Chapter 766
Although the knight shield is very easy to use at this time, Li Changheng knows very well that it is because of the money.
At the end of the Vietnam War, millions of soldiers who returned to the United States could not find jobs, and the unemployment rate in the United States as a whole exceeded 8%.
High salaries and stable jobs, and even family members can work on the Knight Shield resident farm, can really win people's hearts.
But ever since Teng Teng said that he wanted to enter politics, Li Changheng understood that several years of stable life and good salary made many members of the first batch of Knight Shield.
Because of the consideration of family or social status, the current needs are no longer only in terms of money.
Some people will retire or even be eliminated due to physical reasons.
Some people who pass the examination, have no problem with loyalty, and are willing to enter the Drug Enforcement Administration, a department full of justice and mission.
Continue to hold a gun and do what you like or do best.
The other part of the most elite and most loyal will be selected into the guard group.
Moreover, it is impossible for the members of the guard team to be guards all the time.
From the age of 40, due to physical weakness and family reasons, it is impossible for some people not to retire.
At that time, Li Changheng, the boss, will have to arrange them well only in terms of confidentiality.
And the Interdiction and Reading Bureau, whose numbers and rights are rapidly expanding, is one of the good choices.
Wait for batch after batch of Knight Shield members to join, and operate for several years, more than ten years.
Front-line combat members, agents, team leaders, and supervisors are all from Knight Shield, and the inspectors in charge of FAST are all their own people.
In the future, even if someone wants to wipe out Li Changheng's influence in the "reading" bureau, not to mention that it can't be done, but it will definitely make people feel difficult to do so, and even the gains outweigh the losses.
And as long as Li Changheng is not relentless when it comes to cracking down on flour, let alone the combat team from Knight Shield.
Even Bert Rich, Carter Hall, etc. still have ideals, justice, and bottom line in their hearts, or they are members of the Reading Bureau who have hatred against flour merchants and reading vendors.
He also doesn't care whether he uses the Interpretation Bureau to attack political and economic opponents.
Not to mention, in reality, there is still a member of the "Reading" Bureau who will definitely slow down the "Reading" Bureau, and even become an opponent.
You can clearly realize that "reading" in the United States is actually just a job.
Because the United States can talk about anything, lobby for anything, and the bottom line is an incredible country.
Besides, Li Changheng has plenty of time and money, so it is not impossible to cultivate his own influence in the Ministry of Justice, and even promote his own people to the position of Chief Prosecutor.
After sending Robert and Carter away, Li Changheng immediately contacted Tommy Reeves, Chief Prosecutor and Assistant Office Director of the U.S. Department of Justice.
After some exchange of benefits, Tommy, who originally planned to resign at the end of the year, was planning to run for the California Senate next year.
Faced with the conditions proposed by Li Changheng, he agreed to stay for two to three years after thinking about it for only ten seconds.
Of course, maybe Tommy felt that he was not ready for the Senate election.
Or maybe he felt that if he did not agree, without Li Changheng's support, the chances of winning the election next year would not be high.
After all, in addition to Li Changheng's promise, the 4 million campaign funds promised at the beginning can be used for the senator election when necessary, and can also be used for the promotion of the Ministry of Justice.
And in the future, as long as he is in the Ministry of Justice, not only will he be paid 300,000 U.S. dollars in political donations every year, but he will also be paid 500,000 U.S. dollars in legal income every year.
This is a more tangible benefit than the 4 million campaign funds, and it can be easily obtained, which is also the main reason why Tommy cannot refuse.
With the help of the highest level inside, Li Changheng flew to Washington the next day, and secretly met with the four top levels of the Ministry of Justice.
Not only was he hired as a consultant, but he was also given the right to appoint the administrative director, instructor, commander of the operation team, and commander of the intelligence team of the special police force of the Interdiction and Reading Bureau.
Moreover, the four heads of the Ministry of Justice, it seems that Li Changheng gave them the same contribution as Tommy, and the promise of legal income.
It is easy to agree that as long as the cash seized by FAST is handed over, 30% will be distributed to FAST in the form of a bonus.
As for the U.S. Treasury Department, let them go to hell.
Although it is clearly stipulated that it is required to hand over, there are too many ways to deduct the funds for the department.
Not to mention that CI·A has secret funds overseas, and any American institution whose functions and powers involve overseas basically has its own secret account.
The big deal is to put the money abroad.
Then there are ways to transfer the money back to the Ministry of Justice and the Bureau of Compilation and Reading by legal and reasonable means little by little.
Of course, Li Changheng would definitely not leave such low-level excuses. After all, the battle between an elephant and a donkey, in an election year, it is not easy to say that it is life and death.
As long as FAST has overseas combat missions, a set of combat equipment usually costs 1,000 US dollars, and it is too simple to make an account of 10,000 US dollars.
Moreover, no one will investigate this matter at all.
Look at the time when the Americans were in Afghanistan, a model house in China costing at most a few thousand dollars was quoted at $420,000.
There is also a cost of 6 million US dollars to transport 9 goats by air, and 680 million U.S. military planes to eat ashes at the airport, and finally dispose of it to the contractor at a very low price. If there is no problem here, then hell.
After settling the issue of authority, Li Changheng returned to the manor and immediately called Barney, Trenches, Tom Davis, and the ambitious Banks who were still in New York together.
As for Dao Feng, he shook his head and refused without thinking, expressing his wish to stay by Li Changheng's side and be the head of the guards.
After Barney and the others listened to Li Changheng's introduction to the FAST troops, Barney was the first to shake his head and said, "Boss, it's okay if you let me fight, but being an official really makes it difficult for me.
I still stay at Knight's Shield with peace of mind and select FAST reserve personnel and members of the inspection escort for you. "
Li Changheng nodded after thinking for a few seconds. To be honest, Barney was his most trusted subordinate.
Then he looked at the trenches, and the trenches shrugged, "I have no problem. However, it is suggested that the Korean combat team trained by Banks and Tom should also be included in the special police force of the "Reading" Bureau."
Upon hearing this, Banks breathed heavily.
But in the face of Li Changheng, and the weak form that has been suppressed by the trenches and Barney for a long time, he dare not make a scene.
Seeing that Banks was silent, Trenches continued, "These people don't have any roots in the United States, and they yearn for the identity of the United States, so it's easy to gain his loyalty.
Performing missions in the island country, they who were born in Gaoli have an advantage over us.
Moreover, although it is a bit cruel to say this, but for some missions with a high degree of danger and high confidentiality requirements, if the remains of comrades cannot be taken away, the Asian face can save a lot of trouble. "
