Chapter 191
The Binqi River starts from the Yingchuan Port Lock in the west and ends at Tanglu Port in Dongqi County in the east. One of the main inland waterways and drainage channels.

Since the Yingchuan Port area is not far from the urban area and is by the river, it is planned as a development zone by the city.Roads and factories are being built everywhere, and there is a large demand for building materials such as yellow sand, stones, and steel.

Although the sediment accumulation in the Binjiang section of the Yangtze River is severe, there is no sand needed for construction, so it needs to go to Jiangyin, Zhenjiang, Yangzhou and other places in the upper reaches to purchase it.

There are only five small hills in Binjiang City, including Lang Mountain, which is located on the southwestern riverside of Binjiang City. The altitude is only 107 meters. They all point to the five small hills to support the facade. Procurement of stones in the region.

Binjiang also does not have a large steel plant, and steel also needs to be purchased.

Han Zhengxian has been helping several building material companies in the development zone to transport building materials since he changed the ship.I made several trips to get acquainted with suppliers, and occasionally helped to transport sand and gravel to the East China Sea.

The farthest to the west is Zhenjiang, and the farthest to the east is Donghai. Don’t go too far, just run at your doorstep.

This morning, I passed the ship lock of Yingchuan Port, sailed to the Longwang Bridge and anchored the cable, and waited in line to unload stones at the pier.

Considering that there were several ships waiting in line for unloading, it would be dark in his turn, and it was Sunday again. The little grandson would definitely not have to go to school, and the boat camp port was not too far from the city, so he simply went ashore and sent a message to the person in charge of the dock. After a few cigarettes and a few nice words, I called my daughter in his office.

I don't know if I don't contact him, but when I contact him, I'm shocked, relieved and overjoyed, and hurried back to the boat to tell my wife San'er the good news that he found his partner.

"I'm looking for that little girl from the Hong Kong Supervision Bureau!"

"Well, they are classmates, and that little girl is also good-looking, even prettier than Xiaohui from Lao Lin's family."

San'er actually talked to that Hong Kong supervisor...

Luo Yanfeng couldn't believe it was true, and murmured: "But that lady's surname is also Han, so is it appropriate for both of them to be surnamed Han?"

The son found a partner by himself, without his parents worrying about it, or even helping them build a house.

The future bride (daughter-in-law) has a good job and a good family. The father-in-law is the deputy chief engineer of the Meteorological Bureau, and the mother-in-law is the head nurse of the Municipal People's Hospital. Where can I find such a good thing.

Old Han was not only happy, but also relieved. After all, it is the responsibility of parents to help their son find a partner. Now there is nothing to worry about. He couldn't help laughing: "It's not related by blood. What's the age, what's not suitable."

Luo Yanfeng still felt a little absurd, and said with a bitter face: "But we don't care if San'er is asked to enter the door backwards. Anyway, the two sons, I am afraid that San'er will not be able to hold his head up in the future."

"It was Han Ning who proposed the door upside down. There are two young ladies and no sons."

"Han Ning is really too, why didn't he discuss such a big matter with us."

"The family's conditions are so good, but we don't care what we want. Being a relative is like doing business. If you want to make a deal, you must show some sincerity."

Old Han lit a cigarette, thought about it and smiled: "Besides, Han Ning didn't really let San'er intrude, but just made his parents happy."

"I have promised to others, do you want to go back on it in the future?"

"There's no need to go back on your word. Think about it. My family name is Han, and my family's family name is also Han. If two children get married and have a child in the future, they must also be named Han. Not barking the door backwards."

What Luo Yanfeng was most afraid of was the Hong Kong Superintendent. When she thought of the girl from the Hong Kong Supervision Bureau, she felt agitated in her heart. She hesitated and asked, "Would San'er be willing?"

"The young lady is so handsome, can San'er not like it?"

Old Han asked back, grinning and said: "Han Ning said that he has gone to live in someone else's house, and he is called his parents."

My own son is called my parents.

Luo Yanfeng was feeling a little uncomfortable, and Lao Han smiled again: "Before I came back, Han Ning called the lady of the Hong Kong Supervision Bureau. They said that her father went to Jiangcheng for a meeting, and her mother was on duty today. She will follow up with her later." Come here with Han Ning."

"She's coming here!"

"Come and call our parents. It's the first time for the bride to come to the house. There should be no mess on the boat. Clean it up quickly. I'll go ashore to buy some vegetables and some fruits that Dongdong likes to eat."

"What's the first time I came to the door? During the Chinese New Year, she and San'er went to you and Han Shen to help sail the boat. Before the Chinese New Year, she was on an old boat that was sold."

"It's different, she wasn't our bride at that time."

"She is a Hong Kong supervisor, and I'm a little scared."

"She is a Hong Kong prison supervisor, but she is also your bride. She has nothing to be afraid of when she sees you and wants to call her mother."

Old Han got into the cabin, found out the money hidden in the corner, counted and said with a smile: "Han Ning said that his in-laws had wrapped money for San'er, we can't be stingy, I'll buy some red paper by the way, and wrap 200 yuan for her later." Yuan."

"Okay, two hundred is two hundred."

"Pack up and change your clothes. The clothes that Han Ning bought for you for the New Year haven't been worn much, so just wear that one."

"What about you?"

"Take out my New Year's clothes too, and I'll change them when I get back from shopping."

……

The old couple were extremely busy, and Han Xiangning, who had just received the news from Han Ning, was both overwhelmed and a little nervous.

For boat people, the boat is home.

It was the first time to formally go to the Han family to meet the future parents-in-law, so he couldn't empty-handed, and found out all the good wine and cigarettes given by his father's comrades-in-arms and apprentices.

I felt that it was still a little short, so I quickly rode on a small Qingqi to buy fruit.

This is the first time I formally meet my future parents-in-law. At that time, there will be only San’er’s sister and Xiao Dongdong by my side, without any other elders to accompany me. It’s really embarrassing and nervous.

She really wanted to get her younger sister, but she thought that her younger sister's success was more than failure, so she had no choice but to give up that idea. She bought a large bag of fruit in such a daze, rushed to the dormitory area of ​​the Port Authority, and found Han Ning who happened to be resting today.

"Lingling, what are you doing with so many things?"

"Uncle and aunt finally come back, I can't be empty-handed."

The girl was so embarrassed that her pretty face flushed red.

Han Ning held back a smile and said, "San'er never brought anything to your parents."

Han Xiangning stuffed the bubble gum he bought by the way to Xiao Dongdong, bowed his head and said, "San'er took it."

"He really brought it?"

"I really did. One time I brought a case of Chidao beer in cans and a lot of fish."

"He also knows that it's not easy to bring things to your parents."

"Sister, what do you mean by that?"

"You know more about San'er's savings than I do. When he was a child, his grandparents and uncle gave him New Year's money, and he was reluctant to spend it. Han Shen and I borrowed from him after the New Year's money was spent, and he refused to borrow it even if he was killed. No matter how he cheated, he couldn't cheat him." money."

Han Xiangning was amused, and laughed, "He's quite stingy, hahaha."

Han Ning took the safety helmet from the basket on the front of the car, and said with a smile, "Let's go, don't make my parents wait. By the way, you can no longer call you uncle and aunt, you have to call me the same as San'er calls you father and mother. Dad, Mom, Dad."

"I'm sorry..."

"With me here, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Dongdong, you stand in front of my aunt."

"Oh."

Xiaodongdong likes to ride a motorcycle the most, and immediately climbs onto the small pedal.

This is my aunt...

Han Xiangning handed over the cigarettes, wine and fruits to Han Ning, stepped on the little Qingqi and said with an embarrassed face: "Sister, I... I'm still a little scared."

"You are afraid of them, and they are afraid of you."

"Why are they afraid of me?"

"You are a Hong Kong supervisor. My parents are most afraid of Hong Kong supervisors." Han Ning sat behind her and said with a smile, "Besides, it's not like you haven't seen them before."

"Okay, Dongdong, stand still and don't move around."

Han Xiangning plucked up his courage, stepped on the gas lightly, and took his little nephew and sister-in-law to the direction of Yingchuan Port.

Yingchuan Port is an important ship lock on the Binjiang Yangtze River channel. Most of the cargo ships over [-] tons in Binjiang County, Changzhou and Linghai counties enter and leave the Yangtze River through Yingchuan Port.

The Bailonggang ship lock in Linghai is too small to pass ships over [-] tons, so it cannot be ranked among all the ship locks in the Binjiang waters.

This year, the Harbor Supervision Bureau often cooperates with the Water Branch to inspect the passing ships at the ship lock of Yingchuan Port.

Because of the large number of boats at Yingchuan Port, the Fish Bureau even planned to set up a water security police squadron at Yingchuan Port.

As a staff member of the Traffic Management Center of the Binjiang Changjiang Harbor and Shipping Supervision Bureau, Han Xiangning was so familiar with that area that she didn't even need to ask for directions, just talked and laughed with Han Ning, and arrived at the destination in less than 10 minutes.

Lao Han and his wife were waiting on the shore, and they greeted them as soon as they saw them.

"Dad, Mom, this is what Ningning brought to you."

"Come here, come, what to bring. Oh, this wine is very expensive, and this cigarette is not cheap!"

"Uncle, I didn't spend any money on the cigarettes and wine, they were gifts from others."

"What kind of uncle, we are all a family now, we should be called Dad!" Han Ning said with a chuckle.

Xiao Dongdong likes her aunt who always buys candy for herself, she raised her head and said, "Aunt, my dad also said that you should call me grandpa."

Han Xiangning was very embarrassed by the little guy's words, and quickly said: "Dad, Mom."

"Okay, okay, get on the boat first, just stop here for the little Qingqi, I'll help you look after it, you can't lose it."

Others' brides don't necessarily call their parents-in-law when they get married. The brides of their own families start calling before they come in, and their brides are still Hong Kong supervisors.

Lao Han was very happy and proud, picked up his little grandson, and hurriedly greeted his bride to board the boat.

Luo Yanfeng was also very happy, but she was a little nervous when facing the bride who was a Hong Kong inspector, so she took the things from the bride and walked behind.

After mustering up the courage to call out her parents, Han Xiangning was not as nervous as before. Looking at the boat parked by the river, she asked, "Dad, Mom, is this our new boat?"

"Yes, Ningning, if it weren't for you, we really wouldn't be able to make up our minds to change it. Take a look at how this boat looks."

"This ship is more than a hundred tons."

The bride is worthy of being a port supervisor, she can tell the approximate tonnage at a glance...

Lao Han secretly praised one, and explained with a smile: "At first, I planned to change to a [-]-ton ship. Later, Manager Jiang of our shipping company said that we need to change the certificate for a [-]-ton ship, which is the same as that of a [-]-ton ship. The certificate is the same. It is better to change the eighty or ninety tons, so as not to change the certificate.

Later, I thought that since I want to change the ship, I must change it to a larger one. The bigger the ship, the more cost-effective, and the cost will not be much higher.In the end, I made up my mind and changed to this 120-ton one. "

Han Xiangning was not in a hurry to get on the boat. He stood on the shore, looked carefully, and asked, "Dad, what host do you use?"

"4105."

"4105 is about the same."

For those who run boats, it is also good to find a bride who understands boats.

Ever since he got a new boat, Lao Han couldn’t help showing off when he saw his old neighbors and colleagues. He didn’t expect to have a common language with the bride who didn’t come in today. He hugged his little grandson and beamed with joy: “The new machine is fuel-efficient. It's all worth it."

What Han Xiangning really cared about was not whether the main engine was fuel-efficient. She walked along the river bank from the bow to the stern, and said back:
"Dad, Mom, although you have marked the name of the ship on the bow, the name of the ship is blocked by the tires. The tires cannot be moved, otherwise the protection will not be achieved, so the name of the ship must be repainted."

A Hong Kong supervisor is a Hong Kong supervisor, even if the bride who has not entered the door is still a Hong Kong supervisor, check it as soon as she comes!
Lao Han froze, not knowing what to say for a while.

Luo Yanfeng looked back at her daughter who was smiling and said nothing, hesitated for a moment and said: "There is paint on the boat, we will repaint it after dinner."

"The port side of the bow should also be brushed, and it cannot be blocked by the tires like this side."

"Okay, let's brush."

"There is also the port of registry at the stern of the ship. The characters are too small, and there are only three characters of Linghai Port without Chinese pinyin."

"Really, let's brush together after dinner, and write bigger when the time comes."

"The load line is not clear either, so it's best to trace it together."

"Okay, listen to you."

"Mom, why don't you hang black balls at anchor?"

"We are waiting to unload the cargo. Besides, this is an inland river, not a river."

"It's the same for the inland river and the Yangtze River. Mom, I'm not troublesome. I'm worried that you will encounter serious law enforcement officers. When the time comes, they will be fined as much as they need to do. They don't care if you are waiting to unload the cargo."

Lao Han realized that his bride was different from other brides, and hurriedly said: "Ningning, you are right, we will pay attention in the future."

San'er is afraid of her, that's all.

Now even my parents are afraid of her, and they are submissive in front of her.

Han Ning realized that the sister-in-law in front of him would soon replace him and start the family, and that he would have far more say in this family, so he covered his mouth for fear of laughing out loud.

What surprised Han Ning even more was that he didn't know if there was nothing else to talk about, so he got on the boat and sat down for a while, and his sister-in-law had to look at the various inspection books and entry and exit visas on the boat like an inspection.

Mom and Dad didn't dare not listen, and hurriedly dug out a lot of procedures.

Han Xiangning read each book one by one, and helped sort it out after reading it, and pointed out the existing problems.

Immediately afterwards, they checked the light signals, and even changed the way to test Comrade Old Han's water traffic regulations.

"Dad, I know that you are an old driver with rich driving experience. But now the safety control on water traffic is becoming more and more strict. If you continue to drive the boat like before, you will definitely be fined if you are discovered by the port supervisor."

"We'll pay attention later."

"It's not enough to just pay attention. You must first understand how your certificate is tested?"

The short-term training class organized by the shipping company, the cadres of the Water Traffic Management Section of the Transportation Bureau took the test with the test paper, which is similar to the open-book test...

In short, the local port supervisor is not as strict as the port supervisor of the Ministry of Communications.

Lao Han looked embarrassed and didn't know how to explain it.

Luo Yanfeng's education level is not high. She also took the exam and successfully obtained the certificate. She was even more embarrassed than her wife.

Han Xiangning looked up at his future parents-in-law, took out a blank piece of paper, picked up a pen and wrote while saying: "Dad, Mom, I will write you a formula for the number of lights. You should read it when you have time. You must read it." remember."

"Okay, let's see."

"On sailing ships, navigation lights; motor ships, with mast lights; red and green side lights and tail lights, the length of the ship is more than 50 meters; plus a rear tail light, tugboat foremast two mast lights..."

After Han Xiangning finished speaking, he drew a line under the written formula, and continued: "What I just said was the lights, now it is the shape.

The anchored ship hangs black balls, loses control and hangs two balls up and down; runs aground and vertically three black balls, mine-sweeping three balls form a triangle; the mast top with one ball at each end, towed over 200 meters..."

Old Han muttered to himself that I understand all these things, but sometimes he couldn't remember and forgot to hang up, but the bride was so serious that he could only nod repeatedly.

Luo Yanfeng really wanted to cook, but the bride was in class, and she didn't dare to leave unless the bride spoke.

Dad has a very stubborn temper, sometimes he doesn't listen to what he says, but now it's all right, do you dare not listen to what the bride says?
Safety is very important when running a boat on the river. There is no harm in studying hard, at least you can get less fines.

Han Ning suppressed a smile, and pulled two stools: "Dad, Mom, sit down and chat, take your time, don't worry."

Being educated by a bride who didn't enter the door, what kind of thing is this...

Luo Yanfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she turned her head and said, "Sit down, I'll cook."

Han Ning sat down with his mother, and said with a smile: "You guys accompany Ningning, I will cook the rice, and I will be in charge of frying the vegetables. Ningning, think again, what problems still exist in our boat."
