Chapter 401 Don’t Shout Long Live
Yu Qiuer brought the food. Ma Leizi and Wu Zhenkui felt embarrassed to eat here, so they packed some things and went outside.
"Eat slowly, no one's snatching it from you. How long will you be staying in Pujiang?"
Yu Qiuer felt a little distressed when she saw Li Shaoyi wolfing down his food. He was so busy at work that he didn't even have time to eat.
"You can stay as long as you want. I also like the colorful world of Pujiang."
Li Shaoyi pulled his fiancée into his arms. Since there was no one in the room, he could do whatever he wanted. Except for the last procedure, they had done everything they needed to do.
"Hurry up and eat."
Yu Qiuer still wanted Li Shaoyi to eat, but Li Shaoyi, who had just eaten a few meatballs, was not very hungry at this moment, so he had to eat something more nutritious next.
If there hadn't been someone knocking on the door, who knows how ridiculous Li Shaoyi would have acted. Although this is a workplace, for some superiors, they can do whatever they want.
Yu Qiuer angrily picked up her clothes and hid in the inner room with her face flushed.
"Come in."
Li Shaoyi tidied himself up a little. He was a thick-skinned man. Besides, the people outside were his men. What could he do if they saw them?
"Sir, our people are reporting that the foreign ministers are meeting in the French Concession Municipal Council to discuss holding talks with us tomorrow. However, the official news will not be received until after 10 pm. They are probably still discussing how to deal with us."
Wang Zihan came in with a briefing, his eyes looking straight ahead, trying not to look at the things around him.
"Got it. Go and urge the people at the Jinling Police Headquarters to send me the documents for the Public Security Brigade as soon as possible. Also, put up notices at the entrances of all the police stations tomorrow, establishing a Public Security Brigade in Pujiang based on the standards of the Peking Public Security Brigade."
Li Shaoyi could only replace some of the people in the Pujiang Police Station, not all of them, so he had to start over from the Public Security Brigade.
"By the way, does the Pujiang Police Department owe any money to the Ministry of Finance?"
Li Shaoyi suddenly thought of another thing. The matter between him and Minister Jia of the Ministry of Finance might make things difficult for him again. There are so many police officers in the Pujiang Police Station now, plus the funding for the Public Security Brigade, he can't afford it.
"The Pujiang Police Department's funding comes from two sources. One is from the Ministry of Finance. For other police departments, funding from the Ministry of Finance is crucial, but for the Pujiang Police Department, it only accounts for 20 percent. The rest comes from funding from the Pujiang Municipal Government, which has already received its full funding."
Wang Zihan followed Li Shaoyi to Pujiang. As Li Shaoyi's secretary, he had to know these things in advance.
This is the advantage of economically developed areas. They can do many things on their own without the central government's funding. The Pujiang Municipal Government can also fully allocate the 20% funding from the central government. But if you refuse it, I'm afraid some people above will be unhappy and even suspect that you want to be independent.
"Notify the police department's finance department to pay this month's salary five days in advance. Let our people take over completely. The previous practice of low-level detectives and captains drinking the blood of their soldiers is now completely prohibited. If anyone submits a resignation, please approve it on my behalf. All of them."
What Li Shaoyi hated most was that some grassroots officers exploited ordinary soldiers. They had no other channels to make money, so they had to eat one or two dollars out of the four dollars an ordinary soldier earned a month.
Life is already difficult for people, and if they are asked to spend one or two dollars on food, their lives will be even more difficult. If Li Shaoyi wants to give the Pujiang Police Station a new look, he has to start from this place.
"Yes."
After explaining these things, Wang Zihan hurried out, but Li Shaoyi did not find any other opportunities afterwards. He had just settled in Pujiang and there were too many things to do. If he wanted to spend some time with his fiancée, he had to squeeze out time from other places.
He thought that after arriving in Pujiang, he would be able to spend more time with his fiancée, but at 10:30 in the evening, Li Shaoyi still asked his men to send Yu Qiuer back.
There are many things to do that night. There will be a meeting with consuls from various countries tomorrow. This is not a simple meeting. If you are not strong enough, then there is no point in holding this meeting.
At dawn tomorrow, more than 40 transport planes will take off from Peiping, and 800 police officers will be airlifted to Pujiang again. These people will become the backbone of the Pujiang Security Brigade.
Originally, Li Shaoyi did not want to transfer too many people from Peiping, but according to the intelligence obtained by the spies, the situation in Pujiang was more complicated than he expected. The Western colonists were unwilling to give up their vested interests, so we have to continue to increase our chips.
The warehouse of the Pujiang Police Department is already full of weapons, so they can just transport people over from Peiping. By tomorrow, the framework of the Public Security Brigade will be established, and then a training camp will be built around Pujiang, copying the Peiping system. As long as two or three months are given, Pujiang will be under the control of Li Shaoyi.
When I woke up the next morning, it was drizzling and the streets were littered with firecracker paper scraps.
Although it was raining, when Li Shaoyi's motorcade set off, the streets were still filled with Pujiang citizens.
"Welcome Commander Li to Pujiang."
"Long live Commander Li."
Hearing this name, Li Shaoyi was inexplicably shocked. Fortunately, it is the Republic of China now. If it were in the feudal society before, just based on the shouts of people like you, maybe our heads would be chopped off.
Even though it is the Republic of China now, this title cannot be used casually. If it makes the old man in Jinling unhappy, it will cause trouble for us in all aspects. How can our organizational system still move forward?
This time, the meeting in Jinling was quite fruitful. The Pujiang Police Station has more than 4,000 staff members. Together with the newly established Public Security Brigade, Li Shaoyi has the ability to expand this staff to nearly 10,000 people.
Before the Battle of Shanghai begins, Li Shaoyi must train at least eight or nine thousand armed forces in Pujiang. By then, no matter whether it is the Japanese Naval Club or the Japanese force coming from the sea, our eight or nine thousand people will be able to withstand it, and there will be enough time for Li Shaoyi to calmly transfer troops from the north.
By then, Li Shaoyi was confident that he could wipe out more than 300,000 Japanese troops in Pujiang, a meat grinder.
It would not have caused such heavy losses to our country's warlords, and would not have been able to effectively strike in the future war of resistance...
