Originally, he could have just walked away. Anyway, this matter didn't seem to be very dangerous. [Read the latest chapter] But Ji Qili is a very cautious person. Anyway, it is not troublesome to report, and then it has nothing to do with him.
This call was made to Wu Mu.
"...How about it? Is it useful to you?"
"Very useful." Wu Mu simply replied, "Although I don't know who this person is yet, it is necessary to check."
After hanging up the phone, he wrote down the incident in his work notebook. Then he pulled the bell rope. A female political security officer wearing the rank insignia of a political security corporal appeared at the door. She stood up straight in accordance with the internal affairs regulations of the General Administration of Political Security and waited for instructions.
Her uniform fit her perfectly, but it was too skinny. Wu Mu's eyes wandered over her Soviet-style uniform and skirt, and he ordered:
"Send this document to the Operations Department," he looked at his watch. "I ordered: in one hour, conduct a surprise inspection of the indigenous personnel in the Wenlan River Remediation Project section outside the south gate of the demonstration farm. They were acting suspiciously and did not carry their identities. All personnel with certificates or who are not on the labor roster will be detained.”
According to the rules, this order should be issued by the Director of Operations. But now he is personally directing the political security personnel in Chengmai to launch a comprehensive purge operation against "dangerous elements" in the county. At this time, Wu Mu can act on his behalf.
Although the Operations Division of the General Political Security Bureau has operational personnel, it does not have an organized armed force. Large-scale operations must be carried out with the assistance of the police and the military. Wu Mu called Mu Min again and mobilized the security company stationed outside Bairen City to assist in the operation.
"I will send someone to deliver the permission immediately. Please inform Li Yayang first to prepare for dispatch."
Using the military has become a very sensitive matter. After the maid's death, troops above the company level must not only report to the Military Affairs Directorate in advance to obtain permission for the transfer, but also report to the Secretariat of the Executive Committee and the Office of the Speaker of the Senate.
This matter could be big or small, Wu Mu could just file the report directly: It is not a big deal that Chu Qing has a few old acquaintances, even if they were working together in the Gou family at the time, it would not explain the problem - the two brothers of the Gou family worked for them back then. There are many thugs, slaves, and servants working in the time-traveling group, and they all may know Chu Qing.
But thinking about the recently obtained information that Gou Chengxuan sent people to infiltrate Lingao, he compared the two. There is probably something fishy in it. It was on this basis that he ordered the search to begin immediately.
After dealing with these things, Wu Mu opened another file on the table and studied it carefully - compared to Chu Qing's old acquaintance who suddenly appeared, he had a more important and more difficult matter to deal with. manage.
Wu Nanhai felt very relaxed and happy after Ji Qili left. After smoking a cigar, he took Chu Qing to the farm cafe. This place has now become the most important third property of the farm.
As the only leisure facility in this time and space that meets the standards of the old time and space, the cafe has been favored by the elders. After the Life Secretary arrived, the sudden burst of requests for leisure and entertainment from the elders made the farm cafe full - it was the safest place and the environment was very good.
This small cafe immediately fell into the contradiction between "backward..." and "increasing...". Apparently, expansion of the cafe is imminent.
But Wu Nanhai is not very enthusiastic about expansion. The Senate was extremely vigilant about the private industries of the senators. After Li Mei's cooperative was nationalized, all industries belonged to "all the senators."
For Wu Nanhai, the cafe was originally opened on a whim, purely to "serve the elders." In fact, it is a state-owned enterprise model of "material allocation" and "profit handover". There is not much benefit to him personally and to the agricultural department itself - this is not the job of the Agricultural Committee at all - but it adds a lot of business burdens.
Expanding the scale can certainly make the business better, but it is a burden for the People's Committee on Agriculture and its elders.
The senators clamored for the expansion and improvement of the café, but the People's Commissariat of Agriculture stood still. Xiao Zishan quickly realized the disadvantages.
Satisfying the elders, making the elders happy, and serving the elders are the most basic goals of the office. Since this cafe is so popular, the office has the obligation to keep it open.
In order for Wu Nanhai to continue to operate happily, there must be certain benefits.
After talking one by one with the main figures of the Executive Committee and the Senate, Xiao Zishan and Wu Nanhai had a face-to-face conversation in the office of the Committee of Agriculture.
"...It would be great if the General Office is willing to fund the expansion. But the matter of the cafe is too cumbersome. I would rather the General Office take over directly." Wu Nanhai was more sincere when he said this. He was indeed interested in running a cafe. Getting a little fed up.
"Of course the General Office can take it over. But don't you think it would be a pity to give up such a place that faces the public?" Xiao Zishan said, "The Farm Cafe is already a brand."
Wu Nanhai originally wanted to say, "The brand belongs to everyone, not me personally." But then he thought that this statement included an expression of dissatisfaction, and could easily be interpreted as "The brand belongs to me, so I will work hard." Word spread was detrimental to his reputation.
"You see, it is precisely because the Agricultural Committee has such a facility to serve the elders that the Agricultural Committee is so high in the minds of the elders. When everyone talks about the demonstration farm, they will think of you."
Of course Wu Nanhai knew the meaning of this gentle touch: there are still several positions vacant on the executive committee. After the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign is over, these positions will have to be subject to by-elections in the next six years. At this time when we are about to talk about "democracy", how can we isolate ourselves from the elders?
Then Xiao Zishan made another suggestion: The operating model should still adopt the model of a state-owned enterprise - of course, it is impossible to engage in any privatization process such as joint-stock reform at this stage. But he promised to try to expand the farm cafe's financial authority.
After the restructuring, the Farm Café became an independent accounting project under the Committee of Agriculture and was responsible for its own profits and losses. Material allocation and personnel use were no longer provided free of charge by the Committee of Agriculture but were settled in cash at market prices. After deducting operating costs and future business taxes from operating income, the remaining net profit follows a 30-70 split model: 30% is retained in the cafe's accounts as capital for business expansion, and 70% is turned over to the state treasury.
"Of course, the agricultural committee is actually responsible for the fund management of 30% of the profits, and the incoming and outgoing accounts must be clear."
"I understand this, otherwise it would become a small treasury of the Committee of Agriculture." Wu Nanhai nodded repeatedly.
Xiao Zishan said: "Yes, we need to pay attention to the problem of small treasury and not make the mistake of small groupism. However, as long as the money is spent on projects that serve the elders, it is reasonable."
So the plan to expand the cafe was decided. In the past, materials and labor were provided by the Council of Agriculture, but now they must be settled in cash. Of course Wu Nanhai cannot just misappropriate public funds and materials allocated to the Agriculture Committee to the cafe. When he was worrying about this matter,
Wu Di, director of the credit department of Delong Bank, came to visit in person. As soon as he came to the door, he offered to provide a low-interest loan to the farm cafe.
As the director of the credit department, even if he is the director of the credit department of a state-owned bank, finding loan projects is still Wu Di's main job. The vast majority of loan projects are related to agriculture. Many projects of "Tiandihui" customers such as farmland improvement and new crop use are supported by loans provided by Delong. Wu Di is a frequent visitor to the Ministry of Agriculture.
"Loan -" Wu Nanhai pondered for a few minutes. Having a loan would of course solve the problem of lack of funds, but a loan involves the basic principle of mortgage, unless it is a policy loan or the like.
"We have no collateral," Wu Nanhai said. "It seems inappropriate to use a cafe as a mortgage - no matter how small a farm cafe is, it is still a state-owned enterprise..." He obviously does not have the power to privately mortgage a state-owned enterprise to a bank, although The banks themselves are also state-owned enterprises.
"It doesn't matter." Wu Di said, "Since the farm cafe itself has future profit commissions, just use the future profit commissions as a guarantee."
"May I?"
Wu Di nodded: "Of course. I went to Cheka to check the business status and income and expenditure statement of the farm cafe. The business situation is very good."
"Are you here under Xiao Zishan's entrustment?" Wu Nanhai asked about Wu Di's timely visit.
"No, the General Office has no control over the Finance Director's Department." Wu Di said with a smile, "He just told me that there is such a loan opportunity - and this loan project is very good."
After the loan was negotiated, the farm cafe expansion project officially began.
Zhang Xingpei is responsible for the structure of the cafe expansion, and Li Xiaolu is responsible for the surrounding landscape design. This is also the second commercial construction activity of Lingao Construction Corporation in Lingao after serving the church. Everything from design to construction is free.
The new farm cafe adopts a simple and easy-to-build wooden structure house. In addition to expanding the indoor business area, the outdoor space of the wooden open-air balcony has also been increased. It allows the elders to enjoy the breeze and sunshine in the open air on sunny days.
According to the plan: all the additional indoor business areas will use high-back train-style seats with better privacy. Instead of using large gas lamps for lighting, each table has a glass candle holder, and small colorful candles are lit when there are guests. The tables are decorated with beautiful small vases, freshly picked every day from the farm garden. Pictures of landscape paintings were hung on the walls. If you add in the slow and melodious music that will be played in the future, it will be very pseudo-petty bourgeois. v! ~!
