Chapter 1842 Next Stop, the Road of Life
Bruch was flying the plane, while Kashin lay in the flight seat with his feet on the flight platform, holding a satellite phone. "Hey, Desarev, our boss said it's still cold out there, so why is he in such a hurry? He'll just take his time and have a few days. Anyway, you have our location and the satellite phone, so you can keep track of our movements."
Desarev on the other end of the phone said anxiously, "Kasin, the higher-ups are very anxious! Can you help me urge Xiao?"
Kasin replied, "Our boss said he needs the equipment on the New Calypso this time. This is a good time to let the New Calypso sail through the Northeast Passage and see what it's capable of."
Desaryev was almost in tears. "Kasin, please ask Xiao how I've offended him. Isn't he trying to kill me? Isn't the 'New Calypso' helping with exploration missions on October Revolution Island?"
"Our boss said that the mission over there has been completed. Now he has sent Ma Xiao into the Kara Sea along the Central Executive Committee's Communiqué Islands, bypassing the Barents Sea and the Norwegian Sea to enter the Baltic Sea. It will take about fifteen to twenty days to get there. By that time, the ice over there will be almost thawed, and we can have a good job. He told me to tell you that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Kasim said lazily.
Desaryev was silent for a while. "Kasin, we have a good relationship, right? What's Mr. Xiao doing? He seems to have something against me!"
Kasim glanced back at the cabin and lowered his voice, "Don't you know what the hell you did? It's good enough that my boss didn't hang you on the wing of the plane as a mascot!"
Desarev on the other end of the phone was anxious: "Kasin, do you think I'm wronged? What have I done? We've been together for so long, you have to help me!"
Kashin asked in return: "Where is the Suvorov Military Academy?"
"Uh..." DeSalyev stopped talking.
Kaxin said, "You don't know my boss. Why wouldn't he even take us with him? He's the type who wants to do something bad but doesn't want anyone to know! You ruined our planned hunting trip, how could he not be upset? Oh no!"
Before he could finish his words, an empty can flew out of the cabin and hit him on the head. Without even looking, he knew it was Xiao Peng who threw the can.
Kasin hurriedly said, "The boss heard it, buddy, I can't help you, see you in a month!"
"Isn't it fifteen to twenty days? Kashin? Kashin?" Desarev held the phone and heard the dead tone of hanging up.
Denisov on the side quickly asked: "Commander Desarev, what exactly happened?"
Desaryev smiled bitterly and shook his head. "They say we Russians are willful, but this guy is even more willful than us! Forget it, I'll call the higher-ups first."
"When do we leave Norilsk?" Denisov asked again.
Desaryev sighed and said, "Just wait, it turns out that we stayed here just for show, and now we have to stay here to avoid responsibility. Xiao is too willful!"
Why does Xiao Peng have a problem with Desarev?
He originally thought he would send Vera and Rosa to Dudinka so they could take a plane to the Suvorov Military Academy. But when he arrived in Dudinka, he learned: Where is the Suvorov Military Academy? St. Petersburg!
And where is Xiao Peng going now? St. Petersburg!
The two girls were crying and begging to be with Xiao Peng! Xiao Peng had no choice but to take them with him. He finally understood why Desarev had insisted on sending the two girls to the Suvorov Military Academy when there were so many military academies in Russia. Was he trying to match him up with these two girls?
Do I need you to bring them together? Do you understand past tense? Past tense! We were just having sex to have fun together, and you want me to be responsible for them forever?
With Desarev's arrangement, Xiao Peng had no choice but to take them along. Was he someone who would easily be taken advantage of? He might as well just sit back and relax until he got to St. Petersburg. He'd already stocked up in Dudinka and was ready for a good time.
He was having a blast, while Desarev was frustrated. The higher-ups were freaked out, yet Xiao Peng acted as if nothing had happened. And the problem was actually his own fault. How could he not be afraid of being held accountable?
On the Yun-5 plane, Xiao Peng crawled out of the sleeping bag. Bruch was making coffee there. When he saw Xiao Peng, he handed him a cup of hot coffee.
"Thank you." Xiao Peng took the coffee and asked, "Where are we?"
Bruch said, "Boss, we're almost in Ukhta. Should we resupply and have some fun there before heading to Syktyvkar? Or should we go straight to Kotlas?"
Xiao Peng took a sip of coffee and said, "Take your time and play all the way there!"
Bruch turned and handed it to Kasin who was flying the plane in the cockpit.
Kasin took a sip of coffee and smiled bitterly, "Boss, even here, airplanes can't go any faster. This speed is basically the same as a car."
Xiao Peng laughed heartily after hearing this. "Don't you think our pace of life has been too fast in the past few years? Wouldn't it be nice to slow down now?"
Kasin said, "You're the boss, so I'll listen to you. Bruch, drive for a while. I'll stretch my legs. My bones are almost stiff!"
"Serves you right!" Bruch put on a fur coat and sat in the passenger seat. "I told you not to wear something thicker. Are all those fox fur coats Dudinka bought just for show? And you insisted on wearing a leather jacket."
Kasim blinked. "The point is, we look like nouveau riche when we dress like that!"
Bruh raised his middle finger. "We all became nouveau riche after meeting the boss, okay? You have to face reality!"
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "Yes, I'm also a nouveau riche. Think about what I used to be like. Don't care about what others think. Everyone in the world looks down on nouveau riche, but everyone wants to be one themselves. The reason they look down on nouveau riche is simply because they themselves are not nouveau riche."
At this time, Vera also came over. She held a white fox fur coat in her hand and put it on Xiao Peng: "Don't get cold after just getting up."
Xiao Peng hummed, "Thank you!"
Rosa laughed and said, "Xiao, you lied to us that you were crew members. You guys don't look like crew members at all!"
Kasin said, "We are indeed all crew members. We'll be able to see our ship when we arrive in St. Petersburg. Boss, what are we doing in St. Petersburg this time? Why is the 'New Calypso' going there too?"
Xiao Peng lit a cigarette and said, "This time we have a difficult and big job."
"What big job?" Kasim asked puzzledly.
Xiao Peng explained, "We need to go to the 'Road of Life' to find four trucks! They've been searching for them for seventy or eighty years, from the former Soviet Union to Russia, and they can't find them. Now they need our help."
