Iron Bull Legend

"In fact, I also want to fight and compete, but I am just an ordinary little person. How can I compete with those people who are scheming for personal gain? What's wrong with living every day quietly and happily? I once heard a few words from a mainland cadre who lives here. He said that standing at a height like him is also a kind of suffering. Every day he is thinking about whether this thing or that thing is right. He first judges the danger of this thing and whether it is worth doing for his own interests. In his opinion, it is better to stay out of it, unless it involves his own vital interests, unless it endangers his own safety, otherwise, it is better to stay away from those intrigues and petty schemes. I feel that what he said is very right, so I have also thought about it and summarized it myself. A person only lives for a few decades. It's good to be happy and comfortable. Do you think I am lazy?

"Everyone has his own opinion. Everyone has his own choice. You can't be said to be lazy. The main thing is that you have used your hard work and wisdom to get what you want. This is enough. In fact, aren't you living a good life now?"

"Yes, I live a good life. In fact, sometimes I am also troubled. I am troubled that if I had made one more effort and taken one more step forward at a certain point in time, I would not be who I am now. However, today, I finally understand that if I had taken that step forward, I would not be who I am today. Maybe I would not be truly happy."

"Haha, you are right. That step forward may be a bottomless abyss. Maybe, after taking that step, you will lose happiness, joy, and even your own ideas. Now, even though you haven't taken that step, you can breathe freely and do whatever you want, right?" Tie Niu looked at the girl in front of him, because what he said was right.

It's like corrupt officials in officialdom. Once they take the first step, even if it is small, they have still taken it. Once this step is taken, there will be a second, third, and even a hundredth step, and they will gradually deviate from the people and the country. That is, after this step is taken, it is very difficult to stop.

If this step is towards the sunshine, then you should be bold, hold your head high and go forward bravely, because there is sunshine ahead, no darkness, so run forward fearlessly.

"Sir, I know you are a good official, and even more so a wise one. The reason I recommend myself to you is because I also have a dream of being a good official. Although I don't have the opportunity to do it myself, I think being able to serve you tea and water and solve your daily needs will make me happier than being an official myself, because I know I don't have the brains to adapt to the twists and turns of officialdom. Seeing you solving problems for the common people and redressing grievances for mountain people like me, I feel that this is what I can do."

When Xiaowan said this, there was a blush on her face due to excitement. Perhaps this was her gratitude to Tie Niu for allowing Tie Niu to investigate those people.

Tie Niu could see a sense of simplicity in Li Xiaowan, and he had a sincere feeling for the simple mountain people in the mountains. This might be a feeling of loving the house and loving the dog in it. However, this feeling was very subtle, it was the kind of sunny and pure without impurities.

"Well, but let me tell you something. There is a little girl next to me, her name is He Wen, she is very quiet, but she is very stubborn and eager to learn, so I have arranged for her to study with a good teacher, to learn how to govern, how to solve problems for the people, and how to think long-term for the party and the country."

"How old is she this year?" Li Xiaowan thought about what Tie Niu said and couldn't help but ask directly.

"You are seventeen years old this year, which is the best age for learning. Therefore, I want to train him. I have seen you, your intelligence, and your attitude towards work. I want to let you first enter the industry you are proficient in to implement your talents and train a group of elites to exercise yourself. The time is ripe. Do you understand what I mean?" Tie Niu looked at Li Xiaowan with clear eyes.

"Sir, do you want to train me too?"

"Yes, I have a plan. In fact, you said that I can govern an area by myself, but my power is small after all. I can only see this small world. So, I just made a model. With such a model, won't everyone follow suit?" Tie Niu's own words already gave a feeling, that is, he really didn't want to work like this anymore.

"Sir, do you want to be a hero behind the scenes? But how can you know whether others will learn everything you did? I have discussed this question with my teacher before. To be honest, everyone has their own ideas and thoughts. Although the country you have built is good, his thoughts may not be consistent with your plan. This is the contradiction, and you can't say that he is wrong."

"Well, your point is correct, and your teacher's idea is not wrong either. However, think about how much I can do alone. Time is running out. I can only catch it first, and then slowly correct it. Sometimes what I do may not be correct. You don't deny this, right?"

"Well, I can't refute what you said. No one is perfect. I think your idea is correct. Sir, your thinking direction is correct. If anyone goes astray, just correct him. It's better than fighting alone in the front and tiring yourself to death."

"That's exactly what I thought. So, once things here are settled, immediately devote yourself to the field you are familiar with. I have prepared an opportunity for you to learn. If you don't seize it, I will be very disappointed." Tie Niu laughed.

"I will definitely follow your teachings, do my job well in the shortest time, and then report to you. Don't let him forget me and say hurtful things like "Who are you? Who are you looking for?" I won't agree and will make trouble for you." Li Xiaowan was much more cheerful at this time.

"Then let's make an agreement. When your work over there is finished, I will arrange a suitable teacher for you here, so that you will have the opportunity to govern your hometown in the second half of your life and make due contributions to your hometown. The future of your hometown is in your hands. Whether the people of your hometown can get rid of poverty and move towards a prosperous life depends on your knowledge and your wisdom."

"Sir, I won't say anything grandiose to you now, and I won't swear an oath. I will only do it. Even if I don't achieve my goal, at least I have tried my best. I can use my life's efforts to fulfill my oath. I also want to be a person like you, and a good official like you."

“Haha...haha, I really hope that our Xiaowan can become a heroine and an outstanding woman in China. Let’s work hard together.” Tie Niu made a cheering gesture.

Tie Niu was able to more deeply understand the importance of his decision through chatting with Li Xiaowan. Even if he worked himself to death, he could only solve one part of the world. So, why not change that and let his knowledge and experience directly break this barrier.

It is up to every individual to make the whole country truly form its own governing philosophy and get everyone truly moving, because only when everyone's strength is pulled together, the country will be more united and will be able to use everyone's wisdom and knowledge to create a new world.

Thinking of this, Tie Niu took out paper and pen and started working again. Li Xiaowan was also very tactful and poured a cup of tea and left, because she really wanted to stay with the reality for a while longer. Even if she didn't say anything, just watching quietly, it was a kind of happiness, a silent happiness.

The world is changing, and people's thoughts have taken another step forward. This step has great revolutionary significance, just like he came from Ping'an Town to Huangmei Town, and then to Yangcheng. Each step has epoch-making historical significance.

Every step he took was very easy, because he had advantages that ordinary people did not have. However, this was only his own effort. Some external assistance was also inseparable. Just like in Ping'an Town, with the deputy mayor in charge, the county magistrate, the county party secretary and the organization department minister all surrounded the deputy mayor, making it easier for him to walk. With the commander-in-chief in charge, he really developed in Ping'an with the wings to take off.

Now, in Huangmei Town, with the help of Commander Zhang of the Southern Military Region and the assistance of those second-generation rich people from abroad, his ideas have spread directly, becoming an opportunity for the development of Huangmei Town, allowing Huangmei Town to take off immediately.

It was Commander Zhang's mysterious feeling that made Secretary Xiao Yuntian and Secretary Chen Dakai of the Provincial Party Committee go on an incognito visit. Everything was so natural and yet not so peaceful, because there was inevitability in the middle, and everything else supported this inevitability.

All these things are for the sake of development. From the small mountain village of Ping'an Town to Yangcheng, my thoughts and concepts have made a qualitative leap. I am no longer limited to my simple city and pond, which led to today's achievements.

In addition, the governance of Yangcheng made Tie Niu deeply realize that the power of one person is limited. Only by mobilizing everyone and working together can things be done, and great things be accomplished.

Therefore, Tie Niu has really figured out a truth now. Even if he works hard, he can only control one city or one pond. If he trains more cadres like Su Zhongqiang, Mayor Huang and Chen Xiao, as well as assistants like Jiao Yuankui and Ye Daying, then even if he is not in Yangcheng, he can develop naturally. This is what he wants.

After arriving in Guangzhou, the lectures he gave at the Provincial Party School made him truly fall in love with the profession of lecturer and this great cause of educating people.

"Only by continuing this great cause of teaching and educating people can we truly pursue our goal and establish the foundation for China's rise. Only by educating people from all regions of the country can we truly revitalize China, revitalize China's economy, and make prosperity a reality."
