Chapter 211 Donations
PS: The third is asking for a monthly pass!
※※※※
On Wednesday morning, Li Mochen received a call from Kadiren Jebson that the employees of the Rising Sun Company had left in large numbers, and at least a third of the personnel who had been recruited and were still training had been lost, including two old ministers left behind by his father. There are also two renovation companies that have terminated their contracts.
Li Mochen was helpless and powerless about this, so he could only instruct Kadiren to continue to recruit people to fill the gap and hire a new decoration company.
The war between him and the Bloody Hand is now in full swing. Of course, his side did everything he could to attack all the properties of the Blood Hand, and Antonio's side spared no effort to attack him.
In the three days since the war began, six of their stores have been set on fire, and the company's headquarters and dormitories have been opened fire with machine guns. If it weren't for the initial formation of the security force presided over by Zhang Wei and the use of Dwight Peyton's connections, the patrol police were invited to be stationed around these stores, maybe two stores would have been burned down by now, and the headquarters would have been washed in blood.
Antonio's men even tried to retaliate by setting fire to their dormitory in the north of the city late Monday night, but fortunately, Germiri Burt detected it in advance, and Sampson Brutt, who was the first to learn the news, decisively went to support and crushed the Bloody Hand's plot.
Thanks to Randall Cadilla of the North District Police Department, the chief inspector whom Li Mochen met at Angela's drinking party, personally led a squadron of ialWeaponsAndTactics special weapons and tactics) to rush to reinforcements and repel the bandits.
But even so, Sampson Brut's men suffered as many as seven casualties. The other party also has a plan to attack the enemy and save the enemy, besiege the city and send reinforcements, but he missed the new inspector general of the North District Police Department. With the friendship of that drinking party and the care of Dwight Peyton, this person's support for Li Mochen can be said to have spared no effort.
Li Mochen was also unequivocal, and on the same day, accompanied by Alyssa Targaryen, he donated 1.5 million gold dong to the North District Police Mutual Aid Foundation of the North District Police Department, then 3,000 gold dong for Inspector Richard Clare's campaign office, and 400,000 gold dong for the Atlanta North District Joint Policing Action Committee. Finally, on the side of the Eastern District Police Station, it also invested 1.6 million gold dong, which is only slightly inferior to the northern district.
In addition, under the guidance of Dwight Peyton, Li Mochen also donated 115,000 gold to at least seven city councilors.
According to the American Constitution, there is a limit on the amount of personal political cash that can be run for government office, such as the prosecutor. The limit for a prosecutor like Richard Claire is 3,000, and then 15,000 on the political party's side.
However, this system has long since existed in name only, and voters can use the 'political action committee' as a body to circumvent this limitation.
Although the 'political action committee' cannot directly hand over the money to the candidates, they can buy advertisements on television stations and newspapers, publish tendentious political opinions, or hold drinking parties, fundraisers, and even donate money to major charities, libraries, schools, etc., in order to increase the prestige of the candidates.
Later, Li Mochen personally visited the 'comptroller' of Atlanta, Ms. Isolt, who was very dissatisfied with the war between Li Mochen and Antonio, and thought that his actions were absurd and destroyed the long-term peace of Atlanta.
Then, when Li Mochen left disappointed, the lady relented, believing that it was necessary to audit the finances of the Eastern District Police Station in detail in the near future to see if there was any corruption and misappropriation of funds.
"You know what, Andrey, you're really ridiculous. It's like a lion cub that doesn't have any teeth, provoking a jackal. ”
After sending Li Mochen out, Ms. Isolt sighed slightly: "But your character reminds me of your father." For the sake of some things he believes in, he often does whatever it takes. ”
Li Mochen could only laugh awkwardly, thinking that this had nothing to do with Li Chunchu, and Tao Ran, the sword of the Primordial Dome Realm, would do the same. No one can finally get out of the way after touching the people and things he values.
"But since you've done that, try to win this war as much as you can, knock that Antonio down, you have no way back, Andre. ”
When Ms. Isolt said this, she pointed to Alyssa Targaryen, who was not far behind Li Mochen: "I have to remind you to make good use of this girl's power." I know Angela Medici has a special affection for you, but in Atlanta, she can only help you. The Medici is high in the clouds, and there is a chasm between it and the society at the bottom. On the contrary, this Targaryen girl, many of her cousins and sisters served in the police department, about sixty or seventy? I can't count. Although there are not many of them who actually hold senior positions, they occupy a large number of mid-level positions and are the backbone and backbone of the Atlanta Police Department. If you can get their support, then even if Antonio bribes the entire police department higher-ups, he can't help you, you know? You know, no matter what kind of decision, it needs to be implemented. ”
"I understand. ”
Li Mochen's expression was solemn: "This is exactly what I am doing now." ”
In fact, this is the purpose of asking Alyssa Targaryen to come and help, and in the past few days, he has participated in two banquets at the Targaryens' house, and he has spent nearly four million on these 'Targaryens'. It's all in cash, depending on the position of 30,000 yuan.
This seems unnecessary, the store of the Rising Sun Company has not yet opened, and they don't need the police to help them crack down on the industries of the Blood Hand, but Li Mochen has to think about it, he doesn't want to mess up the relationship with the Targaryen family.
The continuous fighting in the past few days has made the police complain. Frequent attendance and a continuous stream of vicious law and order incidents have put the Eastern Police Department under a lot of pressure.
When Li Mochen appeared at the two banquets at Glian's house, many people's faces turned blue. But after Li Mochen generously sprinkled money, the situation was much better.
An old man who was a Targaryen inspector general even reminded Li Mochen when he was half drunk: "Go on! Don't stop, boy, I'm optimistic about you." The Sampson Brutt you hired, and the Thompson Adams, are all genius commanders in the special forces, and they haven't let the FBI or the Serious Crime Unit catch them until now. Even if you exclude Craig Community Bank, you've killed at least nine of his outlaws, leaving them unable to do any business for five days, aren't they? Did you know that our current director, Yves Ryder, is already in a state of flux?"
"You have to make the people up there realize that if Antonio doesn't fall, then the Bloody Hand won't want to do business anymore, and this war that will affect the entire East Side won't want to stop. At that point, you'll win, and everyone will be on your side. You know what? Election season is about to begin, and the Ombudsman of the Eastern District, and the current councillors, will not sit idly by and watch this chaos continue, they will have to choose between the two of you. But they can't help you, Andre. ”
"Shit, since Antonio's position in the east of the city has become more and more secure, they have been giving less and less money. Truth be told, a lot of people in the East Side still really want to see that guy fall. Among all the underworld bosses in the Eastern District, only this guy is the most unscrupulous and inhumane. Sometimes there are many vicious cases, so we can't bear to look at them, but we can't do anything about him. ”
"Don't worry, whether it's your headquarters or the dormitory in Dongcheng District, it's all on our Targaryens, and he doesn't want to do anything with these two places. ”
