Chapter 264: Chapter 190 Bride Arrives_3

Port Supervision is port supervision. Even if she hasn’t officially entered the door, she is still Port Supervision, starting with an inspection!

Old Han was stunned and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Luo Yanfeng looked back at her daughter, who was smiling silently, hesitated and said, "There’s paint on the ship, we will repaint it after dinner."

"The port side of the bow also needs to be painted, it can’t be blocked by the tire like this side."

"Okay, we will paint it."

"Also, the port of registry at the stern has too small characters, and only the words ’Linghai Port’ have no pinyin."

"Is that so? We will repaint it after dinner and enlarge the characters at that time."

"The load line is also unclear; it would be best to delineate it a bit."

"Alright, as you say."

"Mom, why don’t you hang a black ball when anchoring?"

"We are waiting to unload the cargo, and besides, this is an inland river, not on the Yangtze River."

"Inland rivers or the Yangtze River, they’re the same, Mom, I’m not being meddling, I’m worried about you encountering strict law enforcement officers. If they go by the book, they will fine you whatever is due, regardless if you are waiting to unload cargo."

Old Han realized that his family’s new daughter-in-law was different from others, and quickly said, "Ningning, you are right. We will be careful in the future."

San’er being afraid of her is one thing.

Now, even her parents are frightened of her, acquiescing to her every word.

Han Ning realized that this sister-in-law will soon take over the household and will have much more authority than himself, covered his mouth fearing he might laugh out loud.

What surprised Han Ning more was, maybe there was nothing else to talk about, but after sitting down on the ship, the sister-in-law, like inspecting, wanted to see various inspection booklets and port entry and departure visas.

The old mom and dad had no choice but to comply and quickly flipped out a stack of paperwork.

Han Xiangning checked one booklet after another, helped organize them, and pointed out existing issues.

Next, she checked the light signals, and even tested Friend Han on water transportation regulations.

"Dad, I know you are an experienced pilot. But now the management of water transportation safety is getting stricter, if you continue to drive the boat like you used to, Port Supervision will discover it for sure and you will definitely get a fine."

"We will be careful in the future."

"Just being careful isn’t enough, you need to understand, how did you obtain your licenses?"

It was a short training session organized by the shipping company, a cadre from the Transportation Bureau with the papers for water traffic administration went to conduct the exam, almost like an open-book test...

In short, local port supervision is not as strict as the Transportation Department Port Supervisor.

Old Han looked embarrassed, unsure how to explain.

Luo Yanfeng, who did not have a high education level, also took part in the exams and got her license successfully, standing aside even more embarrassed, wanting to speak but not daring to.

Han Xiangning looked up at her future parents-in-law, pulled out a blank sheet of paper, and began writing and speaking as she wrote: "Dad, Mom, I will write down a mnemonic for lamp and signal flags for you to study in your spare time. You must remember it."

"Okay, we will look at it."

"Navigational lights on sailing ships; masthead lights on motor vessels; red and green sidelights and stern light for ships longer than fifty meters; add a rear stern light, two masthead lights at the front of the tugboat..."

After finishing, Han Xiangning drew a line under the mnemonic she had written and continued: "What I just described are the lights; now for the signals.

Anchor-hanging ships display a black ball, vessels out of control hang two balls vertically; three black balls vertically for aground, sweeping for mines three balls forming a triangle; one ball at each extreme end of the mast, towing greater than two hundred meters..."

Old Han grumbled inwardly that he understood all this but sometimes forgot to hang them, yet seeing the new daughter-in-law so serious, he could only nod repeatedly.

Luo Yanfeng really wanted to cook, but with the new daughter-in-law teaching a lesson, she didn’t dare leave without the daughter-in-law’s consent.

Father was very stubborn and often didn’t listen when spoken to, but now, dare not listen to the new daughter-in-law’s words?

Running a ship on the river, safety is very important; learning more couldn’t hurt, and at least it could reduce the fines.

Han Ning barely held back a laugh and pulled up two stools: "Dad, Mom, you guys sit and talk, take your time, there’s no hurry."

Being taught by a bride who hadn’t officially entered the door, what kind of situation was this...

Luo Yanfeng was caught between laughter and tears, turned around and said, "You sit, I’ll go cook."

Han Ning pressed mom into sitting down, laughed, and said, "You keep company with Ningning, I’ll cook, I’ll take care of the dishes. Ningning, think again, what other problems are there with our ship?"
