Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 378 - 266 We Can Buy!_3

"There are just no conditions for some units."

"If there’ve no conditions, there’s no way to operate, but it’s not like there are places without conditions. Now every district and county has a female vice district chief or deputy county magistrate, and even Binjiang City has female vice mayors."

"That’s something good! Why couldn’t we women be leaders!"

"But everyone’s situation is different, and you know mine; I’m really not suited to be a deputy director, yet the superiors insist on me taking the role."

Thinking about how the appointment had already been announced, and there being no choice but to accept the role of deputy director, Zhu Chunmiao couldn’t help but laugh and say, "Ningning, Xu Sanye used to say that he wanted to train your Salted Fish to be his successor and take over his duties. I don’t have his capabilities to train you, but I can scout out the path for you. Work hard, and you could become a deputy director in the future too."

Han Xiangning burst into a snicker, "I don’t want to be a deputy director at all. San’er is so exhausted just being a squad leader; not only is the work tiring, but so is the worry. Every day he’s stressing about where to find the money for boat repairs, it’s driving him nearly insane."

Zhu Chunmiao not only watched the two kids grow up, she was also their matchmaker, and she has always paid close attention to Han Yu, knowing that he "inherited" those two boats from Xu Sanye, and also inherited the hefty responsibilities.

She dearly wanted to help Han Yu solve the repair issues, but previously as just an office director, she had little influence to speak of or power to exert.

Now that she had become a deputy director, she felt she might be able to do something. She looked at Han Xiangning with a half smile and said, "Tell him not to put too much pressure on himself. When the ship reaches the bridge, it will right itself. The funds for boat repairs will eventually be figured out."

"The Linghai Police Bureau is out of money, and the Water Police Station too; I heard even the City Bureau is strapped for cash. He needs hundreds of thousands for the boat repairs, how can that amount be resolved?"

"Trust me, it can definitely be resolved."

"Sister Zhu, are you saying our bureau will foot the bill?"

"We definitely won’t be furnishing funds for the Linghai Police Bureau to repair their boats, that’s not something Director Tang could achieve, and even if Director Feng hadn’t been transferred, he couldn’t have done it either, after all, we have our own financial management regulations. However, we can buy the Dunship and Boat 001."

"We are buying?" Han Xiangning asked in surprise.

Zhu Chunmiao nodded and smiled as she explained, "Compared to the Linghai Police Bureau, the Changhang Bureau, and the Water Police Station, we have a greater need for the Dunship and Law Enforcement Rescue Boat, and we have more funding available as well. Even if we don’t buy now, we’ll eventually have to invest in construction."

Of all the law enforcement units on the river, the Port Supervision Bureau is the wealthiest.

Tax reform has left local finances strapped, but it hardly affects the Port Supervision Bureau.

It’s not that they stopped sponsoring the Water Police Station because of a lack of funds, it’s because the financial management system has become increasingly perfect, with audits at every turn.

Not to mention, just take the current Traffic Control Center building and the office building, which can be considered landmarks of Binjiang.

With the onshore office conditions improved, it’s only natural to consider upgrading the conditions for on-water law enforcement, and building a Dunship and procuring Law Enforcement Vessels is nothing but normal.

Han Xiangning caught on and asked with a laugh, "Sister Zhu, if we buy the Dunship and Boat 001, what will happen to San’er, Xiao Yu, and Uncle Zhu?"

"They can be assigned to the Changhang Bureau."

Zhu Chunmiao smiled and continued, "Xu Sanye and your San’er allowed us to use the Dunship as an office; we can do the same and allow them to use the Dunship as an office and for case work, same with Boat 001. The only change will be the signage on top of the Dunship. Our signs will need to be a bit larger, at least as large as San’er’s, otherwise, it wouldn’t be acceptable when reporting to the superiors."

This was definitely a solution.

Han Xiangning asked joyfully, "Would Director Tang agree?"

Zhu Chunmiao confidently said, "Didn’t your San’er previously submit a funding request report to our bureau? Director Tang takes it very seriously; it was even discussed at the party committee meeting. At that time, this solution was considered. Later on, Zhang Junyan tried to get something for nothing, asking for money from the city and using the city’s funds to buy from the Linghai Police.

Although they are not in the same system as the Linghai Police, they are still police. We didn’t want to contend with them, and we’d have been happy if he succeeded, so the matter was left at that. I’ll find a chance to report back to Director Tang and see if we can expedite this."
