Chapter 579: The Conceited Inoue
Although the impact of the typhoon was already very obvious, and the Ice Dragon swayed under the continuous lapping of the huge waves, Xiao Ping was completely unaffected. His swaying ice dragon moved freely, as if he were walking in his own room, and there was no seasickness at all.
What surprised the sailors even more was that Xiao Ping's sense of balance was stronger than that of them who were old birds begging for a living at sea. While most people need to walk with their hands on their feet, Xiao Ping can maintain perfect balance in a bumpy boat, as if he has a gyroscope in his body to keep it balanced.
In the end, even He Jindong had to sigh that some people are born to adapt to the wind and waves on the sea, and Xiao Ping is such a person. And Xiao Ping's outstanding performance has also won the respect of everyone, including the captain. Everyone no longer regards him as a burden that will only cause trouble, but treats Xiao Ping with an equal attitude.
Xiao Ping can have such a good performance, of course, thanks to his physique far beyond ordinary people. The wind and waves, which were enough to make most people seasick, did not affect him in the slightest, allowing him to earn his place on the Ice Dragon.
After three days of rage, the wind and waves finally became smaller, and calm returned to the sea. Because of his outstanding performance in the typhoon, Xiao Ping can now wander around the whole ship without anyone careging, but it makes him satisfy his curiosity.
Due to the typhoon, the Ice Dragon's itinerary was delayed for a few days. It wasn't until the sixth day after leaving Shencheng that the Ice Dragon docked at the port of Tokyo.
Sakurako, who got the news beforehand, was already waiting on the dock. The petite Sakura was dressed in a professional suit, with a professional smile on the doll's face, and bowed deeply to Xiao Ping from a distance: "Mr. Xiao." It's been a hard work!"
Xiao Ping had contact with Sakurako twice in the United States before, and each time there would be some ambiguous little situations. This time Sakurako's attitude is both formal and distant. On the contrary, Xiao Ping was a little unaccustomed to it, and there was a faint sense of loss in his heart.
However, Xiao Ping quickly adjusted his mood. Secretly remind yourself in your heart: "Isn't this exactly what I want, don't think about it!"
Thinking of this, Xiao Ping also looked away, smiled and said to Sakurako: "Miss Sakurako is too polite, and I want you to pick up the boat in person." ”
"It should. Sakurako took two steps forward, pointed to the black car behind her, and said, "Mr. Inoue, the chief appraiser of tuna in the company, is also here, he wants to see your fish for the first time, you can see ......"
Before Sakurako finished speaking, Xiao Ping understood what she meant, and immediately smiled coldly: "I understand." You don't believe me!"
Xiao Ping's words made Sakurako's face change, and she hurriedly explained to him: "Mr. Xiao, don't get me wrong, all the tuna purchased by the company must first pass Mr. Inoue's appraisal, this is just a routine procedure, it is definitely not specifically aimed at you, let alone distrusting you." ”
Xiao Ping didn't bother to tell whether this was true or false, so he just nodded lightly and said, "Okay, let that well follow me to the cold storage on the ship to have a look." ”
Seeing that Xiao Ping agreed. Sakurako hurriedly ran to the side of the car to report to Inoue, and it didn't take long for a short old man to get out of the car.
This old man is only in his early sixties at most, and he doesn't have a single hair on his head, but he looks very energetic. When he walked, he was vigorous, and soon came to Xiao Ping.
"This is the company's chief tuna appraiser, Mr. Inoue. Sakurako introduced the two of them on the side: "This is Mr. Xiao Ping, the owner of the fairy pot company. ”
"Hello!" Inoue greeted Xiao Ping in English first. After chirping and speaking Japanese, Xiao Ping didn't even understand a word.
Although Xiao Ping didn't know what Inoue was talking about. But judging from Sakurako's embarrassed expression, it is clear that what this guy said is definitely not a good thing.
Seeing that Sakurako was still hesitant to translate. Xiao Ping couldn't help but sneer: "Miss Sakurako, you can translate whatever Mr. Inoue says, I have always attached great importance to the opinions of customers. ”
"Yes!" Since Xiao Ping said so, Sakurako could only say honestly: "Mr. Inoue said that the best tuna is bluefin tuna on the east coast of the United States, followed by the Mediterranean, and Australia's farmed species is the worst. However, he had never heard of high-quality tuna produced in Chinese waters, so he ...... the tuna you sent this time. Expect little. ”
After listening to Sakurako's translation, Xiao Ping couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Damn, I know that these little Japanese will look down on people." Hmph, wait for this little old man to see his buddy's tuna, and then see what he has to say!"
Xiao Ping is very confident in his tuna, and he naturally won't be angry because of the other party's suspicion. Thinking of Inoue's surprised expression when he saw the tuna, he couldn't help but smile slightly: "Miss Sakurako, please tell Mr. Inoue that he doesn't know that the things that he doesn't know don't necessarily mean that they don't exist, and whether there are high-quality tuna in China, he will know the way in a while." ”
Sakurako really trusted Xiao Ping very much, and immediately translated Xiao Ping's words to Inoue. To Xiao Ping's surprise, Inoue actually nodded his head in agreement after hearing him, and asked Xiao Ping to take him to see the fish as soon as possible through Sakurako.
Since Inoue was anxious to be slapped in the face, Xiao Ping was also happy to meet his request and soon took him on the boat to see the fish. Sakurako, as the translator, naturally followed behind the two of them.
After a few days of sailing, Xiao Ping has become familiar with everyone on the Ice Dragon. He said hello to He Jindong, and took Inoue and Sakurako straight to the cold storage with tuna.
Speaking of which, Inoue is indeed a veteran who often goes on ships to inspect tuna, and is very familiar with the structure of refrigerated transport ships such as the Ice Dragon. After asking Xiao Ping for the number of the cold storage, the little old man took the lead, and his familiarity with the ship was far better than that of Xiao Ping, who had lived on the ship for a few days.
In fact, to be honest, Xiao Ping doesn't know much about the environment inside the ship so far, and he often gets lost in the ship. So since Inoue volunteered to lead the way, he was also happy to relax, so he simply followed leisurely.
Inoue led Xiao Ping and Sakurako through the narrow corridor, stopping in front of a steep staircase and signaling the two to climb up from here. He was anxious to know the quality of the tuna sent by Xiao Ping, so he hurried up the stairs without waiting for the two to follow.
When Xiao Ping came to the bottom of the stairs, he found that Inoue had climbed up, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "This old man is really full of energy, is he so anxious to be slapped in the face?"
But complaining and complaining, this staircase still has to be climbed. Just as Xiao Ping was about to go up the stairs, Sakurako suddenly stopped him.
"Mr. Xiao, can you let me go up first?" Sakurako smiled and requested, "This staircase is too steep, I'm afraid I'll fall down." In case I stumble, you can protect me below. ”
After all, Xiao Ping is a very pitiful person, otherwise his peach blossom luck would not be so prosperous. Since Sakurako made such a request, Xiao Ping naturally would not refuse and let her go up the stairs first.
Sakurako seemed to be very worried about her safety, and after climbing more than a dozen stairs, she didn't forget to stop and remind Xiao Ping: "Mr. Xiao, you must be close to me, in case something happens, you can protect me!"
"Zhilu said, don't worry. Xiao Ping really didn't think too much, he just thought that Sakurako was timid, so he answered casually and followed up the stairs.
However, Xiao Ping only took a few steps up, and found that things were not as simple as he imagined.
The Ice Dragon is not a luxury cruise ship, and most of the stairs on board are narrow and steep, and if the two of them climb the stairs together, the person above is equivalent to the head of the person below. If it were other sailors on Xiao Ping, naturally it wouldn't have anything to do with it. But right now, it's Sakura who is above Xiao Ping, and this problem is big.
You must know that Sakurako is wearing a professional suit, and the lower body is a skirt that is above the knee. Of course, there is no problem with this dress on the flat ground, but now that she is on top of Xiao Ping's head, Xiao Ping just inadvertently raised his head and saw the spring light under Sakura's skirt at a glance.
As a normal man, Xiao Ping naturally couldn't help but glance up a few times, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's actually a black T-BACK, does this chick wear such underwear when she goes to work?"
Although she thinks Sakurako is a bit exaggerated to dress like this, the instinct of a man makes Xiao Ping appreciate her current dress. However, after taking a few steps up, a thought came to Xiao Ping's mind: "This chick can't be intentional, right?"
Just when Xiao Ping was seriously considering this possibility, Sakurako, who was walking on it, suddenly lowered her head and smiled slightly: "Mr. Xiao, you have to take care of me, don't let me fall!"
Xiao Ping noticed that Sakurako had particularly accentuated the pronunciation of the word "look", and immediately shouted in his heart: "Damn, this chick really did it on purpose, I thought she had changed sex, it turned out to be the same!"
However, even with this thought in his heart, Xiao Ping couldn't help but raise his head and "look" at Sakura seriously, so as not to have any accidents happen to her. Sakurako obviously also knew that Xiao Ping was looking at her, her slender waist twisted more, and her round buttocks swayed even more. So much so that Xiao Ping was really worried, if this chick climbed the stairs like this, there was indeed a possibility of falling.
Fortunately, the stairs were not long, and the two of them soon reached the upper deck. In front of Inoue, Sakurako returned to her previous very professional attitude, and said to Xiao Ping seriously: "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Inoue wants you to agree that he will open the cold storage to check the tuna.
Of course, Xiao Ping would not refuse this request, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Inoue smiled arrogantly at Xiao Ping, and then pushed open the door of the cold storage.
A burst of cold air immediately poured out of the cold storage, causing the three people outside the door to involuntarily feel excited. Sakurako, who was the weakest in her body, took a few steps back to avoid the overwhelming cold.
But Inoue didn't retreat half a step, he looked at the dozen or so huge tuna in the cold storage in a daze, and involuntarily muttered: "This ...... This can't be!" (To be continued......)
