Comrade Zhengren:

Zhu Lizhi¹ has written a report at my request, and it is of considerable value; I
wonder whether or not he made a copy for you and Gao Gang.² If not, please ask
him for a copy, which can serve as a reference when you draft the program for
finance and the economy. Before you draft this document, please discuss the matter with Nan Hanchen,³ Gao Zili,⁴ Ye Jizhuang,⁵ Zhu Lizhi, and the various people
in the grain bureau and the trade bureau. They are the ones doing the actual practical work, so that acquiring accurate materials and opinions from them is the way
to make what you draft more accurate. With respectful salutations!

Mao Zedong
