Chapter 439 Abandoning Soft China and Changing to COHIBA
Tang Aimin just wants to bring Ye Shaofeng back to Luyang City. Ye Shaofeng has the ability and level. This is obvious to all. He is fully qualified for any position in the municipal government agencies. Secondly, although Ye Shaofeng has not expressed his political affiliation, but Almost everyone now thinks that Ye Shaofeng is a member of the Tang faction. With Ye Shaofeng working in the city, it will increase the chips for the Tang faction. The most important point is that Ye Shaofeng has a gang background and is currently in Luyang City. There is no one who can join the officialdom and has a gangster background. Moreover, Ye Shaofeng also has a business group. As the real chairman of Zonghai Group and one of the shareholders of Hutoushan Minerals, Ye Shaofeng wants money. He must be powerful. With his current abilities in Luyang City, he is not inferior to anyone else. Tang Aimin, the municipal Party committee secretary who drinks a lot, even looks up to Ye Shaofeng.
Tang Aimin thought to himself that even he would look up to people. I am afraid that few other officials in the city would dare to have trouble with Ye Shaofeng. If Ye Shaofeng returns to the city from Wu'an County, even if Ye Shaofeng is not helping in the municipal party committee and government Tang Aimin will also give those who oppose the Tang Sect a certain degree of deterrence, making the Tang Sect's position in Luyang City more stable.
In short, transferring Ye Shaofeng from the Wu'an County Public Security Bureau back to Luyang City will be of no harm to the Tang faction. Therefore, Tang Aimin's purpose of calling Ye Shaofeng here today is very clear. It is to bring him back to Luyang City.
Ye Shaofeng didn't want to join the municipal government committee. So Tang Aimin asked him to continue doing his job. He joined the Municipal Public Security Bureau and became the deputy director. He was half a level higher than Ye Shaofeng's previous county bureau and became a deputy division level cadre. This was very important to Ye Shaofeng. For such a young man, this is definitely a generous treatment.
But Ye Shaofeng still shook his head in embarrassment and said: "I don't dare to be the deputy director of the municipal public security bureau. In fact, to be honest, Uncle Tang, I don't even want to be the director of the county public security bureau. When I'm so tired. I want to take a break and relax."
"What? You don't want to be in politics anymore. Brother Shaofeng, why have you changed? Where is the end of your previous enthusiasm?" Tang Jiaqian said a little angrily.
Tang Aimin glanced at Tang Jiaqian and said, "Jiaqian, go see if your mother is coming back. Here, let Shaofeng and I talk alone."
"Dad. But he..."
"Okay, okay. Let's go out for a walk. Shaofeng and I have some private matters. I will advise him carefully." Tang Aimin said to his daughter with a smile.
Tang Jiaqian turned around and walked out of the house with a slight anger.
The door to the study room is closed. The sound insulation effect of this room is very good. Moreover, when the door is closed, no one will walk in without authorization.
After Tang Jiaqian left, Tang Aimin took out a box of cigars from the drawer, opened the exquisite wooden box, took out a cigar as thick as his thumb and threw it to Ye Shaofeng.
Ye Shaofeng reached out and caught it quickly, but raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Uncle Tang, I don't smoke anymore. I borrowed it."
"You can smoke one today and relax. This is a high-end cigar imported from Cuba. It is the most famous brand of cigars in the world. COHIBA. A cigar of this brand costs US$3,600, which is equivalent to more than 20,000 yuan. "Tang Aimin said.
Ye Shaofeng holds such an expensive cigar in his hand. Although this kid has seen a lot, he has never been to Cuba on a mission and has never smoked cigars. Therefore, holding such an expensive cigar, Ye Shaofeng's eyes have been opened. I’ve learned a lot. One puff costs tens of dollars and hundreds of RMB. I’ve seen people smoke awesome cigarettes, but I’ve never seen people smoke such expensive cigars.
It was lit, and the cigar emitted a trace of smoke. Ye Shaofeng hadn't smoked for a long time. After inhaling, the smoke just entered his lungs. He choked and coughed twice. The cigar itself was strong. In addition, Ye Shaofeng hadn't smoked for a long time. I smoke. So, I couldn’t find the feeling after such a sudden puff. I wasn’t used to the taste for a while, and I couldn’t taste its beauty. But it was quite choking.
Tang Aimin smiled. He also lit one and said: "A foreign businessman gave it to me when we were having dinner. In addition to this, he also gave me three million US dollars. But I didn't accept it. I only wanted this box. cigarette."
Ye Shaofeng knew that there must be something else in Tang Aimin's words. He wanted to go deeper through cigars, and also talk about officialdom. Perhaps, he wanted to continue to persuade him. These leaders, speeches, and persuasion. It's really a very clever thing.
"I have never smoked such an expensive cigar. Today you are here. I want to share it with you. Not just sharing cigarettes, but also sharing our experience as officials."
"Experience." Ye Shaofeng said.
"Yes. Does the cigar choke?" Tang Aimin asked.
"Choke. I'm really not used to it."
"You get used to it if you smoke too much. It's the same as in officialdom. Once you become an official, you have a prominent position. You are in a position that many people will never be able to touch. Is this position good? Of course it is. But sometimes. You will If you can't sit still, all kinds of troubles will find you. But when the troubles increase and you face more and more, then you will get used to it. Once you get used to the troubles that being an official brings. You will find that being an official is a very good thing. So, this is why many people have sharpened their heads and want to climb higher. Just like many smokers, they still give up their cigars even if they know they are choking. The red panda in Soft China just wants to smoke a cigar. Because holding a cigar can show your true identity.
Shaofeng, you have the ability and passion. If you can't let go of the little enjoyment you have now, then you won't experience the higher level of fun. Just like the people who don't want to give up the red panda, the soft China, will never give up. If you are not used to smoking cigars, you will never feel how wonderful this cigar costs thousands of dollars."
"Uncle Tang. I'm really in trouble..."
Ye Shaofeng was about to speak when he was interrupted by Tang Aimin. Tang Aimin continued: "Shaofeng, I know. You want money and power now. You may think that it is enough now. Maybe you are content. I think that many people are not as good as you. Many of your peers will not reach your height. Even most people will never reach your current height in their lifetime.
But, Shaofeng, if you don't look to a higher level and see more beauty, you will never feel it. Although the political world is full of troubles and dangers, you can only know it when you can gain a foothold in it. What is the life of a truly top-notch person?"
Ye Shaofeng wanted to speak, but Tang Aimin stopped him again and continued...
