Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 447 The Intruder

Two or three years later, after the small town police station had almost purchased all the equipment, the annual donation of US$1 was enough to recruit several new police officers.

Or simply set up a branch very close to the ranch.

It can be said that Chu Xiangqian will be the bread and butter of this branch from now on.

If anyone causes trouble for Chu Xiangqian at this time, the police from the custody branch will definitely rush over to help immediately.

The use of force to win over the small town police and donations to middle schools and elementary schools are a real win over the small town residents with children.

So much so that not only the town's only local newspaper sent people to attend the groundbreaking ceremony, but two newspapers in Santa Barbara County also sent people to cover it.

Chu Xiangqian had no objection to the interview, but refused to take photos.

The three reporters were not satisfied at first, but they saw that the red envelope that Chu Xiangqian quietly gave contained $1.

Suddenly I couldn’t close my mouth with laughter.

Then he told Chu Xiangqian that red envelopes are a custom among Hong Kong people, which means approval and praise with both hands and feet.

After dealing with the principals of the middle school and elementary school, Chu pulled Chief Will and Deputy Chief Gogan forward and said, "Gentlemen, are you interested in building a special shooting training range for the police station?

I can provide funds and land to build it on a hillside on the part of the ranch close to the town. "

Will and Gao Gen understood as soon as they heard that the shooting training range was just an excuse. What Chu Xiangqian wanted was to build a weapons depot on his ranch.

Will looked at his assistant, Gao Gen, who had been his partner for more than ten years.

Seeing him nodding slightly, he said to Chu Qianqian, "Mr. Stark, thank you for your contribution to the security of the town.

The shooting range is fine, but I think we might be able to go a step further and create a training range for National Guard soldiers next to the shooting range.

The cowboys on your ranch can join the National Guard of the town and assist the police station in maintaining law and order when necessary.

At the same time, I hope Simon will agree to accept the appointment of the police department and become a deputy chief like Gorgan and be my deputy. "

Chu Qianqian's eyes lit up, but with such good conditions, Will and Gao Gen must be asking for a lot.

And Gao Gen, the deputy chief, really wants a competitor to appear in the police department?

Bearded Gao Gen saw Chu looking forward and said with a smile, "SIR, the daily tasks in the police station are not only boring and cumbersome, but the salary is also low.

Will and I wish someone could really help us.

And I was almost pissed off by the four bastards at the police station. They were always lazy and didn't say anything, and they often messed up things.

Simon is here to help us again. From now on, things in the north of the town can be completely managed by Simon. "

Chu Qianqian was startled. Was this a hint that Simon and the ranch should manage the security of the ranch?

If this is the case, then whoever dares to go to the ranch to cause trouble in the future will just be arrested.

As for what Gao Gen said, the four police officers in the police station are all useless.

If you think about it carefully, the police officers in most small towns in the United States are recruited by small town residents.

These people are ordinary people, let alone compared with special forces, their military quality is not even comparable to that of ordinary soldiers.

Otherwise, a few ranchers would not have appeared in the news in the past life, and they would have beaten the town police, county police, and state police to the point where they could not be found.

Moreover, the American police care very much about their rights and the scope of their powers and responsibilities.

It's their business, and neither the state police nor the county police can get involved.

Even if people from the FBI come, they will still be pushed back or even driven away.

The locals basically only trust police officers who are locals.

If you are really in trouble, call in the National Guard. After the case is over, no one with any authority will come to help.

Members of the National Guard who were born locally also like to join in the fun.

Not only did he make good friends with the chief and the police, but he was also considered a hero in the eyes of the town residents afterwards.

Of course, the National Guard is under state management, but in practice, as long as the chief constable is willing to appoint a police officer on the spot, that person will be a small town police officer.

After the case is over, the issued police badge is taken away, and the person returns to civilian status.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t say that the police chief of a small American town is a local bully.

The only thing that can restrain him is the votes of the small town.

So the Sheriff only cares about the interests of the town residents.

After Chu Xiangqian thought it through, he actually agreed in his heart to let Simon become the deputy police chief.

As for whether Simon has to go to work at the small town police station every day.

Anyway, just report every day and then go out and do your own thing.

Or set up a police post in the north of the town and find two or three people to assist Simon.

If Simon only received a salary of $1, not even the people in the small town could accuse him of being irresponsible.

After all, everyone knows that this is Sheriff Will's method to win over people. It does not involve the vital interests of the residents. Only the devil can offend Will and the people of Alissa Ranch.

"Can I hire two consultants to the ranch to prevent wild beasts from invading the farm?"

Will and Gao Gen's expressions were overjoyed, and after thinking for a while, they suggested, "SIR, we recommend the establishment of the Solvang Wildlife Conservation Fund.

Alternatively, the Cattle, Sheep and Crops Research Fund. "

After hearing this, Chu Xiangqian felt that this was a good idea. The former hired Will and Gao Gen as escorts for the researchers in and out of the mountains.

One of them is a police chief and the other is a deputy police chief. They are not only familiar with the local environment, but also can be regarded as senior firearms, guides and protection experts.

In the name of research every month, going to the mountains to hunt with Chu Qianqian or the people at the ranch can be regarded as studying and protecting wild animals.

Taking money from a fund is perfectly normal.

As for the cattle, sheep and crop research funds, they were used to win over other famous and powerful public officials in the town.

In the future, other ranchers and farmers will not be able to compete with themselves in this regard.

Chu stretched out his hand and said to Will and Gao Gen, "What do you think of the consultant title with a monthly salary of 200?"

Will and Gao Gen swallowed after hearing this, and waited for Chu Xiangqian to say again, "I think you two are capable enough to be hired by two funds at the same time."

Will and Gao Gen's necks turned red with excitement.

The two funds add up to a monthly salary of US$400, which is already more than twice their salary as a sergeant or deputy sergeant.

Although the police in the United States have great power, their salaries have never been high.

Even a few decades later, the average annual salary of New York police officers will only be [-] to [-].

Will now gets at most 2 a year, while Gao Gen only gets around 1600.

The annual salary given by Chu Xiangqian was US$4800, which was directly three times the annual salary Gao Gen received.

In the future, when he and Will have different opinions on the ranch, Custodian Gao Gen will definitely favor the ranch.

Coupled with the fact that Simon became the deputy chief of the police department, Will shot himself in the foot.

But considering the annual salary of US$4800, Will must compromise.

When the two agreed and watched Chu Qianqian chatting with others, Gao Gen took the initiative and said to Will, "Will, I think we need to remind the people of Los Angeles. We don't care what they do outside our jurisdiction. But If you want to continue transporting contraband through the canyon in the future, you will be in trouble with the entire town.

It’s also difficult for us. "

Will nodded without hesitation. The Los Angeles Horse Team only gave the two of them $200 a month, and they split it equally.

The purpose is to prevent the small town police from patrolling there.

But compared to Chu Xiangqian’s $400 per person, it goes without saying how to choose.

"Call everyone in the evenings these days, and we'll go to the canyon and wait."

Gao Gen nodded, then frowned and asked, "Should we tell Simon, or even Mr. Stark?"

Will thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, we can handle this, otherwise I would feel a little uneasy with so much money.

Once the trouble is resolved, we will both have some confidence when facing Mr. Stark in the future. "

Gao Gen nodded. After taking other people's money, he had to do things for them.

Otherwise, when seeing Chu Xiangqian, he would not be able to speak at all.

Not to mention, after helping solve the troubles at the ranch, I will have reason to look forward to continued salary increases in the future.
-
In the evening, Chu Qianqian and Margaret hugged each other, standing on the balcony on the second floor of the main building of the manor, drinking red wine and looking at the pasture at night.

A sudden warning came from the tit.

When Chu Xiangqian focused his attention on Titmouse, he saw three police cars driving toward the valley from the dirt road on the edge of the pasture.

Instructing Titai to lower his height, he soon saw 6 policemen, each armed with a shotgun or an M14 rifle.

You can tell at a glance that these people are definitely preparing to fight with someone.

Seeing three police cars parked at the bottom of the canyon, Chu Xiangqian quickly understood that it was him who had paid a large price to win over Will and Gao Gen today, which made the two of them start to take the initiative to help solve the troubles of the Los Angeles gangs.

Chu Qianqian smiled and secretly said that he really agreed with what he said. If you give him enough money, you will be God.

Seeing that Chu Qianqian was silent, Margaret looked back at him in confusion and asked, "What's wrong, dear?"

Chu Qianqian thought for a while and said selectively, "Today I hired Sheriff Will and Deputy Commissioner Gao Gen to become consultants for the upcoming Solvang Wildlife Conservation Fund, Cattle, Sheep and Crop Research Fund.

The two earn a monthly salary of US$400. It seems that the ranch's troubles will be solved soon. "

Margaret was stunned for a moment, then realized that Will and Gogan might have known about the trouble at the ranch.

"Are you saying that the Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff knew that there were flour merchants transporting flour through the canyon, but they never paid attention to it?"

Chu nodded forward, "I talked with Simon this afternoon. During the two generations of the pasture, the former owner used a lot of dirty tricks to expand the ranch to 1 acres.

As a result, the relationship with the locals is not good.

Moreover, the previous owner of the ranch was engaged in finance. After inheriting the ranch a few years ago, his thoughts were entirely on the stock market and futures market.

Basically I don’t interact with people in small towns.

If it weren't for the fact that Simon and others' livelihoods depended on the ranch, they would have taken the initiative to defend the ranch.

Some people in the town may have colluded with the mafia that transports flour.

Now when I come here, I hire small town residents to work, and I also win over the rich people and public officials in the small town.

Naturally, the attitude towards me from top to bottom in the town was different.

Moreover, $4800 a year is equal to twice Will’s salary.Perhaps what he and Gao Gen hope most now is that I won’t even catch a cold in the future. "

Margaret giggled at this.

He hugged Chu Qianqian's neck and said with a smile, "I know you are the best."

After saying that, he took the initiative to offer a passionate kiss.

Kissing and kissing, Chu Qianqian picked up Margaret and walked to the bedroom. After a while, he remembered the deep soprano.

But what Chu Xiangqian didn't expect was that a group of more than a dozen mafias had already sneaked into the ranch at night.

At this time, Titmouse was in the canyon more than ten kilometers away, staring at Will and others.

Half an hour later, after Chu Qianqian knocked Margaret down, he was about to hug the girl and let her rest for a while. When he came to the second scene, a gunshot suddenly rang out.

Then there was fierce gunfire, Chu reached forward and pulled the silk sheet, wrapped Margaret, who was screaming in fear, and picked her up and walked to the attic.

The tits also flew towards Banshan Manor as soon as possible.

Go up to the attic and lock the explosion-proof door, unless the entire main building is burned down and the people in the safe house are forced to come out on their own initiative.

Otherwise, if you want to break open this kind of 4-proof explosion-proof steel door, you can't do it with firearms alone.

Chu moved forward to comfort Margaret, walked to the cabinet, and took out a tactical vest and a shotgun.

After checking to make sure there was nothing wrong with the gun, he hung a bullet chain on his body, and then loaded the gun with a click.

He also took a Springfield rifle left by the former rancher, which was a 98K imitation by the Americans.

He pulled the bolt to check the condition of the gun, then opened a bullet box and loaded bullets into the gun.

Finally, he handed the revolver to Margaret and climbed onto the roof.

In these few minutes, the titmouse has also flown back.

Chu Xiangqian looked through the tits and soon saw a dozen people with Thompson submachine guns or shotguns appearing in the manor, sweeping the house next to the main house where Arthur and others lived.

Apparently, it was one of Arthur and the others who noticed someone infiltrating in advance.

Only then did a shot be fired as a warning.

In terms of combat effectiveness, Chu Xiangqian was not worried at all about the four Arthurs, who could not handle these dozen people.

However, the suppression of firepower made it impossible for Arthur and others to kill all the intruders in a short time.

However, even so, the four Arthurs cooperated with each other and easily killed three intruders who wanted to break into the main house.

As long as the main house is protected from being invaded, you can wait for a dozen cowboys to come over for support.

After Chu Xiangqian determined the situation, he raised his gun and shot the intruder from a high position.

In his sight, he saw the man's head exploding like a watermelon.Chu pulled the gun bolt forward, turned the muzzle, and shot the other man's exposed toes again.

"ah,,,,."

The severe pain caused the man to subconsciously hold the soles of his feet.

Not even two seconds after his head was exposed, Chu, who had already pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded it again, stepped forward and shot the man in the head again.

Now the whole manor fell silent.

But Arthur and others understood that someone must be helping them and others.

And this person is basically certain to be Chu Xiangqian.

After missing two people, Chu saw no other intruders in his forward sight.

But this didn't bother him. While letting the tit go around a few times, he took out three bullets and refilled the rifle's ammunition.

The gun was then fired into the wall next to a window.
