Chapter 157: Chapter 127: The Great Eel-Catching Battle_3

Director Yu of Bailong Port muttered, "Everyone is probably busy with the New Year and can’t take care of the matters on the river."

Sister Zhu said helplessly, "Moreover, the river is not the shore. As the leaders have seen these past few days, if you block people’s way of making money, they will fight with you for their lives. If we play hardball, and those people actually jump into the river and lose their lives, what do we do then?"

"But we can’t just sit around and do nothing!"

As the person in charge of Bailong Port Passenger Pier, Director Yu was more anxious than anyone. He knocked on the table and said, "If the passenger ship is delayed, the passengers will scold us. And Bailong Port is not Binjiang Port; we only have three small hotels here.

The ship tickets are sold out already. If the passenger ship suspends service due to a congested waterway, where will tens of thousands of passengers stay in Bailong Port? In such cold weather, should we let them sleep in the streets!"

Xu Sanye always thought that announcing his na and shouting would make people listen.

But after three days of guerrilla warfare, he found that his na ant nothing to those who valued money over their lives.

And many of the boats fishing for eel fry were from out of town; they had never heard of him and didn’t know who he was.

What’s even more infuriating is that so boats illegally fishing for eel fry belong to aquatic companies from other regions, so co from township enterprises in other regions, and so co from eel farming units in other regions.

In their words, why does the Fishery Administration manage exclusive fishing permits, allowing only their own fishing companies to fish. The Yangtze River is not owned by the Fishery Administration alone; why shouldn’t others be allowed to fish?

Either impose a complete ban on fishing so that no one catches eel fry.

Huge economic interests combined with departntal interests made Xu Sanye feel powerless for the first ti.

Seeing Director Yu look at him with hopeful eyes, he weighed his options and resolutely said, "There are too many boats fishing illegally; we have neither the authority nor the manpower to manage them all, but we must ensure the normal operation of passenger transport no matter what.

The passenger ship can’t be delayed or suspended, and passengers can’t be stranded. The river is already chaotic enough; we can’t have chaos ashore."

"Director Xu, how can we ensure that?"

"Since the ticket inspection and embarkation tis are already a ss, you go back and communicate with the person in charge of the ship company to see if it’s possible to adjust the port entry and exit tis based on the tide changes and organize the departures of Bai Shen, Bai Wu, Bai Zhuang, and Bai Liu simultaneously."

Xu Sanye paused for a mont, then continued, "Although the North Branch Channel is narrow, the waves are not big, so we can organize Da001, 002, and Xiao001 to provide an escort.

When the passenger ship fleet enters the main channel and the river is wider, it’s relatively easier to evade each other. Then let 002 and Xiao001 return, but Da001 will continue to provide escort."

"Director Xu, Liuhe Port has a lot of eel fishing boats too," reminded Sister Zhu.

"Director Zhu, you’re in charge of communicating and coordinating with Liuhe Port. With the New Year so close, every traveler wants to go ho. They also don’t want tens of thousands of passengers to be stranded there."

"Should they ask the local police there to assist and dispatch law enforcent vessels for support?"

"Yes, we will escort the passenger ship fleet to the waters of Liuhe Port. Once the supporting vessels from Liuhe Port arrive, they will continue escorting Qing Shen, Qingzhuang, and Qingwu."

This is a big commitnt!

Director Yu felt this was a solution, and turned to look at Zhang Junyan, who had been silent all along: "Director Zhang, could you contact the Changhang Navigation Police Branch and the East Sea Shipping Police Bureau to coordinate and request the East Sea Shipping Police Bureau to also join forces with Port Supervision to dispatch law enforcent vessels for support?"

Zhang Junyan quickly said, "Okay, I’ll contact them once I get back."

Xu Sanye nodded with satisfaction and said with finality, "Director Zhu, Director Yu, Old Zhang, we prepare separately and aim to start the ard escort from tonight.

If anyone dares to block the waterway again, I won’t be polite with them; catch them one by one, control the situation first!"

If the passenger ship is delayed for five hours, Bailong Port will have an additional five or six thousand passengers.

If the passenger ship suspends service, Bailong Port will be overcrowded, and the waiting rooms will be bursting at the seams, which could lead to a serious incident.

Li Weiguo felt that this was the only option and looked up, "Director Xu, either we don’t escort, or if we do, we must not only send the passenger ship off but also bring them back. Relying only on Captain Wang will not be enough.

"After lunch, let Ma Jintao bring Salted Fish back."

Xu Sanye glanced at his watch and said sternly, "Since we can’t control the river now, let’s not bother for the ti being. Inform Director Jin, Captain Wang, Master Zhou, and Chen Zikun to co back and rest imdiately, to be able to participate in the escort tonight."

"Will they all be on Da001?"

"Old Li, tonight you and Old Zhang will be on 002 and Xiao001. Old Zhang, you from Bailong Port Police Station will also be on 002 and Xiao001. I’ll take Chen Zikun and the others on Da001; they will be enforcing the law on the river in the future, and this is also a training opportunity for them. I want to see if they get seasick."

"Yes!"

"Oh, and Old Li, you’re experienced in pre-trial review, study the legal regulations carefully. I refuse to believe our police can’t handle those who value money over their lives!"
