Officialdom: From village head to provincial party secretary

Soon, Ni Ni tidied up a little and walked towards the kitchen.

As Zhao Liming's secretary, Ni Ni not only has to take charge of Zhao Liming's daily work, but also has to be available to report at any time.

At the same time, Ni Ni is also responsible for taking care of some simple daily necessities.

So, Ni Ni simply lived in Zhao Liming's house.

"Who is this?"

Chen Jingyun was also attracted by Ni Ni.

But he remembered that Zhao Liming's wife was Chen Xiuzhen.

But the little girl in front of me was obviously not that.

"Don't mind, Mr. Chen. She is my secretary general, named Ni Ni. She is a very capable girl. She and several comrades from the provincial party committee usually live in my place."

Zhao Limin was afraid of misunderstanding and quickly explained.

He didn't lie.

Not only Ni Ni, but also Song Lingyue and Long Yan actually live in this inconspicuous courtyard.

Ni Ni lives here because of work and to make it convenient to take care of Zhao Liming.

As for Song Lingyue and Long Yan, they were purely worried about his safety, so they had to choose to protect him.

"Are there any other comrades living here?"

Chen Jingyun was even more shocked.

The top leader of the Western Regions.

But he lives with his subordinates.

It is really rare.

After all, leaders like to think quietly.

Who likes living with a group of subordinates?

"Yes! They are usually quite busy at work, so it's good for them to communicate with each other. However, they are often away from home, and it's difficult for them to come back once a month."

Zhao Limin explained with a smile.

"It's so rare, so rare..."

Chen Jingyun sighed.

Being able to make a provincial leader reach this level is already the ultimate.

At least, Chen Jingyun couldn't do it.

"Boss, dinner is ready."

At this time, Ni Ni finally finished cooking.

Three dishes, one soup and a green vegetable.

Moreover, they are all specialties from the Western Regions and are very fragrant. Paired with a pot of wine, they are simply delicious.

"it is good!"

Zhao Liming is more easy-going.

"Mr. Chen, try my rice from the Western Regions."

Zhao Liming personally served food to Chen Jingyun.

"Okay, okay..."

Chen Jingyun was filled with emotion.

"Little comrade, come and eat with us!"

Zhao Liming spoke to the driver beside him.

"I... OK, OK..."

The driver was a little flattered.

Finally agreed.

We sat down together and had our meal.

Although it is not some delicacies from land and sea, it tastes really good.

Chen Jingyun and the driver praised it continuously.

Ni Ni felt embarrassed.

"Comrade Limin, the reason I came here this time is actually..."

We have eaten and exchanged pleasantries enough.

Chen Jingyun finally told the purpose of his visit.

Although, the Western Regions does not need an old man like me.

But if we just go back like this.

He was really unwilling to accept this.

So, he finally thickened his skin.

"It is a blessing for our Western Region and even more so for the people of Li that Elder Chen can come to help us. Look, how about this? Our Western Region is in need of a second-in-command. Why not ask Elder Chen to take on this important task?"

Zhao Liming knew what Chen Jingyun wanted to say next.

But in order to give him face.

Just say it yourself.

In this way, he not only gets enough face.

Even...it turned out that I was the one who invited him to take the position.

"Comrade Limin, this..."

Chen Jingyun was startled.

He looked at Zhao Liming with almost disbelief.

You know, he didn't come here to ask for any high official salary.

He just wanted to do something for the people, so he would have nothing to say if he was given the position of a clerk.

But Zhao Liming is very good.

Directly let him be the second-in-command of the Western Region.

Even to give him enough face.

These words came out of his mouth on purpose?

"Mr. Chen, there is no need to say anything. With your ability and experience, this position belongs to you. Besides, my Western Region is currently in need of talents like Mr. Chen to take charge of the overall situation!"

Did Zhao Liming know what Chen Jingyun wanted to say?

So, he interrupted him again and spoke very seriously.

He really didn't lie.

The Western Regions today have everything they need except talent.

Especially old leaders like Chen Jingyun.

"Alas! I am so ashamed! Just because of Comrade Limin's words, I, Chen Jingyun, have lost my life in the Western Regions."

After hearing what Zhao Liming said, Chen Jingyun felt extremely ashamed.

If it were someone else.

Met his old rival.

It must be a humiliation.

Then send you to a marginal department.

But he is good.

Not only will we let bygones be bygones.

He was even made the second-in-command.

That alone.

Chen Jingyun felt inferior to him.

"Mr. Chen, you are too kind. We are all dedicated to serving the people. We will not sacrifice our lives for them."

Zhao Liming knew what Chen Jingyun meant.

So, he deliberately made a joke to change the subject.

Why did Chen Jingyun appear in the Western Regions?

Very simple.

He knew his past mistakes.

So, he came here specifically to atone for his sins.

That being the case.

Why should I worry about it?

"Comrade Limin is right. We are wholeheartedly working for the people."

Chen Jingyun wiped away his tears with emotion.

Compared with Zhao Liming's ability.

Perhaps he admires his broad-mindedness more!

Because many people can't be as magnanimous as him.

“Leader, leader…”

Just as the two were talking about this, an urgent voice rang out.

I saw Song Lingyue running in hurriedly from outside.

But when she saw someone at home, she immediately stopped and glanced at Chen Jingyun.

"have you eaten?"

Zhao Liming didn't ask what it was.

Instead, he asked Song Lingyue if she had eaten.

"I've eaten. Something important."

Song Lingyue nodded.

He looked at Chen Jingyun again and changed the subject.

"It's okay, we're one family, just tell me if you have something to say."

Zhao Liming interrupted Song Lingyue's concerns and spoke directly.

Chen Jingyun was deeply moved by Zhao Liming's words.

Obviously Zhao Liming treated him as his own.

When Song Lingyue heard this, she also nodded.

Nothing more was said.

Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Someone from the Xiyuan tribe has arrived."

"The West Far Tribe?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Liming's expression changed.

What is the Xiyuan Tribe?

Let’s put it this way!

In the Western Regions, because of its vast land and abundant resources.

Not only did it give rise to countless large and small bandit forces, but it also gave rise to some large and small tribes.

It was fine when the Western Regions were not developed.

There is no conflict between the two sides.

But as the cities in the Western Regions developed one after another.

These primitive tribes in the Western Regions began to become jealous.

So every three days there was a small disturbance, and every five days there was a big disturbance.

Want to get a piece of the pie from the Western Region government.

Originally, in Zhao Liming's plan, these tribes were to be included as part of the development of the Western Regions.

Who would have thought that these primitive tribes would never obey orders and would even often do small things behind the scenes.

In other words, they only want benefits and are unwilling to do the work.

As a result, the two sides were engaged in protracted negotiations.

But who knew, they came again today.

"What did they say?"

Zhao Limin asked, changing the subject.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to use tough measures to deal with these tribes.

But...these tribes are too mobile.

Once you send out troops to encircle and suppress.

They ran abroad.

They even harass you from time to time.

Therefore, Zhao Liming had no way to deal with these tribes.
