Longgang County Guesthouse has been renamed Longgang Hotel, and the main building is currently undergoing renovation.
The annex building of Friendship Hotel, renamed Friendship Building of Longgang Hotel, is also under renovation.
The entire land plus two buildings were sold to Lu Jingji for 2,000 yuan.
Because of its serious losses, heavy debts and negative assets.
Lu Jingji's takeover is a relief for the county's finances.
Lu Ming himself, of course, would not take advantage of this, but at least he was serious about his work and would definitely do a good job in boosting local employment.
If you give it to others, it's just like transferring money from left hand to right hand, and you don't know how it will be handled.
Moreover, it was Deputy Governor Gao Shaoting who took the initiative to approach me and asked me to take over, and did not go through Agent Gong.
In fact, it is obvious that Master Gong has already taken control of the overall situation, and Gao Shaoting is just trying to flatter Master Gong by offering some benefits on his own initiative.
If I don't accept it, I will offend Gao Shaoting, as if the gift is not enough.
Although, the real big shots in Longgang, of course, have their eyes on those large and small coal mines, and they really don’t care about a shabby guesthouse that is losing money.
In fact, Lu Ming was not just eyeing the coal mine. Over the past month, he had bought many plots of land around the county at very low prices, and he had also acquired shops and plots of land on both sides of the main avenues of the county.
How could the coal capital always be a small town with only a few buildings
The current investment environment is simply too bad, and there are countless casualties in coal mine contracting and mining.
As long as the atmosphere becomes slightly clearer, the rapid development here will be obvious. According to the rules of the past life, it is very likely that this city will become the city with the highest GDP in the province in the future.
After Mr. Gong took office, the real big move was to plan the construction of a passenger railway line from Longgang to the main railway trunk line. At the same time, he wanted to widen the original freight railway line, that is, to build another coal transportation line.
At noon, Lu Ming was drinking tea with several county officials in a street-side shop near the Longgang Hotel which was under renovation.
This shop was originally a jade shop, but it closed due to business failure and was bought by Lu Ming. In fact, all the shops and land on this street are now under the name of Zhujiang Industrial, and Zhujiang Industrial is a company registered in the provincial capital a long time ago. The largest shareholder is Lu Ming, who holds more than 90% of the shares. Lu Ming has registered many such shell companies in various states and provinces of the empire, and they will be activated only when needed.
The interior of the shop has been freshly painted and has become a place for drinking tea and playing cards, but it is not open to the public.
Lu Ming looked at the telegram he had just received, and then handed it to Heitou, who burned it and soaked the ashes in water.
The secret telegram from Lu Mansion in Hepu Road was the most direct coded telegram, not the kind that was simply sent and received in secret. Heitou translated it into text and gave it to Lu Ming. Lu Ming read it, and then Heitou disposed of it without leaving any trace.
It was Biju’s call back.
Lu Ming naturally told Bizhu about what happened with Liuli Palace and asked whether he should bring Liuli Palace to Donghai to see her.
Bizhu's reply was very arrogant, with only six words: Although we haven't met, I just want to ask how you are.
Obviously, Baozhu Palace does not agree with the inheritance of Liuli Palace, but after all, they are the same master, so they also hope that Liuli Palace will be safe. Bizhu should still be very happy.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming smiled. Bizhu must have felt very warm in her heart after hearing the news about the Glazed Palace.
There has been no news for hundreds of years, and everyone is waiting for the unknown legend in the endless darkness. Sometimes, I wake up suddenly, and the world seems so big, but I don’t know where to go. I am all alone, and I don’t know who to play the piano for
With tenacious faith, we only see the mediocrity of the world, as if time has already washed away all the heroes.
Now, my soulmates are still here, and we are still on the same journey together. How can I not shed tears of joy
I wonder if Biju will be shocked when she sees my telegram
Although I have never seen her drink, if I were at home, I would definitely accompany her to have a couple of drinks.
"Boss Lu, look, it looks like there's something happy going on?!" The person who spoke next to him was a middle-aged man with a middle-parted hairstyle and black-rimmed glasses. He was none other than Li Zhaoji, the former deputy director of the guesthouse.
Lu Ming had just arrived in Longgang and he took the initiative to offer the first piece of information.
Today, Li Zhaoji is the chairman of the county government's anti-smoking committee.
It's a very lucrative job. The ban on smoking means banning opium and various new drugs.
He no longer stutters as much as before. With the authority of an official, he speaks with more confidence, and the symptoms of stuttering have been alleviated a lot.
He naturally knew who he belonged to, and he stood firmly on the side, with an attitude that he would complete the tasks assigned by Agent Gong even if it meant losing his head.
There were five people drinking Gongfu tea around the tea table. Next to Li Zhaoji was Zeng Xiangfan, the chief of the left police room, a middle-aged man wearing a black police uniform and looking very majestic.
Police Left Office was the name of the earliest prototype of the police station, but in many counties of Jiangning Province today, both Police Left Office and police stations coexist.
The chief of the left police office usually serves as the chief of the guard of the county governor and also leads the police station. He is the direct superior of the police station chief and serves as a link between the upper and lower levels.
However, many police chiefs are local residents with their roots in the municipal government and provincial capital. The chiefs of the left wing of the police and even the county governors who come and go have no control over their command.
It all depends on the situation.
Judging from the current situation in Longgang, the chief of the police station is Zeng Xiangchen, who is a cousin of the chief of the left police room, Zeng Xiangfan.
In Heishan City, the two police officers are very famous and have controlled the police power in Longgang for more than ten years.
It is difficult to say what the relationship between Er Zeng and Lao Gong is, but at least, they are still very cooperative at work.
On the other side of Li Zhaoji was Smith, the president of the Imperial Bank of China's Longgang Branch. He was probably the only foreigner in the entire Longgang County before.
Lu Ming later brought in Pirlo, Blackhead and others.
Next to Smith is Lee Yoo-haeng, chairman of the Construction Committee, a newly promoted official like Lee So-gi.
Lu Ming was chatting and joking with them. Actually, there was no particular topic to talk about. But when Li Youxing mentioned that he was going to implement the "Bright and Clean Shop Plan" on both sides of the main streets in the county, Lu Ming listened attentively.
The reason I came to the county town was because the case of Lao Chai and his gang would take time to go to trial, and Cui Xiaodong and Huang Guirong had to keep an eye on it.
As for the Lu family mansion in Sansha, he was so distracted at night that he could not have a peaceful rest. So he decided to come to the county town to handle some business and stay there tonight. Moreover, he was going back to Donghai tomorrow. Although there was nothing to do in the municipal government and the parliament, he wanted to go back to see Bizhu.
I just wanted to keep in touch with a few officials, and I didn't want to talk about anything substantive.
Unexpectedly, Li Youxing, the ambitious chairman of the Construction Committee, mentioned his plan to change the appearance of the county.
This is the so-called "Clean Shop Plan".
The general content is that the shops on both sides of the two main east-west and north-south roads in the county town will be demolished and rebuilt in batches, and all of them will be built into two- or three-story buildings. The Construction Committee can provide a small amount of funds and help them apply for interest-free loans.
Lu Ming listened and nodded. In fact, in his previous life, during the early days of reform and opening up, some counties had had similar plans. At that time, they gave away land for free to develop new streets in new districts in order to attract people to build shops. However, there were few responses, so in the end, an administrative order was issued, requiring party members and cadres to take the lead, and units to give targets, and someone had to build the shops. Naturally, those who were forced to build the buildings became rich after ten or twenty years.
Requiring party members to take the lead in buying stocks is also a story of that era, and those original shares eventually earned returns of thousands or even tens of thousands of times.
Li Youxing's plan is similar in nature.
"It's a pity that the Construction Committee has no money, and the County Office has no money either..." Li Youxing sighed, "So this plan is just a fantasy of mine, and I haven't told Governor Gong about it yet."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "There are so many coal mines in Longgang. How much tax and mining fee do they pay every year? The county office is so poor. Where can we seek justice?"
Li Youxing shook his head.
This topic was too sensitive, so no one spoke and they all picked up their teacups to drink tea.
Lu Ming said, "I remember that in the mining rights agreement for my mine, there is a local construction fee in the annual mining fee list, which accounts for about one-third of the mining fee. The mining bureau can't take all the money to build the urban area. That's not reasonable. If we don't keep the majority for Longgang, it shouldn't be too much to keep half of it, right?"
Li Youxing's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Director Li, I agree with you going to ask for the money. You can file a report and ask Agent Gong to go and ask for it! If it really doesn't work and the Mining Bureau refuses to give it, we can file a lawsuit. The county office will come forward and sue the Municipal Mining Bureau, and I will be the attorney for the case."
Several people were stunned after hearing this. Is this even possible
Although it was not common for local administrative agencies to sue each other, Lu Ming did not think it was wrong. It happened occasionally in Western countries in his past life, and it was not uncommon in the East China Sea today. He pondered and said, "I will go back to the East China Sea tomorrow and think about this matter carefully. I will start it when I come back."
According to Li Youxing's plan, more than half of the shops that benefit will be his own, with government funding and interest-free loans. Where can you find such a good thing
I was originally thinking about renovating these shops, and now someone is here to help, isn't that good
However, after thinking about it, Lu Ming said, "It's not good for me to always come forward to fight this kind of lawsuit. When the time comes, I will invite a big lawyer from Donghai, and you can discuss it later."
Move Liu Hanming over here and fight this lawsuit properly.
Liu Hanming is very capable. If he were a Westerner, he would have no problem becoming a barrister today. Unfortunately, he stays in Beiguan and has never been involved in any of the highly-anticipated lawsuits. His assessment score growth rate is pitifully slow.
If I could create more of these sensitive overseas cases for him, it would be of great help in improving his rank.
Lu Ming looked at the stunned people again and was about to speak.
Over there, Li Zhaoji rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Well, what do you need? Boss Lu, if I can help, I will definitely help."
Li Youxing was stunned. It was clearly his own organization's business, but this guy had taken the lead. He quickly suppressed the surprise on his face and said, "Boss Lu, I still need your guidance on everything, but if we really have to go to court, it would be better for our Construction Committee to handle it, right? Shouldn't the local construction fees withheld by the Mining Bureau be transferred to the Construction Committee's account?"
Lu Ming smiled. Li Youxing could only bite the bullet and bear the brunt. He felt that such a ridiculous matter could not really be handled by the county government. What would that be? However, what he said actually made sense.
To be honest, I didn't mean to cause trouble for the Hu family, but I haven't received any response regarding the Zuodun Mine yet, not to mention that I want more than that.
What's more, the businessmen who came to annoy him were most likely instigated by the Hu family's outsiders.
We still have to let them continue to get to know themselves.
