Dahu County has money in its finances, and both the secretary and the county magistrate are very happy. Money makes things easier these days. Money can be used to pay civil servants, to stop delaying the salaries of school teachers, and to build and realize the blueprints in your mind. In short, with money, you can do many things you want to do. Even because of the money, Secretary Sun and County Magistrate Fang were much more confident when they went to the Yongyang Municipal Party Committee for a meeting. This is the change that happens when people have money. Officials who change the economic outlook of the area they govern will also see changes. This is a manifestation of the confidence of those in power.

As the instigator of this incident and someone who had devoted all his efforts to agricultural reform, Feng Sizhe suddenly became much more low-key. After returning from the Chengguan Town Land Reform Victory Conference, he seldom appeared in public.

Feng Sizhe did what he should do. He had vowed that if the land reform failed, he would resign. Now that he succeeded, he could rest assured in the eyes of others. But at this moment, he was looking at piles of documents in his office. This was because he had a higher goal. The victory of land reform in a county could not be his goal at all. He wanted to fly higher and farther like an eagle. The victory in agriculture was just a small starting point.

There are two documents on his desk, one is about the Yongsheng Casting Factory built in Dahu County in the 1960s, and the other is about the Dahu Lighter Manufacturing Factory built in the mid-1980s.

These two documents are the only income-generating groups in Dahu County other than agriculture. Of course, they only generated income before 1990. After all these years, both Yongsheng Casting and Dahu Lighter Factory have entered a semi-stagnant development stage. How can a company that can't even pay its workers basic wages be profitable and generate income for the county's finances?

Feng Sizhe carefully read the information of these two factories. Yongsheng Casting Factory gradually declined because of outdated equipment and lack of money to replace new equipment. But their advantage is that they have a good foundation. The workers in the casting factory are strong in practical operation and can endure hardships. It is just because Dahu County’s finances have been in deficit in recent years, and they have gradually fallen into a trough without the support of the capital chain. Dahu County Lighter Factory, in 1991, was also a contemporary product. It should have been profitable, but because the factory lacked outstanding sales staff and the finished products were too ordinary, the factory did not make money and gradually declined.

It can be said that as long as the operation is done properly, for example, a large amount of funds are injected into Yongsheng Castings, new equipment is replaced, and the original personnel are trained on the job, then their revival will not be a problem. After all, the agricultural situation in Dahu County is promising now. The agricultural machinery needed by Dahu County alone can allow the factory to obtain a large number of orders and revive.

The problem of the Dahu County Lighter Factory is not difficult to solve. As long as there are good sales staff and some creativity in the products, such as printing advertisements on lighters to promote a manufacturer or a hotel, there is no telling how many orders can be drawn from this item alone. Secondly, some exquisite high-end lighters can be made as gifts for relatives and friends. This is actually a very common thing in later generations, but many people did not see the business opportunities here at that time. Rich people would not value this small lighter because they thought the profit here was too low. Poor people have no money to invest, so naturally they would not fancy this small lighter, so this is equivalent to giving him a very good opportunity and gap.

In his previous life, Feng Sizhe had met too many successful businessmen, who told him one thing: money is earned bit by bit, no one is born rich, and if you go back three generations of those rich people, there might even be beggars among them.

Feng Sizhe then made up his mind that if Dahu County wanted to turn things around, relying solely on agriculture could only solve the problem of food shortage, and there must also be industrial development. Of course, neither Yongsheng Castings nor Dahu Lighter Factory could be considered factories, but as long as they were done well, they could still generate income for the county, and the production tax they could pay would even be no less than agricultural tax.

After reading the information and having a rough idea in mind, he decided that the next focus of his work would be to make use of these two factories. He believed that this good idea that could generate revenue for the county's finances would definitely be supported by the secretary and the county magistrate.

Feng Sizhe came to the office of the county party secretary Sun Shicun with full confidence and directly proposed to him the idea of ​​reforming Yongsheng Casting Factory and Dahu Lighter.

"Haha, great. Comrade Feng Sizhe is indeed a young man with a pioneering and enterprising spirit. I am very happy. How about this? I will immediately convene a secretary's office meeting to study it carefully with my comrades, and then give you a reply?" Sun Shicun stood up from his office chair and patted Feng Sizhe's arm happily. Obviously, Sun Shicun was very happy to have such a subordinate, and he was also very satisfied with Feng Sizhe's recent work.

"Okay, then I'll wait for Secretary Sun's news." Feng Sizhe nodded. He believed that this idea, which could benefit the finances of Dahu County and bring profits to the people of Dahu County, would definitely be approved by the Secretary's Office Meeting.

After Feng Sizhe left Sun Shicun's office, Secretary Sun called Fang Xianzhi's office and asked County Mayor Fang to come to his office to discuss the matter.

Fang Xianzhi quickly sat face to face with Sun Shicun. When Secretary Sun told him what Feng Sizhe had just done to him, Fang Xianzhi's face darkened. "I wonder what Secretary Sun thinks?"

"Well, this is an economic issue, and it is the main responsibility of your county government. As the secretary, I am just checking for you. You should tell me your opinion first." Sun Shicun laughed and kicked the ball back.

Fang Xianzhi cursed the old fox in his heart, and then slowly said, "Secretary Sun, the county's agricultural reform has made Feng Sizhe the center of attention. Now in Dahu County, many people only know that there is a Feng Sizhe in Dahu County, and they don't even remember you and me. I wonder if Secretary Sun still remembers the last time he went to the municipal party committee for a meeting. At that time, there were so many secretaries and county governors. Secretary Cai of the municipal party committee and Mayor Chang praised us, and then the other county party committee secretaries and county governors said that we were not capable, but lucky, and that we had a capable deputy county governor under us. Don't you think this is obviously saying that we are incapable, and that all our achievements now are due to Feng Sizhe? How infuriating."

When Fang Xianzhi said this, Sun Shicun also remembered that he was very angry when he heard others evaluate him like this. After all, Dahu County was still his own decision. If he hadn't done a good job, how could Feng Sizhe have achieved such results?

"Well, what County Magistrate Fang said is right. It's just that the suggestions put forward by Feng Sizhe are indeed very good. According to his ideas, perhaps the Yongsheng Casting Factory of our Dahu County Lighter Factory can really be saved. In this way, our county's finances will be more abundant, which is also beneficial to our governance." Although Sun Shicun didn't want Feng Sizhe to be in the limelight, in the current situation, some things really can't be carried out without County Magistrate Feng.

"Alas, Secretary Sun, what you said is wrong. The earth will continue to rotate without anyone, and our Dahu County will continue to develop without anyone. For example, our limelight as the top two leaders of Dahu County has been suppressed by him. Now we can't give him such an opportunity, otherwise I'm afraid that in the future, the people's officials will only recognize Feng Sizhe and not us. If that happens, how can we lead Dahu County? Besides, what he can do cannot be done by others. For example, now we already know his way of thinking, so I believe that as long as we follow his way of thinking, we will definitely achieve results. At that time, others will not say that the two of us started with a deputy county magistrate."

What Fang Xianzhi said made sense, and Sun Shicun kept nodding. "Then do you think other people can do the two things that County Magistrate Feng mentioned?"

"Of course we can do it. A while ago, I heard Comrade He Zhuhua say that he had not achieved any outstanding results since he became the deputy secretary of the county party committee. He really wanted a chance. I think it would be better to let him take charge of the foundry factory, and I will be in charge of the lighter factory. I firmly believe that as long as the idea is right, we will also achieve very good results in a year and add a lot of revenue to the fiscal revenue of Dahu County."

Fang Xianzhi had obviously thought about it a long time ago. He couldn't let Feng Sizhe, the executive deputy county chief, overshadow himself as the county chief. He also didn't believe that he couldn't do what Feng Sizhe could do. In comparison, he should be more authoritative, and the resistance he would face when doing things would definitely be much smaller than Feng Sizhe's.

Perhaps Sun Shicun didn't want Feng Sizhe to be too popular, as this would put his position in jeopardy. For this reason, he agreed with Fang Xianzhi's idea and agreed to leave these two tasks to County Magistrate Fang and Deputy Secretary He.

Feng Sizhe waited for three days but the secretary's meeting was not held. He called the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Wu Guangrong and learned that Secretary Sun had never called to hold a secretary's office meeting. He couldn't help but go to Sun Shicun's office again.

"Haha, County Magistrate Feng is here, please take a seat." As soon as Sun Shicun saw Feng Sizhe coming, he knew the other party's intention. He smiled and stretched out his hand to motion for him to sit down.
