Chapter 91 Elder Nie’s Arrangement The plane soared into the clouds.

When the plane landed at Jingcheng City Airport, Nie Zhenbang was full of emotions. He had returned. After three long years, he was finally home.

At this moment, the Zhou family had been marginalized. With the appointment of a new leader, the country was now dominated by the voice of reform and openness. The conservative faction was now being pushed into a corner.

At the airport exit, a black Mercedes E-class 300E was parked on the sidelines. At this moment, the personal secretary of the old man had come up to greet him.

In this life, unlike the previous one, although Audi had teamed up with FAW.

But, at the same time, Jingcheng Automobile had also aligned with Mercedes.

Consequently, the Audi 100 launched in the country was inferior to the E300 launched by Mercedes. The Audi 100 was a product of ’82, while the Mercedes was a new product launched in ’86. Moreover, according to the agreement, for each new product of Mercedes, Jingcheng Mercedes has the rights and qualifications to request synchronous production or sale.

In this manner, when there was not a significant price difference, Audi wasn’t able to dominate the high-end car market in the country like it did in his previous life. Instead, it formed a rivalry with Mercedes.

“Zhenbang, you must be tired after the journey, please get in the car. The chief is waiting for you at home.” The secretary warmly took Nie Zhenbang’s luggage and put it in the trunk of the vehicle.

With Nie Zhenbang getting in, the car swiftly started and drove out of the airport.

It was still the familiar red-walled compound, that strictly guarded place. This was where the country’s core lay.

The car had a smooth journey, and directly stopped at the front of the house. At this point, the old lady was already eagerly waiting at the entrance.

As Nie Zhenbang got out of the car, the old lady had already come to greet him. Looking at Nie Zhenbang, the old lady got somewhat emotional, “You’ve grown stout. And darker. It’s good that you are back. It’s good that you are back.”

At this moment, the old man also came out of the house. In terms of vitality, the old man had already deteriorated significantly. Looking at the maturity exhibited by Nie Zhenbang, the old man nodded in satisfaction and joked, “It’s good that you’re back. If not, your grandma would have grown calluses in her ears bothering me about it.”

In the following days, Nie Zhenbang paid a visit to his school. At this moment, Nie Zhenbang was also reflective. In his previous life, he withdrew midway through his studies due to the fall of the Nie family after the official appointment of the new leader. Furthermore, the old man was no longer there to protect the Nie family at that time.

Now, the tricky situation of the Nie family had finally changed. Moreover, the Nie family had actually become a leading force in the reformist faction.

After obtaining his graduation certificate from Professor Shi, Nie Zhenbang immediately went to Professor Wang’s office. Over the past few years, Nie Zhenbang had already achieved party membership, but as his enlistment in the army did not follow the regular procedures, all of his party relations and academic records were maintained at Jingcheng University. In short, his three years of military career would not be found on Nie Zhenbang’s resume.

At this point, Professor Wang once again brought up the subject of Nie

Zhenbang studying for a master’s degree. This time, Nie Zhenbang accepted Professor Wang’s invitation without any evasion and agreed to come when the school starts.

At this moment, Nie Zhenbang was very clear. As the country’s reform and opening up deepened, a person’s academic record would become an important factor in an official’s promotion. At this moment, since he had decided to tread on this path, there were certain things he had to prepare and couldn’t compromise on.

When he got home, his grandpa was relaxing on a rocking chair. Seeing Nie

Zhenbang return, he suddenly opened his eyes and patted the stone bench next to him, saying, “Zhenbang, come sit, let’s talk.”

Hearing his grandfather’s words, Nie Zhenbang naturally had no objections. He walked over, sat on the stone bench, and asked, “Grandpa, how’s your health recently?”

But his grandfather waved his hand and said, “Not good. Actually, I’m already in a semi-retired state. The old leaders have already retired. Old Yang has also retired. Among the old folks, only I am left. It’s about time.”

This statement took Nie Zhenbang aback. There would be a distinct difference in the family situation depending on whether his grandfather retained his position or not. For now, his grandfather was the oldest member of the Political Bureau Standing Committee, and with him there, Chief No.l would give some face to the Nie family no matter what. However, once his grandfather retired, if the Nie’s descendants didn’t have good capabilities, then it might be difficult for his father and uncle to progress any further.

Seeing Nie Zhenbang’s startled expression, his grandfather laughed. At this moment, he seemed to have a detached attitude of light-heartedness about everything.

He waved his hand and said, “Zhenbang, is there anything difficult to comprehend? Birth, aging, sickness, and death, the succession of old and new, are a law that all things in the world must follow. What’s the problem whether I retire or not? If the descendants are promising, even without me, the Nie family can continue to thrive. But if the descendants are disappointing, can I live forever?”

His grandfather’s words, straightforward as they were, showed an acceptance of the inevitable: descendants will make their own fortunes. Everything had to be done independently.

Saying this, he looked at Nie Zhenbang who appeared thoughtful. The old man nodded approvingly. This grandchild was arguably the most outstanding among the Nie family’s descendants. He hadn’t seen it before, but in recent years, the influence of Nie Zhenbang had gradually come to bear. Let’s not mention anything else, but at least in the fields of industrial machinery manufacturing, special steel metallurgy, and military equipment development, as Nanxun Chief said, one Nie Zhenbang could count as tens of thousands of soldiers.

At this moment, he realized how astute Dong was in his insight.

His grandfather spoke again: “Zhenbang, when you graduate, the state will allocate you a position. The school assigned you to Yu Province, which is my old base. Most of the officials here are my former students and old officials. This can be considered as the sphere of influence of our Nie’s family. If you start your career here, your road to officialdom will be easier. However, I turned it down.”

Nie Zhenbang was greatly shocked by this. Originally, his plan was to go to Yuedong, which is under the influence of the Ye Family, or to Jiangnan

Province where his father Nie Guowei serves. He would serve as an official in a town, start from the grassroots, and climb step by step. This was the path that Nie Zhenbang had planned for himself. But now, his grandfather was suddenly changing the plan. He was inevitably surprised. Nie Zhenbang, faced with his Grandpa’s calm gaze, asked: “Why, Grandpa? Isn’t it good to start from grassroots levels? I think the organization will attach more importance to grassroots experience in the future. Doing this…?”

In response to Nie Zhenbang’s question, his grandfather was not only unannoyed but relieved. The descendants of the Nie family, for all their good qualities, have little personal thought and judgment. This was a regret for Elder Nie. It seemed that excessive discipline wasn’t always good. However, Nie Zhenbang, his grandson who grew up among ordinary people, had given him some hope.

“Hehe, Zhenbang, grassroots jobs primarily refer to county and city levels. There’s no need for township work. Therefore, I’ve taken the liberty of arranging your work unit for you in advance.” After saying this, the old man paused. Seeing Nie Zhenbang’s calm yet expectant look, he nodded approvingly and continued, “Tomorrow morning, take your referral letter and report directly to the Youth League Central Committee.”

Upon hearing his grandfather’s words, Nie Zhenbang was amazed and opened his mouth in surprise. Looking at his grandfather, he couldn’t help but wonder, had his grandfather also been reborn? The Crown Prince came from the Youth

League Central Committee, and the next deputy leader was currently serving there. Thinking about this, Nie Zhenbang’s heart started to burn with enthusiasm..
