10 Independent Fire Brigade (Three More Votes)

As the person in charge of education, Bouville has always been calm and likes to talk about things.

He didn't look down on Fei Volly's inconsistency, but he looked down on Baochang's dog fighting and human power.

At this moment, he raised his voice: "I heard that Charlie Han was raised with a Western education. ”

"It's still just a yellow pig." But Bao Chang continued.

Rumble! Fei Volli directly smashed the cup and scolded: "Do you dare to say it in front of him!" Put away your ridiculous remarks, uncultured stuff. ”

Bao Chang was about to shout, but Bouvier also said to him: "We are meeting to settle things and not quarrel here, Mr. Bao Chang, if you think that such entanglement can solve the problem, then please continue." ”

Then he said, "Merlot, you say, what does Charlie Han have to suggest." ”

After Merlot finished speaking, Bao Chang shook his head directly: "What are you kidding, how much will our annual expenses increase in this case?" ”

"Mr. Baochang, can you be sure that the previous 1,000 taels were used in the French Concession?"

Bouvier pondered.

At this time, Fei Volli said: "Charlie is right. Rather than being controlled by others, it is better to do it yourself. It is said that 39 Ming Yong was originally our own firefighting team, and it was also the main force to extinguish the fire in the French Concession. As a result, we have to give so much money to the Ministry of Industry every year, which in itself makes no sense. ”

Other directors, such as Boseman of the Real Estate Committee, felt justified and began to echo Mr. Fervoli's advice.

Only Baochang still expressed his resolute opposition, he thought it was a waste of energy.

Fei Volli was surprised: "What is the reason why you have to give money to the public concession?" By the way, yesterday's little conflict ended with Mr. Bain's mediation. How do you know for sure that these two things are closely related, that you are working for Devimen? ”

Bao Chang was furious and was about to beep, but Buville, who had been silent before, suddenly said, "I also support Mr. Fevoli's decision. ”

At this time, everyone looked at Baochang, and Baochang, who was alone, suddenly blushed and grasped the current lack of funds of the Public Board of Directors, thinking that this was completely on paper.

But Buville apparently had already taken this into account, saying: "We're going to pay our land tax for next quarter soon, and that's enough money to support the fire brigade." Having said that, the Ministry of Industry clearly informed us that if we did not agree to their conditions, then the fire on both sides of the pidgin would be taken care of in the future, which means that the money would always be given. ”

Fei Volli didn't expect Fei Volli, who was not easy to speak, to support himself so much today, and he immediately agreed: "That's the case. And we can't afford to build our own firefighting team. ”

"A set of water hoses is how much it is, and we can't form a firefighting team without eight thousand taels of expenses, even if we collect the land tax, we have other expenses. I think it's too hasty to do this now, or it's not too late to wait until next year to do so. Baochang, who was lagging behind, changed his strategy.

Fei Volli sneered and analyzed with him: "We already have two machines, Charlie Han donated one, that is, three, the Board of Directors buys another one, and the rest is just the establishment of the site and the salary of personnel!" Remember, from now on, the fire brigade is professional and does not need patrol help, which is also a good thing for us to maintain law and order. ”

Fires in concessions often have elements of gangsters deliberately setting fires inside.

Because the previous fire brigade was a volunteer team, and the number of people was also small, they often had to patrol and help when they encountered fires.

As soon as the patrol is missing, then the gangsters will take the opportunity to cause chaos.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, which is why Fevoli said so.

Boseman agreed: "Yes, it's a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. ”

"But if we have an independent fire brigade, we will set up a fire station or even a sub-station, and you haven't calculated this account yet." Baochang said.

"The police building is nearing completion, and the old central patrol house does not need to be funded as a fire station." Fivoli replied without even thinking about it.

"Don't you need funds for renovation, and what about the fire sub-site, how much does a station cost, you haven't calculated it?" Bao Chang continued to die throe.

But what he said is not without reason.

In order to control the fire alarm in the jurisdiction, the independent fire administration of the French Concession had to add many facilities.

This cost is indeed not small.

Director Jin He, who serves on the Public Facilities Committee, said at this time: "The cost of removing the land for the establishment of a qualified site is about 300 taels. ”

Bao Chang felt supported, and immediately excited, exclaiming, "Look, three hundred taels!" ”

And he said, "We need at least five sites, so how much is that?" In addition, how long will it take for this to be done, and what should I do if there is a fire during this period? ”

Fivoli is not jammed.

But Merlot suddenly spoke, "I haven't had time to say it yet. In fact, as long as we choose the site, Charlie's engineering team will build all the sites in five days. In addition, the previous 39 volunteers were able to borrow his sailor training base for free to conduct simple training for the newly recruited firefighters. When the time comes, we will let the old volunteers lead the novices, which is enough to form an effective fire power. ”

Is there such a thing? Boseman was already a little confused, and he felt that Merlot's promise did not come from Charlie Han.

It's that he's making his own decisions.

But why did he think so sure that he would agree to what he said, Charlie Han had already promised to donate water dragons and help recruit manpower.

Bao Chang is obviously not stupid either.

When he heard this, he immediately grabbed Merlot's words and asked emphatically, "Charlie Han said that he could help build the site within five days?" Okay, but how can he punish him if he can't do it! ”

The creature felt like it was on the high ground, but Fevoli wasn't fooled.

He sneered, who had a tacit understanding with Melo: "Everyone, first of all, I believe that the enthusiastic Mr. Charlie Han will not say such big words to make the villain laugh. In addition, I would like to ask what kind of logic is it that if an enthusiastic donor delays a little, in the eyes of Mr. Baochang, he will have no merit but be guilty! ”

Everyone nodded one after another, as far as the matter is concerned, Baochang's words are really unreasonable, and his performance today is too frustrating.

Bao Chang was about to say something more, but Fei Voli didn't want to get entangled with this guy anymore.

He immediately scolded Baochang: "Enough! Except for your objections, the matter has actually been passed. What we have to do now is pick out the location of the fire station! ”

But if the location is chosen now, Charlie's schedule is tight.

A better approach would be to find an excuse to delay and give Charlie more time to prepare.

Thinking of this problem in the light of light, Fevoli began to prepare to find fault.

Anyway, he was also disgusted by Baochang today.
