Qian Minghong, the head of the Qian family, was shocked when he received the news sent by Liu Jintang. Unexpectedly, Li Zhen summoned him suddenly. Qian Minghong originally wanted to delay a little time to discuss with someone to see what Li Zhen's plan was. Unfortunately, the soldiers who came were so vicious that they did not give Qian Minghong a chance and asked him to set off immediately, which made Qian Minghong's little plan fail.
Qian Minghong followed the soldiers towards the military camp. Along the way, he felt uneasy in his heart.
Li Zhen summoned him instead of the others. This was the most disturbing thing. Qian Minghong had lived half his life and was used to seeing all kinds of people, but when he was about to face Li Zhen, I also felt uneasy in my heart. After all, what happened in Chengdu was also related to him, and the person he met was the president of a country, a person with supreme power.
Entering the military camp, soldiers took Qian Minghong to Li Zhen's office.
After Qian Minghong entered, he glanced quickly.
Li Zhen was holding a book and was concentrating on reading. Even when Qian Minghong came in, Li Zhen didn't seem to notice Qian Minghong's arrival. As a result, Qian Minghong became embarrassed. He was just a commoner and did not dare to take the initiative. He opened his mouth to disturb Li Zhen, and since he had a humble status, he couldn't sit down casually when he came to Li Zhen's office. It would be a loss of etiquette. He could only stand in the office and wait for Li Zhen to finish reading.
With Qian Minghong's mature mind, he easily guessed that Li Zhen ignored him, which was to give him a warning, but he clearly knew that his body could not bear it when he was old. After all, he was a young man.
Standing in the office, Qian Minghong was okay at first, but later his legs began to tremble.
For ten minutes, Qian Minghong was very uncomfortable.
Although Li Zhen was reading, his mind was on Qian Minghong. He would glance at Qian Minghong from time to time and pay attention to Qian Minghong's demeanor. After he found that Qian Minghong couldn't bear it, he raised his head and said with a surprised expression: "Mr. Qian, just now I was so absorbed in reading that I didn't even notice when Mr. Qian came in. Since he's here, why don't you say hello, sit down, sit down quickly."
"Thank you, President."
Qian Minghong breathed a long sigh of relief, but smiled bitterly in his heart.
This great president is so thief.
It's obvious that you deliberately tormented me, and now you are making excuses for yourself.
Qian Minghong would not say what he was thinking in his heart. He smiled slightly and said calmly: "The President has many things to do all day long, but he is still so eager to learn. It is really admirable." At this point, he paused and said: "President The President came to see me today. I don’t know what the President has to say. As long as I can do it, I will definitely complete it.”
Li Zhen said: "Mr. Qian is so knowledgeable and reasonable, which is admirable."
Qian Minghong immediately humbled himself and said: "The president has given me the award."
He knew clearly that what he said to Li Zhen was polite, but he still had to say these words.
An old fox and a young fox talked politely to each other.
Li Zhen saw that Qian Minghong was really an old man, so he stopped talking nonsense and changed the topic and said: "Mr. Qian, the thing is like this. In view of the difficulties faced by farmers, the country is prepared to provide heavy subsidies to farmers. First, a granary will be set up in Sichuan Province to be responsible for purchasing grain. After all, the country needs to measure grain every day; second, the country will also set up a grain seed station in Sichuan to provide people with grain seeds and farming tools."
brush,.
Qian Minghong's expression changed and his body trembled slightly.
Li Zhen did this because he planned to drain his salary from under the cauldron.
Just imagine, once the country's grain stations and granaries are built, what else will they earn? Facing a powerful country, they can't compete in terms of money and strength, and the six major families of Qian, Cao, Wei, Zou, Tao, and Dou themselves They make money by purchasing and selling grain, grain seeds, etc. The country is vigorously building new grain stations, so what should they do?
For a moment, Qian Minghong was in a state of confusion.
He raised his head and glanced at Li Zhen, and saw Li Zhen staring at him with a smile. Qian Minghong felt strange in his heart. If Li Zhen really wanted to cut down his salary, he would not take the initiative to make an appointment with him.
Now that Li Zhen has taken the initiative to make an appointment, what does that mean?
There is also a transfer.
In an instant, Qian Minghong made such a conclusion in his mind.
Qian Minghong's mind started to get excited again. At this time, Qian Minghong leaned forward slightly and said humbly: "It is a good thing for the President to build grain stations and granaries. This is something that benefits the people. We, the grain merchants in Sichuan, will definitely support it strongly." President, actively cooperate with the President’s actions and never hold back.”
He spoke sincerely and expressed some intention of cooperating with Li Zhen.
"He is a knowledgeable person."
Li Zhen nodded, and then said vaguely: "Mr. Qian is indeed a virtuous businessman. I like people like this the most. The government's granary is under the rule of the state. If we want to establish a perfect institution, That would require the participation of countless talents, but I just arrived in Chengdu and my eyesight went dark. I didn’t know the situation here, otherwise I wouldn’t have even known about the assassination of Vice Premier Shi Dakai.”
When Qian Minghong heard this, he was greatly shocked.
Listening to Li Zhen's words, he heard two more meanings.
First, the granary needs talented people to participate. This is an olive branch extended to them. Second, the assassination of Shi Dakai obviously requires Qian Minghong and others to take the initiative to explain. Only then can the first benefit be achieved. This It was a big stick again. When Qian Minghong faced Li Zhen, he felt that in front of him was not a man in his thirties, but an old fox.
Every move is interesting.
After thinking about it for a while, Qian Minghong said: "The construction of the granary is something that everyone hopes for. Talents from all sides will definitely come in droves, and the matter of Vice Prime Minister Shi Dakai will definitely come to light. President, there are still things at home that I have to deal with. It would be nice to reply to the president after taking care of family matters."
"good."
Li Zhen nodded and shouted: "Ding Ruchang, see the guests off."
Ding Ruchang walked in and sent Qian Minghong away. Li Zhen looked at Qian Minghong's leaving figure with a smile on his lips. If Qian Minghong was sensible, then things would be easier to handle.
If you don't know what's going on, you can only deal with it with thunderous means.
…
Government, Mayor's Office.
Ximen Hong got the news that Li Zhen had called Qian Minghong to the military camp. He was greatly shocked and felt vaguely uneasy. He himself was already in a passive position. However, Ximen Hong was angry but did not lose his mind. Ximen Hong sat In the office, I thought carefully about whether there was anything I missed.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head.
He has contacts with people from various major families, but he has left no trace.
"The time is getting closer and closer, and it's time to implement the plan. If it continues to be delayed like this, I'm afraid it will really affect me. Let's push the scapegoat out first, disrupt the view, and allow me to protect myself."
Ximen Hong's eyes were cold and he muttered to himself.
