Insufficient balance
Liu Xiangyang was shocked, just at noon he was still jumping around, and in just half a day's time it had come to this? Although he had caught a chill, surely a fever wasn't anything serious. But when they entered the cabin and took a look, it really did seem like the end. The big bearded man's whole body was burning hot, his lips were white, and he was unconscious, not responding even when called.
Liu Xiangyang looked at the big beard and pondered for a moment, then ran to the cargo hold, found "Compound Sulfanilamide" from a large pile of packages, opened the package, took out a bottle, and ran back to the cabin. Let Liu Dagui support the big beard to sit up, and feed him 2 tablets of medicine with a buckle and a lever.
After dinner, Liu Ye, also known as Liu Xiangyang, had Liu Dagui and David sleep in the same cabin, and at the same time, take a look at how Big Beard reacted. As a result, in the middle of the night, Liu Ye was woken up by Liu Dagui himself. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Liu Dagui's appearance and thought that Big Beard had hung up. But it turned out to be the opposite, Big Beard woke up, and Liu Dagui wanted to get him something to eat, but didn't know how to open the kitchen door, so he came to find Third Master.
The patient's meal was 2 bags of instant noodles, but they weren't soaked, they were boiled. He also made 2 poached eggs. The big beard was covered in sweat from head to toe, and he sat on the bed and quickly ate everything clean. Then he looked at his son sleeping soundly in the cradle and fell asleep contentedly.
It seems that my medicine is taking effect, and it's very effective, basically it's immediate. Looking at the big beard sleeping soundly, Third Master finally found a business to do, selling medicine! There are 4000 boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs in the cabin, in this era, it seems that there is no anti-inflammatory drug yet, what pneumonia, cold fever, diarrhea, sexually transmitted diseases, external injuries and infections can all take a person's life. If there was anti-inflammatory medicine, many illnesses would be cured with just one dose. In my previous life, I read on the internet that in this era, bacteria and viruses have no antibiotic resistance, so if they encounter anti-inflammatory drugs, it's game over for them.
"We're rich... We're rich..." Comrade Liu Mo couldn't sleep, holding his phone to calculate the number of anti-inflammatory pills. One bottle had 50 tablets, one box had 2 bottles, and one case had 100 boxes, totaling 4 cases. Adding his own estimate, ordinary fever, diarrhea, etc., would basically be cured with just one pill, while pneumonia, venereal diseases, and external injuries would likely require three pills to take effect. How much money could these 40 million anti-inflammatory pills sell for? San Shao's eyes had turned into coins.
"Silver... Ah, I've never actually seen silver before. How much is this Qing dynasty silver worth? How many silvers should I sell my medicine for per piece? I'll have to ask Da Gui tomorrow." The Third Young Master Liu Ye Liu Xiangyang comrade tossed and turned on the bed until dawn, then fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, Da Gui appeared in the driver's cabin with Big Beard, who was holding a child and kneeling on one knee to express his gratitude to Third Master. Third Master didn't waste any of it and accepted all the thanks with a smile. Since he had crossed over into the Qing Dynasty, why be polite?
Two people chatted in English for a while, and Third Master basically understood the origin and current era of this bearded man. It is now April 1886, the bearded man's full name is David Wulberg, 27 years old, the youngest son of a small aristocratic family in England. Due to his debts from gambling at home, he fled to the Far East to join the army, relying on his father's connections with friends in the Far Eastern Fleet. In recent years, he has been doing quite well, serving as the first mate of an auxiliary ship, marrying the captain's daughter and having a son.
This time David was on vacation, originally planning to take his wife and son to Hong Kong to change ships and return to the UK to visit relatives. As a result of encountering a maritime disaster, not only is his wife's life uncertain, but it's likely that his father-in-law has become fish food. If he hadn't met Liu Xiangyang, they would have all been killed.
David thanked Liu Daguai again, who had already prepared breakfast, of course, instant noodles. Daguai was very fond of this stuff and, with the permission of San Shao Ye, used the newly learned electric stove to cook a large pot of instant noodles and even stir-fried a plate of scallion omelets, which were quite well-made. The three big men had a satisfying meal, and Daguai cleaned up the table, then poured a pot of flower tea for San Shao Ye and sat quietly on one side, listening to San Shao Ye and Mr. David's conversation.
Although Da Gui was certain that the person in front of him was his Third Master, after being apart for a day, the current Third Master and the previous one were completely different except for their appearance and accent. Moreover, this large iron ship and the kitchen's crystal brick made Da Gui feel as if he had entered the Grand View Garden. Watching Third Master and David chatting happily in a language he couldn't understand, Da Gui thought he should remind Third Master: wasn't it time to go home? The old master was still waiting in Taiwan.
Upon hearing Liu Dagu's reminder, Liu Ye and David also felt that this was the most pressing issue to be solved at present. No matter how delicious instant noodles were, they couldn't be eaten for a lifetime; no matter how good the big iron boat was, it couldn't be used as a home. However, to solve this problem, they first needed to determine their current location. Liu Ye had never used the GPS on the ship before; he had only used his mobile phone and car GPS, but it should be similar. Although there was no satellite signal, the previously stored information could still be used because this was an ocean-going fishing boat, so there was quite a lot of stored information.
After messing around for half a day, I finally roughly understood that the current location displayed on the GPS is approximately in the northern waters of Taiwan, with Fuzhou City to the west, not far from Taiwan. Liu Dagu said that the destination before the ship sank was Danshui Port in Taiwan, and there is Danshui Port on the GPS, just south of the current location, slightly west. Liu Mo tried to set the route, but was afraid it wasn't safe, and just as he was about to turn back to ask David for directions, he saw two big green eyes staring blankly at the GPS screen in front of him.
Professional is professional, David leaned on the small table, staring at the 2011 version of the sea chart found by Liu Fei for ten minutes, and came to the first professional conclusion: The person who drew this sea chart should be the commander of the Beiyang Fleet. Then, according to the current position as the starting point, he also drew a route on the sea chart.
The host was launched, and as the ship slowly started to move, David's eyes widened again. Originally, David was the most qualified to be the helmsman and navigator, but Liu Fei, as the owner of the ship, directly deprived David of his qualification as a helmsman and took over himself, hugging the steering wheel tightly. David stood at the door of the driving cabin with an alarm clock, facing the sun, saying that he could measure the direction of navigation.
Third Master Liu Mou held the steering wheel and stared at the GPS for more than half an hour, finally discovering that although the GPS map had no satellite signal, navigation was impossible, and he could only drive in the general direction according to David's command. After driving for another half hour, a single-masted sailboat appeared on the sea surface ahead, but due to the distance being too far, it was also unclear what was happening on the boat.
David said they should be close to land, as this type of single-masted sailboat usually sailed in coastal waters. Upon hearing that they were not far from Taiwan, Dawei also became excited, grabbing the binoculars that San Ye had given him to play with and running outside the driving cabin to look around everywhere. Liu Fei felt a bit nervous, thinking that he would soon be entering Qing Dynasty society, and couldn't help but feel both afraid and excited. To increase safety, Liu Fei called David and Dawei into the driving cabin and held an airing meeting. The main content of the meeting was to use intimidation, temptation, righteousness, and gratitude to get Dawei and David to agree to follow him in telling lies. He also fabricated a touching story about encountering a storm at sea, sinking the ship, and being rescued by David, who then sent them back to Taiwan with gifts. In the story, the boat and goods all belonged to David.
Daiyu first supported the story of his own Third Young Master with action, because he had been following Third Young Master since childhood, and if Third Young Master had a problem, he would be the first to suffer; Dawei, despite having many doubts about this son of the Taiwan governor who had saved his father and son's lives, not only agreed to fabricate a story together but also patted his chest and swore that if there was danger, he could guarantee Liu Fei's safety with his identity as a British officer and was willing to take Liu Fei back to Britain.
Third Master asked Liu Da Gui and David various questions to test the perfection of his story, while secretly thinking that people at this time really have principles, and it's really easy to cheat.
