Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 377 - 266 We Can Buy!_2

"I know, don’t worry, I’ve got this."

This daughter-in-law is truly outstanding.

Worried about her father-in-law and mother-in-law’s health, she insists on them having medical check-ups.

This afternoon they will have a routine examination, stay overnight in the city, and continue with additional check-ups at the People’s Hospital tomorrow morning without breakfast.

Han Ning watched Han Xiang Ning leave, then accompanied his elderly parents out of the post office, sighing, "Once San’er and Ningning get married and have children, they can be transferred back to the city, and won’t need to remain separated—one in Bailong Port and the other in Yingchuan Port."

Old Han had devoted much of his life to sailing and wished his children could work onshore. He couldn’t help asking, "With Director Xu gone and the head of the Water Police Station replaced, can San’er still be transferred to the Water Police Station?"

"It’s not a transfer to the Water Police Station; he’d be coming to our bureau."

"To your bureau, and work as your colleague!"

"Director Zhang, just like Director Xu, watched San’er grow up and cares a lot about him. Our Political Commissioner, the director of the Political Office, and the heads of the Police Department, Criminal Investigation Department, and Political Security are all fond of San’er. Moreover, the middle management in our bureau tends to be older, and now our superiors demand younger officials, so if San’er transfers here, he will definitely have better prospects than staying in the Linghai Police."

"But the compensation in your current position is not as good as before."

"Our current conditions are not as before, but it’s still better than in Linghai Police."

Han Ning thought for a moment and then laughed, "Besides, San’er has a Pilot Certificate, and his part-time piloting is officially approved by the city, allowing him to earn extra income legitimately, unlike Jiang Kun who has to sneak around like a thief for extra jobs."

The son had indeed made something of himself by obtaining a Pilot Certificate.

Old Han grinned and asked, "How much can he earn a month from part-time piloting?"

"That depends on the distance and frequency of piloting; the lesser amount is six or seven hundred a month, and the higher amount over a thousand. Plus, he knows about water firefighting and often gives lectures, for which he also receives fees. This half-year, his part-time earnings have exceeded his salary."

"Add it all up, and he’s making over a thousand a month!"

"He’s now a little tycoon, with his salary and part-time income adding up to several times mine. The bureau recently encouraged us to improve our qualifications, and Director Zhang even used San’er as an example in the meeting, stating that studying pays off, and without it, you won’t achieve anything and will only earn a basic salary."

"Then you should study too."

"My basics are poor, how can I study? I can’t engage in self-study exams, only correspondence courses."

Luo Yanfeng laughed, "A correspondence course is fine too; you can only advance if you have an education."

Han Ning looked back and, embracing her mother’s arm, smiled, "I’m not like San’er. At work, I’m somewhat like a contract system police transferred from the local police bureau. Besides, I’m a woman, and promotions don’t really apply to me."

Her son was talented enough to graduate from a technical secondary school and become a government official right away.

Her daughter was originally a shipman and later joined the Port Authority through a job placement at the Sailor Club as a worker, and then transferred to Binjiang Port Police Station for promotion.

As a "mid-career" official, she really couldn’t compare to officials like San’er.

Yet, this situation was a wake-up call for Old Han, who eagerly asked, "Ningning, your division is part of a public institution, and San’er is a formal official. If he transfers to your division, will he still be a formal official?"

"As long as he’s in our bureau, he remains an official, and his salary and benefits won’t be worse than staying at Linghai Police. Only if he transfers again in the future will it matter whether he is part of a public institution or a governmental agency. Moreover, these only apply to ordinary officers. If San’er can be promoted to Deputy Section Chief, or become a Vice Director, becoming a leadership official, these issues are no longer relevant."

"That’s true, as long as he’s a leader, no matter the unit, like I heard the manager of Lingbei Chemical Fiber Factory became the Deputy Town Mayor," Old Han nodded.

Luo Yanfeng couldn’t help but laugh, "You’re thinking far ahead, San’er is only twenty-two; we might not even be around by the time he becomes a leader."

...

Han Xiangning rushed to the bureau, grabbed a notebook, and entered the conference room only to learn that today’s meeting was about the appointments and removals of the bureau’s leadership team members.

Leaders from the Yangtze River Port Supervision Bureau were present, and leaders from the City Transportation Bureau attended the meeting.

They announced the removal of Vice Director Qian from his position and appointed office director Zhu Chunmiao as the new Vice Director!

Vice Director Qian was reaching the age for retirement and it was certain he would step back, so Han Xiangning, like her colleagues, wasn’t surprised, but she didn’t expect Sister Zhu to be promoted so quickly, especially when another popular department head failed to become Vice Director.

After the meeting ended and the bureau leaders saw off the higher-ups, Han Xiangning sneaked into the office, closed the door, and chuckled, "Sister Zhu, congratulations."

Old Qian was just delegated to a secondary position and wasn’t transferred, so it wasn’t appropriate to rush him out of the office.

As the former office director, Sister Zhu needed to vacate her place for the new director, planning to first move to an empty office on the fourth floor.

While packing her things, she laughed bitterly, "What’s there to congratulate about, I actually didn’t want to become the Vice Director."

If anyone else had said this, Han Xiangning wouldn’t have believed it, but she completely believed Sister Zhu.

That was because Sister Zhu’s partner was a leadership official, and her becoming a leader meant she couldn’t manage her family. Besides, having worked as colleagues with Director Li for many years, him being happy about her becoming Vice Director was unlikely.

As Han Xiangning didn’t know what else to say, Sister Zhu sighed lightly and said helplessly, "The reason the superiors wanted me as the Vice Director wasn’t for anything else, but mainly because they wanted a woman in the team of members."

"Sister Zhu, I don’t quite understand."

"Nowadays, the upper levels not only demand officials be younger, but also require that if conditions allow, there should at least be one female comrade among the members of the unit’s Party committee team, to reflect gender equality."
