Chapter 219: The Picture is Poor

In the wheelhouse, the captain and first mate were chatting, and thanks to the intelligent driving technology applied on the new high-speed freighter, only one operator but the two of them was staring at the radar screen. The ship itself is cruising automatically with a computer-programmed route map.

The two were also chatting about the voyage.

In the past, cargo ships would dock in Hawaii to replenish fresh water and fuel. And they, the crew, will go ashore, find the familiar bars and dancers, relax for two days, and then set sail.

And this time, the cargo load of the freighter is very small, and there is only one customer. Therefore, the boss ordered that after San Francisco was fully replenished with fuel and supplies, it would not dock in Hawaii and go directly to the port of Haijin.

The thought of being at sea for so long, without a bar and a woman, was so hard to think that the captain and first mate complained to their boss.

I thought that the boss would be angry about something, but I didn't expect that after listening to their complaints, the boss calmly threw out a sentence This voyage, each person's salary will be increased by 20%, after tax.

The complaints are completely gone, and compared to the green Franklin, two less days of rest is nothing. Seafarers will not have trouble with money, and they work hard to drift on the sea, isn't it just to earn more money!

It's just that in the past few days, the young people who were pressing the goods in the original bilge, I don't know why, reversed the previous silence and moved around the ship. There are even some people who will often appear near the wheelhouse, take out all kinds of small gifts, and deliberately make friends with the seafarers in the wheelhouse. From the demeanor and the content of the conversation, it can be seen that these people obviously have experience in driving ships.

The captain and first mate sensed that something was wrong and developed some vigilance.

However, when I think about this company then, I feel a little unfounded.

Micro-hardware and software are in full swing in Sam's Country. The boss Zhang Yi is a super-rich man with unparalleled personal charm, not to mention the value of his own freighter, even if he sends another 10 freighters, the other party may not be eye-catching.

While they were chatting nonsense, there was a knock on the wheelhouse door, and the first mate and the captain saw the second senior brother standing outside the door and a follower with a silver-gray lockbox through the tempered glass, and the two looked at each other, but did not see the answer in each other's eyes.

So I opened the door and said hello to the customer representative with whom I had met him. The second senior brother's English level is really not very good, so the follower takes on the role of translator.

The second senior brother glanced around the wheelhouse, looked at the seafarers on duty in front of the radar, and signaled slightly, and the captain immediately understood that it seemed that the other party had something to discuss, and he had to keep it secret.

He pouted at the first mate, and the other man nodded in understanding.

"Mr. Hank, let's go to the restaurant for a couple of drinks! We're both here, don't worry, nothing will go wrong!"

"Okay, Chief, I just want to take a break!"

Then, Hank, the seaman, opened the door and walked out.

The second senior brother pointed to the lockbox, and the attendant immediately put it away

and opened, and a whole box of green knives was displayed in front of the two of them.

When the captain and first mate saw this, their breathing immediately became short, and their eyes became blood-red. This is a whole box of 100 yuan worth of American knives, how can it be hundreds of thousands of dollars!

The second senior brother watched the performance of the two of them, and he took a long time.

After a few minutes, the expressions of the two slowly calmed down.

"I don't know what you mean?" asked the captain cautiously.

The so-called taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others, whether it is the Celestial Empire or Sam Country, the principle is the same.

But the two thought about it, what could they do that was worth such a big price for each other!

Money is easy to take, but is it hot?

"The two of them also know that the cargo on the ship is a batch of computer materials, and our company is ready to receive it in Haijin, but the speed of our freighter is too slow, and the boss called and said that he was very unhappy. So what!"

"Ahh It's not worth it to pay such a big price just to make the ship sail a little faster!

You must know that the freight of this freighter voyage is estimated to be less than the money in this safe.

Seeing the two of them look incredulous.

The second senior brother had no choice but to shrug his shoulders and say, "You also know that our boss is not very old, he is very anxious, he doesn't care much about money, but he cares very much about efficiency!"

Hearing the interpreter's explanation, the two showed a look of sudden realization.

As we all know, Zhang Yi, the boss of micro-hardware software, is only in his 20s, and he has made such great achievements, and it is inevitable that he will be young and vigorous.

So, it's understandable that young people make such decisions!

Zhang Yi, who was thousands of miles away, sneezed inexplicably, touched his nose, and muttered, "Yes, I have such a good body, how can I catch a cold, who must be thinking about me again!"

Soon after, the captain and first mate summoned all the crew to the dining room and announced that the customer was in a hurry to pick up the goods and was willing to pay a large price, asking them to get the goods as soon as possible.

For seafarers who have been adrift at sea for a long time, they will come into contact with a variety of customers, and they have seen all kinds of requirements, and it is also very common for such things as speeding up cargo ships.

It's just that after the captain finished speaking, he asked the chief mate to open the lockbox and distribute it to each seaman, 10,000 US dollars per person.

It's a good idea that this kind of money came unexpectedly, but let's have more such accidents!

You must know that seafarers who have been floating at sea for a month may not be able to earn 10,000 US dollars, and the freighter that has already arrived at the Sea of Plaster is only a two-day voyage from Haijin.

In a word, this customer is really rich, and if he can meet several such customers a year, he will die of unhappiness.

The effect of money was immediately reflected, and the freighter reversed the previous slow cruising state

The noise of the motive suddenly increased, and the ship sped away towards the port of Haijin at the maximum speed of the freighter like a wild horse that had escaped the leash.

"At this rate, how long will it take to get to Haijin. The second senior brother looked at the blue sea and asked softly.

"If you sail at this speed, you should be able to arrive a day earlier!" replied a companion with a test instrument in the back, looking at it.

"We have reached our limit, and the rest is to do our best, depending on the will of God!"

After a long delay, nearly two weeks, the painstaking intelligence briefing was finally on the president's desk.

As a rule, the president's security adviser, who came from the intelligence system, skimmed through the briefing first.

When he saw the first line, his brow furrowed, and after a quick glance at the information below, he immediately handed the information to the president and pointed to the first line.

It was written that the micro-hardware software was purchased from the supercomputer of Supermicro Semiconductor, and it had been sent to the Haijin Port of the Celestial Empire via San Francisco.
