Today's unexpected gossip made Xiao Zheng fascinated. He regretted that he was born 20 years later and didn't catch up to that good time.
First love?
Looking at his mother-in-law's reaction, Lu Dashan's lines might be a little exaggerated. But there was definitely some honesty and reliability. It wasn't pure fiction.
In that case, the competition between the love rivals back then was intense and oppressive. For Lin Laoyao to be able to snatch his mother-in-law from so many talented young men, he was definitely a master seducer. A typical counterattack …
No wonder those who should and shouldn't take action wanted to suppress Lin Laoyao. Who wouldn't be angry at the hatred of stealing his wife? But Lin Laoyao could withstand it and reach his current height. It was really admirable.
The conversation ended there. First, it was not convenient for Xiao Zheng to participate in the emotional entanglements of the older generation. Second, his mother-in-law didn't seem to be in the mood to discuss with Lu Dashan. Without a choice, Xiao Zheng got up to see her off.
"Ye-zi, it's rare for you to come back. I'll hold a banquet for you at home sometime? "Lu Dashan said with a smile.
"No need," Ye Yuhua said calmly.
Then, she got up and walked to the guest room. She was probably on her lunch break.
In Sijiu City, there weren't many people who were willing to refuse Lu Dashan's invitation. There were even fewer who dared to refuse. His mother-in-law naturally refused, and Lu Dashan gladly accepted. He didn't dare to be rash.
After sending Lu Dashan out of the house, he grabbed Xiao Zheng and spun him around the neighborhood. He even took out a pack of cigarettes from Xiao Zheng's pocket and slowly lit one.
"Xiao Zheng, you must be blaming me, right?" Lu Dashan puffed out a mouthful of smoke and asked meaningfully.
"Not really." Xiao Zheng shook his head and said calmly.
Lu Dashan heard that and showed a hint of surprise. "This is a big deal. If you don't handle it well, you might fall. "
"I didn't stumble, did I?" Xiao Zheng said with a smile.
Lu Dashan let out a relieved smile as he shook his head and said, "You're really something. You can even withstand Secretary Song's pressure. Looks like no one will be able to stop you soon. "
Xiao Zheng cast a sidelong glance at Lu Dashan. "It's not as strange as you say. Moreover, it took me a lot of effort to escape this time. You must return it to me some other day. "
"Haha. You really don't want to take any losses. "Lu Dashan shook his head and laughed. "Don't worry. Uncle Lu would remember this debt. I'll return it to you sooner or later. "
After a pause, Lu Dashan glanced at Xiao Zheng and said, "Don't you want to know why I used you to disgust Secretary Song?"
"Because Secretary Song and Minister Jin are political enemies?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"That's just one aspect. Lu Dashan shook his head and explained. "Old Jin is making a move this time. He's basically going to be promoted. But after that, he will be on the same level as Secretary Song. State Councilor. "
Xiao Zheng gently nodded and said, "Then their political careers will more or less come to an end."
The concept of State Councilor was proposed by the chief designer. The reason was that there were too many vice premiers. They all had a chance to compete for the premier position. As a result, the competition was too fierce and messy, which reduced work efficiency. This was what all the top leaders didn't want to see. Therefore, the State Councilor was introduced to be in charge of the ministries and commissions of the State Council.
Generally speaking, the State Councilor was an experienced veteran. They had the characteristics of being able to work and being able to shoulder heavy responsibilities. From another perspective, once they reached this step, their political career would basically come to an end. It was unlikely that they would be able to make further progress.
The State Councilor itself was at the same level as the Politburo members. But the former was a government position, while the latter was a party position. There was an unspeakable gap. Moreover, the appearance of the State Councilor itself was a bit suspicious of the old comrades who were capable but unable to make progress.
On the other hand, Secretary Song. Although he entered the Politburo and was even the Yanjing Municipal Party Secretary. But his political future was not much better than Minister Jin's. Even because of age, he would retire a few years earlier than Minister Jin.
The four major municipalities of Hua Xia. Many of the party and the country's top leaders had the experience of gilding the pearl. As far as Xiao Zheng knew, there were two.
And the Politburo members who served as the top leaders in other municipalities also had a strong ability to break the rules. Only the top leaders in Yanjing, judging from the past few terms, had basically formed a tradition of retiring after their term.
As for the reason. To put it superficially, once the top leader in Yanjing became a big leader. Who would be able to control Sijiu City? In a sense, Sijiu City became the private territory of this big leader.
It was too dangerous. There were too many uncontrollable factors. No big boss dared to make such a decision. The nature of playing with fire was too serious. If it was not handled properly, there would be big problems.
Lu Dashan glanced at Xiao Zheng and said with a smile, "Xiao Zheng, you know quite a lot."
Xiao Zheng shrugged and said, "That's because I was influenced by you guys. I used to be an innocent child. "
"F * ck off." Lu Dashan laughed. "You think you're innocent? I think those old foxes are no match for you. "
Xiao Zheng smiled and didn't refute. He just changed the topic and asked in confusion, "Uncle Lu. Secretary Song and Lin Chaotian — "
Lu Dashan nodded slightly and didn't let Xiao Zheng continue such a sensitive topic. He pursed his lips and said, "In the end, the big bosses have to stand in line. As businessmen, we also have to stand in line. "
Xiao Zheng had a deep understanding of this.
By now, he already had the labels of Minister Jin, Minister Gong, and even the two rear ministries on his forehead. In the eyes of some people, his relationship with Old Master Yang was even more likely to go further. And this time, who could guarantee that he wouldn't be labeled as a big leader when he wrestled with Secretary Song?
One had to know that the big leader who drove Secretary Song away by phone supported him last night. How could he be so insensible?
This was all about standing in line. Be it active or passive. As long as there were no major accidents, he would basically have to go all the way.
"Secretary Song's group didn't get any benefits this time. Old Jin had picked up a big bargain. Otherwise, with his qualifications, it was very likely that he would have to wait another four years. After all, he has the age advantage, and the organization has a reason to make way for his older comrades. "Lu Dashan smiled. "It seems that Old Jin's background is still very strong. Am I right? "
Xiao Zheng nodded. He agreed.
He didn't know much about this area. Especially the higher-ups, he knew very little. It was not convenient for him to express his opinion right now. Lu Dashan, however, started to talk. He squinted and said, "This time, I used your hand to beat up Secretary Song. It actually didn't have much impact on Secretary Song. After all, at these people's positions. Our power is very limited. At most, we can borrow power, but we can't create it. That's the power of a big leader. "
"But. Xiao Zheng. This time, we joined forces and made Lin Laoyao lose face, "Lu Dashan said with a smile. "Although he is just a bystander. He has a close relationship with Secretary Song. "
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he sighed in his heart. How powerful is this Lin Laoyao? Uncle Lu only got a small advantage from him, and he is already a little complacent.
The battle with his father-in-law was really a long way to go, and the road ahead was full of thorns.
