Chapter 560 Nine Good Generals Are Hard to Find

Xue Xue was so pleasantly surprised that she couldn't help but grabbed Li Yi's arm and asked, "Li Yi, you didn't lie to me?"

Li Yi said with a smile: "I won't lie to you if I lie to anyone.

Xue Xue said, "Didn't you just say yes, the most important thing a politician should learn is to lie?"

Li Yi laughed and said: "You are a fast learner. Between the two of us, don't talk about politics, right? That's how the 6000 million yuan came from, of which 1000 million yuan was allocated by the central government, and the other 5000 million yuan was obtained from Yang Wentian. It’s here for you. You have 6000 million, enough to do a lot of things, not just the reform of the soda plant, you can also use the money to do other things. In this way, your people in Jiangzhou Prestige can also be established.”

Xue Xue said: "I'm an imposing mayor, but I have to rely on money to establish my prestige? Isn't this a failure?"

Li Yi said: "No. There are two kinds of power in this world, one is the control of financial resources, and the other is the control of human resources. This is what people often say is powerful, rich and powerful. Possession. Money and power are both the ability to control resources. As the mayor, you have the ability to control money and power. But this kind of ability still depends on you to fight for mother and control. Because resources It is limited, but there are many people competing for it. Whether you can control these two resources in the end, and how much you can control, depends on your means and capabilities."

Xue Xue said: "Li Yi, it's so profound. I feel that you have explained everything about being an official."

Li Yi smiled and said: "I just vulgarized the principles of being an official. In a big way, it is serving the people and making contributions to the country and the nation. In a small way, it is a job. But in a popular way, when Officials, just to pursue greater power!"

Xue Xue said: "According to what you're saying, the reason we become officials is to gain power?"

Li Yi said: "You may not agree with me. But you have to understand a truth, no matter how high your ideals are, no matter how big your heart is, if you don't have power in your hands, you can't do anything, and you can't do anything Yes. You think I have a good idea of ​​the reform of state-owned enterprises, right? If I were just an ordinary citizen, or an ordinary government official, would my ideas be realized? Even if I said it, who would listen? Who would Will it be implemented? Today, if I don’t carry the title of director of the National Enterprise Reform Office, is it my turn to preside over today’s conference? Can these ideas and ideas of mine be realized?”

Xue Xue nodded silently, agreeing with Li Yi's opinion.

Li Yi said: "Sister Xue, Yang Wentian is under our control now. Although he won't be very helpful, he will still help you with general issues. As long as you make good use of this chess piece, you will be able to do so soon in Guangling." has a place of its own.”

"Li Yi, thank you, you have done so much for me that I don't even know what to say." Xue Xue looked into Li Yi's eyes and said sincerely.

Li Yi smiled and said: "You really plan to thank me? Then give me a kiss!"

Xue Xue's pretty face turned cold, and she said, "Okay, call Sister Lin Xin over first, and let her be a witness!"

Li Yi waved his hand: "You are so boring! You don't want to kiss me, what are you doing holding my hand?"

With a cry, Xue Xue quickly let go of Li Yi's hand, her pink face turned red, and she said, "Li Yi, don't think about it, I was just too happy just now."

Li Yi smiled and watched Xue Xue leave.

Back at the hotel where he stayed, Li Yi lived on the seventh floor, while Jiang Zhaonan and his entourage lived on the eighth floor.Wu Dongfang and other people from Jiangnan Province were all on the seventh floor.

When Li Yi passed by Wu Dongfang's room, Gan Mingjie, Wu Dongfang's secretary, came out and said, "Comrade Li Yi, Governor Wu has a request."

Li Yi snorted and asked, "What does Governor Wu want from me?"

Gan Mingjie replied bluntly, "Wouldn't it be clear if you come in and ask yourself?"

Li Yi thought to himself, judging by Gan Mingjie's expression, he is clearly waiting for me to come back here, what is he looking for me for?

Wu Dongfang's secretary had never been able to get along well with Li Yi. Seeing Li Yi standing still, he urged impatiently: "Comrade Li Yi, come in quickly! Governor Wu has something to ask you for!"

Li Yi said: "I'm sorry, please tell Governor Wu, Chief Jiang is looking for me, and I have to report to him first. I'll come back to listen to Governor Wu's instruction!"

Gan Mingjie said: "Comrade Li Yi, isn't this your excuse?"

Li Yi frowned and said, "I don't understand what you're talking about!"

Gan Mingjie said strangely, "Li Yi, you don't want to see Governor Wu, so you deliberately made up an excuse and refused to come in, right?"

Li Yi said in a deep voice: "Am I so boring? Governor Wu is my superior leader. If he calls me, how can I evade for no reason?"

Gan Mingjie said: "You also know that Governor Wu is your superior leader, I thought you'd already lost your composure!"

Li Yi took two steps, stopped when he heard the words: "Secretary Gan, I can sue you for defamation! In terms of administrative level, I am higher than you! Is your attitude towards the superiors?"

Gan Mingjie was at fault, but because he was Wu Dongfang's secretary, he had always had a sense of superiority since he took office. Looking at the leaders at the prefecture, city and bureau levels below, they all pretended to be like grandsons, full of good words, and gave away money Another gift, just to let Gan Mingjie arrange a time to meet Wu Dongfang.

For a long time, Gan Mingjie developed an inexplicable sense of superiority.

This inflated sense of superiority caused Gan Mingjie to place himself in the wrong position. He also felt superior to others in front of Li Yi, and he was always bossy when he spoke and acted.

As everyone knows, he made the wrong wishful thinking.In Li Yi's eyes, he Gan Mingjie is just like the fox in Hujiahuwei. Although he walks in front swaggeringly, he is just a sham, not worth mentioning.He always thought that others were afraid of him, but he didn't know that they were only afraid of the big tiger behind him.If one day, this tiger can no longer bite people, or this fox is no longer favored, he will die a very miserable death!

On the one hand, Li Yi is used to seeing this kind of person's face, and on the other hand, he really never put this Gan Mingjie in his eyes!Therefore, his words were not taken seriously at all.

Gan Mingjie was not willing to admit defeat, and continued: "Li Yi, you are here now, come and listen to Governor Wu's talk first, and it will not be too late for you to go to Chief Jiang."

Li Yi said coldly: "The chief's work is more important, or the work of Governor Wu? Secretary Gan, are you confused? You don't even know the priority?"

With that said, Li Yi strode forward.

Gan Mingjie shouted resentfully: "Li Yi, you ignore Governor Wu so much, you will pay for it!" But Li Yi went further and further away without even turning his head.

Gan Mingjie was so angry that his mouth was crooked, and he walked into the room.

Sitting on the sofa, Wu Dongfang saw Gan Mingjie coming in and said, "You don't need to say anything, I heard what you just said."

Gan Mingjie said: "Governor Wu, this Li Yi has such a great style! How dare he not even come to your summons!"

Wu Dongfang said in a deep voice: "Go and see if Li Yi really went up there."

Gan Mingjie nodded, expressing his understanding. As soon as he came out, he saw Yang Wentian sneaking over, as if he wanted to enter Wu Dongfang's room.Gan Mingjie came in too fast just now, and forgot to close the door. Yang Pingwentian had already poked half of his head in, poking inside there.

Gan Mingjie stretched out his hand and said, "Who are you? You can't get in here, go away!"

"Secretary Gan, hello, I'm Yang Wentian, secretary of the Guangling Municipal Party Committee, and I'm here to report to Governor Wu, please let me know." Yang Wentian said with a smile.

Gan Mingjie said in a low voice: "Governor Wu is not in a good mood these days. I don't see any visitors."

Yang Wentian smiled and took out an envelope, and quickly stuffed it into Gan Mingjie's suit pocket while he was unprepared, and said, "Secretary Gan, please pass me a message. Governor Wu will decide whether to see you or not? Governor Wu If you don't see me, I will turn around and leave immediately, and I will never embarrass Secretary Gan."

Gan Mingjie reached out and took out the envelope, squeezed it lightly in his hand, then weighed it slightly, and then he knew the approximate amount of money inside, and made a gesture to Yang Wentian's arms: "Governor Wu is very busy, I really don't have time. Yang Secretary, why don't you come back another day?"

Yang Wentian's visit to Wu Dongfang this time was also an excuse, and he also wanted to mend his relationship with Wu Dongfang.Yang Wentian is a person who is used to being in power, and he doesn't want to be subject to Li Yi and Xue Xue forever. Today at noon, Li Yi made a fuss about it. He lost face and lost money. The more he thought about it after returning, the more angry he was, so he wanted to Find Wu Dongfang to see if there is any chance to make up.

Seeing that Gan Mingjie returned the envelope, Yang Wentian didn't accept it, nor was he discouraged. He firmly believed that in this world, there were not many people who really didn't care about money. It was just a matter of price.

Yang Wentian took out an envelope again, stuffed it back into Gan Mingjie's pocket together with the envelope, and said in a low voice: "Lei, please pass it on to Secretary Gan. Yang is very grateful."

At this time, Wu Dongfang had heard voices outside, and said, "Mingjie, what's going on?"

Gan Mingjie went in and reported: "Governor, Comrade Yang Wentian is asking to see you."

Wu Dongfang said: "Let him in."

Gan Mingjie came out again and invited Yang Wentian in.

Yang Wentian thanked Gan Mingjie, straightened his collar, and walked in.

Wu Dongfang sat on the sofa, tilted Erlang's tui, and looked at Yang Wentian coldly.

Yang Wentian bent slightly, stood in front of Wu Dongfang, and said, "Governor Wu, hello. I'm here to apologize."

Wu Dongfang sneered and said, "Crime? Why are you guilty?"

Yang Wentian said: "Governor Wu, I'm guilty, and I've come here to plead guilty to you, please punish me!"

Wu Dongfang said: "Punish you? You are now a big celebrity in front of the chief. How dare I, Wu Dongfang, dare to punish you?"

Yang Wentian broke out in cold sweat, and said: "Governor Wu, there is nothing between me and the chief, it's all a misunderstanding, really a misunderstanding! Governor, I have been with you for so many years, what am I doing?" How dare you offend the chief! It's really Wu Hui. Everything was started by the He family. My daughter has already broken off her engagement with the He family, and I have also cut off contact with the He family. Please also governor For the sake of my loyalty in the past, please spare me this time."

Wu Dongfang said: "Forgive? Don't dare to do it! It's good that Secretary Yang can spare me! You have a chief guarding you, who dares to touch you? Hehe, you're promising!"

Yang Wentian said: "Governor Wu, I..."

"Get out!" Wu Dongfang suddenly shouted sharply.He was worried that he had nowhere to vent the anger that Li Yi brought to him, and it happened to be all on Yang Wentian.

Yang Wentian is also a prince!He came to apologize in a low voice, but he was so angry that he couldn't attack on the spot, so he had to endure it, turned his head and walked out. The moment the door closed, he vaguely heard Wu Dongfang curse: "What the hell!"

Yang Wentian felt a rush of energy and blood rushing straight to his head, clenched his fists, and then slowly relaxed, sighed softly, drooped his head, and walked slowly.

Besides, Li Yi, he really wanted to report to Jiang Zhaonan on the progress of the reform of the soda factory, but it was not as urgent as he said. It's just a blow to Gan Mingjie's arrogance.

Li Yi came to the eighth floor, reported to the head of Jiang Zhaonan the reform of the soda plant, and presented the reform plan.

Jiang Zhaonan looked at the plan seriously, and said, "Li Yi, look at your attitude, 1000 million is not enough, right?"

Li Yi said with a smile: "I have my own way about money."

Jiang Zhaonan smiled and said, "Okay, it's really hard to find a good general like you!"

Li Yi asked with concern: "Is the chief's health better?"

Jiang Zhaonan shook his head slowly and said, "I can tell you the truth, my back still hurts."

Li Yi said: "Please take care of your health, chief, and go back to Beijing to recuperate first!"

Jiang Zhaonan said: "It's not easy to come out for a trip! It's not appropriate to just go back like this."

Li Yi said: "Chief, Guangling's conditions are relatively average. I implore the chief to return to Jiangzhou temporarily and rest in Jiangzhou for two days. Let me handle the matter of Guangling. When the matter here is over, I will accompany the chief to the southern province. .”

Jiang Zhaonan laughed and said, "You are more verbose than my secretary and secretary-general, and you still manage people!"

Li Yi said: "Please take care of your health, chief. Your body is concerned about the happiness of more than one billion people!"

Jiang Zhaonan pointed to Li Yi, and smiled: "Okay, with you watching in Guangling, I will go to Jiangzhou to rest for two days without worry. Li Yi, I will give you a task in these two days, you must do it." Finish."

Li Yi said respectfully: "Please show me the chief."

Jiang Zhaonan said in a deep voice, "Find out the real reason behind Qiu Xiangfeng's death!"

Li Yi said in surprise: "Qiu Xiangfeng? Didn't he fall to his death in Macau? What's the inside story?"

Jiang Zhaonan said: "It's not that simple. Li Yi, you have worked in the Commission for Discipline Inspection, I believe you will find out the real reason."

Li Yi said: "Chief, it's not my turn to take care of the investigation!"

Jiang Zhaonan said: "Those who can do more work, Li Yi, don't refuse anymore! Your old subordinate, Comrade Ren Ru, will come down to help you."
