At three in the morning, Head Brother had already been standing outside for over half an hour. Shi Tian and the others were returning to Sanya today and would swing by to deliver supplies in the middle of the night, leaving him waiting here for an hour.
The Air Force was scheduled to return before dawn, but knowing that Head Brother would have to hold his position on the platform for more than ten days, Shi Tian decided to bring him some supplies.
The Sugar-Coated Bombshell operation couldn't stop; victory was within reach, and it was crucial to be extra careful at this time!
Xiao Yu had arrived! Shi Tian gave a light nudge to Kang Ziyu, who was curled up asleep like a little kitten, and gazed at the brightly lit platform in the distance.
Woken by Shi Tian, Kang Ziyu rubbed his eyes and glanced at the platform. Head Brother was already impatiently boarding a small boat, preparing to come over.
"Is my brother getting on the boat? I’ll hide in the restroom for a bit. When he arrives, I’ll give him the stuff and quickly send him back!" Upon seeing Head Brother, Kang Ziyu immediately woke up and turned to dash into the restroom.
"Aren't you going to see Head Brother?" Watching Kang Ziyu stumble around, Shi Tian wondered if he was still half asleep.
"No way! Last time he tricked you! And you’re still kind enough to bring him wine! You should have mixed half a bottle of water into it!" With that, Kang Ziyu had already run back to his room.
Kang Ziyu really held grudges. The first time they met, he was like Head Brother's shadow. Now, not long after, he was avoiding him!
With a smirk, Shi Tian slowed down as Head Brother's small boat had already reached the Stern!
"Why didn’t you guys from Xisha come pick me up?" As soon as he boarded, Head Brother complained to Shi Tian. After pacing around the cabin with a frown, he asked, "Didn't September and Eleven come with you?"
He wanted to ask Kang Ziyu but thought it best not to mention his name in front of Shi Tian. Kang Ziyu spent every day with September and Eleven; if Kang Ziyu was on board, they would surely be too!
"Don’t look for me; ask Jun Ge. He’s the one piloting the boat!"
Passing the blame onto Air Force, Shi Tian handed two bottles of wine into Head Brother's arms. "September and Eleven are busy running their shop; business has been good lately. They don’t have time for Xisha!"
"They're coming back tonight because Jun Ge is driving the boat! I stayed up all night just to bring you these supplies! Hurry up and get off the boat! We need to head back before dawn!"
With the wine delivered, Shi Tian opened his mouth to hurry him along. Kang Ziyu was still hiding in his room! If they didn’t get Head Brother off the boat soon, Kang Ziyu might end up squatting in the restroom until his legs went numb!
It was already past three; even at top speed, it would take nearly two hours to return from here. Time was indeed tight!
"Don’t rush! There are some fish on the platform for you to take back as gifts for New Year’s. I’ve already had someone pack them up; just steer the boat over. There’s a crane on the platform that can lift them onto your aft deck!"
Setting aside the two bottles of wine, Head Brother grabbed a walkie-talkie and shouted something before directing Shi Tian to slowly approach the platform.
At this moment, the crane on the platform had already started working. The long arm was typically used for loading and unloading supplies! Using it now to lift fish onto Air Force seemed like overkill!
Well then, since so many people were helping out, those two bottles of wine were definitely not going to fit. After receiving a pile of fish, he steered away from the platform and returned to his room to grab another two bottles of wine and two packs of cigarettes along with two rods prepared for Head Brother before heading back onto the Stern's deck.
Helping Head Brother get the fish into the Ice Chamber, Shi Tian closed the door and reminded him: "Brother, I brought you a rod and two packs of cigarettes. We’re in a hurry so I won’t keep you any longer; remember to call me when you get ashore!"
Despite it being late at night, the temperature wasn’t low at all. With so many fish laid out on deck, by the time they got back to Sanya, those fish would likely have thawed completely.
Once frozen fish is thawed and then refrozen, its taste changes completely. Not to mention eating it, even feeding it to Tang Tang would likely result in a disdainful glance! Once we’re ashore, I’ll find you! After casually agreeing, Head Brother didn’t rush onto the small boat. Instead, he began moving the unused Xia Zhuang from Xisha out of the way, loading box after box onto the small boat. He then turned and headed back into the kitchen, packing up all the ingredients and feed from the refrigerator before finally carrying everything away.
Watching Head Brother’s retreating figure, Shi Tian couldn’t help but smile wryly; they were really running low on supplies up there! While they certainly wouldn’t run out completely, being stuck in this hundred-and-some-square-foot space for dozens of days made life on stage seem quite tough as well!
Taking advantage of the fact that a few people hadn’t gotten up yet, he pulled out his phone and exchanged a thousand Wan Ji points, starting with redeeming the production process for Carbon Line! After spending a thousand Wan Ji points without even hearing a sound, he was relieved to see a prompt on the interface indicating that he could self-pick up the rewards from his small workshop. Then came an upgrade notification—his Small Tackle Box was about to upgrade again.
This time, the upgrade didn’t require Points; just a bit of material was needed. It felt a bit like Rogue Software’s style. No matter; he needed to hurry back to Sanya! With this little setback, he’d have to get some feed for the old men later on and tighten his belt for quite some time!
The weather was cold, and fewer people were fishing, which meant fewer Points were being accumulated! But when spring arrived and flowers bloomed, all hardships would pay off; then he could indulge again!
As they departed, Air Force gradually picked up speed. Kang Ziyu walked out of her room but was quickly sent back by Shi Tian. He had already kept her company through the night; with just this last stretch of road left, it was unnecessary for Kang Ziyu to stay with him any longer.
