Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

Director Chen was most afraid that Li Shaoyi was a blockhead who would exaggerate everything he did, especially not giving him face in front of others. If that happened, he, as the director of the General Administration, would be incompetent.

After what happened at the East District Police Station, the people at the Police Headquarters have realized that when Li Shaoyi gets angry, he won't care about anyone, and you just can't do anything about him.

In this era, if you have a strong fist, you have the right to speak. How is the combat effectiveness of the East District Police Station? Chief Chen is very clear about it, but it was taken down in one morning, and under the noses of foreigners. This guy said he wanted to be the deputy chief, but would Lu Buhu dare to go back?

After arriving in the box, Li Shaoyi was very attentive in serving tea and water. After the food came up, he sat at the bottom and honestly poured wine for Director Chen.

Wang Anmin rubbed his eyes several times, wondering if he had seen the wrong person. Given the Li Shaoyi he knew, how could he do such a thing? Was everything he had seen before fake?

"Director Chen, please have another drink, another one."

After a while, Director Chen had already taken half a pound of medicine. He always felt that something was wrong with Li Shaoyi.

"Alright, alright, we've had quite a few drinks today. We'll all be working in the same government office from now on, so are you still worried about not having the chance to drink? If there's anything you need, just tell us. We're all family, so we'll help wherever we can."

Director Chen is not a fool. He knows that Li Shaoyi is trying to please him so much, so he must have something to ask for.

Director Chen felt very satisfied that the headlines of all the newspapers in Beijing were asking him for help. At least his vanity was fulfilled.

"I heard that the Bureau Commander likes some antique calligraphy and paintings. I happened to have some, but I don't know much about these things, so please appreciate them for me."

While Li Shaoyi was speaking, Tang Guoping and Ma Leizi pulled out a painting. Director Chen really liked these things, and of course what he liked most was the added value of these things.

If you carry a box of silver dollars to give as a gift, people outside probably know about it, but if you find a box containing calligraphy and paintings, do you know how much this calligraphy and painting is worth?

Paintings by Monk Ju Ran!

Director Chen knew this very well, and he could tell at a glance that this was an authentic work, a piece of work that could be opened wide.

The market value is no less than 20,000 yuan!

Even if the director of the General Administration has a higher vision, a painting like this can open the door.

"You want to take over the East District Police Station, right?"

Director Chen is indeed a veteran in the officialdom. Just by looking at this painting, he knows what Li Shaoyi wants to do.

Nowadays, corruption is rampant in the streets of Beijing. Not to mention the director of the General Police Department, even a small patrolman patrolling the streets will take two apples away when passing by a fruit stall.

"You have a keen eye for talent! If I were to become the Chief of the East District Police Station, I would honor you with all my dues. They never gave me a cent before."

What Li Shaoyi said was not wrong. In the past, the East District Police Station did not take the Police Headquarters seriously at all. It was almost two independent units with this side. Anyway, their finances are not just relying on you, but also a lot of money provided by foreigners.

Director Chen weighed it in his mind. Although Li Shaoyi's power was growing, it was not good for him and he should be restricted. But what he said just now was also correct. In the past, the East District Police Station had not given him any respect. If Li Shaoyi took this position, regardless of how much the respect would be, at least the General Administration would issue a notice and Li Shaoyi would not be able to turn a blind eye as before. This could also be considered an expansion of power.

"My appointment alone is useless. You should understand that the East District Police Station is different from other places. My orders are easy to sign, but if the consuls of various countries don't agree, your position will be unstable."

After hearing what Director Chen said, there was basically no way to stop it, but he was afraid that Li Shaoyi didn't have the nerve to do it.

"Don't worry, Director Chen, I can get this done. I'll definitely reward you handsomely after it's done."

What Li Shaoyi's system wanted was organization. This organization only required the National Government's letter of appointment plus the actual number of people, and then the system would recognize it. As for the situation on the foreign side, the system did not seem to have given any special instructions.

If all the more than 2,000 people in the East District Police Station were under Li Shaoyi's charge, plus the people in the Railway Station Police Station, Li Shaoyi's actual organization might reach two regiments. By then, he wouldn't be able to do whatever he wanted in Peiping, but as long as he didn't provoke the 29th Army, he wouldn't be afraid of anyone.

"Young people are full of energy and initiative. The future depends on you."

Director Chen picked up the glass with a smile, and Li Shaoyi quickly clinked glasses with him, and the matter was settled.

"I have something else to tell you. Before I became a patrolman, I had good relationships with several foreign businessmen and I had a batch of arms. Unfortunately, my connections are stuck here, and I can't sell them at all. If you have any connections, you can take the majority and I'll take the smaller share, so we can both make some money and spend it."

Li Shaoyi knew that just saying this was not very useful. He would have to cooperate well with Director Chen for a long time. They must have common interests for this to last.

"You have munitions?"

Director Chen looked at Li Shaoyi in surprise, but soon felt relieved when he thought of the weapons under Li Shaoyi's command. If he didn't know foreign merchants, how could he have bought so many arms? These days, arms are in short supply in the market. As long as you have the goods, why worry about not being able to sell them?

This was clearly a way to make money together. Director Chen was originally a little dissatisfied with Li Shaoyi's rapid expansion, but now that he saw that Li Shaoyi was so sensible, he felt much more relieved.

"I can't say how much more it is, but I can handle tens of thousands of dollars worth of goods a month, and 20% of the profit goes to you."

Director Chen is very clear about the profits from arms trade. If calculated at 50,000 yuan a month, the profit is at least 15,000 yuan. Twenty percent of that is 3,000 yuan, which is the monthly profit.

"Okay, okay. I'll have Secretary Hong contact you later. He knows all the channels I have."

Director Chen's face was full of smiles. With an extra three thousand dollars a month, he could do anything.

"Then you still have to give instructions. I'm only responsible for supplying the goods. You can handle the payment..."

Li Shaoyi's words made Director Chen even more satisfied. Li Shaoyi expressed his attitude that he would never snatch your channels. He would hand over the goods to your subordinates and would not take care of the rest.

"Let Xiao Hong do it all, let's drink..."

Wang Anmin, standing beside him, was completely dumbfounded. How could this be done? Would this guy still have someone he couldn't curry favor with in Peking?
