Chapter 312 Active Xiao Yue is scary
"However, I have a rough plan but I'd like to hear your opinion." Ling Qingyu's sentence brought smiles upon the two generals.
"It depends on your aim. What do you want to do to the leader of the gang? Kill him? Or through justice?" Xiao Yue said. "To be frank, the most suitable method is to ask Sister Tang to assassinate."
Tang Ziyi rolled her eyes. When did she become the tool to act under others' orders? Hmm, though she liked following Ling Qingyu's words.
"Stop. Don't ask me to assassinate. I don't like those businesses." Tang Ziyi raised her hand to stop.
"Tsk…It's a pity." Xiao Yue muttered.
Ling Qingyu palmed her forehead. If she wanted to assassinate, she had spent a ruthless amount of money on the dark net. Killing Boss Hu didn't mean a victory. The second one would pop up.
"Well, I like to go through a judicial process. Don't look at me with those eyes, I'm not a licker. It's really not because of Yang Qingyue." Ling Qingyu rebutted when she noticed pitiful eyes from the two women. "Let's go through the righteous way. If it doesn't work, it's not too late for other methods."
"So, do you want to kill him?" Xiao Yue was still adamant on this point.
Ling Qingyu was about to speak before her eyes shone with understanding. She figured out what Xiao Yue meant.
Even if Ling Qingyu provided piles of evidence against Boss Hu, the result was deemed to be hopeless, as long as the corrupted officials sat on the seats of the justice system.
However, Ling Qingyu could force him to make a move and kill him, in legitimate defense or in an accident. Assassinating would draw unwarranted eyes upon her and she wanted no troubles since she had touched Qin family from the capital recently.
"Little Yueyue means we change our style from being reactive to proactive?" Though Ling Qingyu seemed to ask, her voice sounded certain.
Xiao Yue choked at Ling Qingyu's style of addressing her and gave up refuting after a couple of thoughts. Call her whatever they want. As for Tang Ziyi, hmph, did she ever think this was over?
"You're right. This is the opportunity and the moral reason stands on our side." Xiao Yue pondered and talked. "And exactly as you thought, we have to provoke your enemies into making mistakes. Once he does, no one can save him, not even the Governor of this province."
"In terms of business, I can suppress his real estate industry and other investment projects. As for fighting, I'm sorry I don't have a military background. It'll be left to you, girls." Ling Qingyu said.
"I'll just follow what you two discussed. Don't mind me with strategic interest because I'm not an expert. I can only help at the tactical level." Tang Ziyi added.
"You really forgot who I am? There were endless gangs and dandies during my era. I have to fight against them to stabilize my region." Xiao Yue hugged her waist.
"Oh crap! I almost forgot our Little Yueyue is a fierce warlord." Ling Qingyu remembered Xiao Yue's true identity.
Perhaps, these days Tang Ziyi brought more benefits that she forgot what Xiao Yue possessed on a strategic level. Her chief of staff.
Experience new stories on empire
Ling Qingyu sensed a chill behind her neck and noticed Xiao Yue narrowed her eyes at her. Gulping, she asked: "Okay our mighty Yue should talk, right?"
Tang Ziyi shook her head and waited while Xiao Yue sighed. "While Sister Ling makes a move against him in a business war, our guards, serving as police now, can slowly suppress those gangs, particularly focusing on Tiger gang, who is the current enemy. Don't forget if we target everyone, they might unite against us."
Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi nodded, gesturing Xiao Yue to continue.
Xiao Yue: "I suggest we have to strike where it hurts the most. Cutting off strategy, finance and resources. The ultimate victory in any war is that your opponents can't fight anymore."
"So, apart from the business deals that I rob and suppress, what else?" Ling Qingyu asked.
"Many aspects. The gang's funds came from ordinary people usually. As long as we prohibit the so-called protection fees, it'll hurt their economy," Xiao Yue replied. "Besides once we limit their movements, no more fresh blood would enter their circle. They'll slowly lose troops and money. Which young dandies want to join in if there is no opportunity to make cheap and fast money and no cool moment.
"Second, using our identity, we seize their illegal weapons and drugs. Whatever drives their economy, we hit them. Of course, sex trafficking and prostitution hens are also included. With your money, I presume you can compensate for those poor girls."
Xiao Yue's words almost caused Ling Qingyu to fall. These two generals were indeed good but they never lost grip of her money, Ling Qingyu thought bitterly.
Ignoring Ling Qingyu's reaction, Xiao Yue continued. "Once we manage to encircle from various aspects, the third stage comes. Isolation. Make the entire group on edge that they must do something."
"Finally, force them to jump over the wall under our watch." Tang Ziyi concluded.
"Yes." Xiao Yue nodded. "The important point is to lead the enemy precisely to where we want. Otherwise, the table is overturned very early and we have to input more energy and waste time."
"What about those politicians and big families who are connected with him?" Ling Qingyu asked.
"That's why I said the process must be gradual, not so sudden that we involve other parties. Make them think it's going to be a tug of war while we maintain advantage." Xiao Yue answered. "The collective loose sand will no longer bring benefits. We can kill them or throw them in jail. No one will protect someone who has no values.
Once the so-called Boss Hu lost the benefits he could've sent to others, the game is finished."
Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi hissed, frightened of how Xiao Yue's mind worked so meticulously. It wasn't that Ling Qingyu couldn't come up with similar ideas but Xiao Yue's strategic vision couldn't be underestimated and filled in some gaps Ling Qingyu had.
The two exchanged weird glances, measuring silently, who was more ruthless. The hidden communication spectrum went unnoticed, as Xiao Yue tried to simulate various scenarios in her mind.
Perhaps, Athena, who was listening on the sideline, became aware of Xiao Yue's trouble, so, she provided help. "Aunt Xiao, I can help you simulate to perfect your plans. Why don't you try it?"
Xiao Yue looked confused. She knew what Athena meant but how can this AI niece help? Tang Ziyi stepped up. "Yes, Xiao Yue. I forgot Athena's simulation. You can try to play various scenarios with Athena's help.
I won't explain more since it'll only confuse you, why don't you try it yourself."
Ling Qingyu felt her shoulders burdened with less weight. She should delegate playing chess games to Xiao Yue in the coming days.
Poor Xiao Yue didn't know that Ling Qingyu would throw away so many works in the future. She was too enthusiastic simulating to her heart's content with Athena's support.
After encouraging her love, Tang Ziyi, whose expertise was different, monitored the guards' mission progress.
Ling Qingyu sighed and thought new chapters waited ahead. She must advance her original plan.
