Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Huh? Just what? Did you encounter any problems at work?" Who is Mr. Miao? He is definitely a veteran in the political arena. He can often tell from your tone whether what you are going to say on the phone is good or bad. And Yao Dejiang has said so much, how could he not hear it?

Yao Dejiang heard what Master Miao had sensed, so he decided to go all out and explain the problem directly. In fact, he didn't dare to lie in front of Master Miao, so it was better to speak out openly instead of hiding it. In this way, at least he would have a good attitude. "Master Miao, the situation is like this..." Yao Dejiang then told the details of his conversation with Ping Guowang today.

After Yao Dejiang finished speaking, the other end of the phone fell into silence. After about two or three minutes, Miao Lao's voice continued to sound, "Oh, I know about this matter. How about this, you should just focus on your work. Yunfeng will discuss the details with you later. Xiao Yao, work hard, you are still young and have a bright future."

"Yes, yes, please rest assured, Mr. Miao. I'm waiting for Minister Miao's call. I'm waiting." Yao Dejiang didn't expect that after he messed up the matter, he didn't get scolded by Mr. Miao, but instead got understanding and encouragement. He was really excited. Mr. Miao said that he could still make progress, so he definitely could and would improve.

Let’s not talk about how excited Yao Dejiang was when he hung up the phone. Let’s talk about how as soon as Miao Lao hung up the phone, his granddaughter Miao Zihan kissed him on the face and said, “Grandpa, you are amazing. If you were allowed to act, you would definitely win the Aska Gold Award.”

"Okay, do I need to be taught this childish trick of understanding people's psychology? I just don't understand, why do you insist on me cooperating with you in this play? Aren't you worried that Zhe'er has been suspended from work by the Haibei Municipal Committee? You still come to me to help you act, what on earth do you want to do?" Old Miao didn't understand what his granddaughter did. After hearing that the Haibei Municipal Committee had suspended Feng Sizhe's work, he was a little angry, and he knew that his granddaughter would be even angrier, so he agreed to Miao Zihan to act with her. In fact, Old Miao had been waiting for Yao Dejiang to call by the phone, because he believed that Yao Dejiang would call to report what happened during the day at the latest in the evening. If he didn't even make such a call, then the Miao family could give up such a person.

"Hehe, let's keep it secret for now. Don't worry, this is all part of our plan. Sizhe said that the time is not right yet, so it's hard to tell us his specific plan, but as soon as things start to work out, he will tell me the truth right away." Miao Zihan looked like she would never tell anyone, but in fact, she didn't know what Feng Sizhe was up to.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

No one knows what kind of medicine Feng Sizhe is selling, and now he is appearing in Hua's hometown where he should not be.

Ever since Liu Wenhua got into trouble, Hua Liguo, the old man, took the initiative to resign from the post of deputy director of the Provincial People's Congress and stayed at home. This was actually his attitude. No matter what, he played a role in connecting Liu Wenhua with the Provincial Japanese Business Council. Now that something has happened, although no one has come to hold him accountable, he cannot forgive himself, so he simply resigned and stayed at home. This can be regarded as another form of punishment.

When Mr. Hua was still in office, even when he retired from the position of executive vice governor and became the deputy director of the National People's Congress, it was common for him to have many guests. He would often be visited by the leaders of various cities, districts and counties. But this time, after he really resigned as the deputy director of the National People's Congress, there were very few people who came to visit him. Except for a few confidants and the current municipal party secretary and the current executive vice governor Du Shengzheng, there were almost no officials who took the initiative to visit him. And that night, when Mr. Hua and his wife were watching TV in the living room, the doorbell rang. The little nanny quickly walked over and opened the door. The young Feng Sizhe and his driver Li Shuang appeared at the door.

When the nanny saw that it was a stranger she had never seen before, she quickly turned around and said to Mr. Hua, "Grandpa Hua, Grandma Hua, there are guests coming."

"Who is it? Please let him in." Upon hearing that it was a guest and not his children who came to see him as he thought, Old Hua agreed and looked towards the door. Until he saw Feng Sizhe's figure appear in his sight, he was stunned, because he would never have expected this person to come.

"Master Hua, I am sorry to bother you." Feng Sizhe was not surprised at all by the way Master Hua looked at him, because he could understand it, after all, no one would have thought of it. And if this incident had not happened, he might not have visited Master Hua.

"Well... Oh, come in and take a seat." Although he was very surprised, Hua Lao had seen the world after all, and he had worked his way up from the basics, so he had the psychological ability to withstand many unexpected things. Just like Feng Sizhe's sudden appearance, although it was a bit abrupt, he was able to calm down quickly after being surprised.

"Thank you." Feng Sizhe thanked him and turned to Li Shuang behind him and said, "Give me the things. You go wait for me in the car outside the door."

After taking the gift box handed over by Li Shuang, Feng Sizhe walked into the living room of Mr. Hua's house with a smile, "Mr. Hua, this is a small gift that Sizhe prepared for you. It's not a respectful gesture. I hope you can accept it."

Feng Sizhe also brought a gift, which made Hua Lao's face darken. According to his usual experience, no gift without merit should be accepted. Feng Sizhe came to see him and brought him something, which meant he must be asking for something from him. So he did not immediately extend his hand to take it, but deliberately paused and asked, "What does this mean?"

"It's nothing special. I know that Mr. Hua likes reading very much, and there happens to be a bound history book at home. I thought it would be a waste of resources if I kept it in my hands, so it would be better to give it to someone who understands it. So I took it over, and I hope Mr. Hua won't be polite." As he spoke, Feng Sizhe opened the gift box, and sure enough, a thick and exquisitely bound history book appeared in front of Mr. Hua.

This history book was compiled by the state when the Republic was founded. There were not many bound copies at that time. In addition, many copies were destroyed after a ten-year catastrophe, and even fewer have survived to the present day. The copy that Feng Sizhe had was accidentally left behind by his grandfather and placed at the bottom of a box. It was not found for a while, and now it has become a rare item.

When he saw that it was a bound history book, Mr. Hua's eyes lit up immediately. It is said that scholars love books, and this is true. After picking up the history book, Mr. Hua was reluctant to put it down.

Seeing that Mr. Hua liked it very much, Feng Sizhe was also very happy. After all, if the other party likes the gift you give, it is something to be proud of.

He read the book for a while, until Hua Lao's wife touched him with her arm. Only then did he notice that Feng Sizhe was still here. With the book as an introduction, the relationship between the two naturally became closer. "Haha, come on, Mayor Feng, come and sit down."

"Thank you, Mr. Hua." Another thank you, and then Feng Sizhe politely sat on the sofa opposite Mr. Hua.

Putting the bound history book in his hand back into the gift box, Hua Lao did not want to keep Anzhan just because he liked it. "Mayor Feng, what is the matter with you coming to see me this time?"

"Yes." Feng Sizhe answered happily.

When Feng Sizhe answered like this, Mr. Hua was stunned for a moment. Under normal circumstances, people who came to him for business would not say that they came for business. They would greet each other first and say that they just came to see each other. However, it was rare for someone like Feng Sizhe to say that he had business as soon as he took out the gift.

"Then I wonder if Mayor Feng has something to ask me? Does he want me to help you with something?" Although Old Hua had retired, if he stood up and said a few words for someone, it would still have some weight, at least in the eyes of Vice Governor Du Sheng.

Seeing the doubtful look in Elder Hua's eyes, Feng Sizhe shook his head, "No, I came to see Elder Hua this time to apologize."

"Apology? What do you want to compensate for?" asked Old Hua, looking confused.

"Mr. Hua, I know that the reason why you retired from the position of deputy director of the National People's Congress ahead of schedule was because you were troubled by the affairs between Liu Wenhua and the Provincial Japanese Business Council, and this matter was caught by me and was done by me. And because of my actions, I have implicated an innocent you, so I came here to apologize this time." Feng Sizhe spoke in a very sincere voice. After he finished speaking, he deliberately stood up and bowed to Mr. Hua, expressing his absolute sincerity.

When he heard about this incident, a trace of regret appeared in Hua Lao's eyes. If Feng Sizhe hadn't made this incident happen, it was true that he would never retire early. To be honest, he was really angry when the incident was exposed. He knew that although some people in the provincial party committee didn't say anything to him, some of them had a bad impression of him in their hearts, but they didn't say much because of his qualifications and age. So he felt that because of this incident, he lost face, and he was embarrassed and hated Feng Sizhe a little. But afterwards, he thought carefully and still thought that he should thank Feng Sizhe. If Feng Sizhe hadn't appeared in time and discovered this problem, it would be hard to say how big this matter would be in the end. If the matter was discovered too late and it really couldn't be solved, then even if he just resigned, it wouldn't be enough.
