Chapter 600: A New Harpoon

The losses of the cargo ship this time were truly too severe, but because these losses belonged to force majeure, the captain did not need to bear much responsibility.

However, the cargo ship had also reached the limit of its lifespan. Upon returning, he heard the captain mention that if he could successfully reach the destination this time, he would prepare to retire and spend his old age.

Perhaps the captain holding this party was also a farewell ceremony for himself; at the very least, it was better than seeing his frowning face.

"Alright, then I'll go over after I change my clothes. By the way, the harpoon at the stern seems to be lost, otherwise, I could add a few big fish to the banquet."

The captain smiled mysteriously: "I was just waiting for these words from you. Come quickly after changing your clothes."

Su Ye returned to the room and saw Xi Lin had already climbed out of bed. He casually took off the clothes on his body, revealing his strong and firm muscles, and discovered Xi Lin showing a shy expression.

He stepped forward and knocked on her little head: "What are you thinking? Didn't you hear just now? The captain is still waiting for us to hold the party!"

He reached out and patted her pretty bottom; the feel was quite good.

"Don't just stand there, hurry up and get out of bed!"

Xi Lin blushed and said shyly and angrily: "How can I get up if you don't let go!"

Su Ye hurriedly withdrew his large hand that was kneading and playing, ignored Xi Lin's fierce little glare, and turned to choose clothes.

He was secretly thinking in his heart that he would knead her into his own shape tonight.

Soon, the two changed their clothes. Men are silent and women are tearful—no, it should be handsome men and beautiful women.

As for why the speed was so fast, it was because the step of women putting on makeup was missing. Su Ye felt that a plain face was also quite beautiful; mainly because the conditions were difficult and there really wasn't any makeup. Actually, deep-sea pearl whitening was quite good, but one had to have it.

When Su Ye held Xi Lin's hand and arrived at the banquet deck, Su Ye was also full of admiration.

The collapse of the terminal building, along with the cargo crane on the cargo ship, was buried in the ruins. The containers scattered on the ship gave Su Ye a feeling of hitting a Sci-Fi transport ship.

The captain sent people to clean up a spot on the ship, but the vision of these people was also unique.

An open space surrounded by containers had containers blocking part of the sea breeze, but looking around, one could see the scenery of the sea surface.

Leaning against the containers, some musical instrument equipment was placed, and several large lights were placed on top of the containers for illumination. The electrician had also connected the wires to the cargo ship's auxiliary diesel engine.

In the middle of the venue, the chef's mobile cart had been moved over again, and several charcoal grills were placed in front.

Beside it were piled some wood that the captain didn't know where he got, and there was also a marching pot set up there. The rest were some scattered wine and other sundries.

Su Ye walked quickly to the captain's back, but with Old Qin's prior reminder, the captain had already turned around before Su Ye even walked over.

"Su, you finally came over. Oh, and our dignified little beauty!"

The captain's praise made Xi Lin shy, but she still thanked the captain gracefully.

Su Ye said: "Captain, the place you chose is really good. Blowing the evening breeze here, with soft lights sprinkled down, tasting fine wine and eating barbecue, it really has a sense of being unfettered! I think you could renovate a sea restaurant!"

The captain fell silent for a moment and said with some disappointment:

"Su, you know that I'm preparing to retire after going back this time. My savings no longer allow me to drift on the sea!"

Who knew that Old Qin would not give any face at all and said directly:

"Old Pi, just say you don't have money to buy another ship. Besides, now that we are old, we are no longer suitable for that kind of drifting life on the sea. Returning to land and being down-to-earth is also not bad."

Hearing his old friend's teasing, the captain also laughed and scolded, but he knew he was trying to enlighten him.

Su Ye knew the captain had misunderstood, so he explained:

"I'm talking about the kind of restaurant docked at the port. Actually, there are many people who like to hunt for novelty. You can also record some interesting things about the voyage on the ship. Actually, there are many successful precedents for this kind of restaurant."

After listening to Su Ye's words, the captain scratched his scalp and thought about the feasibility of this matter.

Old Qin's eyes lit up, and he poked the captain with his elbow:

"Old Pi, I think this method of Su's is indeed quite feasible. We can try it!"

The captain came back to his senses, looked at Su Ye and said: "Su, thank you really! I need to think about this matter carefully.

Let's start the banquet now, but you need to help with the ingredients, Su!"

Looking at Su Ye's puzzled expression, the captain smiled mysteriously and turned to leave.

Su Ye looked at Old Qin suspiciously, but Old Qin also smiled faintly.

After a while, the captain ran over dragging a harpoon.

"Su, I specifically asked the craftsman on the ship to forge a harpoon for you under the high temperature of the boiler. Whether we can eat fish tonight depends on you."

Su Ye stared blankly at the harpoon in the captain's hand, looked up again at the shy smile on the captain's face.

He took the newly forged harpoon from the captain's hand in a daze. There were still some unpolished burrs on it. Although it was a bit rough, it was strong enough. ===== CHAPTER 602 =====
