After a week at the Arctic camp of FM mining group, a boat with two battery packs arrived.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
Once the chief engineer changed The Hammerhead Shark's battery pack, the icebreaker's propellers finally began to turn again, and the sea steel beast was back to life.
Thus, Li Du and the others set out on their way back. Li Du had been at the Arctic long enough and didn't want to stay any longer.
He knew how Dunford felt. He had been here on and off for two years and it was just too much.
Therefore, before he left, he promised Dunford again that when he saw the Ford brothers he would put in a good word for Dunford and try to get him transferred.
The tears in Dunford's eyes showed the extent of his gratitude.
He was even worse off than the regular workers, who would be paid similarly by any mining company and did not have much to lose by leaving.
However, Dunford had already been promoted to the position of general manager of the station, and if he resigned, it would be difficult for him to find a job that would match his current salary and position, given the global mining downturn and a large number of managers waiting to be hired.
The rest of the trip went smoothly until they reached the south of the Arctic Ocean, all the way to Komsomolets Island, where Li Du returned the icebreaker to Bobby Blodwen.
Master Blodwen, who was stoking the fire, looked surprised when he heard that his ship had come back. ”They really returned it?”
The voice on the phone said, ”It's on the dock, boss. I'm on my way right now.”
”I'll be right there,” Blodwen jumped into the car in a hurry.
After the loss of his helicopter and icebreaker, Bobby's brother scolded him harshly and he was afraid that the helicopter and the ship would not come back.
The money was a small matter; the big thing was that the helicopter and the ship did not belong to the family. The Blodwens had borrowed them from a rich man in Russia.
If the rich man's helicopter and ship were lost, he might not demand monetary compensation, but it would put a damper on the Blodwen family's friendship with the rich man, which was more important than money.
The Blodwens had money, but their position in society had been bought with hard work and time, which no money could buy.
Bobby Blodwen arrived at the dock, where The Hammerhead Shark was standing undamaged, and saw Li Du unloading his cargo.
Seeing Bobby Boldwen, Li Du smiled. ”I cleaned the boat for you. There's nothing left on it.”
Bobby Blodwen glanced at him as he clambered aboard the ship. He went to the cabin and saw that the GPS and digital maps had been removed, leaving two holes in the cabin wall.
This made him so angry that he rushed down and shouted, ”What do you mean? Did you wreck my ship?”
Li Du said with a smile, ”Don't accuse me. I did not destroy it, I even helped you change the new battery pack transformer system.”
”What about the GPS and digital maps?”
Li Du said, ”Can't you sail the ship without those?”
Bobby Blodwen said coldly, ”It's none of your business. These things belong to the ship, they belong to me, and it's against the law for you to steal them!”
Li Du said, ”See, you are accusing me again. I did not steal them, they accidentally fell into the sea.”
The ship's chief officer smiled sadly beside him and said, ”Sir, it's true. Those two instruments are in the water.”
Bobby Blodwen's face darkened.
