Regarding the characteristics of militarism, it covers politics, culture, and diplomacy. Government officials were a little confused when they looked at the first article of the economic section.

The economy aims at military development, and the government subsidizes military supplies, driving the rapid development of heavy industry. There is an obvious tendency in the Northeast, especially the heavy industry, which is almost all driven by military industry. Originally, the railway was still for civilian use. Since the recovery of the Middle East Road, a railway corps has been established

Later, the railway system also became a military industrial enterprise.

Wu Youping looked at other government leaders without saying a word, and saw that even though they frowned, they had no intention of raising any opinions. Wu Youping himself had nothing to ask, although it was unclear why He Rui raised his objection to the military state at this time.

Regarding the idea of ​​​​ism, Wu Youping felt that he could ask it in private. As for now, just concentrate on studying.

As soon as the study meeting ended, Wu Youping was about to talk to He Rui about the latest production tasks, but he saw that the director of the Price Bureau, Han Haitao, went to He Rui first. Wu Youping had no choice but to wait. Seeing Han Haitao's unconfident look

, Wu Youping couldn't figure out what happened to the former teahouse owner today.

Han Haitao really didn’t want to disturb He Rui. The work of the Price Bureau was under the control of the Department of Finance. As the director of the Price Bureau, he didn’t need to see He Rui to make a report. But this time he didn’t bother He Rui for work. After meeting He Rui, Han Haitao asked

: "Chairman He, I heard that for the issuance of bonds within the customs, personnel from various departments are not allowed to subscribe for their own family members. I wonder if Chairman He can make an exception?"

He Rui immediately shook his head, "It must not be opened. The issuance of bonds is a matter of the government, and the comrades responsible for subscribing bonds must be responsible for the issuance. No personnel from the Northeast government are allowed to participate."

Hearing He Rui's decisive refusal, Han Haitao sighed, "Chairman, I don't have any rich relatives. They are willing to buy because they believe in me. Speaking of which, let me guarantee..."

He Rui felt that this would definitely not be the case, "This is even more inappropriate! Director Han, if the purchase of bonds has to be guaranteed by relatives, then are they looking at individuals or our Northeastern government?"

Han Haitao was stunned, a little confused as to why He Rui was so insistent. Now the Northeast economy is doing well, and many products are sold within the customs. But the Northeast government is really short of money, so it will issue bonds. Han Haitao did not consider making money at all.

The reason for writing a letter to ask relatives to buy bonds was entirely because Han Haitao was willing to serve the Northeast government and contribute some efforts to He Rui for national liberation. He Rui's refusal made Han Haitao surprised and a little disappointed.

He Rui also saw Han Haitao's look, which further strengthened He Rui's mood. However, Han Haitao represented a large number of people, and he could never refuse the matter simply and rudely. So He Rui invited Han Haitao to his office, "Director Han,

Why do we issue bonds?”

Han Haitao replied feeling frustrated: "To raise funds."

"So people who buy our bonds, what do we want them to buy for?"

"This..." Han Haitao felt that there were many reasons, but he couldn't find a reasonable one. In the end, he could only tell what was said in some internal meetings, "To support the industrial construction of Northeast China?"

He Rui was amused, "Haha, how is that possible! People buy bonds in order to obtain bond income safely."

Han Haitao was stunned. These words were different from some statements at the internal meeting of the Department of Finance.

Seeing Han Haitao's expression, He Rui felt that something was wrong and put away his smile, "Director Han, come and tell me what was said at the publicity meeting."

After saying that, He Rui stared at Han Haitao.

Han Haitao didn't want to offend anyone, so he just wanted to find some innocuous answers to deal with it. Facing He Rui's sharp eyes, Han Haitao didn't dare to deal with it. He Rui is not the kind of Beiyang University who is aloof and doesn't understand grassroots operations.

Shuai'. Such a big stall in Northeast China was built by He Rui. Han Haitao neither dared to fool He Rui nor could he think of any words to fool He Rui.

Just when Han Haitao was in a dilemma, He Rui continued: "Comrade Han Haitao, you are a party member. I ask you to follow the party spirit and tell me the truth!"

After being told this, Han Haitao dared to make up nonsense. He told He Rui the propaganda at the Finance Department meeting in his memory.

…

Price Director Han Haitao talked with He Rui for about ten minutes and then came out. Wu Youping, who was waiting outside, was a little surprised that what big deal took so long to talk about. After Han Haitao, it was Wu Youping's turn and entered He Rui's office. Wu Youping raised the question

My own question, "Chairman, the recent bond issuance work needs to be strengthened."

"Oh. I was just going to talk to you about this." He Rui smiled.

In less than a minute, He Rui had already asked Wu Youping about his views on the forced implementation of bonds. Wu Youping naturally knew that the Ministry of Finance wanted officials at all levels to recommend bonds to their relatives and friends. Seeing that He Rui was quite unhappy about this

, Wu Youping suggested: "Chairman, how about making a direct donation? I have long wanted to donate all my family property."

He Rui was really angry and scolded him angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Wu Youping was not as intimidated as Han Haitao. On this matter, Wu Youping did not agree with He Rui's view and retorted: "Chairman, if the country is not strong and foreign countries come in, the money will not be saved. If the money is donated

If I use it as start-up capital, even if it can make the country stronger one day earlier, I feel satisfied."

He Rui knew that Wu Youping really thought this way, and he was touched and disappointed at the same time. He sighed: "It's just you who are confused, and the people in the Department of Finance are confused with you!"

Wu Youping still couldn't accept it, "The chairman refused before. I was busy at the time and didn't think much about it. Please make it clear this time."

"From the perspective of ordinary people, if we don't do decent things ourselves, who in the world will think that we are decent? Will everyone be willing to deal with dishonorable people? If we act like we are short of money, others will think that we are decent.

Lack of money. How can a normal good person lend his hard-earned money to a person who is eager to make money all over the world? From the perspective of organizational operations, brother Zongzi, you are just a top-notch person! You just made an economic activity successful.

Moral action. Although I don’t want to see Confucius, the incident of Zigong’s redemption is a good case! We must not use the standards of party members to demand ordinary people! When facing ordinary people, we have to do ordinary people’s things!”

This was not the first time He Rui’s opinion was expressed. Wu Youping fully understood He Rui’s thinking at this time, but still could not accept He Rui’s idea. So he tried to persuade: "Chairman, time waits for no one..."

"Time does not wait for you. Even if it takes longer, it only increases the difficulty. But if the road goes astray, it will take a detour. If the road goes wrong, it will go in the opposite direction. You have to circle the earth to reach your destination."

"...If it doesn't work, then we won't issue bonds and raise taxes. There won't be any controversy about this." Wu Youping could only try his best to persuade.

He Rui nodded, at least what Wu Youping said was correct. However, He Rui asked: "Tax increases must be approved at the Northeastern National Assembly. If you want to increase taxes, you have to wait until the meeting in November this year to propose a bill. And even if

What does raising taxes have to do with issuing bonds?”

Wu Youping wanted to discuss the matter with He Rui again, but he didn't know how to convince He Rui. Before Wu Youping could find an idea, He Rui asked: "Youping, the foundation of the civilized party is that party members must have the same

Ideology. In other words, communism is our ideological foundation. Please give me an answer as to whether communism is a scientific study based on economics."

"Of course." Wu Youping replied without hesitation.

"In economics, we have to talk about economic laws. Although I have said it several times, the title of the so-called economist is almost the same as that of a magician. But there is a basis for economic laws. Why do you think so when raising money?

Being so radical, you have to turn a good economic law into an impulsive reaction?!"

Wu Youping touched a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and then replied unwillingly: "Because time is too tight. This time after listening to the chairman's requirements for military production, I feel even more pressure!"

This attitude is not unique to Wu Youping, but also to comrades in the army. He Rui tried hard to explain: "Why do you think so highly of Japan? Japan has a strong social organization ability in a situation of extreme involution. But Japan's strength is also

Even in terms of social mobilization and social organization, its national strength is not strong. We can defeat it. China's advantages lie in its population size and resources, and it is also a continental and maritime country. As long as we stick to the step-by-step approach, it will not be difficult to win against Japan."

"But..." Wu Youping still couldn't extinguish the urge in his heart to advance the work as soon as possible.

He Rui could only apply pressure to force Wu Youping to calm down, "Youping, at this time, please obey the decision of the Party Central Committee. If the decision cannot be implemented, it only means that there is something wrong with the Party Central Committee!"

After being told this, Wu Youping really calmed down, mainly because he was scared. As for He Rui himself, he was very talkative. Although sometimes it was unclear what He Rui was thinking, as the work progressed, he could always

Understand. But the problem of the Party Central Committee is not He Rui's personal problem, but a collection of Central Committee members, including Wu Youping himself.

If He Rui really gives the reasons why the Party Central Committee's decision was defied, no one can stop him. Wu Youping can only reply: "Chairman, I will talk to the comrades from the Department of Finance about this matter when I get back."

Here Wu Youping had to go back and correct his work ideas. After Han Haitao said goodbye to He Rui, Han Haitao left the government office building quickly. He didn't slow down until he walked out of the compound. This was the first time in a long time that Han Haitao interacted with

He Rui talked about personal issues for so long, and felt very uneasy in his heart. Unlike the 50 people who followed He Rui to the Northeast, Han Haitao was originally just a teahouse owner in Siping, and joined He Rui's team halfway. Along with college students like Wu Youping and Zhuang Jiaxiong

There is no comparison. As for scholars like Zhao Tianlin, Lu Daoming and Han Haitao who studied in the United States, they have never even thought about comparing.

As he walked and thought about how to talk to his relatives, Han Haitao's steps became slower and slower, and finally stopped. Looking back on everything He Rui said now, not only did he not mean to blame, but he was encouraging Han Haitao and expecting Han Haitao to be more confident.

Have more self-esteem.

Han Haitao suddenly felt that what He Rui said was right. As the director of the Price Bureau, he was just a paid job. Even so, there was no need to use himself as collateral in order to fulfill the requirements of the Department of Finance for the issuance of bonds. It had nothing to do with money.

This matter is related to Han Haitao's dignity and respect.

After thinking about this, Han Haitao walked back to the office again. However, Han Haitao didn't notice it himself. He had unknowingly raised his head and chest, and walked back with a meteoric stride.

When he returned home at noon, Han Haitao invited his cousin who lived at home to have a meal together. Facing the various restaurants in the Northeast, his cousin was a little dazzled and couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect the Northeast to be so lively."

"In the past few years when Chairman He has been in power, there have been more workers, and there is no shortage of customers in restaurants." Han Haitao said, feeling a little proud in his heart. He then asked: "I remember the teahouses opened in the capital for those people who came to Beijing to take exams. I don't know.

Are you still there? The rotten pork noodles over there are really delicious."

The cousin sighed: "Brother Haitao, the restaurants in Beijing have really failed in recent years. Half of the master chefs have gone to Tianjin. Some people say that since the fall of the imperial court, even the rats have moved to Tianjin."

"

Han Haitao smiled slightly after hearing this, but didn't answer. Just seeing his cousin, he still couldn't decide. Han Haitao simply took his cousin to the Southern Restaurant opened by Huizhou merchants. The two of them asked for a single room. Han Haitao smiled and said: "Braised the North and the South is

A famous dish in the capital, this mushroom comes from Mongolia. Now that Northeast China is connected with Inner and Inner Mongolia, the business of this mushroom is very good and the taste is really good."

Braised Nanbei, also known as Braised Nanbei, is a special traditional dish in Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, belonging to Hebei cuisine. The so-called Braised Nanbei is to use Saibei mushrooms and Jiangnan bamboo shoots as the main ingredients, cut them into thin slices, and put them into a hot oil pan

Stir-fry, add some seasonings and fresh soup, bring to a boil to thicken, and pour in chicken oil to serve. This dish is silvery red in color, delicious and refreshing, and has a strong aroma.

I ordered a few dishes at random, one of which was braised northern and southern dishes. My cousin took a bite and nodded repeatedly, "It is indeed delicious. Brother, this dish must cost a lot of money."

"Don't worry, I won't be short of money if I treat you to a meal." Han Haitao said with a smile.

This time, my cousin came here on behalf of relatives of the Han family to buy Northeastern bonds. At this time, he suddenly saw Han Haitao, who had previously persuaded everyone to buy bonds, suddenly pretending to be generous, and he was puzzled. However, Han Haitao looked calm, and he was so calm.

After two days, they looked a little different. I didn't know what kind of medicine Han Haitao was selling in his gourd. So I laid out the dishes for Han Haitao, prepared to concentrate on eating, and waited for Han Haitao to take the initiative to speak.

Unexpectedly, Han Haitao never mentioned the purchase of bonds again. He was really happy to eat. He never mentioned the bonds from the beginning to the end.

After dinner, he returned to Han Haitao's residence. Han Haitao sorted out the promotional materials printed with the types of bonds and dividend methods, put them into a large brown paper bag and gave them to his cousin, and then said: "I have said everything that needs to be said, you still have

What don’t you understand?”

My cousin felt that Han Haitao was pretending like this, so he simply stayed with him until the end and said with a smile: "Brother Haitao has told me a lot in the past few days, and I understand everything."

Han Haitao nodded, "In that case, take these with you. If you are ready to buy, just write me a letter. I will arrange for someone to buy a ticket for you."

Speaking of this, Han Haitao thought of his relatives in Beijing and Tianjin, and felt a little sad in his heart, "My uncle's disease is an old one. We have some new medicines here. I sent someone to buy them. Take them with you when you go back. Also, think of my third uncle.

They send their greetings. I have not been able to go back in the past two years, and I suddenly wrote a letter home, which disturbed my family. You have to apologize to my uncle and third uncle for me."

The more Han Haitao's cousin heard about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Hearing this, Han Haitao actually didn't want to recommend any bonds to his family.
