Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

In fact, the military’s participation in local construction was not news in the past.

When the country needs it, many troops have participated in building bridges, roads, and even infrastructure.

In recent years, due to economic development and a relatively peaceful environment, the military has stopped participating in infrastructure construction.

Tang Shaoying was worried that Xie Zhenqi would take the initiative to help Liu Fusheng solve the manpower problem and allow the troops to participate in the construction of roads and railways. If he did so, Tang Shaoying would be missing the most favorable piece of evidence in his argument.

Xie Zhenqi thought for a moment and said, "Secretary Tang, the army supporting the local areas won't have any negative impact, right?"

Tang Shaoying shook his head and said, "At present, the country advocates an open market economic policy. The market economy should be the mainstay to develop the national economy. The military's responsibility is to protect the country and is the country's sharp sword. If Chaojiang City builds roads and railways, the military will lend a hand. If other cities want to build roads in the future, will you intervene? Commander Xie can't be partial to one and ignore the other, right?"

"This..." Xie Zhenqi was slightly stunned. There was no problem in helping Liu Fusheng build the road, but if Tang Shaoying made a fuss about this and asked other cities to seek help from the military, then he would have to seriously consider the consequences of this matter.

Tang Shaoying smiled and waited for Xie Zhenqi's reply.

The trump card he brought with him to the Xie family was the infrastructure of all cities in the entire eastern Guangdong province.

He was warning Xie Zhenqi that if you took the lead in having the troops build roads for Chaojiang, then I would put the entire infrastructure of East Guangdong Province on the shoulders of your military.

It is definitely not justifiable to only help Chaojiang and not other places. Even if the Xie family uses their connections to cover up the sky in Guangdong East Province, the Tang family has its own connections and strength in Yanjing. If the matter reaches the highest level, the Xie family will definitely be criticized, because the army and local governments do need to help each other, but they must also keep their distance.

If the scale is not controlled well, it will cause great harm to the Xie family.

Sure enough, Tang Shaoying's move hit Xie Zhenqi's weak spot.

Xie Zhenqi said: "Secretary Tang's reminder is very reasonable. The military and local governments should indeed maintain a certain distance. Most matters should be based on the opinions of the provincial party committee and provincial government. Even if the local government needs military support, it must first be approved by the provincial party committee and provincial government."

Tang Shaoying smiled and said, "I am also very pleased that you think so."

After a brief exchange of greetings, Tang Shaoying stood up and said goodbye.

The purpose of his trip has been achieved. Although he did not establish a closer relationship with the Xie family, he at least stopped the other party from helping Liu Fusheng, which is equivalent to cutting off Liu Fusheng's retreat.

After Xie Zhenqi saw Tang Shaoying off, he returned to his study and called Zhao Qiu Ming.

"Have you gone to see Liu Fusheng?"

Zhao Qiuming smiled and said, "Report to the commander, I haven't gone yet. I want to invite him to come out, so I must show sincerity. Look, I have persuaded my cousin to support Liu Fusheng's clan reform plan."

Xie Zhenqi said: "It's best if you don't go. I have prepared a gift for you. Liu Fusheng may be in some trouble right now, and you should be able to help him."

Zhao Qiuming said excitedly: "How can I help him?"

Xie Zhenqi said: "Liu Fusheng wants to build a road to boost the economic development of Jiyang City, but the provincial party committee has not approved this. If you can help him solve the problem of manpower for construction, I think Liu Fusheng will definitely accept your favor."

Zhao Qiu Ming was overjoyed and said, "In order to support national construction, we built a lot of roads. I can build highways and railways. As long as Liu Fusheng is willing to accompany me to Dongrihe, the road construction in Jiyang City will be left to me. I can even carry bricks for him myself."

Xie Zhenqi smiled and said, "Remember, when you do things, you must do it in your own name, and not under my name, understand?"

Zhao Qiuming was moved and said, "I understand, Commander. You are thinking of giving me all the credit."

Xie Zhenqi said, "I have already promised Deputy Secretary Tang of the Provincial Party Committee that the military must follow the resolutions and requests of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government and cannot help local governments solve problems without authorization. Of course, this is only at the military region level and has little to do with your local garrison troops. If you act voluntarily, I don't think the provincial government will say anything. As for other places that also want the troops to help with construction, they can convince the local chiefs based on their own abilities. It has nothing to do with our military region."

Zhao Qiuming pondered for a long time before he figured out the twists and turns here. He patted his chest and promised, "Please rest assured, Commander, I will never cause you any trouble. When the time comes, I will discuss with Liu Fusheng and ask him to send me a document requesting support. We will be invited to help, and no one can say anything."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Zhenqi breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he had handled the matter properly. At worst, he would criticize Zhao Qiu Ming harshly after the matter was accomplished.

Xie Zhenqi would definitely help Liu Fusheng with this favor.

In fact, Xie Zhenqi underestimated Tang Shaoying's methods.

Shortly after leaving Xie's house, Tang Shaoying told the driver to drive to the military base where Zhao Qiumin was stationed.

When he was about to arrive, Tang Shaoying called Zhao Qiumin.

After introducing himself, Tang Shaoying said, "I want to give Brigade Commander Zhao a big gift."

Zhao Qiuming was a straightforward person. He asked directly, "What gift?"

Tang Shaoying answered the question irrelevantly: "Before giving the gift, I have to ask Brigade Commander Zhao if he has something very important to do recently? Is this matter related to Liu Fusheng, the Party Secretary of Chaojiang City?"

Zhao Qiuming asked in surprise: "How did Secretary Tang know this?"

Tang Shaoying smiled and said, "The military exercise in the Guangdong East Military Region was very exciting, and Secretary Liu also performed brilliantly, winning unanimous praise from the military. As far as I know, the military region is going to let Brigadier General Zhao lead the team to Dongrihe. In this case, Brigade General Zhao must want Secretary Liu to go over and help, right?"

"I also heard that someone in Yanjing helped Secretary Liu get a job in the military exercise. This is enough to explain the problem."

Zhao Qiuming knew Tang Shaoying's background, and when he revealed it, he no longer concealed it: "I do have this idea, but this matter has nothing to do with Secretary Tang, right?"

Tang Shaoying smiled and said, "It has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with the gift I gave."

"What's the relationship?" Zhao Qiu Ming asked.

Tang Shaoying said: "Brigade Commander Zhao should be well aware that the Chaojiang area is planning to build a highway and railway from Jiyang to Jiangtou."

On the other side of the phone, Zhao Qiuming's expression changed slightly: "Is it related to road construction?"

Tang Shaoying sighed and said, "I personally rejected Chaojiang City's application for road construction at the provincial standing committee meeting."

"I rejected this plan not because I have any personal grudge against Liu Fusheng, nor because I don't want Chaojiang to develop rapidly. It's because Guangdong Province currently does not have enough manpower and financial resources to help Chaojiang build roads and railways. At least in the short term, this plan cannot be implemented."
