Chapter 260: Vice Captain Song Huilin
Suddenly throwing that pirate into the sea invisibly disrupted Lin Bei's rhythm, and now that there is no "foreign aid", he and Shen Chao had to quickly find a way to grope and try their best to drive the boat by themselves.
Fortunately, the basic principles of mechanical driving are almost the same, and Shen Chao's previous work is related to hardware equipment.
Lin Bei also has experience in driving a tractor and a car, and has also been a soldier and has learned a lot of mechanical knowledge, so the two men tinkered with it for a while, and they really found some rules.
Shen Chao squatted on the ground and fiddled with various equipment for a while, wiped the sweat from his forehead, got up and said to Lin Bei: "Captain, the most troublesome problem now is that there is no map and no navigation equipment, so I don't know where to drive." We have limited fuel, you see, why don't we stop the engine, let the boat float for a while, and then start it when we find the navigation tool? ”
Murphy next to him nodded and agreed: "I think Shen Chao's proposal is very reasonable, on the vast sea, we don't have anything now, it's too risky to drive like this." ”
The ship was rudimentary, and the equipment on it was crude, so it didn't look like it was preparing for an ocean voyage, but it was probably just a simple ship used by the pirates to patrol the perimeter.
Although it is rare to be able to snatch such a ship, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to drive such a ship back to China based on the operation of the naked eye.
Thinking of this, Lin Bei also agreed: "Okay, let's stop the engine first." Anyway, it should be out of the range of those pirates by now, so let's drift with the wind and waves for a while, and let's rest together for a while. ”
Hearing that he could rest, Chu Yaxuan immediately smiled and clapped his hands and said, "Okay, okay, Brother Lin, I'm hungry, it's so thrilling today, it's time to treat yourself to something delicious!" ”
"You know how to eat!"
Murphy reluctantly knocked Chu Yaxuan's forehead and said with a smile: "I am so busy with this matter every day for food, I think who dares to marry you in the future, won't you be poor by you!" ”
"Hmph, I can make my own money to support myself!"
Chu Yaxuan pursed his mouth, and was about to have a good fight with Murphy, when suddenly Chen Nuolan also walked into the driver's compartment and said to everyone: "I found a few lighters, and some gasoline and other things, and there are kitchens and toilets on this ship, what are we going to eat at noon, I'll cook!" ”
"Hooray! Finally able to eat fragrant food again, Sister Nuolan and I are the most heartfelt! ”
Chu Yaxuan smiled and rushed over to hug Chen Nuolan, shouting, "Let's go, I'll go to the kitchen with you to cook, I'm so hungry!" ”
Seeing the two women walking away with a smile holding hands, Lin Bei couldn't help but shake his head and smiled: "This mascot is too easy to deceive, I see, a box of luncheon meat can completely deceive her!" ”
After a few words of laughter, several people were busy in the cockpit for a while, but they still couldn't find the navigation tools, so they had to go back to the deck first, thinking about whether they could judge the current position through the angle of the sun.
As a result, when they walked to the boat, they found that Song Huilin and Zhao Yingying had poked a hole in the deck with a knife, and then inserted a wooden strip into the hole to make a simple sundial prototype.
Seeing Lin Bei and them coming up, Song Huilin greeted with a smile: "Captain Lin, the two of us don't know how to help, occasionally I think of some geographical knowledge I have learned before, so I try to make a sundial first, can you see if it is useful?" ”
Lin Bei glanced down, and saw that although the thing was made simply, the angle at which the two wooden strips were inserted in a row was still very reasonable, at least now at a glance, he could almost understand that the time was one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was really well done.
So Lin Bei nodded and smiled: "It's hard work, this is really useful, it can help us record the time." I'll look into it later and see how I can make a compass. ”
After working for a long time, the effect is not bad, it can really help, Song Huilin hurriedly smiled: "As long as it is useful, if there is anything that needs us, Captain Lin, you can arrange it." ”
Lin Bei smiled, and after exchanging a look with Murphy, he suddenly spoke: "Sister Song, I have something I want to tell you. Although we didn't spend much time together on the island before, I have always admired your ability and character, so I thought about it just now, and I want to arrange you to be the vice captain, and then arrange Shen Chao and Chen Nuolan on our side, what do you think? ”
Song Huilin's whole person was suddenly stunned, she never thought that Lin Bei not only saved their lives, but now she even wanted her to be the vice captain, which... What's going on?
However, Zhao Yingying had already understood in an instant, and seeing that Song Huilin didn't know how to speak, she hurriedly helped her agree: "Thank you Captain Lin for believing in us Sister Song so much, I must listen to Sister Song's words well, and I will definitely listen to your orders in everything!" ”
In fact, Lin Bei's arrangement is naturally based on ulterior motives. Don't look at the fact that there are not many people on this boat, but now they are divided into at least three forces, not to mention their original five-person team, they are already a family member who has been twisted into a rope, but Song Huilin and Zhao Yingying also have a deep relationship, and they are also smart people.
As for the third force, it is the maverick Du Zilin. Don't look at her weakness, she is the only one by herself, but her current mood swings are the most complicated, and she is the biggest unstable factor on the ship.
Therefore, if Lin Bei does not mix the crowd together as much as possible, but let everyone continue to work separately like this, I am afraid that it will not be long before the contradictions on the ship will become more and more intensified.
And the most important point is that they are now adrift on the sea to survive, not clocking in and out of the company.
When you meet a hated colleague at work, it's a big deal to be out of sight after work, but now everyone is in the same boat, if you don't press down the contradiction as soon as possible, and when it gets big in the future, something terrible will happen, and it will be too late to redeem it.
So Lin Bei had to quickly redistribute the crowd and divide Shen Chao into the past, so that he could continue to go to Song Huilin's side to be a peacemaker, and Chen Nuolan was also divided because he knew that Chen Nuolan was delicate and smart, and he could appease Song Huilin and Zhao Yingying from the inside.
In fact, they are all in the same boat, and the so-called grouping is just a situation, and Song Huilin naturally understands Lin Bei's intentions.
At this time, she almost figured it all out, so she smiled sincerely: "Captain Lin, thank you for your trust in me!" No matter what you do, I'll listen to you! ”
