At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Xiaoxiao had just woken up when she heard a knock on the door, so she got up and went to the door to open it.
When she opened the door, she saw Zhang Ming standing at the door. She asked Zhang Ming, "It's not time for dinner yet. Why are you here?"
"I'm not here for dinner."
"Oh, so what are you here for?"
Zhang Ming felt a little embarrassed after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, because what they had done before was indeed a bit shady.
But when he thought of what the captain had told him to do, he said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "The captain wants to see you. Could you come with me to the wheelhouse?"
"May I first ask what your captain wants from me?"
"I don't know, but I guess it has something to do with your medical skills."
"Okay, I'll go with you." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she told Mr. Fan what she was going to do, and then she and Zhang Ming walked towards the cab together.
When she entered the cabin, she saw that there were not many people in the cabin, only two or three people were driving the ship.
As for the remaining man, he was looking out the window with a telescope. She knew without thinking that he was the captain in charge of the helm.
But isn't this captain too young? He looks to be in his early thirties, and he looks insecure.
Suddenly she regretted taking this boat again.
"Captain, I've called people here." Seeing that the captain was reluctant to pay attention to them, Zhang Ming took the initiative to speak to the captain.
After hearing Zhang Ming's words, the captain put down the telescope in his hand and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao who was standing next to Zhang Ming.
After a long while, he finally said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "My name is Meng Yuan, and I'm the captain of this ship."
"Hello, Captain Meng, what can I do for you?"
"I want to ask how good your medical skills are?"
"Not very advanced, just bandaging wounds and some simple first aid."
"That's enough. I have an unreasonable request and I hope you can agree to it."
"What kind of unreasonable request?"
"I would like to hire you as the ship's doctor until the ship reaches its destination."
"No problem, but I don't want money. I just want you to take care of my and my grandfather's three meals a day."
"No problem. I'll have Zhang Ming deliver your meals to your room on time."
"Okay, thank you very much, Captain Meng. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
"It's okay, you can go back."
After hearing what Meng Yuan said, Lu Xiaoxiao walked out of the cab without saying a word and walked towards the house where she lived.
When she entered the room, she saw Mr. Fan sitting leisurely on a stool reading a medical book. He didn't look worried about her at all, and she suddenly felt unbalanced.
So she said to Master Fan: "Master, aren't you worried that something might happen to me?"
"If anything happens to everyone on the ship, nothing will happen to you, so I have nothing to worry about."
"At least you should pretend to do it."
"Oh, I'll pay attention next time. What do they want from you?"
"What else could it be? Of course, you are attracted by my medical skills."
"You agree?"
"How can I refuse? Besides, there are only so many people on the ship. As long as they don't encounter people intercepting the ship, they won't need me at all. How can I refuse such a good deal?"
After listening to what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Mr. Fan also felt that they had gained an advantage in this matter, but there were too many variables at sea, so they should not be happy too soon.
Thinking of this, he told Lu Xiaoxiao his idea.
