Chapter 30 The Development of Meth Town I
"Have you heard, the new Free Army is going to try those bastards who did evil things at the headquarters, please all of us stand up and identify them on the spot!"
"Of course I heard that a notice was posted at the gate of the headquarters, and the soldiers who robbed property at will, killed people for no reason, and ** women have been confirmed, and they will be immediately shot!"
"What's more, the headquarters announced that Mae Si Town, Chunsa Town, and Chiang La Town will run for election for officials at all levels of the town government in a week, and young people with cultural knowledge are also welcome to sign up for the staff of various departments, and the salary is very good.

"Not only that, but the headquarters also announced that it would give a subsidy of 300 US dollars per family to those difficult households who grow opium poppies, which is good now, with these 7,500 baht, there is no need to worry about life this year!"
In the morning, the people of Meisi Town gathered in groups of three or five, discussing the announcement issued by the headquarters, which was an unprecedented thing, looking at the groups of soldiers who were tied back by ropes, everyone was sure that this was true, and soon formed a storm of enthusiasm.
After being oppressed for decades, the common people hated the army in Meisi Town to the point that they couldn't wait to eat meat and suck the bones, especially those families whose relatives were killed, or whose women were occupied by **, and they poured into the headquarters like crazy, pointing at some of them jumping to their feet and crying and scolding, telling about the great harm they had suffered.
As the first batch of close contacts after the training group came to the Golden Triangle, Wu Chen gave him a very high salary, and promised that he could be recruited into his team in the future and become a full-time mercenary.
Meng Shuang and Meng Ling served as temporary clerks, leading more than a dozen girls who could write, and were responsible for recording the files of each person on trial. What Wu Chen means is to do things clearly, not to let outsiders put forward any opinions, and to gradually build a legal social order in the future, and not to rely on local rules to handle affairs.
There was a brigade of soldiers in the square, armed with live ammunition to maintain order at the scene, and the people of Meisi Town automatically and spontaneously elected more than 30 representatives, all of whom were respected elderly people in the local area, and they were responsible for expressing everyone's wishes or attitudes to the military.
However, Wu Chen, who did not come forward to do anything and had been standing silently at the entrance of the headquarters to watch what happened, was frantically thanked and worshiped by the people of Meisi Town.
Every family of revenge and hatred ran to his knees and bowed down in front of him, it was this person who came to Meisi Town like a savior to save everyone from the hellish suffering, this person is the god and Buddha in everyone's mind.
"Boss, you still know the psychology of these people best, as soon as the liquidation was launched, many people brought us food and drink, and many young people took the initiative to sign up to join the Free Army and the staff of various towns." The people of the training group looked at Wu Chen and really admired it in their hearts.
Wu Chen didn't explain anything, he wasn't how smart he was, but he thought of the local tyrants who divided the land back then, if you are good to the people, the people will be able to remember you for a lifetime, and you can even throw your head and spill your blood, the most simple and kind people in the world are the people.
The public trial at the headquarters lasted only two days, which seemed to be very short, but the result of the trial, no one had even the slightest objection, and what these guys were doing was clear to everyone, and there was no logic or evidence unclear at all.
Many people ran to a mountain more than 20 miles away to watch those heinous guys being executed, and the gunmen in charge of the execution this time were the former soldiers of Meisi Town who were recruited.
After the battle, nearly 1,000 people were captured, and the common people unanimously identified more than 200 people who could not be forgiven, these are all guys who are related to the leaders of Meisi Town, or some henchmen, Wu Chen decided to execute them immediately, not killing them is not enough to anger the people!
There are also about 200 people, who belong to the type of people who make big mistakes without making small mistakes, and after careful consultation with the common people, they believe that the crimes they have committed will not lead to being shot. After careful consideration, Wu Chen still decided to kill a group of hooligans who often humiliated women and bullied the old and young.
The remaining 100 or so people were temporarily sent home, but instead of saying that they were all right, they were ordered to make meritorious contributions when the large-scale construction of Meisi Town began, and they must participate in labor for free and carry out a ten-year transformation to atone for their sins.
There are also soldiers in their early 600s, who need to be trained by the training regiment, and when they graduate, they will divide more than 500 people to form a motorized infantry battalion, mainly to defend a mountain pass between Mae Si town and Chiang Mai province.
More than 100 more will be the first gendarmes and police officers in the three towns, responsible for military discipline and law and order. Whether it is the area of Lang Bas Sha Town or the area of Mei Si Town, it must be the concept of the military government in the early stage, and when there are many soldiers, trouble will come, and these guys will definitely not be like those policemen, once they violate discipline, they will have to be handed over to the military police to deal with.
The leaders of Meisi Town, without exception, were shot, the environment can affect the thinking and behavior of people, it is indeed not easy to do good things, but it is very easy to do bad things, to be able to sit on a top spot, there must be blood on their hands.
However, Wu Chen insisted that the disaster would not affect his family, as long as there was no evil deed, the lives of the family members of these leaders could still be guaranteed, which also made the people very emotional, this big man has a bottom line for doing things.
More than 300 people were shot at one time, this kind of scene has never happened except during the war, many people vomited on the spot after watching the execution process, and the scene of the head being opened made everyone feel unbearable, so in three days, more than 300 graves were added to the back of the town.
A week later, the first batch of town government officials and staff in Mae Si Township were temporarily appointed, strangely enough, the letter of appointment was signed by Meng Ling, and her title was, Administrative Officer of Mae Si Township, Chunsa Township, and Chiang La Township and the surrounding area.
Wu Chen doesn't like to stand in the front, the gun shoots the first bird, although he has a green card in the United States, but he is still a Chinese, this identity for many countries, will have a certain association, thinking that China is involved in the affairs of the Golden Triangle region.
As a result, Wu Chen decided that even if he controlled part of the Golden Triangle, the government leader who appeared in public would not be him, in addition to the above factors, it would create a high-profile situation, limit his personal development, and he would have to do a lot of things in the future, and he must not be bound by this identity.
Officials and civil servants in Mae Si Township will be responsible for the reconstruction of the town, such as surveying the population, occupation and family composition, measuring the land and mountain area, contacting construction companies and road engineering companies in Chiang Mai Province, registering needy households and the elderly, preparing for the distribution of relief funds, and temporarily working at the headquarters.
According to Wu Chen's concept, Mei Si Town will build a large number of new buildings with light steel structures, including the town government, military dormitories, shopping malls, schools and hospitals, etc., of course, he is ready to hire professional designers to do the design drawings, and this work will not be too late to solve after the affairs of Lang Basa Town are over.
The new mayor is named Shati, a middle-aged man in his 40s, who graduated from Chiang Mai University and is a native of Chiang Mai. After graduating, he worked in the municipal government of Chiang Mai, the provincial capital, and served as the deputy secretary-general of the municipal government before leaving office.
Officialdom can be described as a step-by-step killing machine, mixed in this big dye vat, it is inevitable to encounter such a thing as exclusion or framing, after all, everyone wants to be promoted, for those who block themselves, the means are all used, the winner is the king, the loser is the villain, everyone sees the brilliance of the winner, who remembers the defeat of the loser?
And this Mr. Shati is self-assured of his ability, and he doesn't care too much about the technical aspects of the promotion process, so he was unfortunately recruited and lost the opportunity for this promotion, and he returned to his hometown of Meisi Town to settle down in anger.
Because he was born in a big local family, it was inconvenient for the local forces in Meisi Town to treat him, and they also gave some gifts during the New Year's holidays. He is a very enthusiastic person, and often negotiates with those leaders for the common people, so this public election, he was unanimously elected as the first mayor of Meisi Town.
