The car slowly stopped under the office building of the Ministry of Agriculture. Yao Ze walked out of the car and looked at the red flag fluttering above his head. He felt an indescribable sense of pride in his heart. He thought, maybe one day he could also work in the most mysterious and powerful place in Yanjing.

Huang Wenxuan followed the car out of Yao Ze. Seeing Yao Ze looking up at the Hongqi, she couldn't help but smile and reminded her: "Mayor Yao, Minister Xu is still waiting, he has been muttering about you for a long time."

Yao Ze came back to his senses, smiled apologetically, and said, "I really don't want Minister Xu to talk to me. I'm afraid that the greater his expectations of me, the greater the disappointment he will eventually be."

Huang Wenxuan sighed softly and said, "Mayor Yao, if I were you, I would definitely choose to stay in Yanjing."

Yao Ze curled his lips and smiled, but did not respond, and walked towards the office hall with steps.

Under Huang Wenxuan's leadership, Yao Ze came outside Xu Zhuangyan's office on the fifth floor.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

Huang Wenxuan gently knocked on the door of Xu Zhuangyan's office.

Xu Zhuangyan's voice was full of energy from inside: "Please come in!"

Huang Wenxuan reached out and gently pushed open the door, smiling at Xu Zhuangyan, who was working with his head down, said: "Minister Xu, Mayor Yao is here."

Xu Zhuangyan then looked up and smiled at Yao Ze, then said to Huang Wenxuan: "There are some things that need to be handled in the Personnel Department, so you go and take a look."

Huang Wenxuan nodded, then smiled at Yao Ze. When she passed by, Huang Wenxuan whispered: "If Mayor Yao has no arrangements tonight, I will treat you to a meal."

Yao Ze was slightly stunned for a moment, not knowing what Huang Wenxuan meant, but seeing Huang Wenxuan looking at her seriously and answering, Yao Ze had to nod with a smile and said, "If it's okay, I will definitely go to the appointment."

Looking at Huang Wenxuan going out, Xu Zhuangyan stood up happily, then shook hands with Yao Ze cordially and asked Yao Ze to do it on the sofa. He personally poured a cup of tea for Yao Ze, then sat next to Yao Ze, and said with a smile: "There are so much troublesome all the way. Thank you for your hard work. I originally planned to arrange for you to stay in a hotel first, but a big man wants to see you later. He will have to go abroad tomorrow, so he can only arrange to meet at this point."

The big shot that Xu Zhuangyan said surprised Yao Ze, and she couldn't help but sweat and asked, "Minister Xu, who are you talking about? Don't scare me." Yao Ze and Xu Zhuangyan met several times. They came to Yanjing during the Chinese New Year and went to Xu Zhuangyan's house to pay New Year's greetings. Yao Ze thought Xu Zhuangyan was good to him, and he didn't have the airs to put it on the shelves, but he looked like a kind elder. Therefore, Yao Ze was less restrained when he first met Xu Zhuangyan, and he was not so dissatisfied with him.

When Xu Zhuangyan saw Yao Ze's fearful look, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "You have met Vice Premier He Anguo. I remember that the first time you met was in my office. The three of us really have a fate that cannot be solved."

When Yao Zechu came to Yanjing for a meeting, he met Vice Premier He under the arrangement of Xu Zhuangyan. However, Yao Ze was too nervous at that time and did not talk about anything with Vice Premier He Anguo.

It would be nice to have Yao Ze not scared to pee when he talked with the national leaders, let alone talk about things with a clear mind.

"Minister Xu, what are Premier He talking about this time?" Yao Ze sighed softly, still a little nervous.

Xu Zhuangyan smiled and pointed to the cup in front of Yao Ze and said, "Drinking tea, don't be nervous. I haven't seen it before. Why are you so reserved? Isn't the Prime Minister a human? Look at you're scared!"

"What can he talk about when he asks you? Is it a matter of agricultural reform? Premier He has always been very serious. He is also the first national leader to support this agricultural reform in the central government. Vice Premier He is very optimistic about you. If you perform well, your future will naturally be limitless. Young people, you must seize the time." Xu Zhuangyan smiled at Yao Ze, actually implying that Yao Ze is very necessary to transfer to the Ministry of Agriculture to work.

At least for now, Xu Zhuangyan hopes that Yao Ze will be transferred here.

Yao Ze picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea. He was sure that he was just talking to the Vice Premier, and there was nothing to be nervous about. He had even seen super big names like Nalan Chuyang and Lin Hongde. What else was there to be scary in front of Vice Premier He?

"Minister Xu, actually, I understand your intentions, but I really can't let go of Jiang Ping now. I have just been transferred to Jiang Ping as mayor for less than a year. Seeing that Jiang Ping is developing better and better under the leadership of our municipal party committee leadership team, I have to be transferred again before I can do much for Jiang Ping. I am really unwilling to accept it." Yao Ze sighed softly and continued: "And with my current qualifications, I am afraid I am not qualified to be transferred to such an important position in the Ministry of Agriculture."

After hearing Yao Ze's words, Xu Zhuangyan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Do you think qualifications are very important? The so-called qualifications are not all a matter of one sentence. As the mayor of Jiangping City, if you want to promote a town mayor to be the deputy county magistrate in the county, as long as you work hard, even if he is not qualified enough to be the deputy county magistrate, his qualifications become dispensable in the face of absolute power. Although I shouldn't say this to you, Yao Ze, this is the reality. If you don't have a strong backstage and strong connections, what's the use of even higher qualifications? For example, some civil servants who have been in the unit for a lifetime are still an ordinary clerk. Can you say that he is not qualified enough? No, he must have enough qualifications, but he is struggling hard in the agency..."

With Xu Zhuangyan's character, he rarely speaks this heart-to-heart. Since his son died on a mission a few years ago, Xu Zhuangyan has become more taciturn. Since seeing Yao Ze, the sense of fatherly love with him has slowly filled his heart. Seeing Yao Ze, Xu Zhuangyan seemed to see his sacrificed son Xu Junjie.

Therefore, he would not speak to Yao Ze like he did to the old man in the officialdom, and he would not speak to the real and false.

After hearing Xu Zhuangyan's words, Yao Ze lowered his head and fell silent. Xu Zhuangyan's words were right. If he compared his qualifications with background, qualifications were really nothing. Let's talk about himself. If he hadn't met Shen Jiangming and Tang Shunyi, he might have been a famous and unknown clerk in the agency. I don't know when he had been. Since he met Shen Jiangming's career, his career has become wider, and it can be said that he is even more stable. In terms of qualifications, at most he can be a town mayor or deputy county magistrate at his age.

Yao Ze silently took a sip of tea, looked up and saw Xu Zhuangyan staring at him, waiting for him to digest these ideas, Yao Ze couldn't help but smile and said, "Minister Xu, you are right, but I still hope to do it first in Jiangping. Jiangping, I have put in a lot of effort and have also planned a grand blueprint that can be implemented. It will definitely be realized in less than a few years. When that time, if the Ministry of Agriculture needs me, I will definitely come here."

Xu Zhuangyan was a little disappointed with Yao Ze's answer, but he didn't force Yao Ze too much. If Yao Ze had to come over, his superiors only needed to give orders, and Yao Ze had to obey. Xu Zhuangyan never liked to force others, so he nodded, took out a cigarette from his purse, handed it to Yao Ze and said, "So, everyone has their own ambitions. I won't force you. Wait until you figure it out."

As he spoke, he lit a cigarette and took a few sips silently. At this time, Xu Zhuangyan's secretary knocked on the door and walked in, and then said to Xu Zhuangyan softly: "Minister Xu, Vice Premier He is here and has arrived at the gate."

Xu Zhuangyan nodded, stuffed the cigarette into the ashtray, and actually said to Yao Ze: "Let's go down to pick up the Vice Premier together."

Yao Ze nodded quickly and followed Xu Zhuangyan downstairs.

He Anguo, who was dressed in a suit and tie, walked towards the office hall with several plainclothes guards and a secretary, and happened to meet Xu Zhuangyan and Yao Ze.

Xu Zhuangyan greeted He Anguo with a smile, shook hands with him and said, "Welcome Premier He to the Ministry of Agriculture to guide his work."

He Anguo smiled very friendly, and then said, "I have been here several times this year, and every time I come is for the agricultural reform." He looked at Yao Ze behind Xu Zhuangyan, and said with a smile: "Yao Ze, we meet again!" Then he walked to Yao Ze and reached out.

Yao Ze was extremely moved by a big shot like He Anguo who could still remember his name, which made Yao Ze feel a little flattered.

"Hello, Prime Minister." Yao Ze shook hands with He Anguo calmly. Feeling He Anguo's warm, generous and powerful palms, Yao Ze was actually a little fluttering and shook hands with the national leaders.

He Anguo looked up and down at Yao Ze for a few times, then nodded with a smile, and said, "I'm much stronger. I was a little scared when I first saw me. I performed well this time." He Anguo's jokes at Yao Ze reduced the pressure in Yao Ze a lot.

Yao Ze scratched his head and smiled angrily.

He Anguo asked Yao Ze with a smile: "It's already a department level now?"

Yao Ze nodded and said, "It has been more than half a year since he was transferred from the Provincial Department of Agriculture to Jiangping City to be the mayor."

He Anguodao: "Since ancient times, heroes have become young people, so you are very strong."

He Anguo said this casually, which shocked Yao Ze in a cold sweat. His momentum was indeed a bit frightening. This has always been something that Yao Ze was uneasy. Even the vice premier opposite him would probably not have the promotion speed of his rocket when he was young.

"Let's go, let's go to Minister Xu's office and chat while having tea. I still have some things to ask Mayor Yao for advice." He Anguo's kind words dragged Yao Ze back to reality.

The guards were waiting outside Xu Zhuangyan's office. At this time, there were only He Anguo, Xu Zhuangyan, and Yao Ze in the office.

Xu Zhuangyan asked He Anguo to sit down, then smiled and said, "Prime Minister He is busy with state affairs and has come to ask these issues in rural reform in person, which shows Premier He's concern for the country and the people."

Indeed, although He Anguo looked meticulous in suit and tie, Yao Ze could still see his dusty state from him.

As national leaders, what needs to be worried about is far beyond imagination. They should have few opportunities to reunite with their families, right?

Thinking of this, Yao Ze actually lost his ambitions at the beginning. What if he reached the peak of power? Without time to live with his family and lover, Yao Ze may feel retiring even if he has the opportunity to take the most powerful position.

In fact, Yao Ze is a man who loves the country but loves beauty more.
