Rebirth of the Rising Sun

In the mayor's office of Lianhua City, Feng Sizhe had just hung up the phone call from Long Zaitian. He was full of joy.

Long Zaitian thanked Feng Sizhe a lot on the phone. This time he was able to handle the case so smoothly and received great praise from the central leaders. This was also largely related to the fact that his son was not involved in this matter. In fact, all of this should be thanked to Feng Sizhe. If he hadn't been optimistic about his son, who knows what would have happened?

Feng Sizhe modestly said that Long Xin had his own ideas, good upbringing, and a good character. In short, he said what Long Xin wanted to hear, which made Long Xin very happy. In the end, the two agreed that Long Xin had been in Lianhua City for a long time and should return to Kyoto, where Long Zaitian had already arranged a job for him.

Feng Sizhe also knew that Long Xin and Ke Lan had been with him for quite some time and that it was time for them to leave. Besides, the Huayuan smuggling case had been completed and the risks they had taken had passed, so it was time to let them go. So he called the two of them to his side and told them about this matter.

The real transformation of Long Xin and Ke Lan came after they started working with Feng Sizhe. They remembered that Feng Sizhe once took them to one of the most remote villages in Lianhua City to inspect the agricultural land conditions. Because the conditions there were really limited, even if the mayor came, all they could prepare was an airtight mud house.

This village is so poor that there is not even a decent house in the village, and many families don't even have a decent piece of clothing. They may only have one set of clothes to wear out, and that set is given to whoever goes out. Faced with such an environment and such a village, what else can they complain about?

At that time, Feng Sizhe did not bring many people with him. In addition to the driver Li Shuang and the secretary Chen Guangming, there were Long Xin and Ke Lan.

Considering that Kelan was a girl and there were differences between men and women, Feng Sizhe gave the best-looking house to Kelan, and then gave the outer room to Long Xin and Chen Guangming. He knew that these two people were not as healthy as himself. He himself put on his coat and spent the night with Li Shuang on the roof outside the house.

The next morning, when Kelan and Long Xin saw Feng Sizhe sleeping on the roof, they were both moved. They could not believe that the mayor of a city could sleep in such an environment. Feng Sizhe explained that it was best for him to sleep there so that he could stand guard for them. He heard from the villagers here that there were often some wild beasts nearby at night. He was afraid that something would come and scare Long Xin and Kelan. They were both too precious. How could they not be moved by the fact that the mayor of a city was standing guard for them? Especially Kelan, she knew that she was actually sleeping in the space where several people were sleeping, otherwise, Feng Sizhe would have a place to sleep.

For this reason, their feelings towards Feng Sizhe had changed a long time ago, from the initial unwillingness and even some contempt to the current conviction. Now, when they heard Feng Sizhe say that they could go back to their respective homes, they actually disagreed. They both said that they had watched the agricultural reforms in Lianhua City undergo changes, so they hoped to see a good harvest in the third quarter of Lianhua City, and after seeing Lianhua City get a good harvest, they would leave.

Feng Sizhe couldn't refuse the two comrades' idea, because they also wanted to see the fruits of victory, so he promised them that he would talk about it after the harvest at the beginning of the year. The two left happily.

Time flies, and the end of 000 is just around the corner. Lianhua City is about to usher in the joyous day of harvest. According to some agricultural experts, this year's Lianhua City will usher in the most gratifying year for agriculture since the founding of the People's Republic of China because the city has implemented agricultural transformation and fully utilized the current situation and made phase changes in the local land form. This year's agricultural economic income in Lianhua City will also change the statement that Lianhua City is the last in the total economic output of the entire Guangxi Province.

History is about to change. The cadres and people of Lianhua City are very happy. Feng Sizhe and Xia Xiang are also looking forward to this moment. However, just when the people of Lianhua City are rejoicing, a news suddenly comes from the province that Comrade Xia Xiang, the secretary of the Lianhua Municipal Party Committee, will be transferred to the Provincial Construction Department as director.

Feng Sizhe was stunned when he heard the news. What was going on? Why was he transferred so soon? Wasn't it supposed to be next March? And, even if he was transferred, he had to be a deputy governor in the province? Although he was not a permanent member of the Standing Committee, at least he had solved the problem of being a deputy minister. How could Xia Xiang be transferred to the Construction Department? In that case, wouldn't he be transferred horizontally at the department level? This was not even a so-called promotion in name only, but a pure horizontal transfer or demotion.

Feng Sizhe didn't understand this problem. He first called Xia Xiang's office and asked him if he knew what was going on. However, when he called, it was the secretary who answered the phone and said that Secretary Xia had a headache and had gone home to rest.

Knowing that Xia Xiang couldn't figure it out, how could Feng Sizhe figure it out? Well, since Xia Xiang couldn't talk about it, he had to ask about it. He immediately asked for a car, said hello to the municipal government office, and then went straight to the provincial capital. He wanted to find out why the economic work of Lianhua City was improved, but the party secretary here was transferred horizontally or even demoted secretly. Why?

Feng Sizhe came to the provincial government in a hurry. He went to the governor's office first. He wanted to ask Governor Du Shengzheng what his attitude was towards Xia Xiang's problem.

When Feng Sizhe appeared in front of Du Shengzheng, he was very happy at first. After all, it was because Feng Sizhe went to Lianhua City that the economic situation in Lianhua City was changed. Therefore, he received Feng Sizhe very warmly and even turned down two meetings with other city leaders. It can be said that this gave Feng Sizhe a lot of face, but Feng Sizhe didn't appreciate it at all. Seeing that there was no one in the room, he directly talked about Comrade Xia Xiang's problem. He asked Du Shengzheng if he knew about this matter and what his attitude was after knowing it.

Facing Feng Sizhe, Du Shengzheng actually got angry. "What? Are you questioning me? Are you questioning me as the governor as the mayor?"

As soon as Du Shengzheng said this, Feng Sizhe just remembered that there was a huge difference in rank between the two of them. He immediately explained, "No, Governor, I just want to ask about Comrade Guan Xiaxiang. Why is it that the economy of our Lianhua City has made great progress, but the province is considering transferring him away? I can't understand it."

"Even if you can't figure it out, you have to think about it. I tell you, this is the consideration of the provincial party committee. If there is such a decision, it is the decision of the provincial party committee. It is not something you, as a mayor, should be involved in." Du Shengzheng looked at Feng Sizhe with a cold face. He admitted that he liked this young man very much and could even tolerate some of his minor faults, but he absolutely could not bear to see him talking to him about organizational issues in such a tone. This is a matter of basic principle. If he is doing this for Feng Sizhe's good, he must not indulge him in such actions.

After being scolded by Du Shengzheng, Feng Sizhe walked out of the office angrily. Not getting the answer he wanted, he thought again and again, and then ran to the provincial party committee again. He wanted to find a place to reason.

In the office of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Minister, Yao Dejiang warmly received Feng Sizhe.

During the Chinese New Year, Yao Dejiang went to the Miao family to pay New Year's greetings. Old man Miao only spoke to him for more than ten minutes, but every word he said was about Feng Sizhe. This touched him and made him understand that if it were not for Feng Sizhe, the old man might not have come to see him at all.

This also made Yao Dejiang more speculative in his heart. Of course, he could not guess the relationship between Feng Sizhe and Miao Zihan. He was just thinking of a possibility in his heart. Was Feng Sizhe the person that Mr. Miao favored, and the cadre that the family of the reformists focused on training? It seemed that only this possibility would make the Miao family take such care of Feng Sizhe. This also showed that Feng Sizhe's future was limitless. Thinking of this, he had to be polite to Feng Sizhe. People say that you should not bully the old and the young. Do you know how great the achievements of Feng Sizhe, a young man, will be in the future? Do you know if you will be able to ask for help one day? So when he saw Feng Sizhe coming uninvited, he was not angry at all, but politely invited him to take a seat.

In fact, Feng Sizhe had always had a good impression of Yao Dejiang. He was a Miao, and he was considered the son-in-law of the Miao. So they were no longer outsiders. So why should he be polite? So after sitting down and taking the tea brought by Yao Dejiang himself, he said to him, "Minister Yao, I heard that our Lianhua City Party Committee Secretary Xia Xiang is going to be transferred to the Provincial Construction Department as director. Is this true?"

Feng Sizhe came here for this matter. Yao Dejiang just laughed and said, "Sizhe, who told you that? Do you have any ideas?"

"Ideas? Of course I have ideas." Feng Sizhe felt unfair for others, so naturally he had some ideas.

"Well, it's a good thing to have ideas and want to make progress, but you also know that you have only been the mayor for a short time, only about a year at most. It will be very difficult for you to fight for the position of secretary." Yao Dejiang mistakenly thought that this was what Feng Sizhe meant, so he tried to persuade him kindly.
