In the next few days, Zhuang Jihua didn't plan to meet anyone... He wanted to reunite with his family for a few days, but he had too many subordinates in Chongqing. From Yang Yongtai to Lu Zuofu, from the municipal government to various districts and counties, people came to visit his home. Various social groups came to invite Chen Jicheng, Sun Yuanliang and Huang Wei in the Geleshan Military Academy, and also invited him to give a speech at the military academy, which annoyed him.

After a few days like this, Zhuang Jihua simply went out early every morning and took Yaya to Zhang Jingjiang's house for tea and chat. Watching Yaya and Momo play in the yard, Zhang Jingjiang has many children, but his children are old and the youngest child is also studying at Chongqing University Affiliated High School. The family is very leisurely. Zhang Jingjiang's wife Zhu Yimin is a typical traditional housewife and never asks about her husband. It just so happened that Liu Yinshu is also a person who doesn't like to mix politics. The two women took their children to the backyard, leaving two men to have tea and chat in the front hall.

"Cultural Revolution, do you have any ideas about Zhuchuan this time?" After chatting for a long time, the topic finally fell on this.

"I have some ideas about this, but I'm not yet mature." Zhuang Jihua replied: "Mr. has been the chairman of Zhejiang Province. I hope Mr. will give me some advice."

"Boy, don't disgust me," Zhang Jingjiang smiled and poured her a cup of tea: "I will know in Chongqing. Do you need anyone else to give me some advice?"

"Oh, to be honest, I want to move but not. I want to move because the current system is a bit unreasonable. I want to make some changes; I don't want to move because I'm afraid of giving up halfway, which is not worth the loss." Zhuang Jihua sighed.

"Actually, you just need to open a road. Just like what you did in Chongqing, if others want to do it, let them choose." Zhang Jingjiang smiled faintly and said indifferently.

Zhuang Jihua's eyes flashed and he stared at the teacup in front of him. After a long time, he said slowly: "Maybe this is a solution, but sir, I have also learned about the market recently. Prices are rising rapidly and inflation is serious. Will there be problems in the financial field?"

Zhang Jingjiang thought for a while and said, "Kong Xiangxi was implementing an inflation policy and increasing the amount of money. However, at present, the problem is not big, and the industrial development is relatively fast. However, if the investment continues, the market will always be saturated, and financial risks are accumulating step by step. It seems that your previous concerns may become reality."

"Does the members of the Finance Committee just sit idly?" Zhuang Jihua asked frowned. The Finance Committee was established to prevent such a thing from happening.

"The members themselves argued endlessly. On the one hand, the war requires funds, and on the other hand, the threat of inflation continues to increase. These two are contradictory. If this aspect is satisfied, it will inevitably weaken the other." Zhang Jingjiang said this and shrugged his shoulders slightly, and he smiled funny.

"I thought it would be better to regulate finance. Mr. can propose a proposal in the Finance Committee to prohibit private storage of foreign exchange and stop gold trading." Zhuang Jihua said: "In addition, prices are controlled, food, pork, edible oil and flour are controlled, purchases are restricted, and the quantity purchased for each resident is stipulated every month. The national unified purchase and sale of daily necessities is implemented."

Zhang Jingjiang looked at Zhuang Jihua in amazement. His mind was messy. He never expected that Zhuang Jihua would propose such a solution. After a long time, he asked carefully: "Can you be specific? What are you planning to do?"

"My idea is to determine how much rice he can buy per month according to his age, flour, vegetable oil, candy, cotton cloth, wine, cigarettes, etc., all of which are distributed according to his ID card and household registration, and cloth tickets are issued. The people buy grain with tickets. Correspondingly, the government established a grain bureau to implement unified purchase and sales of daily necessities such as grain, cloth, salt, etc.." Zhuang Jihua smiled at the corner of his mouth. He remembered Kong Xiangxi. He attacked the development company through unified purchase and sales. Now he cannot object, and he adopts the same approach to the rest of the materials. I think he should be mute and eat coptis chinensis, but he can't say anything about it.

"Cultural Revolution, I'm afraid you are opposed to this one, which is probably no less than rent reduction and interest rate reduction, which blocks the financial path of many people." Zhang Jingjiang shook his head gently.

"Sir, do it not work?" Zhuang Jihua asked.

"It's not impossible, at least you need the cooperation of your teacher," Zhang Jingjiang pushed the wheelchair with both hands. Zhuang Jihua quickly stood up and pushed him to the door of the living room. Zhang Jingjiang tilted his head and thought, "Your method is to forcefully compress consumption to alleviate the shortage of supplies. That's it."

"Sir, right, prices have risen a lot. If they continue like this, it will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction among the people. Some people take the opportunity to hoard goods and make a fortune in the national crisis. This behavior must be severely cracked down on this." Zhuang Jihua pushed to the door and paused. Zhang Jingjiang signaled to continue and went to the front yard, so Zhuang Jihua continued to push it into the front yard.

"In spring, you need to bask in more sunshine. Look at the sunshine, how comfortable it is." Zhang Jingjiang narrowed his eyes and hung in the sky.

"Sir, what do you mean?" Zhuang Jihua was a little confused and thought to himself that the old man started to play a puzzle again. He simply stopped in the wheelchair and sat opposite Zhang Jingjiang: "You have to make it clear, okay or not?"

Zhang Jingjiang shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile: "Cultural Revolution, aren't this difficult for me? The governance should be like the sunshine of spring and the warmth of Hexi. But you have been doing the opposite, but have been successful. Sometimes I really don't understand whether God is too kind to you. I really don't know whether this strategy can work. There is not enough. The household registration of the entire Sichuan must be fully counted, and what should I do if the ethnic minorities in Xikang are doing? All of these have to be thought clearly before implementing them."

Zhuang Jihua nodded and said, "At that time, please support me in terms of financial support. In addition, if necessary, please contact business people in the business community for support."

There are only so many requirements for Zhang Jingjiang. China has never controlled grain cloths since ancient times. This kind of controlled economy is completely new to people in the Republic of China. It is very good that Zhang Jingjiang can say this.

"That's natural. What should I do then? Send someone to tell me." Zhang Jingjiang said lightly. Even if Zhuang Jihua didn't say this, he would still express his support. He and Zhuang Jihua were not allies, but family.

After saying this, Zhang Jingjiang was silent for a while and said slowly: "Cultural Revolution, do you think it is time to cultivate your own people? Your teacher alone cannot do it."

Zhuang Jihua's eyes narrowed. He had not told Zhang Jingjiang about Deng Yanda's alliance, nor did he intend to tell him. It was not that he was suspicious, but that he was worried that he would oppose him. Zhang Jingjiang had always lacked a good impression of Deng Yanda, thinking that he was too eager to make progress and was not enough to make trouble. Try not to contact him if he could not contact him.

"I thought that some of the people I like are still in the middle and lower class, and it will take time to lift them up." Zhuang Jihua said: "I have laid a few pieces in the army. At present, they are still only middle and lower class officers, and there are not yet those who stand alone."

"I'm afraid your few pieces have fallen into the eyes of others." Zhang Jingjiang said lightly.

"This is nothing. Although it is in my opinion, I have promoted too many people, and many of them are promoted exceptionally, and he will not be able to make a judgment for a while." Zhuang Jihua is very confident about this. There are all parties in the people he promoted, but Huangpu's background accounts for the majority, which is also the reason why Chiang Kai-shek is difficult to judge, not to mention that Chiang Kai-shek is not clear about his ideological changes.

The tea gradually faded, and the sunlight walked from the incline to the top of the head. The idle days passed quickly. On the second day after Zhao Hanjie led the first special forces to Chongqing, Zhuang Jihua and his family and Zhang Sike boarded the train to Chengdu. A few days ago, Chen Gongbo took his people to Chengdu and became the director of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee.

Chengdu Railway Station is bustling and noisy, and celebrities from all walks of life in Sichuan in Chengdu come to welcome him, which makes Zhuang Jihua feel a little flattered. In the past, he has never received such attention in Chengdu. Every time the provincial party committee sends people to pick him up and live in the provincial party committee.

When Zhuang Jihua saw Zhang Lan standing in front of the queue, he quickly stepped forward: "Cousin, you are here too, it should be my junior who came to visit you."

"You are polite to Chairman Zhuang. Now you are shouldering the expectations of Sichuan people. You should have served as the chairman of Sichuan Province. Unfortunately, Fu Cheng refused, so it was several years late." Zhang Lan said loudly with his beard, regardless of the expressions of Zhang Sike, Qiao Yifu and others.

Zhang Lan's position in Sichuan is very strange, and it is beyond the powers. A considerable number of generals in the Sichuan Army studied in his school before joining the army. For example, Liu Xiang was the deputy battalion commander of the guard battalion when he was the envoy of Xuanwei in North Sichuan. From the road protection movement to the War of Resistance Against Japan, Zhang Lan served as the envoy of Xuanwei in North Sichuan, the governor of Jialing, and a member of Congress. Later, he was dissatisfied with the warlords' stolen the country, resigned from all positions, and focused on teaching and educating people. He was called the Sichuan saint by the Sichuan people. Since the Xinhai period, he has served as the chairman of Sichuan Province and the general in charge. Zhang Lan has never been present, but today he came to the station to welcome Zhuang Jihua. This move is enough to show his attitude.

"Cousin, you should call me the Cultural Revolution," Zhuang Jihua said with a bitter face: "In front of you, I am just a younger generation. To be honest, you have already made me feel anxious when you come here."

"Okay, it's as you wish," Zhang Lan agreed readily, and then introduced the old man around Zhuang Jihua who thought he was also wearing a gray long gown and said: "The Cultural Revolution, this is Mr. Liang Shuming. He came to inspect the rural areas of Sichuan specifically and had a lot of questions to ask you."

"Oh," Zhuang Jihua looked surprised and quickly stretched out his hands: "I have long admired, long admired, I have heard of Mr. Liang's name for a long time. I have never met you all. I have seen you today. I am really happy to see you today. Mr. Liang, I have a lot of problems. I want to ask you for advice, and I would like to ask you for advice."

Liang Shuming's thin face showed a smile: "Captain Zhuang is polite. I have heard Mr. Zuofu mention the general. After coming to Sichuan, I visited Brother Zhongxian's letter recently. When I learned about the general's feat in Henan, I was deeply impressed and wanted to ask the general for advice, so I specially asked the cousin to recommend him."

"Mr. Liang is so polite," Zhuang Jihua sighed: "My door of Zhuang Jihua is always open for me. Mr. can come to my house or the provincial government at any time; of course, if it is inconvenient for me, I should visit me."

He had heard Lu Zuofu say about Liang Shuming's name before, but he did not agree with rural construction at that time, so he didn't pay attention. But the more people he came into contact with, the more likely he would hear the name. He heard about this name again from Jia Zhongxian in Henan. At that time, he made up his mind to meet this famous Liang Shuming with the opportunity. He didn't expect to see him here today. How could this not make him happy?

"This is," Zhang Lan continued to introduce the next old man in a suit and trouser suit. Zhuang Jihua immediately interrupted him: "Cousin, I have known Mr. Ma for a long time, so I won't bother you anymore. Mr. Ma, after leaving Nanjing, I didn't expect to see you here, so I had to be overjoyed."

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Zhang Lan smiled meaningfully.

Ma Yinchu smiled indifferently and held Zhuang Jihua's hand that came out: "General Zhuang, the enemy was defeated by three battles. Ma admired him, but Ma did have something to discuss with the general. I wonder if the general has time?"

Zhuang Jihua smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, if you don't look for me, I want to look for you too. Regarding Sichuan Zheng, I still have many questions to ask for advice. Please don't leave Chengdu first, please? I will visit you at that time."

"Oh," Ma Yinchu looked at Zhuang Jihua with some surprise: "I must be waiting."

Ma Yinchu and Liang Shuming were two unexpected surprises. Most of the others were familiar figures. Most of the generals of the Sichuan Army's main army left Sichuan. Tian Songyao and Liu Wenhui Luo Zezhou also returned from Xikang Nanchong, Chongqing and made a special trip to greet them. The rest were middle and low-level generals, mainly brigade commanders. Zhuang Jihua also treated them with a good face, and everyone was very happy for a while. The entire station was filled with a festive atmosphere.

Zhuang Jihua issued a brief statement at the station, in which he expressed his ambition to reform Sichuan government, develop people's livelihood, and build Sichuan into a base for the War of Resistance.

Others did not pay attention, but Ma Yinchu was careful. After the meeting, he and Zhang Lan and Liang Shuming returned to Sichuan University. Sichuan University had two cars. These three cars were donated by the Southwest Development Team. After the Chongqing Automobile Factory produced an off-road jeep, all the cars in the team were eliminated and donated to various universities. Li Zhilong ordered two of them to Sichuan University.

"How is it? I'm right, the Cultural Revolution is different from other people." Zhang Lan said first in the car and broke the silence: "Shou Ming, Yin Chu, what do you think?"

"The rough side is not enough to be seen," Liang Shuming said lightly: "But he is not as arrogant as an ordinary warrior, and he is considered a gentleman."

If Zhuang Jihua heard this evaluation, he would probably be very happy. He didn't expect that this Confucian scholar would get such an evaluation.

"Brother Shou Ming, you probably underestimated Zhuang Wenge," Ma Yinchu, who was sitting on the co-pilot, turned to him and told him that he had served in the Resource Development Committee and had his ideas for issuing legal currency. Now he is a government politician and a university professor. He knows a lot about Zhuang Jihua: "Zhuang Wenge also has a certain understanding of finance. He is not like a simple soldier. You can understand Chongqing's economic policies. In addition to military industry, the private economy still develops rapidly."

Zhang Lan was very proud. He stroked his beard with his hand: "Shou Ming, I know that he has different opinions from you. You advocate rural construction, he advocates reducing rent and interest rates, and first reduces the burden on farmers. It is hard to say which one of you is right or wrong, but from the perspective of the effect, his effect is better than yours, and this cannot be ignored."

Liang Shuming has carried out rural construction in Hebei, Henan and Shandong. Every place is very good at the beginning, but every time it goes deeper, it is difficult to move forward, and people's lives are limited. Once they evacuate, the reforms in the area will fail completely.

Liang Shuming was not a quibbling person. He just sighed lightly and shut up. But Ma Yinchu was very excited: "Cousin, have you noticed that Zhuang Wenge said in his statement just now that he wanted to reform Sichuan government, develop people's livelihood, and benefit the people's people. Where do you think he plans to start?"

"I think it's better to improve the rent reduction and interest rate reduction." Zhang Lan said after thinking about it, rent reduction and interest rate reduction are both prosperous in eastern, central and southern Sichuan, but in some areas of northern Sichuan, the land rent has been reversed, and some areas of Xikang have also retreated. The provincial party committee has investigated and dealt with a batch, but it has not been eradicated.

"I don't think so, I think he wants to take action against the financial industry. Now the financial risks are getting bigger and bigger, and the currency issuance volume exceeds the 1.8 billion times that determined at the beginning. If this situation does not change, sooner or later there will be big problems one day, prices will completely lose control, and inflation will be difficult to think about." Ma Yinchu was indeed very keen, and he analyzed Zhuang Jihua's ideas from the lines.

"No," Zhang Lan expressed doubts: "Developing people's livelihood means reforming finance. At the beginning of Yin, although I don't understand the economy, there are many ways to develop people's livelihood, not just finance."

"When fiat currency was issued, Yu Qiaqing and Zhang Jingjiang came to us and raised a concern, that is, the currency issuance is out of control. This shows that today's situation. They thought about the relationship between Zhang Jingjiang and Yu Qiaqing and Zhuang Wenge was quite shallow. Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and Siming Bank were supported by Zhuang Jihua. This is likely to be instructed by Zhuang Wenge to them."

"Oh, I said Yinchu, you are a member of the Finance Committee, why didn't you raise it in the Finance Committee?" Liang Shuming asked strangely.

Ma Yinchu gave Liang Shuming a blank look and thought to himself that you really don’t give me some face. He was a little embarrassed. He smiled bitterly and said, “Why don’t you know I didn’t mention it? No one listened. Kong Xiangxi stuffed half of the followers into the Finance Committee. We have no choice at all. I have talked about this issue with Zhang Jingjiang. He suggested that I discuss with Zhuang Wenge and hope he can come up with a solution.”

Having said that, Ma Yinchu still dared not expect Zhuang Jihua to come up with a solution. His greatest hope was to use this person's mouth to react to Chiang Kai-shek and remind Chiang Kai-shek to pay attention to this issue.

Zhuang Jihua didn't ask him to wait long. After announcing his inauguration the next day, he came to Sichuan University to visit that afternoon. He first visited him. The questions he raised surprised and happy Ma Yinchu.
