Chapter 4283 Several questions

Zhang Yu smoked himself, while the waiter poured juice for everyone. Before pouring, he would ask each other which kind to drink. People here are casual, and Nini doesn’t understand them, so she can only look at Zhang Yu. Zhang Yu said that he should pour watermelon juice for Nini to taste first.

After the first glass of juice was poured, the waiter left. After leaving, he closed the door.

Nini looked at the pink watermelon juice in the cup and didn't know what it was, let alone what Zhang Yu was doing now.

Zhang Yu naturally noticed her confusion, picked up the water glass, showed Nini a demonstration, and took a sip of juice first. When Nini saw this, she understood and picked up the juice and took a sip.

Nini lives on the island all year round. At best, she can eat some wild fruits on the island. She has never even seen what a watermelon looks like, let alone watermelon juice.

She followed Zhang Yu's example and took a sip of watermelon juice. The watermelon juice was ice-cold, so it tasted delicious. After only one sip, she almost screamed with excitement, and drank up the entire glass of watermelon juice in three sips.

Nini was obviously still unsatisfied, staring at the bottle of watermelon juice, but she didn't dare to take it.

Zhang Yu took the bottle and poured another glass for Nini. Nini looked happy and drank another glass immediately.

The actions of the two really puzzled Shao Weiping and Pei Qinglan. Especially Pei Qinglan, he had already discovered that Zhang Yu and Nini had never communicated verbally, all they had was gestures.

So, Pei Qinglan asked deliberately: "Master Zhang, I don't know who this friend is..."

"She is an Indian who I know well here. Having her by my side has given me some understanding of the situation here." Zhang Yu did not lie and said truthfully.

Because anyone can see that Nini is just a country bumpkin. She gets so excited when she drinks watermelon juice, as if she has never drank it before. If you say you are a Chinese, no one will believe it, so why not be more straightforward.

"I see... Then I don't know how Master Zhang can communicate with her..." Pei Qinglan asked again deliberately.

"The technology in this world is so advanced, it is not difficult to communicate with her." Zhang Yu said with a smile.

"I wonder what kind of news I got from her. Is there anything about our eldest young master?" Pei Qinglan asked.

"She once saw a fire on the sea on an island. Because she is an Indian native and has never seen many things, she thought it was a fire from the sky. Otherwise, how could it have caught fire on the sea?" Zhang Yu said.

"In that case, could it be my eldest brother's ship?" This time, before Pei Qinglan could speak, Shao Weiping asked eagerly.

"It's possible." Zhang Yu said.

"Where is the fire?" Shao Weiping asked.

"I can't determine the specific location. She may be able to find it." Zhang Yu said.

"Then let's go to the fire place now." Shao Weiping said immediately.

"Mr. Shao, don't worry about this yet. In fact, I am a little, very confused." Zhang Yu said seriously.

"What's Mr. Zhang's doubts about?" Shao Weiping asked.

"As far as I know, the Shao family and the domestic public office have searched the sea area here, but they haven't found any wreckage. So I am very puzzled. Even the ships are not burned to the ground. Right." Zhang Yu said.

"This is why our family is puzzled. Our family didn't know that my eldest brother's boat was on fire. We just kept looking for it. It can be said that we used all the power we could, but we never found any clues." Shao Weiping said.

"In this case, I still have two questions that I would like to ask you." Zhang Yu said.

"What's the problem..." Shao Weiping said.

"It's no secret that Mr. Shao Weige escorted the fire stone to the country to present it to the government office. So I really want to know, where did this fire stone come from?" Zhang Yu asked.

"It was dug out by mining." Shao Weiping replied.

"What kind of mine can dig out something like this?" Zhang Yu asked deliberately.

"As far as I know, my brother's people accidentally dug out a piece of fire stone when they were mining copper ore on Nanzile Island," Shao Weiping said.

"This is really a coincidence." Zhang Yu smiled lightly.

"It's indeed a coincidence." Shao Weiping said.

Zhang Yu looked like he was chatting and laughing, but he was actually observing Shao Weiping's expression. He could see that Shao Weiping's expression was as usual, as if the fire stone was dug out of the mine.

"Then I still want to ask a question. That is...has anyone in the Shao family ever had contact with Indians?" Zhang Yu asked again.

"Indians..." Shao Weiping shook his head and said, "No one in our family seems to have contact with Indians..."

After speaking, he turned to look at Pei Qinglan.

Pei Qinglan then said: "I have always been protecting the boss, and I do know a little bit about the affairs in the family. I have never heard of anyone in the family having contact with the Indians."

"Then has anyone in your family ever been in danger at sea?" Zhang Yu asked again.

"This..." Shao Weiping was obviously stunned for a moment, while Pei Qinglan turned to look at Shao Weiping. Shao Weiping immediately said: "I previously purchased an important batch of goods in India and personally escorted the goods back to Canada. But halfway, the freighter hit a reef and the ship sank."

"How did Mr. Shao come back?" Zhang Yu asked deliberately.

"There were many lifeboats on the ship. We got on the lifeboat and started floating on the sea. We were lucky enough to encounter a passing cargo ship and rescued a few of us." Shao Weiping said.

"What sea area were you in at that time?" Zhang Yu asked again.

Shao Weiping looked puzzled when he saw Zhang Yu getting to the bottom of the problem and said, "It should belong to the high seas. After I was rescued, I asked about it and found that there are still at least two days of sailing before entering Canadian waters." Shao Weiping said.

"How many rescued people are there in the same lifeboat as you? What kind of lifeboat are you in?" Zhang Yu asked again.

His continuous questions made Pei Qinglan full of suspicion. Pei Qinglan just stared at Shao Weiping to see how Shao Weiping answered.

"The lifeboat we took was a large electric speedboat that could hold twenty people. I was eager to escape at that time, so I only took eight people to the lifeboat. Other people also got on the lifeboat. People on the cargo ship, unless Those who died in the accidental collision probably got on other lifeboats," Shao Weiping said.

His answer inevitably surprised Zhang Yu. Because according to Young Chief Nyon, the people who went to the island took rubber boats, not electric lifeboats.

Zhang Yu then asked: "Since you are all together, why were only a few of you rescued in the end, and where were the other lifeboats?"

"We were not the only ones rescued, at least half of them returned to Canada. Our lifeboat set out together at that time, looking for ships and land on the sea. But the sea was vast, and even after the lifeboat ran out of power, we couldn't find it. Later, strong winds blew on the sea, and our lifeboat could only drift with the current. After a while, no one could see anyone else," Shao Weiping said.
