Chapter 540 Compensation for Handing Over Power
"Madam Minister, should we also protest against the direct appointment of Vides as deputy director?" someone else asked.
"How to protest?" Nirmala glanced at the man and said, "Vides has the power. Besides, Rodon is the director of the Delhi branch. It is common for deputy directors to be directors of important branches. It is hard to refute this. Even the power distribution of the first deputy director is in the hands of Vides. As the director, he has the power to adjust the affairs of the deputy directors. But Rodon cannot get this power. It is best to let Aruda come forward to oppose. He is the direct party involved. You should prepare well and see how to provoke Aruda to come forward. As long as there is a major dispute or turmoil within the Central Bureau of Investigation, I will have an excuse to intervene."
Everyone soon understood.
Nirmala has a point.
After all, Nirmala still has to estimate Ermit’s feelings.
We need to make some big moves within the Central Bureau of Investigation. A conflict between the director and the most senior deputy director is definitely big news.
At the same time, Nirmala can use this as an excuse to call on her ministers to put pressure on Ermit, and then even the Prime Minister will stand on her side.
Now the key figure is Aruda.
Although Nirmala doesn't like this guy, she is willing to give Aruda some benefits as long as it is beneficial to the BJP.
Arruda Residence.
Late in the evening, quite a few people came out of his house.
Only after these people left did things slowly return to calm.
A middle-aged man in his forties walked into a study.
"Are they all gone?" Aruda sat on the chair, his face rosy, he looked very energetic and not sick at all.
"Yes, father, they have all left." Aruda's eldest son said, "They all insisted on seeing you, father. Are you really not going to intervene? This CBI meeting has deprived you of all your power. Vides has gone too far this time."
"Shut up." Aruda said with a gloomy face.
"Father, I'm unwilling to accept this anyway." Aruda's eldest son insisted, "Then why did Rodon take away the power in your hands?"
Although his father has always been the deputy director, he still has the greatest power among the many deputy directors of the Central Bureau of Investigation.
Such a position still brought great benefits to their family.
But then, the greatest power in his hands was about to be taken away and given to a young man like Rotten, which made him very dissatisfied.
"I know Sharif must have said something to you. You used to be his subordinate, but he is retired now. To put it bluntly, he is nothing. Why should you care about him?" the eldest son continued.
A few days ago, Sharif came to see his father, and he didn't know what Sharif said to his father.
But now he could probably guess that his father's current reaction must be related to Sharif's visit that night.
"It's fine if you say these things at home, but if you leak them to others, I will break your legs." Aruda's eyes suddenly became sharp.
This made his eldest son involuntarily look away, he didn't dare to look his father in the eye.
Aruda naturally has the final say at home, and even his own children dare not accuse him.
His eldest son was too angry this time. His father was indifferent to losing power. He could not tolerate such a reaction.
"Dad, I won't tell anyone, I promise." The eldest son hurriedly assured.
Aruda sighed secretly.
He still trusted his eldest son and knew he was sensible and would not talk nonsense outside.
"Originally I didn't want to tell you more about these things, but if I don't tell you anything, you will start to have wild thoughts." Aruda pondered for a moment and said, "Some things are not what you see."
"Father, is there something else going on here?" The eldest son asked, "But you have truly lost your power, haven't you?"
"Yes, I have lost a lot of power." Aruda smiled and said, "But they will give me some compensation later."
"What kind of compensation can make up for the lack of this power?" The eldest son was a little confused.
Should he let his father be the director of the Central Bureau of Investigation? But he rejected this idea as soon as it came to him.
There is no chance for his father to become the director, after all, Vides is younger than his father.
Now that his father has retired, Vides can still serve as director for a few more years.
"Of course," Aruda said, "For example, he could become the director of a branch office."
Hearing this, Aruda's eldest son was stunned.
"Father, did I hear you right?" Aruda's eldest son asked in confusion, "Didn't you have the opportunity to be the director of a state branch before, but you refused it? How can this be considered compensation? Compared with your loss, it is not proportional at all."
"That depends on which state the branch director is from," Aruda said. "What were those states like in the past? Middle and lower-level states. Although you could be a local tyrant in such places, how much benefit could you really get? I'm afraid it's not as comfortable as a deputy director like me. Although I have fewer things to manage, I still get a lot of benefits."
Aruda's eldest son thought about it and realized that the former branch directors were indeed from ordinary states with average economic performance.
In comparison, there is indeed no problem for his father to be the deputy director at the headquarters.
After all, his father, the deputy director, still has a lot of power, so he doesn't want to make trouble.
"Could it be a very good state this time?" Aruda's son asked excitedly, "Which state is it? Delhi and Maharashtra are definitely the best, but these two are unlikely. In other economically developed states, the branch directors seem to have a relatively stable position. Who will give up the position?"
Aruda's eldest son is relatively familiar with some personnel of the Central Bureau of Investigation. After all, his father is the deputy director. It is normal for him to know these things through what he has seen and heard.
In his opinion, the branch directors of those American countries are very powerful and have complicated relationships behind them.
If it was easy, how could one get such an important position? "It will definitely be beyond your imagination." Aruda laughed and said, "Of course, this may not be successful. Just wait and see. Don't go out recently. Also, tell your brothers and sisters to stay at home and don't run around or talk nonsense."
Although Sharif told him these things, no one can guarantee that it will succeed until the end.
If it works, he can accept it even if he doesn't have the power of the first deputy director.
Of course, if that doesn't work out, I will still have the authority of the first deputy director at the headquarters.
All we can say is that Roton was sniped when he was about to take over.
Anyway, for me, all I have to do is wait and not get involved in anything else.
Moreover, he did not want to get involved in these matters, which involved Nirmala and the BJP. If something went wrong, he would be in big trouble.
The best thing to do now is to stay out of it.
Even if others guess that I am faking illness, what does it matter? Being in a bad mood is also an illness, so who can say anything?
The next day, Nirmala came to know about Aruda's attitude.
Last night, she had these people go to find Arruda.
Unfortunately, none of these people saw Aruda.
They said that Aruda needed rest and quiet and could not be disturbed.
What is this? Nirmala also asked someone to find out, and all the signs showed that Aruda should be fine, he was just pretending to be sick.
It is not normal to pretend to be sick at this time.
Vides's side has taken away most of his powers, and a normal person would have to jump even if he was sick.
But Aruda did not do anything like that.
I'm afraid Aruda accepted this result.
This should be because Vides convinced Aruda.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
If this is the case, then there is a great possibility that Rodon will get Aruda's power.
Nirmala was still very wary of Rodon.
She had never felt at ease since Rawdon went to the CBI.
If Roton's power continues to expand, it will be much more difficult for the Enforcement Bureau to put pressure on the Central Bureau of Investigation.
She could ignore Vides, but she couldn't ignore Roden's influence.
Don't talk about her, she knows very well that even an old immortal cannot ignore the influence of this kid Rotten.
She quickly conveyed the order to the people she supported at the Central Bureau of Investigation.
So at the third day's meeting, various objections were raised to Vides' proposal three days earlier.
It can be said that there is a lot of opposition.
Even some people from originally neutral factions spoke out and expressed their opposition.
Vides sat in the first seat, listening to these people's various reasons for opposition with a calm expression.
Of course, some people simply oppose without giving any sufficient reasons.
All in all, the conference room is very noisy today.
Luoton sat in his seat and just watched coldly.
This matter was originally directly related to him, but he said nothing.
Because he knew that Vides must have his own plans, and he just had to wait and see the results.
During these three days, Rodon was actually also paying attention to Aruda.
Aruda had not shown up and did not come today.
He claimed that he was recuperating.
In fact, Rodon already knew that Sharif had already dealt with Aruda.
At that time, Vides also mentioned this matter to me, so that I don't have to worry about Aruda.
In order for Aruda not to object, it must be that Vides or Sharif promised Aruda some benefits.
This is a huge benefit, as it will prevent Aruda from showing up this time.
If he were present, he might become the target of many people's calculations.
For example, on Nirmala's side, they definitely want to drag Aruda into the water.
For Aruda, not meeting anyone this time might be a good choice.
Of course, the most important thing is the benefits given to him by Vides and Sharif.
Otherwise, no one would be willing to give up such great power for no reason.
Central Bureau of Investigation, Maharashtra.
Suddenly, a group of people broke into the police station, and the leader of the group immediately showed his ID.
"The General Administration's Inspectorate is performing its duties!"
Those who originally wanted to step forward to stop it were all shocked.
This group of people went directly to the director's office.
The branch chief who succeeded Rawdon was in his office and was a little surprised when the door was suddenly pushed open.
The people below were too unruly. They didn't report or knock on the door? In fact, he didn't know that the people from the Inspection Department didn't give the people below time to report at all. They just barged in directly.
Before the new director could react, the leader showed him a document and said, "Director Sida, you are involved in a job-related crime. Please come back with us for investigation."
The new director, Sida, opened his eyes wide. He didn’t expect these guys wanted to investigate him. Were they going to arrest him?
Sida was no stranger to the guy in front of him.
He is from the headquarters' inspection office, and his main job is to inspect crimes committed by internal personnel.
But he was already the director of the Mabang branch, and he didn't care much about these people.
In addition, his current backers are Nirmala and the BJP.
Even if it was Vides, he wasn't very scared.
So he never thought that there would be a day when he would be investigated.
