Chapter 46: Director of Police Services and Director of Academic Services (Please add to the reading list)

"You've done very well!" Joseph looked approvingly at Frient, "Continue enrolling students and pick out those with excellent qualifications and ambition to form an 'Elite Class' for focused training.

"Also, given that the police academy is just being established, it can make do for now, but it shouldn't stay this way forever. Prioritize building new school buildings, purchasing training equipment, and supplies. Oh, and use the Paris Military Academy as the standard; it can only be better, not worse. I'll allocate 250,000 livres to you for now..."

Upon hearing this figure, Frient's heart leapt; such a large sum of money wasn't just for building a school to train minor police officers—it was almost enough to establish a proper military school!

However, Joseph, as if to test the resilience of his heart, continued, "This is just the initial construction budget. I plan to invest over a million in total. After everything is built, the enrollment size should exceed 3,000 students."
