Seeing Sun Chonggu grinning at him, Lu Ming was speechless for a moment.
This is the Longbei District Commissioner's Office.
Ren Zhonglin's management of Longbei District was still the same as that of the province, with offices directly set up and officials appointed at each level.
Sun Chonggu was already a Daoyin of Fengxiang Road. Fengxiang Road was the most important road in Longbei adjacent to Shengjing.
Sun Chonggu's previous positions were usually not small, but they were all false positions. Now is his first real and powerful position.
Fengxiang Dao Daoyin has been selected from Sun faction officials. His father Sun Gan probably wanted to place his beloved son here for a long time, but he was always afraid that he would not be able to convince the public.
Sun Chonggu worked closely with the Heishan Department in Wanzhou Road, and the Heishan Department gave excellent reviews.
And also smashed Sun Pojun's rebellion conspiracy.
Sun Gan then proudly elected his son as Daoyin of Fengxiang Dao.
This is also a milestone event for Sun Chonggu, which means that his position as the next generation successor of the Sun faction is becoming more and more stable.
Looking at Lu Ming now, he was extremely happy and said with a smile: "Brother, I heard you are here, I have to come!"
Lu Ming was helpless. He didn't know why this guy felt that he had become his lucky star. Although he had not harmed him, he did not treat him well. Those excellent comments were just to deceive Sun Gan. To alienate Sun Pojun.
It is true that Sun Gan is a very scary old man, but he also has his own weaknesses. He likes to listen to good things about his son. He may know deep down in his heart that his son is not a talented person who can take over, but he still holds on to the hope of just in case. , Therefore, sometimes he will listen to the praise from the outside world seriously even though he knows it is false.
If Sun Chonggu didn't change much, he really took over. Once Sun Gan passed away, I was afraid that the Sun faction would immediately fall apart and cease to exist.
Therefore, Ren Zhonglin was afraid that Sun Chonggu would be promoted step by step, but he would also be happy to see the success.
Lu Ming was thinking wildly and forced a smile to Sun Chonggu.
Sun Chong's eyebrows were beaming and he was about to continue talking when a long "cough" sound of phlegm came from beside him.
The one who made the strange noise was a skinny little old man.
It is the owner of this office, Commissioner Li Tan.
The little old man who seems to have an eccentric personality has been working here for more than ten years.
The commissioner of the Longbei District Office in Shengjing was, in a sense, more important than the positions of various Taoists in Longbei. Li Tan was an absolute confidant of Governor Ren Zhonglin.
Li Tan has always had a good reputation and is an upright person, but he is very conservative and has a rather eccentric personality.
He seemed a little at a loss regarding the current new situation in Shengjing. For example, when dealing with the conflict between Longbei patrol officers and Anshan construction workers, it almost caused a bigger dispute. In the end, it was only through the mediation of Westerners that it ended peacefully.
He made a strange noise, and Sun Chonggu chuckled, "Uncle Li, okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore, but my brother is really an expert in law. He is a Montenegrin, and he has a good reputation. If he opens his mouth and doesn't talk about the law, then it's not good." Being jailed?”
Lu Ming was helpless. If he didn't know that this guy was just a fool, just by saying this, he would have offended himself and the entire Black Mountain Department.
He looked at Li Tan and asked, "Commissioner Li, do you have any legal questions? There is a good law firm in the concession area."
Li Tan waved his hand, "Brother, it's not a legal issue. Chonggu often paints in lakes and lakes. I made a mistake. However, you're welcome! Recently, there has been a lot of robberies in Longbei District. Our patrol room suspects that the thieves are from Anshan. The Anshan thieves are famous for being powerful. However, no matter how hard we set up defenses, we can't catch those thieves. Now people are panicking. Moreover, thefts are starting to happen to wealthy families! The more trouble they get, the worse they get. How can this be surprising? Are you looking at the public security in Longbei District?"
Lu Ming nodded and listened silently.
Li Tan sighed, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and suddenly stared at Lu Ming, "Brother, do you think there will be any of their traitors in our patrol room?"
"It's possible." Lu Ming pondered, "But some snitches are really powerful, and it's not like the patrols can find their traces."
Sun Chonggu said from the side: "Why is it not a legal issue? Uncle Li, if you want to tell Chonggu, it was originally done by Anshan people, so there is no need to catch thieves to take away the dirt. Let's arrest a group of Anshan construction workers. As for the How can we impose a sentence and how can we obtain evidence? Aren't they just legal issues? Isn't there anything I can do, Brother Zhang? Punish a few Anshan people to serve as a warning to others. Aren't they still being honest?"
Li Tan pondered and nodded: "It can't be said that it's not a solution!"
Sun Chonggu was very proud and waved his folding fan.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "How about this? There are a few experienced agents in the patrol room in the Black Mountain Concession. Let them come over first to have a look and form a special office?"
Li Tan remained silent.
Lu Ming knew that Sun Chonggu's idea was in line with Li Tan's thoughts. It seemed that he had not handled the conflict between Anshan construction workers and Longbei patrols well recently, which had caused the Longbei patrols to suffer, and Li Tan felt sad. They got angry because they wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble for the Anshan people.
If you ask yourself, it's really not a thieves issue, it's really a legal issue. See how you arrest the Anshan people and turn them into ironclads, so that they can't be overturned even if they appeal to the Central District Court.
It seems that sometimes the reputation of an official is completely different when viewed from afar and viewed up close.
For example, if he really captured a few Anshan people and turned them into iron eucalyptus, Li Tan would naturally have done another great thing in the eyes of the people in Longbei District.
After all, in the eyes of Longbei people, they despise the Anshan people, and they are more willing to believe that the recent banditry is caused by the inferior Anshan people.
Come and try it quickly. 】
Anshan is the poorest province among the four northern provinces, and in remote areas, it is even more unimaginably poor. A family of four only has one pair of pants.
In Shengjing, Anshan labor is the cheapest. People in the other three provinces will more or less look at Anshan people with colored glasses.
If something is lost in a store, anyone from Anshan will be the first to be suspected.
But Lu Ming actually hates regional people the most, especially those who discriminate against poor areas.
"If you are willing to form a special team, we are willing to provide all help. If not, I'm afraid I won't be able to help. I'm sorry, Commissioner Li!" Lu Ming winked at Sun Chonggu.
Sun Chonggu chuckled: "Uncle Li, let's set up a special team? It's good to have solid evidence to catch the thief!" As he spoke, he winked at Lu Ming, really looking at this special team Become your true friend.
Li Tan nodded: "Okay, then I'll listen to you, young people, with new ideas, a special group, okay, let's set up a special group."
"Brother Zhang, how many soldiers do you have?" Sun Chonggu asked excitedly when he saw that the matter was over.
Lu Ming glanced at Li Tan and said to Sun Chonggu: "The armed military and police brigade is almost a battalion. In addition, I have an engineer brigade in my hand. However, engineers are actually workers under militarized management. Really If we need to mobilize combat forces, we only need a thousand or so people, which is about two battalions. Together, there are about three battalions." He asked again: "What are you doing?"
Sun Chonggu had already raised his thumb and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, look, what am I talking about? My brother can't lie to me, can he? Are you going to share your heart and soul with me?"
Li Tan looked a little embarrassed. He picked up the tea cup and drank water, not bothering to pay attention to this second generation ancestor.
Sun Chonggu smiled and said to Lu Ming: "Brother, there's nothing else to do. I'm just thinking about how many soldiers we have in the event of a war with the Haixi people in Shengjing."
Lu Ming had no choice but to call him more and more affectionate.
However, even Li Tan didn't think there was anything wrong with him calling him "brother."
After all, he was notorious as the leader of the secret police. At most, others would think that he was tender-faced and would not think that he was really in his early twenties.
Compared with himself, Sun Chonggu was even more of a child, so he should call himself "brother".
"Brother, what do you think if we set up a trap and kill the Haixi people's Jintan Club for a vote?" Sun Chonggu said enthusiastically.
As a Dao Yin, the Dao Guard Brigade was also under his command. For the first time, he really had a lot of authority, and many things were considered trivial.
Moreover, it is obvious that because of his experience on Wanzhou Road, he and Lu Ming led troops to suppress the bandits. The bandits were all supported by the Haixi people, which was almost equivalent to fighting the Haixi people. This made the Haixi people become enemies in his eyes. .
Lu Ming smiled: "It can be studied."
Li Tan was too lazy to pay attention to them, drinking tea with a look of helplessness in his eyes.
