It's none of my business. I'm just a lunch box seller.

0205 Hello, Comrade!

"Huh? A submarine! Right in Boston Bay? And it's ours!"

On the morning of October 10, when Boss Cheng opened the door of the store, he saw Xiao Hei (Preston) waiting outside the door. Later, Boss Cheng knew that there was a strategic nuclear submarine "sunken" in Boston Bay, which was probably a pre-war Red Army strategic nuclear submarine.

Boss Cheng did not dare to neglect this kind of news, and immediately found Zhou Zhezhi who was staying in the apartment. Zhou Zhezhi also took it very seriously after receiving this news. After all, the people in the submarine might be comrades from more than 200 years ago, even though Zhou had guessed that the crew members in the submarine had already turned into zombies.

But comrades are not divided into men and women, old and young, and there is no need to distinguish between humans and ghosts! Otherwise, how can we slay Yama with a hundred thousand flags?

Zhou Zhezhi asked Boss Cheng to take him to Hualin City to buy outdoor supplies, intending to buy a rubber boat for emergency use. But they both seemed to have forgotten that with Hualin City's economic situation, people could not afford outdoor water sports.

Here, the most popular outdoor water sport is probably bathing in the river during the hottest summer, and one or two people drown here every year.

So, after a long walk, I ended up returning empty-handed.

But Boss Cheng is a man with his own ideas. Even though the kayak couldn't be fixed, it doesn't mean he can't keep everyone from getting wet and able to float on the water.

"You do not believe?"

Half an hour after Boss Cheng disappeared, Zhou Zhezhi saw him running back with brisk strides, carrying five large foam insulation boards that would definitely not pass the fire resistance test.

"Did you get it from the construction site?"

"Ah! Ask them for it."

"But this thing..."

"Easy to catch fire, huh?"

Zhou Zhezhi nodded.

"They told me that this stuff is used to insulate commercial concrete. I don't know if they were telling the truth, but they gave me these sheets for free when they saw I wanted them."

"You planning on floating over here in this thing?"

"if not?"

"Aren't you afraid of being crushed?"

"So I asked for 5! I can wrap them with tape and they won't break!"

Zhou Zhezhi had to admit that this was indeed a good way to deal with the emergency. But when Boss Cheng said the second half of the sentence, he no longer thought so.

"Don't worry, with your weight, you definitely can't crush such a thick foam board."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhe pointed at his nose and asked, "You want me to go?"

"What else can we do? This thing can't handle the two of us. Besides, you have an official identity, and you wouldn't let an alien like me handle this kind of thing for you, right?"

Zhou Zhe stared at Boss Cheng for a long time without being able to utter a word. Finally, after a long pause, he managed to say, "Go get a few more big ones, and we'll row over together. That way, if I fall into the water, you can pull me out."

"Find you?"

"I can't swim!" Zhou explained.

"How can you be a soldier if you can't swim?"

"Who told you that civilian positions require people who can swim?"

Well, this time it was Boss Cheng's turn to think that what Zhou Zhezhi said made sense. So Boss Cheng went out again, and soon after, he brought back more than ten larger and thicker foam boards.

This time, it was not just Boss Cheng who came back alone. Behind him were more than 30 workers chasing him with hammers and shovels.

"Don't tell me you robbed it this time!"

"You have to rob them!" Boss Cheng put down a pile of 1.2m*2.4m foam boards and laughed, "When I went to ask them for it, they were loading the foam boards into the car. It looked like they were going to run away. I asked them for it, but they said they didn't want to give it to me. I said I could pay for it, but they picked up hammers and told me to get out."

"And then you robbed it?"

"Ah! He's about to hit me, why shouldn't I grab it?"

As for Boss Cheng's values, you can't say he is not right, but he is a little distorted. Otherwise, how can a decent person start robbing someone just because they disagree with something?

However, the construction workers carrying all kinds of cold weapons looked like they were about to rush to the school in an ancient peasant uprising. Zhou Zhezhi immediately took out his intercom and said into the microphone: "Go ahead, don't let them cause trouble."

Then, a dozen UNSC soldiers armed with live ammunition rushed out from the school's iron gate and surrounded the "rebel army".

20 minutes later...

All construction sites near the Hedian Hotel were subjected to joint surprise inspections by the public security and fire departments. The fire department found that 26 contractors in 8 construction sites within the former Mining Bureau (around the hotel) were suspected of violating the Fire Protection Law by using fireproof and substandard insulation products.

However, the other seven companies were timid and mixed qualified and unqualified products. Only the company that sent people to chase Cheng's boss was more aggressive, and not even a piece of insulation material that met the fire prevention regulations was found in the construction site.

It just so happens that these eight construction sites did not have a holiday during the National Day. This is exactly why they chose not to give workers a holiday. After all, other construction sites were on holiday, there were fewer people and fewer eyes, which was just the right time to secretly use substandard fireproof materials.

The contractor who had sent people to chase Boss Cheng away was about to remove the useless materials from the site, but who would have thought that Boss Cheng was so big that he would come over early in the morning and steal the foam board secretly. Not only did he steal it once, he had to steal it a second time. What if the other party was going to report them with the foam board, then the whole project would be ruined!

Then things really went wrong.

but……

"You stole the board for the first time?"

Boss Cheng: ...

"Why don't you speak?"

"what!"

"How dare you say 'ah'? You have hundreds of millions of yuan in your account, and you go to someone's construction site to steal foam boards?"

Boss Cheng shrugged and asked Zhou: "Are the two related?"

"There's none?"

"Besides, I was planning to buy it with my own money, but they not only told me to get out, they also tried to fuck my mom. I've already upheld the bottom line of the core socialist values ​​by not making them lose their ability to work, okay!"

"So the second time, when you saw them trying to run, you just robbed them, right?"

"Yes!"

"You also seduced this person?"

"what!"

"You can do it!" Zhou Zhe gave a thumbs up, "You're good, you can even kill someone with a borrowed knife!"

But Zhou Zhezhi had to admit that it was precisely because of Boss Cheng's accidental success that he successfully discovered the major fire safety hazards in the project. Or perhaps, this is the case of "doing too much evil will eventually lead to self-destruction". It's just that they didn't run into the muzzle of a gun, but the muzzle of a wave of fire.

Since the foam boards had already been snatched, Boss Cheng not only used duct tape to tie the large foam boards together, but also stole a bundle of bamboo poles from the sealed-off construction site. He fixed the bamboo poles under the large foam boards and built a trimaran-like lateral balance board for the foam boat.

Then, Boss Cheng drove a helicopter with a simple but not crude foam boat and flew to the sea area where the "one-eyed monster" appeared.

Here, the soldiers of the Volunteer Army had arrived in advance and pointed out the direction for the two. Boss Cheng, who saw the location of the periscope, also asked Zhou Zhezhi a very heart-piercing question - why not just fly a helicopter there?

The answer given by Zhou Zhezhi was very simple and clear, because he did not know how to rappel by helicopter.

Well, helicopter rappelling, which most people think is just sliding down by holding a rope, is actually not only difficult, but also requires a lot of practice to master the skills. But even if you are skilled, there are still unlucky people who slip and fall off the helicopter.

Even every year.

Therefore, Boss Cheng and Zhou Zhezhi continued to move forward according to the original plan. The two pushed the simple foam boat into the sea. Then Boss Cheng jumped on it first, and Zhou Zhezhi jumped on it after the center of gravity of the boat stabilized. Then the two of them caught the shovel thrown from the dock, and used the shovel as a paddle, slowly rowing towards the direction of the periscope.

Soon after, the speculation was confirmed. It was indeed a nuclear submarine stranded in the bay. It was a strange-looking nuclear submarine that neither Boss Cheng nor Zhou Zhezhi had ever seen. The two men in waterproof pants tied the boat to the submarine's periscope, and then jumped onto the submarine's hull, which was only 10 centimeters above the sea.

then……

"Boom, boom, boom!"

While hammering the submarine's hull, Boss Cheng shouted at it in Chinese: "Can anyone hear me? If you can, please knock on the iron sheet."

"Hey, if you shout like that, how can the people in the submarine ..."

However, before Zhou Zhezhi finished speaking, a dull metal knocking sound came from inside the submarine. Seeing this, Boss Cheng patted Zhou Zhezhi and asked him to shout at the ventilation pipe next to the periscope.

As for the content of the shouting, it was very simple. The name of Zhou Zhezhi's department, his position and rank, and asked the members on board to allow them to enter the submarine cabin.

This time, there was no confirmation or denial from the submarine, but the submarine started the drainage machine directly, which made the submarine surface again after more than 200 years. However, before the submarine's bridge hull was completely exposed to the water, a series of "bang~ clatter" sounds of hitting the reef were heard from underwater.

Then, a zombie head wearing a boat-shaped hat emerged from the opened door of the pressure cabin.

"It's okay, it's just a slight rub, it won't break."

However, after the corpse with the boat-shaped hat finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked Boss Cheng and Zhou Zhezhi: "Hello, comrades, can you understand what I am saying?"

"Yes!" they said in unison.

"Oh, that's great! We've finally got our own people. Come on, come on! Come down with me! I think the captain is getting anxious!"

After the two followed the ship-hat ghoul into the command center of the submarine, they saw a ghoul wearing a captain's hat tidying up his appearance. After he was almost done, he asked the crew member who was holding a piece of mirror fragment for him: "How is it, is your appearance acceptable?"

The crewman holding the mirror joked, "Very handsome, Captain. If you were willing to go out, you would have already charmed the capitalists and reactionaries."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's talk serious things."

"I'm being serious. In over 200 years, I've never seen you dressed so neatly, Captain."

"Ahem!" The ghoul wearing a boat cap coughed softly and reminded in a low voice: "Captain, people are coming!"

Seeing that the other party was tidying up his military uniform, Zhou Zhezhi quickly took off his heavy and dragging waterproof pants, and then tidied up his military uniform and military cap. It was not until Boss Cheng pushed him that he walked forward with a serious look and saluted:

"Zhou Zhezhi, former Level 5 Civilian Specialist of the Special Affairs Department of the UNSC General Staff, reports to the Captain!"

"Snapped!"

The neatly dressed submarine captain also saluted immediately and said, "Zhao Weiguo, the captain of the Yangtze River Cave No. 3 Yao ship of the North Sea Fleet, the nuclear submarine force of the Chinese XXXXXX Navy!"

"Snapped!"

The ghoul wearing a ship cap saluted and said, "Wang Kangmei, Chief Engineer of the Changjiangdong Sanyao Ship of the North Sea Fleet!"

The young ghoul who had just held the mirror fragment carefully put down the last large mirror fragment on the ship that could reflect people, and then saluted and said, "Hong Guosheng, the sonar operator of the Changjiangdong No. 3 Yao ship of the North Sea Fleet."

Seeing the three ghouls who had just introduced themselves all looking at him, Boss Cheng could only return the standard military salute of the UNSC in 2537. However, the boss did not introduce the number of his unit, but told the three people: "My name is Cheng Tianyan, and I sell box lunches."

0206 The Taste of Work Injury

The surprises that the Yangtze 031 strategic nuclear submarine brought to Cheng's boss Zhou Zhezhi were far more than the captain Zhao Weiguo, the chief engineer Wang Kangmei, and the sonar operator Hong Guosheng. Not long after the two sides introduced themselves, another four people climbed up from the lower cabin of the submarine.

They are:

The first mate, Cheng Guodong, is considered half a relative of Boss Cheng.

Radar operator Zhao Dezhu, just by hearing his name you can tell that this man can handle things.

Mechanic Wang Baoxiu is a reliable ship repairman just by hearing his name.

The ship's chef, Feng Baolai, is nicknamed Feng Big Head or Soda.

Soda...

In other words, before the outbreak of the nuclear war, there was also a soda called "Hong Baolai" on the other side of the ocean.

Boss Cheng: I have drunk quite a few bottles that are about to expire, but I really want to try Hongbaolai, which has been expired for more than 200 years.

Then, Boss Cheng walked straight to Feng Baolai, shook his hand and shook it vigorously. He also said to him while shaking his hand: "It's an honor to meet you, let's go together! You don't know, my childhood dream was to be a chef in a restaurant on a warship (in the sky)!"

When Feng Baolai heard that the big man opposite him was actually his colleague, he immediately felt a sense of pride. Then, he also asked Boss Cheng: "What happened next? Did you realize your dream?"

But Boss Ke Cheng shook his head and said bluntly: "No, I was killed in the battle later."

Zhao Weiguo, Cheng Guodong, Wang Kangmei, Hong Guosheng, Zhao Dezhu, and Wang Baoxiu all fell silent. The air in the command cabin inside the submarine suddenly became quiet.

Feng Baolai stared at Boss Cheng with cloudy eyes, as if he was looking at a ghost. To be honest, if all the people on the ship had not turned into zombies, there would be nothing to be afraid of. Otherwise, Feng Baolai would be scared.

Zhou Zhezhi quickly pulled Boss Cheng behind him and introduced himself and Boss Cheng to the four people who came later. But in fact, even if Zhou Zhezhi didn't introduce him, the four of them already knew Zhou Zhezhi's identity. After all, the four of them were specially arranged by the captain to prevent Zhou Zhezhi and others from pretending to be wasteland plunderers.

So, Boss Zhou Hecheng was definitely not the first batch of "wastelanders" to board the submarine. But he was definitely the only batch of "insiders" to board the submarine after the nuclear war!

Zhou Zhezhi guessed that Captain Zhao was on guard against him at first, but he did not blame him. Instead, he understood and agreed with Captain Zhao's actions. Because this is the responsibility of a captain. Even if he knows that there may be his own people outside the boat, he still has to respond calmly and take measures to prevent risks and launch counterattacks.

That is why among the four people hiding in the dark, there are the first officer, the radar operator, and the mechanic. These three people are equivalent to another team on the current submarine.

As for Feng Baolai, he was a cook who was good at using knives! Besides, another famous name for a ship's chef was "cook"!

The most powerful person on the entire ship may be the cook who hasn't cooked a proper meal in more than 200 years!

However, Captain Zhao's careful grooming of his military appearance did not show any falsehood or acting at all; he was really conscientious in grooming himself.

Afterwards, Zhou talked with his comrades in the submarine about various things he had seen and heard in the wasteland. The crew laughed and talked about it. When they learned that the destructive nuclear war was actually started by aliens, everyone was silent and fell into a long silence.

After a long while, Captain Zhao Weiguo finally spoke: "Before we entered radio silence, our motherland was negotiating with the federal government. Although the negotiations were going smoothly at the time, the country needed us to enter the northwest Atlantic waters for lurking.

Before we set off, the commander told us that the country and the federal government were trying to avoid dragging the war into an irreversible nuclear war. But trying to avoid it does not mean it will not happen, so our mission is to destroy all nuclear material purification plants, nuclear bomb manufacturing projects and nuclear power plants in Massachusetts first when a nuclear war breaks out.
