Chapter 749: There is an Expert in the Dayu Government!
Dai Kainan returned to the company and walked straight into the finance office.
The Finance Director stood up immediately, their tone carrying a hint of excitement: "General Manager Dai, the money has arrived in the account!"
"Is it five million?"
"Yes! Exactly five million!"
Dai Kainan hurriedly leaned toward the computer, staring at the string of numbers on the screen, and finally let out a sigh of relief.
In order to recover this final payment, he had spent a full two years back and forth.
Afterwards, he returned to his own office and dialed a phone number.
"The Dayu County Government has paid us the final balance. Tang Ye had hinted earlier about discounting the payment, and the price he finally gave was exactly in line with the bottom line you gave me, so I agreed!"
On the other end of the line, there was a moment of silence before a voice came through.
"Five million? It seems there is an expert in the Dayu Government who accurately grasped the bottom line we could bear."
Dai Kainan added: "There is also good news. Judging by the County Party Secretary's tone, he supports us participating in the bidding for the education infrastructure project."
"Oh? That is indeed good news. Using fifteen million as a stepping stone to enter the education infrastructure field can serve as a consolation prize."
"By the way, do we still intend to start construction on that plot of land we acquired earlier?"
"Dayu County has been very successful in attracting investment during this period, and the development momentum should be quite good over the next few years. There is still a good profit margin for building that residential complex now."
"With your word, I feel at ease."
After hanging up the phone, Dai Kainan immediately summoned the finance staff and issued an order: "Use this five million primarily to pay the wages owed to the migrant workers; implement this as soon as possible."
The finance staff replied: "Understood, General Manager Dai, I will arrange the distribution in a moment!"
After explaining everything, Dai Kainan felt completely relieved.
But what truly made him feel excited was neither obtaining the entry ticket for the education infrastructure bidding,
nor the boss behind the scenes deciding to continue betting on investments in Dayu County,
and certainly not successfully making a connection with Ou Xiye,
but rather the tacit understanding that had quietly formed between him and Tang Ye.
In the short term, the person with the most weight in Dayu County was Ou Xiye;
but in the long term, Tang Ye's political career would clearly go further than Ou Xiye's.
From an investment perspective, Dai Kainan had long been inclined to "invest" in Tang Ye.
For Tang Ye, if he wanted to achieve more political accomplishments in Dayu County, it was also necessary to cultivate his own power base.
Through observation, Dai Kainan was a good choice.
Kaisheng Company had been able to stand firm after the turmoil involving the former County Party Secretary, and the shareholders behind it possessed considerable strength.
It is easy to add flowers to brocade, but difficult to provide charcoal in snowy weather.
Tang Ye providing aid when Kaisheng was on the verge of collapse made it easier to establish a close relationship.
To put it bluntly...
When a person is extremely hungry, even a steamed bun will be seen as a delicious delicacy!
Qiao Lin walked into the County Magistrate's office and reported softly: "County Magistrate Jiang, I just received news that the migrant workers at the Finance Bureau have withdrawn."
Jiang Anbang nodded slightly and responded: "Secretary Ou just called me; the county has reached an agreement with Kaisheng, and the remaining engineering payment has been settled at five million and already remitted to Kaisheng."
Qiao Lin looked at Jiang Anbang in surprise and pressed: "Secretary Ou agreed?"
Jiang Anbang gave Qiao Lin a look of annoyance: "If this money wasn't repaid, Dai Kainan definitely wouldn't let it go. Five million is already a rock-bottom price. I didn't expect Tang Ye to be quite resourceful; he deliberately left Dai Kainan hanging for a while, forcing Dai Kainan to compromise in the end."
At this moment, Qiao Lin cursed Dai Kainan half to death in his heart.
He had originally wanted to incite Dai Kainan to cause trouble for Tang Ye; who could have imagined that Tang Ye would directly resolve the matter properly.
Moreover, Tang Ye already had the authority to sign; after all, he was the County Magistrate in charge of finance, and even if he signed, he could just walk away after being transferred in two years;
yet Ou Xiye and Jiang Anbang both had reservations about signing.
In short, in the entire Dayu County, it was most reasonable for Tang Ye to sign this document.
"This person Tang Ye is really 'sly' in handling problems. To win people over, he actually gave out water and food to that group of troublemaking migrant workers. He's too good at grandstanding!" Qiao Lin's tone was full of disdain.
Jiang Anbang was stunned for a moment, looked at Qiao Lin with a complex expression, and reminded him solemnly: "You need to adjust your mindset properly. I know you are dissatisfied with Tang Ye, but don't show your emotions on your face. In my view, Tang Ye's approach to handling the mass incident this time was very insightful; we can learn from it in the future."
Seeing that Jiang Anbang rated Tang Ye so highly, Qiao Lin hurriedly restrained his emotions and replied with a smile: "County Magistrate Jiang, your criticism is correct; I was just too agitated."
After Qiao Lin left, Jiang Anbang silently lit a cigarette.
His mood at this moment was exceptionally complex.
He both hoped these two years would pass quickly and did not want time to go too fast.
Jiang Anbang was a smart man, and he knew very clearly: everything Tang Ye was doing now was a precious asset left for Dayu County.
These assets were also highlights of political achievement that could help one soar.
The biggest beneficiary was Ou Xiye, followed by himself.
Therefore.
No matter how Qiao Lin tried to sow discord on the side, Jiang Anbang was never led astray by him.
Even.
Jiang Anbang had always wanted to close the distance with Tang Ye.
Unfortunately.
Because their positions were naturally opposed, there was an unignorable barrier between Jiang Anbang and Tang Ye.
He envied Ou Xiye!
At the end of his career, he could still encounter Tang Ye.
A surprise reinforcement from heaven, extending his life!
……
After work on Thursday evening.
Tang Ye took an official vehicle to Yanzhou to attend a symposium held by the Municipal Organization Department.
At the meeting, Tang Ye was to give a report on the poverty alleviation achievements of Dayu County.
To put it bluntly, it was a "bragging session"!
After arriving at the hotel, the two had just put down their luggage when the doorbell rang, and Ma Ran immediately walked over to open the door.
"Minister Fang, hello!"
"You must be Xiao Ma, right!"
"Yes, please come in." Ma Ran had not expected Fang Chengxin to actually remember him, and he could not help but feel a bit excited.
"Where is County Magistrate Tang?"
"He is on the balcony talking to his wife on the phone."
"Oh, it seems I have come at a bad time!" Fang Chengxin laughed and teased himself.
Seeing Fang Chengxin enter the room, Tang Ye hurriedly said goodbye to Du Xi.
He walked in from the balcony and stepped forward quickly to shake hands with Fang Chengxin: "Minister Fang, why have you come over!"
"I came to check on the accommodation environment." Fang Chengxin looked around the room and said with regret, "The decor of this hotel is still a bit dated."
Tang Ye knew that Fang Chengxin had specifically arranged an executive suite for him, so he hurriedly said: "It is already very good, Minister Fang, thank you for your trouble."
Fang Chengxin patted Tang Ye on the shoulder and said: "Secretary Liu will be attending tomorrow's meeting in person."
Tang Ye was somewhat surprised, "Secretary Liu is attending as well! I suddenly feel a bit of pressure!"
Fang Chengxin could not help but chuckle: "Don't be so modest, do you think I don't know your level?"
