Metropolis: I am a technology tycoon

When I got home by car, it was already half past eight in the evening.

When Lu Xingfan returned home, he found that a relative had arrived at home, and he was also his father’s cousin. Among the entire Lu family, he was the second uncle Lu Jinyang after his eldest uncle Lu Jinchen.

Uncle Lu Jinchen works in the military’s scientific research institute. Because of Lu Xingfan’s previous inventions and the demise of the four major families, he is now the deputy minister of the military’s science and technology department, with the rank of lieutenant general.

The second uncle, Lu Jinyang, is only one year younger than the eldest uncle. Now he is the deputy minister of the Yanlong Kingdom’s railway department. He also got this position because of the demise of the previous four major families.

Because Lu Jianlin was the founding general and the first person in the military, Lu Jianlin was the anchor of the entire Lu family.

The legacy left by Lu Jianlin’s other three brothers who died in the battlefield has developed relatively smoothly under Lu Jianlin’s care in recent years, and has not been brutally plotted due to political strife.

In addition, the three brothers Lu Jinshan, Lu Jinhe, and Lu Jinfeng have developed strongly in recent years, and Lu Jinshan in particular has been recognized by the older generation of politicians as one of the future successors.

The eldest uncle Lu Jinchen, the second uncle Lu Jinyang, and the third uncle Lu Jinhan also gradually moved closer together with Lu Xingfan’s father Lu Jinshan as the center.

Ever since Lu Xingfan went to elementary school, his uncle, second uncle, third uncle and others would come to visit twice a year, so Lu Xingfan was no stranger to them.

“The second uncle is here. When did he come? Lu Xingfan said hello, put the box aside, and then sat down on the other side.

Lu Jinyang said with a smile:”Haha, it’s only been half an hour. I happened to be in Qingyun Prefecture on business, so I stopped by to take a look.”

Xiaofan, you came back so late. It seems you are busy with some scientific research project.”

“It’s not that big of a deal. The people under my command are enough to handle most things, so I usually don’t need to worry about them. I just study some things that interest me.” Lu Xingfan replied.

Looking at his second uncle, Lu Xingfan thought that his second uncle was the deputy minister of the railway department. In this case, it would be better to borrow his help to realize his high-speed rail plan.

So Lu Xingfan continued:”Second uncle is coming to Qingyun this time. State, are you inspecting the operation of the railway here?

Based on the current situation of the railway department, there should be nothing that requires you, my second uncle, to come to Qingyun Prefecture in person, right?

Lu Jinyang smiled bitterly when he heard this, shook his head and said,”Oh, you are wrong. I am being roasted on the fire now.”

This matter is really difficult to deal with. Don’t you know that more than 5,000 employees of the Qingyun Prefecture Railway Bureau have not received their wages for three consecutive months? They have gone on strike without a solution. For two days, railway transportation was paralyzed, causing great economic losses.

However, the current situation of the railway department is that it has been losing money year after year and cannot make any money at all.

Not long ago, the four major families collapsed, and the central government confiscated hundreds of billions of funds. However, the former minister of the Ministry of Railways was originally from the four major families.

After the death of the previous minister, the new minister’s candidate was just decided two days ago, and he is still an old cadre who was about to retire.

That veteran cadre was just a soy saucer. He was only temporarily stabilizing the railway department. He only wanted to retire safely after the one-year period was over, and he was not willing to bother at all.

If the minister is careless, I can’t go beyond the level to ask for money. This delay will cause the central government to take away the money from other departments.

Moreover, the railway department has been like this for many years. Even if I can go, I may not be able to get money, and banks are not willing to give loans to the railway department.

This time, not only Qingyun Prefecture, but also railway employees in four major prefectures, Jianghai Prefecture, Anlin Prefecture, Guluo Prefecture, and Cangmin Prefecture, are on strike, all within my jurisdiction.

To put it bluntly, the minister was retiring in one year’s time. This time, he is trying to catch a duck. He is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. Even if a problem arises, the central government cannot do anything to him.

But I can’t! If this matter can’t be solved this time, I will be the one who will be blamed. I really had no other choice, so I came here to discuss it with your dad.”

Lu Jinyang is really distressed now and doesn’t know how to appease the railway workers.

In fact, all he needs to do is give money to make up for the arrears of wages, but the key now is that he has no money!

On the other hand, Lu Jinshan also feels a little embarrassed. The railway The department is a special department in Yanlong Country. Government and enterprise are integrated. The finance does not go through the local government, but is directly allocated by the railway headquarters.

The railway headquarters is directly under the leadership of the cabinet and is a department with great weight. The local government can hardly urinate in a pot.

Therefore, although the railway bureau in Qingyun Prefecture is nominally under the jurisdiction of the state government, whether it obeys orders depends on its mood.

Although the state government has money, it cannot give it.

The only way It is a loan from a bank, but the situation of the railway sector is no secret. It has been losing money year after year for more than ten years, and the previous loans have not been repaid.

The bank’s money comes from depositors, and it is okay to repay it once or twice, but it cannot always be paid back. Let the railway department lose money! How can you explain to depositors if you can’t collect the loan?

Therefore, the railway department is now on the blacklist of major banks. It is difficult, difficult, difficult to get a loan.

Lu Jinshan does want to help, but Even without violating his principles, he was helpless.

Lu Xingfan knew that his second uncle, Lu Jinyang, was in trouble, and naturally knew that his father, Lu Jinshan, could not help unless he used the power of the governor to force the bank to lend money to his second uncle; but Lu Xingfan knew this Impossible.

Speaking of railway transportation, the ‘iron boss’, it has been criticized for a long time. Although the emergence of railway transportation has indeed played a great role in the country’s transportation.

However, for a long time, the railway department has been complacent and has internal problems. Problems such as poor service attitude, slow speed, high freight, poor environment, delays, overtimes, etc. are constantly emerging. The people are criticizing and criticizing the railway department one after another.

Even the local government There are also quite a few criticisms about the railway department. It can be said that although the railway department is a very powerful department, it is also very unpopular.
