. He thought that the main purpose of his coming to Lianhua City, in addition to looking around for changes here, was to meet with some old comrades in Lianhua City, comrades who had retired like himself, and to talk to them from the side to let them support Feng Sizhe's work. This was enough. As for having a direct conflict with Che Zaichao, he really hadn't thought about it. He also knew that he was a retired person. If there was nothing that had to be said, it would be better not to have any conflict with Che Zaichao. Otherwise, I'm afraid that someone would say that as an old cadre who had retired, he not only didn't know how to pass on knowledge, but also liked to find trouble everywhere, which would make him wrong.
