Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 312 The Richest Man Discusses Luoton

"I saw the news. It's Roton, right? He's not just the deputy inspector general, he's also in charge of all inspection work, which is equivalent to an inspector general." Adani said with a smile.

He was certainly well-informed and was able to obtain more information that was not mentioned in the news reports.

It is known that Rawdon is acting as the Inspector General in his capacity as First Deputy Inspector General.

To be honest, he was a little surprised to hear that Luoton was transferred to Gujarat. It was a bit sudden.

He and Rotten have some personal acquaintance and their relationship is pretty good.

He must make friends with young people with potential like Rotun.

He is a businessman, he needs to invest and have vision.

He still believes in his own vision.

Just like his relationship with Laoxian.

He knew Lao Sen a long time ago. At that time, Lao Sen was not the Chief Minister, but just an officer of the BJP in Gujarat.

Because he and Laoxian are both from Gujarat and are fellow villagers, this relationship was established.

When his fellow villagers need some money, he always donates generously.

With financial support, Laoxian can basically get things done, and do it very well.

This won the recognition and favor of the bigwigs in the People's Party, and Laoxian's status rose sharply afterwards.

He has been the Chief Minister of Gujarat since 2001, and it has been twelve years till now.

One can imagine the status of Laoxian here, which is deeply rooted.

Kupang is also the most important state for the BJP.

He will soon become the BJP's candidate for prime minister in 2014, and it can be said that he is the number one in the BJP.

The Congress Party's candidate for the 2014 prime ministerial election will be Rahul Gandhi.

This is a big man with a distinguished background.

Rahul Gandhi is the son of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and the heir to the Gandhi family. His biological mother, Sonia Gandhi, is currently the president of the Congress Party.

After Rajiv was assassinated, the Congress Party originally wanted to let his wife Sonia take over and compete for the prime ministerial position.

However, Sonia was a foreigner who married into India, so there was controversy when she ran for prime minister.

So Sonia only served as the president of the Congress Party, while the post of Prime Minister was held by Manmohan Singh.

Rahul has been appointed as the vice-president of the Congress party, a move that clears the way for his bid for prime ministership in 2014.

Because Manmohan has served two terms and is getting old, he wants to retire.

So Rahul will immediately become the second-in-command of the Congress party and will be the natural candidate to contest for the highest power.

Laoxian is the most successful investment in Adani’s life.

The investment in Laoxian brought him huge returns.

Since Laoxian served as the Chief Minister of Kupang for more than ten years, Adani naturally acquired huge wealth in the local area.

Now he is also very optimistic about Roton.

Although Luoton is a national civil servant, he is not very different from politicians like Laoxian.

The power in Luoton's hands is still astonishing.

Especially since Rotun is so young, as long as he is given time, his status in the future will be even higher.

He is in business, and his business will spread all over the country.

It requires connections with politicians, but also stable relationships like those in the civil service system.

In fact, his connections in the civil service system were not limited to Rotun, but there was only one other person whose connections were as amazing as Rotun's.

"What do you think?" asked the old immortal.

In private, their relationship is extremely close, and they seem to speak casually, after all, they have been friends for decades.

Lao Xian does not have the airs of a chief minister, and Adani does not have the aura of the boss of the Adani Group.

Adani understood what the old immortal was asking.

As the boss of a large group, in addition to having a keen sense of business, you also need to have corresponding sensitivity in politics.

If you don't have a certain level of political sensitivity, you won't be able to do big business.

“Maybe the Congress wants to use Rodon to cause trouble for us,” said Adani.

"He's just a young man. Is the Congress Party really confident that letting him come will achieve the desired effect?" said the old immortal.

"Don't underestimate Rodon," Adani said. "I've studied his experience, and he's truly exceptional, a rare talent among young people. As I'm sure you know, Rodon came from a poor family in the Dharavi slums, and his achievements are entirely his own, step by step."

"I take back what I said earlier." The old immortal smiled slightly and said, "I underestimated this young man. He helped us a lot some time ago and put many people from the Congress Party in jail."

The old immortal actually has a good impression of Rotun.

Because he had seen all the cases that Rotun had handled in the CBI before.

So this impression score must be quite high, at least above the passing line.

"However, precisely because he is not simple, his visit to Gujarat this time may cause us great trouble." The old immortal frowned slightly when he said this.

Deep down, he did not underestimate Rotun.

"Yes, there will be big trouble, I think so too," Adani agreed.

"I know you have some friendship with him. Why don't you go find him sometime and find out what he has to say?" asked the old immortal.

"That's no problem," Adani said with a smile. "I'll meet him in the next two days. But I don't think his coming this time is necessarily a bad thing for us."

"Oh?" The old immortal showed some interest. "Tell me about it."

Although he thought that Rotun's coming would bring a lot of trouble, he had been here for so many years and had built a huge network of relationships that was very solid. Even if Rotun caused some trouble, he believed that he could handle it.

Of course, it would be best if we could minimize these troubles.

Now that Adani actually said it might not be a bad thing, he became even more interested. He knew Adani was not the kind of person who made empty promises, so he believed that what he said was well thought out.

It's really unexpected that a bad thing turns into a good thing.

Anyway, he hasn't thought that Rotun's coming this time is a good thing.

It would be good if we could minimize the impact.

good thing?

I really haven’t thought about it.

"In fact, we cannot regard Rodon as someone from the Congress Party," said Adani.

This made the old immortal ponder for a moment, and he quickly understood: "I understand what you mean. Previously, many media outlets on the Congress side were reporting that Luo Dun was on our side, but I didn't expect that Luo Dun would be sent to our side in the blink of an eye. Luo Dun is not one of ours, nor is he on the Congress side."

"That's right, I think so," Adani said. "Judging from what Roden has done so far, he's a man who hates evil and will not show mercy to anyone who offends him. He's a typical civil servant, performing his duties impartially."

"Haha~ That's right, he's considered a neutral party. Not long ago, he drew quite a few angry comments from people in Delhi," the old immortal said with a hearty laugh. "In my opinion, it's a good thing they were arrested. Some people are truly too lawless. Someone needs to teach them a lesson. Do they really think they can do whatever they want without taking any responsibility?"

"But there are still too few people like Rawdon, and he can still handle too little," Adani smiled. "So, I think Rawdon's coming here will be a good opportunity to reorganize the police system, just like he did in Delhi."

Adani's words made the old immortal frown and he did not answer immediately.

Adani knew that the old immortal was thinking and had some concerns.

He didn't speak in a hurry, waiting for the old immortal to think it over.

"The Gujarat police are now considered ours." After a while, the old immortal said, "If we let Luo Dun clean up the mess, we will lose a lot of people and our prestige will be greatly affected. This is the Congress Party's goal, to attack us."

"It may be disadvantageous for us in the short term, but in the long run, as long as it is handled properly, it will be a good thing," Adani said.

"Come on, don't beat around the bush, let's get to the point." The old immortal knew that Adani must have a plan in mind, but he just hadn't said it yet. "This time, I really haven't given much thought to the impact of Luo Dun coming here."

"You are too busy with too many things to do. How can you have the time to think deeply about these things?" Adani said with a smile.

In his opinion, if the old immortal calmed down and thought about Luo Dun's affairs, he would definitely come up with the same idea as him.

But the old man is the chief minister, in charge of every aspect of the state, and there are too many things to do.

He knew that the old immortal was paying attention to Rotun's arrival.

This is because Luoton is quite famous. If someone else were to serve as the deputy inspector general, the old immortal would probably not care.

For him as the Chief Minister, a Deputy Inspector General cannot have any impact on the overall situation.

Unless the Federal Ministry of the Interior replaces the Chief of Police in Kupang, the old immortal will really take it seriously.

Luo Dun came here this time to reorganize the police system. In Lao Xian's opinion, it was just to get rid of some people within the police.

This will indeed lead to the elimination of some of the People's Party's members within the police system, but the impact will not be too great.

Because the People's Party has infiltrated the local police very deeply, it is not enough to just get rid of a few police insiders.

Just remove a few and replace them later. How big of an impact can it have?
Therefore, the old immortal didn't care too much about Rotun's arrival.

This loss is still limited for them.

"Don't you think the police are a bit too corrupt now?" Adani asked.

"You know what the police are like. They are all like this. You can't ask them to do the same as Roton, right? It's unrealistic." said the old immortal.

"No, that's not what I meant." Adani nodded slightly. "Take the port economic zone for example. I've heard that many new companies and enterprises have been extorted by the local police station for large entry fees. This is just the entry fee. There are also various security fees, police fees, and other expenses. These miscellaneous expenses add up and eat up a lot of these companies' profits. The police, relying on their good relationship with the government, are becoming more and more unscrupulous. If this continues in the long run, it will not be good for your economic development and reforms. It will worsen the business environment. Of course, even if it is like this now, it is better than the environment in other states. But what if it continues?"

Adani's words silenced the old immortal.

What he is most proud of is that during his tenure, the economy of Kupang developed rapidly, and the economic growth rate basically ranked first, which raised the economic status of Kupang to the forefront among all states.

It can be said that economic development is his greatest political achievement and business card, and it is what everyone talks about the most.

If there is a problem in this area, it will shake his foundation.

This is absolutely not allowed.

Of course he knew about the various problems on the police side, but when he faced these things, he usually asked his subordinates to turn a blind eye.

Because the police are now the government's minions, they need the police as thugs to do the dirty work.

In this case, if the police want to get some benefits, the government will naturally not interfere.

If it were other states, especially some where the relationship between the state government and the police is not good, then there would be all kinds of quarrels between the two sides. If one side has any problems, the other side will definitely make trouble.

The police in Kupang are now indeed obedient and follow the government's orders, which makes it difficult for the government to handle some things.

Because the other party is really cooperative and cooperates with the government on many things.

It must have been good at the beginning, but as time went by, the people on the police side became greedy and unscrupulous.

What Adani said is definitely correct. In fact, Laoxian has also received some relevant reports.

If it continues to develop, it will really affect the business environment.

"It's not easy for us to take action, after all, the relationships involved are complicated. I'm not afraid to say it directly, there are also many people within the BJP who are involved. Since we are worried, let outsiders clean it up," said Adani.

The old immortal knew that Adani was talking about Rodon.

"If it were anyone else, they really wouldn't be able to do this." Now that Adani had opened up, he continued, "Rodun now has the support of the Federal Ministry of the Interior. Plus, he's a very hard-nosed person, making him the perfect fit for this. We can use him to clean out some of the scum within the police system. This will at least serve as a deterrent, making others back off. I think this will be very helpful in improving the business environment. In the future, the blame will be borne by others, and it has nothing to do with us. Let them blame Rodun and the Congress Party; it's all their fault."

"Haha~~" the old immortal laughed and said, "Most people will probably curse the National Congress Party. This kid Luo Dun is just an executor. He is just following orders."

"So, I think I can discuss this privately with Roden," Adani said. "He's no fool. He must know why the Congress sent him here. Even if he hates evil, he should know that offending people everywhere is pointless. As long as he limits the scope of his attacks, I think it will be beneficial for both of us."

"I'm really afraid that he is the kind of stubborn person who cannot be persuaded. That would be troublesome," said the old immortal.

"I've met him before and know him quite well," Adani said with a smile. "He's definitely not the type of young man to dwell on trivial matters. I believe I can convince him. This would be good for all of us, a win-win situation. Who would refuse that, right?"

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you." The old immortal sighed and said, "As long as he is willing to cooperate, he will also receive my goodwill in the future in Gubang. However, you don't have to make a big fuss about this. Just do it privately."

The Truth News quickly reported the news about Fang Ge.

Regarding the fact that his land was targeted and the police did not take any action, various evidences were published in the newspapers, basically pointing directly to the fact that the Ahmedabad Police Chief Hemoya Sarkar was behind it.
