Riverside police

Just as he was about to talk about someone reselling foreign exchange certificates, several people suddenly came.

They all came on bicycles and looked like cadres. They were very restrained and even a little scared. Two of them said they were looking for Li Weiguo, and the others said they were looking for Lao Zhang.

Xu Sanye was well-known, and Han Yu didn't think anyone would dare to come to Yanjiang Police Station to intercede.

After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, I walked out and saw that he had indeed surrendered to someone else!

A dozen men and women who had bought tickets for the ticket seller stood in the courtyard with their heads hanging down, not daring to go near the office.

Looking back at the cadres who were busy fuming, Han Yu secretly smiled to himself that they were also sending people to surrender, but in other people's eyes, it was safer to go to the instructor or Lao Zhang to surrender than to go to Xu Sanye.

At this time, another person pushed a bicycle and led six distracted people into the yard.

The man pushing the bicycle was in his fifties and was wearing an old military uniform.

Xu Sanye was very familiar with him, and he knew he must have a good relationship with him. He invited him into the director's office and asked Han Yu to get a bottle of boiled water.

I drank all the boiled water I boiled at noon and forgot to boil it at night.

Han Yu quickly burned a bottle and went downstairs, knocked on the door and walked into the office, looking for a cup to help make tea.

Xu Sanye put out the cigarette butt and introduced: "Lao Lei, this is Xiao Han from our institute. He was just assigned this year. He is a technical secondary school student with good grades. He ranked sixth in the county in the high school entrance examination!"

"You are so good at studying. How old are you, young man?"

"Xianyu, this is Minister Lei from the Sichang Township People's Armed Forces Department. He has been a good friend of mine for many years."

"Hello, Minister Lei, I am sixteen this year."

"You're only sixteen, I said it's so... so weak."

"Little Han is still young and can still grow."

Xu Sanye laughed and asked: "Old Lei, the recruitment will start soon. You will be busy next."

"No, I heard that the meeting will start at the end of the month."

Minister Lei picked up the tea cup, blew on the tea foam floating on it, and said with a smile: "But we are not idle. Once the public rations are collected, we will organize militia training."

"How long will the training last this year?"

"It's different now than when you were the militia battalion commander. The superiors don't pay attention to militia training, and the masses are not very enthusiastic. There seem to be a lot of basic militiamen, but everyone is busier than the other, and they can only find thirty or forty people to train one. Week."

"No shooting."

"The target must be shot. Without target shooting, it is nothing like militia training."

"If you decide on a day for target shooting, call me in advance. Xiao Han has just started working and has never touched a gun. Our bureau has strict control over guns and ammunition, so we just happened to take Xiao Han to shoot."

Minister Lei looked at him with a smile and asked, "You want to fight, right?"

Xu Sanye grinned and said: "I haven't fired a gun for a long time. When the time comes, prepare more bullets to help me get rid of my gun addiction."

"Okay, I'll call you then."

Minister Lei smiled slightly and then changed the subject: "Sanye, I'm here with a mission. You can punish, scold, or even beat those village cadres outside, but you can't arrest them."

"Why can't you catch it?"

"There are thousands of threads at the top and a needle at the bottom. There are so many tasks assigned by the superiors. If you arrest a few village cadres outside, who will do the specific work."

"If we are able to pursue criminal responsibility, we will definitely arrest them. Isn't it just a few village cadres? At worst, we will have to choose again."

"You make it easy to re-elect. Nowadays, many township cadres have resigned and gone to work. The loss of personnel at the village level is even more serious. Anyone who has some ability has gone out to make money. We are now coaxing others to do it."

Linghai is the hometown of Zhang Zhuangyuan, a modern industrialist in the late Qing Dynasty. Sichang Township is named after Zhang Zhuangyuan opened the Dasheng Fourth Textile Factory here.

Linghai is only separated from the East China Sea by a river. All this gives Linghai a tradition of setting up factories and doing business.

For example, in the textile industry, textile factories are everywhere in recent years.

Another example is the shipping industry. The number of self-employed individuals who buy ships and engage in water transportation in the county has grown to more than 900, with a total load capacity of more than 100,000 tons.

As Minister Lei said, all those who have the ability have gone to work, and only those who have no ability will become cadres.

Times are changing so fast that no one is even willing to be a cadre...

Xu Sanye sighed secretly and said nothing more.

Here, Minister Wu, entrusted by the Sichang Township Government, came to intercede with the village cadres.

In the two offices next door are several cadres from the Commerce Bureau and the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, interceding with the employees of several state-owned stores, state-owned hotels and warehouses in Bailonggang.

The so-called intercession does not mean that big things are reduced to trivial matters, and trivial matters are reduced to nothing.

I'm just worried that the impact will be too bad, and I hope Yanjiang Police Station won't make the matter a fuss.

As for those people who participated in the reselling of ferry tickets, they should be punished as appropriate, as long as they are not paraded on the street or detained.

In short, those who turn themselves in at night are all face-saving people.

Xu Sanye, Li Weiguo, and Lao Zhang were busy until after one o'clock in the night before taking a break.

With the participation of policemen such as Lao Liu from Bailonggang Police Station, the pressure on the second day was not as great as before. Basically, those who were so busy that they should surrender after dark came.

Only a few old men and women were lucky enough to know that the police had discovered that they were involved in reselling tickets but did not come.

The deadline given was five days, and today is the weekend.

Xu Sanye was not in a hurry to arrest people and asked Li Weiguo and Lao Zhang, who had been busy for more than half a month, to go home and have a good rest.

He and Han Yu rushed to the dock early in the morning to greet Zhang Jiangkun who came to help repair the ship.

For a long time, the two certificates that people yearn for the most and are the most difficult to obtain are the university diploma and the eighth-level work certificate!

There are many eighth-level workers in large organizations like the Port Authority. There are no large units in Linghai, and there are very few eighth-level workers.

In Xu Sanye's view, Xiao Xianyu's brother-in-law was definitely a very capable person. He was very respectful and enthusiastic. He specifically asked Lao Qian, the cook who had just started working, to cook more dishes at noon.

What surprised Han Yu was that his brother-in-law not only brought his sister and children, but also invited an electrician in his thirties.

Since there was no room for the three-wheeler, Xu Sanye simply asked Mr. Zhang from the Bailonggang Police Station to arrange a jeep ride.

The meritorious service is established together, and the benefit is shared together. The two families are now as good as wearing a pair of trousers.

Zhang Suo was very helpful and quickly asked the driver to drive over and take Zhang Jiangkun and others to the Yanjiang Police Station.

When relatives of police officers come to the station for the first time, of course they must first visit the working and living environment.

Like a commentator, Xu Sanye had just finished introducing the situation in the institute, and then turned around and said: "Xianyu, didn't you take photos of people in uniform? Lao Li said that you also took photos when you went to the East China Sea, and I gave them to you. Sister, brother-in-law, let’s take a look.”

"What's so interesting about the photo? Why don't we go see the ship first."

"Why are you acting so coquettishly like a big girl?"

Han Ning really wanted to see a photo of his brother in uniform, so he smiled and said, "San'er, let us take a look."

Han Yu had no choice but to open the drawer and take out the solo photos taken at Bailonggang Photo Studio, as well as photos with Lao Zhang and Lao Liu on the boat and on the Bund.

Han Ning took it and took a look, and said with a smile: "It's a very good photo, but I'm too embarrassed to let us see it."

"Very powerful, very good."

Zhang Jiangkun came over to take a look, turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, let's see how this little photo of my third son turned out."

"It looks good. When you put on the uniform, you look energetic!" The electrician nodded.

Han Ning held the child and asked, "How many pictures were washed?"

Han Yu scratched his neck: "I took four photos alone, and only one photo with Uncle Li Zhi and Liu."

"Do you have any negatives of the single?"

"have."

"Give me the four singles."

"What do you want so many photos for?"

"Keep one at home, give one to grandma, give one to my parents later, and give one to Han Shen."

Afraid that his brother would disagree, Han Ning said confidently: "It's not like you don't have any negatives. Just send the negatives to someone else to develop a few more pictures."

They were all filmed in women's uniforms, and they would be laughed at if they met someone who knew better.

Han Yu was embarrassed and depressed, but couldn't explain it, so he had no choice but to put the photo in an envelope and hand it to his sister.

Zhang Jiangkun and the others came not only to recognize the door but also to help repair the ship. After chatting for a while, they put on their work clothes and went to the shipyard.

Lift the cylinder first and confirm whether the crankshaft and other important components are damaged.

Then check the starter motor, battery, anchor chain machine...

The electrician went up and down, inside and out, like a doctor making a diagnosis. Then he took out a pen and paper and made a list, listing several pages of electrical instruments, switches, wires and cables to be purchased.

Han Ning took the child on the boat and took a quick look. She couldn't bear the heat and returned to the pavilion to rest.

Xu Sanye said before that he would do small jobs when he had time. Today he put on his work clothes and started working. After all, lifting a cylinder is both technical and physical work.

After working all morning, I was completely soaked.

On the way back to the institute for lunch, Han Ning thought of those days on the boat and sighed: "It's so hot in the summer and so cold in the winter. I never want to get on a boat again in my life."

Han Yu wiped his sweat and said with emotion: "It's already late autumn, and it's still so hot in the cabin."

Xu Sanye didn't know how cold it was in the winter on the ship, but he had experienced how hot it was in the summer. He turned around and asked, "Master Xu, can the ship be equipped with air conditioning?"

"Yes, but there's no point in installing it in the cabin."

"What about the cockpit and the command module below the cockpit?"

"Those two cabins can be installed. Director Xu, if you really want to install them, I will help you install a switch box for switching the power supply. When sailing, use the electricity generated on the ship, and when berthing, use the electricity on the shore. This is more economical. .”

“Isn’t it cost-effective to use the electricity generated on the ship?”

"Of course it's not cost-effective. Once the host starts, it doesn't burn oil but money."

Xu Sanye had never thought about fuel before and subconsciously asked: "Master Zhang, how much fuel does this boat consume after driving for one hour?"

Zhang Jiangkun thought for a while and said with a smile: "General ships have an engine on the boat, and a tugboat has a hull on the engine. It can be said to be an engine floating on the water. The two main engines are old machines. If they are turned on at full power, , it is estimated that thirty or forty liters of diesel will be burned in one hour.”

"How much does diesel cost per liter now?"

"The price of oil has risen sharply during this period, and it has already reached 1.3 yuan."

It costs fifty yuan to burn oil an hour...

Xu Sanye thought he heard wrongly and turned around subconsciously.

Seeing him looking over, Han Yu quickly said: "It's almost the same, and it doesn't mean that the boat can be driven away just by sailing. The boat must be warmed up before sailing."

Xu Sanye asked: "How long does it take to heat it up?"

"It takes half an hour anyway."

"The fuel consumption is so high, this is a gas tiger!"

"Xu Suo, this is a tugboat. It was used to tow fleets of ships in the past. Without such power, how could it tow so many barges filled with cargo?"

The Yangtze River water area under the jurisdiction of the Yangtze River Police Station is more than 40 kilometers. If you drive a tugboat to patrol the river back and forth, a month's salary is not enough to burn fuel.

Xu Sanye suddenly regretted repairing the boat, and said in a dumbfounded way: "This consumes too much fuel. We can't afford to repair it, but we can't afford to use it."
