BXBX NOVEL Chapter 173: Each gets their benefit
Hearing Ling Qingyu\'s perfunctory suggestion, Yang Qingyue had her eyes brightened. Yes, why not change her department fleet style?
Although under centralization, everything was uniform in the police force, her situation in Province N demanded autonomy to achieve more success.
So, the plan was indeed plausible. She wasn\'t trying to change the entire police force anyway.
Prefecture City level reform shouldn\'t meet too many repercussions. A new public image could whitewash previous bad reputations.
With the new chief in position, it seemed a new outlook could be the first step to gaining more public trust.
Her prior success, despite nearly costing her career, achieved tremendous success and heightened her prestige among the public and within the police force.
Combined with her vast background in the capital plus her mother\'s backing, she was another force to be reckoned with.
The landscape of Province N would be in turmoil soon and the storm brew under the current.
Yang Qingyue waved her hand, completely relaxed. "It doesn\'t matter. Miss Ling\'s advice is not bad….hmm…Sister Ling\'s advice."
Yang Qingyue changed the style of address after seeing Ling Qingyu\'s blaming eyes. Since showered by candies, she should reciprocate a little, right?
Yang Qingyue still hadn\'t found out the real Ling Qingyu\'s attributes. Didn\'t know if she would regret it in the future, giving her predator a chance.
"I saw many vehicles painted in the same color with our logos. How many are you donating, Sister Ling?" Cai Ning asked the main point.
After playing around for some time, they could call sister to each other. Girls\' friendship is indeed fast.
Regarding Cai Ning\'s inquiry, Ling Qingyu wasn\'t sure. All she knew was she bought more than 80 vehicles.
Before she was about to ask Athena for an answer, Tang Ziyi took her place: "30 Jaguar sedan similar to this plus 10 station wagon. 10 BMWs— 5 of them sedans and the other 5 wagons. The last 20 are Volvo\'s SUVs and wagons. You knew in one of the countries in Alyssia Continent, the Volvo wagon ranked 9.2 out of 10 among the various vehicles tested for the police work."
Yang Qingyue and Cai Ning gasped hearing the answer. Altogether there were 70 vehicles donated and Ling Qingyu didn\'t blink an eye! What kind of magnanimous display?
If every rich had at least 10 percent of Ling Qingyu\'s kindness, there would be very little crime. It might be an overstatement to some but the reality was the case.
Were the rich wrong to ignore the plight of the people? No, they weren\'t. They donated in many areas where people couldn\'t see or maybe not.
Their money meant their decisions.
Of course, Yang Qingyue and Cai Ning lamented the rich inside Province N. Should they cooperate like Ling Qingyu with the police, where would be the current mess?
Instead, they exploited the situation and gained more wealth. This was also the reason, Ling Qingyu had some reluctance to connect with Shen family.
The current and former Ling Qingyu felt the same. It felt like dancing around the lazy tiger and poking its butt.
Finally, Yang Qingyue said. "It\'s too much but since Sister Ling says so, I\'ll be disrespectful."
Ling Qingyu said with a smile. "Naturally, this isn\'t the only donation. I can put in some funds if you ever need my help. Should your station\'s financial status become unstable or someone manipulating, just give me a call?"
When Yang Qingyue was about to refuse, Cai Ning immediately said from the side. "Then, we\'ll thank you in advance. I hope Sister Ling won\'t refuse us if we come to beg."
Ling Qingyu waved her hand and expressed her strong support. "Of course, not. Anything else?"
Seeing the two policewomen staring at her, Ling Qingyu was confused and asked. Yang Qingyue and Cai Ning exchanged a glance, seemingly discussing a topic silently, and inquired.
Cai Ning: "It\'ll be disrespectful for us to accept without any price. Are there any requirements from the donor?"
"How could it be? As a citizen, I\'m very willing to help our police force enforce the law and bring back our Province N to prosperity." Ling Qingyu replied with an official tone.
Cai Ning and Yang Qingyue who danced around in the blade dance of the politics knew it was a polite refusal. They also acted from their side and pressured Ling Qingyu so that their conscience wasn\'t hurt.
Ling Qingyu reported her main goal, quickly briefing her guards\' circumstances and her aim to set up a new independent SWAT unit in this residence.
The chance to negotiate was still on the table. Ling Qingyu didn\'t force her idea to the two high-ranking policewomen or so she thought.
Thinking of the scenes where Ling Qingyu\'s guards impeccably gunned down the gangs and the armor trucks she brought out, Cai Ning and Yang Qingyue felt powerless to argue.
At least, they were relieved, their group wanted to become like a SWAT unit instead of mercenaries.
"Who\'s in charge of this group then?" Yang Qingyue asked. She thought it should be Tang Ziyi.
Tang Ziyi shook her head and Ling Qingyue replied. "Su Ruomei. She served as an officer in the army. She had more experience regarding the bureaucracy. SWAT HQ buildings will be the buildings you saw."
Yang Qingyue and Cai Ning turned their heads toward the 8-story villa, thinking their police had a luxury building too now.
Ling Qingyu continued: "You see, someone has attempted to assassinate me and almost succeeded. Even with our investigation and yours, we have no lead who\'s responsible. But sooner or later that gangs will know my move and retaliate…"
Cai Ning: "So, having a SWAT nearby will deter them and could also solve the problem."
Ling Qingyu nodded her head. "Of course, I\'m not going to use SWAT to my own benefit too much. You can request help from us if there is any situation that can\'t be resolved. Plus, in name, Sister Yang will be directly commanding this armed group."
Tang Ziyi added to Ling Qingyu\'s points: "The girls are all discharged from the military not with honor but being forced. I can promise, that it was because they resisted immoral orders or fight against injustice, that they suffered this condition. They long to work in the official environment and a SWAT work is one that can satisfy them psychologically."
Cai Ning bowed her head in contemplation. She could see the vibrant energy from the female guards when she rode on the armored truck as Tang Ziyi stated and Ling Qingyu\'s request didn\'t seem too much other than outside of their control.
Yang Qingyue\'s head was going in the same direction but she also saw an opportunity to increase her prestige and power. Having a unit belonging to her solely in name could subdue some officers who were resistant to her.
Listening to Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi, their words didn\'t contain exaggeration and showed the guards had hearts of justice suitable for their jobs. The only problem was how to control this armed group.
Judging from Ling Qingyu\'s demeanor and actions, one thing that they could see was she would never exploit others selfishly.
Well, if someone dared to cross her, the gang\'s rivalry case in the past days showed her stance.
Ling Qingyu said with a joke: "I even suspect my guards will quickly leave me if not for high salary and comfort of living within my residence. They prefer helping others in need more than protecting me."
Yang Qingyue wouldn\'t take her words seriously but she got the point. "The problem is how can I be relieved your armed group wouldn\'t be slinging around?"
Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi glanced at each other, contemplating the issue. Should they make mistakes regarding Yang Qingyue\'s question, the whole idea would reach nowhere.
Ling Qingyu said slowly after a while: "I can\'t promise you anything but I\'ll tell you, the guards are only for my self-protection. If there\'s a case, I might be utilizing them, I\'ll inform you first, provided you can keep the secret."
Yang Qingyue was satisfied with Ling Qingyu\'s serious reply and it was the extreme extent she could offer.
Cai Ning also nodded. Compared to other families who knew what they had hidden in Province N, Ling Qingyu\'s transparent behavior and leaning toward their team appeared more promising.
"Is that all?" Cai Ning inquired.
"Hmm, of course not, I want my donation to be known to the public in a press conference. I hope Sister Yang can arrange this for me." Ling Qingyu said.
"Can, it\'s natural we let the public know where our funds and the vehicles come from." Yang Qingyue agreed.
This political move could state to the powerhouses in Province N, Yang Qingyue had the support of Ling Qingyu and it could change the chess pieces overnight, compared to her previous lone-wolf status.
In addition, Ling Qingyu\'s first move might placate the other business parties to come forward to join her side too. There were benefits and Yang Qingyue would never refuse.
Even if Ling Qingyu hadn\'t mentioned it, Yang Qingyue would have spoken about public relations affairs.
Ling Qingyu received benefits too, by increasing her reputation among the public and perhaps receiving merits as requested by Miss System.
These factors could increase her revenue when consumers remembered Ling Qingyu\'s charitable behavior.
Beginning with the police, Ling Qingyu would spread her donations, building roads, offering jobs, founding a new school, and whatsnot.
