Chapter 1178 Fully Prepared
Chapter 1178 is fully prepared
Xia Ruofei said to Qin Lan: "If it is convenient to arrange, it is better to fill up the gas now!"
Because there is remaining diesel in the fuel tank, I don't know how much fuel to fill up. Although it is unlikely that the yacht club will make small moves in such matters as fueling, Xia Ruofei thinks it is better to watch it in person, and it will be done on the spot. After paying the money, everyone is relieved.
Qin Lan said: "Mr. Xia, if you want to refuel, you need to drive the yacht to a special berth. If we temporarily find a yacht driver, it may take a little time."
Qin Lan also considered that Xia Ruofei's time was precious, so he said that he would go to refuel in the afternoon. After all, the yacht drivers are all prepared in advance, and it does not mean that someone will use it at any time. If you need to refuel immediately, then Xia Ruofei will wait here. .
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Manager Qin, you just need to get in touch with the person who refuels. I can drive the yacht by myself."
"Ah?" Qin Lan was taken aback and said, "Mr. Xia, this is not a joke. Driving a yacht requires qualifications, and the penalty for driving without a license is very heavy!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and put his hand into the inner pocket of his coat. Of course, he actually took out his yacht driver's license from the Lingtu space, and then handed it to Qin Lan and said, "Manager Qin, I have the license!"
Qin Lan was a little confused, and subconsciously took Xia Ruofei's yacht driver's license, opened it and took a look, and found that the license holder was really Xia Ruofei.
She wouldn't doubt the authenticity of this certificate, but it's just a little accident that a rich man like Xia Ruofei would take the time to learn how to drive a yacht? Aren't they all the kind that go up and down hundreds of thousands in minutes?
People who have money to buy yachts usually hire professional drivers and sailors. For yachts like Xia Ruofei, there is one driver and two sailors, and at most two service personnel are enough. The wages of these people add up. Not much!
However, these thoughts only flashed in Qin Lan's mind, she quickly recovered, and quickly returned the driver's license to Xia Ruofei, saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xia, I didn't doubt your intention, but I didn't. Thinking that you actually got a yacht driver's license..."
"It's okay!" Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Manager Qin, can we go cheer up?"
"Of course!" Qin Lan said, "I'll contact you right away!"
Qin Lan took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, hung up after saying a few words, and then said to Xia Ruofei: "Mr. Xia,
Our crew is already preparing, you can start the yacht and I'll show you the way. "
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Let's go to the Feiqiao! There's a good view over there!"
The flybridge deck is located on the top deck of the yacht and is the most open deck of the yacht.
The flybridge of this Azimut 100 leonardo is 11 meters long. At the front end of this deck, there is a second driving area, where the yacht can also be driven, because there is no windshield, and the position is high and has a good view. , you can experience the feeling of galloping fast and fast.
In addition to the cockpit area, this yacht has a lounge area on the flybridge deck, a jacuzzi with sun pads, as well as a large sunbed pad near the cockpit and a dining table for 8 guests.
Although Qin Lan was a little afraid of the cold wind in this winter, she couldn't refuse the customer's request. Besides, it was not far from the berth for refueling, so I passed the refueling pier, which was originally operated by the yacht club and belonged to the club. one of the infrastructure.
Qin Lan followed Xia Ruofei to the fly bridge deck, Xia Ruofei sat in the driver's seat and started the yacht, Qin Lan stood beside him and gave him directions at any time.
To be honest, Qin Lan is still a little clueless. After all, every time Xia Ruofei came to experience the yacht before, it was driven by a professional yacht driver, and he never saw Xia Ruofei show that he knew how to drive a yacht!
However, the yacht started steadily and slowly left the berth. Qin Lan's heart also settled down. She has been on various types of yachts and has cooperated with different yacht drivers. Looking at Xia Ruofei's operation, she knew that he must be If you know how to drive a yacht, then this certificate is really not bought with money.
In fact, although the yacht driver's license was not bought with money, Xia Ruofei didn't spend a minute to train, let alone take the test, and Shi Qiang helped to get it.
Of course, when Xia Ruofei was in the army, he had received some quick training and mastered the basic operations, and then he carefully studied the yacht driver training materials provided by Shi Qiang and the operation manual of this yacht, so he drove this yacht. That must be easy.
The yacht slowly moved forward, and after a while, it came to the berth dedicated to refueling.
Xia Ruofei saw that there were several berths in this row, and there were refueling machines, which was equivalent to a gas station, except that the object of refueling was yachts in the water.
Xia Ruofei became more proficient after some operations just now, and he controlled the yacht to berth accurately.
There were already staff waiting on the shore, first took the cable to fix the yacht on the berth, and then came over with a refueling gun to refuel the yacht.
The fuel tank capacity of this yacht is about 11,000 liters, and it is about 60,000 yuan with full fuel. However, there was a surplus in the fuel tank, so in the end Xia Ruofei paid about 50,000 yuan for the fuel.
Although it is not as exaggerated as ten or two hundred thousand, for ordinary people, this yacht is really not fun.
After all, even if it is full of oil, if the sailing is relatively far away, I am afraid that one round trip will use the oil almost.
After refueling, Xia Ruofei drove the yacht back to his dedicated berth and parked it before getting off the yacht.
Before driving away from the yacht club, Xia Ruofei told Qin Lan that he would use the yacht to go to sea tomorrow and the day after.
Of course, Xia Ruofei said it casually. He didn't need the yacht club to prepare a driver, and he didn't need to bring any other staff.
After leaving the yacht club, Xia Ruofei contacted Liu Zhe again.
The main reason was to buy diesel. He thought that Liu Zhe's father was a leader of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and he should have had more dealings with large state-owned enterprises such as "Two Barrels of Oil". If he asked him for help, he should be able to buy diesel smoothly.
After all, the gas station does not sell diesel directly. You can only drive to add it. If you want to buy in bulk, you usually go to the oil depot, but the procedure is very troublesome and involves the approval of many departments.
When Liu Zhe heard that Xia Ruofei wanted to wholesale a batch of diesel, he didn't ask Xia Ruofei what he was buying diesel for, but he agreed immediately, and also asked how much Xia Ruofei needed to buy.
Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said, "If possible, about 100 tons! Of course, if there are difficulties, it can be a little less."
The fuel tank capacity of his yacht is about ten tons. If you save another 100 tons of diesel, it means that the cruising range can be increased tenfold at once, and it can be driven at least several thousand nautical miles. If you use economic speed, you can even drive A round trip to Australia.
With such a long cruising range, he can gallop freely at sea.
After listening to it, Liu Zhe said with a smile, "Brother Xia has spoken, what can't you do? Besides, 100 tons is not too much. I will run the relevant procedures for you, and it will be done in a day!"
"Thank you so much!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "By the way, I need to pack all these diesels in oil drums, and then help me deliver them to the designated place. I will pay for the oil drums and shipping costs. "
"No problem!" Liu Zhe said, "I have them all packed in 200l big oil drums!"
Xia Ruofei did a calculation. The density of diesel oil is lower than that of water. 1 ton of diesel oil is about 1200l, that is, 6 barrels are needed, and 100 tons is about 600 barrels.
This kind of oil drum can be stacked several layers, and his warehouse in the city can completely put it down.
So he said, "Okay! Liu Zhe, I'll send you the address in a while. You tell the other party that I will pay by cash check. If they need to transfer money, I can also call them into their account in advance."
"Okay!" Liu Zhe said, "Brother Xia, just wait for my news!"
...
Liu Zhe's efficiency is very high. He called Xia Ruofei in the afternoon and told Xia Ruofei that the procedures had been completed, and the oil depot had been contacted. 100 tons of diesel oil was only about 120,000 liters. Such a small amount of oil was not a big deal for the oil depot. Nothing, no need to adjust the oil.
It's just that it takes a little time because Xia Ruofei requires all of them to be packed in buckets.
This afternoon, the oil depot will start filling barrels, work overtime at night, and deliver it to the warehouse designated by Xia Ruofei early tomorrow morning.
Xia Ruofei was overjoyed and said, "Thank you! Liu Zhe, you have helped me a lot!"
Liu Zhe said with a smile: "Brother Xia, this kind of thing is a big effort for me, you don't have to be so polite... By the way, I'll go there tomorrow too!"
"No need!" Xia Ruofei said, "Just give me the contact information of the people who lead the team! I will wait for them in advance."
"I'll be fine tomorrow anyway..."
"I really don't need to be so troublesome, you can just say hello." Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "and I may buy it more than once! In the future, I will trouble you, you can't always follow the oil every time!"
"Alright then!" Liu Zhe said, "Brother Xia, if there is anything, you can call me directly."
"Okay!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Ruofei started to organize things.
He used this afternoon to purchase a lot of things in the urban area, including food, drinking water and other marine necessities, as well as some emergency facilities, survival equipment and so on.
If it is an ordinary person, limited by the capacity of the yacht, there is no way to carry too much, but Xia Ruofei carries a space with almost unlimited capacity, so there is no such concern at all.
I don't know how long it will take to go out this time, and what will happen at sea is unknown, so Xia Ruofei has a lot of food, drinking water, seasonings, etc., and other materials as long as they feel that they may be used at sea. Yes, he also buys heavily.
In the afternoon, he used several small trucks for supermarket deliveries, as well as delivery trucks from other stores. His villa in the city has become a courier transit station.
That night, after Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue practiced for a while, they sent her home early.
Xia Ruofei also told Ling Qingxue that he was going to sail a yacht for a few days.
Of course, he first invited Ling Qingxue to go out with him, but when he heard that he was going to go out for a few days in order to test the performance of the yacht, Ling Qingxue backed off. , can be used as a hands-off shopkeeper.
Xia Ruofei was originally going to go to sea alone. As for going to the sea with Ling Qingxue to enjoy the two-person world, we can only talk about it next time.
After returning home, Xia Ruofei went to bed early to rest.
The next day, he simply ate some breakfast, sent Ling Qingxue to the company, and then drove straight to the warehouse in the city.
The car that delivered the oil from the oil depot has not arrived yet, but a manager surnamed Wu has contacted Xia Ruofei in advance, telling Xia Ruofei that they have set off there, and the time should be coming soon.
Xia Ruofei opened the door of the warehouse, and then sent a WeChat message to Feng Jing on her mobile phone while waiting, telling her that she was going out for a few days, and there might be no signal by then.
He also left Feng Jing the maritime satellite phone number equipped on the yacht, so that if there is any urgent need to contact him, no one will be found.
Feng Jing was used to Xia Ruofei's picks from time to time, and didn't even complain about Xia Ruofei, but just said that she knew it, and then there was no more.
Xia Ruofei waited for another ten minutes or so, and saw a convoy of several large trucks approaching from a distance.
A middle-aged man in his forties jumped out of the first car and said to Xia Ruofei, "Hello, are you President Xia?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "It's me! Are you Manager Wu? Hard work! Hard work!"
"Mr. Xia is very kind! This is our job!" Manager Wu said with a smile, "All 600 barrels of diesel are here! Mr. Xia, are you unloading to this warehouse?"
Xia Ruofei nodded, then glanced at the trucks carrying fuel, and said, "Yes! The door here is relatively high, and the car can be directly driven in and unloaded..."
"Okay, okay..." Manager Wu said.
Then he beckoned and called a subordinate to come over, and gave a few words in a low voice. The first truck started slowly immediately, increased its horsepower and drove up the small slope at the door of the warehouse, and drove directly into the warehouse.
The loading and unloading workers brought by Manager Wu also immediately ran into the warehouse and began to unload the trucks quickly.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said to Manager Wu, "Manager Wu, let's settle the payment! Do you accept cash checks? If it's not convenient, I can go to the bank with you to transfer money."
"Convenient! Convenient!" Manager Wu said quickly, "You can just give a cash check!"
Xia Ruofei nodded, took out the checkbook from his body, and asked, "How much is it in total?"
