Chapter 97: Chapter 88 Joint Operation, Affiliation_2"Xiao Han, do you know Salted Fish?" "Staff Xiao, we were classmates!" "I almost forgot, you both graduated from the Shipping School." The towing test was conducted at the dock, and Director Dong was busy instructing Captain Wang and Old Zhang on precautionary measures during the test. A staff member from the ship inspection department was busy directing Zhu Baogen and Liang Xiaoyu to tie the towing cables, while another one was busy installing a mechanical load meter. Han Yu was about to help when he suddenly noticed Xu Sanye and Zhang Junyan laughing and talking with two strangers; they looked very happy, and ended up going together to the Bailong Port Police Station. Staff Xiao followed his gaze and asked, "Salted Fish, don’t you know them?" "I don’t know them, never seen them." "The skinny one is Director Yu from the Water Security Department of Binjiang Police Department, the tall one is Deputy Director Wei from the Port District Bureau." "What are they here for?" "I’m not sure, they came after me, I just heard Director Xu say that they were led here from your station to the shipyard, and then from the shipyard to the ship lock." Suddenly, two leaders arrived; they must be friends of the station chief. If it were official business, even if Director Yang couldn’t accompany them, Master Ding would. As Han Yu was pondering what to say, Liang Xiaoyu brought over the walkie-talkie, "Salted Fish, Director Xu is looking for you." Salted Fish is one thing, but turned into dried fish... Han Xiangning couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Han Yu felt incredibly awkward and quickly raised the walkie-talkie, "Director Xu, Director Xu, this is Han Yu, any instructions?" "It’s eleven o’clock, let’s have lunch first, we’ll continue the towing test after lunch. Please ask Director Dong and Staff Xiao to go to Bailong Port Restaurant first, I’ll be there soon." "Roger that!" Work is important, but so is eating. Following Xu Sanye’s arrangements in the morning, Han Yu let Zhu Baogen and Liang Xiaoyu stay at the dock to watch the boat, and informed the instructor who had just come from the 002 to ask Director Dong and others to come ashore first. ... Meanwhile, Xu Sanye sat in Zhang Junyan’s office, smiled at Director Yu from the Water Security Department and asked, "Scholar Yu, what brought you here on an informal visit?" S~eaʀᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Not welcome?" "It’s not that you’re not welcome, mainly because you’re a leader from the City Bureau, it’s not appropriate for you to bypass levels and come to me directly." Director Yu glanced at Director Wei, who was silently smiling, took out today’s Binjiang Daily from his briefcase, "I saw from the newspaper that your department established a Yanjiang Police Station, and I also learned from the newspaper that you are now the Yanjiang Police Station Chief. You made such a big move quietly, so I thought, since I was free, I’d come and see." The funding for the County Police Bureau comes from county finance, decisions on personnel other than the bureau chief are made by the county. It’s said to be a system of departmental management, but it’s actually primarily block management. Xu Sanye doesn’t believe that the City Bureau’s Water Security Department has jurisdiction over Yanjiang Police Station, jokingly asked, "You have come, but why did you bring Old Wei along?" "We’ve only met a few times before, not much interaction. You’re close with Old Wei, of course, I should bring Old Wei along." "Does that mean you don’t welcome me?" Director Wei asked in faux displeasure. Xu Sanye grinned, "How could I not welcome you? It’s just that there’s a lot to handle today, can’t accompany you for drinks." Zhang Junyan handed out cigarettes while smiling, "Director Xu, I’m not too busy today, let me keep Director Wei and Director Yu company." Although Xu Sanye hadn’t interacted much with Director Yu, he was quite familiar with him. To be precise, this gentleman is too well-known in the City Bureau to go unnoticed. He was among the first batch of university students after the restoration of the college entrance examination, graduated from the Southwest Political and Legal College, and was the most educated officer in the Binjiang Police Department. He is very talented, and was placed in the Secretary Department to handle materials writing as soon as he joined the department. Ideally, someone with his high education and visibility should have a promising career, but because he was too talented and wrote excellent materials, several leaders couldn’t do without him. Because of his talent, he initially looked down on department heads and colleagues, and later due to constant lack of promotion, he looked down on department leaders too, which soured his relationships in the department. However, speaking of which, many of his classmates have assumed leadership positions, while he was still writing materials, and the City Bureau really wronged him a bit. Despite offending every possible leader and colleague, the bureau leaders still didn’t want to let him go, who would write materials if he left. So, he was transferred from the Secretary Department to the head of the Water Security Department. The Police Department was formidable, and adding "Water" made it even more special. Though Binjiang is next to the Yangtze River and is the largest inland port, the port belongs to the Ministry of Transport and the Port Authority has its own police department; the City Bureau doesn’t manage the river’s security, nor does it bother to. Besides the Yangtze River, the inland waterways are very extensive, it is, after all, a region of water networks. Not to mention, within the boundaries of Linghai alone, the big and small rivers twist and turn, accumulating hundreds of kilometers. With many points and long lines, it’s impractical to position the Water Police Station anywhere, so most districts simply do not establish one. Because of this, other departments might be idle, but at least they can pass orders up and down. The Water Security Department, however, due to the absence of dedicated water security management in the districts, only has upwards communication but no downwards direction. Including himself, the head of the department, there are only two people. The main work was still helping the department to write materials, attending meetings related to water security when necessary. It is said that once during a provincial meeting, the attendees representing other city bureaus were all chiefs from the Water Police Divisions, only he, as the head of the Water Security Department attended, thinking more and more frustratingly, he went back and approached the bureau leaders.
