The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer
Chapter 329: Frightened
Zhang Nan had seen all the crew's information in New York before. Although this is the first time I have seen this real person, it doesn't feel very strange.
Two of the people on the boat also recognized Zhang Nan, and the others knew that the boss was a Chinese American: they actually noticed the two off-road vehicles on the dock just now and knew those who should be the boss.
I knew before that the boss would come and have a look after the yacht docked. When I saw a total of 8 people got off the car, seven men and one woman, three Asian faces. At a glance, the six sturdy bodyguards concealed a man and a woman in the middle. Everyone knew that the boss was here!
Just like the commander boarding a warship, a sailor stands on the side of the gangway pier, and all the other crew members line up on the main deck on the first floor to welcome those on board.
Lin Ming and Thomas got on the boat first, then Zhang Nan and Jenny, followed by Guan Xingquan and Alyosha.
"Welcome on board, Mr. Allen!"
When Zhang Nan boarded the ship, the captain gave Zhang Nan a salute to Zhang Nan.
Shaking the captain's hand, "Hello, Mr. Richard Phillips, we finally meet."
Very interesting. It seems that there is a captain hijacked by Somali pirates in his memory called this name, but according to his age, he is unlikely to be the one in front of him: this Richard is 55 years old this year. When the Somali pirates are rampant, he is probably already Go home for the elderly.
The captain and chief mate of the "Sunshine Star" had long known who the owner and the person who paid him a high salary were, and they had seen Zhang Nan's photos, so they recognized themselves.
Captain Philip is a New Yorker who lives on Long Island and is only about six or seven kilometers away from Zhang Nan’s manor: Mr. Captain was qualified as a captain for ships of 3000 gross tonnage and above in the unlimited navigation area 15 years ago, and previously served as a cruise company. The captain of a 10,000-ton cruise ship.
One year ago, I was recuperating at home due to a car accident for more than half a year, but now I was hired by a headhunting company with a high salary: I don’t want to stay at sea for more than half a year and become a super private yacht with its home port at the doorstep. The captain of Philip is obviously a good choice for Philip.
A few words of greeting, now it's up to Mr. Captain to introduce the other crew and service personnel on board.
The chief mate is called Jamie Bostwijk, who is only 35 years old this year. He is actually a "overkill" as the chief mate: he had five years of senior mate qualifications in ocean-going vessels. He also passed the qualification for ships of 3000 gross tonnage and above last summer. Qualifications of the captain.
However, qualifications are qualifications. If you want to be the captain of an ordinary mail ship of several thousand tons or a larger cargo ship, you may have to apply and wait. It is also a very good choice to be the first officer of the "Sunshine Star".
And Bostwick’s home is also on Long Island, New York, to the west of Oysbet Town. The community is relatively “near”. It is a middle-class community, about 15 kilometers away from Zhang Nan’s manor and only 20 minutes at most. By car.
Moreover, the trestle bridge of the manor is just a stopping point. The home port of "Sunshine Star" is located in Oysbet, a few kilometers to the west, which leads to the fact that Mr. Bobstvik can ride a bicycle to the marina. The chief mate's house is only ten kilometers from the dock.
After introducing the chief mate of the yacht, Jamie Bostwick said to Zhang Nan: "Mr. Allen, just call me Jamie."
Zhang Nan smiled and said, "Okay, Jamie."
It can be seen that Mr. Captain is relatively stable, while the young chief mate is much more cheerful.
I also introduced the other crew members and service personnel, so that we all know each other.
If it is a large cruise ship, the positions of these people on the ship will be divided very carefully, and senior seafarers will be divided into management level and operation level:
The management level includes captain, chief engineer, chief mate, and chief officer. These are the management level, and the operation level is second officer, second officer, third officer, and third officer;
Ordinary seamen are sailors, captains, one water, two waters, machinists, chefs...
However, the "Sunshine Star" has advanced facilities, with only 13 crew members, not even a second mate, and there is no such thing as a big wheel tube or a second wheel tube.
There is a sailor, a strong man named Lopez Cuenca, nearly 40 years old, a senior sailor, and a background in the United States Navy. The captain on a work boat originally owned by Thomas' security company, who had a good relationship with Thomas, was dug up.
To put it bluntly, except for the service personnel on the yacht, the captain and the chief mate, all the other crew members are more or less related to the security company—there is one of the requirements for that headhunting company that is not mandatory.
According to custom, under the leadership of the captain, Zhang Nan and Jenny visited the yacht in its current state: the shipyard modified the entire ship according to its own requirements.
Very satisfied, luxurious and practical!
Sitting in the huge lounge room, opposite Zhang Nan sat the captain, chief mate, and sailor, with Xiang Weirong, Thomas and Alyosha next to him.
He took a glass of champagne handed over by the waiter, took a shallow sip, put the glass on the side table, and said: "I will take a batch of goods this trip. It weighs about 150 to 160 tons. My ship has no problem?"
When Captain Philip heard it, he didn't ask what he was going to bring, but said: "If it is a cargo of general specific gravity, volume and size, there should be no problem, it may affect the comfort of the guests."
"Comfort is not a problem. Apart from me, Jenny and my brother-in-law, the rest are my security personnel."
"Then there is no problem at all, but it is best that Kunca and I can look at the types of goods first and make a counterweight plan in advance."
"No problem, we will go to ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the captain will leave the ship, because this is at a foreign port, the chief mate will stay on the ship. The counterweight is required because the ship must be loaded before loading. The counterweight plan, otherwise, it will be dangerous if it gets top-heavy and the starboard and starboard are uneven.
Unexpected navigation accidents due to problems with the counterweight have been counted throughout the ages.
This counterweight plan is calculated by specialized personnel on large cargo ships, and the captain and chief mate must also know how to call the "ordinary crew member" the captain, because the captain will play a big role when loading the cargo.
The sailor said that he is an ordinary crew member, but in fact it is very important on any ship!
On some smaller ships, the counterweight calculation is the responsibility of the sailor: Captain Richard has known his men very well in the past few months, knowing that Captain Cuenca is an all-rounder, he is called on.
As for what kind of goods the boss is going to transport, Philip doesn't even ask about it: even if it is 150 tons of bombs and poisons, he won't bother---high salary is not something anyone can get!
Half an hour later, Philip saw what was going to be transported in the warehouse: the first batch had been put in the truck.
Lin Ming moved a small box wrapped in a cloth bag and said, "These boxes are about ten tons, each weighing more than 21 kilograms."
Philip was taken aback, he had already guessed what was probably here.
