Chapter 638 Big House
As he spoke, he patted Zhou Tian on the shoulder and continued, "No one is perfect. Although you lack political experience, I can still stay in this position for a few years. With people like us protecting you, it should be enough for you to grow!"
Zhou Tian's blood immediately boiled at Liu Weimin's words. Who hasn't dreamed of owning the country and having beauties on both sides? But then he calmed down again. Perhaps in the eyes of many people above, he was indeed a young talent with a unique vision and nationalism.
But the problem is that he knows his own limitations and is unable to shoulder such a heavy responsibility.
After pondering for a long time, Zhou Tian shook his head and said, "Secretary Liu, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I am really not cut out for this. I am only good at research, not politics. Besides, there are so many talented people in the country, and any one of them is no better than me. I think I should withdraw from this matter!"
Zhou Tian's words stunned Liu Weimin. He had never thought that there were people in this world who did not love power. However, looking at Zhou Tian's sincere eyes, he couldn't help but shook his head in his heart.
He somewhat doubted whether he had chosen the wrong person in the first place, but now that things had come to this, he could only use Zhou Tian's young age as an excuse.
"Forget it. Since you don't like the career path, I won't force you. But since you have been appointed as the third in command of SX, I hope you can do a good job. How about that?"
Liu Weimin thought about it and decided to lure him onto this road first and see what happens. If Zhou Tian really didn't have the intention or ability to do so, he would have no choice but to give up.
"Please rest assured, Secretary Liu. This is my responsibility, and I will do my best!"
Zhou Tian did not refuse this. Since his superiors had appointed him to this position, he would definitely do his best.
"Okay, wait for the Secretary General to come over and we'll arrange for you to stay. The government will also provide you with a special car. I don't think the government will need to provide you with a driver and guards, right?"
Liu Weimin looked at Zhou Tian and couldn't help but envy him. You know, even as the head of the government, he was not qualified to have a personal bodyguard. But this young man Zhou Tian actually had one at such a young age. How could he not be envious?
"Well, no thanks, Secretary!"
Zhou Tian quickly shook his head. For a young man in his twenties, having guards was already beyond the standard. If the government gave him more guards, it would be more than just a matter of envy.
As the two were talking, a middle-aged man in his forties walked in. When he saw Zhou Tian, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then a hint of realization flashed in his eyes.
"Secretary Liu, you're looking for me?"
"Well, Lao Yue, you're here. It's just right. Let me introduce you. This is Comrade Zhou Tian who was sent down from above. Starting tomorrow, Comrade Zhou Tian will be the third in command of our SX!"
Seeing the Secretary-General come in, Liu Weimin immediately introduced him to him.
"Hello, Comrade Zhou Tian. I am Yue Qishan."
Yue Qishan immediately stepped forward and shook hands with Zhou Tian enthusiastically.
"Secretary Yue, you're too polite. I'm Zhou Tian!"
Zhou Tian also looked at him with a smile and stood up.
"Okay, you two don't have to be so polite. It just so happens that you are here too. Comrade Zhou Tian's residence has a special car. You can take Comrade Zhou Tian to handle it!"
Liu Weimin couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the two of them.
"Okay, Secretary Liu!"
"Okay, Secretary Liu!"
The two of them responded immediately, and Yue Qishan took Zhou Tian out of the office.
Liu Weimin looked at the two people's backs as they walked away, and his face darkened slightly. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to ask Zhou Tian to come this time. In fact, the reason why he asked him to come from above was because he saw the development speed of the suburbs of Changping.
The reason why Zhou Tian was chosen as the successor candidate by his superiors was actually because of this reason. However, it seems that he is not very interested in entering the official career now.
"I hope Comrade Zhou Tian can replicate the development of Changping suburbs in SX, even if it's only two-tenths of Changping suburbs!"
He couldn't help but feel a hint of anticipation in his heart. He stood up and walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and dialed the number on it.
When the leader's voice came from the other side, Liu Weimin told Zhou Tian everything about his conversation today with a respectful look. Finally, he concluded: "Leader, it seems that Comrade Zhou Tian has no desire for power at all. If so, Comrade Zhou Tian will probably be very passive!"
"I know about this, but we still have to see how he performs. Sometimes, it's not enough to just pursue power. Besides, the top leaders value him very much. As long as he can promote the economic development of SX, then, I'm afraid he won't be able to do anything about it!"
"Okay, boss, I got it, I'll keep an eye on him!"
"Well, I'll leave this matter to you, Lao Liu. Time waits for no one. We have already made a mistake once, and we can't make it again this time. After all, the people of China can't afford us to make another mistake!"
"Yes, leader!"
After Liu Weimin hung up the phone, his expression did not change for a long time, and then he sighed firmly.
"Hey, you are the one who carries the hopes of the entire nation, Comrade Zhou Tian. I'm sorry!"
After saying that, he made several phone calls in succession, then lay back in the chair and took a deep breath.
"Comrade Zhou Tian, this place should meet your requirements. If you are still not satisfied with it, then I can do nothing about it!"
Yue Qishan brought Zhou Tian and others to a house and said helplessly.
Originally, he thought that arranging a residence for Zhou Tian was a simple matter, but who would have thought that Zhou Tian's request would be so weird. He didn't want to live in the building he had, but instead wanted to live in a separate house. You know, this is the building that many people dream of. Even he was only allocated a building of more than 100 square meters last year.
Zhou Tian ignored Yue Qishan's complaints and looked at the large mansion in front of him that was built in imitation of a courtyard house. He had traveled to Shanxi in his previous life, so he naturally knew that the Shanxi mansion would also be a scenic spot in later lives.
He really didn't want to live in a building, so he proposed a residential compound. He had just mentioned it casually, but Yue Qishan took him to see quite a few large mansions. Unfortunately, these mansions were either too big or too small. He naturally would not live in a mansion that was too big. After all, there were only four of them. If they lived in such a big house, wouldn't it just attract other people's attention?
On the contrary, the house in front of him was more in line with his ideas.
It doesn't look like it covers a large area. The two stone lions at the door look very majestic and powerful. The surrounding walls are built with blue bricks and appear to be more than three meters high. In terms of protecting personal privacy, it is no worse than a courtyard house!
