Quick, female general, I traveled through time to save my father

Chapter 299 Human Traffickers Deserve to Die 44

Hearing his grandson's proposal, Lin Hankun couldn't help but feel relieved.

Lin Rui's maturity and responsibility far exceeded his expectations. In fact, before deciding to send Lin Xiuyuan to Jinghai City, he had considered sending Lin Rui to the military camp for safety, but he had not yet made a final decision.

Lin Hankun knew very well that the Qin brothers' influence in Jinghai City was deeply rooted and almost omnipresent.

However, the military is an exception. It is the nation's most solid fortress, the most impartial and selfless place. No matter how prominent your family background or how wealthy you are in society, in the military, everything is decided by strength.

This characteristic of the military camp made it impossible for the Qin brothers to reach in.

This is not because they are unwilling, but because the system and discipline of the military camp make it difficult for them to start. Everyone here must rely on their own ability and perseverance to prove themselves.

Any background and connections are useless in the military camp.

It is obvious that the children of the Qin family still prefer to take some easier shortcuts and do not want to live such a hard life.

"Ruirui, I'm very pleased that you have such an idea." Lin Hankun's tone was full of praise and affirmation, "The military camp is indeed a place where you can grow and be protected.

The fact that you can realize this shows that you have grown up.

Grandpa is still willing to do this privilege!" He said, and his first smile of the day appeared on his face.

Unlike Lin Hankun and Lin Xiuyuan's approval, Lin Rui's mother and grandmother were both worried.

Lin Rui just turned 15 this year and is in his first year of high school. He's always excelled academically. Is he going to the military now? So he won't be taking the college entrance exam?

Li Jingya didn't think her father-in-law would send Lin Rui to military school because he didn't have enough academic qualifications.

She knew her father-in-law very well. Lin Hankun was a man of integrity, especially when it came to principles and bottom lines. He was never vague.

Because of this, Li Jingya did not think that Lin Hankun would really use his privilege to send Lin Rui directly to the military academy, at least he would not send him to a position where his virtue did not match his position.

This is not to say that the old man does not have the ability. With Lin Hankun's position and influence, it is not difficult to arrange for a child to enter a military school or join the army.

However, in Lin Hankun's view, privileges can be used, but they must never be abused. Especially when it comes to his family, he will not let his descendants take up positions that they should not have.

At most, he could use his own convenience to create an opportunity for Lin Rui, such as letting him participate in some special selections or training. As for whether Lin Rui could seize this opportunity and whether he could develop in the army, it all depended on him.

"Grandpa won't let him easily follow a path paved by connections," Li Jingya thought to herself. She understood that her father-in-law was doing this for Lin Rui's own good. Allowing a child to strive and grow on his own merits, rather than relying on family background and privilege, was the true love he showed Lin Rui.

Just like that, after settling his family affairs, Lin Xiuyuan brought his confidants and officially came to Jinghai City, taking office and becoming the mayor of this important coastal city.

Lin Xiuyuan is now in his second year as mayor of Jinghai. Over the past year or so, the political situation in Jinghai has been turbulent and full of undercurrents.

Lin Xiuyuan and Qin Haoran, the representative of another major force in Jinghai, are evenly matched and neither of them will give in.

Qin Haoran's roots in Jinghai are deep and complex, and he controls almost half of Jinghai City. Although Lin Xiuyuan was parachuted in, he quickly gained a firm foothold with his extraordinary political wisdom and skills, forming a check and balance situation with Qin Haoran.

If he wanted to truly achieve something in this city, it would be far from enough to simply confront the Qin brothers. He also needed to place some trustworthy and upright people in key positions to consolidate his own power and check the further expansion of Qin Haoran's influence.

After careful consideration, Lin Xiuyuan quietly placed several of his carefully selected confidants in important positions in Jinghai City.

Each of these individuals had been observed by him over the years and confirmed to be capable and upright. They were unaffiliated with any power, acting solely on the principles of conscience and duty. They were exactly the kind of people Lin Xiuyuan needed.

One of them is Li Chengdong, the current deputy director of the Jinghai Municipal Public Security Bureau.

He has been Lin Xiuyuan's old subordinate for many years. He has fought side by side with Lin Xiuyuan in many cities and handled countless complex cases.

He is upright and impartial, and no matter how much pressure he faces, he can stick to his bottom line. Because of this, Lin Xiuyuan transferred him to the position of Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau, hoping that through him, he can effectively rectify the public security and legal environment in Jinghai City.

The other is Wang Zhiguo, deputy director of the Jinghai Municipal Finance Bureau.

Wang Zhiguo is a seasoned financial expert who has held key positions in several economically important cities. He is not only well-versed in financial affairs but also deeply abhors all forms of corruption.

Lin Xiuyuan arranged him to the Jinghai Municipal Finance Bureau in the hope that through his professional ability and clean style, he could curb the illegal operations carried out by Qin Haoran's side through financial means.

These individuals quietly fulfilled their roles in their respective positions. They weren't conspicuous, but like nails, they were firmly embedded in every important link in Jinghai City, playing a key role in stabilizing the overall situation and balancing hostile forces.

Qin Haoran was not unaware of Lin Xiuyuan's plans, but these people were promoted and appointed through normal procedures, and each of them had outstanding abilities and clean backgrounds, so he had no idea where to start.

Lin Xiuyuan took every step with extreme caution, and his confidants were not simple pawns, but capable people who could truly be used by him and were independent at the same time.

After Sirong sorted out Lin Xiuyuan's information in her mind, she felt it would be best to meet him.

The arrest is imminent, and local police cannot be used. The police force in Jinghai City is complex and many people have close ties with Qin Haoran. Using them is tantamount to walking into a trap.

If anyone is capable of transferring personnel from the provincial department to cooperate, it has to be Lin Xiuyuan.

Thinking of this, Sirong shared her thoughts with the other three people and introduced Mayor Lin's background.

"The arrest operation is imminent, we can't wait any longer." Si Rong said straight to the point, "Mayor Lin Xiuyuan has enough influence in the provincial department and can dispatch reliable personnel from there.

Moreover, according to the information we have, he and the Qin brothers have always been in a state of checks and balances, so he should be willing to cooperate with us."
