1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 420 Why are you here again?

As a designated guide, Yang Mo felt very miserable.

Perhaps due to an unspoken rule, when the old man learned that the Coriolus polypore property rights financial transaction project involving 27 villages including Zhenjia Village had successfully raised 680 million US dollars in the first phase alone by relying on the unharvested Coriolus polypore and those old poplar trees (at that time, Hong Kong's investment and financial loans to the inland were mainly in Hong Kong dollars, British pounds and US dollars), there was an obvious and subtle change in the old man's attitude towards Yang Mo.

So, while the old man was inspecting many experimental projects full of strange and ingenious ideas in various places, he also took the trouble to dig out some new terms and concepts from Yang Mo that he had never heard of before.

From the valuing of ecological resources to the financialization of ecological resources, and then to the foreign family offices behind these games and their asset allocation plans;

From the negative externalities of the agricultural industry to GDP, from GDP to GNP, from GNP to finance and exchange rate leverage, and finally to GEP (Gross Ecosystem Product), as well as the leverage and scale multipliers involved;

From the unsustainability analysis of the Anglo-Saxon agricultural model, to the stubborn problems of the Rhine agricultural model, to the disadvantages of the pan-marketization of the East Asian self-cultivation agricultural model;

Should we learn from Europe and the United States in all aspects or absorb and accommodate them partially? Should we focus on "innovation" or "creation of the old"?
From the concept of inequality between agriculture and rural areas, to the various industries in rural areas, to the necessity of sinking some secondary industrial links to the grassroots level in rural areas;
From the local production and local sales model, to the GSA idea (Community Supported Agriculture) introduced behind it, to the island country's agricultural cooperatives and South Korea's Consumer Life Cooperative Association and the current situation of production and marketing mutual assistance; then returned to the regional production and marketing coordination of bulk agricultural products, and finally talked about Thailand's agricultural green revolution in the 60s and the country's KKF (the "Fish and Rice Culture Project" implemented in the northeast of Thailand in 1984 based on applicable technology, which later evolved into the famous God of Rice Foundation) multiple practices;

During the discussion, we even inserted the challenge posed by the Peruvian Andean Peasant Technology Association (PRATEC) to the Western agricultural system, as well as the alternative farming experiments based on natural ecological science that those intellectuals who returned to their hometowns carried out in rural areas after combining their country's actual conditions, which may achieve the replacement of modern agricultural technology.

Barabara...

In short, for the next five days, Yang Mo accompanied the old man around and talked. He talked until he was thirsty during the day, and at night, the old man aroused his interest and forced him to drink several large glasses of wine, completely ignoring the fact that the old man had a very poor alcohol tolerance.

If Yang Mo was not a young man, and Ye Tao and the squad leader and deputy squad leader were not present at the dinner table, outsiders would almost think that the old man had some unusual thoughts about Yang Mo.

Fortunately, people like the old man have a very tight schedule. Even if he had to make temporary changes or even cancel some of the itinerary, after staying in Texas for six days, he had to return after repeated reminders from his secretary.

Ok……

I forgot to mention that the old man’s original itinerary was to stay in Texas for three days.

........................

"Hoo~!"

After seeing the old man off, Yang Mo returned to his office and collapsed on the sofa like a dead dog, allowing his young apprentice to help him untie that evil tie.

This guy hates ties. He always thinks they are dog chains tied around people's necks. If there were no dress code requirements when accompanying leaders, he would never wear this thing even if he was beaten to death.

While helping Yang Mo untie his brand new tie, Bai Mengmeng looked at his master with disdain: "Master, you've only been drinking for two nights, and I heard you didn't drink much, but you're so cowardly... If you were in Guizhou, you'd have to lie under the table all day!"

As Yang Mo's only disciple, she knew that Yang Mo's muddy appearance was not because he was really tired, but simply because he had not yet recovered from the hangover from last night.

She was convinced by her master's ability at work, but when it came to his drinking capacity...

Haha, even if she picked up a stray dog ​​from the street, it could drink more than Yang Mo!
Yang Mo rolled his eyes: "I, your master, am naturally allergic to alcohol... Besides, what's so good about alcohol!"

Bai Mengmeng looked at him with disdain: "Master, what we are saying is that if you can't drink well, then you can drink well. You can get better with more practice. This is called knowing shame and then being brave... Why do you always talk about your physical condition? Besides, even if you are allergic to alcohol, you won't fall down after drinking two ounces of alcohol, right!?"

Yang Mo was furious and gave the girl a slap in the face. "You've grown so capable that you even know how to confront your own master... Go, make me a cup of Pu'er tea, a stronger one... I feel uncomfortable all over, I need to drink some strong tea to calm down."

Bai Mengmeng grinned and rubbed his small bag of melon seeds, and shouted in dissatisfaction: "Master, you messed up my hair!"

Having said that, he still obediently took out the last half cake of Pu'er tea from the cupboard and picked up the tea needle to pry up the tea.

"By the way, Master, I talked to my father on the phone a few days ago. He was very interested in the property finance model we are using. He said that there are many mountains in Tongren and there are some trees with great economic value. He plans to operate it according to your method... Master, what do you think?"

Bai Mengmeng carefully broke apart the tea leaves one by one while looking at his master eagerly.

Yang Mo was not secretive about his apprentice, nor did he object to her sharing what she had learned with her father from time to time. Therefore, she had known about the property rights finance model that Zhenjia Village had developed based on Coriolus versicolor and old poplar trees more than two months ago. She had also specifically told her father about it. However, as the person in charge of the local poverty alleviation work, Bai Mengmeng's father had always been cautious about this new thing, so nothing happened.

But now...

The situation is naturally a little different.

Yang Mo knew why his little apprentice was asking this question. He rubbed his temples to relieve his dizzy brain and smiled indifferently: "I don't have any objection. As long as your father can handle his colleagues, I don't mind introducing Mitsubishi Bank to him... It's just a matter of a phone call."

Although Tongren is not an ethnic autonomous region like Qianxinan that can conduct pilot projects without reporting, Guizhou's unique situation means that even in a region like Tongren with many ethnic townships and autonomous counties, as long as the team and all departments agree, there will be basically no procedural difficulties.

Hearing that Yang Mo was willing to introduce Mitsubishi Bank to his father, Bai Mengmeng was overjoyed and immediately ran over and began to massage his master's temples obediently: "I knew... Master, you are the best!"

Guizhou is famous for the fact that "there is no flat land for three miles and no silver for the people". Before the country started large-scale payment transfers, transportation difficulties, investment attraction difficulties and insufficient funds have always been the three most difficult problems in the area. Yang Mo is willing to introduce Mitsubishi Bank to the country. The weight of this gift is very important at the moment... The weight of different people's words is different. Whether it is the relationship with Sankyo Co., Ltd., or the tens of thousands of acres of mouth-watering authentic medicinal materials GAP planting base, or the cooperative relationship between the two parties in the financial transaction of Coriolus polygoni multiflori property rights, it determines that as long as Yang Mo opens his mouth, it is basically unlikely that Mitsubishi Bank will let his father return empty-handed.

It has to be said that Bai Mengmeng was very dedicated to pleasing his master. He even found Tugou and an old doctor from the staff hospital to learn some massage. Although he was not proficient in the skills, with the appropriate amount of light and heavy finger techniques, after a few rounds, the drowsiness in Yang Mo's head was greatly relieved, and he gradually entered a state of emptiness. He even forgot to ask his little apprentice to make tea.

"Master, this morning Director Du from the Sales Department came to look for you, but when he found you were not there, he left."

Seeing that Yang Mo's spirit was gradually improving, Bai Mengmeng hurriedly reported her work to her master... In addition to being Yang Mo's apprentice, she was also Yang Mo's assistant and secretary. During the days when Yang Mo accompanied the leaders on inspections, he had a lot of work to report.

Du Chuanming?
Yang Mo closed his eyes and continued to enjoy the refreshing feeling of relaxation: "What does Minister Du want to talk to me about?"

Due to past reasons, Du Chuanming would generally not take the initiative to report to Yang Mo except at the company's middle and senior management meetings. In addition, everyone knew that Yang Mo had been wandering around with an old man these days, so it was indeed unusual for him to come here so early in the morning at this juncture.

Bai Mengmeng sneered, "What else could it be? Didn't Executive Ye and his team release a large number of light industrial orders to the public during this period? According to your instructions, all the tertiary industry units under our company that meet the requirements will participate in the bidding for the corresponding projects;"

"But the orders for this quarter were almost all released, and only two of the more than 100 tertiary industry companies were successful in the bidding... Seeing that they couldn't eat the meat and made countless jokes, the people below were not happy and started to make a fuss."

"In the past two or three months, the tertiary industry units that have been integrated internally by Business Department 1 are the most numerous. With all this commotion going on, Minister Du can't sit still any longer... So, I want to ask you, Master, to give some orders to the people below to calm their emotions."

Yang Mo chuckled twice: "I can't help you with this. Those orders are issued by the competent authorities of DZ City, and they are directly aimed at all walks of life. The city is currently working hard to create a good business atmosphere. If you want to get the orders, you have to fight for them with your own strength... It's useless to ask me for mercy!"

Bai Mengmeng nodded with a smile: "That's what I told him, but he's not that easy to fool. He said that what Executive Ye and his team put out for public bidding is only a part of the list. They have a lot of internal orders for other local companies in their hands."

A smile appeared on Yang Mo's lips: "But what does this have to do with me, and what does it have to do with him... I'm not the deputy general manager who is specifically in charge of the operation and management of the subordinate tertiary industry units. He can't expect me to be thick-skinned and go to Executive Ye to beg for mercy and ask for food for those tertiary industry units, right?" Since the resurrection, the position of Yang Mo's deputy general manager has actually been quite subtle. From the perspective of responsibilities, his position as deputy general manager is "executive deputy general manager", which means that all work needs to be reported to him, and he can participate in all work. Any major operation and management decisions of Dahua Company need his participation in the formulation;
However, what is interesting is that, generally speaking, the executive vice president will be in charge of a number of specific departments and businesses at the same time... For example, the former vice president Tang of the drilling company was in charge of the core department of asset management, plus the two logistics departments of the service team and Xintai Company.

But Yang Mo, the current executive vice president, is not in charge of any specific department or business... Although Zhang Bo and Li Ming from Business Department 3 and Asset Preservation Department 2 are indeed his people, and even the current office director Song Wenxuan, Zhuo Mali from the Legal and Compliance Department, and Lin Luosu from Asset Preservation Department 1 all follow his lead, but in terms of his job scope, he does not have direct jurisdiction over any department.

This obviously abnormal functional arrangement is very subtle, and it also directly reflects some of the thoughts in the Dongying Command's mind when they reinstated him.

The original idea was to use the method of power restriction to force Yang Mo to use people from Dongying, and then realize the real binding between him and Dahua Company. However, Yang Mo took a different approach and only relied on the satellite companies established at the beginning to solve most of the diversion businesses that were originally imposed on him, and even opened up a second battlefield, so that he could fly freely from then on.

So now, the Dongying Headquarters's practice of restricting his power has become a shield for him... Anyway, I am not in charge of any department, nor am I responsible for any specific business. As long as Dahua Company can complete its core tasks this year, he can say "It's none of my business" about the rest of the crap!
Bai Mengmeng thought of the Dongying Command's arrangement of shooting itself in the foot, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "Yes, so I also told Minister Du that regarding the management of the tertiary industry company, it would be better for him to go to the Deputy General Manager Shen who was transferred here more than two months ago."

Yang Mo nodded approvingly: "Well said, the division of labor must be clear!"

Bai Mengmeng continued to massage his master's temples: "But I don't know what medicine Minister Du took today. He refused to leave and said he had to wait for you to come back... Even if you don't help them get some orders, it would be great to listen to your opinions and give some advice on how to improve the operating conditions of those tertiary industry units."

Oh?
Hearing the implication of Du Chuanming's words, Yang Mo laughed: "It seems that our Minister Du has also been driven crazy by those unpromising guys. In order to grab funds and budgets, they wanted to embrace all the tertiary industry units in their arms... Now you know that they are all hot potatoes, right?"

After making a joke, Yang Mo became curious again: "From the looks of it, our Minister Du Chuanming should be determined to fight to the end today. Why didn't I see him when I came back? Does that mean he was just talking and left halfway?"

Bai Mengmeng sneered, "How could that be? That guy even brought an ashtray with him, and he refused to leave until he saw you, the master. Later, I just couldn't stand him smoking in your office, so I used your identity as your little apprentice to give him some advice, and then I sent him away."

Huh?
Yang Mo turned his head in surprise and looked at his disciple who looked a little proud. "What did you do to make this guy leave so obediently?"

Bai Mengmeng puffed out his small chest with some pride: "Master, although in your eyes, I am just a stupid apprentice who knows nothing, but at least I have been learning from you for almost a year, okay? Apart from other things, I still understand some basic things... Although these things are not up to standard in your eyes, they are basically enough to deal with a loser like Du Chuanming who has academic qualifications but no knowledge."

At this point, the young disciple turned Yang Mo's head back, so that his master wouldn't see the smug expression on his face and scold him again: "Actually, the trick I gave Minister Du is also very simple..."

"I told him, Master, you once said that the reason why most tertiary industry units have low work efficiency, chaotic management, and poor product quality control is that at most only 30% of the responsibility can be attributed to grassroots employees;"

"To use your words, if a company has serious problems, most of the responsibility should be placed on the shoulders of middle and senior managers... For a small and micro enterprise that focuses on production, no matter if you are middle or senior manager, if your work is not on the front line, you are basically useless people who will only cause trouble;"

"So, as long as you have the courage to fire all the middle and senior managers of those companies with problems, and then randomly select a few relatively obedient workers from the grassroots to promote them, and then adopt the leadership accountability system, that is, no matter what link has problems, the leaders of the department are the first responsible person, and then severely punish them, then 90% of the problems can basically be solved... For small and micro-sized production enterprises, it is a taboo among taboos for laymen to lead professionals, and it is also the main reason for the emergence of various problems. However, this situation is widely present in the tertiary production units under Dahua Company."

At the end of the conversation, Bai Mengmeng covered her mouth and laughed, "You know what, Master, your reputation is quite useful. After listening to my advice, Minister Du's face turned pale and he was stunned for a while. Finally, he slapped his thigh hard and left... Before leaving, he thanked me profusely and said he would treat me to a big meal some other day!"

Yang Mo turned his head in surprise and looked at his little disciple seriously for a long time. Only when the little disciple showed a slightly uneasy expression on his face did he laugh.

"Xiaobai, I originally thought that you were a slow learner, but now it seems..."

At this point, Yang Mo sighed with emotion: "You are right. After all, you have been with me for almost a year. You have indeed learned a lot in these days... Well done!"

The last sentence, however, was a sincere affirmation of his little disciple.

Although he and Du Chuanming did not get along, and he did not want to interfere in the affairs of the tertiary industry units under Dahua Company right away, but one thing is for sure, what Bai Mengmeng said to Du Chuanming did point out the most core problems currently existing in those tertiary industry units. Although the suggestions given were rough, they were still a feasible method at the moment.

As a master, seeing the apprentices he taught make progress, it is difficult for those who do not have children to understand this feeling of satisfaction with a hint of sadness.

Hearing that his master actually gave him positive affirmation and said the four words "well done", Bai Mengmeng stood there in a daze, even stopping the movements of his hands.

pat~
pat~
Somehow, tears as big as beans suddenly fell and my eyes turned red.

No one knows how lucky it is to meet a master who is willing to teach you knowledge without reservation.

But few people also know how much psychological pressure it is to be a disciple when you are faced with a master who has such great powers, is very arrogant, and has extremely strict standards.

Although Yang Mo seldom scolded her since he joined Dahua Company...even if he did, he would not scold her as harshly as he did in the drilling company.

But precisely because of this, her psychological pressure will become greater and greater.

She knew very well that the reason her master acted like this was partly because of the change in his relationship with Uncle Zhang, but more importantly, he felt that the time they had left to spend together was running out, so he became more tolerant of her... Bai Mengmeng was just a transition in Qilu, and it wouldn't be long before she would be "exchanged" to Tongren and return to her father.

So, during this period of time, Bai Mengmeng has devoted almost all of his energy to work and study every day... The two are interdependent. If you don't participate in those piles of specific work and run around, you won't be able to more deeply understand and digest the knowledge taught by your master; and without the knowledge taught by your master as a theoretical basis, it will be easy to lose your way when dealing with work, and even be led astray by the people below.

But the problem is, as she gradually deepened her study and practice, she felt more and more how unfathomable her master was and how profound the things he taught her were;
She even had the illusion that, in her entire life, she would be lucky if she could digest 30% to 40% of what her master was currently teaching her... not to mention stringing all that stuff together into a complete logical coherence.

What's even more frightening is that this is only what Yang Mo has been teaching so far. As for how much knowledge her master has that has not been shared because she, a stupid disciple, cannot keep up with the learning progress... she doesn't know, she really doesn't know.

However, since a person of Mr. Zhao's level could make him stay in Texas for three full days just for his master, one can imagine the amount and quality of knowledge in his master's head.

It is precisely because of this that Yang Mo is like a peak in her heart that can never be crossed, and even her top cannot be seen.

Now, this peak whose top cannot even be seen actually tells her in a gratified tone: "Apprentice, you have finally grown up, and you have done a good job." The meaning is roughly the same as that of Mr. Yuan standing in front of a young grassroots agricultural technician, patting you gently on the shoulder, and then kindly telling you that the young man has done a very good job... Although this metaphor is a bit exaggerated and inappropriate, it is roughly the same meaning.

Therefore, under such agitated emotions, Bai Mengmeng actually started to cry like a loser.

But when she started crying, Yang Mo was completely panicked. There were probably few men in this world who were not afraid of women's tears... It had nothing to do with your mental age, or whether you were mature or not. It was purely human nature.

Just when Yang Mo was at a loss as to whether to wipe it or not...

A teasing voice with a hint of laughter came from outside the door: "Boss Yang, you have to choose the right occasion when you are scolding your apprentice... This is an office. Even if you are not afraid of leaving a bad reputation, you should at least give Assistant Bai some face... After all, she is a young girl. How can she bear your scolding every three days and every five days!"

Hearing a certain peach's voice that was already very familiar, Yang Mo turned his head away in dismay and was about to ask, "Which ear of yours heard me scolding my own little disciple?"

As a result, when I turned my head, I saw a few figures that shouldn't have appeared here at this time.

"Hey, why are you here again?"

Perhaps because the hangover had not completely subsided, Yang Mo subconsciously spoke out his thoughts...
