Binjiang Police Affairs Chapter 1319 146: You'll Be Promoted to Deputy Division Head

Han Xiangning thought he had misheard, and with a smile, asked, "Director i and Director Yang want to transfer to Jiangcheng Mariti Bureau?"

"Promote you to deputy director, as deputy bureau chief."

Director Tang turned to look at Huang Yuanchang, who smiled gently.

Han Yu had never noticed before, but now realized that Huang Yuanchang genuinely had the air of leadership. But he was unlike most leaders; he had an academic aura that made him seem wise—wisdom mixed with humility—giving the impression of a gentleman who is as gentle as jade.

Han Yu was pondering why he previously found Huang Yuanchang disagreeable, while Han Xiangning responded without hesitation, laughing, "Not only would I not co to Jiangcheng to be deputy bureau chief, but even if you offered to replace Director Huang as the chief, I definitely wouldn't co to Jiangcheng!"

"Is Jiangcheng not good?"

"It's not that Jiangcheng is bad; it's just not suitable for . My whole family is in Binjiang, how could I possibly co to Jiangcheng to work on my own."

Although Director Tang knew his old subordinate would be reluctant to transfer to Jiangcheng, as the Deputy Director of Jiangnan Mariti Bureau, he still had to urge him, smiling at Han Yu, "What if Salted Fish were transferred as well?"

"Impossible!"

"Everything is possible."

Director Tang picked up his teacup, smiling, "Our mariti division is managed vertically, just like Customs and the Smuggling Cri Investigation Bureau. As long as Salted Fish is willing to transfer to the Jiangnan Smuggling Cri Investigation Bureau, I believe the leaders at Jiangcheng Customs and Jiangnan Smuggling Cri Investigation Bureau would agree, and even welco it warmly."

Han Yu didn't expect Director Tang to say this, and couldn't help but laugh, "Director Tang, you've got to be kidding, I am a Binjiang person, how could I possibly co to Jiangcheng!"

"You were originally a Linghai person, didn't you transfer to Binjiang Smuggling Cri Investigation Branch from Linghai and work there?"

"And this is the third ti working in Binjiang." Huang Yuanchang added with a smile, "First ti to Water Police Division for a temporary post, second ti transferred to Changhang Navigation Police Bureau Fire Brigade as Deputy Division Commander. Salted Fish, you've seen the wider world, don't be like those with regional prejudices."

"It's different, Binjiang is near Linghai, and I've always been on the river with my transfers. Jiangcheng is too far from my hotown, the Jiangcheng people's accent is different from ours, so I won't transfer there, I'd rather stay honestly in Binjiang."

"Ningning can speak Jiangcheng dialect, Ningning grew up in Jiangcheng, Jiangcheng is Ningning's first hotown."

"I grew up here, but service in the military differs from civilian life. Nearly all my uncles and aunts who served alongside my parents have retired back ho, few stayed locally, most of my childhood friends went ho with their parents, so I have no friends here, much less relatives!"

Han Xiangning thought for a mont, then softly said, "I understand Jiangcheng dialect, but I'd never speak it. Frankly, Jiangcheng dialect is just cursing. If San'er and I were to transfer, Han Han would definitely have to co too, otherwise there'd be no fatherly or motherly love. I wouldn't want Han Han to grow up in an environnt where people curse everywhere."

One must admit, Jiangcheng dialect is indeed not very civilized; it's sumd up as bitingly brash!

It's usually with "biting" at the beginning and "brash" at the end, like complaining about soone's unpleasant speech—"brash speech is unbearably biting."

Also expressions like "brash hotel," "brash place," "brash person," "nothing brash to do," "I won't deal with you brashly," etc.

The word "brash" in Jiangcheng dialect can be a virtual word or an actual word, it can serve as an adjective, verb, auxiliary, and even an interjection—its application is extrely broad.

When Director Tang first arrived, he was equally unaccustod, and could not believe Han Xiangning cited it as a reason for refusal to transfer to Jiangcheng. He asked amusedly, "What if we transferred you to East Sea?"

"Transferring to East Sea would be fine, as long as you can transfer to East Sea, I don't care about being promoted; I'd be fine working as a staff mber."

"You want to go to East Sea so much and disdain Jiangcheng so much!"

"Director Tang, I am now both Binjiang person and wife of Linghai person, so of course, I want to go to East Sea. You know, us Linghai people only go to East Sea, never Jiangcheng!"

"Salted Fish, what about you?"

"As Ningning said, I am a Linghai person. Us Linghai people and Dongqi people only go to East Sea, how could we possibly end up in Jiangcheng? Plus, we have housing in East Sea, friends and relatives there, and even our accent is similar to theirs."

"So there's no consideration?"

"Absolutely not!"

Linghai people don't even want to go to Binjiang, let alone Jiangcheng, except possibly for university.

Director Tang knew this would be the result, and with feigned seriousness, said, "Xiang Ning, you are a backup cadre of our mariti system. The organization needs you to work here; if you don't co, you're not obeying the organizational arrangent."

Han Xiangning didn't think the old leaders would forcibly transfer her, laughing, "Director Tang, I am female, family cos first for . If my superior insists, then I can only resign."

"Resign?"

"Yes, I have old and young ones at ho; I cannot disregard my family."

"What would you do after resigning?"

"Work at our school, if my brother-in-law can be a teacher at the school, I can too; Dean Shao definitely won't turn away. I might even venture into business, open a freight forwarding company; business would surely be good, might even strike it rich!"

Director Tang didn't think Han Xiangning was joking and turned back, asking with a smile, "Yuanchang, any words from you?"

"What should I say, everyone has their own aspirations; can't force it."

"So report like this to Director i and Director Yang?"

"Reporting like that wouldn't work." Huang Yuanchang never expected to transfer Binjiang's "Fine Master" here, pretended to ponder for a mont, then said, "Xiang Ning is right, having elders and little ones at ho, family circumstances are evident here, transferring to work in Jiangcheng indeed isn't realistic, but she can help guide newcors."

"Continue."

"Personnel must move, cannot always stay put, will seek to report later, seeing if we can bring in key personnel from brother mariti bureaus for temporary post here, and arrange our 'key personnel' to go to brother mariti bureaus for study."

Obviously Huang Yuanchang's real intention lay elsewhere.

But truth be told, he had no other options.

Because the situation of Jiangcheng Mariti Bureau is distinct from other mariti bureaus, primarily being in a provincial capital city, and institutions have just undergone a restructure.

Previously, Jiangcheng Port Supervision Bureau split in two, so went to the newly established Jiangnan Mariti Bureau, which is at provincial level authority, belonging to superior leadership organs, overseeing several standard departnt level mariti bureaus and offices including Jiangcheng Mariti Bureau—not only is there a rise in position and treatnt, but also there's no need to dwell by the river every day, nor to go enforce laws on the river.

Those left behind were bound to feel discontent; after all, having worked in the sa unit before, why do you get promoted with pay raise to superior organ, whilst I stay at grassroots...

In essence, Jiangcheng's situation is very complex; Huang Yuanchang needs a chance to reorganize the team.

Director Tang understood, got up, smiled, "Then let's leave it at that, Salted Fish, Xiang Ning, Director i hasn't left yet, we must quickly go over, won't see you out."

Han Yu had no knowledge of Jiangcheng's situation, nor Huang Yuanchang's hidden motives; quickly smiled, "No need to see us out, Director Zhang arranged a car, I'll take the Changhang Bureau's police car back."

Surprisingly, Director Tang turned back at the door, smiling, "Xiang Ning, even if you don't transfer to Jiangcheng, you'll soon be promoted to deputy director level, though possibly not as deputy chief."

Han Xiangning was stunned, asking in disbelief, "I'll soon be promoted to deputy director level?"

"The Binjiang Yangtze River Bridge project has been approved; even if construction doesn't start next year, it will the year after."

"What's that got to do with ?"

"It's important for you."

Director Tang explained with a smile, "When Linghai Port was being constructed, I was anxious and worried, fearing major safety incidents in Sanhe Waters. Building the Yangtze River Bridge requires prioritizing water traffic safety; recently Director Yang spoke with your Director Xu, intended to transfer you to Changzhou Mariti Office."

Han Xiangning instinctively asked, "Let be Changzhou Mariti Director?"

"The bridge is being built within the jurisdiction of Changzhou Mariti Office, your strong sense of responsibility makes them uneasy unless you're stationed there." Director Tang smiled, adding, "Binjiang has the river but no bridge, sea but no port; inadequate transportation severely constrains Binjiang's developnt. The forthcoming bridge is critically important to Binjiang's economic construction; having you stationed there is also the wish of Binjiang City leaders."
