Chapter 716: Chapter 488: Not Our Business!

Cracking down on illegal sand mining is easier than cracking down on illegal elver fishing, especially with such high-level attention from all sides, making the seizures on the river and the investigations on various docks along the shores smoother than anticipated.

The only thing Han Yu could do was assist in evidence collection.

This past day, the 001 had been like a ship "rushing to market," hurrying here to collect evidence, then there to collect more, becoming one of the busiest three vessels of the day, along with the Water Resources Commission’s hydrological ship and the Waterway Bureau’s survey vessel. By the ti it completed its mission and arrived at the anchoring area where the law enforcent ships were gathered, it was already 9:30 p.m.

The logistics team set up a reception point onshore, specifically responsible for receiving and aiding the crew mbers from other regions and units involved in law enforcent.

They managed to borrow two small shuttle boats from sowhere to facilitate the crew mbers’ transfers to shore.

Once ashore, one could register their unit and na, then take a Toyota minivan to the Sailor Club for a al or even to rest in a booked room. As for supplies like refueling and fresh water for the vessels, one could first register, and the logistics team would arrange it.

The 001 was the last to arrive. The leaders of the logistics team had all left, leaving only a young man and woman from the Water Resources Bureau on duty at the reception point.

Han Yu wasn’t soone who liked to take advantage of public resources, but he also didn’t want to miss out on an opportunity for Captain Fan, Old Zhu, Ma Jintao, and others to enjoy high-standard treatnt.

After registering onshore, he had intended to ask the Water Resources Bureau staff to call for a car, but they told him that the personnel from Binjiang were not within the scope of their reception duties.

"Comrade, is there a mistake? We’re not here for combat, we’re here to collect evidence."

"The sa applies to evidence collection. There are orders from superiors."

"It’s so late, and we don’t necessarily have to stay at the Sailor Club, we’re just wanting to get so food for everyone."

"Even for dining, it’s not possible."

Li Xiaoliang felt embarrassed and quickly tugged at Han Yu’s arm: "Let it be, we can take care of ourselves. There should be restaurants nearby."

Unconvinced, Han Yu knocked on the reception desk and said, "The two of you, how can you conduct your duties like this? You welco people from outside, but not your own; doesn’t that an ’the monks from afar can recite the scriptures better’? Besides, how much can a buffet al possibly cost you?"

The young woman, having never encountered such an aggressive police officer, anxious, said: "Comrade, please don’t lash out on , I’m just following orders."

"Then on whom should I lash out?"

"If you feel it’s unfair, you can talk to our leadership."

As they were talking, two water resources engineers who had been collecting evidence aboard the 001 ca ashore with the evidence materials. Once they understood the situation, they imdiately went to greet the staff.

Master Chen from Linghai Water Resources Bureau was a mber of the bureau’s party committee.

Although these two were not mbers of the party group at the City Water Resources Bureau, their status was equally detached. To the staff, they might as well have been the bureau leaders, so they imdiately called a car to help arrange for us.

It’s truly a world where people are judged!

Han Yu grumbled to himself and imdiately raised his walkie-talkie to call ashore for Captain Fan and Old Zhu.

"Salted Fish, I’m not going. The ship is anchored here and can’t be left unattended, and besides, the ship isn’t out of rations."

"If you’re told to go, just go quick; the car will arrive soon, I’ll stay and watch the ship."

"You’re now the leader, how can you stay on the river to watch the ship?"

"What can’t I do?" Turning to look toward Sanhe, Han Yu thought and then smiled: "Uncle Fan, you guys co ashore imdiately. Ningning will co over later, I’ll watch the ship with Ningning tonight!"

The young couple wants so alone ti on the ship...

Captain Fan laughed, raising his walkie-talkie to ask, "Is Ningning really coming?"

"Why would I lie to you? She arrived in the city this afternoon and is now at my father-in-law’s house."

"Okay then, we’ll pack up and head ashore."

...

All the anchored here were official ships, and as such, they all had to lead by example in observing mariti traffic rules, with each one keeping watch.

Han Yu returned to the 001 and called out via the radio.

In no ti, 001’s deck was packed with familiar faces.

"Salted Fish, have you eaten?"

"Ningning is bringing

food, she’s on her way from ho."

"Why didn’t you say so earlier? I have boxed als on my ship; the reception point sent them over, worried we wouldn’t have enough—they brought several extra portions!"

"I have an extra portion too; co over to my ship and eat, just need to heat it up."

"Ningning will be here soon, no need for the hassle."

Old Chen, a sailor from China Fishery Administration’s vessel No. 22, looked around and chuckled: "Salted Fish, this old tugboat of yours is well-maintained, huh? Others’ ships get older with use, but yours seems to be the opposite, getting newer."

None of the leaders ca to assist in the enforcent this ti, there weren’t even many formal law enforcent personnel, mostly it was true sailors.

Sailors gathering together naturally talked about ships.

Receiving praise from senior veterans made Han Yu swell with pride, and he smiled proudly, "Underwent major overhaul last year, replaced six steel plates just on the hull, and the main engine, auxiliary engine, and anchor machine are all new. Even the firefighting system is new, and it’s dual-use, both water and foam!"

"Pity the ship is too small to carry much foam."

"I’ve got a supply ship!"

"You have a supply ship?"

"Uncle Qian, I’m not just talking big, I really have a supply ship, modified from a 200-ton barge. It’s got freshwater tanks, oil tanks, parts storage, and a living area, equipped with a generator, and you can even move a fridge and gas stove on board to cook."

Seeing the skeptical looks all around, Han Yu excitedly explained, "That barge is almost like our old antique, picked up by the Water Rescue Center from the river. Although 001’s firefighting system is advanced, its endurance and sustained combat capabilities in fighting fires are inadequate, so I got that barge from the Port Supervision Bureau."
