No one at the meeting had expected Su Zhenze to be so generous. The entire army had been expanded from more than 2,000 to more than 20,000. It was an army that had been expanded ten times. For a moment, both the military and the government were shocked by Su Zhenze's military expansion plan. Everyone had different thoughts and ideas.
At this moment, the higher-ups of the military were all smiling, especially the pro-war faction led by Su Ruixi. They were ecstatic. If not for the fact that Su Zhenze was here, they would have long shouted that with these 20,000 soldiers, they could take down the entire Jiangxi and let Su Zhenze experience the feeling of being the Jiangxi Military Governor!
On the other hand, the officers of the government agencies were thinking about whether the government's financial revenue could meet the salary of Su Zhenze's army of more than 20,000 people and how much money would be needed for logistics work.
Even though the three counties had a lot of business, light industry, and tax revenue, the government needed money for many things. The arsenal was like a bottomless pit that required money. The heavy industry base was one of the key projects of the coalition government, and there were also a few large-scale mining areas, the government's livelihood improvement plan, and so on. A lot of projects needed money, and the government did not have much liquid capital!
"Leader, look at this expansion…"
Su Zhenze looked at his group of government officials, who were all frowning. It was obvious that they had put a lot of thought into the operation of the government! He couldn't help but feel a little gratified. This was the high-ranking government official he needed! His painstaking efforts to nurture them were not in vain!
"Haha, I know what you want to say!”
"But don't worry, I know very well that the government's current finances can't afford so many military expenses!”
Seeing the confusion in everyone's eyes, Su Zhenze continued.
"Don't worry, because Zhenhua Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce that I own. I will invest all my dividends and profits in the construction of this army, but I have to tighten my belt! Haha!"
Everyone saw that Su Zhenze had taken out all his funds from the Zhen Hua Chamber of Commerce to support the military construction. This time, the government only had to bear 20% of the military expenditure, and the financial pressure was greatly reduced!
However, everyone admired Su Zhenze a little. In order to support the government's work, he did not touch a single cent of the gold and silver treasures in the various commanders-in-chief's residences when they attacked the county. All of them supported the government's work to improve the people's livelihood!
For example, in order to stimulate the development of the business in Guangfeng and increase the speed of the circulation of goods, the government had built many roads for this purpose. The money used was taken out by Su Zhenze from the gold and silver treasures of Marshal Ma's residence and a group of corrupt officials. Su Zhenze did not even blink and did not keep a single cent of the one million yuan!
Even the house he lived in could be described as bare. The county government had allocated a slightly larger ordinary house. Other than some ordinary decorations, there was nothing else in the house. Sometimes, these people who were familiar with Su Zhenze felt that he was simply not like a top leader. He was too harsh on himself. He did not raise a concubine, was not greedy for money, was not lecherous, liked power but was not greedy for power! However, the coalition government was able to come to this day thanks to Su Zhenze's strict self-discipline, which also formed a good trend for others!
As for why Su Zhenze did this, the reason was very simple. He did not want to fail. He did not want his path to China's revival to be lost just like that. He was so strict with himself because he constantly reminded himself not to make mistakes. If he took a wrong step now, he would be doomed. If he succeeded, he would lead China to win the world! He still knew how to settle such a score!
Seeing that no one had any objections, he continued.
"The second thing I want to say is to the government. Director Chen and everyone should have seen it. Combined with the huge role that farmers can play in our work, with 90% of the people in China being farmers, we have decided to mobilize farmers to play a key role in our future career!”
"Therefore, I have decided to set up a new department in the government to be responsible for the propaganda and organization of the farmers and the people. It will be called the Public Relations Bureau, and Li Minyou will be the director!”
"We fully agree with the leader's decision!”
The group of government officials had long recognized the power of the masses and naturally would not oppose Su Zhenze's proposal. However, there was one person, Lee Minyou, who was extremely grateful to Su Zhenze. He had the urge to die if he met a confidant!
Back then, when he was reporting on his work, he had only mentioned the establishment of an organization that specialized in mobilizing the people and publicizing the coalition government. He did not expect that such an organization would really be established one day, and he had also become the first director of the Public Relations Bureau. At this moment, he swore in his heart that he would definitely do his job well and repay Su Zhenze's kindness!
However, Su Zhenze did not expect the change in Li Minyou's heart. Even if he did, he would probably just laugh it off and pat him on the shoulder to tell him to do his job well! Regarding the appointment of officials, Su Zhenze insisted on vigorously promoting those who dared to do good for the people, were willing to do good for the people, and were able to do practical things! And Li Youmin was naturally within this rule in Su Zhenze's assessment!
At the end of the meeting, Su Zhenze made a concluding statement.
"Everyone, I believe that with everyone's joint efforts, the future of the coalition government will definitely be better. I, Su Zhenze, hope that everyone can work hard for the rise of China!”
"Work hard for the rise of China!"
The people in the meeting couldn't help but feel their eyes light up. Su Zhenze was always able to give them huge goals to motivate themselves, but knowing this, everyone was attracted by his grand goal! That's right, China had been silent for too long, so long that the world had forgotten about this huge dragon!
While everyone felt that they had returned with a full load, only Su Zhenze walked into his office and covered his heart. He could still feel the pain in his heart. After this expansion, he would lose a few tens of thousands of reward points! He would only have a few hundred points left!
That's right, after Su Zhenze took down Yushan and Xing County, he had taken various measures to earn a huge amount of Reputation Points for him. After exchanging them for reward points, he had earned tens of thousands of reward points! This was the most reward points he had in one go!
But then, the heavy industry had to be developed, and the light industry had to be invested. He had used cards to train a lot of technical personnel, especially the arsenal and heavy industry base, which was a bottomless pit!
After he was barely able to make these factories operate normally, Su Zhenze began to prepare for the expansion of the army. The original independent regiment was no longer suitable for the current situation in Gan Dong Bei. He originally wanted to slowly expand the army into a brigade, but the melee between Jiujiang, Shang Rao, and Yang Zhanshan stimulated Su Zhenze.
He only had 2,000 soldiers. Under the pressure of these three forces that easily had more than 10,000 soldiers, these three forces did not have the time to care about him now. However, when they came back to their senses, he would eventually become a victim of the game between the three forces without a strong army! Since that was the case, Su Zhenze felt that he could only expand the army. He had the training enhancement card. In two to three months, he was confident that he would have another Iron Lion!
