I just joined the inspection department, and the whole country is in a panic.

"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate!" Yang Wen said in a deep voice.

“Our Liuhai City is also in dire need of this funding. Although the introduction of Su's Precision Casting Co., Ltd. has completed the industrial chain, if our industry wants to take it to the next level, we still need to do more to attract investment and build some infrastructure.”

"Especially our transportation and the subsequent upgrades of the industrial park! These all require money."

“Two billion is a lifeline for us, and I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to lend it to Yunhai City like this,” Yang Wen refused.

To be honest, he didn't expect Feng Shangru to ask for money so directly.

Should we lend money to Zhao Zhong so he can develop Yunhai City?

Ha ha!

Let him claim the credit himself?

Ha ha!

What about yourself?

He had finally managed to get the project funding from Huang Zhenrong, and now he was going to just hand it over to someone else?

Seeing Yang Wen's refusal, Feng Shangru's expression darkened slightly.

To be honest, he didn't expect Yang Wen to refuse so directly!

Doesn't the other party consider the consequences?

What is your attitude when you say these words?

Doesn't the other party know?

He has already swallowed his pride to borrow this money, which proves that his attitude is very firm. If you don't give it to him, you can imagine what he will think of Yang Wen afterwards.

"Comrade Yang Wen, I think you should think about this carefully. I know that Liuhai City is in dire need of this money right now, but compared to Yunhai City, it is even more in need!"

"We're all from the same province, so we should help each other."

“You can postpone this payment from Liuhai City for now. We’ll repay you in a year or two when Yunhai City has the funds. You’re not necessarily in a hurry to use this money, are you?” Feng Shangru said with a forced smile.

Ha ha.

Yang Wen sneered inwardly upon hearing this!

He finally realized that Feng Shangru wanted to use this money to support Zhao Zhong!

Do you want to promote Zhao Zhong in the future?

very good!

In fact, Yang Wen knew that if he refused the other party now, Feng Shangru would most likely make things difficult for him in the future.

They might even target you in various ways.

After all, the other party is the boss.

A single word from his boss can put immense pressure on him in many situations.

Even if he has a chance to be promoted in a few years, he might be held hostage by the other party!

But Yang Wen also had his own ideas.

Why refuse?

First, after Feng Shangru took office, he distanced himself from those who had been close to Yang Hongqing in the past.

Secondly, the attitude of the capital is the most important factor in my next promotion. Although Feng Shangru also has considerable influence over whether to recommend me for promotion.

However, Yang Wen, being a reborn person, knew some information.

In the next few years, his opinions from above will be extremely important for any further promotion from his current position!

In other words, if Yang Hongqing can pull him up, he still has a chance.

Not to mention that Feng Shangru is now pushing Zhao Zhong hard. Even if I agree to his request, will I be in the queue for promotion in the future?

It’s highly unlikely!

If that's the case, why should I give face to Feng Shangru?

“Secretary Feng, that’s true, but Liuhai City is also short of money. Besides, this is a special fund. If Liuhai City receives it and then lends it to Yunhai City, how am I supposed to explain that to Minister Huang?”

“When the higher-ups come down again to investigate the direction of resource utilization, how will we explain it? I don’t think it’s appropriate to do it this way,” Yang Wen said.

Seeing that Yang Wen was so unyielding, Feng Shangru frowned deeply!

This is the first time since he took office that a subordinate has dared to stand up to him so directly!

"Comrade Yang Wen, are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

"Helping others is a win-win situation for everyone. Are you really only thinking about your own Liuhai City?" Feng Shangru had already made his point very clear.

What he meant was that if you're not willing to lend money, then you'll have to bear the consequences yourself!

He was the boss, after all. He believed Yang Wen knew how serious the consequences would be if the boss spoke up!

“Secretary Feng, we can consider other things, but this is a matter of principle, and I really cannot agree to it,” Yang Wen stated.

Upon hearing this, Feng Shangru's face turned completely gloomy.

"Fine, if you don't want to, then forget it. You can go back now." Feng Shangru waved his hand, signaling for people to leave.

"Ok."

After Yang Wen left the other party's office, his face also darkened.

"That old dog Feng Shangru!"

After returning to his residence, Yang Wen began to think about what would happen next.

"I think I'll be targeted in the future!"

However, if Liuhai City uses this 20 billion yuan to further improve its metal processing industry, it will definitely be of great help.

We can still achieve some results then, hehe, for the other party?

Handing it over to someone else?

And they even said they'd pay it back in a year or two?

Is it that easy?

It would be good if they could pay it back in three to five years.

By then, my term will have expired.

What else is this money needed to build?

It's up to the next person!

……

night.

Zhao Zhong sat opposite Feng Shangru, carefully sipping his tea.

"Secretary Feng, Yang Wen actually disagrees? What should we do?" Zhao Zhong asked with some concern.

"Zhang Lichun agreed, Yang Wen objected, so at least for now, it's even!"

“If we can win over the other members of the Standing Committee of Liuhai City and get most of them to agree to lend you money, then a vote will decide whether Yang Wen’s insistence alone will be useless!” Feng Shangru said, squinting his eyes.

"You don't need to worry too much about this. You should focus on figuring out how to make good use of the money once it arrives and achieve something!"

"Two billion, that's cash flow, it can do a lot of things."

“Secretary, what are my plans for the future…” Zhao Zhong immediately began to explain his plans.

……

the other side.

Yang Wen and Zhang Lichun were having a working lunch together.

After all, everyone here today is on a business trip, and we need to communicate about some work-related matters.

"Mayor Zhang, did Secretary Feng come to see you today?"

"what?"

“Secretary Feng told me that he wants to lend our 20 billion yuan project special fund to Yunhai City. I disagree with this. What do you think?” Yang Wen looked at Zhang Lichun with a smile.

"Uh, well... Secretary Feng didn't contact me, but this is special funding, and I think, I think we should still consider it carefully," Zhang Lichun quickly lied.

joke.

How could I possibly tell Yang Wen some of these things?

But to his surprise, Yang Wen actually rejected Feng Shangru!

That's incredibly bold!
