Chapter five hundred and eighty-eight fighting the autumn wind(1/2)
On October 30, a northwest wind blew from the sea.
At 11:00 a.m., Xu Dong was still sleeping soundly. The passenger ship officially set sail at around 3:00 p.m. yesterday. The whole journey took about two days.
In other words, we will not arrive in Hong Kong tomorrow afternoon.
"Dongdongdongdong...Director, I've had lunch."
Gu Haiyuan knocked on the door.
Xu Dong rubbed his eyes, grabbed the cell phone at the head of the bed and found that it was already noon.
"You go first, I'll come soon."
Life on the boat was boring. Last night, the group played cards until after 3 o'clock in the morning. As a result, they slept until noon and missed breakfast.
After washing up, Xu Dong went straight to the restaurant.
The passenger ship they were riding was modified from a large freighter, with a displacement of more than 100,000 tons. The passengers on the ship were basically all power system personnel.
In addition, the ship warehouse is also loaded with hundreds of power generators, various electromechanical equipment, parts, engineering vehicles, and related living supplies.
Including a large amount of materials purchased by Xu Dong before.
"Director Xu, here."
"Where are we now?"
Xu Dong casually found a seat and sat down.
Section Chief Session immediately reported: "I just asked the captain that the passenger ship was crossing the Danluo Strait and could enter the Nisang Sea in the afternoon."
"It's quite fast!"
Xu Dong nodded with a smile.
"No, no, no," Ren Li interrupted, "I just heard from the crew that the superiors have urged them several times. Now the passenger ship is advancing at full speed, and maybe it will arrive tomorrow morning."
Xu Dong frowned and asked softly: "Is there any other news?"
"Yes, I'm just about to report to you!"
Section Chief Sei rushed to say.
"Good news, or bad news?"
"It should be considered bad news!" Section Chief Xi paused for a moment, and then said helplessly, "The ship we are on has been requisitioned."
"What does it mean? Didn't this ship be shipped out by the head office?"
Xu Dong was shocked. He didn't want to go ashore.
In case of no rush to rescue, he can't escape even if he wants to.
"There are too many refugees in Nisang, and there are not enough ships. The head office has no choice but to obey the orders of superiors."
"Which port is the passenger ship going to dock?"
Xu Dong asked quickly.
"Go to Kamika Port, where can you dock a 100,000-ton ship near Edo."
Due to the rise of sea levels, the entire Edo Bay has become land and almost all excellent ports have been lost.
As for Xingang, there is no time to build it.
After all, sea levels are falling every moment.
No one knows when the end will be.
"How far is Shenqi Port from the Toyo Nuclear Power Plant?"
“About sixty kilometers.”
Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief. Although sixty kilometers were not far away, they were not very close. Even if an accident occurred, it should not be affected so quickly.
"How did the head office arrange us?"
Now that things have come to this point, Xu Dong has no good idea, so he can only take one step at a time.
"The head office means that we will set up the logistics base directly in Shenqi Port, and there is a thermal power station next to the port.
According to the latest order from the command center, we have two main tasks, one is to support the Dongyang Nuclear Power Plant, and the other is to restore power supply to the power plant as soon as possible."
An engineer in the team helped answer.
Xu Dong nodded, it would be fine to stay in the port.
Since Kamisu Port is the only big port around Edo, it is definitely indispensable for ships to travel. When it really comes to that point, it is convenient to run away.
As we chatted, lunch began.
Everyone started queuing up to get food. The capital support team was too powerful and had extremely sufficient logistics support. In addition to the food normally provided by the canteen, the team members also had extra meals.
I purchased more than 40 tons of canned meat before. If I divided it according to the number of people, everyone could get about 100, which is enough for three months to eat.
So from the beginning, Xu Dong never thought about saving. After getting on the boat, he ordered Section Chief Xi to bring out a hundred boxes of canned meat from the warehouse.
Everyone sent two cans.
One a day, and you can eat it until you get off the boat.
This move quickly made him win over the hearts of the people.
...
After dinner, Xu Dong returned to the room worriedly. Before he could lie down again, Captain Wang of the Liaozhou Support Team and Captain Liang of the Yizhou Support Team took the initiative to come to the door.
"Please come in, please come in..."
"Captain Xu, you took the liberty to disturb him."
Xu Dong waved his hand: "Don't bother, I'm idle anyway, I'm idle anyway. What do you two want to drink? Green tea or coffee?"
"Just boiled water."
Captain Liang hurriedly refused.
Whether it is green tea or coffee, it is considered a luxury in Daxia. He is just a small section chief and cannot afford it at all.
"Then let's go green tea, the new tea I just picked this year."
Xu Dong smiled and unscrewed the tea can.
After a while, three cups of steaming tea were added to the table.
"Captain Xu, you've made a fortune."
Captain Wang said politely.
Xu Dong made a gesture of invitation: "Don't be polite, two, how about trying it?"
The two of them took a sip of tea and quickly said yes.
"Captain Xu, I have heard that there is a powerful man in our power system with great power. Now I have finally got the honor to see you."
"Just, what kind of powerful man am I?
Xu Dong said modestly.
Captain Liang flattered: "Why doesn't it count? The canned meat you gave us yesterday is a good thing, and everyone is reluctant to eat it."
When the cans were distributed yesterday, Xu Dong also gave two boxes to the two support teams on the same boat, expressing his feelings.
After all, it is a brother unit and it is not delicious to eat alone.
Don't think it's too little!
Compared with the Capital Support Team, the other two teams have less than 100 people in total, so it is definitely enough to have a meal.
"Why keep it? I'll send some more over again."
Xu Dong politely made a move.
He probably guessed what the two of them were going to do.
"How can I be so embarrassed? I can't do it!"
Captain Liang waved his hand quickly.
"It's okay, just a few boxes of canned food, we can still give it."
Everyone came to the door, but Xu Dong could not say anything at all, just pretending to be a loss of money and avoid disaster.
Anyway, the voyage is only one day left, how much can I eat?
Captain Wang saw that the time was ripe, and immediately tentatively said:
"Captain Xu, as the saying goes, it is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. You have a wide connection. Can you help us purchase a batch of canned food? The price is easy to discuss."
"Sorry, I also asked someone to purchase it. The other party no longer has any inventory, so I'm afraid I can't help..."
"Captain Xu, please help. We don't want much, one hundred boxes are enough for each family."
Captain Wang begged.
