Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 992 - 655: May Not Be Able to Return!

The news that "Linghai Port" would relocate back to the Yangtze River Tail spread quickly.

Leaders from three nearby counties came inquiring, asking about the exact departure date and mode of travel, so they could organize a farewell ceremony. More importantly, they wanted to know how the vast amount of emergency materials left behind after "Linghai Port" returned to Linghai would be handed over.

With the emergency rescue ending, the next phase was disaster relief, which required a lot of materials. It stood to reason that all remaining materials should be left to them, but the materials were not purchased with funds from the "Linghai Development Management Committee", so Old Ge and Old Wang couldn't decide on their own. They had to call Huang Yuanchang in their presence.

Huang Yuanchang couldn't make the decision either, as the ownership of these materials had been transferred to the Jingzhou Flood Control Command this morning.

The exact distribution would be decided by the municipal leaders there.

Old Ge took this opportunity to briefly discuss the return plan with Huang Yuanchang. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Considering that the emergency rescue project documents lacked the signatures and seals of leaders from several superior organizations, Old Ge decided to take the documents to Jingzhou early tomorrow morning. He would ask Huang Yuanchang to help find the relevant leaders so that after getting the necessary signatures and seals in Jingzhou, they could then proceed to Hanwu...

The Changhang Bureau also needed this valuable set of emergency rescue project documents, and Huang Yuanchang readily agreed.

The leaders in Jingzhou City were easy to find, but the high-ranking leaders in Hanwu were hard to meet, so Huang Yuanchang, after some consideration, decided to first call and report to Director Yuan.

"Is it necessary to have the Beihu Flood Control Command sign and seal?"

"Having the director of the Defense Office sign and stamping the Defense Office seal would also suffice."

Huang Yuanchang worried that the director would consider this bureaucratic and, after some thought, added: "Director Yuan, I've looked over those documents; they are very detailed and professional. They can be considered a true record of the entire emergency rescue construction process, holding strong guidance and reference value for future flood and disaster prevention efforts as well as hydraulic construction."

The Yangtze River Committee has a Hydrological Bureau, which oversees numerous hydrological stations. Over decades of continuous measurement and reporting, they have accumulated very comprehensive hydrological data.

In contrast, the hydraulic construction data on the banks of the Yangtze River are not as complete, and can even be a bit disorganized.

Because the Yangtze River levee is repaired annually, with funds allocated from the national, provincial, city, county, township, and even village levels.

Adding the shifts and changes over time, the positions of many levee sections have likely changed numerous times.

For instance, during the recent collapse threat, a River Passage was unexpectedly excavated under the Yangtze River embankment!

This is a significant safety hazard about which the local government is completely unaware.

Director Yuan was mulling over the value of this documentation when Huang Yuanchang, seizing the opportunity, said: "Moreover... moreover, this set of documentation is extremely meaningful for the Linghai Reserve Camp. People in Binjiang have heard about their efforts in flood prevention, and exactly what they did should be corroborated with evidence, not just hearsay."

"Understood, I'll contact the Provincial Defense Command for you."

"The old director of the Linghai Transportation Bureau plans to go to Hanwu tomorrow."

"So soon?"

"The main body is scheduled to return in a few days, so it's understandable they want to make arrangements, and Director Ge has another task to achieve in Hanwu tomorrow."

Director Yuan curiously asked: "What task?"

Director Ge, a veteran and shrewd individual, made Huang Yuanchang realize he had a lot to learn from him and couldn't help but smile as he said: "The soldiers in the camp previously traveled by car, and now that the emergency rescue mission is complete, considering many soldiers haven't visited Hanwu or traveled by train, Director Ge suggested they travel by car to Hanwu to see Yellow Crane Tower and the Yangtze River Bridge first, then organize for them to return by train."

"That's a great suggestion. Like when people travel to the Capital for business, they like to take photos and save memories at Tian'anmen Square."

"So Director Ge will go to find the military representative at the permanent train station to buy tickets tomorrow."

"Can the military representative assist with this task?"

"Tickets are easy to obtain; the 404 Division will help make the arrangements."

"Almost forgot, the Reserve Forces are still military forces, and besides, they have a superior unit managing them now."

Old Ge was not simply suggesting this trip for leisure; his intention was for the Hanwu citizens to witness the people of Linghai firsthand!

Huang Yuanchang held back a laugh and continued: "Director Yuan, the current problem is that while the Linghai Reserve Camp has both land-based construction teams and water operational personnel. Contributions were made by all, and it wouldn't be fair to only bring the land-based flood-response personnel to Hanwu and leave the water operational personnel behind."

Director Yuan, not fully understanding, subconsciously asked: "What are their plans?"

"They plan to have the fleet dock at a Hanwu port for a day, allowing the onboard personnel to disembark and join those on land to visit Yellow Crane Tower and the Yangtze River Bridge."

"Letting the fleet dock in Hanwu for a day, hahaha, I understand now."

"Director Yuan, do you know?"

"When they arrived, they had already caused quite a stir along the Yangtze River. The Linghai Economic and Technological Development Zone Management Committee, the Linghai Port Project Command Center... those two Dunships your old unit sold to them have basically become Linghai's mobile advertising ships!"

"Thinking about it, they did draw some attention."

"It's not just drawing some attention, it's a downright spectacle they're creating!"

"Director Yuan, given the spectacle they've created, I will tell them there aren't enough docks for them to berth, and persuade them to head back early."

"They indeed made a great contribution by resolving two major dangers. If they want to advertise, let them advertise."

Huang Yuanchang jokingly asked: "Truly let them parade around town?"
