SFS Chapter 222 Unable to Return
Chapter 222 Unable to Return
"Whose child is this? He's so noisy..."
"I heard this right after I went out to sea. What bad luck..."
The child's crying, which was getting louder and louder, made everyone unhappy, and it seemed that the beautiful scenery before them had lost its color.
But Song An Ning didn't think so. The child in front of her looked about two or three years old. His round little face was covered with tears and his eyes were filled with deep fear.
She had heard in her previous life that children's ability to sense danger was much stronger than adults. Considering all the strange things that had happened before, it was either a natural disaster or a man-made disaster.
So she pretended to be annoyed and said, "Whose child is this? Is there anyone to take care of him? I've lost all my mood for fishing."
After she said this, many people echoed loudly, and the deck became more and more chaotic. The child's mother bowed to everyone apologetically.
"I'm sorry everyone, my child just woke up and has never seen so many strangers before. He might be scared."
"Just woke up? Did this child dream of something unclean? They say children can see things that adults can't. Could there be something wrong with this ship?"
The woman only said that one sentence, and Song An Ning immediately responded.
To be honest, she was a little reluctant to participate in the sea fishing competition in the afternoon.
She had a magic weapon and could save her own life, but what about the others? They were all living lives. If something happened, there would definitely be casualties. She wanted to do her best to nip this danger in the bud. If she could return home, that would be the best.
Everyone on this ship is from a wealthy family. The richer they are, the more they value their lives and the more they believe in these things.
After hearing Song Anning's doubts, they all agreed.
"Forget about the kids. I'm also worried. The sea is so deep that I can't see the bottom. If something happens, I won't even have a place to stay..."
"Husband, why don't we go back? The children are still waiting at home..."
After hearing what his master said, Chen Guanghui also whispered to Xiao Yao and discussed that there was indeed something strange about this competition. He was not smart, but he was not blind either.
“Master, we have so many children with us, why don’t we go back as well.
It's just a competition. If you lose your life, it will be a waste of time."
At this time, many families had discussed and were ready to go back. The ship was in chaos.
"Boss? Where is the boss? This young master wants to go back..."
"Let's return first. We won't participate in this competition."
"..."
"Master, the boss is in the cabin, peeking through the crack in the door. He clearly heard everything but he didn't come out. What a coward!"
The action of the person in charge further confirmed that this voyage was unusual. If he stayed in it for a moment longer, the boat would go further. If he dragged it for a while longer, the boat would soon reach the deep sea.
"What's going on? Where are your people in charge? Are they all deaf? Can't they hear me telling you to return?"
A young man in his early twenties pulled over a servant from the Chamber of Commerce and was very annoyed.
At first, some people didn't think it was a big deal, but when the head of the Chamber of Commerce took a long time to come out, they realized something was wrong and simply asked their servants to knock on the door.
The cabin door was only a thin layer, and it made a loud banging sound when it was slammed, and it felt like it would fall apart in the next second.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, the head of the Chamber of Commerce pretended to look sleepy and walked out slowly, still smiling.
"Oh, what happened? I got up too early today, so I took a nap inside.
Who has upset the nobles? If there is anything, let’s talk about it slowly…”
"Nothing much to say. I won't participate in the afternoon competition. Let's return home quickly."
"Yes, I won't participate either..."
"Oh, please don't make it difficult for me. The ship has come so far and is almost there. Why don't you join us?
Look everyone, the people in the boat behind have already started fishing. The competition has begun. If you want to go back, you have to wait until it’s over.”
"Stop the bullshit! It's not like I haven't participated before, and I could definitely return home. Why can't I do that this time?"
At this time, a servant said something in the master's ear. His expression did not change and he smiled very kindly.
"It turned out to be a child's dream talk. It's common for children to feel uncomfortable adapting to a new place of birth.
Although our boat is bigger, it's still a bit shaky. I'm afraid the child is seasick. Please don't worry about it, let's continue the competition."
There was no flattery in his tone, and it was even a little tough, especially the sentence that asked everyone to continue the competition, which was also full of unquestionableness.
This move made everyone extremely dissatisfied. He said he was in charge, but in fact he was just a servant hired by the Chamber of Commerce. Who gave him the courage to speak like this?
Chen Guanghui wanted to step forward to argue, but Song Anning quickly pulled him from behind.
It's no use saying anything now. Since boarding this boat, no, since participating in this competition, everyone has become a fish in the net.
After all this commotion, the ship not only didn't return, but its speed was even faster than before. Seeing this, everyone knew that it would be impossible for the ship to return today even if they shouted at the top of their lungs, so they could only leave with anger on their faces.
"This lousy Chamber of Commerce has reached its end. When I get back, I'll teach them a lesson!"
"Last year, someone fell ill suddenly, and the ship returned even after reaching the destination. Why is it not the same this year?
If you ask me, this boss surnamed Wei is totally useless, not as good as the previous one..."
"What? This person's surname is Wei?"
Song Anning, who was standing by, keenly caught what the man had just said and asked hurriedly, which made the people around him a little puzzled.
"Isn't the girl from Linhai Town? Then why is she on this ship?
This Chamber of Commerce changed its management three years ago and was renamed the First-Class Chamber of Commerce. We don't know who's behind it. This person named Wei only came here half a year ago. He's a kind person, but I didn't expect him to be so bad at his job.
"First-class Chamber of Commerce?"
When Song Anning heard the words "First-class Chamber of Commerce," her heart skipped a beat. "I understand. Now I understand everything..."
Wanhetang, Qianweilou, Baihuayuan, Yipin Chamber of Commerce...
There is still a ten left. I don’t know whether she is lucky or unlucky, but in more than a month, she has almost collected all of Ali’s property.
"Master, once you gather them all, you can summon an Ali. Hahaha..."
"..."
"Master Chen, aren't you two together? Hurry up and tell this girl about the Chamber of Commerce. It's so hot, I'm going back to the cabin to have some tea first."
The man knew that Song Anning and Chen Guanghui were together, so he just said this and left. Chen Guanghui was a little annoyed. It was his fault. He should have discussed these things with his master first.
"Master, you've seen it too. It's impossible to go back now. Let's go back to the cabin and rest for a while. I'd like to tell you about this Yipin Chamber of Commerce."
"it is good."
She asked Xiangxiang to look around and everything was normal. Song Anning then took the children back to the cabin and listened carefully to Chen Guanghui's narration.
"This first-class chamber of commerce in our town is quite powerful...
Please listen to me in detail..."
