The Invincible Son-in-law

The glass factory, once a major taxpayer of Wucheng County, has made significant contributions to the economic development of Wucheng County.

Of course, now the equipment of the glass factory is outdated, and there are management issues that cannot keep up with the ever-changing industry.

Although a series of renovations have been carried out before, it's clearly not enough.

The main reason is that the glass factory is financially constrained, lacking the funds to make substantial investments.

Now, Wucheng County has entered a new phase of development, especially with the launch of the new town construction project, which the size and quality of the glass factory's products can hardly meet.

Lin Hao, adhering to the principle of expanding and strengthening local enterprises, plans to assist the glass factory.

In simple terms, even if the government entirely funds the upgrading of equipment, it's still using a portion of tax revenue to support the development of local enterprises.

Even so, he still has to report this matter to Li Jingyi and get her approval.

Of course, such a large project involves financial inputs, and he needs to look at the specific figures reported by the glass factory to determine how much funding the government can approve for them.

After receiving this news, Liang Caiwei, the general manager of Wucheng County Glass Factory, was overjoyed and hurriedly instructed to make all necessary preparations.

After Lu Xiaodan left, Lin Hao made a phone call to Director Wei of the National Development and Reform Commission.

"Is this Director Wei? I'm Lin Hao."

"County Magistrate Lin, what do you need?" Wei Lianggui replied with great excitement.

"It's not a big deal. I heard that the glass factory's renovation project plan has been submitted. What are the views of the National Development and Reform Commission on it?"

Lin Hao directly asked.

As someone Lin Hao promoted, he was considered one of his own, hence Lin Hao spoke so plainly.

If it were others, Lin Hao would surely be more roundabout.

Wei Lianggui, being no fool, and knowing that Lu Xiaodan's father works at the glass factory and Lu Xiaodan is Lin Hao's liaison, immediately responded, "County Magistrate Lin, we are very satisfied with the glass factory's upgrading project, but the financial aspect might need your decision."

"How much funding have they applied for?" Lin Hao asked right away.

"They applied for twenty million in funds. What do you think…"

"This upgrading plan isn't about the cost, but about what value it generates. How much tax revenue can it bring to our county in the future?"

Lin Hao's meaning was clear.

"County Magistrate Lin is right, the glass factory is a major taxpayer of our county. We should help them complete the upgrading to create more value. Our National Development and Reform Commission office has no objections, and we'll submit it immediately."

Wei Lianggui indeed knows how to adapt to circumstances.

"Alright, I hope to see this plan soon."

Lin Hao hung up after saying that.

Twenty million? What is Liang Caiwei thinking?

If it's an upgrade and renovation, then just go for it boldly!

What can this little amount do?

However, he doesn't have time to think much about it now, as he grabbed his briefcase and went to the county party secretary's office.

Today, Li Jingyi was also full of spirit, in a good mood, with a smile like she won a five million lottery on her face.

Honestly, as the county party secretary, the person in charge, the whole county always needs money everywhere.

Almost everyone who comes to her is asking for money, making her feel overwhelmed by being in charge.

Fortunately, there's Lin Hao, a guy who knows how to earn money. After this land auction, the government will definitely receive a lot of money, and for the next three to five years, it should not worry about money.

Lin Hao walked slowly into her office, immediately noticing the smiling beauty of the secretary.

"Secretary Li, what's making you so happy?"

"Lin Hao, you came just in time, come, sit and we'll talk." Li Jingyi quickly welcomed him.

Lin Hao didn't stand on ceremony, plopping down in a chair, observing the beauty secretary opposite him.

Today, she wore a white undershirt as a base, with a small blazer over it. Below, it's likely a pencil skirt or similar.

Her face was beaming with the joy of finding a golden ingot, making everyone feel happy along with her.

"Tell me quickly, how much can we earn this time? Is it ten billion?"

Li Jingyi asked with a smile.

"Ten billion? Secretary, are you overthinking? Land auction doesn't collect tax, does it? Land compensation for demolition costs money too, right?"

Lin Hao felt quite speechless.

"Uh… so, how much can we earn?"

Li Jingyi felt a basin of cold water poured over her, chilling straight to her heart.

"Although it's not ten billion, I estimate five or six billion is likely, depending on the specific data from the finance and natural resources bureaus."

Lin Hao comforted with a smile.

"Five or six billion is not bad, after all, there's still phase two and phase three."

Li Jingyi smiled again.

"Secretary, you're really a little money-hungry!"

Lin Hao couldn't help but laugh and cry.

"Come on, you're all talk, you don't realize the cost of being in charge..."

Li Jingyi reverted to her old ways again.

"Alright, let's stop there. I came today mainly to consult with you on how to give everyone a little reward."

Lin Hao brought the topic back.

"This reward… it's still necessary… what do you think?"

Li Jingyi kicked the ball back to him.

"This is a preliminary plan I've drawn up. Take a look, and then we'll discuss."

Lin Hao handed her a draft of the reward standards.

Actually, there was a reward once before. The basic standards remain unchanged, except that the rewards for leaders and staff in Fuhua Town and Zhenjiang Village are increased.

After all, they're the ones on the front lines. Without their household-by-household efforts, there wouldn't be such a smooth demolition, let alone talk of selling land.

Additionally, other township leaders and staff were also given some recognition.

Li Jingyi glanced through it briefly and said, "I think there's no problem, let's implement it according to this standard."

"I think we better discuss it in a meeting first?" Lin Hao asked.

"No worries, last time it was the same plan, this time just slightly adjusted. They should have no objections." Li Jingyi regarded it as a trivial matter.

However, Lin Hao didn't think so, insisting, "Let's hold a meeting to be safer, to avoid being accused of dictatorship on our part."

"Alright, I'll call them in for a meeting now." Li Jingyi is decisive.

Around nine o'clock, Wucheng County's dozen or so standing committee members arrived. It only took a few minutes for the decision to be passed.

After all, each of them was entitled to a substantial reward, and Lin Hao also arranged some small perks for them.

Thus, they had no objections, nor dared to have any.

However, with the standing committee of Wucheng County passing the resolution, it became a collective decision. Even if there's any issue in the future, it wouldn't be pinned on Lin Hao and Li Jingyi.

After all, such a high-profile reward issuance in Wucheng County, as soon as it's transmitted to neighboring districts and county leaders, plays poorly.

Even if the reward plan was authorized by the municipal government, many still felt uncomfortable.
