My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 588 "Fighting the Autumn Wind"

On October 10, a northwesterly wind blew out to sea.

At eleven o'clock in the morning, Xu Dong was still sound asleep. The passenger ship officially set sail at three o'clock in the afternoon yesterday, and the whole journey would take about two days.

In other words, it will arrive at Hong Kong tomorrow afternoon.

"Boom boom boom...Director, it's time for lunch."

Gu Haiyuan knocked on the door.

Xu Dong rubbed his eyes, grabbed the mobile phone next to the bed and looked at it, only to find that it was already noon.

"You go first, I will come right away."

Life on the boat was very boring. Last night, a group of people played cards until after three in the morning, but they slept until noon and missed breakfast.

After washing up, Xu Dong went directly to the restaurant.

The passenger ship they took was refitted from a large freighter, with a displacement of more than [-] tons, and the passengers on board were basically personnel from the electrical system.

In addition, hundreds of generator cars, various electromechanical equipment, spare parts, engineering vehicles, and related living supplies are also loaded in the ship's warehouse.

Including a large number of materials purchased by Xu Dong before.

"Director Xu, this way."

"Where are we now?"

Xu Dong randomly found a seat and sat down.

Section Chief Xi immediately reported: "I just asked the captain, the passenger ship is passing through the Tamna Strait, and will be able to enter the Nisan Sea area in the afternoon."

"It's pretty fast!"

Xu Dong smiled and nodded.

"It can't be fast." Ren Li interjected, "I just heard from the crew that the superiors have urged them several times, and now the passenger ship is advancing at full speed, 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!"

Chief Xi hurriedly said.

"Good news or bad news?"

"It should be considered bad news!" Chief Xi paused for a moment, then said helplessly, "The ship we're on has been requisitioned."

"What do you mean? Isn't this ship chartered by the head office?"

Xu Dong was taken aback, he didn't want to go ashore.

If the rescue is not urgent, he can't even run away.

"There are too many refugees in Nisang, and there are simply not enough ships. The head office has no choice but to obey the orders of the superiors."

"Which port is the passenger ship going to call at?"

Xu Dong hurriedly asked.

"Go to Kamisu Port, the only place near Edo where [-]-ton ships can dock."

Due to the drop in sea level, the entire Edo Bay has become land, and almost all good ports have been lost.

As for the new port, it was too late to build it.

After all, sea levels are dropping all the time.

No one knows when it will end.

"How far is Kamisu Port from Toyo Nuclear Power Plant?"

"About sixty kilometers."

Xu Dong heaved a sigh of relief. Although sixty kilometers is not far, it is not very close. Even if there is an accident, it should not be affected so quickly.

"How did the head office arrange us?"

Now that the matter has come to this point, Xu Dong has nothing to do, he can only take one step at a time.

"What the head office means is, let's set up the logistics base directly in Kamisu Port, and there is a thermal power station next to the port.

According to the latest order from the headquarters, we have two main tasks, one is to support the Toyo Nuclear Power Plant, and the other is to restore power to the power plant as soon as possible. "

An engineer on the team helped answer.

Xu Dong nodded, it's fine to stay at the port.

Since Kamisu Port is the only big port around Edo, there must be a lot of ships coming and going, and it is really convenient to travel when it gets to that point.

Chatting and chatting, lunch started.

Everyone started queuing up for meals. On the side of the Capital Support Team, because Captain Xu was so awesome, the logistics support was exceptionally adequate. In addition to the normal meals provided by the cafeteria, the team members also had extra meals.

A total of more than 40 tons of canned meat was purchased before. If divided according to the head, each person can get about a hundred, which is enough to feed for three months.

So from the very beginning, Xu Dong never thought about saving money. For the first meal after boarding the ship, he ordered Section Chief Xi to bring out [-] boxes of canned meat from the warehouse.

Everyone sent two cans.

One a day, just enough to eat until disembarkation.

This move made him quickly gather people's hearts.

……

After the meal, 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 came to the door on their own initiative.

"Come in, come in..."

"Captain Xu, take the liberty of interrupting me."

Xu Dong waved his hand: "Don't bother, I'm idle anyway, what do you two want to drink? Green tea or coffee?"

"Boiled water will do."

Captain Liang quickly evaded.

Whether green tea or coffee, they are considered luxuries in Daxia. He himself is just a small section chief, and he can't afford to spend them at ordinary times.

"Then green tea, the new tea just picked this year."

Xu Dong smiled and unscrewed the tea pot.

After a while, there were three steaming cups of tea on the table.

"Captain Xu, I've made you spend money."

Captain Wang said politely.

Xu Dong made a gesture of invitation: "You two are welcome, how about a taste?"

The two took a sip of tea and quickly agreed.

"Captain Xu, I have long heard that there is a powerful man in our power system with great powers, and now I am finally lucky enough to meet you in person."

"Just kidding, what kind of a capable person am I?"

Xu Dong said modestly.

Captain Liang boasted: "Why don't you count it? The canned meat you gave us yesterday is a good thing, and everyone is reluctant to eat it."

When distributing the cans yesterday, Xu Dong also sent two boxes to each of the two support teams on the same ship as a token of his appreciation.

After all, it is a brother unit, so it is not good to eat alone.

Don't be too little!
Compared with the capital support team, the other two teams combined have less than 100 people, so a makeshift meal is definitely enough.

"Why keep it? I'll ask someone to send some back later."

Xu Dong said politely.

He probably guessed the purpose of the two of them.

"Why is this so embarrassing? No way!"

Captain Liang quickly waved his hand.

"It's okay, it's just a few boxes of canned food, we can still afford it."

Everyone came to the door, and Xu Dong couldn't say that he didn't have anything, just treat it as a waste of money and avoid disaster.

Anyway, there is only one day left on the voyage, how much can I eat?
Seeing that the time was ripe, Captain Wang immediately probed and said:

"Captain Xu, as the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. You have a lot of contacts here. Can you help us buy a batch of canned food? The price is negotiable."

"Sorry, I also entrusted someone to purchase, and the other party has no stock, I'm afraid I can't help..."

"Captain Xu, please help, we don't need much, one hundred boxes for a family is enough."

Captain Wang begged.

"Captain Xu, please help us. The canned meat on your side puts a lot of pressure on Captain Wang and me. If this continues, the people below will all rebel."

Captain Liang followed suit.

Xu Dong was unmoved: "If I can think of a way before I leave, I will be in Nisang soon, where do you want me to get canned food for you?"

"You have stock here, do you have more?"

"Okay, I'll make up a hundred boxes for you at most, and you can divide it yourself when you go back. If there are too many boxes, there really isn't any."

Xu Dong simply said.

The two of them are quite knowledgeable, and they accept it when they see each other.

"Captain Xu, thank you so much, what is the price?"

"How about a box of two thousand?"

There is no shortage of money in the power system, so Xu Dong deliberately doubled the price.

"no problem."

Captain Liang immediately agreed.

The two immediately took out their mobile phones, and it seemed that they had premeditated.

"Don't transfer the money to me." Xu Dong waved his hand, "Call it directly to our company account, and I will let the old man hand it over to you later."

These cans were purchased in the name of the company.

It had nothing to do with him, and besides, he was resigning soon, so he didn't want to get into trouble.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
