In addition to medicines, the Red Cross's medical ships are equipped with basic food and drinking water. This ship's warehouse has more than a dozen boxes of instant noodles and a large barrel of drinking water, as well as several pitchers of Pepsi, Sarsaparilla soda, canned Ceylon tea, and bread sealed in oil paper. The food reserves are enough for it to sail at sea for half a month, and of course, it can reach Hong Kong.
But there isn't much oil.
All the ship's oil tanks were empty, and only a quarter of the oil remained in the fuel tanks.
With that little bit of oil, it's already difficult to get to the high seas, let alone cross the high seas back to Hong Kong.
Compared to her previous life, Chen Rou's physical fitness is only 30% of what it was in her previous life. She was exhausted from last night's physical exertion and couldn't wait to open a can of cola and gulp it down.
After downing half a can of Coke in one gulp and letting out a burp, she asked the driver, "This boat needs refueling, right? Usually, do you have the gas station staff deliver it to your door, or do you just drive the boat to the gas station to refuel?"
The doctor's eyes lit up, and he said, "They deliver the oil from gas stations. I can call them now and they'll deliver it."
He then laughed and said, "I'll call someone to deliver oil. I'll call right away."
Chen Rou dragged over a box of instant noodles for the doctor to hold, then put a case of cola on top of it, sneered, and said, "If it weren't for your medical knowledge, you would already be dead."
She calmly poured the remaining half-can of cola over the doctor's head and said, "All the ships around here refuel at Gui Touchang's Anilo port because you don't produce oil locally and have to rely on imports. Gui Touchang occupies the only foreign trade port, Anilo, and gasoline is his monopoly product. Not only did you deceive me, but you also wanted to call him to tip him off so he would come and arrest me. Do you think you're so clever?"
According to the doctor, although Chen Rou was beautiful, she was young and should not be difficult to deceive.
But this young, beautiful, and ruthless woman was incredibly shrewd; she could see right through him with just a glance.
The doctor was convinced and resigned to his fate.
He said honestly, "If you want to refuel, you have to go to Anilo Port, but you escaped from there, so you probably don't dare to go back, right? I advise you to hide somewhere else. I promise I won't report you, I swear to God, okay?"
Chen Rou turned back upstairs, smiling as she asked, "Who told you we dared not go back?"
The doctor was taken aback: "Do you really want to go back to Gui Tou Chang's camp? Aren't you afraid he'll catch you?"
Wan Daozai was waiting on the stairs, dozing off. He wasn't hungry because he had eaten on the way, and he wasn't interested in instant noodles, but he was interested in cola.
He took the Coke from the doctor, opened it eagerly, and gulped it down. He let out a satisfied burp: "That felt great!"
Song Yuanchao and Nie Han were together, and they also got a can of Coke and drank it down.
After fighting your way through the enemy lines, having another can of Coke feels amazing! There's only one word to describe it: awesome!
Now that we've caught our breath, it's time to discuss the next steps.
Chen Rou was the one who led the escape and was undoubtedly the leader. Her plan was this: the ship could cross the high seas, but it didn't have enough oil, at least four barrels short. So she went back to Anilo Port to get oil, get enough gasoline in one go, and cross the high seas back to Hong Kong. If she could get the oil smoothly, that would be best; if not, she would steal it.
Once they arrived in Hong Kong, everyone went their separate ways and returned home.
Nie Han was still massaging Nie Zhao. She was rather simple-minded and didn't think things through. She blurted out, "Sister Rou, we finally escaped. What if we go back and get caught?"
The islander is cowardly and disloyal. He said, "I object. I would rather die than go back to the park."
Chen Rou crossed her arms, raised an eyebrow, and smiled at Song Yuanchao.
It was already daylight, and the sun was about to rise. It was the first time she had taken a close look at Song Yuanchao.
He was about 183cm tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a resolute expression, and straight shoulders and back, exuding the air of someone from the military.
He was also the only one who loyally followed her and unconditionally agreed to all her actions.
He said, "Ms. Chen is the boss. She gave me the order, so there's no room for discussion. I support her!"
The Taiwanese man sincerely said, "Gentlemen, please, my father is very rich. As long as I get back to Taiwan alive, I can ask him for money. Calm down, just get me some oil and send me back to Taiwan. I will give you the money, OK?"
Song Yuanchao frowned: "Since your father is rich, why hasn't he redeemed you and let you work as a laborer in the Philippines?"
Taiwanese people must have their own unspeakable reasons for refusing to redeem their son despite his father's wealth.
When Song Yuanchao asked him that question, he hesitated, but he still insisted: "Anyway, I would rather die than go back to the park!"
Going to Taiwan requires less fuel, but the relationship between the Taiwan government and the Philippines is ambiguous. They could be arrested as soon as they arrive in Taiwan, or be surrounded and attacked by the underworld in Taiwan. Chen Rou would not take that risk.
Therefore, there was no room for discussion, and since there were objections, Chen Rou's approach was also very crude.
She said, "I advocate going back to get oil. Ah-Han will listen to me, and Song Yuanchao also supports me. So it's decided. Since the Taiwanese guy is against it, you can get off the ship and escape on your own. We'll say goodbye here!"
The Taiwanese man was taken aback, thinking to himself, "I just expressed a different opinion, and now I'm going to be abandoned?"
The doctor, Lai, said with a smile, "I also object to going to the park. I can get off the ship now, right?"
Chen Rou glared at him: "You can't. You have to come back to Hong Kong with us. If anyone gets injured on the way, we'll come to their aid immediately."
The doctor was displeased and pointed at the boy from Taiwan: "Why can he leave, but I can't?"
He clasped his hands together and said, "Miss, please, I really don't want to take any risks with you. Please let me go."
