Chapter 1: The Tea Garden Dispute

There is a room in the east wing where there is a famous figure in the Zheng family in modern times. Among them, a man in military uniform with the rank of colonel attracted Bai Yu's attention. He walked in front of him and saw that the man was named Zheng Rongmian. He died at the end of the last century at the age of 78.

Experts look at the tricks. The number of troops where Zheng Rongmian is located and "has been in a guard" has aroused Bai Yu's imagination. Just as he was about to ask questions, Zheng Shoufu has stepped forward and took the initiative to introduce:

"He is my uncle and brother. He served as a guard with the old leader of Du in the 1940s and 1950s. Later, he kept in touch while he was transferred to the Xuncheng Guard District. When he was sick, he was arranged by the Du family. When he died, the Du family also sent people to pay their respects and attended the funeral throughout the journey."

The Du family that Zheng Shoufu mentioned is the Lingnan family that is powerful and independent!

Bai Yuhe said, "Old Du has always loved soldiers like his sons, and has feelings and righteousness. Anyone who has followed him will give him a thumbs up and praise him. Being able to serve his side is the glory and blessing of the Zheng family!"

Zheng Shoufu smiled and said, "How many lifetimes have you been able to repair it!" He turned his head and glanced at the accompanying staff standing outside. The room was too small to squeeze in, and said softly, "Our Zheng family has a tea garden. Every year when the first spring is picking the first-hand tea, the third young master will come to try it out. Please take the time to accompany Secretary Bai?"

The Du San son mentioned in Lingnan area refers to Du Yechun, the son of Du Jianyin, the current member of the bureau and deputy director of the National People's Congress. He ranks third among the children of the Du family by age, but he is actually a leader in the "Ye" generation and the core of the family.

Why is this?

The Du family is very particular about surnames. Only the legitimate son is ranked according to the rules of the genealogy. For example, only Du Jianyin uses the word "Jian" and Du Yechun uses the word "Ye", which indicates that the Guangzheng Du family was inherited. In addition, even the eldest daughter who Du Lao loved most during his lifetime cannot use this sequence.

Duyechun is seven or eight years older than Zhan Xiaotian and Bai Yu, who are middle-aged and now serve as deputy governor in Dongwu. His position is neither high nor low, and he may not reach the height of his father Du Jianyin, but it should be fine if he is in the eve of retirement.

According to the Du family's saying "the male leads to the outside and the female leads to the inside", Du Jianyin has a certain say in foreign exchanges and interpersonal relationships. It is not bad if he uses tea tasting opportunities to make friends and talk.

Not abrupt, but also very natural.

"Okay, please notify Seoul in advance when the tea garden will cook green. I will definitely come here to enjoy the money if I have time." Bai Yu agreed happily.

Following the corridor to the living area behind the ancestral hall, the tea room has been decorated with exquisite tea sets, eight different kinds of tea pots lined up, and eight slim and sweet-looking tea girls sit behind them. In front of them is a handmade red clay stove specializing in making tea.

"Their surname is Zheng, and they are all tea artists trained by the family tea gardens." Zheng Shoufu said proudly.

Bai Yu asked while sitting down to taste tea: "Which mountain is the tea garden? It must be quite large, right?"

Zheng Shoufu said: "The northern foot of Luojialing at the northern end has a scale... It has not changed for decades after it expanded at the beginning of this century, and it has maintained this scale."

If the ordinary leader was just chatting, the topic passed in a flash, but Bai Yu keenly heard something in Zheng Shoufu's words and asked:

"The family is committed to the deep cultivation of industries in a certain field. Under normal circumstances, the total output value can double every 20 years, and it can be pro-cyclical or even three or five times. With the Zheng family's complete talent training system, the fried tea is loved by the family. It should not be based on a certain business philosophy to maintain the scale unchanged?"

Zheng Jiafu pondered for a moment and said concisely: "No... please Secretary Bai tastes tea."

While Qing chatting lightly, he drank steaming tea, and he felt refreshed after several sweats. Bai Yu raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and then said goodbye to refuse lunch and returned.

The whole process was like discussing with Wang Xinkui yesterday, and it was just like going to the grassroots to chat about family matters, and it was like visiting and drinking tea.

But the significance is beyond the comparison of "Sanlong Half-Day Tour", which is the largest local clan in the area of ​​Sanlong.

When he returned to the municipal government compound, Lu Xiaochen had just gotten out of the car and came up again - he seemed to have been wandering around the compound all morning, and reported that the mobilization meeting had been completed. There were two situations that he wanted to ask for instructions with Minister Min.

Bai Yu nodded and said, "Go to the office, that... Seoul is here together, and I'll ask you if you have something to do."

Min Xuejun has been waiting for news in the office. As a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, he must pay attention to his image and not look like Lu Xiaochen is impatient.

The two briefly reported on the situation of presiding over the mobilization meeting of all cadres and employees of the port system at the city and district levels in the morning:

Min Xuejun announced that the Municipal Standing Committee decided to transfer six comrades from the Municipal Bureau to the Takinkou Port and Scotland Office under the Port Management Committee. The nature of civil servants remains unchanged and the treatment is based on the Port Management Committee. At the same time, the port system organization reform plan was announced. In the future, the personnel of the Municipal Bureau and District Bureau will focus more on on-site inspection and supervision of the port in the future, and more than 70% will be gradually transferred to the port supervision brigade to realize the functional transformation from data report statistics to strengthening the intensity of supervision.

Lu Xiaochen made a mobilization report, encouraging cadres and employees to actively sign up for the Port and Side Office, pointing out that the port system is a pilot project for the city to deepen institutional reform, and can only succeed but not fail. Therefore, it is recommended that comrades not be lucky, and seek the direction of career development without waiting or decisively adjusting their ideas.

After reporting here, Lu Xiaochen said carefully after the two exchanged glances:

"In order to accumulate the development of cadres and employees to actively register and solve the worries of their comrades, after asking Minister Min, I promised two things at the mobilization meeting. One is to consider the route issue, any comrades who voluntarily register for the work of the Hong Kong and the South China Office can enjoy a one-time ** subsidy of 20,000 yuan, but half of it will be refunded if transferred back to the city within three years; the other is to promise that the total income of the Hong Kong and the South China Office will not be lower than the original unit within three years, otherwise the difference will be filled by the municipal bureau. Secretary Bai, these two promises... can you make a report and approve the Caizheng?"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "No problem! It's not a problem to move a job location well. It's not a bad idea to spend a little money to compensate. The problems that money can solve are not a problem. But it should be clear that the two promises are only for those who actively sign up. In other words, if you don't register, the municipal bureau will not count. Also, those who sign up for the port supervision brigade are not enjoyed. First, they have field subsidies, and second, they will establish a performance appraisal mechanism in the future, and the income is directly linked to work results."

The meaning is profound. Min and Lu Xiaochen were secretly shocked. They foresee the guiding ideology and concept of the municipal party secretary's large-scale institutional reform next year, that is, the agency is not allowed to raise idle people, and every cadre and employee must have something to do!

Min Xuejun said: "There is another operational problem. The Organization Department asked if I should wait until the Management Committee is in the market to withdraw from the post or to withdraw first and then enter? I have never encountered similar situations before, and the Organization Department was at a loss."

"On Monday, let the Management Committee do the matter of resignation slowly," Bai Yu said, "Don't be afraid of being suspended. Just push the time for resignation forward according to the actual time. The main consideration is that the Management Committee needs to obtain approval from both the Port Department and the Provincial Organization Department, and it will take more than one or two days to delay it, but the Municipal Organization Department has been hanging it, which can easily lead to repeated resignation errors."

"Oh oh oh that's it."

Min Xuejun actually never dealt with it, so he said it was a long way to go. As the head of the organization department who took over the middle, he was not very clear about the organization and personnel procedures.

After Min Lu and the others left, Bai Yu turned to ask Yue Seoul who was sitting in the corner just now:

"About the Zheng family's tea garden in Luojialing, when it comes to the fact that it has not expanded in 20 years, Zheng Jiafu seems to have a hidden secret. Tell me why?"

Yue Seoul hesitated slightly: "If the patriarch doesn't say it, he doesn't want to cause trouble, so he distracts Secretary Bai's energy, so... I respect the patriarch's meaning."

Bai Yu smiled: "It's okay, it's okay. We are the only one now, and we won't make records. As soon as you say it, I will hear it."

Seeing that the municipal party secretary insisted on asking clearly, Yue Seoul had to say:

"The Luojialing is suitable for planting tea trees in the large and small mountains in the Mulong area. The patriarch said that the Zheng family tea garden is on the northern foot of the mountain. In fact, the southern foot of Tujia, which has better water and soil and sunshine, is controlled by the Tujia family. It is precisely because it has not been able to expand one inch of land out in these 20 years."

Bai Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise: "The Tu family also has a tea garden? I haven't heard of it."

Yue Seoul shook his head and said, "The Tu family doesn't grow tea... The Tu family abandoned the entire Nanlu Circle and forced the Zheng family tea garden to pay a sum of money every year."

"Huh, what's the reason?"

"The Tu family said that the water and soil in the southern foothills are better. If you contract someone else to grow tea, the business will be booming. At that time, the Zheng family tea garden will suffer a fatal blow. Although Zheng's influence in the Mulong family is far superior to the Tu family and is also a relative, he knows that it is right. Who planted tea trees? If you don't play conspiracies with you, you will compete in the market. If you lose, you have nothing to say. Therefore, after weighing the trade-offs, you will pay the money by obediently."

Bai Yu sneered and said, "You can blackmail a large amount of money every year by relying on half of the barren mountain, which has opened your eyes again! But the Zheng family has a good relationship with the Lingnan family. Why didn't you think of a way to circle Nanlu here? Isn't it just a whole lot of money to cut off the Tu family's wealth?"

Yue Hancheng lowered his voice and said, "It is involved in the internal conflicts of the Lingnan family. The eldest daughter of the Tu family is surrounded by the Tu family. The Zheng family has been fighting secretly for decades! The legitimate son believes that the legitimate son is the greatest, so how can a woman speak? He always wants to hold the family's wealth and power. The eldest daughter thinks that the legitimate son is the designated management of the old man, and the legitimate son has obtained too much. Don't be too greedy. Specifically, the dispute between Luojialing tea garden reflects the stalemate situation of the two sides. Does the third son of the Du family come to drink tea every year? No matter how fragrant the tea in the Zheng family is, it is impossible for the dignified vice governor to be obsessed with this. He is here to support the Zheng family and warn the Tu family!"

"There is a complex relationship behind the small tea garden, interesting and interesting."

Bai Yu said in a flashing tone.

Yue Seoul felt that he had said too much just now, and he laughed and stopped talking.

After a while, Bai Yu said, "Tomorrow... the day after tomorrow, Seoul went to Zheng's house and asked how to deal with the cremation of Zheng Ahua's body. The body cannot be frozen all the time. It's safe to get buried, right?"
