Chapter 712: Chapter 486: Boats are a ans of Transportation

Early morning, Han Yu and two engineers from the Binjiang City Water Resources Bureau rushed to Dongqi Port by car.

Dongqi Port, like Bailong Port, is a passenger pier with a history almost as long. However, Dongqi port is not located in Dongqi District, it was originally in Beixin Town of Dongqi, but due to sedint accumulation in the waterway, it had to be relocated to Huifeng Town.

Dongqi is the easternmost county-level city in Binjiang and even in Jiangnan Province. Although, like Linghai, it faces Zhuangming County of East Sea City across the river, its transportation is extrely inconvenient.

Linghai has at least two car ferries and Bailong Port Passenger Pier. Dongqi has no car ferries, and long-distance buses from Dongqi have to go west to Zhuangling car ferry in Linghai to cross the river.

From this, one can see how important Dongqi Port, located in Huifeng Town, is to Dongqi.

In the past few years, the Yangtze River Passenger Company adjusted the routes of several passenger ships to improve seat occupancy, including the Bai Shen.

The Bai Shen Line ferry, which operates between Bailong Port and Sixteen Piers Pier in East Sea City, no longer travels west into the main channel of the Yangtze River after departing from Bailong Port, but goes directly east along North Branch Channel, stops at Dongqi Port, and then enters Wusong Port from the eastern waters of Zhuangming Island.

To et the demand of high-end passengers, Dongqi Port also launched a high-speed ferry route operating between East Sea Baoshan and Dongqi. A high-speed ferry nad "Rocket," makes one round trip every day.

By the end of last year, the astute East Sea people saw huge passenger flow on this route and specifically introduced foreign investnt to establish the Yangtze River Sanbei Shipping Company.

In February this year, "Sanbei Wheel" set out on its first voyage from Dongqi Port.

Since then, four daily voyages between Dongqi Port and East Sea Zhanghuabang Pier have beco the first dostic joint venture high-passenger route approved by the Ministry of Transport.

Binjiang Port Supervision Bureau only supervises the North Branch Channel up to Bailong Port.

Anything happening at Dongqi Port has nothing to do with Binjiang Port Supervision Bureau, but it is relevant to Changhang Public Security Bureau Binjiang Branch!

Although Changhang Public Security, Yangtze Port Supervision Bureau, and Yangtze River Navigation Bureau are all led by the Yangtze Marine Bureau, the jurisdictions of these three organizations are not the sa.

For example, the East Sea Navigation Channel Office of the Yangtze River Navigation Bureau, its jurisdiction starts from Huangtian Port in Jiangyin City of Jiangnan Province, the main line goes east to Liuhe Port at Dacang, and the North Branch down to Lianxing Port of Dongqi City, maintaining a total waterway length of 342 kiloters, of which the main waterway is 131 kiloters, secondary waterway is also 131 kiloters, and specialized waterway is 80.5 kiloters.

However, in fact, the waterways maintained are primarily in Jiangnan Province, having only a slight intersection with Zhuangming Island, and mainly in the North Branch Waters, funnily they hardly maintain that branch.

Can such a waterway departnt be called the East Sea Navigation Channel Office?

Many people find it strange, but once you stay on the river for a long ti, you’d know that the organization established by several Yangtze managing departnts has nothing to do with the local administrative divisions. So Port Supervision Bureaus jurisdictions even span across three provinces and four prefecture-level cities on both sides of the Yangtze River.

At the sa ti, the administrative levels of the several Yangtze-managing departnts and their subordinate institutions are not linked to the administrative levels of the local governnts.

For example, Changhang Public Security Bureau, Yangtze Port Supervision Bureau, and Yangtze Communication Bureau are all Provincial Hall Level agencies, yet they are under the administration of Yangtze Navigation Bureau, which is also at the Provincial Hall Level.

For instance, the newly established Shuzhou Port Supervision Office, Dacang Port Supervision Office, and Zhangjia Port Supervision Office, are not Deputy Director Level as previously thought but are Standard Departnt Level. However, Shuzhou, Dacang, and Zhangjia Port are only county-level cities, if they were to attend so eting, they would sit on the presidential platform just like city leaders.

Compared to the aforentioned units, Changhang Public Security Bureau is more special.

Along the Yangtze River, whether it’s the main channel or tributaries, the security of any passenger piers is managed by Changhang Public Security Bureau. All onboard police on passenger ships operating on the main channel and tributaries of the Yangtze River must be dispatched by Changhang Public Security Bureau.

It is for this reason, Changhang Public Security has a branch in East Sea, which has authority over the security of passenger ships traveling from the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River to East Sea or from East Sea to the cities along the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze.

In conclusion, the more prosperous Dongqi Port becos, the more attention Changhang Binjiang Branch must pay.

Moreover, concerning jurisdiction, Changhang Public Security Bureau has always been firmly unyielding.

Director He personally ca to investigate several tis, and finally, with the approval of the superiors, the previous Dongqi Port Police Station was upgraded to Changhang Public Security Bureau Binjiang Branch Dongqi Port Police Station, transferring Li Xiaoliang, the Deputy Director of Gaoru Port Police Station, to serve as the Director, with Old Xu from the forr Dongqi Port Police Station serving as Instructor.

docked at the inner berth of the passenger terminal three days ago.

Han Yu greeted Instructor Xu and followed Director Li onto 001 via the floating bridge.

Ma Jintao was startled and ca up to ask: "Director Yu, don’t you need to command in Binjiang, why did you co here?"

"The entire battlefield spans 226 kiloters from east to west, involving six districts and counties, six sub-command centers led either by mayors or vice mayors in charge of water resources. , just a lowly Deputy Director of a branch, who could I possibly command?"

"Command the ships, who else can command so many ships!"

"This is not the navy in combat, ships are just transportation ans. All crew mbers have already boarded, and what the captains, pilots, and sailors need to do next is follow the commands of the operational team leaders, such as when to start the ship and when to stop."

Li Xiaoliang, roughly understanding, laughed and asked, "Director Yu, so there’s nothing for you over at Binjiang?"

Today, after arriving early in the morning, the two engineers from the Water Resources Bureau had not eaten breakfast; Han Yu and Yang Yong invited the two engineers into the command cabin to have a al, leaning on the water cannon and laughing, "I can’t say it’s completely none of my business; the superiors hope I’d accompany the city leaders to command and control center at the Port Supervision Bureau, but I thought it better to find an excuse to slip away."
