Although Zhangjiagang and Shuzhou on the other side of the river are developing rapidly, they only have freight ports and no passenger terminals.

Every Spring Festival, people from Zhangjiagang or Shuzhou who come back from cities in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River to celebrate the New Year will take a ferry to disembark at the Binjiang Port Passenger Terminal, and then take a bus or go directly to Binsha Auto to cross the river and go home.

There is a railway on the other side, and some people take the train home to celebrate the New Year.

However, train tickets are more expensive than boat tickets, and the train station is in the urban area of ​​Guzhou City, which is quite far from Zhangjiagang and Shuzhou. People still think it is more convenient to take a boat.

Because of this, although long-haul passenger transport is becoming increasingly sluggish and has almost become a "sunset industry," it is still very busy during the Spring Festival.

The ticket office and waiting room are full of passengers. Starting today, Han Ning will not even think about returning to Bailong Port as soon as he gets off work. He is busy maintaining order with the Changhang Police Academy trainees who have just come to Binjiang Police Station for internship. They will be on duty until the new year.

I can't go home until I'm thirty.

"Comrade, where are you going?"

"East China Sea."

"Didn't buy a ticket?"

"The conductor said it's only available the day after tomorrow, how could I wait here for two days!"

Some people couldn't buy tickets. Han Ning couldn't help but think of those years when the passenger terminal was busiest and most profitable. He saw passengers with large and small bags blocking the door of the ticket office. He smiled and said: "Comrade, you can definitely buy tickets. You can also use it."

Don’t wait two days.”

The passenger asked happily: "Where can I buy it?"

"It's available in the ticket office. You can take a high-speed ferry to Wusongkou in two hours, which is faster than taking Jiangshen or Jianghan."

"The high-speed passenger ferry fare is expensive. Besides, I want to go to the East China Sea. Wusongkou is so far away from the East China Sea."

"Wusongkou is right next to the East China Sea. There are buses from Wusong Passenger Terminal to the city. They can go anywhere. They cost two or three yuan and are not expensive."

The passengers were not reluctant to take the bus, but they thought the high-speed ferry fare was too expensive, so they turned around and looked at the ticket office but hesitated to speak.

Comparing his feelings, Han Ning also thinks that the fares of high-speed passenger ships are a bit expensive. Taking Jiangshen and Jianghan to Donghai only costs about ten yuan, while taking high-speed passenger ships costs more than seventy yuan, and it only goes to Wusongkou. Unlike Jiangshen, Jianghan can

Drive to Shiliupu Pier in the center of Donghai City.

Thinking that he would be reluctant to take the bus if he had to pay for it himself, Han Ning simply pointed to the bus stop diagonally opposite: "Comrade, if you are in a hurry, you can take the No. 2 bus to the long-distance bus station, or you can take the No. 6 bus there.

Take the Binsha Ferry and catch the passing bus to Donghai."

Taking a car is more expensive than taking the Jianghan or Jiangshen passenger ships, but it is cheaper than taking a high-speed passenger ship, and you can also go to the center of Donghai City.

The passenger hesitated for a moment, thanked him, picked up his luggage and went to wait for the bus across the street.

A high-speed passenger ship was about to dock at the port later. Han Ning was about to take student Xiao Xu to the exit to have a look when the director's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Han Ning, you were bumped into by me. If you were bumped into by Manager Wang, he would definitely not be happy."

"Qi Ju, what's wrong with me?"

"People come to our place to take the boat, but you push them away. Do you think Manager Wang will be happy if he finds out?"

Whether the passenger terminal is profitable or not has anything to do with the Changhang Branch...

Han Ning realized that the director was joking and said quickly: "I want to take Jiangshen or Jianghan, but I can't buy a ticket."

Qi Ju, who was not wearing a uniform, tightened the fur collar of his leather jacket and asked, "Are there no fifth-class seats?"

"It's different now than before. In the past, fifth-class seats were sold openly, and passengers were allowed on board as long as the deck could be squeezed. Now we pay attention to safety, and there are regulations on how many tickets we can sell. The harbor supervisor just came to inspect, and the passenger ship arrived in the East China Sea.

The East China Sea side will also check."

"Yeah?"

Bureau Qi really didn't know this, so he asked Han Ning to continue on duty, went in to check the safety of the Spring Festival Transport, and then returned to the bureau by car.

Political Commissar Jiang and Deputy Director Liu had been waiting for a long time and handed over a list of names as soon as they saw the whole bureau.

Qi Ju took it and looked at it. He sat down and picked up a pen and crossed out a name. After thinking about it, he added another name at the end.

Political Commissar Jiang was stunned and reminded: "Qi Bureau, Chen Zikun is the policeman with the highest academic qualifications in our branch. He is an undergraduate who graduated from a regular college."

"I know."

Bureau Qi put down his pen and explained with a smile: "I have read his resume and talked with him. He has been busy in the past few years since he was transferred to our branch, and he has not been able to go to Hanwu for training. This exchange is still a temporary job.

Let Zhang Ping go, and when he is no longer busy after the New Year, we will arrange for him to go to Hanwu for training."

Since it is the Changhang Public Security Bureau, of course, priority should be given to the Changhang police officers with “red roots and uprightness”.

Compared with Zhang Ping, who has been a policeman since he started working, Chen Zikun is just a monk halfway, and he can only stay behind when good things happen.

Deputy Director Liu thought there was nothing wrong with the Director's arrangement, but he still reminded: "Qi Bureau, let Zhang Ping go to the other side to take a temporary post, and after the New Year, we will arrange for Chen Zikun to go to Hanwu for training. The acting director and deputy instructor have both left.

What should I do about the work at Linghai Police Station?”

"The other side will also arrange for department-level cadres to come and take temporary posts here."

Qi Ju thought about it and smiled: "Han Ning has been working for a long time. She has been working at the grassroots level for these years and has rich work experience. Her lover is also the manager of Bailonggang Passenger Terminal. She can completely consider letting her work as a deputy at Linghai Police Station.

Instructor."

Deputy Bureau Liu nodded and said with deep understanding: "Lesbians can hold up half of the power. It's fine if there are no lesbians among the members of the bureau's party committee. The entire bureau cannot even have a female section-level cadre."

Re-employing lesbians is completely an excuse. This matter is not as simple as Deputy Director Liu said.

The Water Branch took action, and blind man Wang was so cunning that he actually took the lead in setting up some sort of Water Fire Fighting Association, which made the Changhang Branch very passive.

The director took into account the shortcomings of the Changhang Airlines branch and decided to recruit and remove them. Therefore, through his superior colleagues, he came up with the current exchange and temporary job plan.

Thinking that the director was playing a big game of chess, Political Commissar Jiang smiled and said: "This is a good arrangement. After all, the work of Linghai Police Station cannot be separated from the support and cooperation of Bailonggang Passenger Terminal."

They were all his own people. Qi Bureau thought there was no need to play riddles, so he went around in circles, raised his head and smiled and said: "Whether Linghai can open up the situation, we need the support of Xianyu. Now it seems that He Bureau even sold him to Linghai with a boat and people."

Hai made the right sale."

Political Commissar Jiang did not expect that the director had deeper considerations, and subconsciously asked: "Qi Bureau, I don't quite understand."

"The North Branch Channel is heavily silted up. The Baishen passenger ship has to wait for the tide to dock at the port. It has been delayed almost every day in the past two years. It has also been suspended when encountering strong winds and foggy weather. In addition, passenger transportation by car has become more and more convenient, resulting in the lack of passenger ships.

There are fewer and fewer tourists.”

Bureau Qi took the cigarette from Deputy Director Liu and continued: "I talked to Manager Wang at the passenger terminal. He said that Changhang Passenger Transport is currently operating in a bleak situation, and the three major Yangtze River Passenger Transport companies are all losing money. Come to Binjiang Port Passenger Terminal and take a boat

There aren’t many tourists here, let alone Bailong Port.”

Political Commissar Jiang asked solemnly: "Will the passenger ship stop sailing?"

"Sooner or later."

Qi Ju lit up his cigarette and took several puffs, and said slowly: "Even if the three major passenger transport companies can insist, the waterway bureau will not agree. As long as the Baishen passenger route is in operation, the Binjiang waterway section must be maintained."

Branch Channel. The water in the North Branch is shallow and large ships cannot pass it. The funds for maintaining the channel are very little from superiors. It can be said that the channel section can no longer bear it."

Dredging waterways, maintaining water depths, and setting and maintaining navigation marks all cost money.

The North Branch Channel does not produce much economic benefit, and because the natural environment is prone to siltation, the two enclaves of Linghai and Dongqi in the river are already connected to Minming Island, leaving the superiors to maintain it

The current situation is not very realistic.

Political Commissar Jiang realized that in the near future, not only the Baishen Passenger Line would be suspended, but even the North Branch Channel would be abandoned, he didn't know what to say for a while.

Qi Bureau pointed to the map of the Yangtze River waters on the wall and said with emotion: "After the Baishen passenger ship ceased sailing, there is no need for the Linghai Police Station to be located in Bailong Port. Linghai is developing the three-river coastline and maintaining the three-river waters and banks."

Line security and ensuring fire safety on the water and shorelines of the Sanhe waters can be said to be the focus of the Linghai Police Station’s future work.

The jurisdiction over public security and fire supervision and management will definitely be solved by superiors in the future, but we must make corresponding preparations ahead. For example, where will the Linghai Police Station be moved to Sanhe in the future? Xianyu is now the political and legal W of Linghai Development Zone

Secretary and Minister of Human Resources and Military Affairs, he can't watch his sister and his old subordinates working in the open air."

The suspension of passenger ship sailings is a general trend.

The same was true when Linghai Police Station moved to Sanhe.

Political Commissar Jiang came to his senses and asked, "Let Xianyu think of a way to help us coordinate a piece of land?"

Bureau Qi knocked the ashes, raised his head and said with a smile: "Even if you can help us coordinate a piece of land, we still have to spend money to build an office building. If Linghai Development Zone can treat customs and health quarantine as well as arrange a ready-made place for us,

alright."

"..."

"Commissar, what's wrong?"

"This is a bit difficult. After all, we are different from the customs, port supervision, and health and quarantine. In order to develop the port economy, people are looking to the customs, port supervision, and health quarantine. If we can help them, they don't need to ask us.

"

"We have salted fish. Didn't you say that the small fish want to be transferred back? If we add another small fish, it shouldn't be a big problem."

…

After the New Year, the security detachment leader of Changhang Binjiang Branch will go to Changhang Guzhou Branch to serve as deputy director, the deputy criminal investigation detachment Liu Guixiang will go to Guzhou Branch to serve as detachment leader, and the deputy instructor of Binjiang Police Station Jiang Changhao will go to Zhangjiagang of Guzhou Branch

The police station is appointed deputy director. Even Zhang Ping has to go to Changhang Guzhou Branch Shuzhou Police Station to serve as instructor after the Chinese New Year. Changhang Guzhou Branch will also arrange for six section-level cadres to work at Changhang Binjiang Branch.

When the news reached the barge, Ma Jintao, Yang Yong, Luo Wenjiang and others who came to the meeting were all surprised.

It is worth mentioning that Luo Wenjiang has made progress again and is now the third captain of the Marine Police of the Water Branch. The progress of the selected students is very fast, which can be said to be a step forward every year.

"Let Zhang Ping go to the other side as a temporary instructor. This is to teach Zhang Ping a formal education."
