In addition to the problems to be faced at present, Julio also found some other problems. Compared with the closer cooperation between the officials of southern cities and capitalists, the capitalists in the West seem to be a little... Indifferent to the officials!
Yes, it''s cold. In yesterday''s conversation, Julio threw out these problems raised by Turin as a topic more than once and asked the capitalists present how to solve them. If it is in developed cities in the south, many capitalists will actively stand up and express their willingness to bear these problems and give solutions as soon as possible. The cooperation between the city hall and the capitalists is almost in a semi open state, and the capitalists are also willing to help the city hall solve these problems.
From the perspective of the city hall, many problems can be solved without using a penny of public funds, especially medical problems and basic security of citizens'' life. These are the two most profitable areas, but they are also the two areas with the largest investment. Medical security alone may require millions or even tens of millions of funds, and there will be continuous follow-up investment. It is said that medical groups recognize money rather than people, but ignore investment, cost and maintenance expenses.
It takes about three years, or even longer, for a brand-new hospital to be put into use and return to profit.
From the perspective of businessmen, their upcoming project investment is endorsed by the city hall. In addition to ensuring the safety of the project, the imperial central bank is also willing to grant loans to such projects. Compared with the somewhat rigid merchants in the north and middle of the Empire, businessmen in the South preferred capital means to invest. Generally speaking, businessmen in the north will take out real gold and silver to do things. In fact, there are many reasons why they do so.
For those businessmen with noble background, there is money at home anyway. There is no need to borrow money to do business. Their self-esteem and pride do not allow them to speak the word "borrow" to others, which will hurt their self-esteem. The same is true of those officials. Their rigorous and careful attitude will never accept any risky investment. Even if a project cannot be completed, they will never let the project start at risk.
However, the environment in the south is different. Businessmen are more inclined to the game means of capital. The example of doing things well without spending money not only inspires all businessmen''s dream of becoming rich, but also provides a very perfect template for these businessmen. With the endorsement of the government, businessmen can borrow a large amount of funds from the imperial central bank or the southern commercial bank with an intention contract signed by the city hall, use these funds to develop projects, and finally repay the loan after making profits. This is the favorite way for Southern businessmen.
Using the least capital to do the biggest project is the means of the capitalists in the south, which is why Henry told Doolin that the businessmen in the south are liars. Because these southerners always think about how to do things without or with less money, it will inevitably make people like Henry who lack social care feel cheated.
Julio was puzzled by the collective indifference of the Western businessmen. As long as anyone proposed any way that seemed to work, he was willing to nod and let them do it. But the question is, no one shows positive desire, are they not interested in these things, or are they kept silent? Julio felt that the biggest possibility was the latter. He was an outsider. He had just arrived here for less than a week. No one knew where he could go, and naturally he would not bet on himself blindly. He also maintained the mentality of running cities in the south, but ignored that the South and the West have very different economic ecology.
It takes a long process. Only after fully understanding the economic ecology of the west can Julio understand how wrong he is now. Of course, before doing these things, he must deal with another thing first.
Opening the shutters and looking at the cowboys and miners carrying shotguns outside the city hall, Julio felt a faint sadness and pain in his eggs. The desolation of the West and the great number of predators in the wild make almost every family here have shotguns, which is also specially approved by the state government. Villages and towns outside small cities such as tener are also allowed to form militias and have shotguns in order to protect people''s lives and... Property.
Horse bandits and robbers are also predators, so it''s not surprising that a family in the West has a shotgun. But when the group marched outside the city hall with guns on their backs, Julio couldn''t calm down. He had never seen such a grumpy citizen. Don''t people say the folk customs in the West are simple? Why does the simplicity he sees seem different from his understanding of simplicity?
These people began to March because of mennong''s death and the arrest of the Kadima party. Driven by some people''s ulterior motives, the three guarantees policy has become the "end" in people''s mouth. No one will continue to be responsible for them, and no one can ensure that the three guarantees policy they have purchased can continue to be implemented. This has seriously hurt the feelings of the people in the West and damaged their trust in the government and the implementation of policies. Therefore, someone must take responsibility for this matter.
This responsibility did not belong to Julio. Mennon''s death was an "accident". The killing and arrest of members of the Kadima party organization had nothing to do with Julio. It was a collective killing operation in the three western states. It can be said that nothing had anything to do with Julio from beginning to end, but he became the first person to face it directly. Some people said privately that mennon was ruined because he blocked Julio''s way. Who got the most benefits after mennon''s death?
There''s no doubt that it''s Julio. Don''t you see that Julio has become the mayor of van Lille? Under his ass is the chair mennon used to sit in. Don''t trouble him. Who do you trouble?
Driven by such rumors, some angry Westerners who felt that they had been deceived and maliciously treated came outside the city hall with shotguns on their backs. They need a statement and an arrangement. It''s impossible to lose a lot of rights and interests inexplicably, not even a statement. As the biggest beneficiary, Julio always has to say something?
These people are really stupid!
In fact, there are some fools and fools, but there are still many smart people. It is impossible for ordinary people to carry the adverse effects and consequences caused by the uproar. Throughout the whole history, no one who has been blamed for political events is an ordinary civilian. Even if there is, under the influence of some special forces, they have also become special people with "political influence". But more often, a decent politician carries the pot.
Julio didn''t believe the westerner would be so rude at first until he got an arrow in his knee.
"We should find a solution to this matter as soon as possible. I don''t want these impulsive bastards to continue to appear outside the city hall..." Julio loosened his finger and sat or stood in his office. These five people are his private team, or decision-making group. This kind of small group is very common in the south. Both businessmen and government officials are used to hiring some smart people to form a problem analysis team to help them improve their work efficiency. It is said that margus also has a private similar small group called think tank.
The young man standing on the wall with a wine glass spoke first. He was a social elite who graduated from the economic discipline of Southern Business University. He was employed by Julio to serve in his decision-making group and provide some necessary economic help, "Boss, I looked through some files left by Mr. mennon. In this file, I found that nearly 2.2 million people in the whole western region purchased 3.7 million various types of insurance, and paid fees ranging from 48 to 77 months for these insurance, with a total amount of more than 80 million yuan!"
"About 60 million yuan has been invested in the construction of 13 cities, the largest of which has been spent on land replacement and the construction of commercial centers. In addition, more than 23.5 million yuan has been diverted for other purposes, of which more than 9 million yuan is in the imperial central bank account of the Kadima party. At present, this account has been frozen, and the remaining more than 10 million yuan have no specific documents to prove the flow of these funds , but they all disappeared. "
"In other words, even if those people lower their demands, as long as they refund the money they pay, they can quell the problem. You, the city hall, including the state government, are not able to spend about 100 million at one time to repay all western citizens who have participated in the three guarantees policy. Therefore, if you want to say that the three guarantees policy is suspended, you can''t get the money."
When hooriorton, he felt a pain in his brain. The eggs didn''t hurt, but he had a headache.
A hundred million dollars?
Where did he get a hundred million dollars? Even if he sold him, he could sell millions or tens of millions of dollars. The muscles in the corners of his eyes pulled uncontrollably and looked at several other people, "Gentlemen, how should we face the next disaster? We certainly don''t have money. Even if the cabinet agrees, it''s impossible to allocate 100 million to calm the anger of citizens. I''m afraid we can take less than 20 million."
At this time, a young man in his thirties dressed in formal clothes and looking like a social elite smiled, "Mr. Julio, in fact, we might as well think in another way. Mennong can maintain the three guarantees policy, so why can''t we? According to the data just now, the three guarantees policy can be maintained on a scale of about 10 million, and we can get more profits from it to develop the city every year!"
Julio nodded noncommittally, "This is indeed a way, but it is also the most inappropriate way. The basis of the three guarantees policy is based on the fact that there is no basis for insurance fraud. We know that Mr. mennon was cheated of more than 2 million insurance money before he was assassinated. We are not familiar with the Three Guarantees policy, and we do not know enough about the personal information of each citizen participating in the three guarantees policy, and there are many problems in it Dealing with capitalists is full of all kinds of risks. "
"We may need to set up a huge organization to complete the handover of these things. The reason why Mr. mennon can change the three guarantees policy is because he himself is the leader of the Kadima party. The Kadima party is all over the west, and there are Kadima party people in every city. So they have a large enough organization to do these things, but we don''t."
"If we want to achieve the level of Mr. mennon, the first thing to solve is the people who do the specific work, and then we have to argue with the capitalists and find a way to roll the money!"
"Gentlemen, this is not an easy task, because we have a ''deficit'' of about 75 million. If we can''t find the money and get the frozen funds of the Kadima party, we are likely to become victims!"
In fact, Julio was most worried about someone pushing these people to participate in the trouble. If his men didn''t tell him that mennon had seized nearly 100 million funds from the west, he didn''t know that there was such a big pit, a pit enough to be called an abyss.
Even if only one million people asked for a refund, it was enough to make Julio helpless. He didn''t have so much money to operate these things. He didn''t have the foundation of mennong, and there were not so many people willing to work for him.
Julio''s legal adviser thought about it and said, "Now, the only way is to challenge the three guarantees policy to the state parliament and cabinet, and ask the state government and cabinet to form an investigation team to investigate in depth whether any members of the State Council are involved in job-related crimes in the process of the three guarantees policy bill passed by the state parliament. My personal opinion is that someone will pass the bill only after receiving benefits. As long as I find the evidence, I will We can apply for and consider the repeal of this bill, and then put all the blame on Mr. mennon and the Kadima party. "
"What about those citizens who have suffered losses?" Julio was very excited. He knew what the lawyer meant. Anyway, he just refused to admit it and asked the Western military region to suppress the riots. The consequence of doing so was that he did not need to bear any responsibility for the three guarantees policy. Although there might be some stains on his resume, it was less important than the former.
The legal adviser smiled, "of course, it is to provide them with legal aid and let them sue Kadima party and Mr. mennon. As for whether they can recover the money and how much they can recover, that is another thing." in order to make Julio and other small partners more deeply understand the feasibility of his doing so, he also gave an example, "The century big scam happened a few years ago. A group of people used some actually very common means to roll more than 70 million funds from Cherith street to escape the Empire. So far, they have not solved the case, let alone the principal offender. They haven''t even recovered much money."
"This is actually the same as what we need to face. As long as we break the three guarantees policy is a fraud, then this matter has nothing to do with us!"
