Chapter 385 Requesting to See the Chief

At this time, Fang Min's parents were like two down-and-out dogs, kneeling in front of Gu Yan, wagging their tails and begging for mercy.

"Sir, please forgive my son and don't let him go to jail or get shot, okay?"

"As long as we can save Da Zi, we old bones will do anything you ask. Not to mention standing up and saying a few words, we're willing to go through fire and water."

The older generation’s patriarchal thinking is so stubborn and shameful.

When their daughter died, as long as they had money, they could laugh and rejoice happily in front of her body without feeling any grief or sadness at all.

When it comes to his son, the same situation arises. He wants to gouge out their hearts and cut off their flesh, even if it means they are willing to sacrifice their lives for his son.

It's really ridiculous.

After hearing Gu Yan say that they had dealt with the old couple, Qi Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it doesn't involve a criminal case, Ms. Wen's troubles can be solved with a simple wave of the hand.

And that trump card can be used to a greater extent.

Qi Xu took a deep breath, calmed himself, and calmly walked up the stairs to the top floor of the military affairs building.

She followed the procedures and registered with the assistant before Secretary Yang took her to meet Commander Li.

"Hello, Chief!"

Qi Xu saluted with an elegant and calm smile as usual.

"Girl, you finally decided to come. I've been waiting for you for many days, and I thought you wouldn't be able to use that piece of paper."

Commander Li really didn't expect Qi Xu to be so patient and wait until the last moment to ask for help after the incident.

Qi Xu respectfully placed the two bags of fruit he had picked up on the table to show his appreciation.

"Commander, I don't know what you like to eat, so I brought you some fruit. It's good for your health to supplement some vitamin C while you're working or relaxing."

When asking someone to do something for you, it is basic etiquette not to go empty-handed.

It wasn't that she was reluctant to buy expensive things, but as a leader, the more valuable the gift, the less appropriate it would be.

Two simple pieces of ordinary fruits are the most decent.

The fruits she chose also have special meanings. Apples represent peace, oranges represent success, and the fruits are all round, representing perfection.

Seeing that she was so smart and sensible, Commander Li didn't bother to waste any more words to test her and asked her directly.

"Tell me, how do you want the military to intervene?"

Qi Xu met Commander Li's stern gaze and spoke bluntly.

"Commander, I want the military to step in and protect the Xu family."

"From the perspective of a politician and an official, Mr. Xu Sanye is actually a very outstanding and upright official."

"With the ups and downs of officialdom and high positions, who doesn't have a few grains of dust on their body?"

"He wasn't corrupt, didn't take human life lightly, and didn't oppress the people. He simply leaked a little information, promoted a few close associates, and used his power to do some minor favors for his relatives. Compared to those black tigers hiding in the shadows, he can be considered a competent public servant."

"So, I want to use that IOU to protect the Xu family's reputation. He can step down from that position, but please give him the respect he deserves and let him retire normally, okay?"

From the very beginning, Commander Li guessed that she would ask for this because she was a person with a clear mind, a long-term vision, and a strong sense of friendship and loyalty.

She won't ask for anything that can be solved with money.

This is precisely the most difficult thing to do.

The military and political departments should not interfere with each other. This is the most basic rule in officialdom.

Only when faced with major national events, disasters, or serious cases will they complement each other, work together for the country, and help the people solve problems.

Commander Li looked embarrassed. He peeled an orange and handed her half, motioning her to take another step back.

"Girl, this is difficult!"

"If the military acts rashly, I'm afraid two stars will fall off my hat."

Qi Xu took the half orange, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it quickly. Then he wiped the juice from the corner of his mouth and smiled mischievously.

"Don't worry, Chief. I won't make things difficult for you."

"All you need to do is help me get this information, publish two commendation articles on my behalf using the official account, and send a representative to speak for me at this critical moment."

"I'll handle the rest. I won't bring shame to the army, and I won't get you into trouble."

Qi Xu told General Li his plan truthfully and asked for his advice.

"Commander, do you think my actions are appropriate? Is there a better solution to help my family out of this predicament?"

After listening to this, Commander Li was amazed and admired the wisdom and strategy of this little girl in particular. Those clever strategies, one after another, were simply impeccable.

"It's a blessing for Lin Dapao to marry a wife as smart and insightful as you."

"Your plan is excellent. With such broad-mindedness and determination, and the willingness to sacrifice, even if the military doesn't intervene, the higher-ups will likely give the Xu family a lenient punishment, and there won't be too much danger."

"I originally thought you would grab my throat and force me to come out and take the blame for you. I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful and never thought of making things difficult for an old man like me."

"In that case, I'll give you two more gift packages. Otherwise, I'd be hard-pressed to take this piece of paper from you!"

Seeing that Old Man Li was so generous, Qi Xu also expressed his gratitude politely.

"Thank you very much, Commander. Next time, if the army encounters difficulties and needs money, just tell me directly. No need to write an IOU."

"Hahahaha!" Commander Li laughed out loud.

"Little girl, you are so generous. I will definitely not be polite in the future."

"You're welcome, you're welcome. It's an honor for our Lin family to contribute to the army."

When leaving, Qi Xu shamelessly asked Commander Li for dozens of people with a playful smile.

"Commander, I'm going to the capital now. Could you send some more soldiers to protect me? And also to support me?"

Even if Qi Xu didn't say anything, Old Man Li would have sent someone to take her there. This little girl is the apple of Pao Ye's eye. If anything goes wrong, that big-headed cannon will probably explode again.

"No problem. Not only Jun Gege, I'll also send you two military vehicles. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to call me. Safety is the most important thing, understand?"

Qi Xu straightened up and gave him a Young Pioneer salute.

"Yes, Chief!"

With her baby face and respectful demeanor as a child, she really looks like a model student.

"You little girl, you really know how to please others. Go quickly and stop being naughty!"

After arriving in Kyoto, Qi Xu first went to Shanglin Group in the name of a major shareholder with professional financial personnel to request an audit.

She wanted to find out how many tricks Hua Changqing and his wife had played in secret, and how much loss the Shanglin Group had incurred.
