Chapter 128: Struggle for Ideals
Brothers, can you support it as always next week?
————————————————[.]
In fact, not all illusory things like official power are false. After being an official for a long time, it will naturally form a unique superior momentum. This momentum is what we call official power. The greater the official power, the stronger the majesty. Not to mention a rank-level official like Zheng Wenzhi, even the power of the county party secretary is not something that ordinary people can compete with.
If someone else was in Su Mu's position, he might have been scared to death. However, Su Mu was Su Mu, and he could still be calm and resentful when facing such an official power.
Your Zheng Wenzhi's official power is strong enough, but it has nothing to do with me. If I am afraid of you, I will not be able to climb your door today.
No matter how powerful you are, if it is your turn to be powerful, you are still far from Shang Ting. When Shang Ting ran away, Su Mu didn't do anything, let alone now.
All the uneasiness and worries disappeared with the arrival of this power. Su Mu himself didn't know why he could still be calm and calm in the face of such an official power.
"Be good, Su Mu is even better than me, and he can stand still." Zheng Mu said in his heart. Even though he has a personality, Zheng Mu will still be unable to remain calm if he really meets Zheng Wenzhi and gets angry. There are several times when his body is trying hard to keep calm, but still trembles. Not as calm as Su Mu.
You should know how many department-level cadres have been frightened by Zheng Wenzhi's aura. Su Mu is just a small town party secretary. It is incredible to be able to maintain such calmness.
"Old Zheng, why are you doing that? My son finally had a friend coming to the house. What kind of majesty are you showing off? Come on, you are Su Mu, right? Come and have a stay with the aunt for a while."
At this moment, a crisp sound rang out, and a woman walked out of the kitchen. Although she was already middle-aged, her dressing revealed a very fashionable and elegant atmosphere. Especially the face, it did not look like a yellow-faced woman as imagined, but it exuded a noble atmosphere that made people look up to.
Standing with Zheng Doudou, no one would say that a woman is a few years older than Zheng Doudou. At best, she would only think she was a slightly older sister. She was Zheng Wenzhi's wife, Zheng Mu and Zheng Doudou's mother, Yan Qingzhi.
"Auntie, I'm disturbing you. These are some New Year's goods I brought from my family, and I don't respect you. Don't refuse. Zheng Mu and I are brothers, so this is definitely not a bribery." Su Mu smiled and handed out the things he brought.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!" Zheng Mu hurried over to help.
The serious atmosphere that Zheng Wenzhi had just formed was easily broken as the mother and son joked. And the moment Su Mu and Yan Qingzhi touched their fingers, the official list instinctively began to rotate.
Name: Yan Qingzhi
Position: Deputy Director of the Department of Culture of Jiangnan Province
Like: Classical Music
Intimacy: forty!
As the wife of the secretary of the provincial party committee, Yan Qingzhi did not hold any important positions, but was just the deputy director of the Department of Culture. But even so, no one in the entire Department of Culture dared to ignore Yan Qingzhi. Putting aside all his identities, just because she is Zheng Wenzhi's wife, this is enough for Yan Qingzhi to become an unwilling woman.
"It's really a bit puzzling. It seems that I have to find a way to inject more energy into the official list in the near future. In this way, the official list will continue to show new functions. If it can really reveal the other party's family background when they meet for the first time, it will be of great benefit to me." Su Mu said in his heart.
"Secretary Zheng, this is our own bamboo shoot tea produced in Heishan Town. I specially selected a few boxes of high-quality ones and you can try it." Su Mu walked forward with a smile.
"Shangjian Tea, I heard that this is the main brand of your Heishan Town. Why? Do you want to bribe me and ask me to advertise for you for free?" Zheng Wenzhi said calmly.
Su Mu's thoughts were almost penetrated by a glance in the eyes of people at Zheng Wenzhi. Su Mu simply didn't mean to distinguish them, and said calmly: "Secretary Zheng, you are right. If you taste it and think it's good, it's really a big help. You must know that this bamboo shoot tea is related to whether the old revolutionary area like Heishan Town can get rid of poverty and become rich."
"You kid, you can climb along the way." Zheng Wenzhi smiled for the first time on his tense face, "If I don't drink, wouldn't I just support the work in the old revolutionary base?"
"That's not, it's just that drinking it is better than not drinking it. Besides, bamboo shoot tea is really good, with many other effects. You can tell it by trying it." Su Mu smiled.
The situation just now was opened up with Su Mu's words. Zheng Wenzhi did not think about continuing to make things difficult for Su Mu at this time. Just as Yan Qingzhi said, Zheng Mu had few friends at home. Now that he led Su Mu to the door, Zheng Wenzhi really had no reason to push him out again.
"Zheng Mu, stay with your mother to cook. Doudou, help make a pot of tea, and then make bamboo shoot tea to the study. Su Mu, come with me, I have something to ask you." Zheng Wenzhi stood up and said.
"Brother, be at ease." Zheng Mu leaned forward and whispered.
"I understand!" Su Mu said with a smile. He passed the first meeting with Zheng Wenzhi, but the next conversation is really related to the future.
Su Mu did not intend to miss this opportunity. He wanted to do this when Zheng Wenzhi was the provincial party secretary, and he wanted to do this even more when Zheng Wenzhi was the father of Zheng Mu. Su Mu did not want to watch Zheng Mu fall into trouble like that and was forced to do things he didn't like. Since he had come in, he would help him.
Zheng Mu watched the figures of the two disappeared in front of him, hurriedly grabbed Zheng Doudou and said, "Doudou, you must seize the opportunity of delivering tea. Don't be too late, and wait until the two really fall into a deadlock before entering. Remember, don't let your father bully Su Mu."
"Why are you so scared to pull Su Mu in!" Zheng Doudou said this and went to make tea on his own.
"You are neither big nor small, I..."
"What are you?" Yan Qingzhi showed his head from the kitchen, and knocked Zheng Mu's head with a stick of celery, and said angrily: "I won't come in and help me."
"Mom, mom, what do you think dad will do?" Zheng Mu said hurriedly.
"I don't know what to do, it depends on what Su Mu will do. Don't worry about so many things. You know, if your father keeps Su Mu for a meal, everything will be fine, otherwise, it will be hanging." Yan Qingzhi smiled.
"Don't hang, don't hang. If Su Mu really has something to do, the girl from the Ye family will eat me." Zheng Mu said hurriedly.
"Miss from the Ye family?" Yan Qingzhi frowned and said, "What's going on?"
"This is a long story!"
"Then come in and talk to me slowly!"
"Uh...Okay...After my mother's order..."
The study room is located on the second floor. It is a very simple and decorated room. The walls around it are all bookshelves, and books are placed on each bookshelves. There are very few modern books, most of which are classical literary versions. For example, "Zizhi Tongjian" or "History of Ming Dynasty". Zheng Wenzhi did not have any decorations, he really read them all.
Zheng Wenzhi, who loved reading since childhood, left reading notes every time he reads. Over the years, he has accumulated so many books so far.
"Do you like reading?" Zheng Wenzhi asked after sitting down.
"I like it!" Su Mu said calmly: "But when I was a child, my family was poor, so I didn't have the chance to read too many books. Many of them were borrowed from classmates or from school libraries after I went to school."
Su Mu hides a fact here, that is, when he was a child, he did not read too many books, but he learned a lot of ancient essays and poems. Because Shangting was like a private school teacher, he instilled a lot of them in his current achievements. Being able to achieve his current achievements has an important relationship with being guided by Shangting at the time.
"Since you like it, you should have heard a saying: Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. You don't like doing business, but you let Su Mu go and do it. Do you think this is done right?" Zheng Wenzhi suddenly changed his tone.
Here I am here, I am actually waiting here!
"Secretary Zheng, before I came, Zheng Mu had already told me the reason for letting me come. I really didn't expect to meet you with such a thing. From the public, you are my leader, and I should respect you. From the private perspective, you are my brother's father, and I should respect you even more. But I have something to say about Zheng Mu's future, the path he wants to take.
That's right, don't do to others what you don't want, but I have never thought about interfering with whom's future and determining whose future. If a person has no power to realize his dream, then he will fail to live in this world. I want to do something for the people and realize his ambitions, so I chose to go into politics.
Zheng Mu didn't like to go into politics at all. His ideal is to make money, turn money into symbols, and enjoy the pleasure of controlling money. So Zheng Mu chose to go business, and I admire him very much. Xunzi said, "If you persevere, you will never break the rotten wood; if you persevere, you can carve gold and stone." Secretary Zheng, what's wrong with Zheng Mu's struggle for what he wants to do.
Besides, who said that Zheng Mu chose the path that he chose was not the right one? Every cent of the money he earned was clean. I believe you should also know that according to Zheng Mu's identity, he had more ways to make money in China. With a little hint and use his connections, he could make a lot of money. However, Zheng Mu did not do that. Except for the initial capital, the rest of the money he earned was made from foreign markets.
I earn money from foreigners. I never think it is embarrassing to use this money to do something practical for the people of our Celestial Empire. Secretary Zheng said so much just to express his attitude, and there is no other meaning. If there is something offensive in his words, please don’t be as good as me.” Su Mu said calmly.
These words were the original intention of Su Mu and Zheng Mu's intercourse, and were also one of Su Mu's principles of being a human being. It was normal to say them all.
As for what Zheng Wenzhi thought after he finished speaking, Su Mu had no way to control it. All he could do now was wait and wait for Zheng Wenzhi to express his attitude.
Whether it is life or death, it’s just a single blow!
