Chapter 294: Can't Let Zhou Ruohan Keep Pressing Down

Su Yang felt a warmth in his heart. He is truly an old leader, always thinking of him.

He said with a thick skin, "Secretary Liu, of course I also want to move. Just like what Old Master Liu said, to serve more people, one must move to a higher position. Otherwise, it's hypocrisy."

"Objectively speaking, who in the system doesn't want to move up? And a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier."

"But you also know that my town mayor position was also rapidly promoted by you. Where else can I go? Any higher would be a violation of organizational principles."

"I have only been a town mayor for a full month."

Liu Zhengyang chuckled, "In the system, many things that are not allowed in principle have rules to follow. As long as you are willing, you can come to an enterprise. After going to an enterprise, you can be promoted, and it will be justified, and no one will deliberately pay attention to your resume."

"After transitioning in an enterprise for a few years, and then returning to local governance, your rank and position will naturally go up."

"I think this is more in line with the expectations of Old Master Qiao and Vice Governor Zhou for you. Don't look at them not saying it, but they also hope you can grow quickly."

"Otherwise, always being pressed down by Ruohan is not a thing. You are a big man after all, you have to regain some of your dignity, right?"

"And you can rest assured that neither Old Master Qiao nor Vice Governor Zhou will have any objections to this matter. On the contrary, if you are really willing to enter an enterprise, they will even help you."

Su Yang's heart jumped violently. Originally, in his view, being a town mayor at twenty-five was already a fire in the ancestral grave, but thinking about Zhou Ruohan being a county mayor at the same age, it really is people comparing to people, goods comparing to goods.

If there were this springboard of an enterprise, he could further narrow the gap with Zhou Ruohan.

In time, he would be able to turn the tables and press Zhou Ruohan down. Thinking about it this way, it's actually quite cool.

But the sense of responsibility and mission in his bones told him that he could not take such a shortcut.

He said very seriously and sincerely, "Thank you, Secretary Liu. Your kindness really makes me yearn for it, and I wish I could follow you now."

"But the work in Huatian Town has not been finished. You also know how poor our remote villages are. Since I am the town mayor there, and since I have already started the work of poverty alleviation and becoming rich, I must finish the work at hand and must lead them to completely get rid of poverty."

"This is more meaningful than me gilding myself and making money quickly."

"Of course, this is not to say that I don't like moving up. I am also very eager, but it is still the same sentence I said to Old Master Liu before: I ultimately like to take root among the people, do the work of the people solidly, and then consider my personal affairs."

These words of his were sonorous and powerful, making everyone present look at him with a bit more respect.

Generally speaking, no one can resist this temptation.

Some people even spend money to run connections and sharpen their heads just to take this shortcut.

Old Master Liu laughed and said, "You kid is really extraordinary. You can be square and round, can withstand tests, can withstand pressure, and have ambitions. This is the excellent reserve talent our Party organization needs."

"Just follow your own ideas and do it down-to-earth. If you encounter any problems, you can directly find me."

"Whether it is in resources or politics, as long as I, this old man, am still here, I will help you."

"Of course, these things are only based on my personal feelings for you, and have nothing to do with anything else."

Su Yang knew what Old Master Liu's subtext was—that it didn't involve the grudges between families. As for whether these two families had any grudges, he really couldn't say clearly.

Moreover, Zhou Ruohan didn't tell him, and Liu Zhengyang didn't mention it either, so he naturally couldn't ask.

With such a promise from Old Master Liu, he was naturally overjoyed and said immediately, "Thank you, Old Master. With your words, I will have more motivation when I go back."

Old Master Liu laughed and said, "You kid, don't just talk and not do things. I will be watching you."

"Alright, everyone, hurry up and eat. Don't just talk."

As his words fell, a table of food was brought up. Besides the four people in the room, the other person at the table was Liu Zixuan.

The meal was relatively simple, consisting of four dishes and one soup.

However, the portions were relatively large, enough even for the five of them. Of course, Old Master Liu ate very little, basically only eating half a bowl of rice and a few bites of vegetables.

Liu Zixuan didn't even touch the rice, just eating a little bit of vegetables.

Su Yang didn't stand on ceremony. At his age, he was just at the time when he could eat. He didn't treat himself as an outsider and finished three bowls of rice, making Liu Zixuan roll her eyes.

After the meal, Su Yang checked the time and it was already 6 o'clock. Old Master Liu and Fang Runan went to the study, so Su Yang said to Liu Zhengyang, "Secretary Liu, the time is almost up, so I won't disturb you anymore."

Liu Zhengyang thought about it and it was true. What should have been chatted about today was chatted about, and what should have been said was said. He said to Liu Zixuan, "Zixuan, let the driver take Su Yang back. I still have things to do."

"Su Yang, if you encounter any difficulties in your future work, call me. Although I am no longer in Ganzhou, I can still help you with some things."

Hearing that Su Yang was leaving, Liu Zixuan immediately said with a smile, "Second Uncle, no need for the driver. I'll take Su Yang. He came to our house as a guest, and in the end, you let the driver take him—what kind of thing is that?"

Liu Zhengyang thought it was also true, "Alright then, you take Su Yang. But I tell you, don't stir up any trouble, otherwise be careful of your grandfather lecturing you."

Liu Zixuan walked up and promised seriously, "Second Uncle, don't worry. What can I do to him? Besides, he is a big man, can I, a weak woman, eat him or traffic him?"

"If anything really happens, it will be Su Yang bullying me."

Hearing this, Su Yang felt a bit uneasy in his heart. This Liu Zixuan looked eccentric and definitely didn't have any good ideas.

He originally wanted to decline, but Liu Zixuan pulled him and walked out, and he couldn't break free. This made him look stingy.

After the two came out of the courtyard, Liu Zixuan opened the blue BMW parked at the door and got in, "Where are you going?"

Su Yang said, "I'll go to the Qiao family's place."

Actually, he didn't know where to go, but he thought about leaving here first, and then find a place to open a room and stay for the night.

Or wait for Zhou Weiguo's call. He didn't know when his flight back tomorrow was yet.

But after he got in the car, he found that Liu Zixuan didn't drive in the direction he said at all, but drove in another direction.

Seeing this, Su Yang said, "The direction seems wrong, right? The direction to the Qiao family should be on the other side. Where are you going?"

Liu Zixuan's mouth slightly raised, revealing two small tiger teeth, "I just asked you where you were going, but I didn't say I was going to take you there."

"Can't you understand people's words? With your comprehension ability, how can you be a town mayor?"

As soon as Su Yang heard it, he knew that Liu Zixuan was going to make trouble. He immediately said, "Then stop the car, I'll take a taxi back myself. It's not far anyway, so I won't trouble you."

Liu Zixuan chuckled and said with a triumphant face, "What are you thinking? Once you get in my car, it's not up to you."

"There are so many people in Sijiucheng who want to get in my car, but they don't have the chance. You are the first one. I tell you, don't be ungrateful."

"I have already told my friends in the circle to let them see what kind of person Zhou Ruohan's man is. They are all looking forward to it."

"Don't you want to give this face?"

As she said this, she stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped out directly. ===== CHAPTER 295 =====
