On the cargo ship.
Su Tianyu looked at the staircase with some suspicion, walked over slowly and asked, "This staircase was installed later, right?"
"Yes, yes," the staff member immediately followed up, "It was changed later to make it easier for the sailors to get down. There's nothing in here, haha."
As Su Tianyu walked forward, the bulldog suddenly bared its teeth and wagged its tail ferociously.
"Go to the side." The staff member kicked the bull lightly, and immediately stood beside Su Tianyu and said, "Sir, do you want to take a look? There's nothing here."
Su Tianyu looked around the staircase and found nothing unusual. But just as he was about to walk over to take a closer look, a colleague from upstairs suddenly came down: "Tianyu, it's done, let's go!"
Su Tianyu raised his head and looked at the other party: "The investigation below is not finished yet."
"No need to check." A colleague came over, stretched out his hand to pull Su Tianyu and winked at him.
Every place has its own rules. Su Tianyu had just arrived and he had to adapt to and learn everything. Plus, he didn't notice anything unusual in the stairwell, so he just followed his colleagues.
On the deck of the freighter, the squadron leader had already communicated with the person in charge of the freighter. After seeing Su Tianyu and others come out, he took everyone back to the patrol boat.
Tonight's inspection went smoothly except for this little incident.
At around 1:00 a.m., the drizzle had turned into heavy rain and the typhoon was about to hit, so Longcheng began to close the port and no ships, large or small, were allowed to leave the shore.
The mission was over and all the patrol personnel returned to their units. Su Tianyu rested for a while, went to the dormitory building, and took a hot bath.
After warming up and changing into new clothes, Su Tianyu went to the office area with a cup of hot coffee, and saw many people talking and laughing around the squadron leader.
The captain of Team One is called Fang Zheng, who is 39 years old this year. He is usually very polite in dealing with people and is also very polite to Su Tianyu, so the two get along pretty well.
"Stop arguing, everyone has a share." Fang Zheng shouted while sitting on a chair.
Su Tianyu walked over curiously and asked with a smile: "What is this for?"
"That's a good thing." A young man next to him replied with a grin.
"What good news?" Su Tianyu also looked at Fang Zheng.
Fang Zheng took out more than 20 envelopes from the drawer and distributed them to the people present: "The number is the same for all of them. Spread out after you take them. Don't gather around me."
After taking the envelope, everyone immediately dispersed with smiles on their faces and returned to their seats.
Su Tianyu noticed that when several people opened the envelopes, they revealed the cash inside.
"Come on, brother, sit down." Fang Zheng greeted him with a smile.
"What's wrong?" Su Tianyu sat next to Fang Zheng, holding a cup of coffee.
Fang Zheng took out an envelope from the second drawer that was obviously much thicker than the previous one and threw it to Su Tianyu: "Yours."
Su Tianyu was confused: "What kind of money is this? Bonus?"
"Haha. Is there such a huge bonus? Drink it, brother!" Fang Zheng grinned.
Su Tianyu put down the coffee cup, opened it and took a look, and saw that there were about 1,500 yuan in it, which was almost equivalent to his salary for nearly two months.
"You asked me why some ships are exempt from inspection, right? This is the reason." Fang Zheng pointed at the envelope and said, "With this, they can be exempt from inspection."
Su Tianyu was speechless.
"Of course, we know what those ships are used for. Nothing serious will happen if we let them go. At most, they are transporting some scarce materials and contraband." Fang Zheng whispered, "The crew members are also human beings and have to make a living. If they do some small things in private, we should just turn a blind eye and make money together."
"... That can't be so much, right?" Su Tianyu glanced at the envelope and replied.
"Brother, this is because of the typhoon. Many cargo ships have changed their routes and are forced to stop in Longcheng, so today's bonus is higher than usual. Normally, in a large squad, ordinary team members only get 100 or 200 yuan. Otherwise, who would be willing to work for a squad just relying on a fixed salary?" Fang Zheng said with a smile, "You are different from others. We both get the same amount."
"This is not good. If others know about this...?"
"It's not a bad thing. With your connections up there, you can take my share if you want, haha." Fang Zheng said half seriously and half jokingly, "It's like that in our unit, people with connections get more, people without connections get less, but it won't be like there's nothing left."
Who is Gou Liuzi? He is a social expert who can take advantage of every opportunity and coax Li Mingsheng, Li Yuan and others into a tizzy, so he naturally knows how to get along with the leaders and colleagues in the unit.
"It's my first time to take so much, I feel a little embarrassed." Su Tianyu immediately said: "How about I treat you all, just spend this much money, it's a good opportunity for everyone to get to know each other."
"You're not short of money? Haha!" Fang Zheng joked with a smile.
"It's not that I don't have money, but I have to be grateful. Your brother Fang has taught me so much, so I have to thank him." Su Tianyu immediately replied, "It's settled. I'll treat everyone to a drink and look for my sister later!"
"That's why you're so popular. You know how to get things done." Fang Zheng didn't refuse. He immediately stood up and said, "Tianyu will treat us later. Let's go to Neigang to talk to the little sister."
"Yohoo!"
"That's awesome, buddy!"
"Brother Tianyu is quite likable!"
“…!”
Everyone in the room cheered happily.
After they chatted for a while, Fang Zheng handed Su Tianyu a stack of brand new change: "For the temporary workers."
"How... do I pay for this?" Su Tianyu looked at the change with some surprise.
"Thirty per person." Fang Zheng replied calmly, "You go and distribute them. I'll go upstairs."
“They just take thirty?”
"That's good enough. They're all from outside editors. It's good enough." Fang Zheng replied, then took out three very thick envelopes from the drawer, stood up and said, "I'm going to the leadership duty room upstairs. I'll be down in a bit and we'll leave."
"Okay!" Su Tianyu nodded.
…
Five minutes later, in the small temporary workers' lounge, Su Tianyu walked in with a smile and said, "Give everyone some subsidies."
When everyone heard this, they stood up happily and each received thirty yuan. Some looked satisfied, while others looked numb.
Su Tianyu looked at the group of people and suddenly said, "I'll treat you later. Let's go out for dinner together!"
"Sure!"
"Going for a drink?"
"Thank you, Boss Su!"
“…!”
Everyone in the room was very happy to see Su Tianyu take the initiative to invite them.
At the bedside, Hou Guoyu said calmly, "I won't go. I'll go home after get off work."
"One piece?!" Su Tianyu asked.
"There's nothing to talk about, so I won't go." Hou Guoyu politely declined, "Thank you!"
…
On the shore, in the unloading port.
A middle-aged man stood on the freighter with the dog and whispered to the people below: "Don't leave in a hurry. There are too many people here. Wait a while. At five or six in the morning, use the cargo box to send the things in the secret cabin out."
"good!"
