rebirth of change

Secretary Shao and Mayor An left. Before leaving, it stands to reason that Chen Kangjie should have at least some interaction with them out of politeness. However, considering his own status, Chen Kangjie held back. He couldn't shake hands and talk to others without introducing them. Wouldn't it be even more impolite for her own identity?

"Boss, Commissioner Huang has been very busy recently. He doesn't have time to congratulate you. The old man asked me to convey his best wishes to you. I've already said the good thing, so I've completed the task." Sit down Afterwards, Ouyang Zhenhua sat on Chen Kangjie's right hand side, the host's groom Tang Sen sat on his left hand side, and the others sat casually. As soon as they sat down, Chen Kangjie completed the tasks entrusted by others first.

The member Huang mentioned by Chen Kangjie was Huang Zhenhua, the State Councilor in charge of foreign affairs. As a relative, Tang Sen had invited Huang Zhenhua, although it was unlikely that leaders of their level would come in person, but etiquette must be fulfilled. Plan, Huang Zhenhua intends to come here. Anyway, during the National Day, after the first three days, there will be less work. Moreover, Tang Sen's status today is no longer comparable to that of the small staff in the Ministry of Metallurgy. His visit can deepen the relationship between the two families. Huang Zhenhua is going to retire after finishing this term, and leaving some network resources will be of great benefit to his descendants.

But Chen Kangjie's horizontal insertion made him receive a big task, so he was restrained and couldn't come.

In fact, there is one thing that Chen Kangjie has always wondered. Huang Zhenhua has never been a diplomat, but has been working in the local area. After he was promoted to a state councilor, he should not be in charge of diplomatic work. nondescript.

Through the conversation with Zhao Zhibang this time, Chen Kangjie finally knew the reason.

What Huang Zhenhua is doing is a transitional job, which is a gift from Wei Hua. The foreign minister and the leader of the foreign affairs leading group are both from Weihua. Huang Zhenhua is sandwiched between them, in fact, so that Zhao Zhibang has a source of diplomatic information. Channels to help him quickly understand diplomatic work.

In this way, Huang Zhenhua didn't understand any more, so he could only rush to the shelves and learn while doing. What was a little better was that the deputy foreign minister in charge of the Asia-Pacific was nominated by Zhao Zhibang, which was a good help and supplement for Huang Zhenhua. Anyway, Huang Zhenhua is in a semi-retired state, and he can do a little bit. For him, the deputy state-level treatment is more important. This is very important for a ministerial-level politician, at least in name. National leaders.

From this point, Chen Kangjie deeply knows how bloated our country's institutions and personnel are, and the ratio of officials to people has reached the highest peak in history.

Statistics show that the ratio of officials to citizens in the Western Han Dynasty was still 1:7945, which means that the total number of officials in the entire country did not exceed 6500. There are more than 103 people. According to records, the total number of officials in a large county in the Han Dynasty is only more than a hundred, but the population exceeds 60. This record has gradually changed with the development of history. During Tang Gaozong, the ratio of our officials to people reached 10 : 1, that is, 3927 people support an official. During Yuan Chengzong's reign, this number was changed to 3927:1. In Ming Shenzong's era, this number was about 2613:1. According to the historical records we can find today, the ratio of officials to people in Kangxi's reign was about 2299:1. It is the highest, about 900:2. At present, there is still a lot of controversy about the total population of the country during the Kangxi period. Many people think it has exceeded 1.5 million, while some think it is less than tens of millions. It is only generally acceptable According to the number of 170 million people, there were nearly [-] million officials at that time.

But now, we have as many as 4000 million civil servants and cadres of enterprises and institutions (and many contract workers) who eat our finances. What a terrifying concept. To support an "official", what a burden the common people have.

We often hear calls for streamlining institutions, better troops and simpler administration, but it is strange. The number of people supported by taxpayers is decreasing. The number of institutions may decrease, but the scale of institutions has increased accordingly. This is tantamount to changing Soup does not change medicine.

In the same period, Japan’s government-to-people ratio was 1:150, France’s was 1:164, and the United States’ was 1:187. Even the country of Thousand Islands was several times lower than ours, 1:98. It seems that our government is really The most important thing is to represent the interests of the broadest masses of the people, and really serve the people wholeheartedly, as if ordinary people don't know how to spend money, and they don't know how to spend money, and they are asked to help them spend.

Some people may have different opinions, but just look at our three public funds. If it is not fully disclosed, it can be as much as hundreds of billions, which is equivalent to an average of 1 yuan for each public official in addition to his salary. , and many ordinary people at the bottom may only earn [-] a year. In fact, we can understand that he can earn [-], but the other [-] is spent by others.

Feeling uncomfortable, Chen Kangjie could only sigh, as Zhao Zhibang said, politics is all-encompassing, and to solve it, it must be resolved through economic means. Even if he has money, so many people ask him to support him, he also can't afford it. Of course, as an outsider, Chen Kangjie still doesn't know how deep the water really is and how big the obstacles will be.

Although Chen Kangjie said he didn't want to drink, he still couldn't escape after all. After sitting down and chatting for a few words, Tang Sen stood up and toasted him to thank him. The ancient house in Jiangdu is used as a wedding gift for Tang Sen.

Jiangdu is a thousand-year-old city, and large-scale urban construction has only started for a few years. Many ancient alleys and houses are still temporarily preserved. Thinking that there is no shortage of Tangsen, I arranged for someone to buy a 400-square-meter courtyard left over from the Qing Dynasty. give it to him.

"This hospital may only be worth 200 million yuan now, but ten years from now, I'm afraid it won't be able to buy it for 1000 million yuan." This is the evaluation given by Ouyang Zhenhua.

In fact, Ouyang Zhenhua didn't even know that according to the soaring rate of housing prices in the past few years, this kind of antique courtyard, let alone 1000 million, 2000 million can be bought, it is very cost-effective.

After being fed by them all, Tang Sen's wife Ren Yingshu came back supporting Tang Sen's parents.

Although Tang Sen was his subordinate, in front of his parents, Chen Kangjie was not casual at all, he kept the etiquette of the younger generation, and took the initiative to respectfully respect the two old people who were looking forward to having grandchildren.

For others, Chen Kangjie can keep his identity, but for Tang Sen's parents and wife, he can't. Otherwise, what would he do here.

When she found out Chen Kangjie's identity, not only Ren Yingshu was surprised, but even her parents who had retired for several years were also surprised. They didn't know what Tang Sen said in his parents' ears. After hearing this, the two old people were polite. After a few words, he left in surprise and gave up the venue to them.

"What did you tell your uncle and aunt? Why did they leave after hearing this?" Chen Kangjie was curious.

"It's nothing. There are quite a few guests outside that I don't know. I want them to say hello." Tang Sen said evasively with flickering eyes.

"Hehe, it's that simple, who are you fooling, the eyes of the elders are not as cunning as yours." Chen Kangjie didn't believe it.

"Jie Shao, don't ask, he must have told his uncle and aunt that you are his boss." Ouyang Zhenhua interjected.

Ouyang Zhenhua also drank a lot of wine, otherwise, he would not be so direct.

"No, no, I just said that in terms of work, I also listen to Master Jie's arrangements." Tang Sen hastily argued.

At the same time, everyone present looked at Ouyang Zhenhua and Chen Kangjie with surprised eyes. Although each of them had guessed before, they were all confident that their guesses would not be too outrageous. However, Ouyang Zhenhua Saying so in public is another matter.

Ouyang Zhenhua also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and was a little dazed, looking at Chen Kangjie with some shame.

"What are you doing looking at me like that? What's the point of talking after drinking? You guys, hurry up and punish each of us. Look, how embarrassing we are. Drink, drink, whoever is lazy, brother Ouyang, the year-end assessment, Just give him a disqualification, what do you think." Chen Kangjie patted the table lightly and pointed around one by one.

Chen Kangjie covered it up without admitting or denying it. Anyway, everyone knows it well. He did this with two other meanings, that is, don't spread rumors. People will be punished, there is no harshness, there is no black face to bluff others, and the meaning is expressed easily.

All the people present were smart people, and their comprehension ability was not ordinary. Under Chen Kangjie's gaze, everyone filled the wine glasses in front of them, lightly touched each other and killed them in one gulp.

"Sister-in-law, turn around, tell your friend that I'm not targeting her. If I want to help her down, I mainly think that her boyfriend is unreliable, that's why I messed up. If she didn't bring me in Come on, if she's not your classmate, I won't bother to talk to her, that Shen is too utilitarian, your classmate will not be happy if he follows him." Chen Kangjie drank more than a dozen glasses of wine, and his mind was a little dizzy He was sinking, but seeing Ren Yingshu, he still kept awake.

"Thank you. I will definitely tell her when I have the chance. I didn't expect you to be so caring, Young Master Jie. I thank you on her behalf. Tang Sen, come, let's toast Jie Shao." The ability is really good.

"I don't care if the two of you get drunk, don't delay your entry into the bridal chamber, if you are drunk, then our group of people will be guilty." Chen Kangjie said so, but his hands that had already let go He was not idle, picked up the bottle and poured wine for them.
