Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Decision, this kind of thing does not even need the emperor's approval, the Electric Power Department can prepare it by itself.

In the work plan before the New Year, Digen Port was originally one of the first cities to consider power construction.

Even the Electric Power Department has sent people to do preliminary surveying and mapping, where to build power stations and how to lay lines, arrangements have long been made.

However, it is not just equipment that follows the expansion of the Electric Power Department.

It is inevitable to set up a local power bureau.

This means that the Electric Power Department, a bureau-level unit, has begun to extend its tentacles.

For the Electric Power Department, this is a matter of rising tides.

Otherwise, what can a group of people do if they stay in the imperial capital?

Only when the branches under the Electric Power Department are spread all over Daxia, that is real power.

In this regard, starting with Director Smith, everyone attaches great importance to it.

So Director Smith and several deputy directors went with the first batch of technicians.

Everyone knows the significance of this matter to the department, and they all want to join in the fun.

Smith himself has no objection to this, but he left a housekeeper and went to Digen Port together.

Of course, he was considering that it was the first branch after all, and he had to do it to perfection.

Since you want to go, then come and work overtime with me!

If you want to be lazy, forget it.

As senior officials of the empire, Smith and several deputy directors are qualified to take the VIP train.

This train carriage not only has the best location, luxurious decoration, advanced service, but also the largest space.

Usually, people would rather run with the train empty, and those who are not of sufficient status don't even think about it.

Smith has been the director for a year, and he has never traveled far.

The last time he took a train was to go back to his hometown for the New Year. At that time, he couldn't afford to buy an expensive first-class sleeper, but only bought a second-class sleeper ticket. There were four people in a small compartment, and the environment was crowded.

This time, the independent bedroom even had an independent bathroom, and the small restaurant was open at any time, which was extremely comfortable.

This journey was like an enjoyment, and the pain of the long journey was reduced to the extreme.

This made him realize again how important power is.

If he hadn't been appointed as the director of the Power Department by His Majesty, he would never be able to take this special train in his life.

After arriving at Port Degen safely, the secretary carried the suitcase and Director Smith got off the train empty-handed.

The separate platform was separated, and there was no passage for ordinary passengers to enter and exit.

"But Director Smith from the imperial capital?"

Someone suddenly shouted, and the Power Department looked over and saw a young man in formal clothes coming over.

The other party's eyes stayed on Deputy Director Martin for a moment, and then fell on Director Smith in the middle of the crowd.

"I am David, the receptionist of the customs, and I have been ordered to pick up the adults of the power department."

"It's me." Smith nodded, guessing that it was probably arranged by that Lord Andrew.

Obviously, the power department sold the customs a face, and the other party also reciprocated and gave enough face.

Seeing that he confirmed his identity, David stretched out his hand and guided: "Please follow me, the car is ready, everyone should have a good rest today, and the director will personally receive you tomorrow."

Everyone then realized that five cars drove up on the platform.

As the richest unit, the imperial customs has always been world-famous for its generosity.

Smith and others also felt it.

The group got on the car, and Martin sat with Smith on purpose.

Then they checked into the hotel. Considering that they had just traveled a long distance, they did not arrange any activities, just rest.

The next day, after breakfast, David was waiting.

The group followed him to the hotel again, and the Customs Commissioner Andrew was waiting for them.

Smith was shocked when he saw the emperor's second uncle, the long-famous Customs Commissioner.

The other party was tall, leaning on a civilized stick, wearing gorgeous clothes, with gemstone beads on his left hand and tortoise shells and other accessories on his right hand.

Even Smith's ten-year salary could not afford the dress.

His first reaction was how much money this person had embezzled.

But on second thought, he was the emperor's second uncle, and there were many ways to make money without being greedy.

Andrew was very enthusiastic and entertained the guests from the imperial capital with a red face.

He was also old, and he had money and power in the past few years, so he couldn't help but think about his children and grandchildren.

The officials of the Electricity Bureau had a bright future, so he took this opportunity to make some friends with them.

Besides, he couldn't refuse to say hello this time, and the Electricity Bureau was very considerate and made the decision on the same day, so he had to return the favor.

Halfway through the meal, Andrew took the initiative to say, "The location of the Electricity Bureau is easy to say. Our customs has a number of industries, one of which is a building with a good location, right in the center of the city, and it is just right to sell it to you as a branch."

The local snake of the customs has amazing power.

He said yes, no, and no.

Smith immediately stood up to thank him. If he could solve the housing problem, it would save a lot of trouble.

After the banquet was over, the two sides dispersed and agreed to contact each other more in the future.

...

Andrew didn't drink much today. After he got older, he deliberately took care of his body.

When he was poor, he didn't care about his body. Anyway, living one more day would make him suffer one more day.

But now that he has a good life, of course he has to live a few more days.

After receiving the Electricity Bureau, Andrew got a bad news.

"Pirates? Viscount Barin Rad's ship was hijacked?"

He thought it was funny. Although pirates at sea were rampant, they were just small-scale and insignificant. After all, the strength of the Imperial Navy was there.

But those pirates could only bully small merchants and it was easy for them to capsize.

But who is Barin? His father is Earl Connor, a ruthless man who confronted the Emperor head-on. Later, he defected in time and remained a first-line noble after the establishment of the empire.

Even the cunning rabbit has three burrows. After the separation, the Rad family became more powerful.

And they were the first batch of nobles to engage in maritime trade. They had people and ships under their command. Who dared to hijack their ships?

After living for so long, Andrew's sensitivity was not exaggerated. His first reaction was that there was something fishy here.

"This matter has nothing to do with our customs, but send a telegram to my son first. I think something is wrong."

When things are abnormal, there must be a demon. When people are abnormal, there must be a knife.

These pirates don't have the guts to do this, but since something has happened, it must not be fake, so I have to be vigilant.

After all, the customs is responsible for collecting taxes and clearing customs, which has nothing to do with them.

Ruling the Imperial Navy means fulfilling their responsibilities.

Besides, even I know about it, there is no reason why the navy doesn't know.

In fact, Bahrain is furious at this time.

"What's going on? What's the situation with this ship? Why did it go out to sea without my knowledge?"
