Riverside police

No. 4 Police Station, back office.

Zhang Lan carefully checked the salary details of the police officers in the station last month, added them up with a calculator, then opened the file bag, took out a wad of cash, and counted them skillfully.

She was more than six months pregnant and her belly was slightly bulging. She had difficulty moving and had to be careful in everything she did. When I go to the bureau to collect wages or financial reimbursements, Niu Bin, the internal staff of the Fourth Criminal Investigation Squadron, helps with the errands.

Whenever money is involved, it must be accounted for in person.

Ushi Bin was not in a hurry to go back. While looking through the photo album she compiled in the morning, she asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, is Salted Fish back?"

"I came back. I went to Binjiang to take the self-study exam and then left."

"When did you leave?"

"I left by boat the day before yesterday."

"Did you see him?"

"Yes, Xu Suo called me to have dinner the night before yesterday. He has grown taller, and is now 1.67 meters tall. He is taller than me. If you just look at his back, you may not be able to recognize him."

Although they both work in Bailonggang, and although they are all newcomers, their closeness and distance are completely different.

When Xianyu came back from the East China Sea to take the self-study exam, he acted like a child working out of town who went home to visit relatives. It was said that the Yanjiang Police Station provided extra meals every day, and even the Bailonggang Police Station invited him to dinner.

Captain Xu and Fang Zhi also had two meals together because one was his senior brother and the other was his second senior brother. Others were not eligible to go.

Niu Bin was envious, even a little jealous, and couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, how many years will Xianyu study in Donghai?"

"It's said to be three years, maybe four years."

"It takes so long, almost as long as a bachelor's degree."

"He went to learn to sail a large ship, not to learn anything else. He couldn't learn anything in three or four years, and he couldn't get a certificate."

Zhang Lan counted it twice to confirm that the number was correct, put down the money and started folding the pay slips, cutting them into pay slips with a knife.

Niu Bin looked back behind him, made sure there was no one outside, and muttered: "You don't have to go to work and you get paid. If you go to Donghai to study with the bureau's salary, it will last three or four years."

"Envy?" Zhang Lan asked with a smile.

"That's the East China Sea, who wouldn't envy it."

Niu Bin thought about it and muttered: "It's great to be Xu Institute's apprentice. No one else would have the opportunity to earn free wages. Even if the institute can agree, the bureau will not agree."

There are many people who are envious of Xianyu, and this one is not the first one.

If it had been anyone else, Zhang Lan wouldn't have bothered to explain.

But he is Xu Mingyuan's apprentice, not someone else.

Zhang Lan felt that it was necessary to make it clear to him, put down the knife, and said with a smile: "You can't just see Xianyu going out to study with a salary, but you can't see the work that Xianyu did before going out to study."

Ushi Bin asked in a low voice: "Isn't he just good at driving 001? What kind of job has he done besides driving a ship?"

"The previous 001 was an old tugboat that was almost scrapped. The machines were all broken and the wires and circuits were all aging. It took him three months to repair it."

Zhang Lan picked up the tea cup, took a sip of water, and continued: "He participated in the whole process from the design to the construction of the barge. Even 002 was renovated by him. The money for repairing 001 and building the barge was earned from scalpers who resold tickets. He also participated in the entire operation.

It is no exaggeration to say that without him there would be no current 001, 002 and barge. He has made such great contributions to the institute and even the bureau, and he has achieved third-class merit twice. Not to mention sending him to Donghai to learn sailing, he should be recommended to go to university. "

Niu Bin asked doubtfully: "Isn't 001 built by Bailonggang Shipyard? Isn't the barge built by Bailonggang Shipyard?"

"Have you seen the promotional materials of Bailonggang Shipyard?"

"Well, it says that 001 was repaired and modified by them."

"They used to only weld ship hulls and build paddle boats, but they didn't know how to repair tugs at all. Now they say they can repair tugs, but in fact they don't have masters who can repair tugboat main and auxiliary engines, and they don't have electricians who can repair tugboat circuits. When it comes to repairing tugboats, I have to go to the port authority to ask Xianyu’s brother-in-law to help.”

"They're bragging!"

"That's what you thought."

Zhang Lan asked back and said very seriously: "Xianyu going to study in the East China Sea is not Xu Suo's decision alone. In fact, our bureau also supports it, even the water branch supports it, otherwise the fish bureau would not send him there in person. East China Sea."

Niu Bin didn't expect that Xianyu would make a big contribution despite his age, but after thinking about it, he still muttered: "But he is a police officer, what's the use of learning to sail a big boat."

"He is a police officer and a marine policeman. Why is it useless to learn how to sail a big boat?"

"He plans to be a marine policeman for the rest of his life?"

"Isn't it good to be a marine policeman for the rest of your life?"

"Sister-in-law, I'm not jealous of him, I just think that if he only learns to sail a boat and only works as a marine policeman, it will be difficult for him to go ashore in the future. Tell me, there are so many scientific and research teams in the bureau, who will want him in the future."

Yanjiang Police Station is only one of the dozen police stations in Linghai Public Security Bureau, and it is an extremely marginalized one, otherwise it would not be dominated by veteran comrades. One can even imagine that when Li Weiguo and Lao Zhang retire, the bureau will most likely arrange for two more old comrades to come over.

Xu Sanye is engaged in "professional construction" again, and the "fence" is so high that he not only prevents others from getting involved, but also traps himself.

From a personal development perspective, this is not a good thing for salted fish.

After all, the focus of the bureau's work is on the shore, and it doesn't matter how well you do on the water. But Zhang Lan is not worried about whether Xianyu can make progress in the future.

"If it were just within our bureau, there would be no future as a marine police officer. But the Yanjiang Police Station is not only a police station within our bureau, but also the Linghai Brigade of the municipal bureau's water security detachment. The ship number of 001 has changed from Linghai Police 001 to Binjiang Marine Police 001 has its own system and its own promotion path, so there is no need to go to other departments and teams."

"Sister-in-law, you mean that Xianyu can go to the water branch in the future!"

"Without Xianyu, there would be no Yanjiang Police Station, and without the Yanjiang Police Station, there would be no Shuishui Branch. As long as he wants to go, Station Xu can transfer him there with just a phone call."

The more Zhang Lan thought about it, the more interesting it became. He smiled and said: "There are three brigades in the Water Branch, and each brigade should have at least two squadrons. Now there is only one deputy captain, Zhao Hongxing, and one squadron captain, Chen Zikun. Over there There are plenty of positions, and Xianyu will not be able to be a squadron leader in the future, or even a group leader."

"Sister-in-law, you are saying that by supporting the Fish Bureau, Xu is paving the way for Salted Fish!"

"Xu Suo supports the Fish Bureau because of his work, but one thing is for sure, you and I don't have to worry about Xianyu's future."

What a self-contained system!

Niu Bin suddenly discovered that Xu Sanye had played a big game. He built the "Binjiang Water Police" system by supporting Yuju and Political Commissar Wang, and then closed the door and played by himself. In the future, it would be easier for Xianyu to be promoted within the water security system than on the shore.

For example, in the Linghai Public Security Bureau, it would take at least 20 years to become a brigade captain or director, but in the Shuangshui Branch, it might only take seven or eight years to become a brigade captain, otherwise Zhao Hongxing would not have done it right away. Deputy Captain.

People can take shortcuts, and what’s even more incredible is that they paved this shortcut themselves...

People are more infuriating than people.

Niu Bin was envious and jealous when he suddenly discovered that Han Xiangning was on a photo he had just turned over.

At a glance, I knew it was taken on Captain Xu's wedding day. Xu Sanye and his wife were sitting in the middle. Xianyu and Han Xiangning were actually standing behind Xu Sanye and his wife with Captain Xu and his wife, just like a young couple!

"Sister-in-law, what does this photo mean?"

"What picture."

"This one." Ushibin held up the album.

Zhang Lan looked up and couldn't help but smile: "It's not interesting to take a group photo."

"How can Xianyu stand with Xiang Ning!"

"What's wrong with standing together and taking a small photo? Xianyu took the exam in Binjiang a few days ago, and they all live at Ning Ning's house."

"He's not Xiang Ning's real cousin, how can he live in Xiang Ning's house?"

Zhang Lan really couldn't bear to hit him, but there were some things that he couldn't make clear, otherwise the boy in front of him would not give up, so he simply smiled and said: "Ningning treats him as a younger brother. Ningning's parents also like him very much. He lives in Ningning." Isn’t home normal?”

Looking at the smiling Han Xiangning in the photo, Niu Bin asked with a grimace: "Xiang Ning just regards him as his younger brother?"

"I don't know about that. Anyway, they are very close."

"How good are we?"

"They are very, very good friends. Anyway, they always share a room when they go out and stay in a hotel."

"But their surname is Han, and he is two years younger than Xiang Ning."

"Ushihama, what exactly do you want to say?"

"I know why he was so anxious to ask Master Qian to move to the barge that time!"

"Why?"

Niu Bin put down the photo album, slapped himself in the face, and said bitterly: "I'm so stupid, I still treat him as my junior uncle, and ask him to help me say something nice in front of Xiang Ning."

It’s not too late to know now.

Zhang Lan suppressed a smile and reminded: "He is originally your junior uncle."

Niu Bin was so embarrassed that he covered his face and remained silent for a long time before asking with a wry smile: "Sister-in-law, should I call you Miss Xiang Ning from now on?"

"I don't know, but I can't rule out the possibility."

Zhang Lan smiled and said meaningfully: "If it were any other girl, there would definitely be a lot of people helping to introduce her to Ning Ning. But now almost no one introduces Ning Ning. Not just here, but I heard that the Hong Kong Regulatory Bureau There isn’t one over there either.”

Ushibin couldn't help but ask: "How did you know?"

"Last time I met Sister Zhu, Sister Zhu told me."

"Where is Xiang Ning's family? Did her family ask someone to help introduce her?"

"It seems not."

"I see, I'm so stupid, I should have thought of it earlier."

Zhang Lan knew what was going on and asked, "What do you think of?"

Niu Bin took a deep breath and said bitterly: "Xu Suo must have done some work. Not only did he treat Xianyu as the prince along the Yangtze River, he also wanted Xiang Ning to be the prince's concubine!"

"Hahahahaha."

"Sister-in-law, I'm so heartbroken, but you can actually laugh."

"You haven't even talked to her. You just have a crush. There's no such thing as a broken love."

The more Zhang Lan thought about it, the funnier she became. She couldn't help but laugh and said: "Don't feel inferior, and don't blame others. You should think about it the other way around. Xianyu is the prince along the river, and you are also the 'prince' of the fourth squadron. Work hard, and when the right girl comes along, you and I will The master will definitely help you introduce it.”
