My courtyard shelter

At 5:30, the meeting officially began.

Chief Ji first summarized everyone's work in the past three days.

Xu Dong was praised as he could not find any mistakes. As for the others, they were either sloppy or had poor work ability and few results.

"Okay, everyone should learn from the lesson seriously. This will be good for you to really take up your job in the future. I have said all. It is up to you whether you listen or not."

"Chief, I will definitely listen." Everyone answered in unison.

As for how sincere they were, it was unknown.

Chief Ji knocked on the table, waited for everyone to quiet down, and then asked other police officers in the bureau to join the meeting. In an instant, the small meeting room was full of people.

"Since everyone is here, I will start to introduce the task."

Everyone sat upright.

"Tomorrow is the 5th, and until the 15th, we have only one task, which is to guard the coastline of Jiaozhou Bay, from Dagu River in the west to Longhai Road in the east, and don't let anyone go ashore."

"Director, we don't have a patrol boat."

"We don't have to worry about things on the sea, just guard the coastline." Director Ji waved his hand.

Someone complained: "This section of the coastline is about five kilometers long, do we have enough manpower?"

"I asked Xiao Xu and others to expand the patrol team. At present, more than 1,500 people have been recruited. There is definitely enough manpower."

Among these people, almost one-third were recruited by Xu Dong. When he proposed to pay out of his own pocket, Director Ji gritted his teeth and accepted all of them, and did not let Xu Dong pay.

"That's no problem."

The next step is to assign specific tasks, starting with Xu Dong and his eight support personnel.

The five-kilometer coastline is divided into four sections, with two people in a group, and each group is responsible for a section.

After the assignment, Director Ji changed the subject and specifically instructed Xu Dong:

"Xiao Xu, I'll leave the coastline to you. You'll be the squad leader, and the other three teams will follow your command."

"Director, you should take charge yourself. I'm inexperienced. If something goes wrong, it'll be terrible." Xu Dong quickly declined.

Director Ji shook his head: "I have other tasks here. Since it's a big inspection, it's not as simple as you think."

Defending the coastline is the simplest task, so Director Ji gave it all to Xu Dong and others. The bureau has more difficult tasks.

There was no room for refusal, so Xu Dong could only agree.

"Okay, there's nothing for you to do next. You guys go out and discuss tomorrow's work arrangements."

"Yes." The eight people left the meeting room one after another.

Finding a small room, Xu Dong made a simple arrangement of the work. He evenly distributed the patrol team of nearly 1,600 people to four groups, with about 400 people in each group.

As for the specific inspection plan, there is nothing much to say. Director Ji has just explained that it must be implemented according to the standard of one post every ten meters and two people per post.

"Xiao Meng, Xiao Hu, you two are girls, so you don't have to be responsible for the night shift, all work the day shift!"

"Thank you, squad leader."

It took a little effort for Xu Dong to quickly arrange the shifts. As the squad leader, he arranged all night shifts for himself.

After all, the visibility is good and the tasks are light during the day; it is much more troublesome at night, not only the temperature is low, but also more likely to encounter danger.

...

The next morning, Xu Dong set off with a mighty 800 people, each holding a long stick in his hand.

It is a fool's job to fight at close range right away.

After all, Xu Dong patrolled along the coastline and went back. After all, he had to work the night shift at night and needed to conserve his energy.

Nothing happened during the first day.

At night, the entire coastline almost became a long dragon.

"Xiao Zhang, I'll leave Group 1 to you for now. Call me anytime if there's anything. I'll go to other groups." Xu Dong handed him a few cigarettes.

"Don't worry, Brother Xu."

Xiao Zhang looked excited. It was the first time for him to manage so many people.

After Xu Dong finished speaking, he rode an electric bike and began to patrol back and forth along the coastline. The electric bike was just obtained from Director Ji in the morning. The price was a pack of cigarettes.

If he relied purely on walking, he would not be able to patrol many times even if he was exhausted.

If he saw someone dozing off on the road, he would honk the horn to remind them. The subsidy for the night shift is twice that of the day shift, and this money should not be wasted.

When he came to the Dagu River, Xu Dong handed a cigarette to Lao Qin, the leader of Group 4. Lao Qin was only two years younger than him. Among the eight people, the two walked the closest because of their similar age.

"Lao Qin, is there any news here?"

Lao Qin shook his head: "I didn't see a single ghost. I just asked my old colleagues in Qindao, they started the action in the afternoon, and we probably won't see any action until tomorrow."

"Really? Tell me quickly, what big moves are there?" In the long night, Xu Dong suddenly became interested.

Lao Qin took the last puff of his cigarette slowly, then stamped out the cigarette butt, and stretched out his hand and said: "Another cigarette, I will tell you slowly, I guarantee there will be big news."

Xu Dong simply stuffed all the remaining cigarettes to the other party.

"That's nice." Lao Qin lit a cigarette skillfully and took a deep puff, "Do you know how many people they arrested this afternoon?"

"How many?" Xu Dong asked in cooperation.

Lao Qin stretched out a finger.

"One thousand?"

"More than 10,000. Qindao has mobilized more than 100,000 people. 1,000 people is too small."

"Damn, so many, where did they get them?" Xu Dong asked hurriedly.

Lao Qin sighed, "Most of them were found in the industrial zone. These people work hard and don't ask for wages. They just need a bite to eat. Which boss doesn't like them?"

"Uh, where did they get the food?"

"Well, it's called food, but it's actually some wheat bran, rice bran, and straw that no one eats, plus a little bit of miscellaneous grains and flour, and finally mixed together to make bread. I heard that it's so hard that it can break your teeth."

Xu Dong suddenly remembered his previous life. During the most difficult years, his family also ate this kind of bread for more than a year.

At that time, because this kind of bread was long, everyone gave it a vivid name, called baguette bread.

"These big bosses are really smart. They don't need much food to do this." Xu Dong sighed.

"They also learned from our neighbors to the south, who have been eating grass for a long time."

Lao Qin laughed out loud.

Xu Dong felt a little funny. He laughed at others now, but he didn't know if he would be able to laugh when he ate grass himself.

"Okay, stop laughing. Maybe we will have to eat grass in the future?"

"Lao Xu, don't be ridiculous. We have built so many plant factories in our country. How can we be short of food?" Lao Qin shook his head.

Xu Dong explained casually: "There are more than one billion people. I'm afraid it won't be enough."
