Chapter 4056

When Su Xinghui arrived in the capital, he first went to Lu Zhenghong's house. He wanted to pick up Lu Xiaoya and the child to return to Linshan together, as it was time for work. That night, he would stay at Lu Zhenghong's house, and the next morning the family would go to Linshan together.

That night, Lu Zhenghong also specifically took time to go home and have a meal with Su Xinghui. No matter how busy he was, since his son-in-law had come and his daughter and grandson were leaving the next day, he had to go home to have a meal with them. No matter how high-ranking a cadre one is, family affection is still needed.

This also left Su Xinghui feeling reflective. An official as small as Xue Qin had already forgotten family affection, yet an official as high-ranking as Lu Zhenghong still valued it so much.

After the meal, Lu Zhenghong chatted with Su Xinghui in the study for a while because he wanted to hear about Su Xinghui's observations from this trip. Lu Zhenghong was now in a high position and didn't understand grassroots information as clearly as before. Even if he sent inspection teams down, they might not be able to get the most accurate information. Instead, Su Xinghui could get the most accurate information.

Lu Zhenghong was very concerned about grassroots information, which could affect high-level decision-making. One must know that high-level decision-making is not easy; any small policy change could affect many people.

Lu Zhenghong first asked about the situation in the Xingfu disaster area. Su Xinghui reported the post-disaster reconstruction situation in the Xingfu disaster area to Lu Zhenghong. The post-disaster reconstruction in the Xingfu disaster area was quite smooth, which also satisfied Lu Zhenghong. He had also inspected the disaster area last year and was quite shocked by the disaster situation.

Lu Zhenghong had always loved the people like his own children, and he also hoped that the disaster area could be successfully rebuilt.

Lu Zhenghong asked, "Is the central government's appropriation for post-disaster reconstruction in the disaster area enough?"

Su Xinghui said, "Whether it's enough is hard to say; it depends on what level the reconstruction is built to."

Lu Zhenghong laughed and scolded, "You kid, still playing coy with me. What level should post-disaster reconstruction be built to? It's enough to let the people in the disaster area restore normal work and life. This reconstruction work is not a matter of one day or one night; it cannot be accomplished overnight, but is a long-term process."

Su Xinghui smiled and nodded, "Currently, the appropriation for post-disaster reconstruction is enough. In addition, there is aid from various provinces and donations from major charitable organizations as an effective supplement, which is why the reconstruction work in the disaster area is so fast. Besides these, the investment attraction work in the disaster area is also proceeding relatively smoothly, which is conducive to the disaster area restoring production and restoring hematopoietic function."

Lu Zhenghong nodded slightly, "Sigh, some people always say that the central government's appropriation is not enough and hope that the central government can add appropriation. I think they are insatiable."

Lu Zhenghong recognized Su Xinghui's judgment because Su Xinghui was now a very mature cadre, and his judgment of the situation was far beyond some provincial and ministerial-level cadres.

In this post-disaster reconstruction, some cadres responsible for post-disaster reconstruction always reached out to the central government for money, saying that the money was not enough, which made Lu Zhenghong very suspicious: why was the money enough in some places, but always not enough in others?

Now that he heard Su Xinghui's words, Lu Zhenghong understood, and he also made up his mind that he would focus on supervising post-disaster reconstruction work and never let this work become a disaster area for corruption.

Lu Zhenghong asked again, "Did you return to Hudong this time?"

Su Xinghui nodded, "Yes, I returned to Shangjun. I haven't been back to see it for several years, so I wanted to go back and see it this time."

Lu Zhenghong said, "How is Shangjun now?"
