Chapter 51 Blue Chimney Pier (2)

Blue Chimney Wharf is located between Yangjing Port in Pudong and Minsheng Road. It is the largest and most advanced wharf in all ports in Shanghai.

Han Hui took the tram and was stopped at the dock gate. She said, "Brother, I'm here to see Chief Qiu from the Security Department. My uncle made an agreement with him to just go to the dock and see him directly."

In such a mixed place, letting everyone know that you have a backer can avoid a lot of trouble. She is not afraid of trouble, but she prefers to avoid it as much as possible.

When the guard heard this, he politely invited her to go inside to rest, and he asked someone to notify Section Chief Qiu.

Not long after, a burly man came in. He was wearing short clothes, with broad shoulders and strong and smooth muscle lines. He looked very powerful.

After looking her up and down, the man asked with an unpleasant expression, "Are you Han Hui?"

Han Hui nodded: "Yes, I am Han Hui. I don't know your name, big brother."

The man said with a straight face, "Follow me!"

Entering the dock, Han Hui discovered that the ground inside was paved with cement and the road was very flat. As she walked, she saw that the dock was very large, with many office buildings and warehouses.

Li Jingang got word from the section chief this morning that they'd hired someone, who would report today and be assigned to their third group. He was thrilled, but he hadn't expected her to be a young, immature girl. This was sheer nonsense. A girl like that shouldn't be assigned to protect the cargo and the docks, and she'd be lucky not to get scared to tears by those idiots.

After walking for six or seven minutes, the two men arrived at a four-story red brick office building.

Li Jingang brought Han Hui to his office, then asked with a gloomy face, "Do you know what I do here?"

Han Hui nodded in understanding. "The Safety Department is primarily responsible for enforcing safety regulations and measures to ensure safety during terminal operations."

Li Jingang said bluntly, "If you know what's going on, why are you still coming to the Security Department? You're too small for this job."

Han Hui smiled and said, "I don't like sitting in the office. It's so boring. The Security Department is pretty good."

Li Jingang suppressed his irritation and said, "Miss, the people who make a living at the dock are all rough guys. They will fight if they disagree with you. If they beat you up or make you disabled, it will be a lifelong problem. Miss, you should go back quickly and ask your family to find a way to get you an office job!"

Han Hui wasn't angry. Compared to Li Jingang's massive build, she did look quite weak. "So far, others have been on their knees begging for mercy, but no one has been able to hurt me in the slightest. If you don't believe me, feel free to find someone to spar with me."

Although she didn't know the name of the person in front of her, judging from his behavior, he should be a small leader.

Li Jingang actually called down two of his men: "Wang Hai, Zhang Ziqiang, this girl says she has never been defeated. Who of you is willing to fight her for a few moves?"

Looking at the short and frail Han Hui, neither of them was willing to take action: "Little girl, this is not the place for you to play house, go back quickly!"

Han Hui said, "You two come together. As long as you win, I'll go back."

Li Jingang became interested: "Wang Hai, Zhang Ziqiang, both of you come together."

Although they felt that they had lost points, they could not refuse the boss's order, so the two of them rushed towards Han Hui, one in front and one behind.

Han Hui kicked Wang Hai who was rushing towards her with a flying kick. The force was so great that he flew backwards. Then she suddenly spun around and swept across with one leg. Zhang Ziqiang was unable to dodge and fell heavily to the ground.

Wang Hai was so dizzy from the fall that he saw stars in front of his eyes; Zhang Ziqiang was fine, but seeing Han Hu was so fierce, he didn't dare to fight anymore.

Han Hui nodded with satisfaction, thinking that all the training these days was worth it.

Li Jingang's attitude immediately changed: "Miss Han, I wonder which school or sect you are from?"

Han Hui wasn't the fool to claim she had no sect or school, so she vaguely replied, "My senior brother warned us not to mention our master's name outside of public view." Li Jingang didn't press the issue further. "Zhang Ziqiang, take Xiao Han to the Personnel Department to complete the employment procedures, and then ask the logistics staff for the dormitory key."

After leaving the office, Han Hui asked, "Brother Zhang, do we really have to live in the dormitory?"

Zhang Ziqiang didn't give Han Hui a cold shoulder. Instead, he politely explained the port's rules to her. The safety department was divided into six groups, each with six people, working two shifts, rotating monthly. On the night shift, they were required to live at the port.

Zhang Ziqiang said, "We are Group 3, and we are working the day shift this month. The dormitory has been allocated to you, and you can live there anytime."

"You just said there are six people in a group. Besides the team leader, you, and Wang Hai, where are the other two people?"

After talking with Zhang Ziqiang, I not only learned that the other two people were named Huang Yong and Cai Fengshou, but also that the team leader was named Li Jingang, who was a lay disciple of Shaolin.

Han Hui feigned amazement and said, "The team leader is actually from Shaolin, isn't that amazing?"

Zhang Ziqiang gave a thumbs-up and said, "At the dock, this is our boss, and our section chiefs are all polite to him."

After saying that, he added, "Wang Hai and I rely on brute force, but the boss practices Shaolin's Luohan Fist and staff techniques. If you were to fight the boss today, you would undoubtedly lose."

Han Hui was itching to find an opportunity to try it out with Li Jingang.

Zhang Ziqiang took her to the personnel department to complete the entry procedures, and then took her to the logistics department to get her keys, work clothes, and toiletries.

Han Hui was delighted to find herself in a private room. She had too many secrets, and with the added bonus of training in a simulator, it wasn't suitable for her to live with anyone.

Zhang Ziqiang was waiting downstairs at the girls' dormitory. He was very pleased to see Han Hui come out in less than ten minutes. "We work at the docks, and the wages are high, and the food and accommodation are very good. I don't know how many people are eyeing this vacant spot in our group. The door to the team leader's house has been almost broken down these days."

Han Hui glanced at him and said, "My aunt originally wanted me to work as a clerk in the office, but I couldn't stand the constraints, so she changed me to the security department."

Zhang Ziqiang looked at her like she was a monster: "Sitting in an office is comfortable and the pay is good, why don't you go?"

Han Hui wanted to say that what may be honey to someone may be poison to you, but she thought he might not understand. "I can't sit in the office all day."

As they approached the Security Department's office building, Zhang Ziqiang suddenly realized, "Xiao Han, can you read?"

Han Hui nodded and said "hmm".

Li Jingang was very happy to hear Han Hui recognize the words, "Xiao Han, can you count?"

Han Hui hummed and said, "I studied in a private school for five years, so simple writing and calculations are no problem for me."

Li Jingang was overjoyed. He took out a stack of lists from the cabinet and said, "Then sort these out."

This development made Han Hui feel a bit amused and confused. In fact, the fundamental problem was that Han Hui didn't know the value of being able to write and calculate in this era.

Han Hui said, "Team Leader, I'm officially starting tomorrow. My mother is waiting for me at home, so I have to go back and tell her."

Li Jingang put down the order and said, "Okay, go back and come to work at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

"it is good."
