Binjiang Police Affairs

People from Liangzhuang not only are good at networking but also like to show off.

Han Yu was completely convinced and couldn't help but laugh: "Quite imposing, it looks like a Police Bureau, even more imposing than our bureau."

"Imposing on the outside, and not bad on the inside either. Come on, I'll accompany you for a visit inside."

"Secretary Lu, you are so busy..."

"It's fine, let's go in and take a look. Xiao Wang, you take on the introductions."

It seems he is indeed a leader, or else Secretary Lu would never be this courteous.

Wang Yan recovered from her surprise and quickly laughed: "Captain Han, Secretary Lu, please come this way."

As Old Lu led the three of them inside, he spoke with a hint of regret: "Salted Fish, I told you over the phone last time, the new Police Special Envoy also has the surname Han. He hasn't been working in the police for very long, and you are a seasoned officer. But it's a pity he's on a business trip; otherwise, this would have been a good opportunity for you to exchange ideas."

"What do I have to offer for advice? Besides, am I that old?"

"You started working before him and have been with the police for eight years. Doesn't that make you a senior comrade?"

"Well, that's true."

While talking, everyone had already entered the lobby.

Police officer Wang Yan with freckles on her face introduced with a smile: "Reporting to Captain Han, this side is our household registration office; usually, it's just Yali and me working here. Across is the duty room, where members of the Cooperative Defense Team are on watch 24 hours a day..."

Before Han Yu could speak, Han Xiangning exclaimed in surprise: "You have a computer!"

"The computers and printers were... just recently equipped."

"Not bad, Han Yu, your bureau doesn't even have them!"

A bureau of Standard Department Level, and yet its office environment and equipment are surpassed by a small police office.

Han Yu was embarrassed and did not know how to respond when Old Lu started boasting with his arms swinging in habit: "How can we carry out economic development without good security? The security situation has deteriorated over the years, so it's highly necessary for the superiors to decide on a crackdown. Our township party committee must support the police work; office spaces, office equipment, everything that should be considered has been taken into account by our township party committee."

The office spaces provided by the township, but was the office equipment really related to the township?

Wang Yan really wanted to ask but didn't dare to; she could only nod with a smile.

Han Yu and Han Xiangning didn't know what to make of it but were genuinely impressed by Secretary Lu's decisiveness.

Old Lu was very much enjoying being admired by colleagues from two major divisions as he energetically pointed at the photos on the wall: "Although we only have a police office in Liangzhuang, the number of our police officers and Cooperative Defense Team members is not less than that of Dinghu Police Station. Salted Fish, this is the new Special Envoy, Comrade Han Bo.

I sent him to the north to capture fugitives. He called yesterday to tell me they got them and are on the way back with the prisoners. Once we get the fugitives back, our township is going to hold a large-scale public arrest event. By the way, how long are you staying this time?"

Han Yu quickly said: "We are heading back this evening; I took leave to come here."

"What a pity. If you weren't in a rush to return to Binjiang, you could participate in our public arrest event and give a speech on stage with me."

"Secretary Lu, you're such a joker. What right do I have to be on the stage and what would I even say?"

"You are the Deputy Division Commander of Changhang Bureau. Your presence on the podium would elevate the status of the event."

In terms of passion for work, this man before him was on par with his mentor.

But when it comes to showing off and boasting, his mentor truly couldn't compete.

Han Yu was secretly amused when Old Lu changed the subject again: "Salted Fish, even if I hadn't met you and Ningning today, I was planning to call you in the next couple of days."

"Secretary Lu, what's the matter?"

"Manager Wang said your white-collar classmate from the Hong Kong-funded enterprise is striking out on her own and plans to invest in building a factory."

"That's right."

"If she's looking to build a factory, she'll need to construct a building. Manager Wang has been in touch with her; she said funds are tight and needs the construction company to provide financing in advance. There's risk in financing up front, so I wanted to hear your opinions on whether this project is indeed feasible."

Before Han Yu could speak, Han Xiangning said without hesitation: "It's feasible, Secretary Lu. President Lin may be young, but she is very capable. Once her factory starts running, there will be no shortage of orders."

Old Lu laughed heartily: "That puts my mind at ease."

Starting a factory is risky; how can you guarantee such a big matter?

Han Yu was puzzled and at a loss for words, and Old Lu switched topics once more: "Ningning, since you know President Lin quite well, you can definitely work on our behalf. It's just a clothing factory, isn't it? Wherever it opens doesn't matter, right?"

The discussion had shifted from handling construction to attracting investment, a true example of pushing one's luck.

Han Xiangning was completely won over and couldn't help laughing: "Secretary Lu, I think the chances of President Lin starting her factory in Liangzhuang are slim."

"Why?" comrade Old Lu waved grandly: "Whatever incentives Linghai offers her, Liangzhuang can offer the same!"

"It's not so much about the incentives; it's mainly that Linghai's light textile industry is more developed. Materials like clothing fabric, buttons, and zippers can all be sourced nearby, and there are many factories in Linghai that produce industrial sewing machines needed for production."

"The light textile and clothing industry in Linghai has already taken shape?"

"Just the Sanxing Home Textile Market alone has a yearly trading volume of nearly ten billion."

"It seems our steps have been too small, our thinking not open enough. We are really falling behind in terms of economic development."

Old Lu sighed endlessly, his expression saying time waits for no one.

Han Yu felt there was no need for him to reproach himself; the conditions in Liangzhuang were just like that. It's too remote, over thirty kilometers from Si Gang County, known as the "Siberia" of Si Gang, with inconvenient transportation, how could economic development happen?
