Officialdom: From village head to provincial party secretary

But what if we release this restraint?

How to change this thinking?

As long as they can make money, why not let them do it?

So what happens.

Yes, it’s positivity.

Is the biggest difference between other counties and Tu County really because of Zhao Liming?

Wrong, it’s positivity.

They are the cat that can't catch the mouse.

Tuxian is just the cat that can catch mice at any time.

Hence, this contrast was born.

"Okay, well said, well said, hahahaha..."

The old man finally reacted, clapped his hands vigorously, and couldn't help laughing.

Especially, what Zhao Liming said.

Even a local county can be like this.

What if... we open up to the outside world and reach into the pockets of foreigners?

So what happens?

Yes, it is to make the entire country thoroughly prosperous.

Even make them dependent on themselves and let their money flow into their pockets.

Instead of allowing the country's food and scarce minerals to be bought up by foreigners at low prices.

However, they buy things that have been eliminated by foreigners at high prices.

This creates an unequal trade.

"Thank you for your praise, old man. Compared with my master, Limin's knowledge is really insignificant."

Zhao Liming knew that the opportunity had come.

So, without blushing, he shook his head modestly.

"Oh? You have a teacher. Can you tell me who your teacher is?"

The old man suddenly became interested.

Be able to teach such students.

One can imagine how outstanding his teacher's abilities are.

"Tang Dongliang."

Zhao Liming directly said a name.

"..."

When this name came out, the old man was stunned.

Who is Tang Dongliang?

The soldiers he brought up.

What abilities does Tang Dongliang have?

Wouldn't he know?

He can teach this kind of students.

So... why did this young man in front of me say that?

Very simple.

Repay the favor.

Because...Tu County’s fish farming plan was promoted by Tang Dongliang.

"Hahahaha!"

Finally, the old man laughed again.

Moreover, he began to re-position the young man in front of him.

“You have a very good teacher.”

The old man looked at Zhao Liming and said with a smile.

Regardless of ability.

It's still character.

Even...as a person, in the eyes of peers.

Definitely in the top three.

More importantly, he is very low-key.

If it were someone else, he would have flown into the sky long ago.

"Thank you for the compliment, old man."

Zhao Liming never called the other party "national elder".

It was as if he didn't know his identity.

This is also the real brilliance.

"You have two choices. The first is to come back to Beijing with me and help me with the reform. After two or three years of development, we will promote the reform nationwide."

"Second, continue to stay in Tu County and make achievements before this year's National People's Congress. Convince those conservatives."

"What about you? What do you think?"

The old man looked at Zhao Liming and asked with a smile.

"I choose the second one."

Zhao Liming answered straightforwardly.

"What's the reason?"

The old man was very curious.

You know, go back to Beijing with him.

At least they all start at the deputy department level.

After a few years of experience, it is very likely that I will take over his job.

But what about him?

You actually choose to stay?

You know, if you stay, you may never reach that height in your lifetime.

"Time waits for no one..."

Zhao Liming said with certainty.

If we wait two or three years to implement it.

Then... there will be no afterlife.

Because he knew better how much effort the old man in front of him had to put in to promote reform and opening up.

"..."

The old man was stunned again.

He actually saw his younger self in the eyes of the young man in front of him.

That kind of unbreakable will.

"You know, if you choose the second option, I can't provide you with any help. In fact... you will be surrounded by enemies and endure pressure several times, or even dozens of times greater than the current pressure. Do you understand what I mean?"

The elder was very serious.

He really wanted to bring this young man under his wing to study for a few years.

It will be easier to carry the banner in the future.

After all, there are not many people who share the same aspirations as him.

But he chose to stay.

What is the cost of staying?

Yes, the conservatives are suppressing it at all costs.

You may even encounter various dangers.

"Of course! But Limin knows better what the people in the country need now. So, I need to prove it even more."

Zhao Liming naturally knew what the old man meant.

But he knew better what it would mean if he followed the old man to the capital.

You know, it was we who proposed reform and opening up.

He even wrote a very detailed manuscript.

More importantly, Tuxian’s achievements were also noticed by the national elders.

So what will he do next?

Yes, implement it at all costs.

But what about those people above?

Will definitely oppose at all costs.

At this time, once I went to the capital.

Will become a complete sinner.

Because... Zhao Liming knows it very well.

In order to implement the reform, a major bloody incident will occur in the capital.

Therefore, he must not go to the capital.

"..."

The old man looked at Zhao Liming for a long time.

For a moment, I was shocked by Zhao Liming's courage.

"Good, good boy, good boy!"

The old man suddenly patted Zhao Liming on the shoulder a few times.

Then he sighed sadly.

Sure enough, he saw the right person.

It really was not a wasted trip.

"I can only guarantee that the Guo family will not cause you any more trouble in the future, but I cannot guarantee that other people will not attack you."

The old man glanced into the distance, as if he felt that he had met Zhao Liming too late.

"enough."

Zhao Liming nodded.

indeed.

Just these words are enough.

As long as the Guo family doesn't cause trouble for me anymore.

As for other crises.

He can handle it all.

"Then take care of yourself! Half a year, you still have half a year, come up with some great results before the National People's Congress, otherwise, all this will be a joke. Even... you and I will be kicked out, do you understand what I mean?"

The elder looked at Zhao Liming seriously again.

"understand!"

Zhao Liming understands how difficult this road is.

But does he have a choice?

No choice.

This plan was originally proposed.

It's purely for self-protection.

However, after proposing it, he realized that this was an extremely difficult road.

Once you retreat, it will be a long way to go.

The two walked around Qingliu Village.

The elders are very satisfied with Qingliu Village.

More satisfied with Zhao Liming.

The two also chatted a lot.

From ancient times to the present, from abroad to domestic.

We had a great time talking.

There is no age gap at all.

Instead, they are more like people of the same age.

This also made the national elders more convinced that Zhao Liming is a rare talent.

It was not until dark that the old man reluctantly left with his people.

"Limin, who is this old man?"

After being made such a fuss by Guo Aiyun, Yan Kuishan and Luo Guoqing.

Plus this atmosphere.

So, after the guests finished their meal, they went back early.

When Zhao Liming came back, only Chen Xiuzhen and Baoer were left at home.

"A respectable old man..."

Zhao Liming shook his head and smiled, saying simply.

"Okay, pack up and go back to the city tomorrow."

Zhao Liming changed the subject.

"Back to the city?"

Chen Xiuzhen was stunned.

"Limin, you mean..."

Chen Xiuzhen seemed to have thought of something?

Zhao Liming didn't say anything, just smiled.
