Chapter 3090
Shao Tianhu hopes to solve this problem for the Xingdao Office at the beginning of his duties, which can not only eliminate external threats, but also establish prestige in front of old employees.
However, considering the sensitivity of the diplomatic field, especially Haihan's special relationship with Portugal, he certainly cannot act freely, otherwise he will easily end up in an uncontrollable situation, and may even implicate Xingdao's boss.
He hopes that the action will not only have the effect of deterring opponents and making them retreat when faced with difficulties, but will not trigger a diplomatic incident because of too radical a method and call for investigation by powerful departments.
But the people under Shao Tianhu were best at doing all kinds of shady and dirty work during their time in the army. The only rules they needed to abide by were military orders.
As long as they can achieve their goals, they can do anything.
Therefore, any idea they can come up with at the moment can cause great trouble for Shao Tianhu and the office.
If they were left to their own devices, Shao Tianhu felt that he might become the person in charge with the shortest tenure since the establishment of the Xingdao Office.
Seeing that no one could come up with a decent plan for a while, Shao Tianhu could only make his own decision.
"I think this is good. We first determine the targets that need to focus on, collect intelligence on the opponent, and then wait for opportunities to act based on the development of the situation."
Shao Tianhu divided the existing manpower into three groups. One group was to keep an eye on the Portuguese Embassy, one group was to monitor Puji Trading Company, and another group was led by him personally to deal with those people lurking outside the Xingdao office.
If the other party really planned to attack the Xingdao Office regardless of the consequences, Shao Tianhu would be able to stop it in time.
This group of people are elite soldiers and generals in the mercenary group, and their abilities are not bad. It is no problem to carry out such simple tasks.
As a prosperous international port city, Sanya brings together people of all colors from all over the world. Even if some of them are not of Han descent, they will not attract much attention when walking around here.
The only problem is that most of them are coming to Sanya for the first time and are extremely unfamiliar with the local environment, which may affect their actions.
Regarding this point, Shao Tianhu doesn't have a good solution for the time being, because even he himself is not much better in this regard.
Although he had studied at the Army Academy on the Luhuitou Peninsula for a period of time before, he had very few opportunities to go out for activities at that time. Even most places in the city were still unfamiliar areas to him.
The next day, before officially starting the operation, Shao Tianhu quietly went to the office again.
He is not worried about the safety of the people in the office, but he wants to obtain the required resources through the office as much as possible. Although the operating scale of the Xingdao office is small, the various resources at its disposal are definitely far superior to that of an outsider like him, which is enough to make his plan more effective with half the effort.
"I need a few carriages. It's best to have a reliable local coachman. If that doesn't work, just rent a car without a coachman. In addition, I need to find one or two relatively secluded places, preferably warehouses and the like, where few people usually move around. ”
"It doesn't matter if you spend a little more money, we can implement it as soon as possible today. Is there any problem?"
Lao Wang responded: "Sir, what you said... should be ready within today, and there is no need to spend any extra money."
After that, he told Li Gui: "Go and get the name of the office's assets."
Li Gui took the order and left, and returned shortly. He brought a thick book, which was the asset list of the Sing Tao Office. Lao Wang opened the book and explained to Shao Tianhu: "Sir, please read, what is recorded here is the local industry of Xingdao, and it contains the resources you need."
Xingdao has been limited by its population base for many years, and its development has been relatively slow. It is not outstanding among Haihan's overseas regions.
Especially those industries that require a large amount of labor, the operating conditions in the Singdao area are far from comparable to those in the country. Only a few mineral deposits listed as key resources by the Executive Committee can obtain the labor required for production through special safeguard measures.
A considerable part of Star Island's annual fiscal revenue must be allocated as military expenditures to maintain the local garrison, which far exceeds the normal population ratio.
This has also led to the fact that Xingdao's financial situation has not always been very comfortable. There is not much money to invest in infrastructure and people's livelihood, so that it cannot use good living conditions to attract domestic people to immigrate to Xingdao and settle down.
But even so, Xingdao still allocated part of its funds to invest and operate some industries in the country.
These industries are not entirely for making money, but more for trade channels to reduce the cost of trade activities between Xingdao and China, and these include business stores, carriage shops, and shipping terminals in Sanya. and warehousing facilities, etc.
This was the first time Shao Tianhu came into contact with this information, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised at the moment.
He looked through the book carefully and found that in addition to the industry resources that Lao Wang specifically mentioned that he urgently needed, there were actually some properties and shops that he could earn income from leasing.
Turning to the next few pages, he even owns shares in several large farms in the upper reaches of the Linchun River.
He originally thought that such an inconspicuous Xingdao office was just an idle organization. It was usually only responsible for sending and receiving official documents, dealing with civil servants, and purchasing supplies. He did not expect that it was still quietly operating so many industries.
Shao Tianhu couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that our Xingdao has so many industries in the capital!"
Lao Wang couldn't help but feel a little proud at this time: "The first half of this book is the assets purchased with funds allocated by Xingdao, and the second half is the operating results of our office over the years."
Shao Tianhu was reminded by him and looked carefully at the records. Sure enough, every property has a purchase time and person who handles it.
Judging from the records, the former head of the office actually did a pretty good job in this regard. It's just that the office has no outstanding achievements in external publicity and introducing immigrants, and it usually acts low-key, so it has never had much influence.
Shao Tianhu suddenly thought of something and asked Lao Wang: "The ownership of these industries is kept secret from the outside world?"
Lao Wang knew what he was worried about, nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, for the convenience of operation, the only public property of our office is this courtyard. The rest are purchased in private names, and no one outside knows about it."
< br>
Shao Tianhu's actions require the mobilization of these resources. If someone with intentions connects him with the office, it may have a bad impact.
But since there are so many industries, Shao Tianhu has been secretly thinking that after this incident is over, he may try to arrange for his subordinates to take up jobs in these places.
In this way, if there is any situation in Sanya in the future, I will have people available at any time, and I will not have to rely on the three melons and two dates in the office to work for me.
