Rebirth: I am in Jin-Cha-Ji

All cadres must be transferred to the central government.

While the Chairman convened the Secretariat meeting, the cadres who had come to Beijing to attend the National Finance and Economics Conference gradually returned to their local areas. Meanwhile, Wei Hongjun began his work on the National Compilation Committee.

New China had just been established for more than half a year, so the functions of many departments were not clear.

The responsibilities of many departments overlap or are even unclear.

National financial affairs should be handled by the Finance and Economics Committee, with the Ministry of Finance taking the lead. However, Mao Zemin was the Deputy Director of the Finance and Economics Committee and the official in charge of New China's financial order. Currently, monetary policy is a top priority in financial affairs. Therefore, Mao Zemin held considerable influence on financial matters.

This has led to many overlapping functions between the Ministry of Finance and the People's Bank of China.

There's also the National Organization Committee, whose primary responsibility was to compile statistics and determine the budgets of various ministries. However, its actual work extends beyond this. The Organization Committee also oversees the expenditures of various departments, the grading of Party members and cadres, and their subsequent salaries.

Now the chairman has asked the compilation committee to be responsible for setting standards for reception expenses.

This is not that simple either.

Different cadres, depending on their rank, receive different reception standards. Wei Hongjun would like to see all receive the same amount of money, but this is unrealistic. For example, the security arrangements for cadres of different ranks are not uniform.

And Wei Hongjun's ambition is not limited to this.

Since the power between departments is somewhat vague, Wei Hongjun must make good use of this opportunity. It is not that Wei Hongjun wants to use this opportunity to grab power, but that he can do a lot of things by using this vague opportunity. So Wei Hongjun convened

An internal meeting of the National Compilation Committee was held, with deputy directors Zhang Dingcheng and An Ziwen, and secretary-general Yang Xiufeng attending the meeting.

"Although the standards for receiving cadres may seem like trivial matters, they are the most common problems and the most likely to cause problems. Our compilation committee must pay attention to these trivial matters. Only when there are clear standards for these trivial matters can we

Only by being accurate can we have a basis for doing things.

Wei Hongjun has no way to deal with the major problems now.

Just like this financial meeting.

When Wei Hongjun came forward to question, he just wanted to suppress the voices of Shanghai's big capitalists. Wei Hongjun did not think of targeting Bo Shuchun. Because Bo Shuchun's ability is really good. Since he took over the Ministry of Finance, he has been busy with all kinds of things.

He managed the financial work in an orderly manner.

There are still many difficulties in the future financial work, and we need capable cadres like Bo Shuchun.

But who could have imagined that the meeting would turn out like that.

But even the Chairman couldn't solve this kind of problem, let alone Wei Hongjun. So what Wei Hongjun had to do was to establish rules and standards starting from small matters within a small scope.

Anyway, no one can say for sure what the compilation committee is responsible for now.

Then you can take care of everything.

"And I think we should use this opportunity now to set a standard for many things.

An Ziwen said, "There are many seemingly small, often overlooked issues that are crucial to the normal functioning of the government. Besides the receptions provided by Party and government departments, businesses and schools also have many areas that require regulation."

An Ziwen has rich work experience.

He worked in student movements, labor movements, and government agencies, and later built bases in Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan, doing an excellent job.

Both the party and government have made great achievements.

So I'm very familiar with these things.

Zhang Dingcheng next to him also said: "In addition to these, there are also issues related to eating and seeing a doctor. This matter cannot be underestimated. It is related to the daily life of party members and cadres. At present, what should the staff of government agencies eat?

What are the standards for settlement? Also, what are the reception standards for our meetings? What are the standards for drinking water and tea? Also, currently, our state-owned enterprises provide medical treatment to workers through their own internal hospitals. Now the central government has decided that all departments should promote

If economic accounting is carried out, then restaurants in government agencies and hospitals in state-owned enterprises should also conduct economic accounting. There should be clear standards for these.

Wei Hongjun nodded.

There are really many things that need to be standardized.

Zhang Dingcheng, An Ziwen, and Yang Xiufeng are not the type of people who engage in theoretical research.

On the contrary, they have been doing front-line work all year round.

Rich work experience.

So after a few people discussed it, many things came up that needed to be standardized.

Wei Hongjun sighed as he looked at the thick notebook.

The CCP had been engaged in armed struggle for years, and the People's Republic of China had only been established a short time ago, so many aspects of the CCP had no procedures at all. They handled things haphazardly. However, Wei Hongjun, observing this, was filled with fighting spirit.

Various standards must be formulated as soon as possible.

With these standards, work efficiency can be greatly improved.

"We can't formulate this behind closed doors. My idea is to solicit opinions widely. We'll pass our ideas down to the provincial and municipal compilation committees and have them pool their thoughts. Then we'll hold another meeting and invite officials from the local compilation committees to join us. Finally, we'll formulate these standards. What do you all think?"

"Yes."

After making the decision, Wei Hongjun said, "Comrade An Ziwen is currently in charge of cadre grading. I think this matter should be handed over to Comrade Zhang Dingcheng. We must communicate closely with the provincial and municipal staffing committees."

Chapter 794: Currency Goes to the Countryside

After the National Finance and Economics Conference, the central government began to unify the national finances.

Unification - The national finance is mainly unified in three aspects.

First: unify fiscal revenue. This includes public grain revenue, tax revenue, and the profits of other public enterprises. This unification does not mean that all fiscal revenue should be sent to the Ministry of Finance, but rather that these revenues should be managed in a unified manner. In the past, the fiscal revenue of each local region was

Some of it is kept for my own use.

However, after a financial and economic meeting, it was stipulated that local governments were not allowed to use fiscal revenue at will.

All expenditures need to be uniformly deployed by the Ministry of Finance.

The advantage of this approach is that the Ministry of Finance can clearly understand the country's fiscal revenue and overall expenditure. Only with a clear understanding of revenue and expenditure can a more accurate fiscal plan be formulated.

Second: Unify the country’s material management.

Important materials in the country should be centrally managed, and material warehouses should be set up in various places to store these materials. When needed, the Finance and Economics Committee will centrally allocate them, reducing all intermediate links. This will improve the efficiency of material utilization, and local areas will not be unable to obtain materials due to temporary shortages.

Just buy it yourself or import it from abroad.

In fact, there are often sufficient supplies in the country, but due to problems in allocation, some central bureaus and local regions are short of supplies and have to spend their own money to purchase them from other places.

The result is a rapid increase in fiscal spending.

Following this unification, all vital supplies nationwide were under the control of the Finance and Economics Committee. Supplies could be quickly allocated wherever needed, significantly reducing fiscal expenditures. Furthermore, the Finance and Economics Committee's control over these vital supplies could stabilize prices in major cities.

Third: Unify the management of cash and establish a national treasury.

All cash belonging to the state but dispersed across various enterprises, government agencies, military units, and cooperatives is centrally managed and allocated by the National Bank. All units use banks, not cash, for capital flows.

This is to tighten monetary policy and control the flow of funds.

Precisely because this involved local central military, regional governments, and major enterprises, it took more than half a year after the founding of the People's Republic of China for the central government to complete the unification of its finances. Now, with these three steps in place, the Finance and Economics Committee has begun the process of truly unifying its finances.

Chen Yun was in charge of the deployment, Bo Shuchun was responsible for the entire plan, and Mao Zemin was responsible for the allocation of materials and currency.

Then comes the issuance of government bonds.

By making up for the fiscal deficit and withdrawing the large amount of RMB currently in the market, prices can be stabilized. The effect is very obvious. Starting from the day after the Finance and Economics Committee announced the national debt plan, prices across the country began to fall significantly.

In fact, prices also depend on trends.

Many merchants who were hoarding supplies and wanted to hoard goods immediately understood the Finance Committee's intentions after seeing the Finance Committee's national debt plan. The Finance Committee was determined to suppress prices. This was the government's determination. After understanding the government's intentions, these merchants were worried about their own hands.

The supplies in hand were left in their hands, so they started selling off the stockpiled supplies.

The result is a drop in prices.

Then comes following the trend.

This led to a surge in the availability of a wide variety of goods on the market. Within ten days of the official announcement of the final national debt plan, prices in major cities across the country had already fallen by around 40%.

"Director Chen, the effect is immediate and effective."

The Finance and Economics Committee is very happy.

Thunderous cheers.

After all, it's only been a few days, and prices across the country have dropped so much, which shows that the Finance and Economics Committee's work is successful.

Wei Hongjun was also very happy.

In just over half a year since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the prices that had been rising during the Republic of China period have been brought down. This time, many speculators who have accumulated a lot of money will definitely go bankrupt. And only when prices are stable can the subsequent fiscal plans be carried out.

Industrial construction behind the rows.

Prices are the basis of all construction.

"Yes, the effect is better than I imagined.

Chen Yun nodded.

While Chen Yun was happy, he also understood what happened at the financial meeting and even felt a little scared.

Shanghai's capitalists, indeed, possess a keener economic sense than many CCP leaders. When the Finance and Economics Committee formulated the national debt plan, while its goal was to suppress prices, it didn't anticipate such a positive effect.

But it was clear that Shanghai's capitalists had long sensed the crisis. They knew that if the government launched a national debt plan, prices would fall rapidly. Therefore, they used various means to prevent the implementation of the national debt plan.

I have to admire these people for this.

“Prices

Although prices have fallen, they are still much higher than normal prices. The current prices need to be reduced by more than half to be considered normal prices. In addition, the deterrent effect of the national debt plan has been released a lot, and there is limited room for prices to fall in the future. It can be said that this is just the first step.

For prices, the government bond plan is only a temporary solution, not a fundamental solution.

Bo Shuchun - -looks tired.

First, I was criticized for over twenty days at a financial conference, and later at a Politburo meeting. Since then, I've been in charge of fiscal unification and the national debt plan, with almost no time to rest.

Although he was very tired, his enthusiasm for work remained undiminished.

After the national debt plan was introduced, he began to think about the next step.

"Comrade Bo Shuchun, please tell me."

Chen Yun is actually very satisfied with the current cadre structure of the Finance and Economics Committee.

The current deputy directors of the Finance and Economics Committee are not the kind of cadres who like to stir up trouble or seek attention. Li Fuchun has a lot of experience and is a steady person. He will not use his seniority to show off his power. Bo Shuchun is educated, capable, and has seniority. He is also a little proud and never admits defeat. But this kind of pride is not good.

Arrogance doesn't offend people. Wei Hongjun was young and high-ranking, but he didn't act arrogantly. Mao Zemin, because of his special status, was more low-key than anyone else.

Although there are disagreements sometimes, they are all work-related disagreements.

Overall, the work of the Finance and Economics Committee has been going smoothly. Chen Yun is now worried that once the leaders of the local central bureau and the local regions come to Beijing, the current harmony may not be as good as it is now.
