Chapter 547: Don’t get married before the age of 30
After exchanging a few pleasantries and drinking two cups of tea, Tong Ziqian started talking about some serious matters: "Lizhou is planning to set up an urban management law enforcement team, which will be upgraded to a bureau next year or the year after. Is your uncle interested in becoming a team leader?"
"Forget about that. My uncle's personality makes him unsuitable for being the top leader. It would be enough for him to be the deputy director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau before he retires."
Thinking of her uncle's good nature, Zhou Anan shook her head and rejected the other party's kindness.
For someone at the level of Secretary Tong, it certainly wouldn't be difficult to arrange a director, not to mention that there might be the will of Wuzhou No. 2 behind him.
But to be honest, my uncle's personality is not suitable for being the top leader, especially in the Urban Management Department which will be at the center of controversy in the future, as there are simply too many things to do.
Zhou Anan remembered very clearly in her previous life that her aunt often said that her uncle was not ambitious. Her uncle retorted that those ambitious people who entered the unit at the same time as her had already been imprisoned.
Zhou Anan felt that being able to work peacefully until retirement as deputy director was the best arrangement made by her uncle-in-law.
"Okay, I understand."
Understanding what the other party meant, Tong Ziqian did not force it and instead started chatting about the somewhat regrettable pedestrian street beneath his feet.
Under the planning of County Magistrate Zhou's predecessor, this pedestrian street was going to be the star sign of Lizhou and even Wuzhou in the future. However, huge amounts of money were invested in it, and after being prosperous for a short period of time, it became deserted.
"That is, the original plan was too messy. If it is properly rectified, there may be room for recovery."
Zhou Anan is very familiar with this pedestrian street which was once glorious for a month or two, and feels it is a pity.
When the pedestrian street first opened, businesses of all sizes flocked in, and there was no planning at all. The originally quaint street was filled with all kinds of fireworks and there was no style of a pedestrian street at all.
The mixing of branded clothing stores, snack bars and restaurants not only makes customers feel disorganized, but also poses a great safety risk.
As a result, it lasted less than half a year before tenants moved out one after another. The pedestrian street, which cost tens of millions to build, was in ruins, leaving only a snack street with a relatively large flow of people.
Well, most of the shops on that street have been bought by Zhou Anan.
It can be said that Zhou Anan is now the richest landlord on the pedestrian street, bar none.
"The prefect once wanted to revitalize this commercial street, but after asking people to study it, they found that the cost was still too high. As for private enterprises, the benefits were unclear, so no one dared to take over."
While drinking tea, Tong Ziqian sighed, as if sentencing this commercial center that had been glorious for more than a month to death.
As a native of Lizhou, I have a little bit of sentimentality about this pedestrian street.
"We can't help it. The purchasing power of Lizhou people is not weak, but there are no suitable brand merchants to settle in, so we can't attract customers after all."
Zhou Anan saw this issue more than ten years ahead of others.
In the next few decades, the only prime commercial land for Lizhou people were Nanlong Department Store and Lizhou Mall, and it would be useless to mess around with the rest of the land.
This pedestrian street is just across the street from Nanlong Department Store, but it has failed to develop. Rather than being a feng shui problem, it is more likely because the higher-ups have become discouraged and let things go.
Anyway, there are no big guys at the top paying attention to the prospects of this commercial street, and the people behind them all have their own territories.
The pedestrian street has become deserted.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I heard that your Mingliu Group is going to jointly develop a data center with TX. Have you decided on a location?"
“.”
In the end, Zhou Anan still let Secretary Tong return to Wuzhou in disappointment.
In terms of data center construction, the inexperienced Mingliu Group mainly focuses on TX.
Zhou Anan did not intervene too much, but he knew that when building a data center, the location chosen must have a suitable climate, which could save a lot of expenses on heat dissipation.
Wuzhou, with its distinct four seasons, is definitely not under consideration.
"I've rejected you so many times, I don't think that boss will remember me."
Looking at the car driving away with Secretary Tong, Zhou Anan touched his chin, feeling a little worried.
However, he felt that the big boss with broad mind would definitely not be so petty.
Otherwise, he could only change to another big thick leg to hug.
".Wuzhou wants to build a livable city in China, and it is not suitable for a data center that may carry radiation."
"That's what he said?"
After hearing the report from the butler, Zhou Huxiang smiled and put down the documents in his hand.
This kid is becoming more and more shrewd. It’s impossible to take advantage of him.
"Well, I think what he said makes sense."
Tong Ziqian didn't mind saying a few good words for the little brother with whom he got along well.
Even he knew that there was something fishy about the other party's words, but the other party said it beautifully.
What's more, given the other party's current status, even he, the second-in-command of Wuzhou, needs to rely on him.
Who knows when he will take office and need help from the other party.
"Hahaha, you."
After taking a sip of water, Zhou Huxiang did not dwell on this, but instead was concerned about a small question: "Did he also refuse Director Cao's transfer?!"
"Yes."
Regarding this question, Tong Ziqian paraphrased the little brother's original words.
From this point of view, Tong Ziqian still admires that little brother very much.
The position of the top of a game is not something that everyone can refuse.
"The Yu family has chosen a good steward, with clear decisions and fair judgment."
The image of the little guy in his mind gradually became fuller, and Zhou Huxiang couldn't help but sigh.
If the other party had not been chosen by the Yu family, he would have wanted to train that little guy well.
Well, it’s a bit of an exaggeration to say “training”. There will still be opportunities for cooperation in the future.
Tong Ziqian, who was standing nearby, moved his ears but said nothing.
Zhou Anan, who was originally planning to return to Hangzhou today, was delayed by Secretary Tong and did not go back. Instead, she went home and stayed there for another night.
"Back to school so early?"
Hearing that his son was going back to school, Wang Jingyu felt a little reluctant while eating breakfast.
Since going to college, her son has rarely stayed at home, so she has no time to buy him some new clothes.
"Well, isn't school starting in a few days? I'll go back and prepare."
Zhou Anan answered simply while drinking the porridge quickly.
After several experiences, Zhou Anan, who is no longer the naive boy in his previous life, gave much calmer reasons when faced with questions from his parents.
"Will you come back this month?"
"I should come back. I'll only stay for two days."
Thinking of the promise she made to the two female students, Zhou Anan felt that she still had to go home.
After all, it’s not good to be away from home all year round.
"Oh, go early and come back early."
"Uh-huh."
"You should know the temperature when you are outside, and don't be reluctant to buy clothes, okay?"
"I understand."
Seeing that his son was going home, Wang Jingyu felt a little less emotional about parting. He gave him a few instructions and said nothing more.
"Don't have any girlfriends while you're still studying."
Zhou Youliang, who originally had a lot to say, noticed his wife's warning look and just said something lightly.
Their son has a girlfriend and they don’t know about it and there’s nothing they can do.
If his son gave birth to another child, there would be nothing he could do.
When he was this old, he was already looking for a matchmaker.
But times have changed now. My son is still young, so it’s too early for him to find a wife.
"Don't worry, I won't get married before I'm thirty."
Zhou Anan, who had experience in her past life, subconsciously refuted her father's words.
