Chapter 1572 Can't Sleep at Night
In fact, Ye Qian could roughly guess what was bothering the captain, but he didn't explain. What should be said, the captain will naturally say, if he doesn't say it, Ye Qian won't force it, everyone has their own secrets.
The captain took a sip of the wine, the pungent taste poured down his throat, and large beads of sweat appeared on his burned forehead. Sighing deeply, the captain said: "Do you know why I charge you so much money? In fact, I charge you so much money on purpose. I just wanted to stop you from being together. However, you are So persistent, hey. I will return the money to you later.”
"No need, we appreciate the captain's kindness. It is only natural to pay for the boat. We are already very happy if the captain can carry us," Ye Qian said.
"Everyone is out to run the rivers and lakes. I think you two are not as simple as ordinary businessmen, right?" said the captain. Good guys and bad guys, you can generally see it. Do you know why I don't want to drive you?"
Ye Qian and Xie Fei shook their heads slightly, the two of them actually knew it in their hearts, but deliberately pretended not to know anything, just waiting for him to say it himself. The captain sighed slightly, and said: "Actually, I don't want to harm you. You don't know that we are going to pass through the Somali waters ahead, where pirates are rampant. I am afraid that your lives will be in danger. We are different, we must Pass through there, otherwise the goods will not be able to be transported, and you have to take risks. But, you don’t have to do this at all. The Somali pirates are fierce and cruel, and it is difficult to survive in their hands, unless there are A large amount of ransom, otherwise, death is certain."
"We've heard about Somali pirates, and they're often broadcast on TV news, but we haven't seen real Somali pirates yet." Ye Qian said, "Seeing the captain's worried expression, it seems that those gangs Pirates are really not kind people. However, I don’t think the captain should worry so much, maybe he won’t meet those Somali pirates?”
"I hope so," said the captain, with a sigh. After a pause, the captain went on to say: "If you really meet those pirates, you two must not be impulsive, and follow my arrangement. If you pretend to be a crew member, there may be a chance of survival. I will try my best to keep the two of you alive." bit."
"Thank you, Captain." Ye Qian said, "I offer you a toast." After speaking, Ye Qian picked up the wine glass, touched the captain, and drank it down. Seeing the captain's worried expression, Ye Qian couldn't bear it. It can be seen that the captain is still a good person, there is no reason for him to suffer such a disaster. However, Ye Qian didn't know how to tell him, could it be that he was going to meet the Somali pirates this time and negotiate with them? Now that things are up to now, we can only help them comprehensively and try to keep them when the time comes.
Putting down the wine glass, the captain stood up and said, "Drink slowly, I'm going to rest first. You should also rest early, don't drink too much alcohol, it's not good for your health."
"Okay." Ye Qian said, "Then the captain, go slowly, we will return to the cabin after a while."
The captain nodded slightly, turned and left. Seeing his leaving back, Xie Fei sighed helplessly, and said: "It's not easy for them to run a ship, not to mention the many risks at sea, and they have to worry about being robbed by pirates, hey." Paused , turned to look at Ye Qian, and then said: "What are you going to do? We don't know where Teddy Imbury is at all, so we can only call him to pick us up. But, in case they come, we will I'm afraid that this ship will be in danger, maybe Teddy Inbree will detain them and use them as a condition for negotiating with you."
For Xie Fei's words, Ye Qian also agreed, nodded slightly, and said: "This is indeed a problem I am worried about, especially after hearing what the captain said just now, I am really embarrassed to drag him into the water. Put him in a dangerous place. However, there is no other way. There is only one small escape boat on this cargo ship. It is estimated that the captain will not lend it to us, and we can't speak too plainly. It is now , I can only take one step at a time, I will try my best to save them, don't worry, unless I die, otherwise, the Somali pirates will never hurt a hair of them."
"However, it's going to surprise them, hehe." Xie Fei shook his head helplessly and said.
"Let's find a way to make up for it later," Ye Qian said. After finishing speaking, Ye Qian looked up at the sky, the sky was full of stars, it seemed that tomorrow would be a good weather, but it was not destined to be a calm day. Ye Qian's action this time is indeed a bit risky, if he doesn't make it right, his life will be in danger, who knows if the gang of pirates will be the same as he guessed? However, as Ye Qian said, how can you get a tiger cub if you don't enter the tiger's den? If he wanted to resolve the conflict between Spike and the Somali pirates, he had to show some sincerity. As the leader of Spike, he still needed to have the air of a general.
"Let's go, keep your spirits up, maybe tomorrow will be a bloody battle." Ye Qian said with a chuckle.
"Blood battle? The two of us can fight bloody battles. This is the sea, not land. We can still run if we can't beat it. Here we can't run even if we want to, unless we are confident that we can swim back." Xie Fei dismissed He curled his lips and said.
Hehe smiled, and Ye Qian said: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, maybe that Teddy Inbury will entertain us with a big banquet. Anyway, I am also a distinguished guest, hehe."
Helplessly rolled his eyes, Xie Fei didn't bother to pay attention to Ye Qian, and walked towards the cabin.
The next morning, Ye Qian and Xie Fei got up early. It may be a matter of not getting used to it, so Ye Qian and Xie Fei actually didn't sleep much at night. Ye Qian is better, because running around all the year round has more or less formed a habit, and he can adapt to the environment very well. Xie Fei is different. He used to spend most of his time in Country YD. Although he has been running around with Ye Qian recently, his time is short after all, so he is not very used to it.
Throughout the night, Xie Fei was always tossing and turning, pulling Ye Qian to talk from time to time. But Ye Qian just pretended to be asleep and kept silent, which made Xie Fei helpless in the end, so he had to stare at the ceiling by himself. When I woke up in the morning, my eyes had dark circles, obviously because I didn't sleep well.
A crew member came over and greeted Ye Qian and Xie Fei to have breakfast. When they saw Xie Fei's appearance, they couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing. Ye Qian couldn't help laughing, Xie Fei rolled his eyes, and gave Ye Qian a hard look.
When we arrived in the cabin, the table was already filled with various breakfasts. It's very simple, after all, it's on a boat, and it can't be compared with being on land. The captain called Ye Qian and Xie Fei to sit down, poured a glass of milk for each of them, and said: "The food on board is almost there, so you can make do with it." Then, with a glance, he couldn't help seeing Xie Fei's expression, apologizing He smiled and said, "Maybe Mr. Xie is not used to it? Didn't sleep well last night? If necessary, I have sleeping pills, you can take one. People who don't often run on the boat suddenly boarded the boat , It will indeed be very uncomfortable. The two of you have already figured it out. When I first got on the boat, I vomited and diarrhea, which almost killed me. Drink this cup of hot milk quickly. If you are sleepy, You can go back and sleep for a while."
"It's better to be the captain, unlike some heartless people who just laugh at me when they see me like this." Xie Fei curled his lips and said, deliberately glanced at Ye Qian, the meaning behind his words was obvious. However, there is no need for too much between him and Ye Qian, everyone can hear the jokes, Ye Qian will not take it seriously, and Xie Fei will not take it seriously.
Hehe smiled, and the captain said: "It can be seen that your relationship is very good. In fact, a person's life is very short, and it is even more difficult to have one or two close friends, especially in this impetuous society. , People’s hearts are full of intrigues, even friends would like to stab you in the back. Seeing Mr. Ye and Mr. Xie like this, I am really happy for you and I am very envious." After a pause, the captain went on to say: "According to the scheduled route, if there are no accidents, we will arrive in the Somali waters this afternoon. At that time, we may encounter Somali pirates. So, you all be careful. According to what I told you yesterday, don't be impulsive , You know? I have lived most of my life, and I am still very accurate in judging people. I can tell that you two are probably not simple people. However, Somali pirates are not ordinary people, so you have to bear it. Don't you Huaxia have a saying that a gentleman can endure what others can't bear."
"Thank you, Captain, for your reminder." Ye Qian said, "We know what to do, so don't worry, Captain. However, the Captain seems to know a lot about us in Huaxia, hehe."
"When I was young, I ran a ship, went to Huaxia several times, and dealt with many Chinese crew members. Forgive me for saying something that should not be said, what you Huaxia people have is too tolerant, even if others hit you in the face. I can bear it. This is a bit like feeding a tiger." Said the captain.
Slightly nodded, Ye Qian said: "Sometimes it is indeed like this, but I believe it will gradually change. Just like before, the island country clamored to occupy Yudao, but now? Hehe, so, Huaxia will It's getting stronger and stronger." Ye Qian naturally wouldn't say that today's island country is no longer the island country it used to be, but the world of his Spike. If it is said, the captain probably will not believe it.
