Chapter 280: Jiang Village Surveillance

~9 min read 1,701 words

At the request of the Political Department, Jiang Yuan and the other officers took a group photo with the victim's family and held up a silk banner together. Once all the ceremonies were over, Jiang Yuan felt a bit reluctant to go home.

He took out his phone, searched for travel destinations on a video app, and called his old man. "Dad, do you want to go on a trip?"

"Sure, where do you want to go?" Jiang Fujian, who was drinking a little wine alone in the kitchen, responded immediately.

"Guangxia, I guess." Jiang Yuan stated the location and said, "I'll buy the tickets? You head over to Changyang now."

"Alright." Jiang Fujian was the type to leave as soon as he said so. He gave a heads-up to Uncle Qiang, called Auntie Hua over to help finish boiling the meat and give it away, then took the elevator to the basement, where Jiang Yongxin's Alphard was already waiting.

By evening, Jiang Yuan and his father were already on a direct flight to Guangxia.

"Why the sudden urge to travel? Is work not going well?" Jiang Fujian changed into his slippers, covered his legs with a small blanket, and began chatting comfortably with his son.

Jiang Yuan drank some water to moisten his lips and said, "Work is actually going quite smoothly. I solved a cold case, caught a pair of murderers, and notified the victim's family. The victim's husband and son were crying especially bitterly."

Jiang Yuan shook his head and added, "I rarely used to meet with victims' families before. Sigh..."

Jiang Fujian patted his son's shoulder and sighed softly. He wasn't very good at comforting people; aside from giving money, he had almost no particularly handy skills for soothing others.

The sound of the plane's engines grew faint.

Listening to the noise inside the cabin, Jiang Yuan fell asleep with peace of mind. For the next few days, Jiang Yuan and his father wandered around Guangxia, eating, drinking, and roaming about.

Once they had their fill of fun, the two took a flight back.

Jiang Yuan also returned to Ningtai County with him.

Upon arriving at their doorstep, he saw workers setting up an extension ladder next to the tall streetlamp, installing a surveillance camera.

"Setting up surveillance?" Jiang Yuan had V3-level technical defense construction knowledge, so he saw it at a glance.

Jiang Fujian nodded and said, "They say it's going to be built all the way to the highway entrance. From now on, those who steal electric scooters won't be able to steal them anymore."

"You even know about this?" Jiang Yuan was surprised.

"I heard it from Jiang Yongxin. Doesn't he run two shops and sell electric scooters on the side?" Jiang Fujian smiled and walked slowly past the extension ladder.

Jiang Yuan watched very carefully.

The foundation of a surveillance system is the installation of cameras.

Theoretically speaking, the more cameras installed, the better the effect.

Moreover, it's not like what ordinary people imagine, where one camera can cover a huge area and meet all kinds of needs. In reality, cameras are often single-function. If it can shoot far, it's not good at shooting details; if it shoots down from a high place, it can't see the situation in one's hands clearly.

Wanting to create a surveillance city with all-around, dead-angle-free coverage is actually extremely difficult.

Take Beijing West Railway Station as an example: it has 1,200 cameras. Not to mention how complex the system formed by this is, just ask: how many people would it take, and how much time would they need to spend, to review the footage from 1,200 cameras?

Or if it's just stored without being reviewed, then the value would be greatly reduced.

Ningtai County certainly can't reach that level of surveillance system; point defense is almost its only choice.

Even this was all foreign aid that Jiang Yuan had sold. Relying on Ningtai County's own fiscal revenue, it's feared they wouldn't be able to allocate so many resources within two or three years.

"Taking the police recruitment exam in Ningtai County this year would be easy." Jiang Yuan recalled the scene of his own exam and clicked his tongue twice. A video surveillance system of this scale would at least require the establishment of an image investigation squadron to be barely usable.

To use it well, it would likely require an image investigation brigade. Of course, the county's image investigation brigade doesn't need to be on the scale of the criminal police brigade; with a normal configuration of two or three squadrons, plus a few internal affairs personnel, fifty or sixty, or seventy or eighty people, they could fully utilize the county's surveillance system.

This is also the current trend in police stations: the scale of criminal police brigades is getting smaller and smaller, replaced by the construction and expansion of special police brigades, patrol police brigades, cyber security brigades, and image investigation brigades.

Not to mention anything else, telecommunications fraud cases already account for one-half of all newly reported cases. If it weren't for the fact that many telecommunications fraud cases involve foreign countries, making it difficult for city and county levels to handle, the cyber security brigade would originally have at least...

"With these cameras, solving cases will be even simpler for you, right?" Ever since his son became a police officer, Jiang Fujian's thinking pattern had changed.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Probably. However, for premeditated crimes, they'll just find other places. Like the current homicides, the place where most crimes are committed is private residences. I'll have Uncle Qiang strengthen the unit doors later, and the garage too; it needs to be made safer." Jiang Fujian felt a bit chilled hearing this; he was overly wealthy and also knew he belonged to a high-risk group.

Jiang Yuan agreed with this very much. After returning home, he specially made a meal of dog food for the two Dobermans.

From a security perspective, some fully automatic equipment really might not compare to these fully automatic fierce dogs.

Compared to when they were first brought in, the two dogs' size and appetite had increased quite a bit.

But their craving for Level 5 dog food had never changed. Watching the scene of the two dogs eating frantically, Uncle Qiang even felt a bit of self-doubt: "I usually make things for them to eat too... these two dog things..."

Jiang Yuan could only comfort Uncle Qiang: "It might be because of the 'hand's touch'."

"That's not it, I've eaten the dog food you made... I mean I've eaten it before, it's truly delicious, but not to the point of making two dogs this excited..." Uncle Qiang clearly couldn't fully understand the joy of dogs.

Jiang Yuan laughed, changed the subject, and said, "Uncle Qiang, the wrestling I learned from you last time, I've practiced it in my spare time recently. Let's spar again."

"No problem." Uncle Qiang agreed instantly, wiped the oil from his mouth with his sleeve, laid out a few thick yoga mats in the center of the living room, and began to spar with Jiang Yuan.

30 minutes later, Jiang Yuan was covered in pain from being thrown and paused the practice.

"Not bad. If you really encounter an enemy, stay calm. Ordinary petty thieves shouldn't be able to hurt you."

Uncle Qiang said, then emphasized: "I'm talking about the kind without weapons."

"What about with weapons?"

"Haven't you seen the videos online? Turning around and running is the right move." Uncle Qiang said, then added: "If you feel there's danger, carry a telescopic baton or something with you. Having a weapon or not is completely different. The best thing is to have people with you; walk with three or four people together. Even if the opponent has a gun, they'll have to weigh whether their bullets are enough."

Jiang Fujian's eyebrows furrowed as he listened: "Should we hire a security company?"

"Hiring a security company to protect police officers isn't necessary, but let's build a surveillance system in our village too." Jiang Yuan had considered this plan before. Compared to Qinghe Academy, setting up surveillance for the Jiang Village residential area had an even lower difficulty coefficient.

Jiang Fujian said indifferently: "If you want to do it, do it. Is it the kind where you set up a security room and then watch the surveillance?"

"More complex than that. I think we can build a security company."

"Not hire an existing one?" Uncle Qiang was a bit surprised.

Jiang Fujian and Jiang Yuan shook their heads in unison.

Jiang Village residential area is truly wealthy. If they really set up the entire residential area's security and handed it over to outsiders, no one would feel at ease.

That night.

Jiang Fujian boiled a sheep, steamed some seafood, and called over Third Uncle, Fifth Uncle, and several other Jiang Village peers who got along well.

In Jiang Village, the several elders were indeed the old-generation decision-makers with greater influence. But the ones who actually did things were Jiang Fujian's generation.

Jiang Fujian talked it over with several brothers and cousins, and the subsequent matters became very simple.

Over the next two days, Jiang Fujian ate sheep with several groups of people again, and then convened a grand meeting for the villagers.

Jiang Village held grand meetings frequently.

Even for some daily affairs, such as parking lot leasing, property leasing, ancestral worship expenses, etc., all involved huge amounts of money, so holding meetings was actually a highly efficient way to solve things. However, when it really came to doing things, Jiang Village people didn't need to go through bidding, selecting companies, etc., like in the county. Once Jiang Fujian and the others talked it over, they directly found people to come and construct it. After one round, the project progress was actually faster than the county's surveillance system.

Especially for the security company, recruiting employees was more than 8 times faster than in the county.

In less than a week in total, Jiang Yuan saw the 6 newly hired young people in the newly built "Jiang Village Security Surveillance Room" downstairs. ===== CHAPTER 281 =====
