I, Citi Police Chief, pay money

"kindness."

"Then you should learn it. In many social situations, such a hobby is a good means of socializing." James taught Chris earnestly.

"For example, if you want to meet a certain old man, if there is no topic, you chat about cigars. Under normal circumstances, even if you don't like him, you won't offend him. If you like him Now, you can find an opportunity to give him some top-quality cigars in the future, which can effectively increase his impression of you..."

While listening, Chris rolled his eyes inwardly, but it was hard for him to refuse when others kindly taught him, so he could only quickly find an excuse and change the topic.

"Since the chief is retiring, who will take over your position?"

Hearing Chris' inquiry, James stopped his movements, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head.

"I don't know... The person I was planning to succeed is also politically inclined to the Republican Party. He must have no way to take office."

"kindness."

After saying this, the office fell silent. Director James turned his head and looked out the window. Chris lowered his head and learned to smoke a cigar. He took a puff, coughed, and after a few puffs, he gave up learning how to smoke. .

After such a quiet and peaceful atmosphere lasted for a few minutes, it was finally broken by Director James.

"It's almost noon, and I should go home for dinner."

"Okay, Chief."

"Oh, that's right..." When James walked to the door of the room and was about to pull the door out, he seemed to have thought of something, stopped and turned to look at Chris.

"Chris, be careful this year. I'm retired. I'm afraid I won't be able to stop some things that were originally stopped for you."

"Ok."

Chapter 127: Chapter 120 Two Good Mayor, Good Commissioner

The last reminder from James, Chris felt that he understood, so after leaving the New York Police Headquarters, he issued an order on the system. On the same day, several players touched the family's factory and blew it into the sky. Well, the whole family and the management of the factory were in the factory because they wanted to check the accounts of the factory. When the explosion happened, it happened to send the whole family of pedophiles and capitalist dogs to the sky together.

At this point, the pedophile's family also went to the sky to accompany him, and Chris solved another hidden danger... He couldn't help but reflect on himself, was the method he used too cruel and impatient?

After thinking about it for a while, Chris put the doubts aside. Whatever it is, this is in the Great America, and this is their game rule. If they can do it, why can't Chris do it himself?

Of course, the factory bombing will attract investigation, but because of the special time, all the owners of the processing factory are dead, and there is no reason for the victims to be urged. The New York Police Department is not very concerned about the actions, and then the FBI comes out... That’s it, there’s no more, no one knows when they will be able to catch the suspect, and the federal agents in charge of this case don’t know, because there are almost no traces left by the players who did this, and the bomb is homemade , When people are in action, they are not seen by others.

Chris didn't care how these detectives did their investigations at all. They could find something. It was not too much for Chris to call them detectives, so Chris was not worried at all.

However, his calm and calm attitude only lasted until January [-]st, when he disappeared.

January [-]st is a special day, at least for New York City, it is a time worthy of attention. This day is the inauguration speech of the new mayor of New York City, the Democratic Party, Mayor Godfrey.

Of course Chris was concerned about this. He also put down his work and ran to the City Hall Square to lead what the mayor of Godfrey would say... As a result, his speech was nothing new, it was still the same old one, only minor changes in content, such as Talking about rectifying the content of the New York City Police Department made Chris feel a little bad.

Chris' premonition was correct. Not a few days after Mayor Godfrey took office, he attacked the New York City Police Department. Director James quickly retired. Deputy Commissioner Kee, of course, when he takes over the position of director, Deputy Commissioner McKee should be called Chief McKee by the New York police, and he will be the boss of the three major departments of the New York Police Department.

The commissioner of New York City took office, and the commissioner of the New York City Police Department was quickly installed.

There are two top leaders of the New York City Police Department. One is the Chief of Police. The Chief of Police is the highest leader (harmony) of the military police and the top leader of all departments of the police department. The promotion of the Chief of Police also has its own rules and traditions. , The former director went down. Whoever is eligible to run for office has rules. The mayor of New York City has no way to control it directly. He can only choose a candidate for director from among them, and then use his influence to indirectly influence this candidate to come to power.

Under normal circumstances, the candidate selected by the mayor can become the chief of the New York Police Department. As long as the mayor does not act evil, does not cause trouble, and follows the promotion rules of the New York Police Department, the New York Police Department will not deliberately confront the mayor.

The armed police leader (Harmony) is the Commissioner of Police, while the top civilian police leader is the Commissioner.

Different from the police chief who has his own promotion rules, the commissioner is a civilian police officer directly appointed by the mayor, and from the position analysis, the commissioner's status is theoretically higher than that of the police chief. The reason is that the commissioner is placed in the police station by the mayor His eyeliner, spokesperson, and his every move represent the mayor.

Because of the non-required nature of the commissioner's position, the mayor can choose whoever he wants to be the commissioner. Some mayors will appoint retired veteran police officers as commissioners to provide them with professional reference opinions. Some mayors will appoint politicians from the same party as commissioners. Commissioners, in order to reach political deals, and some people appoint businessmen, starting with the funding of the police department, in order to achieve the goal of controlling the New York police.

And the newly appointed Mayor Godfrey is very powerful. As soon as Director McKee took office, he couldn't wait to appoint a middle-aged white man named Dennis as the commissioner of the police department. And who is this Dennis?

He is nothing, Dennis has never been a policeman, nor is he an agent, nor is he an intellectual or expert in any field. He is just an ordinary American citizen, an ordinary person who has no military service experience, and Dennis The reason why he can be a commissioner is because he has a quality that no one else has... He is the younger brother of Mayor Godfrey.

To be honest, when Chris knew the identity and background of the newly appointed commissioner, he immediately knew that something was wrong. The Mayor Godfrey was probably going to mess with the New York Police Department.

Being able to be the mayor of New York City at this time, Mayor Godfrey will never be a fool. The current political environment cannot tolerate the appearance of stupid politicians, and when a recognized smart person does something stupid, That only shows one thing... He can gain huge benefits far beyond your imagination from this stupid thing you think.

For example, the current Mayor Godfrey, after he took office, he quickly redeemed the promises he made to the citizens during the campaign. In 1921, the police funding increased by one-tenth compared with last year, and at the same time, he also gave an extra amount to the New York Police Department. A huge amount of special equipment funds was allocated.

The appropriation has indeed increased, and there are additional special funds, but the citizens don't know that after the special funds were transferred to the account of the New York Police Department, Commissioner Dennis used the reason of strengthening the New York police equipment to buy a new one from a defense equipment company. Purchased a large number of police equipment, and the big boss of this defense equipment company was Mayor Godfrey, and the second boss happened to be called Dennis.

In addition, Commissioner Dennis also believed that the number of police officers in the New York Police Department is not enough, and the police funds in the branch offices are too much, so he swiped a big knife and slashed the annual funds of each branch. The insufficient funds of the police department were directly cut off by one-fifth.

After these two operations, Mayor Godfrey has indeed fulfilled his promise to the New Yorkers and strengthened the allocation of funds to the New York Police Department. That is, the operating funds received by the branch this year are one-fifth less than last year. Immediately, Many directors of the New York branch are complaining and not sending them away. They are all calculating this year's appropriation. After excluding the police salaries in the police station, how much money can be squeezed out of the remaining money to handle major cases.

Chapter 128: Chapter 120 Three bad things?good thing

"This is really, the person who makes the budget plan is a master." Chris looked at the bill in his hand, then turned his head to look at Anne's accountant's calculation, the salary of all police officers in the police station this year and some necessary expenses. Expenditure statement, After making a comparison, I couldn't help shaking my head.

"There is only [-] U.S. dollars left, and this year's life will be very tight."

Fortunately, the Mexican auxiliary police in the [-]th Division have been turned into full-time members and incorporated into the special police team. Shewuren and Patrick were also promoted before Director James retired. Their salaries were all included in the budget, otherwise, This year's [-]th District's funding may be even less, and it may be difficult for them to become regulars and get promoted this year.

Although Commissioner Dennis who just took office is a related household, but I don't know whether he hired a master as his staff, or he himself is a person who is proficient in calculations. Just increase the funds of the General Administration and add an arm.

One minus and one plus, one hit and one pull, who has a loss?Anyway, it's not Commissioner Dennis who earns a lot of money.

Dennis's move was very well calculated. Although he cut off the sub-bureau's funds and offended the sub-bureau police, he won over the headquarters police and strengthened the police force on Manhattan's main island, basically preventing him from encountering "psychic gunmen" The risk of robbery, the newly appointed Director McKee, who used to be the deputy commissioner of the Internal Affairs Bureau, may not be good at investigating cases, but they are professionals in catching crimes committed by the New York police.

It can be said that Commissioner Dennis is a smart man, or that the Mayor of New York, Godfrey, behind him is a seasoned politician, and he has perfect control over his pulling skills.

It can be said that this year's New York police officers, most of them can't be chic anymore.

What is Chris going to do?

Look at it, this matter, Chris thinks about it carefully, it seems that it has little effect on himself, because he is the director himself, and he is not a person who lives on corruption (harmonious) corruption. Without a large amount of police funds, he can embezzle , We are about to bid farewell to the extravagant days. On the contrary, the sixteenth district police station can develop to the present, and Chris has also taken a lot of his own money to fill in the subsidy results.

For Chris, the negative impact of Commissioner Dennis' cuts in branch funds is not that great. On the contrary, this matter is very likely to bring him unexpected benefits.

For example, when the police officers in other New York City precincts can only rely on basic wages and live a life that is only slightly better than that of workers, they have to carefully select and choose the cheapest ones to smoke a pack of cigarettes. Because of the dining car alliance created by the Shewu people, the whole family lived a life of petty bourgeoisie, eating three meals a day, not to mention meat, and the police station would also pay overtime subsidies. Although it was not much, but comparing the two, that kind The sense of superiority and happiness will immediately explode.

Thinking about it this way, what Commissioner Dennis did is a good thing for Chris. As long as this thing lasts for two years, Chris will be able to turn the sixteenth division into his own private army. Last but not least, for this operation, Chris doesn't need to think hard about any strategies, just copy it mechanically.

Thinking of this, Chris himself is happy.

After looking at the two pieces of paper in his office for a while, Chris suddenly thought of something, stood up quickly, opened the door and shouted at the passing Mexican special police.

"Go get the sheriff and the superintendent and come to my office by eleven o'clock. I want a conference."

"Yes, Chief."

After a series of events, Chris' status in the 10th division is not low now. He asked someone to call for a meeting at 30 o'clock, and around [-]:[-], the four of them gathered in Chris's office.

"Look at these two pieces of paper." Chris didn't talk nonsense, and directly handed over the two budget income and expenditure reports to the four of them to read, and the four of them took turns to read it and make a comparison.

The reactions of the four people were different. Some people finished watching with a frown, some looked at it and were about to laugh, and some had complicated expressions, worried and sad.

"Tell me what you think," Chris said.

"There are good and bad, but this year, we have to be more careful in doing things." The speaker is Shewuren. Like Chris, he doesn't understand politics very much, but he understands people. The figures on these two reports, As well as the background of the newly appointed commissioner and director, he guessed something.

"The newly appointed commissioner wants to make money. His reduction of the branch's funds will inevitably force some police officers, even the sheriff and the chief of the branch to make money from below to live. The newly appointed Chief McKee is The Deputy Commissioner of the Internal Affairs Bureau, who specializes in police (harmonious) corruption, embezzlement, and malfeasance, was born, so I am afraid that many police officers will be dismissed this year, and even go to prison.”

"If this is really the case, our life will not be able to pass." Sergeant Regina smacked his mouth, sighing with emotion. His words made Inspector Patrick, who was standing aside, turn his head and stare at him. .

"The police in the sixteenth district don't need to collect black money, and they can live well."

"That's because our chief has made a fortune and established a strategic partnership with the food truck alliance, so our police officers can live such a prosperous life." Sergeant Regina retorted.

"As far as the basic salary of a low-level police officer is concerned, it is more than enough to support myself, but if I want to support my family and want to live a good life, I only need a dead salary, no bonuses and overtime allowances. It’s an accident, it’s no wonder it doesn’t go bankrupt.”

Regina's words silenced Inspector Patrick. Is what he said unreasonable?No, it makes perfect sense.

Comparing the basic salary of the police with that of the workers, it is actually considered high. However, everyone braves the hail of bullets to be a policeman, isn’t it just that they pursue this job? In addition to the basic salary, there are additional benefits, which add up to make the whole family live well. treatment?The action of Commissioner Dennis has greatly reduced the welfare of the bottom police officers of the sub-bureau, and they can only receive basic wages. Under such circumstances, the black gold that already existed will inevitably intensify.

A high salary does not necessarily lead to honesty, but a low salary will inevitably lead to corruption and embezzlement.

"We can't control other branches, we can only manage ourselves." Chris said, he turned his head and looked at Sergeant Isidore who stood silently at the side.

"You used to be a special agent of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. From today onwards, you should take a look at the situation in the bureau and warn those unconscious police officers. If the amount of money is not large, you will be warned for the first time and notified directly for the second time. Me, I fired him."

"clear."

Chapter 129: Land 120 Chapter [-] Surprise

After roughly arranging the internal situation of the sixteenth district police station, Chris didn't care about these messy things, because there were more important things waiting for him to worry about... Iron Blood Manufacturing Company was about to open.

After three or four months of tossing, the Jagged Manufacturing Company, which players have been looking forward to, has opened. Now the main products are Thomson submachine guns, Sten submachine guns, Springfield rifles, Springfield sniper rifles, and M1920 automatic pistols (M1911 pistols).

There are not many types of firearms manufactured by Iron Blood Industry, and there are no bullets with its own intellectual property rights. The weapon factory has only four production lines, corresponding to the company's four types of weapons. However, this does not affect the company's official business. And to the customers.

Most of these customers are players.

How many players did Chris let in? He couldn’t count it himself. Some people came in, and some people left. This number changes every day, and now there are four digits. According to the game strategy, the players who come in are the first Time is to find a job, and what kind of job is there is more convenient than selling arms. Just take some Sten submachine guns to sell outside New York, sell them to gangsters and desperadoes, and basically make a lot of money.

Now that Jagged Works has opened, this business will become more profitable. Now Sten submachine guns can not only be sold to gangsters, but also can be placed in gun shops openly and sold to the American people. It can be said that the market is directly broadened. Dozens of times, how can this not excite the players.

In addition to the Sten submachine gun, the Thompson submachine gun has also been welcomed by customers. To Chris' surprise, the people who came to buy guns, in addition to players, also had NPCs who came to buy weapons. The weapons they mainly bought were Some Thompson submachine guns are purchased one or two at a time, and some are directly wholesaled.

Don’t look at the few weapons they buy, but Thompson submachine guns are expensive. The price of Thompson submachine guns made by Iron Blood Works is [-] dollars for the most basic magazine version, and drums are more expensive. That’s it, Iron Blood Gongzao had prepared [-] submachine guns, but they were sold out within two or three days. The players who ran slower didn't even grab a hair, which was really surprising.

Chris' curiosity made him check the identities of the people who came to buy the Thompson submachine gun, and then found that most of them were FBI agents, most of whom were Prohibition agents, which made Chris subconsciously He thought of An Lusan, the only player currently in the FBI.

Is this the guy who got the feds to come buy guns?

It may be, or it may not be. In short, this is a good thing, and Chris is not going to pursue it any further.

Jagged Works got a good start, not only Chris was happy, but another partner, Ms. Chuntian, also smiled so much that her confidence in the company was greatly increased, and then immediately sent someone to invite Chris to meet at the coffee shop.

"Mr. Chris, here." As soon as Chris opened the door of the coffee shop and entered, he saw Chuntian who was excitedly waving his hands... Her chest could not be blocked by the apron, and it was bouncing up and down because of the waving movement. , Attracting attention, Chris's eyes were naturally attracted to him, but Tian's determination was relatively firm, and he quickly looked away after only two glances.

Chris also walked over with a smile, and just as he walked over, Chuntian grabbed his hands firmly and asked loudly.

"Chris, have you bought the patent you mentioned?"

When Chris suddenly encountered this question, he was still a little dazed, but after thinking for a while, he knew what Chuntian wanted to ask.

"Regarding this matter, I have sent several telegrams to the Mauser Company in Germany to inquire, but so far there has been no reply."

"It's fine if you don't have one. I want to introduce a friend to you. She can help you quickly obtain a patent for the production of Mauser rifles."

In English, he/she has a different pronunciation. Both the speaker and the listener can know the gender he/she refers to. When Chris heard Chuntian say "she", he knew that her friend was a woman. And judging from Chuntian's excitement, I am afraid that this woman is very young, and she is still a good friend who has not seen for a long time.

As Chuntian spoke, he waved to the other side of the coffee shop. A beautiful girl with bright blond hair in a small black coat and peaked cap walked over from the end of Chris' line of sight.

This is a beautiful girl not inferior to Chuntian. She has a bumpy figure, a pretty melon-shaped face with a small nose, and a pair of green and watery eyes. Her lips are like rouge, and her expression and movements reveal a kind of youthful cuteness. From the appearance point of view, it is the blonde girl who often appears in the anime of later generations, and is generally standard in textbooks.

"Mr. Chris, this is my good friend who came to the United States for vacation, Hannah von Erica." Chuntian pulled the blond girl to Chris and introduced him. The girl who was introduced also told Chris Wave and greet him.

"Hello."

"Hello, I'm Chris Levinson." Chris stood up and tried to keep his eyes on Hannah's face instead of wandering around other places. It was very rude, and Chris restrained himself Follow your own desires and let yourself not be rude.

"Miss Springfield, do you think Miss Hannah can help me?" Chris questioned.

"Yes." Haruta nodded affirmatively.

"Hannah's grandfather owned an arsenal in Germany. Her family has some strength in Germany and has a good relationship with the Mauser company. She can help you quickly obtain a patent for the production of Mauser rifles at a lower price."

Chris turned his head to look at Miss Hannah standing aside, who also gave Chris a sweet smile.

"Then what do you want? Miss Hannah." Chris is very calm, there will be no pie in the sky, Hannah is willing to help, she must have conditions.

"I want you to help me prove my abilities to my grandfather." Hannah said in a crisp voice.

"Uh, specifically?"

"I want you to help me produce a gun and then sell it." Hannah said, raising her little hand and clapping twice. Amidst the applause, a man in casual clothes appeared out of nowhere, quickly Go to Chris and put the weapon in your hand on the table.

"This is a weapon I designed. My grandfather thought it was unsalable waste. I want to prove in the United States that my work is not waste."

Chris stared blankly at the automatic rifle on the table, touched his chin and fell into deep thought... Isn't this thing the German stg44 assault rifle in World War II?How did it become Hannah's design, and what about the original designer, Hugo Schmeisser?

Chris looked up at Miss Hannah who was looking forward to her face. Her cute and cute expression immediately made Chris forget this question... Forget it, since it is a parallel world, the designer of the weapon There's a difference, and nothing to be surprised about.

"I agree, Miss Hannah, now let's talk about the patent fee for the production of this weapon..."

Chapter 130: Chapter 120

"Bang bang bang..."

"boom!"

"Squeak..."

In the basement of Griffin’s security stronghold, all kinds of weird sounds are constantly ringing. When an ordinary person walks in, the first reaction is definitely a headache. It’s not why, it’s just because among these sounds, apart from the deafening gunshots and explosions In addition to the sound, there is also the sound of violent steel rubbing... This sound is as sharp and high-pitched as a person holding a hacksaw repeatedly sawing a piece of pig iron.

However, the people in this basement are not ordinary people. For these complex sound attacks, they... well, they also feel very harsh, and even feel a little nauseous, but the excitement makes them ignore this point physiologically. discomfort.
