Chapter 1203 Charter a cruise ship to Antarctica

It didn't take long for the previous staff to come down from the upper floor, accompanied by a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, dressed in a neat suit, white shirt, blue tie, and shiny leather shoes under his feet.

"Sir, this is Garcia, the general manager of our travel agency. The staff came to Li Dong to introduce him to the middle-aged man behind him.

"Hello sir. Garcia took the initiative to stretch out his hand, and then introduced himself with a smile, "I'm Garcia, the general manager here, I heard that you want to charter a boat to travel to the Huaxia Research Station in Antarctica?"

"Yes. Li Dong nodded, this is a smart person, and he knows from the staff's report that his destination is the scientific research station.

Since he wanted to use the other party's ships and people, Li Dong naturally had no need to hide anything.

"Sir, can you tell us the purpose of your visit to the research station?" Garcia asked, "Please don't get me wrong, I personally don't want to inquire about your privacy, but passengers on the tourist ship are forbidden to land, let alone enter the research station." ”

This is not only for the safety of passengers, but also for the safety of the research station.

"I'm a doctor, and I'm going to see people at the research station and deliver medicine. Li Dong said, "You don't need to take me to the scientific research station, just dock the boat near the scientific research station, I will go alone, you don't need to accompany me, you just need to wait for me in place for a few days, it's as simple as that, you don't need to do anything else." ”

"Treat the disease, send medicine?" Garcia looked at Li Dong suspiciously, the scientific research station is generally equipped with a doctor, and will conduct regular physical examinations, as long as the disease is found and is not suitable for working in the scientific research station, then the person will be sent out of the scientific research station immediately.

Besides, the state unit should be responsible for such a thing as treating the disease and delivering medicine, and then the unit will organize a ship to go to the scientific research station, how can they find these travel agencies?

Li Dong was a little impatient by the other party, "Can you go, or can't go, give an answer, your travel agency can't do it, I'll go find other travel agencies, don't waste my time here." ”

has just been regarded as a liar, Li Dong is very disgusted with the feeling of being suspected of being a bad person.

Lao Tzu has money, if you don't go, someone will go, if you don't go, he will buy a boat by himself, and he can't believe that he can't go to Antarctica.

No one could stop him.

Even if it's swimming past.

"Sir, you are mistaken. Garcia hurriedly said, then took out his mobile phone, pressed a number on it, then pressed a series of '0', and finally displayed the screen in front of Li Dong, "Sir, you need these fees in total, can you accept it?"

Li Dong glanced at it, "No problem." ”

"The environment in Antarctica is very harsh and dangerous, so our ship will only stay there for two days, so if you have anything, try to do it in two days, and then for every day that goes over, you'll be compensated by an extra half a million dollars, right?" asked Garcia.

"No problem. Li Dong said, this little money is not worth mentioning to him, besides, he makes so much money, isn't it just to make it more convenient when doing tasks?

"You also need to pay the full amount of the cost of this trip before the trip, so that we can arrange the next voyage and replenish the supplies. ”

"Yes. Li Dong didn't hesitate.

Scammed?

He had never been worried, not because of how much he trusted the person in front of him, but because if someone dared to lie to him, he would make the other party pay tenfold and hundredfold.

Garcia obviously didn't expect Li Dong to agree so happily, just now he thought that the other party was just talking, but when the charter money arrived in the account, he immediately felt that the other party was not an ordinary person, and millions of dollars to stay in Antarctica for two days could not be paid by anyone.

"Sir, when are you going to leave?" Garcia asked politely, the power of money is infinite, as long as the money is in place, everything is easy to say, including attitude.

"When will you be able to leave at the earliest?"

"Tomorrow!"

"Then tomorrow. ”

"Yes sir. ”

Li Dong left the travel agency, followed the map to a commercial street, and began to replenish supplies.

This time I went to Antarctica, what would happen during the period, no one knows, he had to guard against a tragedy like the Titanic, so the hovercraft became an indispensable thing, and there were some mountaineering equipment, such as safety ropes, ice axes and the like.

In addition, what he ate and drank was also hoarded for a year, not that he couldn't stock up more, but that many things had a shelf life of only one year.

He also bought some warm things, such as down jackets, warm boots, etc., which he could withstand in the winter in Asia and the winter in Oceania, but it was only a dozen degrees at most, but it was only minus fifty or sixty degrees...... Li Dong is not sure if his shirt and coat can withstand it, so it is better to prepare more hands, and there will be nothing wrong with being careful.

What's more, even if it's a disguise, you have to wear a down jacket or something, otherwise he just goes to the South Pole like this, and he won't be regarded as a monster?

Because of the uncertainty of the future, Li Dong ate a few big meals in the evening, and the reason why it was a few meals was because he ate too much in a restaurant, and he was easy to be regarded as a monster, and he ate seven or eight restaurants, so he was satisfied with finding a hotel to live in.

The next day, the sky was clear, Li Dong came to the travel agency early in the morning, Garcia had already arrived, and drove Li Dong to a nearby port.

"Sir, this is the ship you're going on to the South Pole, the Weatherlight. Arriving at the port, Garcia pointed to a ship docked there and said to Li Dong.

Yes?

Li Dong was stunned when he saw it, this ship ...... Bigger than he thought it would be, and a lot bigger.

I thought it was a yacht, but looking at the length of more than 100 meters, it is completely out of the category of yachts, and it should be called a cruise ship.

It feels like chartering a car, thinking it's a bus, but a train comes.

"Sir, the Weatherlight has a displacement of 10,000 tons, a speed of 16 knots, a maximum capacity of 200 passengers, in addition to numerous leisure and entertainment facilities, there is also an uninterrupted Wi-Fi signal, and it is equipped with a balance wing, which can reduce the possibility of seasickness......"

Li Dong nodded while listening, and at the same time once again sighed in his heart that it is good to have money, and you can go to Antarctica by chartering a cruise ship.

At this time, a gray-haired old man in a white uniform walked over, but he was not very old, only fifty or sixty years old.

"Sir, he's Captain Peron, the Weatherlight, and the person in charge of the trip. "He has more than a dozen Antarctic voyages, so he can be said to have a lot of experience, and you just have to tell him where you want to go." ”

When sailing at sea, especially on long voyages, a good captain is crucial, and he can even decide the life and death of a boatload of people.

"Hello, Mr. Li. Captain PerΓ³n said that for him, it was much easier to be alone than a boatload of tourists.

"Captain Peron, this trip to the South Pole is all up to you. Li Dong said, "I wish us a happy voyage." ”
