Chapter 119 Overseas Inspection (6)

"I think this is not just your opinion, other people should also have similar opinions." Wang Tom obviously has a full understanding of this: "This is not surprising, we have been in different places before traveling through time.

Living in a social environment, the cultural concepts we are exposed to are also different, and our views on things will naturally be different. But I think this is just because we lack enough communication and understanding. If everyone can understand each other's thoughts, we can avoid many unnecessary

misunderstanding."

"It's not just that." Xie Chun, who was still drunk, continued to shake his head. I don't know whether his action was conscious or unconscious: "Let me ask you, why did you choose to participate in time travel? What is your starting point?

?”

Tom Wang shrugged and said: "I can't say what other people think casually, but I have determined to be the king of navigation a long time ago. This goal obviously cannot be achieved in the 21st century, so when I heard that

Given the opportunity to rewrite history in space and time four hundred years ago, I signed up without hesitation."

Xie Chun nodded and said: "I just talked to a few of them. Roger and Shi Diwen said they wanted to change their careers to become generals, but in the original time and space, it would take at least thirty years to join the army and become a general.

, they didn’t want to wait so long. Georgia said that he wanted to replace Dalton, Lavoisier and Mendeleev and become the father of chemistry in the eyes of future generations. The purpose of the strange bearded Johnson was actually to make his

The two daughters will not be harmed by school violence and drugs in the future. This ghost father and daughter are accused... As for old Morgan, I know that you friends don't want him to stay alone in another time and space, so you called him.

Together. Is everything I said correct?"

"Hey, friend, I'm not as pitiful as you said!" At some point, Morgan had walked behind Xie Chun and happened to hear him rant. He stretched out his hand and slapped Xie Chun on the shoulder. It was difficult to hold back.

Xie Chun's mouth immediately became crooked.

"I am only forty-four years old this year, and there is still a lot that I can do." Morgan raised his hand and let go of Xie Chun, sitting down next to him: "You want to ask me why? What other reason can be compared to a world

Are you waiting for me to conquer something better?"

Xie Chun rubbed the shoulder that was so painful from being slapped by Morgan, and said with a groan: "That's the problem. Your basic starting point is to change the environment and live a more exciting life.

"

Wang Tom didn't know what he meant and said, "What's wrong with this?"

"Do you know why I participated in time travel?" Xie Chun picked up the glass and took a sip of whiskey, and then said: "I have worked in many industries before, but I have been working for many years without making any decent results, and I kept changing jobs.

I jumped from job to job, but in the end I was inexplicably blamed for being fired by my employer... Do you know how I feel? Just three words, unwilling! I am not willing to live in such a mediocre way for the rest of my life, no.

Be willing to be a little person who has been struggling at the bottom of society!"

Tom Wang nodded and comforted: "You are in a similar situation to Tian Yeyou. He also said that he no longer wants to be a geologist who can only stay in the barren mountains all year round, but he is unable to change his situation, so

That’s why I chose to participate in time travel.”

"It's not that he looks like me or I look like him, but that most of the people in this group are like this, and they came to participate in the time travel with an unwillingness to do so." Xie Chun looked into the air and slowly said

He said: "For those of us, this is not just a one-way trip to seek excitement, but more importantly, to seize the opportunity to change our lives. I think you probably also know that in this group, people like Mr. Tao and Mr. Bai

There are very few successful people like you, not even high-income people like you, and most of the members who participate in time travel are just ordinary people who are unwilling to accept the status quo."

"This is normal, young people. People who play the role of successful people in society will not change their position so easily. Although time travel is exciting, for most people, the stable life in front of them is better." Morgan listened.

At this point, I also joined the discussion, and slowly expressed my meaning in Chinese that I was not very proficient in: "I understand what you want to express. You feel that you were losers in the time and space before traveling, so you came to this world.

Later, you hope to succeed even more, so while you regard each other as companions, you also look at each other with the eyes of competitors. In this way, we outsiders will seem out of place in this atmosphere, right?

"

"Brother, you are right!" Xie Chun nodded heavily and said: "Look, among our group, those who had successful careers before time travel have basically become members of the executive committee or heads of various departments. They are preparing

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this. If most ordinary people want to get a promotion path, they must face the pressure of competition. Of course, compared with the previous social environment, the competition now is much smaller, at best.

There are only a few hundred people, but because of this, the competitors have become more clear, and that is these companions we see every day."

"The joining of a few of us has obviously changed this competitive situation." Wang Tom continued Xie Chun's words: "We have been reused by the executive committee since we joined, and our participation is indispensable in almost all important tasks.

, this will certainly put a lot of pressure on other people in the group who are competitive.”

"Yes, not everyone has the opportunity to get to know you, and there will even be some people who don't like you." Xie Chun licked his lips, and finally said as if he had made up his mind: "When the Shipping Department trains crew members, every time

When I encounter you doing acrobatics on two boats at sea, the entire crew of the boat will yell at you, and I will be the one who yells the hardest!"

Tom Wang was stunned at first, and then he and Morgan burst into laughter, causing several team members not far away who were putting the sambar legs on the charcoal fire for barbecue to look over.

"Friends, we don't actually mean any harm. This is just a special way for veterans to say hello to rookies." Wang Tom said with a smile: "Okay, although it's a little late, I still represent my partners to my colleagues in the shipping department.

Apologize."

"Of course there is me." Morgan also raised his hand and said: "But next time we encounter a training ship at sea, we will still do this!"

Tom Wang and Morgan laughed and high-fived each other, and it was obvious that they had no intention of repenting. Xie Chun was surprised to find that he was not angry this time, but instead laughed involuntarily along with them.

The barbecue that night lasted until late at night. Members including Xie Chun gradually felt that these people in the North American Gang were not so difficult to get along with. Although they did not speak fluent Chinese with a strong foreigner accent, basically this was the case.

These guys are relatively simple people, and after getting along with them, you will find that they don't have any complicated thoughts.

When Xie Chun saw Tom Wang the next morning, he was still a little embarrassed: "I drank a little too much yesterday and my words didn't go through my brain very well. If you say something wrong, don't worry too much."

Wang Tom smiled and said: "No, no, it was good yesterday. I think we should find more opportunities to communicate like this in the future. I discussed it with Morgan last night and we can hold some outdoor events from time to time in the future.

It’s a barbecue-type gathering, where everyone drinks and chats together like yesterday to enhance mutual understanding.”

Xie Chun looked at Tom Wang suspiciously and said, "Only Johnson among you is married, you... aren't all gay, are you?"

"I'll leave this question to you to figure it out yourself!" Wang Tom patted Xie Chun on the shoulder and said, "Remember to bring your own soap!"

Xie Chun felt a chill and shook his body, forcing himself not to think about the scene of a group of grown men playing shirtless and chasing each other on the beach.

After yesterday's hunting activities and barbecue party, the mental state of the team members has been obviously improved, and almost everyone smiled and greeted the crew members of the North American Gang when they boarded the ship. It seems that these two activities were held

It has indeed shortened the distance a lot.

Today is the sixth day of the inspection operation. The inspection team's goal is very clear, which is another large mining area located east of the inspection area of ​​the previous two days.

From a geographical point of view, the main mining area of ​​Hongji Coal Mine is divided into two parts. One is the western mining area where the expedition team completed the field survey two days ago, and the other part is blocked by several kilometers of mountainous areas on land.

Eastern mining area. Regardless of the mining area or coal reserves, there is not much difference between the two mining areas. The eastern mining area is also the focus of this inspection.

Although the two places are only about ten kilometers apart in a straight line from the map, the expedition team needs to make a big detour on the sea to get there, and it needs to find the most suitable channel among the dense offshore islands and reefs.

Fortunately, the weather was fine today, and the voyage was smooth sailing. Two hours later, we arrived at the seaside location where Cam Phuc City in Vietnam would later be located.

After traveling in circles along the coast for more than an hour, the expedition team arrived at the key investigation location they had previously found on satellite images.

The coal mining site here is only about one kilometer away from the east coast. The crew measured the water depth along the coast here, and the data obtained were very satisfactory. The average depth reached more than nine meters. Even the 10,000-ton ships of later generations were

It is possible to berth here. In fact, the most important task of Jinpu Cargo Terminal in later generations is to berth large and small coal ships heading to China. Most of the coal imported from Vietnam to China is here in Jinpu.

shipment.

The later cargo terminal was built at the southeastern corner of Jinpu near the sea. The sea area here is very open, with enough space to accommodate multiple 10,000-ton cargo ships. However, the place that the expedition team was interested in was east of Jinpu.

The shore is a little closer inland.
