Chapter One Hundred: Knowing People and Using Them Well
Zhao Ming had a very bad temper and there were really not many people who could control him, but coincidentally Old He was one of them.
Looking at Zhao Fenz's angry face, He Lao smiled and let his granddaughter He Sha Sha pour him a cup of tea. Then he seriously advised him that the reason was simple: in terms of local influence, the combined strength of the He and Zhao families was not as strong as the Wen family. This matter could only be compromised, and the only thing to strive for was to find a way to increase Feng Sicheng's power under the deputy department level. Entering the Dahulu County Committee was certain, but it also needed some real power. The country had already shifted its focus to economic development, so what they were striving for was to let Feng Sicheng serve as a member of the Dahulu County Committee and executive vice county head.
He Lao's vision is naturally much broader than Zhao Mingyuan, and even he said so. Zhao Mingyuan also knew that even if they found Wen Chaoying, getting angry wouldn't solve the problem. He had no choice but to follow He Lao's suggestion and contact the Central Organization Department. The Central Organization Department agreed without hesitation. When Wen Chaoying found out, he didn't say much. After all, he had already been sent to a poor county and wasn't given any power, so how could he do his job? As a result, Feng Sicheng's appointment was settled: Member of the County Committee of Dahulu County, Yongyang City, Zhongzhou Province, People's Republic of China; Standing Committee member; Executive Vice County Mayor.
Finally, the dust has settled. When Zhao Mingyuan told Feng Sicheng the news, Feng Sicheng was not disappointed at all, but rather excited. After all, being able to enter the county's standing committee was already a good thing, and he hadn't expected to be appointed as the executive vice-county head, which is the second-in-command of the county government, with great power. He happily accepted this appointment.
Yes, Dahulu County may be poor, but isn't it easier to achieve results in a poor place? Feng Sicheng believed that relying on his understanding of various aspects of the world, he would surely make a splash in Dahulu County and create brilliant achievements. From now on, Feng Sicheng just waited for the organization's appointment letter, and then he would go to Dahulu County to take office.
Next, when he was looking for various information about Dahu County, good friends called one after another, and even came directly to Zhao's quadrangle courtyard to find him. Their purpose was the same: they all couldn't understand why Feng Sizi would choose to go to a county that is famous for being one of the poorest in the country. Kyoto is so good, although Zhongzhou Province is not far from Kyoto, it can be reached in a day when something happens, but that's still the countryside. A city person, and even a proud Kyoto person, actually wants to go to a poor county where birds don't even shit, everyone is puzzled.
Feng Sichu has his own way of doing things, he knows how to walk his own path, and the concerns of others are all expressed in a subtle way. As for the comfort given by Wen Chao's words, he just smiled and set it aside. That's how society is, everything depends on one's strength, if you're not strong enough, you'll naturally be bullied by others. Today, Wen Jia tolerated everything Feng Sichu did, firstly because his strength was indeed inferior to others, secondly, this result was exactly what he wanted.
Others, of course, did not understand Feng Si Zhe's thoughts. Miao Zi Huan, Duan Yun Peng, and Qin Tian all came to find Feng Si Zhe with some anger, and indicated that if he had any opinions, they would think of ways to help him. To their kindness, Feng Si Zhe expressed his gratitude one by one, and at the same time also stated that he accepted the organization's decision. Even the protagonist Feng Si Zhe did not have any objections, so everyone could only sigh, pat his shoulder, and say that if there was a need for them in the future, just speak up and they would do their best to help him.
He Shasha also arrived at the Zhao family's quadrangle courtyard, originally intending to comfort Feng Sicheng a bit. After all, being suppressed by the Wen family and arranged to be one of the poorest counties in the country was not a pleasant thing. However, regarding this matter, the He family was indeed powerless.
Feng Si Zhe didn't look as downcast as He Sa Sha had imagined, and on the surface, there was no change at all. Instead, he handed her a sheet of music, which turned out to be another classic song in later years, called "Tao Sheng Yi Jiou". It was originally supposed to be created in 93, but once again Feng Si Zhe had borrowed it and brought it into the world ahead of time. He gave this piece to He Sa Sha as a parting gift, believing that she would definitely make use of it, at least for some purpose or other, which he didn't bother to think about or care about anymore.
After dealing with his personal matters, he arranged for Duan Yunpeng and others to call the Dalu County Government or contact him if they had anything to do. This was also unavoidable, as in today's underdeveloped communication industry, it is estimated that even if you take a beeper to a place like Dalu County, you may not have a signal everywhere. Therefore, Feng Sizhe did not accept Duan Yunpeng's request to buy him a beeper. After doing all this, Feng Sizhe waited at home for the organization to arrange his appointment as the head of Dalu County.
Feng Sicheng is about to leave, and Grandfather Zhao Mingyuan is busy every day. The 4th session of the 7th National People's Congress is about to be held at the end of March, and as a Central Committee member, Zhao Mingyuan has many things to attend to. However, he still made time to visit Jing Shan Hou Jie and met with the old premier.
This time, Zhao Mingyuan did not take Feng Sizhe with him, but went alone. Firstly, to visit the old chief and get closer to each other's relationship. Secondly, he also wanted to see if the old chief had any instructions regarding his grandson Feng Sizhe going to Dahu County.
The old leader wouldn't have time to care about a deputy county head's problem, but since Zhao Mingyuan had come, he couldn't let him return empty-handed. He immediately wrote four big characters "Know people and assign them wisely" in his study and asked Zhao Mingyuan to deliver the calligraphy to Feng Sizhe, trusting that the other party would understand the meaning.
When Zhao Mingyuan handed over the four characters "知人善任" written by the old leader to Feng Sicheng, he was very excited and hurriedly treasured them as the most precious thing. He knew that there were many implications in these four words, and nepotism was a common problem among most cadres. With the old leader's advice, Feng Sicheng decided that from then on, there would be no nepotism under his leadership, and he would only appoint people based on their merits. This is also why when Feng Sicheng stood at the highest peak in the future, none of those he considered to be his confidants ever betrayed him. When a person treats others with sincerity and kindness, just like they would want to be treated themselves, the distance between people becomes very small.
After everything was ready, the Organization Department of the Central Committee called Feng Sicheng and asked him to come to the Organization Department to receive relevant appointment documents. He had to arrive at the Organization Department of Zhongzhou Province before March 20th, and specific matters would be arranged by Zhongzhou Province. For this reason, Feng Sicheng was about to embark on a new journey. Under the reluctant and sincere hopes of his uncle and aunt, under the encouraging eyes of his elder brother-in-law, younger brother-in-law, and younger sister-in-law, under He Sa's eyes filled with resentment, Feng Sicheng set foot on the train to Zhongzhou Province accompanied by security guard Chen Hu, starting a new step and journey for his grassroots training and advancement.
