Chapter 700: Chapter 480: Preventing Problems Before They Arise_3

"Sister Ling and the others?"

"Don’t you see what ti it is now? They’ve already eaten."

"Ah, it’s almost one o’clock. Director Teng, Captain Huang, sorry to have kept you both hungry. Let’s go, let’s go have lunch."

"It’s okay, Director Zhao, after you."

People commanding the project and the supervising company’s engineers had also eaten early; the canteen was empty. Han Yu called everyone to sit down.

Today, we will have additional dishes served.

Master Chen looked up at the head chef busy cooking in the kitchen and couldn’t help asking, "Director Han, we’ve been pleading with them for half the day; will they listen?"

Captain Huang had never thought Water Administration would have the opportunity to "confiscate illegal proceeds," and was so excited he couldn’t sleep well all night. He said, "Actually, there’s no need to be so polite with them. They have already illegally mined so much sand, we have every right to investigate and take action!"

Obviously, he’s soone who hasn’t seen much money, Zhao Hongxing couldn’t help but laugh.

"Captain Huang, we have plenty of chances to deal with them, but before we do, we need to make sure everything that should be said is clear, and everything that should be done is led by precedence, otherwise, it would be punitive without education."

If we were to enforce the rules today, at the very least, we could fine hundreds of thousands, and all the sparking Silver would be gone. Han Yu understood Old Huang’s feelings, thought about it and laughed again, "Today, you issued them written warnings, and they all signed the notice. If they continue to be obstinate, then they can’t bla us for being strict."

Han Xiangning added with a smile, "Nowadays, there is the Administrative Litigation Law, and civilians can sue the governnt. Besides, they have the money and will definitely hire lawyers when the ti for investigation cos. By managing our work ahead of ti, we’ll be able to reduce a lot of nonsense and save a lot of trouble later on."

Director Teng agreed deeply, turning around to say, "Captain Huang, the Waters Managent Regulations explicitly allow confiscation of illegal proceeds. However, ordering them to take redial action is quite vague. If we clarify our stance upfront, when we do end up in court, there will be no room for dispute."

"What if they take heed and dare not co back?"

"Captain Huang, that’s a dangerous thought."

"Director Han, that’s not what I ant..."

The conflict is imminent; so matters just need to be spelled out clearly.

Han Yu weighed his options and spoke frankly, "Why the problem of illegal sand mining in the upstream waters is difficult to root out isn’t just because Port Supervision, Police, and Water Administration each fight their own battles, failing to form a joint force like us, but it also involves the interests of so departnts. I’ve inquired these past few days; so law enforcent departnts upstream might have tight budgets and might prioritize revenue creation over enforcent.

Penalizing them thousands a month, appears as effective managent and results in comndations from Superiors, fostering so departntal improvents. But do those sand mining bosses care about this amount of money? Replacing enforcent with fines actually serves as a protective umbrella for illegal sand mining."

Truly a disciple of Xu Sanye, he stands very firm and resolute on issues of principle.

Old Huang realized his earlier mistake and subconsciously lowered his head.

Han Yu didn’t want the elderly predecessor to feel awkward, hastily saying, "But one thing is certain, the sand mining bosses who just left aren’t likely to repent so easily. I rember reading an article about capital in a newspaper which said: if there is 10% profit, it will be used everywhere; if there’s 20% profit, it becos active; if it reaches 50%, it will take risks; for 100% profit, it will dare trample all human laws; and for 300% profit, it would risk the gallows for any cri whatsoever. Based on my understanding of those sand mining bosses, this theory fully applies to them."

"Marx said this?" Han Xiangning asked, looking up.

"It wasn’t Marx, seems like it was from a foreign comntary."

Han Yu smiled and returned to the main subject, "Including the North Branch Waters, Binjiang Yangtze River coastline stretches over two hundred kiloters. We only have so many people, just a few departnts together have so few Law Enforcent Ships, so it’s challenging to cover the entire line. This point is clear to us, and they are very aware of it too."

Captain Huang in a low voice asked, "Director Han, are you saying they will definitely take risks?"

"Not just taking risks, based on our years of experience assisting Fishery Administration in protecting the Yangtze River fisheries, they will engage in guerrilla warfare with us next, they might even have people and boats spying on us. As soon as we make a move, those watching us will inform them. By the ti we reach the sand mining waters, the mining ships would have long disappeared."

"So, what should we do?"

"The real battle is just beginning. Next, we need to work on intelligence. They can watch us, and we can watch them just the sa."

"How do we watch?"

"While mobilizing the mass, we need to strategize in advance, set up police forces and boats to keep an eye on several large sand mining ships. 001 will receive an order from the Superior tomorrow to head to Liuhe Waters to carry out the task. First, we’ll hide 001 where they cannot surveil it, and then we’ll be able to catch them off guard."

The dishes were served.

While inviting everyone to eat, Han Yu continued, "Director Zhao and I were just chatting on the deck of the small dunship earlier, and ntioned that we’ll be visiting East Sea with Xiang Ning in a few days during the May Day holiday, planning to rest for several days. This is true, but also a diversion to let them let their guard down."

Every profession is distinctive from the other.

The Police have everything planned, what Water Administration needs to do next is to carry out the crackdown.

Old Huang stopped asking, grinned and said, "Director Han, Director Zhao, Chief Han, we’ll follow your lead, however you say we should strike, we will strike."
