Chapter 29 - 27 Party A and Party B

Chapter 29: Chapter 27 Party A and Party BThe five-day deadline arrived, and the people of Bailong Port truly realized just how wild Xu Sanye could be. He personally led the team, accompanied by Li Weiguo, Old Zhang, and the policemen from the Bailong Port Police Station such as Old Liu and Old Hu. Riding tricycles, driving jeeps, and sounding police sirens, they went from door to door to those who did not take the notice for self-surrender seriously, handcuffing the old men and women to the Police Station. One elderly lady was terrified and confessed her guilt as soon as she arrived at the station. However, it was already too late. Her illegal income was confiscated, she was fined two hundred yuan, and detained for six days. An old man continued to be unruly upon reaching the station and was sent straight to the detention center, detained for fifteen days first. There was another old man who was not a local. He came over in '81 and had been doing odd jobs in several warehouses, helping with loading and unloading. Later, he got involved with a local widow. The two did not register their marriage, and just managed to get by together. Judging by his accent, he seemed to be from Dongshan, but no matter how much he was pressed, he refused to disclose his hometown. Not only was his illegal income confiscated, and he was fined two hundred yuan, he was also sent for custody and investigation until his identity was clarified and confirmed that he had no prior offenses before he could be released. An elderly woman, claiming she was suffering from several diseases and acting arrogantly, claimed she had no money but one life to give. She shouted that she was not afraid of jail, saying that being in prison would be like the government taking care of her in old age. Investigations had already been done on her side, and it was known she was notoriously difficult and indeed had many illnesses, requiring a multitude of medications a day. The detention center would most likely not accept her, but this would not be a problem for Xu Sanye. Article 8 of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, which officially came into effect on January 1 of this year, clearly states that if a person who violates public order has no capacity for conduct or limited capacity, and cannot afford compensation or cover the costs, their guardian shall be legally responsible for the compensation or costs. Therefore, her three sons were summoned to the Police Station. Others' illegal income was calculated by the total number of times they had sold the tickets and how much money they had made, but her case was different. Her calculations started from the first time she assisted scalpers in buying tickets. Evidence showed that she started two and a half years ago and up to the 17th of this month, a total of eight hundred sixty-seven days. Assuming she made a profit of two yuan from each ticket sold per day, she would need to be confiscated of income totaling one thousand seven hundred thirty-four yuan. In addition, with a public security fine of two hundred yuan, the total comes to one thousand nine hundred thirty-four yuan, to be split among her three sons! If they refuse to accept the penalty, see you in court. If the court decided and they still refuse to pay up, what awaited them was enforcement or even detention. Moreover, her second son had a son, namely her grandson, who happened to intend to join the army. Conscription was imminent, and if the debts of the mother were not settled by the son, it was time to visit her second son's house to see how her grandson's political review would turn out, to see if the troop recruitment officers would accept him. To queue every day, earning less than five hundred yuan, and now facing a penalty of nearly two thousand yuan, she returned home only to face the complaints of her children... The old lady was filled with remorse, not daring to make any more trouble, slumped to the ground, and wailed loudly. Xu Sanye was not about to soften his heart; dealing with such obstinate people meant he couldn't detain her, so he had to impose a heavy fine. Otherwise, one would learn from another, and soon all the local elderly would start selling boat tickets, ruining the great situation they had worked so hard to establish. It's worth mentioning that with the strong strike from the Yanjiang Police Station, those who were previously not in control involving in the ticket scalping became aware that it was vain to wish for luck, and hurried to turn themselves in. This resulted in being busy again just after two days of quiet. Xu Sanye had just sent away a person who came to turn themselves in when Li Weiguo knocked and entered. "Director Xu, the office notified me that there's a meeting at two o'clock in the afternoon in the large conference room on the third floor. All heads of departments, chiefs of the Criminal Investigation, chiefs of the Traffic Police, police station chiefs, Detention Center Directors, and the internal staff of all the departments should attend." "I'm busy right now, I don't have time for a meeting." Xu Sanye organized the records he just made and, thinking disdainfully, said, "Important meetings have few people, meetings with many people are not important. Just send Old Zhang over." He was forty-two this year, not that old, but he had seniority in the police department. Having served as the deputy head of the Human Protection Group for so many years, the director's office had once been his. Later, after spending several years as the chief of the Criminal Investigation, not only did several department heads and station chiefs work under him, but even Director Ding, Director Chen, and Director Wang had been led by him. Whenever he went to the department, it was awkward for the leaders. Having been his subordinates sitting on the stage while he, the former leader, sat below; he found it just as uncomfortable. Thus, for these past few years, unless the meeting was particularly important, the department generally would not inform him. Even if informed, he was equally reluctant to attend, either taking leave or asking others to attend on his behalf. Li Weiguo, knowing that he did not want to go, reminded him, "Director Wei said Director Yang specifically requested your presence, and besides, the station has me. You should really go." "Director Yang specifically asked for me to attend?" "That's what Director Wei told me." Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "They even require the admin staff to attend, interesting." Xu Sanye lit a cigarette, contemplated, and laughed, "It must be about money, looks like being too prominent is attracting trouble." Li Weiguo shared the sentiment and said meaningfully, "Then you should definitely go." Xu Sanye took a few quick puffs of his cigarette and then picked up the walkie-talkie: "Salted Fish, Salted Fish, this is Xu Sanye, respond if you hear me." "Director Xu, what's up?" "Have Manager Wu come over, tell him to bring that technician surnamed Zhou, and some blank contracts as well, not forgetting the official seal." The station was only making use of Boss Wu's place to repair the ship, not building a ship at Boss Wu's facility. What he wanted Boss Wu and Master Zhou to do together, and why he wanted the contracts and official seal... As Han Yu was puzzled, Xu Sanye continued, "Then visit the riverside gas station, invite the person in charge there to bring the official seal and some blank contracts over as well. If you don't know them, find Director Zhang, Director Zhang is familiar with them." Li Weiguo realized what he was going to do, and was momentarily stunned. Xu Sanye put down the walkie-talkie, looked up, and said, "Old Li, you went on investigations for consecutive ten days before. Food and goods are expensive on the ship and East Sea. Your trip allowance is calculated at ten yuan a day." Ten yuan a day in allowance, which amounted to a hundred yuan for ten days, was equivalent to a month's salary! But those ten days were truly exhausting, with endless record-keeping and even sleeping was a luxury. Li Weiguo felt that this was deserved, and it was not taking advantage of the public, he couldn't help but laugh: "Director Xu, we went away for ten days, but you weren't idle at home either." "There's no allowance if I don't go on a business trip, everything is done according to regulations." The two veterans originally came to Yanjiang Police Station to retire, but they ended up suffering with me, I must consider the old comrades. Xu Sanye smiled and added: "Then there's the reward salary. There are clear regulations from the superiors that personnel who have made outstanding achievements at work can be awarded more. You go through the documents, apply according to the detailed rules issued by the county and department, and then have Old Zhang make a form together with the travel allowance, I'll bring it over in the afternoon." Now the salary is composed of four parts: basic salary, position salary, seniority allowance, and reward salary. Basic salary is the same for everyone from director to the police, which is thirty-nine and a half. Position salary varies greatly with administrative level, with the same being Full Department Level, some can get one hundred and four, while others only sixty-one. The seniority allowance is not much, adding fifty cents for every year of work. Reward salary is what is commonly known as a bonus, the highest in one year cannot exceed one hundred. In order to motivate the enthusiasm of the police and also to generate income in accordance with the law, the department has introduced corresponding reward policies for confiscated fines, the highest in a year cannot exceed one hundred either. Everyone lives in reality, and lives tightly. Li Weiguo and Old Zhang had calculated this the day before yesterday, seeing Xu Sanye mention it now, he hesitated for a moment and said: "If according to the department's documents, it would be too much." "How much?" "Our achievements this time are so big, if it is according to the documents, both the reward salary and the department's bonus could reach the cap." Xu Sanye asked again: "How much is the cap?" Li Weiguo smiled and said: "Reward salary one hundred, bonus also one hundred." Xu Sanye tapped the ash from his cigarette, looking somewhat disappointed, and said: "I thought it would be more, together it's only two hundred, just apply for it, this kind of opportunity is rare and not available every month." "Others will be jealous!" "This is what we have earned with our ability; if anyone is jealous, let them go do it!" Xu Sanye snorted coldly, then said: "The bricklayers we looked for a few days ago haven't shown up to this day, they are busy, right? Then find someone else. Old Zhang is familiar with Four Factory Construction Station, have Old Zhang contact Four Factory Construction Station immediately, and ask someone to come over quickly." This is planning to spend money in a rush! Although the money hasn't been received, the contract can be signed first. Even if the construction can't be started in time, materials can be ordered in advance, the department has to acknowledge it when the time comes. As the instructor of Yanjiang Police Station, Li Weiguo must support Xu Sanye and asked in a low voice: "Just building a reception room and a kitchen, isn't it too exaggerated to find a construction station?" "Who said we're only building a reception room and a kitchen?" Xu Sanye counter-questioned and said casually: "The wall is too low, needs to be demolished and rebuilt. We are a Police Station; we can't not have a detention room, we must build two. The small pier by the river needs to be renovated, and it has to be decent." Li Weiguo couldn't help but smile and asked: "Anything else?" Xu Sanye thought for a moment and asked: "Where does Bailong Port Pier get its electricity from?" "It should also be from the power supply bureau, but they have a dedicated line, which is not managed by Four Factory Electric Power Station; the electricity bill is paid directly to the power supply bureau." "I'll call Zhang Junyan to ask about it." ... Han Yu invited Station Chief Huang from the riverside gas station to the office, then returned to the shipyard to continue repairing the ships. Usually, work continues until about 11:30, even if the Director doesn't call for lunch on the intercom, Old Qian will come over and call. Today was a bit strange, it was already 11:45, and there was still no word from the intercom, and Old Qian hadn't come over and called either. After tidying up, he washed his hands and was ready to go back to see what was going on when Boss Wu and the shipyard's only engineer, Master Zhou, came back with beaming smiles. "Manager Wu, Master Zhou, what's making you so happy?" "Your Director gave me a big order!" "What kind of order, how big?" "Take a look and you'll know." Boss Wu opened his briefcase, took out a stack of contracts with fresh seal ink, and said excitedly: "Your Director trusts me and thinks highly of me. I must ensure the schedule and quality, I can't make it difficult for him, and I definitely can't let others talk behind his back, so I set the profit margin very low." Han Yu took over the contract, and he was shocked when he saw it. Xu Sanye actually commissioned him to build an eighty-ton Dunship, and to construct a floating bridge using Iron Float Boxes. Looking at the hand-drawn but seemingly official drafts from Master Zhou, the Dunship Xu Sanye wanted wasn't just a metal shell without power. He even wanted two floors built on top, and the rooftop needed a conspicuous sign with a large police emblem, the words "police" and "Water 110." Considering the Dunship would be too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter at the riverside, the cabins on the ship needed insulation materials and required an air conditioning unit, with two additional units to be installed on the Law Enforcement Ship. Air conditioning for the Dunship, air conditioning for the Law Enforcement Rescue Boat, spare parts needed for ship repairs, and future installations of rescue, firefighting, and other equipment would all be entrusted to Boss Wu for procurement. From building to procurement, including construction, all entrusted to Boss Wu. The deadline was set for three months, with a budget of two hundred and fifty thousand, and the final cost would be determined by a professional. Stunned, Han Yu mumbled for a while and then said: "It really is a big order; Director Xu has bold vision, he is acting as the client here!" Sitting at home and still receiving orders, really can't block the fortune coming his way. Boss Wu, in high spirits from the good news, laughed heartily: "You're right, I'm the party B, your Director Xu is my party A."
