Chapter Eighty-Seven: Zhu Zi Chuan Wants to Transfer Him

  Looking at Cao Dafu's darkened face, the two villagers were also frightened, but in the end, Cao Dafu didn't deal with them and waved his hand to let them go. After they left, he pointed at the village secretary's head and scolded him, scolding until the village secretary couldn't sit still, only stopping when he had vented his anger.

  After scolding, he just walked away with a huff, without mentioning the matter to anyone else. He didn't even mention it to Zhu Zi Chuan, let alone others. If others were to find out that Zhu Zi Chuan had paid protection money on his turf, it would spread like wildfire throughout the county. What would Zhu Zi Chuan think? Wouldn't he immediately be stripped of his position?!

  The next day, Cao Dafu personally went to the county committee to report on the rectification of this work. Thinking that Ye Pingyu still had some relationship with Zhu Zichuan, he took Ye Pingyu along to the county town.

  After arriving at the county town, Cao Dafu and Ye Pingyu came to the county committee office together, saying they wanted to see Zhuo Zichuan. Cui Xinhua saw him coming to see Zhuo Zichuan again, thinking that this kid was going to be heavily used, why did he come to see Zhuo Zichuan again.

  Go take a look, Zhu Zi's boat is currently in the office and has no meeting with customers, so he takes him and Ye Pingyu to walk in.

  As soon as Cao Dafu and Ye Pingyu arrived together, Zhu Zichuan knew what he meant. After seeing Ye Pingyu, he didn't show too much enthusiasm either, but just calmly let the two of them sit down to talk.

  Upon seeing the appearance of Zhuo Zi Chuan, Cao Da Fu immediately reported to him about the situation with the road tolls being collected at night. Zhuo Zi Chuan listened carefully and after hearing everything, he said: "I have been to your village before, Xiao Ye knows this. The village is not wealthy, so some people think of coming up with a bad idea to make some small money by collecting random fees. Although in the short term, they did collect some money and solved their funding problems, you must see the long-term effects. You are collecting fees from people who come to your village for economic activities. Only when there is economic activity can the economy develop. If you continue to do this, who will dare to go to your village? How can the economy develop? A poor man cannot be short-sighted, and one's vision cannot be shallow. What your village is doing not only violates national regulations but also a very foolish thing. I hope that from now on, this situation will not happen again. You can solve this problem overnight, and I affirm that, but it must not rebound!"

  The child's words were reasonable, showing his level as the county party secretary. Ye Pingyu listened to him and felt that he was right. The people in the countryside just had a narrow vision. Without a development environment, there would be no development. When outsiders came here with their vehicles, they would naturally generate consumption and market transactions, but instead of welcoming them, they were asked to pay tolls, and not just by one household. Wasn't this driving them away?

  When Cao Dafu heard Zhu Zi Chuan affirm his words, he felt relieved in his heart. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and went back to handle the matter. Otherwise, if it had been delayed for a few days, Zhu Zi Chuan might not have had this attitude.

  After the report, Cao Dafu stood up to leave, and Ye Pingyu was about to follow him back. However, Zhu Zichuan suddenly called out to him. Earlier, he had seen Ye Pingyu sitting quietly there, looking very stable, and after several interactions, he had gained an understanding of Ye Pingyu's abilities. He had the idea of transferring Ye Pingyu to his side as a secretary. Since arriving here, he still didn't have a secretary, and although Zhou Lei's classmate Wu Qisheng wanted to be his secretary, he hadn't taken a liking to him, lacking Ye Pingyu's calm demeanor. On the other hand, Wu Qisheng was hesitant about whether or not to work in the county below, after all, being at the municipal government level was a higher position, and it would take time to climb up. If he came down, his status would be lower, so he couldn't force Wu Qisheng to come down either.

  Now as soon as he saw Ye Pingyu, he had the idea of letting Ye Pingyu serve as his secretary. Seeing that the two were about to leave, he kept Ye Pingyu behind.

  Cao Dafu brought Ye Pingyu along, intending to use Ye's relationship with Zhu Zishen to make an impression on him. However, upon arrival, he felt that Zhu didn't seem to place much importance on Ye after all. After Zhu acknowledged his work, Cao didn't think much of it anymore. But now, seeing Zhu specially keeping Ye behind, his heart began to stir again, thinking that the relationship between Ye and Zhu was indeed very deep.

  Ye Pingyu didn't know what Zhuo Zishen had left him to do, but after Cao Dafu walked out, he looked at Zhuo Zishen. Zhuo Zishen then asked him to sit down, smiled and asked: "Little Ye, was the situation reported by Cao Dafu just now true?"

  As soon as he heard the question, Ye Pingyu thought that Zhu Zichuan was trying to verify the authenticity of Cao Dafu's report through him, so he thought for a moment and said: "Last night, I did rush to deal with it. He and I went down to the village together to take a look, and severely criticized several village cadres who were still charging randomly. In the past, the township had been too lenient in dealing with this matter. I wanted to report the truth to the county, but they didn't allow it, making a mess of everything. I'm worried that once this storm passes, it will reignite!"

  Ye Pingyu made a truthful report to Zhu Zichuan and put forward his own opinions. Zhu Zichuan nodded, feeling that Ye Pingyu's sense of responsibility was still relatively strong. The last time he bought rice also made him see Ye Pingyu's character, so thinking about it this way, he became even more determined to transfer him over to serve as his secretary.

  Zhu Zi Chuan Dao: "Xiao Ye, your idea is good. We have lost many things due to leniency. If they appear again in the future, I will definitely handle it seriously. Let's not mention this matter for now. I ask you, how is your work in the countryside going?"

  When Zhu Zi Chuan asked about this, Ye Ping Yu said: "It's okay, but I always feel that their ideas are different from mine. There are some things that I don't like, but there's no way to change them. They're all muddled affairs. You're good, I'm good, everyone's good. Words spoken can't be taken back, this makes me a bit worried!"

  Seeing Ye Pingyu speaking the truth, Zhu Zichuan couldn't help but laugh and say: "Xiao Ye, I can see that you usually have a lot of ideas. This is good. You're young, it's right to think about many things, and at the same time, you should also learn some principles from these things. When you have the ability to change them, then go ahead and change them. If you don't have the ability to change them, then work hard and do your own thing well."

  Zhu Zi Chuan's words made a lot of sense, and Ye Ping Yu nodded repeatedly in agreement. As the conversation reached this point, Zhu Zi Chuan directly said: "Little Ye, I have an idea now, and I'd like to ask for your opinion. What do you think if I transfer you to work at the county committee office?"

  Suddenly hearing this, Ye Pingyu stared blankly at Zhu Zishen and said: "Secretary Zhu, you want to transfer me to work in the county committee office?"

  Zhu Zi Chuan said: "Not bad, I'll transfer you over. How about becoming my secretary?"

  Ye Pingyu felt surprised and thought for a moment before saying: "Secretary Zhu, I've never worked in the county committee office, serving as your secretary, I'm afraid I won't be up to the task!"

  Zu Zi Chuan laughed and said, "How can you not be up to the task? You've been serving as the director of the party and government office in the countryside for some time now. Coming to the county is no different. I don't have a secretary yet, and since you're young, I was thinking of letting you take on the role. If you have no objections, come over!"

  Being the secretary of the county party committee is a good thing for him, Ye Pingyu was very happy in his heart, but he knew that being the secretary of Ren Ziyuan would also come with great responsibility, he had to appear more calm and not get too excited too early.

  "Comrade Secretary, if you think I'm up to the task, then I'll give it a try. If I'm not up to it, I'll go back to working in the countryside." Ye Pingyu replied calmly.

  "Impossible, you'll definitely be able to handle it. Since you've agreed, I'll give you two days to go back and prepare. I'll arrange for the Organization Department to issue a transfer order for you to come over first, and then we'll arrange your position later. Your current position as Director of the County Party Committee Office won't be removed immediately either. How about that?"

  He can still hold the position of Director of Cao Lingzi Township Party and Government Office, Zhu Zichuan's consideration is really too thorough, what else can he say, today's matter is indeed worth celebrating.

  Ye Pingyu left Zhao Zichuan's office after agreeing with him, and Cao Dafu was waiting downstairs. Seeing Ye return, he asked: "Xiao Ye, what did Secretary Zhao say to you again?"

  If it were something else, Ye Pingyu would not have told him, but since Zhu Zichuan was going to be transferred to the county committee office, Cao Dafu would find out sooner or later, so he said: "Secretary Zhu wants me to work in the county committee office."

  As soon as Cao Dafu heard this, he was also stunned for a moment, and then said: "This is good news, it seems that Secretary Zhu attaches great importance to you, as soon as you arrive, he transfers you to the county party committee office. What will you mainly do in the county party committee office?"

  Yè Píngyǔ said: "Maybe it's serving as his secretary, but I won't know the specifics until I get here."

  Cao Dafu was even more delighted when he heard the news, and as soon as Zhu Zishen arrived, he transferred Ye Pingyu to work as a secretary in the county committee office. This shows that Zhu Zishen's relationship with him is indeed not ordinary. Following Zhu Zishen around is definitely a good thing, much better than being stuck in the countryside.

  "Come on, Xiao Ye, let's celebrate! Let's go eat!" Cao Da Fu said excitedly, taking Ye Ping Yu to the restaurant.

  Seeing Cao Dafu's attitude, Ye Pingyu didn't have much to say either. Anyway, lunch had to be eaten, so let's go.

  Ye Pingyu and Cao Dafu went to the restaurant together for dinner. Driver Old Zhu heard that Ye Pingyu was going to work at the county committee office, and his expression towards Ye Pingyu became even more rich, although he was originally under Ye Pingyu's leadership, but now it was even more respectful.

  Watching Cao Dafu and Lao Zhu's changes, Ye Pingyu felt a sense of melancholy, but he wasn't overly excited either. He remained calm, knowing that working anywhere isn't easy. Although outsiders might think it looks glamorous, only the person themselves can understand the hardships involved. Others envy one's position, but only when the work is done well can one truly gain respect!
