Chapter 1845 Interests of all parties
In the professional field of civil affairs, especially immigration management, Fu Li's qualifications are naturally not as good as that of Liu Shang. He is better at public security affairs, so many aspects of the handover have to be explained and proposed by Liu Shang.
Question. Until dark, the two of them had not completed the handover of data files.
Liu Shang's mouth was dry after talking for a long time. After drinking half a pot of tea, he saw that it was getting late, so he suggested to stop here and continue the handover work tomorrow. Fu Li also felt that he needed time to digest the information.
When Dang even proposed that he would be the host and invite Liu Shang to dinner, it could be regarded as a reply to Liu Shang's banquet for him yesterday.
Liu Shang smiled and said: "Of course Director Fu wants to treat us, but there is no need to worry now, someone will treat you to this meal."
Fu Lixin said that among the civil servants here, you and I are the only two of the same rank. Could it be that the military generals want to treat us? But considering that he doesn't seem to have such a big reputation, he can let the military people take the initiative to come over.
"Don't think about it, they are North Koreans. Their officials stationed at the base are waiting to meet with you." Liu Shang's next words surprised Fu Li: "I guess there will be people lining up to invite you in the next few days.
Let’s eat, luckily I’m quick to move ahead.”
In addition to the officials in charge of North Korean labor, the leaders of Annan, Portugal, and the Fujian Navy also heard the news that the local civil affairs chief was to be replaced, and they were officials transferred from Sanya. Naturally, they had to find a way first.
Get acquainted. After this round of meetings is over, subordinates like Cui Ren will also look for opportunities to take turns entertaining Fu Li in order to make a good impression in front of the new leader.
After all these people have interacted with each other, Fu Li should have a good grasp of the local situation. By then, all aspects of the relationship will have been basically established, and it will be easier to get cooperation from the top and bottom to carry out work.
This kind of greeting and sending action is not unique to Haihan officialdom. In fact, whether it is Ming Dynasty or North Korea, East or West, interpersonal interactions in official circles are accompanied by interest relationships, and Haihan is no exception. Fu Li
As the new local civil affairs official, he will most likely be responsible for local commercial and trade affairs in the future, and he will have a certain influence on the interests of all parties. The relevant personnel must naturally take the initiative to establish good relations to ensure their own interests.
Fu Li was not a newbie in the officialdom. After thinking about it for a while, he understood what Liu Shang meant. Since the North Korean official's intention to treat him to dinner was conveyed through Liu Shang, it was natural that he was the one who helped bridge the gap. Fu Li thanked him again
After Liu Shang took care of him.
Before coming to North Korea, Fu Li was actually worried about whether he could quickly adapt to the environment and new job here, but judging from the current situation, everything seems to be going smoothly. Especially his predecessor Liu Shang will work
The handover has been arranged in an orderly manner, and he has been helping himself to quickly integrate into the environment here. This is definitely not something that an outsider who has just arrived can accomplish alone.
Therefore, although Fu Li was very polite to Liu Shang's kindness on the surface, he was still grateful in his heart and wanted to make friends. As the saying goes, rely on your parents at home and rely on your friends when you go out. Fu Li was also happy to get to know more.
A few such caring friends. Of course out of caution, he still maintained a relatively official relationship with Liu Shang with great restraint and showed no intention to actively develop personal relationships.
Because of Fu Li's special position and his personal relationship with Haihan's senior management, there were quite a few people who tried to get close to him in the past, and Ren Liang often gave him guidance on how to deal with interpersonal relationships.
Be cautious when doing business and never form cliques to avoid being taken advantage of in the future.
This kind of thing is not without precedent. Many officials who were promoted from local people in the early years were unable to take advantage of the benefits brought to them by people from all walks of life, and were gradually corroded. It would be fine if these officials only used their power to make money.
Well, the higher-ups usually turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, and don’t try to get too much for it. But there are some people who can’t grasp the boundaries, and are encouraged by others to interfere in government affairs, or even betray national security, so they just
It can be investigated.
When Fu Li was working in the Police Department, he had handled many cases like this, so he was naturally more wary of it than ordinary people. Even if Liu Shang was a naturalized cadre promoted by Yu Xiaobao, he had gone through
During the political review by the Ministry of Security, Fu Li still did not forget his principles.
Liu Shang had no idea about Fu Li's more businesslike attitude. He actually placed himself in a relatively low position towards Fu Li from the beginning. After all, in Haihan's officialdom system, something like
Yu Xiaobao, Fu Li, Zhang Qianzhi and other young officials who were taken under the leadership of the chiefs ten years ago have very comparable qualifications and prospects, and their status is invisibly higher than that of ordinary naturalized officials at the same level.
Although officials like Liu Shang who joined the team halfway rose quickly, their qualifications were still far behind. Therefore, even though he and Fu Li were two officials in the same position, Liu Shang still took the initiative to lower his status.
When dealing with Fu Li, what Liu Shang wants is not immediate benefits, but building connections for future development, so he does not ask for immediate rewards. This seemingly utilitarian approach naturally makes Fu Li more powerful.
Somewhat favorable.
As expected, the evening banquet was hosted by North Korean officials, but the scene was not as big as yesterday. Only two Haihan officials, Liu Shang and Fu Li, were invited to attend, accompanied by those who currently manage the North and South Korean labor camps.
Two general managers - one of them is Cui Ren, who is already familiar with Fu Li.
This North Korean official named Park Buk-soo was a close confidant of Kim Sang-heon, and it was because of this relationship that he got this lucrative job. The reason why it is said to be a lucrative job is because North Korea allocated thousands of workers to it.
The food and clothing expenses, and the daily necessities allocated to them by Haihan, Pu Beixiu had to take a bite in the middle. There were advantages in eating both ends, and this job that was originally not a lucrative job was suddenly turned into a fat job by him.
One piece.
Regarding these situations, Liu Shang naturally knew that Park Beixiu's operations were not very clever. They were far inferior to the quartermaster's methods of deducting funds that he had seen in the Majiazhuang refugee camp in Shandong Province. He could even use simple and crude methods to deduct funds.
Describe. But Park Beok-soo is a North Korean official, and Liu Shang is of course inconvenient to interfere. As long as the emotions of the North Korean people in the base are under control, Haehan will not deliberately bring this kind of issue to trouble Park Beok-soo.
Of course, Park Baixiu was able to gain this position with the appreciation of Kim Sang-heon. He is not an incompetent corrupt official. He is very skilled in deceiving others. Even Liu Shang invites him every day.
Eating and drinking maintains a relatively good relationship. Liu Shang is a smart man. He can eat and drink anyway, but he will not accept gifts of gold or silver, so as not to make things unclear in the future.
Liu Shang was about to leave office. If Park Beixiu wanted to continue to reap benefits safely, he naturally had to win over the new Haihan Civil Affairs Officer as soon as possible. So when he heard that the new Civil Affairs Officer had arrived, he immediately contacted Liu Shang.
I would like to ask him to make an introduction and get to know each other privately before the formal official meeting. After all, it would be too late to communicate some things until the public meeting.
Liu Shang didn't have any objections to Park Beixiu's request. He also thought it would be a good thing to arrange for Fu Li to meet with the North Koreans earlier, so that at least Fu Li could be prepared early and not be disappointed because of Park Beixiu's ugly appearance after taking office.
Fall into passivity.
So on the way to take Fu Li to the banquet, Liu Shang pointed out Park Beixiu's position and intention to him in advance, allowing Fu Li to have multiple opinions. As for the two supervisors of the North Korean labor camp, Cui Ren was more inclined to join Haihan.
Another supervisor, Shin Cheol, is Park Buk-soo's confidant. If Choi In had not chosen to hug Liu Sang's thigh early in the morning, he might have been kicked out by Park Buk-soo and replaced by his confidant.
Although Fu Li had a bad opinion of Park Bek-soo in his heart, he still had to do enough on the surface, and there was really no need for him to argue with Park Bek-soo about these corruption issues. As Liu Shang said, as long as the North Korean labor camps are in good order,
As long as there are no troubles due to life issues and you can complete various labor tasks according to Haihan's arrangements, then everything will be business as usual.
Liu Shang specially left a book for Fu Li, which is full of records of Park Beixiu's corruption, and Cui Ren is also very likely to follow the arrangement and stand up as a witness at a critical moment. If something goes wrong, there is no need for Haihan to bear the responsibility.
responsibility.
Although there were only five guests and hosts in today's banquet, the richness alone seemed to exceed the two banquets arranged by Liu Shang yesterday. There were even several jars of "Sanya Special Wine" placed beside the table. This stuff is currently shipped to
The quantity in North Korea is not large, and most of it is bottled. This small three-pound jar of Sanya special wine is estimated to be sold for about twenty taels of silver, which shows that Park Beixiu is quite generous.
Of course, this money is easy to come by, and naturally it is spent wisely. Pu Beixiu is willing to spend money to entertain Fu Li, naturally because it is profitable. As long as he successfully wins over the new civil affairs official, the cost of this banquet will not take more than two days.
Time can be taken back.
Liu Shang had greeted him in advance, so Fu Li was not in a hurry to express his attitude. He just responded with a "hmm", saying that he was new here and not familiar with the situation here.
Perhaps because of the presence of his boss, Cui Ren was no longer as active as he was in the morning. However, the other manager, Shen Zhe, was quite sensible and didn't even touch the stool. He kept pouring wine and serving food for everyone without stopping.
A perfect follower.
After drinking for three rounds, Park Beixiu may have felt that the preparations were almost done, so he immediately took the initiative to bring up the business: "Master Fu, the cooperation between our country and your country has always been close, and the joint construction of this Datong River base reflects the closeness between the two countries.
We have a good relationship and hope that this cooperative relationship can continue after Mr. Fu takes office."
Fu Li smiled and said: "Of course. Mr. Park, please rest assured that whatever the rules were during Director Liu's tenure, they will still be implemented in the future. If there are any differences, I hope Mr. Park can communicate with us in time."
Pu Beixiu said: "Speaking of communication, I just remembered something. Mr. Liu happens to be here, so let's tell it and let's go over the details together and see how to handle it."
"After the war, although North Koreans gradually left here to return home, thousands of homeless people still gathered outside the base, hoping to find a livelihood here. I very much agree with the work-for-work proposal proposed by your country's leader.
We are looking for ways to provide relief, so I would like to discuss with you two adults to see if we can recruit some more people to help these people tide over the difficulties."
Fu Li was shocked by Pu Beixiu's words, and he suddenly sobered up a lot. He looked at Liu Shang and saw that Liu Shang was calm and composed, as if he had expected this suggestion from the Koreans.
At first glance, Park Beixiu's suggestion seemed to be to rescue the North Korean refugees outside the base, but Fu Li had heard Liu Shang introduce this man's style before, and subconsciously thought that there was something fishy about it. It was just how the other party wanted to benefit from it, and he had no idea.
I haven't turned this corner yet.
However, Liu Shang took the initiative to help Fu Li understand the mystery: "Master Park means to recruit a group of Korean people and then apply for more funding from the court. Is my understanding wrong?"
Pu Beixiu said with a smile on his face: "Master Liu is indeed experienced, so there is no need for me to waste my words!"
Fu Li was not a rookie. After listening to the conversation between the two, he immediately understood Park Beok-soo's purpose and means. After the war, some Korean workers chose to leave here and return home. For some reasons, Park Beok-soo did not dare to take the free salary. Therefore, this kind of
The reduction in the number of people will inevitably affect his income, so he focused on the refugees outside the base, hoping to keep the North Korean population in the base at a certain level by recruiting new people, so that his income level can continue to be maintained.
As for how Haehan arranges these refugees, that is probably not what Park Beixiu cares about. His calculation is very clear. If there is one more North Korean in the base, he will get more money. If he can recruit thousands more people,
Then it wouldn't be a problem even if he invited Fu Li to dinner every day.
It would be difficult for the North Korean court to intervene in this kind of thing, because it would be Haihan people who proposed to recruit North Korean refugees, and the court was unlikely to object to Haihan's reasonable request. At most, it would verify the number of people and then honestly provide enough
The food is given to the North Korean people who are working for Haihan. At that time, Park Beixiu can continue the current operation mode and intercept the next part and put it into his own pocket.
Of course, during this process, Haihan will also provide some materials to North Korean workers to reflect the so-called work-for-relief spirit, but in fact it is extremely limited compared to the official contributions from North Korea. The cost of supporting these North Korean workers
More than 90% of the food was shipped from the south by North Korean officials, so although Park Beixiu wanted to deduct benefits from Haihan, it actually didn't have much impact, and he was sure that Liu Shang wouldn't care about such a trivial matter.
Chapter completed!
