red power

() Following Zhou Tao to Zhou Tao's office, Zhou Tao seemed a little absent-minded.

At the meeting just now, Wang Lianchang messed up the situation by talking big and small, and then Deputy Mayor Bu Kangri said a few words about the disadvantages of this kind of direct election. After all, voters will not really understand the ability of the candidates. What about our society? For the time being, there is no channel to enable voters to have an intuitive understanding of each candidate, to recognize his strengths and to recognize his weaknesses at the same time.

Therefore, this kind of election may become a friendship vote, that is, to vote for people you know.For example, Comrade Wang Lianchang just said, among our deputy mayors other than Mayor Zhou, why is Comrade Lu Zheng the most likely to be elected? Because he has been in Wushan for a long time, and he has worked in the National People's Congress, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and other departments, and has contacted the most potential voters. Friendship votes may also be the most.

After Bu Kangri talked about it, Zhou Tao didn't bring up the topic just now, so it was temporarily let go.

Lu Zheng was very grateful to Bu Kangri in his heart, after all, he was an old acquaintance, and it was a relief for himself, saving Zhou Tao from having a lump in his heart.

As for Wang Lianchang, Lu Zheng patted him on the shoulder at the end of the meeting, but nothing much happened.

Maybe now Wang Lianchang will feel a little regretful in his heart. He originally just stabbed Zhou Tao, but he accidentally put Lu Zheng in, which caused too many people, so it's not a matter of breaking the can.

Perhaps Zhou Tao was somewhat influenced by Wang Lianchang's words. He sat on the sofa and asked Lu Zheng after a while, "Do you think it's inappropriate to conduct a pilot direct election?"

Lu Zheng nodded slightly: "It doesn't matter how the pilots are carried out, but if this kind of pilots are everywhere, I think it will weaken our party's leadership. This is a matter of principle."

Zhou Tao was silent and nodded slowly.

On the third floor of the municipal government office building, Lu Zheng convened a meeting with the heads of agriculture, commerce, industry and commerce, urban construction and other departments, preparing to investigate the construction of the largest melon, fruit and vegetable wholesale base in eastern Hebei in the suburbs of Wushan to serve Wushan vegetable farmers.

Lu Zheng pointed out that Osan’s city is expanding rapidly, and our metropolitan strategy has just taken shape, but the peasants did not instruct them in this vigorous reform. We are building a modern international city, but we must not forget Farmer brothers who pump blood for our urban construction.

According to the spirit of the latest municipal party committee document, various regulations to reduce the tax burden on farmers in Wushan will be issued in the near future, and we must also do a few practical things for the economic development of Wushan rural areas.

When Lu Zheng was speaking, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and an old man with white beard and hair rushed in angrily. Several staff members followed in with embarrassing expressions, but they didn't dare to really stop him.

The old man was Huang Lao, a former member of the Wushan Advisory Committee who enjoyed the treatment at the deputy ministerial level. At this time, he looked full of anger, leaning on a walking stick, and trembling with anger.

Lu Zheng hurriedly got up, "Old Huang, why are you here?" He immediately said to the participants in the conference room: "Okay, let's rest for 10 minutes, and then discuss freely."

Get up in a hurry, come to Huang Lao, whisper: "Huang Lao, I have something to do, come to my office to talk."

With a sullen face, Mr. Huang raised his arm and moved away from Lu Zheng who wanted to help him. It seemed that his stomach was full of anger.

Lu Zheng felt strange, he really didn't know where he had offended Mr. Huang.

Huang Lao kept his face sinking like water, entered Lu Zheng's office, sat on the sofa angrily, and didn't say a word.

Lu Zheng poured a glass of water for Mr. Huang, sat opposite Mr. Huang, and said earnestly: "Mr. Huang, I am young and ignorant. Maybe I have done something wrong. Please criticize, but if it is an outside rumor, You also give me a chance to defend myself, okay?"

Seeing the sincerity in Lu Zheng's eyes, Mr. Huang finally let out a long sigh, "The world has really changed. I have been a revolution all my life. I am approaching my old age. I saw that our Wushan pawn shop has opened again. It's great. A capitalist, a pawn shop!" Okay, it’s all over again. We old guys have also half-stood into the loess. I just don’t know how to tell them when I saw my old comrades-in-arms. Did you tell them that your blood was shed in vain? Really, really..." Speaking, Huang Lao was so angry that his body began to tremble again, and his walking stick poked the ground.

Lu Zheng suddenly realized that he came here for a pawn shop. Just a few days ago, after several cities in the south, the first pawn shop in the north——Wusan Jinli Pawn Service opened.

"Old Huang, don't be angry, this pawn shop is under the supervision of our government and the people..." Before Lu Zheng finished speaking, Huang Lao rolled his eyelids: "Don't use these words to deal with me. What's going on? know better than you"

Lu Zheng smiled wryly and said nothing after a while, "Old Huang, why did you think of looking for me?"

Mr. Huang snorted: "Feng Guiping, he will focus on party affairs and general direction, and he can't manage the pawnshop business; Zhou Tao, you are in charge of the development of industry and commerce. If I don't ask you, who will I look for?"

Now, half of Huang Lao's anger is due to being pushed around like a football. Although in just two or three years, Huang Lao's influence has not been as good as before, Feng Guiping and Zhou Tao don't seem to buy him.

Lu Zheng pondered: "Actually, the pawnshops of today are really different from the pawnshops of the old society. The pawnshops of the old society were described in our textbooks as vampires who blackmailed the poor, but the pawnshops of our new society are mainly for small business owners. Providing short-term loans to self-employed individuals is a healthy supplement to our financial services.”

Mr. Huang smiled sarcastically, "Zhengzi, you think I'm getting old, and you're starting to fool me, don't you? What short-term loans? I think it's usury and it's legal to do so."

Lu Zheng was silent, honestly, the pawnshops of the later generations are actually operating usury business, using private financing or even bank loans to lend money to outsiders.

Huang Lao sighed deeply again, "Zhengzi, have you ever thought that there is also a problem of symbols here, and you too. In our textbooks, the pawnshops in the old society were used by local tyrants and bullies to exploit the poor." , They are all vampires. Now, we have turned around and sat in the world. What's the matter? The pawn shop dropped a flower gun and came back? Then what is the difference between our country and the past? I think, in this way, pornography, gambling and drugs will come back. Now, just There are signs of this."

Lu Zheng slowly picked up his teacup to drink water.

At this moment, Mr. Huang leaned on the sofa a little tiredly, "Maybe, it's just that I can't turn this corner, old man, I'm really old.

Lu Zheng put down his teacup, "Old Huang, you have a certain point in what you said. In this way, after I finish this meeting, I will instruct the relevant departments to seal it."

Mr. Huang nodded wearily, it seemed that he didn't have much to say.
