Let's talk about Zhong Yi later.

I stayed on the construction site of Zhaobaoshan Fortress for a long time, and did not leave to return to the city until the afternoon.

When Zhong Yi returned to the city, he found that the streets of the old third district had become empty again, and all the refugees who had been sleeping on the streets or living in tents on the streets were gone.

Of course, these refugees did not leave Yinjiang, but moved to the Diwo area of Yinxi.

Now, following the three old districts of Haishu, Jiangbei and Jiangdong, Yinjiang City has added Yinjiang New District and Diwo District, of course, Diwo District is not the official name, but the people have called it.

Less than five minutes after returning to the office and sitting down, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Then, the figure of Chen Jiming, the director of the Finance Bureau, hurriedly walked in, and as soon as he came in, he complained to Zhong Yi.

"Mayor, I can't be the director of the finance bureau anymore!" Chen Jiming exclaimed with a bitter face, "I really can't do it!" ”

"What's going on here? It's good that you're not the finance director? Zhong Yi was surprised, "Why can't you be it?" ”

"The overhead is too big, the overhead is too big!" Chen Jiming said painfully, "My mayor, do you know how much our city's financial expenditure was last month? ”

Zhong Yi slapped his head and said embarrassedly: "I really didn't pay attention to this." ”

"I knew I couldn't remember." Chen Jiming shook his head and said, "Let me tell you, last month, our city's financial expenditure totaled 52 million yuan, of which the general affairs expenditure was about 22 million yuan, the construction of Zhaobaoshan and Jinji Mountain fortresses was more than 25 million yuan, and the project cost of Zhangjia Construction Company was more than 5 million yuan. ”

Zhong Yi was dumbfounded after hearing this, originally he thought that after copying the Chen family, the Qiu family and more than a dozen grain merchants, how could the city's finances be relaxed for a few months, but he never thought that it would be at the bottom in just one month!

Chen Jiming also said: "Thanks to the gold, silver and jewelry worth more than 50 million yuan sent by Lao Cao yesterday, otherwise our city's finances would have to open the skylight from this month!" ”

Zhong Yi frowned and said, "How can there be so many? ”

"Isn't that a big expense?" Chen Jiming calculated one by one, "The project payment of the Zhangjia Construction Company has been in arrears of tens of millions, and if it is in arrears, your father-in-law is afraid that it will be bankrupt and liquidated!" The five million is only a small part of the arrears of the project, and most of it has not been paid. ”

Zhong Yi bowed his head slightly, he knew this situation.

Originally, it was said that the project of Yinjiang New District, the old Zhangjia needs to advance funds, but even if the funds are advanced, the municipal government cannot not pay any money, and now the three links and one level project in Yinjiang New District have been fully rolled out, and Zhangjia Construction Company has to invest tens of millions in the entire project every day, and the municipal finance will not give money to really be unbearable.

At that moment, Zhong Yi said again: "Don't talk about the fortress, why is there so much money for housekeeping?" ”

Zhong Yi clearly remembers that when he first arrived in Yinjiang, his monthly housekeeping expenses were only more than 500,000 yuan!

How is it that in less than half a year, the monthly general expenses have surged to more than 22 million yuan?

"Is there a lot of general expenses? Not much at all, actually! Chen Jiming clapped his hands and said, "Mayor, you don't want to think about it, when you first came to Yinjiang, how many people were in the police station?" Not more than 500 people! But now? The current Yinjiang Police Corps has surged to more than 5,000 people, a tenfold increase! ”

Zhong Yi frowned and said, "Even if it is increased tenfold, forty yuan per person per month, and five thousand people are only 200,000?" ”

"My mayor, it's just a paycheck." Chen Jiming smiled bitterly and said, "After recruiting so many policemen, you have to buy them more clothes, right?" Two winter clothes per person are always required, right? There are so many police officers, you can't let them stay on the street, you have to build a house for them to guard, how much does it cost to build a house? ”

"With such a drum, more than two million people will go out."

Zhong Yi said: "That's only two million, what about twenty million?" ”

"I was about to tell you." Chen Jiming clapped his hands and said, "Mayor, can the operation of this health school be suspended?" The expenses are just too much! With our current financial income, we really can't stand it! ”

When Zhong Yi heard this, he slapped his head hard, how could he forget this stubble.

That's right, it's never easy to start a school, and it's even harder to start a health school.

What's more, the health school that Zhong Yi wants to run is nominally a health school, but in fact, it is completely built according to the specifications of a military medical university! That's why it's such a big investment!

Not to mention anything else, the investment in medical equipment alone is an astronomical amount!

There are also the salaries of lecturers and professors, the salaries of those young lecturers are fine, one hundred and two hundred can be dealt with, but the salaries of those medical professors at home and abroad, especially the two students sent by Professor Flory and Professor Dunn, the salary expenditure is really not low, 500 pounds per person per month!

Five hundred pounds, that's a whole six thousand fiat currency!

At that moment, Zhong Yi said: "Lao Chen, I know, but the preparatory work of the health school must not be stopped, not only can it not be stopped, but it must also speed up the progress, and it is best to complete the enrollment work next month!" ”

"Huh?" Chen Jiming said bitterly, "Do you want to speed up?" Enrollment will be completed next month? This and this, the students of this health school are covered with room and board, and this is a large amount of expenditure, mayor, I really can't do this job. ”

"Lao Chen, don't worry, you don't have to worry about money." Zhong Yi said, "I will raise money as soon as possible." ”

Chen Jiming has no doubts about Zhong Yi's ability to raise money, since he came to Yinjiang, in just a few months, how much movement has happened, and how much money has he made? Chen Jinmu and those gangsters earned a sum of money, the Chen family and those grain merchants made another amount of income, and they also made a lot of money from reselling grain.

These three sums add up, how can it be 100 million!

However, Mayor Zhong is really going to spend money!

made more than 100 million, and in less than three months, he spent all his money, and he still owed a lot of debt!

At that moment, Chen Jiming said: "Mayor, then you have to promise me that you will give me at least 50 million before the 15th of next month!" ”

"Fifty million, right?" Zhong Yi patted his chest and said, "Lao Chen, don't worry, I will send 50 million to your office before March 15th!" ”

Chen Jiming smacked and said, "Mayor, this is what you said. ”

"I said it!" Chen Yi muttered, "A manly man, never break his word!" ”

"That's good, Mayor, I'll go back to work." Chen Jiming's intention was achieved, and he left in a hurry.

Because a few foreign businessmen had just come from Hong Kong and wanted to eat a batch of antique calligraphy and paintings, Chen Jiming had to go back quickly to see if he could sell a batch of antique calligraphy and paintings in the library.
