Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Oh, that's right. I decided to let you handle the restructuring of the Dahu Lighter Factory. To be honest, after I took over the Dahu Lighter Factory, I also made certain improvements according to your wishes. I printed some advertising slogans on the lighters as you said. This trick did play a certain role in the beginning. Some hotels and small businesses customized lighters from us one after another. But who knew that the good times didn't last long. This idea was soon learned by other lighter industries, and they followed suit. In this way, the high-priced share we originally occupied was taken back by others. Now the situation of the lighter factory is not optimistic, and it is also difficult. I thought, let this factory be handed over to you, because I believe that with your ability, you can run the lighter factory well and bring it back to life." Fang Xianzhi decided to go all out this time. As long as these factories can be saved and can bring benefits to the Dahu Factory, he doesn't mind competing for credit with others. In fact, as the head of a county, the county's economy has improved, so he will naturally have his own credit. By competing with others for credit, he is actually pushing the credit away.

Fang Xianzhi had thought it through thoroughly, and told all these words to Feng Sizhe. Hearing the county magistrate actively admit his mistakes, and being so generous to hand over all the work to him, and believing in his own abilities, and saying all the good things, if Feng Sizhe continued to shirk his responsibilities at this time, it would be really a bit unreasonable.

"Okay, since the county magistrate has said so, I will accept this." Feng Sizhe finally nodded. At this moment, he was not thinking about forgiving Fang Xianzhi for taking his job, but more about the people of Dahu County and the economy of Dahu County. After all, he was reborn and came to Dahu County again. He should do something to make Dahu County truly rich, so that it would not be in vain for him to come to Dahu County to work.

Feng Sizhe finally agreed, and Fang Xianzhi breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that the other person was just acting and putting on a show for him, and that he would eventually agree to his request, he still felt very excited when he heard that the other person had agreed in person. For some reason, he began to trust Feng Sizhe blindly, always thinking that since the matter was handed over to someone else, he would not have to worry about it anymore.

After a while, He Zhuhua, deputy secretary of the county party committee, came to Feng Sizhe's office.

He Zhuhua walked into Feng Sizhe's room with his head down. Facing this deputy county magistrate who ranked lower than himself in the county committee, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he did not come here to show off, but to humble himself.

"County Magistrate Feng, are you busy...busy?"

"Oh, it's Secretary He. Come, please take a seat, please take a seat." As soon as he saw He Zhuhua coming to his office, Feng Sizhe immediately showed a flattered look on his face. He stood up to greet him and asked him to take a seat.

The more polite Feng Sizhe was, the more embarrassed He Zhuhua felt. At this moment, he still hoped that others would be more arrogant, and it would be best if they would scold him a few times, so that he could complain to Secretary Sun and County Magistrate Fang with a lot of grievances, and at least someone would sympathize with him. But now Feng Sizhe's soft approach did make him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Don't be so polite, County Magistrate Feng. I'm here... to ask you to take over the Yongsheng Casting Factory. Please do me this favor no matter what. It's my beg..."

"What Secretary He said is all about revolutionary work. Why use the word 'beg'? Your thinking has always been right, and it is for the good of Dahu County. If there is anything wrong, it is the fault of Yuqiang Group. They breached the contract and suddenly withdrew their investment unilaterally. The responsibility should be on them, not you. It's not yours." Feng Sizhe waved his hand, as if he did not blame He Zhuhua.

He Zhuhua was speechless at this moment. Feng Sizhe was so generous, what else could he say? "Okay, then I thank County Magistrate Feng. If you need me in the future, just speak up."

At this moment, He Zhuhua also had some respect for Feng Sizhe in his heart. In fact, he had had such thoughts before, but because of jealousy, he did not have a correct mentality. Seeing that this person who was not as experienced and younger than himself was better than himself, he was a little dissatisfied, but after this incident, he thought it through. He had to look at the face of Yuqiang Group before doing things. He knew that they could not bring any benefits to Dahu, but he could not stop them, but had to cooperate with them. But the same thing happened to Feng Sizhe, but it was completely different. They could actually force Yuqiang Group to retreat and let them voluntarily withdraw from the territory of Dahu County. Based on this point, he was not as good as them. What else can be said? If you are not as good as them, you are not as good as them. There is no need to argue.

"Okay, Secretary He, I hope that we can unite sincerely in the future to build a better tomorrow for Dahu County. I believe that at that time the Municipal Party Committee will look at every comrade of our Dahu County Party Committee differently. It will not only be the local people who will benefit there, but I think all the people who work here will also benefit, don't you think?" Feng Sizhe also realized that He Zhuhua had spoken sincerely just now. He thought that struggle is to build a better tomorrow. If we can build a better tomorrow and create a better future, wouldn't it be a good thing without struggle?

It was at this moment that the attitudes of several major leaders in the Dahu County Party Committee towards Feng Sizhe changed greatly, because they all realized that Feng Sizhe came to Dahu County not to seize power, but to do things. Such a person could only bring them benefits, so why should they mess with their own future?

After He Zhuhua left, Feng Sizhe picked up the office phone on the table and dialed Duan Yunpeng's mobile phone number.

"Hello, this is Duan Yunpeng, who are you?" Duan Yunpeng's powerful voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Haha, Mr. Duan, it's me, Feng Sizhe!" Feng Sizhe said with a smile.

"Ah, it's Mr. Feng, haha, what's wrong? Is there something wrong? In my impression, you rarely contact me directly. Tell me, if you need me to do anything, just ask. As long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Duan Yunpeng has received a lot of favors from Feng Sizhe. First, he made a fortune from oil during the Gulf War, and then before the collapse of the Soviet Union, he got a lot of good things from there and made a fortune again. He even listened to Feng Sizhe and bought a piece of land in Kyoto early on and built a Great Wall Club. His business is booming now. Although it is not making a fortune yet, it is obviously profitable. At the same time, a few young masters found him and offered what he thought was a sky-high price to acquire the club, but how could he sell it when he was not short of money? This was his industry in Kyoto and a symbol of him, Duan Yunpeng.

Hearing Duan Yunpeng's impolite words, Feng Sizhe chuckled, "I'm not looking for you to do anything, but I have something good to tell you."

"Oh, good news, haha, I like it, I like it." Duan Yunpeng was so happy when he heard Feng Sizhe say it was a good thing. He knew very well that since Feng Sizhe said it was a good thing, it must be a good thing.

"Well, I remember you told me when we were having dinner together during the New Year that some original parts you got from the Soviet Union were always in short supply. You also wanted to open a foundry of your own, right?" Feng Sizhe asked with a smile.

"Yes, that's true. To be honest, I have visited some large foundries recently, but I was not satisfied with any of them. What's the matter? Mr. Feng, do you have any suitable places to recommend to me?" Duan Yunpeng asked excitedly when he heard this.

"Yes, I have found the place, and I guarantee it will be according to your requirements." Feng Sizhe answered bluntly.

"Oh? Where is it? Tell me, I will go there as soon as possible to take a look." Duan Yunpeng thought that the place Feng Sizhe introduced must be correct.

Feng Sizhe didn't keep the secret. He just laughed and said directly, "The location is in Dahu County where I work. What do you think?"

"What? Dahu County, that's a small county. Mr. Feng, are you sure?" Duan Yunpeng was stunned when he heard it was Dahu County. He was a little confused. He needed too many things, so he needed a big factory. But how much could a foundry in a small county produce? Wasn't this a joke?

"Of course I am not wrong. It is in our Dahu County. We have a Yongsheng foundry here. The place is very spacious and has the possibility of expansion. Of course, the most important thing is that I will manage it directly. I think you should be assured of my ability. I know that with your current strength, even if you set up a foundry, you may not have time to manage it, right? But it is different in Dahu. With me here, what else do you have to worry about? Besides, the policies here are very good. I have applied for a year of tax exemption for you. At the same time, the labor is very cheap, much lower than in first- and second-tier cities, so you can save a lot of capital in terms of costs. Although you are now a big family, you should also understand the truth that saving a penny is earning a penny. At the same time, Dahu County is adjacent to the borders of four provinces, and it can be said that the transportation is also very developed. In this way, if your industry is well done, you can save a lot of money no matter where you ship. Isn’t this good?"

Feng Sizhe listed the advantages of Dahu County to Duan Yunpeng one by one. Of course, he had not yet asked his superiors for the one-year tax exemption, but he believed that since Yuqiang Group could be exempted from tax for five years, it should be appropriate for him to apply for a one-year tax exemption. He was sure that his superiors would agree to this happily, and even agreed happily.
