Chapter 683: Chapter 472: The Future Can Be Excavated_2
Few people know how vast the East Sea District is.
Only those in the Fishery System know that the East Sea District Fishery Bureau supervises and manages fishery and fish port supervision in the eleven provinces and cities of Jiangnan, East Sea, Zhehai, Jianfu, as well as the Yangtze River Basin: Xichuan, Nanyun, Guizhou, Beihu, Nanhu, Xijiang, and Hui’an!
The young man’s battle with sand dredgers is also about protecting the Yangtze River fishery resources!
Unable to repay the young man for his help all these years, Station Chief Shen simply picked up the phone on the desk and asked, "Director Zhou, does he want to find experts familiar with the Yangtze River fishery resources?"
"He needs to present a strong case to the superiors for them to take notice; it can’t be done with just a few words. He called
for advice, but the Agricultural Bureau only has a few ’local experts’ who study freshwater aquaculture. We can’t provide the materials he needs, so we can’t help him there."
"We can find them!"
"Does your bureau have any?"
"We don’t have any in our bureau, but our bureau’s leadership knows several professors who have been studying Yangtze River fishery resource conservation."
Zhou Hong laughed and said, "That’s great, Salted Fish will definitely be happy to hear that."
Station Chief Shen quickly dialed the leader’s cell phone, thought better of it, and pressed the speakerphone button in front of Zhou Hong, "Director Sun, it’s Shen Kailai, not about the handover, I have a situation to report to you..."
After the leader on the other end understood the full picture, he asked with a laugh, "Those two from Binjiang want to fight the sand dredging?"
"Director Sun, you rember them?"
"They are the ones really willing to assist us in cracking down on illegal eel fry fishing, especially Salted Fish. I see him every ti I go to Binjiang for mobilization etings, and his na is always on the comndation lists you submit. How could I forget?"
"Now there’s only Salted Fish left."
"Isn’t there also Xiao Yu? Where did Xiao Yu go?"
"He’s been transferred to Hanwu, now an instructor at the Changhang Police Academy. It’s been over two years since he transferred."
"It’s already been over two years, ti flies so fast!"
Director Sun also rembered a year when he organized the Fishery Administration Ships to go to Binjiang Waters to deal with illegal eel fry fishing, and saw two young n aboard a law enforcent boat converted from a tugboat, firing warning shots and commanding the fishing boats attempting to violently resist the law to stop for inspection.
Station Chief Shen didn’t expect the leader to rember the two fish. He exchanged a glance with the silently smiling Zhou Hong and continued, "Director Sun, that kid Salted Fish is remarkable now. He was transferred from Linghai Police Bureau to the Changhang Bureau and then back to Linghai Police Bureau. He is currently the Director of the Linghai Police Bureau Developnt Zone Branch. I have to address him as Director Han when I see him."
"He’s not by the river anymore?"
"He is still by the river, every day. The Linghai Developnt Zone is right by the river."
"He’s beco the head of the branch, like the Yangtze’s new waves pushing the old waves."
Director Sun laughed and said, "He needs to find an expert, right? Okay, I’ll help contact them. After I speak with them, I’ll give you their contact info for Salted Fish to reach out to the experts."
Station Chief Shen hastily said, "Alright, thank you, Director Sun."
"What’s there to thank
for? That Salted Fish is also helping with our work. I need to ntion this to Vice Director Li, who’s in charge of this departnt, and ask him to pay attention to it."
Director Sun chuckled, then suddenly changed the topic: "Kailai, you should also hurry up with your own matters. Finish the handover quickly so I can send you off to take up your position at the East Sea Headquarters."
"Yes, I’ll do so as fast as possible, hoping to return the day after tomorrow."
"Well, let’s leave it at that, call
if there’s anything."
Station Chief Shen hung up the phone and looked up to explain, "Director Zhou, the Vice Director Li that our Director Sun just ntioned is both the Vice-Chairman of the Changyu Committee and also the Director of the Yangtze River Fishery Resources Managent Committee Office. Director Li is in charge of the specific work of Yangtze River fishery resources managent."
Just the Binjiang Developnt Zone alone houses over a dozen chemical companies, and there are even more across the river in the other districts and counties. It’s expected that the upstream provinces and cities will have their share too, with all their wastewater being discharged into the river.
The fish in the river are getting fewer and fewer, and the water can’t even be used for direct drinking. What fisheries resources are left in the Yangtze River, and how can they be managed?
Back when I joined Xu Sanye and his apprentices in the great eel catching battle, it was totally out of concern that Changhang transportation shouldn’t be affected. After transferring to the Agricultural Bureau, taking the lead in organizing several districts and counties along the river to crack down on illegal eel fry fishing was more out of consideration for orderly fishing and foreign exchange earnings.
In short, Zhou Hong wasn’t very interested in the managent of Yangtze River’s fishery resources, but instead chuckled and asked, "Is Director Sun sending you to take up a post at the East Sea Headquarters, as the chief or the Political Commissioner?"
"You really think highly of , Director Zhou."
"What exactly is the position?"
"Deputy Chief."
"Deputy Chief isn’t bad either. From now on, when our Binjiang fishern go out to sea to fish, we’ll have a strong backing, and I’ll need to ask for your care."
"I’ll need to ask for your continued support for my work as well. The East Sea Headquarters only has five Fishery Administration ships to oversee such a vast area, and we have to carry out other tasks assigned by superiors from ti to ti. We just don’t have enough law enforcent force."
"As long as the superiors give the order, it’s not a problem to mobilize our Law Enforcent Ships, let alone fishing boats."
"By the way, when will the Fishery Administration ship built by the Provincial Fishery Administration for you be commissioned?"
"Plans are subject to change."
Zhou Hong took the cigarette from Station Chief Shen’s hand with a laugh, "Probably because the new ship cost tens of millions, the province can’t bear to just hand it over to us. The Provincial Fishery Administration Headquarters plans to establish a directly affiliated corps and intends to give the new ship to them. It’s fortunate that Salted Fish was reluctant to transfer here at that ti; otherwise, after his arrival, if there’s no ship to drive, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to him."
Station Chief Shen chuckled and asked, "You’re actually able to laugh when the promised ship is gone?"
"Without a ship, there will be not as many issues to deal with, and isn’t it good to have fewer things to handle? Besides, it’s a ship worth tens of millions; it’s not sothing I can just demand. If they don’t let
laugh, should I cry instead?"
"That’s true, but it’s clearly a sea Law Enforcent Ship designed for mariti patrol, and Jiangcheng is so far from the sea. Isn’t it a waste of resources to have it stationed there?"
"Enforcent on the river is also necessary. Doesn’t your bureau’s ’Changyu Office’ manage these matters? If the mariti enforcent power is insufficient, upon your orders, they would have to bring the ship over to obey your command."
"What a pity."
Zhou Hong asked subconsciously, "What’s the pity?"
After drawing on his cigarette a few tis, Station Chief Shen sighed, "If the ship could be handed over to you and you manage to transfer Salted Fish here as well, not only could he help us crack down on illegal eel fry fishing on the river, but he could also assist in law enforcent and rights protection out at sea."
Zhou Hong laughed heartily, "Our Binjiang Fishery Law Enforcent Corps is just a Full Departnt Level self-funded agency; our temple is too small for Salted Fish. When you beco the Chief, you can then ask if he’d like to work under you."
"The temple of the East Sea Headquarters isn’t that big either; I guess he wouldn’t look up to it."
"But there’s a sense of accomplishnt working at your place."
Zhou Hong thought about it and then laughed again, "Salted Fish is reluctant to transfer mainly because he’s worried about who would manage the affairs on the river. Now that the firefighting issue has been resolved, and the patrol boats that Changhang Bureau and the Water Police Station are building are about to be commissioned, the gaps in patrol enforcent force on the river will be filled. Then, you really can talk to him about it."
The situation at sea is more complicated than on the river; who wouldn’t want a daring, seasoned subordinate with law enforcent experience.
Station Chief Shen thought Zhou Hong made sense and, propping up his chin, said, "Let’s hope your words bring good luck. If I really beco the Chief, I’ll co back to Binjiang to dig up Salted Fish, and by then you have to help
work on his mindset."
"His mindset doesn’t need any work; just take him to see his master and apprentices at the sea’s entrance, and he’ll understand what work is more important."
"Didn’t he say before the New Year that he wanted to borrow a fishing boat to visit his master’s at the sea’s entrance during Qingming, did he make it?"
"I had already arranged the fishing boat for him, but it ended up not happening because he was helping us with cracking down on illegal eel fry fishing. He told
over the phone that he’d go next year, and he also said that if his late master’s spirit knew about it, he would definitely not bla him, as the work takes precedence after all."
Zhou Hong let out a light sigh and continued, "A few days before Qingming Festival, Xiao Yu originally planned to take ti off to go to the sea’s entrance together. But after Salted Fish called saying he was too busy with work to make it, Xiao Yu didn’t co back either."
