NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1201
Liu Zhizhong smiled faintly and said, "Isn't that obvious? He'll be leaving Shanan soon; being the County Mayor here isn't easy."
Hamuer thought for a moment and said, "Leaving so soon? That seems unlikely, doesn't it? I mean... this time, even Minister Luo personally escorted him down; do you know what that means?"
"Minister Luo is just repaying the biggest debt to the Zhang Family by sending Zhang Hongyang on his last journey. This guy has made quite a few blunders, and Minister Luo has cleaned up a lot of his messes. This time, if he can do his job well, stay steady, and avoid any problems, he might have a chance to be sent on another journey. If he doesn't do his job well and causes trouble, even Minister Luo won't be able to protect him."
"Oh..." Hamuer nodded in understanding, "But what if he really is incompetent and gets into trouble soon? The position of Shanan County Magistrate...?"
"I want to unusually recommend Director Ha, is that okay?"
"What?"
Hamuer was taken aback and quickly waved his hands, "Secretary Liu, this isn't okay, this isn't okay! Everyone says you're a County Mayor with no political aspirations, and I'm a County Party Secretary with no political ambitions!"
Liu Zhizhong couldn't help but laugh, "Such a lack of political ambition! Without ambition, how will you progress? Haha..."
Hamuer was originally a simple person with good political insight. He could recognize his own position, which was commendable.
At the moment, he smiled, adjusted his glasses, and said sincerely, "I just think, as a County Party Secretary, I'll serve Secretary Liu well. Working with you is very pleasant and meaningful. If I can follow you throughout my life, it would be my fortune."
What a sincere flattery it was; it truly moved Liu Zhizhong.
However, Liu Zhizhong said, "Director Ha, your thinking indeed shows a lack of political ambition! But you know, in officialdom, the County Party Secretary is just a nominal position. Ultimately, you have to move into substantive work, like becoming the Executive Vice County Mayor, then County Mayor, then Secretary, governing a region, and then see if you can advance to a deputy position in the city or state. You having no ambition and just following me isn't viable!"
"Not necessarily! Now, my children have plans and a path, and I'm quite free. Following a leader with real insights for a lifetime isn't impossible! As long as Secretary Liu doesn't mind, you become the County Party Secretary, I'll be the County Party Secretary; you become Mayor, I'll be the Director of the City Government Office; you become the Mayor, I'll be the Secretary of the Municipal Committee; if you become the Governor..."
As he spoke, Hamuer let out a sound and laughed, "If you become the Governor, oh, I'd be retired by then, haha..."
Liu Zhizhong also laughed heartily and said, "With those kind words, I'll remember them. Don't worry, I'll make sure you retire peacefully, hehe..."
"Thank you, Secretary Liu!"
"No need to be polite. After so long, don't I know you? And don't you understand me?"
"Yes, yes, of course, of course..."
In fact, conversations like this truly showcased Hamuer's political acumen.
He tied himself closely with Liu Zhizhong, a political future shared together.
You must admit, Hamuer had a keen eye for people. By following Liu Zhizhong, he eventually rose to the position of...
