Chapter 354 A thorn who tells the truth
Except for this stupid young man who drank foreign ink, who here doesn’t understand the smiling young master in front of him?
He is a ruthless character from the bottom of his heart who kills without blinking an eye.
Who dares to contradict him will risk his life?!
Zheng Kun was frightened so much today. One wave was over but another wave started up again. He fainted and still wouldn't give up.
He broke out in a cold sweat again. Not only did he use his eyes but also his body cues. He gently crooked his old friend with his elbow a few times, in order to get him to stand up, apologize and say something soft.
But Liao Yunpeng was indifferent and ungrateful, and vowed to carry out the conflict to the end.
This made Zheng Kun so anxious that his face turned pale, and the stars were shining in front of his eyes. He didn't faint because he was mentally strong.
When he saw that Liao Yunpeng was ignoring him, he had no choice but to look at Chen Tianhua pitifully, and was about to stand up and apologize, but was forced back by a sharp look from the other party.
Who is Chen Tianhua? He is a time traveler of later generations. His worldview, cognition and understanding ability are naturally incomparable to those in the late Qing Dynasty.
Moreover, his mind is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
When he first arrived, Liao Yunpeng did not flatter him, but spoke frankly.
No matter what, he still dared to speak out and could point out the core of the problem. Such talents were rare in the late Qing Dynasty.
As the chief executive of a region, he must not only consider issues related to the immediate interests of the people, but also be responsible for Chen Tianhua, the lord and boss.
Once the majority of farmers find that their way of life has been cut off, the energy that will burst out under the control of people's desire for survival is extremely terrifying.
What this guy said was the truth, but his words of advice were off-putting.
"Mr. Liao dares to speak out, and I am very happy. But please rest assured, sir, since I have requirements for the people, I will have preferential treatment conditions to match. After all, the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people is involved, and I can't
Not considered, decided after careful consideration.”
"After the establishment of the organization, we will first conduct a census and issue a certain living subsidy to each person in different needy households. In addition, we confiscated the ill-gotten wealth of local wealthy people some time ago. This year and the first half of next year, all people will
It’s not a big problem if we have adequate food and clothing.”
"The autonomous region will immediately start infrastructure construction, and a considerable amount of idle labor can be invested in economic construction. This not only solves the problem of labor required for construction, but also increases the income of this farmer in a redirected manner."
"As for what can be grown in the soil here? We can ask agricultural experts to prove it. I will not take care of this in detail, but I will fully support it. Economic development is a matter for your autonomous region's political affairs committee."
"I'm just a governor-general appointed by the imperial court. My family doesn't have much money, and my financial resources are not very generous at the moment. The little money I get from these guys is really not enough. We need to spend money everywhere, but there is one thing I can guarantee
, all the money collected will be used here, and if it is taken from the people, it will be used for the people, and I will not take away a penny."
Chen Tianhua's eloquence is absolutely top-notch, and he can talk about every point of view eloquently. He also patiently explains a lot of truth and makes unprecedented promises.
This kind of commitment is like a military order. Whether it is in the past life or in this life, it has become a habit for him.
But for these people in front of me, this kind of promise is particularly harsh, and its weight is too profound.
Is it necessary for a dignified court official, a powerful figure with a distinguished background, who holds the power of life and death, to put down his tactics and swear an oath and guarantee with ordinary people in front of him?
"As far as I know, the local gentry listed by your Excellency are extremely wealthy. Their combined wealth has assets of tens of millions of taels of silver and many minerals. What's wrong, Commander?
Guarding the gold and silver mountains, why are you crying for poverty here with us?"
Chen Tianhua could be so polite to the corporal, but Liao Yunpeng not only did not appreciate it, but also pretended to be surprised and said with a smile.
Damn, this guy is so brave. Does he think that if a graduate of Harvard University is a specially invited talent standing here, nothing will happen to him?
If you dare to say this to your face, it's like slapping the boss in the face!
It's simply too presumptuous!
After hearing this, Xu Yunyuan and the others, in addition to having sulky expressions on their faces, secretly felt sorry for this big thorn they had never met before.
Song Xiaoniu and other guards who were standing in the corner of the wing were so angry and nervous that they put their hands on the handles of their swords. They only waited for a word or a look from their lord before they stepped forward and cut this ignorant bastard into pieces.
Zheng Kun was so angry that smoke was rising from his head. He had been sweating just now, but now he was sweating again, which made him regret a little. He had recommended this big prick in the first place.
"Brother Yunpeng, you are too presumptuous, why don't you get up and apologize to the commander!" Zheng Kun's face was ashen, and he couldn't help scolding Liao Yunpeng angrily.
"Alas... don't blame anyone. Those who don't know are not guilty!" Chen Tianhua didn't think anything of it. He stopped Zheng Kun with a wave of his hand. He just smiled lightly and said:
"Mr. Liao doesn't know something. This is a mountainous town that affects hundreds of thousands of people. It's full of waste and needs to be renovated. What can we do with tens of millions of taels of silver? How many times more can we do?"
“To eradicate opium poppy cultivation, we not only need to make up for the shortfall in taxes paid to the government, but also subsidize those growers. We need to build power plants, building materials factories, coking plants and other real economies. We also need to build roads, dig tunnels and bridges, and build
Hospitals and schools, as well as street shops, etc., add up to a huge amount of astronomical expenses."
"There are still countless people's livelihood projects to be done. You have been a householder, don't you know that firewood and rice are expensive?"
Chen Tianhua glanced sideways at Liao Yunpeng, hummed a long list of truths, and finally retorted, in return for the latter's rude rebuttal.
Building power plants, running schools, hospitals and other livelihood welfare projects in remote and remote areas, as well as providing convenient transportation, also proves that this murderous big shot really wants to develop the economy here.
Thinking of this, Liao Yunpeng nodded and smiled, and a stone finally fell to the ground in his heart.
He stood up and left his seat, bowed deeply to Chen Tianhua respectfully, and said apologetically: "I just spoke rudely under my position, and I was very disrespectful to you. Please forgive me."
"Sigh... Mr. Liao doesn't understand the truth. It's forgivable. What's more, what he said is the truth. His loyal words are hard to hear. I am by no means a fatuous person. How can I be punished? Sir, please sit back at the original table and the banquet will continue." Chen Tianhua gently held his hand.
Once raised, the clouds are calm and the wind is soothing.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your magnanimity and your duty. I will definitely dedicate myself to my post to repay Your Excellency for your love."
After saying that, Liao Yunpeng bowed and returned to his seat.
It turned out that the several disrespectful confrontations just now were done deliberately by him in order to test the opponent's strength so that he could advance or retreat.
Unexpectedly, I have the heart of a villain but the heart of a gentleman.
During the banquet, everyone exchanged cups and cups, and laughter continued between the host and the guest.
