Chapter 779 Public arrest and trial

"Coach, the theft case in the camp has been solved. Four criminals were arrested, and the stolen goods were also recovered. This is a confession." Chen Yixin is still used to calling Anxi the nickname "coach", but this kind of title is only limited to time travellers.

For internal use, no naturalized citizen would be so bold.

Anxi quickly looked through the confession, nodded and said: "Well done, if this matter continues to be delayed, it will also affect the mood of the people. Since everyone has been arrested, let's go through the procedures."

The procedure An Xi mentioned refers to the judicial procedure. However, there is currently no sound and complete judicial system in Kaohsiung Port. If we really want to follow the judicial procedure completely, these people must be escorted back to Penghu for interrogation first.

After the verdict, he was sent to serve in a hard labor camp on Hainan Island or elsewhere.

Chen Yixin reminded: "Coach, if we have to go through the process, we will send it back to Penghu for judgment. After the results are announced, we will announce the news here. It will probably take another four or five days to wait. Isn't this detrimental to appeasing the public's emotions?

"

Anxi pondered for a while and felt that what Chen Yixin said made sense. These new immigrants came to this undeveloped land. For them, everything about the future is unknown. At this stage, their psychological dependence on Haihan officials is very large.

. If they feel that even basic personal property cannot be protected by the authorities, it may indeed cause more uneasiness among the people.

"You mean to simplify the process and handle it on the spot?" Anxi asked.

Chen Yixin nodded and said: "According to the previous practice, criminal activities are severely punished in military-controlled areas and during military control periods. I heard General Qian say that when Heitu Port first opened, there were public sentences and executions.

The situation of death row prisoners. Although the theft cases in our camp are not considered capital crimes, timely and necessary disciplinary measures can still deter restless people and appease ordinary people."

Anxi thought for a while and then agreed with Chen Yixin's opinion: "Then let's not delay it. Let's get off work half an hour early this afternoon, and then hold a public judgment meeting outside the camp."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Chen Yixin stood up, saluted An Xi with a military salute, then said goodbye and left.

In the afternoon of that day, the immigrants were gathered on the beach outside the camp, where they were told that the prisoners responsible for several thefts in the past few days would be publicly sentenced here. Whether they were just watching the excitement or something else, the people were disappointed.

All of them have shown a more concerned attitude. Especially the hundreds of new immigrants sent from Guangdong, they only know that the local government functions here have been completely replaced by Haihan's management organization, and they have not really seen Haihan's

In terms of fighting crime, this public trial is also a new experience for them.

Chen Yixin seized the opportunity to temporarily build a four-foot-high platform on the beach using various packaging wooden boxes and prefabricated boards for building shacks for Anxi to deliver a speech. However, it was a little regrettable that Haihan's inventory

There are only a few loudspeakers in Kaohsiung Port. There is no such high-end equipment here in Kaohsiung Port, and Anxi’s speech can only be amplified by human beings using iron speakers. Fortunately, Anxi also did mass work at the grassroots level for a period of time after crossing over.

I am not unfamiliar with this propaganda method of speaking with a tin trumpet.

"This reminds me of when I first led people to build the Saltworks Commune five years ago." An Xi took the tin trumpet from Chen Yixin and tapped it lightly with his fingers: "At that time, I relied on this thing to command my men.

"Mozhuan, I hadn't learned the Hainan dialect at that time, so they couldn't understand what they said, and I couldn't understand what they said either. I was so anxious that I lost my voice after a long time."

"I didn't expect that we would still have to continue playing this in five years." Chen Yixin laughed and said, "If you can't hold it anymore, give me a sign and I will come on stage to replace you."

"It's not that serious. Okay, I think it's not too early, let's get started!" An Xi put away his smile, nodded to Chen Yixin, and then walked up to the podium.

Anxi's appearance immediately attracted the attention of the people sitting on the floor. He had visited various construction sites and immigration camps several times in the past few days. Everyone recognized Chief Haihan and knew that he was the local parent officer.

"Dear fellow citizens, fellow citizens of Haihan, today we are convening a public arrest and adjudication meeting in Kaohsiung Port! The Kaohsiung Port Management Committee, the Haihan Militia Troops in Kaohsiung Port, and the Kaohsiung Port Public Security Bureau will carry out thefts in the immigration camp in the near future.

The four criminals including Huang Bingkun who committed the crime were sentenced publicly."

Anxi's voice echoed on the beach. Although there were thousands of people sitting in the darkness below, it was silent at this time, and no one was whispering to each other. There were children who tried to run out to play, but were hugged tightly by adults.

, lest it disrupt the order of the venue.

Every few meters around the venue, there are soldiers from the Haihan Militia with live ammunition. In order to make the scene complete, Chen Yixin has mobilized all the mobile forces at hand. In addition to the sailors on standby on several combat ships, other subordinates

All military personnel have been dispatched.

Under the stage where Anxi was standing, there were two rows of soldiers standing densely, separating the stage from the crowd below. Even if something unusual happened in the arena, this kind of protection could protect Anxi's personal safety.

"...Lieutenant Colonel Chen Yixin, an officer of the militia, personally visited the crime scene to investigate, pointed out the direction of the investigation of the case, and quickly captured the criminal, both the person and the stolen property, and recovered all the property involved in several previous theft cases..."

Everyone carried the sedan chair. Chen Yixin praised Anxi so highly. Of course, Anxi did not hesitate to help Chen Yixin brush up his presence in his speech. Anxi had been involved in the Haihan bureaucracy for several years. This tacit understanding did not need to be stated in advance. He naturally knew what to do.

When and how to express it is most appropriate.

"Bring the prisoner up!"

Following Anxi's order, Chen Yixin moved his hand lightly, and the prepared militia soldiers carried the four tied criminals to the stage like chickens, and then pushed them to the floor and knelt down.

"After investigation, the facts of the crimes committed by Huang Bingkun and four other people are clear, the evidence is indeed sufficient, and their criminal behavior has caused extremely bad effects on the local people. In accordance with the "Haihan Public Security Administration Punishment Regulations" and the "Measures for the Management of Temporary Military Control Areas", after Kaohsiung

After the Hong Kong Administrative Committee, the Hong Kong-based civil society and the judicial authorities deliberated, on behalf of the Haihan Executive Committee and the Haihan Ministry of Justice, I announced the following disciplinary measures."

Anxi paused for a moment, and seeing that the audience's eyes were all focused on him, he continued to announce: "The criminals Huang Bingkun, Zheng Er, and Liao Guan were sentenced to three years and six months of hard labor for the crime of theft; the criminal Su Dan was sentenced to three years and six months of hard labor for the crime of theft.

Because he did not directly participate in the criminal activities of theft, he was only punished as a conspiracy and sentenced to six months of hard labor. The above-mentioned offenders will be sent to the Hainan hard labor camp on the same day to serve."

In terms of prison terms alone, Anxi's sentencing is indeed relatively severe. For example, if you catch a petty theft like this in Sanya with a small amount of money involved, you will usually be sentenced to one to two years at most. But these unlucky guys did it

The timing and location were indeed wrong. The new colony had just been built, and just when the security agencies were about to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, they automatically ran into the gun. If they wanted to finish their sentence in the hard labor camp, they would have to detach themselves even if they didn't die.

Skinned.

This judgment has not actually been approved by the Haihan Ministry of Justice. It can be said that it is actually the result of discussions between Anxi and Chen Yixin. However, extraordinary things are done in extraordinary times. Under the current social form of Kaohsiung Port with imperfect institutions, it is decided by the Management Committee

The meeting will temporarily exercise judicial power. Even if Gu Kai knows about it, there is nothing to criticize. Compared with the personal fate of these petty thieves, of course, maintaining the stability of the area under Haihan's rule is more important. As long as reasonable strikes can be carried out

The role of crime, this kind of details does not cause some ignorant virgin to pick out words based on legal provisions.

Chen Yixin made a gesture, and the soldiers on the stage immediately took the criminals off the stage. However, Anxi's speech was not over yet. Since he had already created such a momentum, he must use the topic to make further remarks.

sentence.

"...Today's public arrest and sentencing meeting is a major measure we take to publicly punish crimes, deter crimes, and expand education. It is a concentrated display of the recent results of Kaohsiung Port's public security management work, and fully reflects the Kaohsiung Port Management Committee's

, the determination of the militia troops stationed in Hong Kong to protect the lives and property of the people and maintain social stability..."

Anxi is worthy of being a cadre who has been promoted from the grassroots level all the way up. These cliche slogans come out of his mouth immediately. Chen Yixin who is standing aside feels that even if he is allowed to take on the job of publicity mouth, there should be no sense of violation.

"Ginger is so old!" Chen Yixin couldn't help but sigh secretly while listening to An Xi's endless promotional rhetoric.

If this matter were handed over to Chen Yixin, he probably wouldn't have as much to say as An Xi. He would announce the punishment measures in a few seconds and pull out the prisoner to show off, and that would probably be the end of the matter. However, An Xi could use the topic to his advantage and improvise.

He is indeed much better at launching a publicity campaign, turning bad things into good things, and taking the opportunity to preach policies to the immigrants. If Anxi stays for a few more years, maybe when the executive committee is re-elected next time, he will

He is already qualified to compete for the top 9 spot.

Of course, with the local official's statement and publicity, it will definitely have a good effect on calming the people's emotions. After all, the criminal has been caught, the stolen property has been recovered, and the chief has also stated that he will deal with it seriously. The public probably

It's hard to think of a better way to deal with it. If there are still people who will accuse the management committee and Haihan officials about the theft, then they probably have ulterior motives.

A week after Haihan landed in Kaohsiung Port, the Ajia Society, which received the news, sent another envoy, hoping to meet with the person in charge of Haihan. The Ajia Society’s envoy obviously did not expect that the people from Haihan said “relocating some people”

"Come here to build a port" is so large in scale that the camp built on the seaside and the density of people entering and exiting it seem to have exceeded the Agashe community.

"Please rest assured that our arrival will not affect the normal life of the Ajia Society. We can also provide the goods that your society wishes to trade." It was learned that the other party's intention was only to seek transactions with Haihan for refined salt, rice, and wine.

, pig iron, glassware and other supplies, Anxi also expressed goodwill to the other party's envoy in a relaxed manner.

However, the subsequent negotiations gave him a bit of a headache, because the trading items that Ajia Society could offer were indeed of low value, only deer skins, venison, fruits, medicinal materials and other products produced in the mountains and forests, and things like venison

Son, Haihan people don’t dare to accept it at all. Who knows how these indigenous people with strong tastes and like scavengers handle these foods. And the value of Haihan commodities that the Ajiashe people want to exchange for these things is obviously huge.

higher than what they can offer.

"No, five deer skins can only be exchanged for one bottle of wine." Anxi shook his head and rejected the other party's proposal to exchange one deer skin for a bottle of wine: "At most, I can give you an extra glass wine glass. Adult deer

A pair of deer antlers can be exchanged for a bottle of wine."

Anxi was not worried that the other party would give up the deal in anger because of his counteroffer. After the Haihan people occupied the coast here, the only person Ajia Society could trade with the outside world was the Haihan people. And the deerskin was also in their hands.

There are a few goods with relatively economic value that can be used to make leather clothing, high-end seats, etc. However, the tanning process of deerskin is very particular and requires the use of refined salt, because large grains of salt will damage the leather during the tanning process.

layer, and the Ajiashe people are not good at making salt, so the deer skins they can provide are basically untanned raw hides. If the raw hides are not salted in time, they will soon rot and lose hair.

Made into a fur pad. This kind of dehaired leather will turn into pieces during the tanning process, and it will also be a defective product after tanning. Its value is naturally limited. Therefore, the qualified trading products required by Haihan must be

Skin fresh deer skin that has not been aged for a long time.

It is not cost-effective to buy refined salt from Haihan people to tan deer skin. Tanning an adult male sika deer hide requires at least five or six kilograms of salt, and a large deer may even need about ten kilograms of salt. Even if Haihan refined salt is not expensive

, this kind of production cost is also unbearable for the poor Ajia people.

But five fresh deer skins only exchange for a bottle of Haihan wine. Even the Ajiashe people who like wine feel that this transaction condition is a bit disadvantageous. You must know that hunting five deer may require hunters to track them across mountains and ridges several times.

Oh my God, I had to peel the skin and send it to the outside of the mountain, which was quite a hassle. In the end, Anxi came up with a solution that was more troublesome but more profitable in the long run, which was to have Haihan provide the technology.

Instruct Ajia Society to raise deer artificially. In this way, venison, deer skin, antler, and Haihan can all be purchased as a whole, which can also ensure that the supply is fresh enough, and the purchase price will be more expensive than the current piecemeal transaction.

It is beneficial to the Aga community.
