Chapter 182: Chapter 145 Binjiang Water Police!_2"First, who takes the lead in this matter: can the Agricultural Bureau lead the Police Bureau, or can the Police Bureau lead the Agricultural Bureau, not to mention leading the Binjiang Port Supervision Bureau under the Yangtze River Port and Navigation Supervision Bureau of the Ministry of Transport, and the Customs which has nothing to do with this at all." The director of the Agricultural Bureau was at a loss for words. Director Zhong buttoned up his overcoat and nodded repeatedly. The director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau had a grave expression, as if he was deeply reflecting. Director Feng acted as if he had not heard that the Port Supervision Bureau was not under the city’s jurisdiction. The Port Authority is under the Ministry of Transport, on the same level as the municipality, and is the biggest "victim". Passenger ships are delayed or even canceled, cargo ships cannot dock, and the terminals cannot operate. Secretary Miao of the Port Authority subconsciously looked at Director Chen of the Binjiang Port Police Station and noticed that Director Chen was staring at Zhang Junyan’s hands, frozen like steamed buns. He almost wronged these "security guards", it seems they do more than just collect salaries from the Port Authority... Secretary Miao felt somewhat guilty, silently reminding himself to always conduct investigations and research before acting and not to jump to conclusions. Mayor Cao found himself leading a group of dumb wooden blocks, which made him even more furious, and coldly asked: "Comrade Xiang Qian Yu, this joint operation is led by your Water Police Division. Tell me, why has it been delayed until today, and why, instead of regulating illegal eel fishing ships in the Binjiang Waters, did you run to Jiangyin Waters for joint law enforcement?" Finally having the opportunity to speak, awaiting this very question. Scholar Yu took a deep breath, spoke with full confidence: "Reporting to Mayor Cao, our Water Police Division did not lead the organization nor do we have the authority to lead the joint law enforcement action aimed at rectifying illegal eel fishing." "What are you doing now then!" "Reporting to Mayor Cao, on February 1st this year, when a fleet of ships was passing through the 26th anchorage in our Binjiang Waters, it was blocked by eight eel fishing boats. Despite horn warnings, the personnel engaged in illegal eel fishing did not heed the warning and instead mobbed up to rob the fleet’s supplies and beat the sailors." Scholar Yu sneakily glanced at Director Zhong, then continued: "We are the Water Police Division, our main business is to combat various waterborne crimes. After receiving the reports, we immediately initiated investigations, and after half a month of searching, we located the whereabouts of this criminal gang at 9 AM yesterday morning. Given that the gang’s personnel were far in the Jiangyin Waters, with eight fishing boats and a large number of people, also suspected of obstructing the waterway, destroying navigation marks, and fishing illegally, our division did not have enough law enforcement vessels, so we requested the Port Supervision Fishery Administration and even Customs to send enforcement personnel and vessels to assist." Priorities need to be sorted - capturing criminal gangs suspected of robbery and assault must be given primary importance. Mayor Cao nodded slightly, inquiring further, "Did you catch them?" "All forty-two suspects were apprehended, and on the way back from Jiangyin, we conducted a brief interrogation on the boat, and they confessed without any reservations to the crimes of robbing the fleet’s supplies and assaulting the sailors." "And then you just happened to assist the Fishery Administration and Port Supervision to regulate the eel fishing boats over here?" "Yes!" "Comrade Xiang Qian Yu, so you’re saying if there hadn’t been a robbery and assault on the crew, your Water Police Division wouldn’t have intervened." The mayor’s logic is intriguing, but from his perspective, this question is reasonable. Scholar Yu, well-prepared and neither humble nor arrogant, said: "Reporting to Mayor Cao, our main business is to combat various waterborne crimes, maintain water security, and ensure the safety of water transportation. Despite the mountain of cases we need to investigate, at this very moment, we still have over thirty suspects involved in monopolizing cargo handling at inland river terminals through violence, suspected of destroying navigation marks, and obstructing waterways locked up with no time to interrogate them. However, to ensure the safety of the Spring Festival transportation, our Binjiang Water Police still spared precious police force to assist the Port Supervision in regulating the order in the North Branch Channel of the Yangtze River. We even subsidized the fuel costs to escort passenger ferries like Bai Shen, Bai Liu, Bai Zhuang, and Bainiu Line!" It’s imperative to speak up for those who helped significantly. Although it’s really the Yanjiang Police Station of Linghai that helped, the officers there are also part of the Binjiang Water Police. Secretary Miao of the Port Authority coughed and said: "Mayor Cao, if it were not for the full support of the police, Bailong Port’s passenger transport would have been paralyzed a long time ago. It was their dispatch of people and law enforcement vessels that escorted the passenger ferries and ferries, and as of today, Bailong Port’s passenger and ferry services have only been delayed three times." "Escorting?" "Reporting to Mayor Cao, for passenger ferries like Bai Shen and Bai Liu, we used this very law enforcement rescue boat to escort them, and to drive off the vessels threatening navigation safety, we even resorted to using mortars to fire illumination rounds." Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Now, it was time for a poor mouth! Scholar Yu paused, speaking gravely: "Ten months ago, in all of Binjiang, there were only myself - Yu Xiangqian - and my subordinate Chen Zikun, sitting in the office as water police. Eight months ago, the Linghai Police Bureau set up the Water Police Team in Bailong Port. Including the officers over at Bailong Port, throughout Binjiang, we have only six water police officers. Two of them are about to retire, and one is a new police officer under sixteen years old, who is Little Salted Fish driving the boat in the pilothouse. To maintain good water security, especially on the river, I shamelessly borrowed an office at Bailong Port and huddled together with grassroots officers. After half a year of joint efforts, our Binjiang Water Police now have four law enforcement vessels including this modified and upgraded tugboat. To ensure the safety of the Spring Festival transport, and also to combat waterborne crimes, we divided forces into two groups: one has been floating on the river since the 25th of last month, escorting passenger and ferry services day and night."
