As the afternoon progressed, things became busier. Before Zhang Yunmi could finish reading, the staff knocked on the door again and came in.
"Report! The Dumo elder is already waiting in the small conference room. I made an appointment with you yesterday!" Liu Xiang immediately remembered the appointment and without delay, knocked on the table with his hand to "wake up" Zhang Yunmi, who was looking at the materials, said, "If you are interested, take it back and read it at night. We are going to have a small meeting now, so you can come too."
There are many things among the elders that are not suitable to be discussed in a place where naturalized people come and go. Except for those who break in directly like Tintin, under normal circumstances it will inevitably involve black technology, black policies and other things about the origin of the 500 Saints. If you want to discuss it, you will have to discuss it. Go directly to a small independent conference room on the top floor - of course, if there are too many participants, just clear the floor of the large conference room. Dumo had made an appointment to come today to "correct" the financial part of a speech written by Liu Xiang.
In the small conference room, Du Mo was not idle either. He happened to use this free time to translate some documents - electronic documents were becoming paper-based, and the urgency of Chinese culture was getting stronger and stronger. The big library roughly drafted a huge The "Civilization Map" is roughly divided into two major parts: Social Science Cloud and Zike Tree. It is obvious that some things in natural science require other things as prerequisites, such as silicon steel and ferrosilicon technology for power generation equipment, and three acid and two acids. Alkali is like a modern chemical, but social science does not have this problem, so it can only be displayed in a cloud shape. What Du Mo is translating is not purely economic theory literature, but more specific articles on financial risk management. For him, it is both a translation job and an extended reading of recent work. And like Liu Xiang, who has so much administrative work, he will receive document translation requests from the big library from time to time, but the original translation of the "Dragon Slaying Art" documents based on optical communication and quantum communication technology can no longer be seen. Big Books What is more urgent for the library is the translation of literature on various technologies that may be illuminated by technological development in the last 50 years.
When Du Mo saw Liu Xiang coming with his "secretary" Zhang Yunmi, he didn't make any weird expressions like other busybodies. It was as if Zhang Yunmi was really just here to do a clerk's job. He took it indifferently and nodded to say hello. The formal conversation started.
"There is generally nothing wrong with what you wrote." Dumo got straight to the point.
That is, there are still many "detailed" issues... Liu Xiang's mind helped him catch up on the half-sentence he had swallowed.
"Your idea in this paragraph is mainly to explain to the naturalized cadres roughly what currency is, and the few examples you used are also very common examples. But when it comes to the silver dollar we want to promote now, it involves the 'abolition of the two yuan reforms' "You need to change what you said in this paragraph." Du Mo opened the folded page and pointed at the paragraph painted with a red pen.
Liu Xiang read the beginning and remembered what this paragraph was about. It is nothing more than a cliché, saying that currency is not wealth for the government. The government does not aim at accumulating currency, and the idea of private financial management cannot be used to influence the government's working ideas. Liu Xiang thought for a while and didn't think there was any problem with this. "Isn't this a time-tested truth?" The question in Liu Xiang's heart almost blurted out.
"This paragraph is theoretically correct, but you failed to distinguish the premise for the establishment of this theory. This theory is completely correct for modern countries, that is, for countries that have the right to mint money and can issue credit currency according to their own needs. . But you have to note that we are promoting silver dollars and precious metal currencies. Although we are also promoting banknotes at the same time, the current banknotes are based on silver dollars. You also mentioned earlier that precious metals are naturally brought by currency. There are three major drawbacks. If you look at your speech against this, it may mislead the naturalized cadres."
Yes, if the naturalized civilian cadres really regard "not accumulating currency as the purpose" as a golden rule, they are likely to show contempt for the silver coins and silver dollar certificates being promoted in their administrative style, which may have a negative impact on the "new currency" Have a bad impact on your credit.
Liu Xiang slapped his head and said "Ouch", unaware that he had developed this habit when his boss was dragging him word by word while revising his thesis. Liu Xiang's mind was racing, and he struggled repeatedly with the phrase "correct but inappropriate". After a while, he said: "Change it to 'not accumulating currency as the sole purpose', and then add a paragraph emphasizing that the government pays more attention to currency." The role of liquidity and money in promoting physical production?”
Du Mo still had a serious face, nodded slightly, turned to the last page, and said: "I also want to emphasize that the most important thing for the government is to ensure the credibility of the currency. I have already drafted a paragraph, you can refer to it."
Only then did Liu Xiang feel something was wrong - it felt like he was being sprayed by his boss in the laboratory! Liu Xiang looked strangely as he read the passage written by Du Mo. He felt that the writing was indeed more professional and rigorous. However, he also thought about how many of those naturalized civilian cadres could read each word of these precious words. Can you read it carefully and understand it well?
"He is indeed a professional! If you have any questions, don't be polite, brother. I'm just here to be a student, so just ask!" Liu Xiang simply accepted this low profile and asked for advice. According to some reviews, this Dumo man, as his name suggests, has an independent temperament and is not very good at dealing with interpersonal relationships. Even the Wudaokou group always commented on him as an "academic geek." Thinking of this, The weird feeling in Liu Xiang's heart can naturally be relieved - maybe this person came to time travel because of his personality.
"This is the biggest problem. The others are all minor issues, and they can be changed or not. For example, in this paragraph, when you talk about GDP, you use the classic simple world model of wheat flour bread. I think most of the naturalized cadres now They are from all over the south. There are very few naturalized cadres in the north, and bread is not something they come into contact with on a daily basis. You can replace it with rice, rice wine, hard liquor..." Du Mo also continued to point out mistakes unceremoniously.
Liu Xiang was busy for a while, and Zhang Yunmi also took a shorthand note of the conversation to make it easier for her and Liu Xiang to revise the manuscript after the meeting. After finalizing some explanations and conceptual explanations, Dumo stood up and left without any more courtesy.
"Xiao Zhang, why don't you talk about this?" Liu Xiang suddenly asked Zhang Yunmi after saying goodbye to Du Mo at the stairs.
"...Forget it, it's okay to talk, but I'm afraid of the questions later. I haven't fully understood this knowledge yet." Zhang Yunmi thought for a moment and then declined. As a mainstay, she is certainly not afraid of speaking in public, but there are not many people who can dance, do stand-up comedy, and answer witty questions.
"Or just talk without answering." Liu Xiang said very "wittily", "If you have any questions, write a note, and then summarize it and answer it in a unified way. This is more efficient."
After completing the course discussion on financial issues with Dumo, Liu Xiang met with the cadres of the municipal office responsible for ditching and dredging work and listened to relevant reports. Although it was somewhat difficult without a ditch map, Lin Baiguang instructed to start dredging the Liumai Canal first. This is not only because the Liumai Canal is the main drainage system in Guangzhou, but most importantly because the information on the Liumai Canal is the most abundant in the Grand Library, and these five channels are the main drainage canals. In theory, all open ditches and underground canals discharge to this in five channels. As long as the six-veined canal is cleared, you can follow the clues to find other channels according to the drainage outlets on the channel - whether it is an open ditch or an underground ditch.
In addition to the information collected from the big library, Lin Baiguang also found out the laborers who participated in the dredging work from the yamen's archives. Combined with the office clerks who had handled the dredging work, he conducted on-site surveys based on their memories. Ditch routes and outfall locations
"Currently, 5,705 meters of drainage channels have been explored, including 1,961 meters of culverts. 2,833 meters have been cleared." The cadres who reported the report said that there are still more than 1,000 meters of culverts whose direction is roughly known, but further investigation and dredging cannot be done because there are houses above the channels. "Most of these channels are not large channels. They are very narrow and cannot be operated directly in the channel. They must be uncovered."
“Why not demolish the illegal structures?”
"Many homeowners have obtained land deeds from Ming government officials..." Cadres also felt embarrassed because the ditches had been occupied for a long time, and the government offices themselves were not clear about it. Either they were confused or there was some exchange of interests, and they all obtained formal land deeds. . Some land deeds are more than a hundred years old. Now it is suddenly announced that the land occupied by this house is illegal and must be demolished, which may arouse the dissatisfaction of the people.
In order to appease the people, all the house and land deeds issued by the Ming Dynasty government were recognized after entering the city. Now if a house is to be expropriated, corresponding land acquisition fees must be paid. This is not a small amount of money, and it is a problem for Liu Xiang, who is financially strapped and undergoing currency restructuring. This expense was simply not included in his budget.
"...Especially because we don't have ditch maps at the moment. The specific directions of many ditches are unclear, and we don't know which houses should be demolished..."
Ditch map! Liu Xiang couldn't help but think of the murder case of Wang DaNiao, which was still unknown so far - someone killed him and took away Gou Tu. What is the picture? Not to mention what the picture is, without this picture, it is impossible to uncover the city of Guangzhou and take a look.
After the cadres from the municipal office left, Liu Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "How was it? You must have experienced the difficulty of grassroots work."
Zhang Yunmi nodded and said seriously: "Uncle Liu, you are right, it is complicated, but you must do it seriously..."
"Not only must you be serious, but you must also be smart and think clearly." Liu Xiang pointed to his head, "Next, we will meet with the cadres responsible for rectifying the custom industry. This is an important task for us at the moment." (To be continued.) .)
