They are all soaring high now, surely they will support their junior brother.

Shi Shengyong was contemplating whether Salted Fish should be transferred to Director Yu's office or to Director Zhang's when Director Li of the Changhang Bureau's Political Office, holding a document, read aloud: "After thorough consideration, it's decided that Comrade Chen Zikun will serve as the deputy director and acting director of Bailong Port Police Station; Comrade Zhang Ping will serve as the deputy instructor in charge of political ideation at Bailong Port Police Station."

To replace Salted Fish as the acting director!

Chen Zikun was both shocked and delighted and instinctively glanced at Han Yu.

Zhang Ping was dumbfounded, unable to believe that happiness had come so swiftly.

"Relieving Comrade Han Yu from his duties as the deputy division commander at the Fire Brigade and the deputy director of Bailong Port Police Station, (note: reassigned elsewhere)."

Director Li put down the document stamped with the branch's official seal and smiled, saying: "Comrades Chen Zikun and Zhang Ping, appointing you as the acting director and deputy instructor of Bailong Port Police Station is the party committee of our branch's expression of trust in you. We hope you will quickly step into your roles and uphold the fine traditions of Bailong Port Police Station…"

Chen Zikun wanted to ask where Salted Fish was going, but now was not the time.

Director Li confirmed Han Yu's performance during his tenure at Bailong Port Police Station and prompted Han Yu to say a few words before having Chen Zikun and Zhang Ping express their commitment.

Immediately after, he represented the branch in expressing gratitude to Linghai Police Bureau and Four Factory Police Station for their support to Bailong Port Police Station, and he earnestly requested continued support from Political Commissioner Sun and Shi Shengyong.

Shi Shengyong spoke on behalf of Four Factory Police Station, and Political Commissioner Sun spoke on behalf of Linghai Police Bureau.

Everything proceeded as per protocol, and the meeting concluded swiftly.

Director Li, too, yearned for the weekend and declared the end of the meeting right after announcing the appointments.

Xiao Gong, who could have easily caught a ride to Linghai Bus Station with Political Commissioner Sun, didn't leave. Instead, the 22-year-old young man clung to Han Yu and burst into tears.

"What are you crying for? Aren't you embarrassed?"

"Director Yu, what will I do if you leave?"

"Isn't there Captain Chen and Instructor Zhang here? Besides, job transfers are a normal occurrence, and we all must follow the organizational arrangements. It's not possible to stay in one unit all our lives."

"So where are you going?"

"Yeah, where are you going?" Shi Shengyong asked urgently too.

Han Yu gently pushed away Xiao Gong and evasively said, "The superiors mentioned that they have other plans for me; I must follow the superiors' orders, and for now, I don't even know myself."

"That's impossible!"

"Why isn't it possible?"

"You must know such an important thing, whether it's Suqian or Jiangcheng, don't keep us in suspense anymore."

He had already transferred his work relationship to Linghai, now just waiting to finalize his position and grade.

By next Tuesday at the latest, everyone in Linghai Police Bureau would know.

Realizing he couldn't keep it a secret much longer, and seeing Chen Zikun, Zhang Ping, Captain Fan, and Old Zhu eagerly watching him, Han Yu said with an awkward expression, "How could I possibly leave Binjiang? I'm not going anywhere; I've been transferred back to Linghai."

Shi Shengyong was skeptical: "Transferred to our bureau?"

"Yeah."

"What are you transferred back for?"

Not saying it now would only make it more awkward later.

After a few deep breaths, Han Yu awkwardly said, "Director Shi, I'm sorry, I really didn't want to transfer, but the city insisted on bringing me back, both our branch and the Port Supervision Bureau hope for my return. If I don't obey the organization's arrangement, our hometown leaders will scold me for forgetting my roots, and the branch and Port Supervision Bureau leaders will scold me for being ungrateful, so I have no choice but to come back and vie for a position with you."

"What position are you going for?"

"Did the Organization Department talk to you?"

"They did, how did you know?"

"Director Zhou will probably talk to you soon too."

Shi Shengyong suddenly reacted and asked in surprise, "Salted Fish, is the city planning to make you the Director of the Port District Bureau?"

Han Yu confirmed with a smile, "The city and the bureau plan for us to work as a team. The Linghai Port Industrial Park District Committee and Management Committee will be inaugurated next Wednesday morning, and the district bureau will be established in the afternoon. Therefore, the official appointment will be announced next Wednesday."

"I'll be the Instructor, and you'll be the Director?"

"Yes."

"Hahahahaha."

"Director Shi, what are you laughing about?"

"I'm laughing at Yang Xihui and Li Guangming, who have been hopping around for so many days, and in the end, all their efforts came to nothing! I always said that crooked ways are useless, Old Yao and Fang Zhiqiang didn't believe me, it's hilarious, hahaha."

"Director Shi, are you upset that I am going to be the Director of the sub-bureau?"

"Why would I be upset? This is like keeping the good fortunes within us rather than letting outsiders benefit. Besides, being an Instructor can also lead to a Deputy Director position, I have nothing to be dissatisfied about."

With Salted Fish's strong background, partnering with him can only bring benefits, no harm.

Shi Shengyong became more excited as he thought about it, slapping Han Yu's arm and laughing, "Don't worry, I have the right attitude. I guarantee I will be a good deputy, fully cooperating with you. I am the Director of the Four Factory Police Station, and you originated from Four Factory Police Station. Our station has secured two Deputy Director-level positions in the Port District Bureau, thinking about it feels exhilarating!"

Han Yu didn't expect him to be so open-minded, but thinking about how hard it is to get promoted to Deputy Director at the Linghai Police Bureau, he felt it was normal for him to be so open-minded.

Then, thinking that some things are better off said than kept inside, and needing to hand over responsibilities to Chen Zikun and Zhang Ping, Han Yu decided to honestly reveal all the "inside information" about the transfer.

"The sub-bureau and the Port Supervision sold you to Linghai!" Chen Zikun asked, feeling both amused and helpless.

"That's why if I am ungrateful, I would be the sinner of the sub-bureau."

"Why would the Linghai Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government buy it even though it was so expensive?"

"It's not just about buying the Dunship and the antiques; it's also about obtaining an 'entry ticket.' After all, they are building a port, and establishing Linghai Port requires support from several Shijiang law enforcement agencies."

Xiao Gong asked with a distressed face, "Director Yu, the Dunship and the antiques are sold to Linghai, 001 is heading to Sanhe, and the new ship that's being built is also sold to Linghai, what am I supposed to do without a ship, and what about those people currently training at the Binjiang Port tugboat team?"

This was a very practical question, but Director He had already considered it.

Building the new ship had been a high-profile project, and simply selling the ship that was under construction would be hard to justify to both higher-ups and subordinates.

Han Yu explained with a smile, "You won't be learning to pilot and repair ships for nothing. Your Seaman's Certificates will come in handy. Director He and Director Peng of the Water Police Station, considering that both departments' motorboats are too old, decided to jointly purchase three patrol boats.

Changhang Bureau gets two, and the Water Police Station gets one, all built by a company in Hanwu that specializes in government boats. I've seen the blueprints; the patrol boats are beautiful. They have a transverse frame layout, single-layer bottom, 17 meters in length, 4 meters in width, and 1.55 meters in depth.

The boat bodies are made from fiberglass, which is light and strong, equipped with two 261-kilowatt high-speed diesel engines, maximum static water speed of 22 knots, and a maximum cruising range of 400 kilometers."

Seeing Xiao Gong's delighted expression, Han Yu added with a smile, "Although the patrol boats are not as large as those under-construction firefighting and rescue boats, they are not cheap either, costing over six hundred thousand each. Director He and Director Peng initially planned to have me visit Hanwu to check them themselves, but I couldn't leave, so I had to call Xiao Yu.

The Hanwu Branch is fitting out one boat. The manufacturer took Xiao Yu for a sea trial, and Xiao Yu reported good stability, strong maneuverability, and excellent control. Under high-speed conditions, it also has a small turning radius, suitable for pursuing and handling illegal vessels on the river."

As a police officer who pilots boats, one cannot always be without a ship.

Xiao Gong asked eagerly, "Is the purchase confirmed?"

"Confirmed, the construction of the patrol boats is fast. They will be launched and commissioned by next May at the latest."

"Our bureau ordered two in total, will our Bailong Port Police Station get one when they arrive?"

"001 consumes too much fuel and is not suitable for water patrols, so Bailong Port will definitely get one. I have already arranged this with Director He and Political Commissioner Jiang, and they won't disagree, or I won't transfer back to the Linghai Police Bureau."

"Thanks, Director Yu!"

"Not Director Yu, you should thank Big Fish Bureau!" Zhang Ping couldn't help but laugh.

Not only did he become the Acting Director, but he also was about to own a brand-new patrol boat, Chen Zikun couldn't hide his excitement and joked, "Now there are two 'Fish Bureaus'; how do we distinguish them?"

Thinking of Scholar Yu, Shi Shengyong laughed and said: "What's there to mix up? Old Yao's is the Big Fish Bureau, Salted Fish is the Little Fish Bureau!"
