Chapter 1281 A group of 'old friends' came
"Old Chen, what on earth is the boss thinking?" Ma Xiao's voice came over the intercom in the captain's room. "We've been at sea for ten days, and we're just sitting here doing nothing? Everyone on the ship is talking about it."
Chen Cheng picked up the intercom and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? Why are you asking me instead of asking your boss?"
Ma Xiao said helplessly, "I'd like to ask the boss, but can I see him? What is he doing now?"
"What else can I do?" Chen Cheng said, "Drinking and bragging."
Ma Xiao asked, "I saw the helicopters flew away just now. What were they doing?"
Chen Cheng said, "Oh, nothing much. Send Mr. Chen back to the Netherlands."
"Do you need two helicopters to send one person?" Ma Xiao asked in confusion.
"He said he wanted to pick up an old friend." Chen Cheng replied.
Ma Xiao quickly asked, "What old friend?"
Chen Cheng said: "Go ask the boss!"
Ma Xiao said speechlessly, "Old Chen, don't just brush me off with this one sentence. Tell me some information."
"What news?" Chen Cheng was also helpless: "I really don't know! I don't know what's wrong with the boss recently. He attaches great importance to confidentiality. Even Walter and the others don't know what the boss is going to do! But don't worry, I feel that the boss is going to make some big moves this time. You should get the people on your ship prepared."
"Alas, that's what I told the people on the boat. Duan Bo and Xiao Zhou were all anxious, checking the ROV and HOV every day. They asked me every day when we could get into the water! How do you want me to answer them?" Ma Xiao said helplessly.
Chen Cheng said: "Tell them: If they are curious, they can become their own bosses!"
Ma Xiao was about to speak when Chen Cheng continued, "Alright, don't be so anxious! I'm telling you, it should be soon. A few days ago, I heard him and Mr. Chen say that they were going to do a big live broadcast in a few days. He's definitely going to do it to salvage the boat. I don't know which old friend is coming this time, but I guess his arrival means we're almost ready to start work!"
"Are you sure?" Ma Xiao asked quickly.
Chen Cheng angrily shouted, "I'm not sure of anything! I was just guessing! Okay, the helicopter should be here by now! I'm going to direct the dynamic positioning. Can you ask the people on your ship if they're used to the good life and why they're talking so much nonsense now? If they don't want to spend their vacation at sea with a salary, then go home! If you can't even do this kind of job as a captain, what kind of captain are you? I will report the complaints of the crew on the 'Calypso' truthfully! You can handle it yourselves! I'm telling you - there are many crew members in the Mediterranean waiting to take their places!"
He hung up the intercom right after he finished speaking.
In the captain's room on the Calypso, a group of people looked at each other in confusion.
Ma Xiao put down the intercom: "Okay, you all heard it."
This time, Ma Xiao was forced to abdicate. The crew members on the "Calypso" sent representatives to find Ma Xiao and asked him when they would start work.
After all, Ma Xiao only boarded the ship halfway, and his prestige on the ship was not that high. In addition, he was young, so some old crew members naturally looked down on him, which led to this "forcing the palace" incident.
To put it bluntly, the crew of the 'Calypso' had become too proud.
Now the "Calypso" is really famous. It is well-known in every port it goes to, and the crew members on the ship are also respected. Even racists will show respect to them when they know they are from the "Calypso", at least they will maintain respect for the sake of face - everyone knows that the "Salvage King" is not easy to mess with.
This also caused these crew members to have a "misunderstanding" of themselves, thinking that they were the best in the world, and naturally became arrogant. They looked down on everyone, and of course they did not take the young captain Ma Xiao seriously.
Upon hearing Xiao Peng's urgent recall, they were all fired up, thinking they were about to salvage another world-shaking ship. Instead, they were left at sea, staring blankly in disbelief. They felt like they were using a butcher knife to kill a chicken, hence this "forced palace coup."
Ma Xiao had no choice but to contact Chen Cheng to inquire about the news. However, Chen Cheng's last words hit them hard: they finally understood: they were so awesome not because of themselves, but because of Xiao Peng!
Now they looked at each other in bewilderment. If Xiao Peng knew that they were forcing Ma Xiao to ask him what to do next,
Work process, this is troublesome.
"Um... I'll go back first! I'll go check the engine room." someone said.
"There's still a lot of work to do on deck, so I'm going back too!"
"Uh, Captain, I'm just passing by!"
"Captain, we're leaving first!"
"Captain, just pretend I've never been here!"
The captain's room of the Calypso, which had been bustling just a moment ago, was now filled with only Ma Xiao left.
Ma Xiao curled his lips. Where's your ability just now? You think you can bully me? Now you're scared when you hear about the boss?
You really treat me, the captain, like a mere decoration! I'll make things difficult for you if I don't!
Of course, now wasn't the time to think about that. He quickly walked to the cockpit and peered into the sky with his binoculars. Chen Cheng said the helicopter was almost back. He was curious to see who this 'old friend' Xiao Peng was waiting for, and why he had to send a helicopter to pick him up.
Not long after, the sound of engines was heard in the sky, and two helicopters flew back and landed on the "Luna".
After the propeller stopped working, a foreign old man got off the plane. When he saw Xiao Peng, he hugged him warmly.
Ma Xiao took a look and said: Uh, I don’t know him. I thought some big shot from the country had come, but I got excited for nothing.
Damn, you look old enough to be Xiao Peng’s grandfather, and you’re still hugging me like this, aren’t you afraid of spraining your waist?
He had just put down the binoculars when he froze. He picked them up again from the table and peered back at the Luna. His eyes nearly popped out: a group of beautiful women descended from two helicopters, each one a perfect size and a perfect look. What was the boss doing? Was he planning a yacht party on the Luna? Was this the foreign model team he'd hired?
Oh my god, the boss’ girls are of such good quality!
Ma Xiao was still envious of Xiao Peng, but he didn't know that on the "Luna", Xiao Peng had a sad look on his face.
"Lukashenko! Are you planning to kill me?" Xiao Peng sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Standing before him was his old friend, Alexander Pavlovich Lukashenko, a history professor at Belarusian State University. When Xiao Peng had gone to Belarus, Ivan had introduced Lukashenko to him and made things easier for him. And disembarking from the helicopter was, of course, the so-called "Belarusian Marine Research Team!"
Holy crap! Whose marine research team has a historian leading it? And a bunch of pretty girls?
Can you please use your brain before you lie?
