Chapter 143: Chapter 120 Listing Ceremony_2

Secretary Chen realized that he too had become the target of his "extortion," and in the presence of Director Feng, Chief Tang and Director Chen, he couldn’t just do nothing, especially since the money he was asking for was for handling a case, to safeguard the economic development of Linghai.

"Is it that the case handling funds are insufficient?"

"Secretary Chen, if the county committee and county government could allocate twenty to thirty thousand special funds for this case, I guarantee to make this case solid as iron."

"That shouldn’t be a problem. Please have your department draft a report, and I will talk to County Magistrate Lu for you."

"Thank you, Secretary Chen."

"No need to thank me, you are also working for a cause."

Although it cost him a bit of money, Secretary Chen was pleased, thinking to himself that he had given you money, so don’t give me that sour face anymore, and definitely don’t say anything about "sending off several county leaders" in front of others.

At this moment, Director Zhong arrived, accompanied by Director Yang, Commissioner Ding, and Scholar Yu, and everyone quickly went up to greet and chat warmly.

The achievements of Yanjiang Police Station are also the achievements of Linghai Police Bureau.

The achievements of Linghai Police Bureau are equally the achievements of City Bureau. Moreover, the City Bureau’s Water Police Team also participated in the capture operation last night.

Among all the leaders, Director Zhong was the happiest. Upon seeing Xu Sanye, he smiled and said, "Comrade Xu Sanye, on the way here I only knew that you had a major operation last night. It was only after hearing the report from Director Yang that I found out that last night, you had action both on the inland river and the river, catching over twenty criminals here while rescuing over twenty crew members there. Well done!"

Sister Zhu took the opportunity to whisper a few words to Director Feng.

Director Feng nodded and turned to smile, saying: "Director Zhong, we just received calls from Tianjin City Transportation Bureau and Yangzhou City’s Third Shipping Company. They learned that Yanjiang Police Station and our Port Supervision risked their lives to rescue their personnel and vessels, and they expressed their gratitude, planning to have someone come over to present us with a banner."

"Risked their lives?"

"The weather conditions in the Dacang waters were very harsh last night. The wind on the river reached level five, with high waves and thick fog. The visibility was less than twenty meters, and standing at the stern you couldn’t see the bow. Our Supervision Boat couldn’t leave the port, otherwise we wouldn’t have called in Director Xu’s Law Enforcement Rescue Boat."

"Director Feng, this means the main work was done by our police!"

"Our law enforcement officers were also on the Law Enforcement Rescue Boat, and our Traffic Control Center along with Dacang Port Supervision Station’s colleagues didn’t sleep all night. Especially the colleagues from Dacang Port Supervision Station, they are still organizing rescues on the river now."

"I don’t care about that, I only know that our officers risked their lives to protect the public’s safety and property, and they deserve recognition. If we don’t recognize them, how can we inspire morale? Comrade Sanye, isn’t this reasonable?"

"Director Zhong, not only has Director Feng praised us, but he also provided us with funding and advanced equipment."

"Director Feng, you really dug a corner well by bypassing our City Bureau to recruit our grassroots comrades. Do you think the county officials are more approachable?"

"Director Zhong, what are you talking about? Besides, you’re not a county official, the county governor is right here."

...

The leaders joked and laughed, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

Director Ge felt much more relieved, thinking that Xu Sanye wouldn’t act out in this setting.

The dunship was rather small, with only two duty cum office rooms available for visiting. The detention and interrogation rooms weren’t much to look at.

In normal times, one could visit the communal dormitory to see how well internal affairs were managed.

But today was not a normal day. Four officers from Scholar Yu’s Water Police Department First Team and Second Squad participated in the night’s capture operation and didn’t rest until dawn; the young men were still sleeping and should not be disturbed.

The second floor only had the command dispatch room and meeting room available for visiting. The dormitories were not only uninteresting but also locked and inaccessible.

There were too many people to fit in all at once.

Director Ge, Commissioner Ding, Li Weiguo, Zhang Junyan and others could only stand in the corridor.

Boss Wu and his partners couldn’t come up and had to wait in the hallway on the first floor.

Xu Sanye, like a tour guide, introduced the advanced equipment and achievements of Yanjiang Police Station since its establishment.

Scholar Yu reported on the work of the Water Police Division (Water Police Team).

Sister Zhu, representing Port Supervision Bureau, reported on the work and accomplishments since the "joint office administration" with Yanjiang Police Station.

Seeing two plaques on the command console, one labeled "Police" and the other labeled "Port Supervision", Director Feng was very happy and satisfied.

Director Chen of Binjiang Port Police Station joked, "Director Zhong, Secretary Chen, it’s a pity the dunship is so small. If it were bigger, it could be like those municipal authorities across the river, ’attracting investment’, allowing entities like Fishery Administration and other water law enforcement departments to reside, and co-operating with Yanjiang Police Station like Port Supervision Bureau in joint office administration and joint case handling."

"That’s a good idea, but the primary focus of Fishery Administration’s work isn’t on the river. Their main operational focus is on the sea."

"The operational focus of Fishery Administration may be on the sea, but our Customs’ focus is on the river."

Chief Tang looked back and smiled, "Director Xu, can you also make a plaque for us, arrange a position, so if in the future we need to combat smuggling in nearby waters, our law enforcement officers could come over to use your radio for frontline command?"

Xu Sanye gestured grandly, "No problem, the position is ready, and I’ll arrange for someone to make the plaque this afternoon."

Director Zhong was amused, pulling Secretary Chen by the arm to point at the large air conditioner and big color TV in the corner, laughing, "Secretary Chen, look, there’s a real difference between giving money and not.
