After dealing with Chang Guadi, Shi Tian glanced at the Fishing Law Brother, who was already casting his line nearby. It seemed he was bored out of his mind at the station, so Shi Tian thought he should find him something to do. Otherwise, if he kept staring at the Smart Rod, any commotion could jeopardize its sale.
"Brother Law, have you been promoted? Did you get transferred to the station?" Shi Tian asked casually as he sat down next to the Fishing Law Brother, handing him a cigarette.
This year, Sanya's tourism market was exceptionally bleak, so it was understandable that he was feeling idle. But if work was slow, couldn't he find something to occupy himself?
"What promotion? Where would I go? I'm staying here until retirement!" The Fishing Law Brother seemed a bit annoyed by Shi Tian's probing.
Upon hearing that the Fishing Law Brother was still at the station, Shi Tian smirked. Climbing the ranks in the station wasn't easy; as an adult, if you didn't encounter a major case, the department would immediately take over if one arose. Forget about getting credit for it—just being acknowledged was already a blessing.
To get promoted, one first needed to stir up some action so that those above would remember your existence. But merely causing a stir wasn't enough; you also had to deliver results and bring some prestige to your superiors. If you could also manage to let them enjoy some benefits along the way, that would be even better!
"Rooting at the grassroots level and selflessly contributing—how admirable!" Shi Tian chuckled and said, "Brother Law, I heard that cursing is illegal. Why are there so many people cursing online? Why don't you guys do something about it? It's gotten to the point where even elementary school students are swearing!"
Cursing had become quite common, not just online but in reality as well. However, those who actually got locked up for cursing were still few and far between. If the Fishing Law Brother went after a few offenders for some criticism and education, he might end up getting cursed out himself!
"Even 'squatting' is illegal; if it happens more than three times, it's considered theft. If I were to arrest someone for just squatting, I'd probably get cursed out by their entire family!" The Fishing Law Brother spoke truthfully about the realities of law enforcement—balancing humane law enforcement with operational costs.
If someone were arrested for squatting and sentenced to a few months in jail, they could expect to face backlash from their community!
Of course, if someone filed a complaint and insisted on pursuing it, that would be a different story; they would have no choice but to act.
Cursing was similar; tracking down offenders required technical measures and sometimes even involved coordinating with law enforcement in other locations. In the end, finding someone usually resulted in nothing more than a reprimand or education.
The expenditure of manpower and resources just for a lecture could be wasted; often enough, as soon as you stepped out of your office, someone might be pointing at your back and cursing!
It wasn't easy being someone who rarely got cursed at; if you weren't careful, you might end up losing business nationwide!
With the New Year approaching, shouldn't you be preparing some gifts for your superiors? They would surely appreciate such offerings! The public would welcome them too!
As he lifted his rod, a carp weighing about half a pound came up. He unhooked it and casually tossed it into the Fishing Law Brother's Yu Hu.
"Business? What business? Public servants aren't allowed to engage in commerce!" Shi Tian rolled his eyes as the Fishing Law Brother reminded him.
"Giving gifts isn't illegal; receiving gifts isn't illegal either. But demanding gifts is illegal!"
Young people have long struggled with bride prices; it's been a headache for the country as well. As someone who upholds legal dignity, do you dare to relieve the people's worries and tackle this issue head-on? Will you be the first to strike against exorbitant bride prices?
The operational space in this situation is quite large. If handled well, capturing a typical example could turn someone into a hero. The Fishing Law Brother specializes in this; he knows exactly how to maneuver. Whether one wants to take action or dares to do so is another matter entirely.
The Fishing Law Brother's line went dark, and with a tug on the rod, he hooked a big fish!
Winter in Hubei is quite cold, especially after coming from Sanya. Even with thick clothes on, the chill penetrates to the bone. I added another layer of jacket for Li Ziyu, but her little hands were still icy cold.
We ran all the way to Huanggang, standing by the banks of the Yangtze River. A gust of wind from Xiao Feng made me shiver involuntarily.
Have the stars shown themselves in the past couple of days? Looking at the rolling waters of the Yangtze, Shi Tian turned to ask a few people responsible for feeding.
Old Kong had given Shi Tian the title of a fish expert, along with various impressive titles like inventor of Finless Porpoise feed. They sounded quite impressive, but none of these titles could be verified.
We could see them once or twice a day; they had been active in this water area, always appearing as a family of three. Hearing this, Shi Tian frowned, feeling a bit of a headache!
Finless Porpoises wean at around ten months; if a family of three is still together, does that mean the star hasn’t been weaned yet? But the star is already hunting, which isn’t a good sign.
Hunting without being weaned raises questions: Is it that the mother’s milk supply is insufficient, or is the star just too gluttonous? If it’s due to insufficient milk, is it because there aren’t enough fish in the Yangtze or because the star’s mother is getting old?
Either way, it’s not good news. However, the star had started hunting months ago; it would likely leave on its own soon. Only after it leaves would its parents prepare for another offspring.
