Trafford’s Trading Club

The old captain's name is Mu Enli. The deputy captain's name is Mu Qinghai.

It is said that when Mu Qinghai was a baby, he was abandoned by someone near the dock. Later, he was met by Mu Enli. Mu Enli, who had been single and unmarried, resolutely adopted the child and named him Mu Qinghai.

In addition to being a cruise ship, the White Jade would also take on some cargo work and long-distance voyages, so Mu Enli simply put Mu Qinghai on the ship to take care of her.

Although the father and son both have their own properties in the city, as Mu Qinghai said, Baiyu is his home... which is actually true.

He grew up on the ship until he was in school. Later, after graduating, he returned to work on the White Jade. And because of his excellent work ability, he was promoted to the position of deputy captain at the age of thirty.

…

Taking off the hat on his head, the old captain Mu Enli placed it next to himself, then took out a stainless steel wine bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the lid, and drank slowly alone. .

This is the highest area that visitors on the White Jade can overlook, and the areas above are only used by the crew.

During this time, there was no one around. Mu Enli sat on the bench in front of the guardrail. While drinking, he also looked at the pocket watch on his body. He seemed to be distracted.

"Dad, you are indeed here."

Mu Qinghai came from behind at this time.

Mu Enli put away his pocket watch and took another sip by himself without looking back. Mu Qinghai walked up to the old captain at this time, reached out and snatched his wine bottle, frowned and said, "The doctor said you can't drink."

"Take it back." The old captain stretched out his hand, but Mu Qinghai shook his head. The old captain glared, seemed to be a little drunk, and said slightly angrily: "I have been at sea for more than 30 years, and I have drunk more wine than you drink water! I know whether there is something wrong!"

"When did you become a stubborn old man?" Mu Qinghai sighed and sat down.

The old captain snorted softly, turned around, leaned on the back of the stool, and faced Mu Qinghai with his back. Mu Qinghai said in a good voice: "Dad, didn't you agree before to record the program properly?"

The old captain said: "You promised, I didn't. I already said in the morning that I won't take pictures of this... Don't mention what happened in the morning, I will be angry if you mention it!"

Mu Qinghai said helplessly: "Dad, what I said this morning was a little too much. Please calm down."

"That's a nice thing to say." Mu Enli murmured: "Whatever plan the company proposes, don't think that I don't know that it was you who suggested it. It's just for meritorious service so that you can get promoted, right?"

Mu Qinghai frowned: "Dad, I am your son, do you just not want to see me?"

Mu Enli was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "What father doesn't want to see his child well? I want to see you start a family and have a successful career. I don't want to see you use this method... Qinghai, you are too eager. I beg you. You only arrived at the age of thirty, and you are already the deputy captain. You will have many opportunities in the future, so instead of consuming your life and me now!"

"Dad, how can you say that!" Mu Qinghai disagreed and said: "You have served on the White Jade for thirty years, and you have worked hard. Everyone has seen it and respected you. Now that the White Jade is about to retire, so will you. After retirement, wouldn't it be nice to shoot a documentary so that when you get old and can't walk anymore, you can still look at these memories?"

"I can still walk! Eat well and sleep well! Don't worry!"

"Dad, can't we have a good talk?" Mu Qinghai said in a deep voice: "Since I came to work here, don't you think about that time when we all had a quarrel? I know that public and private matters must be distinguished. On the ship, you You and I have a superior-subordinate relationship, which is understandable. But I never thought of relying on your relationship! After I got on the ship, I started as the lowest waiter. Until now, I have relied on myself. Ability!"

"You are indeed a very competent deputy captain." Mu Enli shook his head and said calmly: "But you are not qualified to be a captain."

"You always deny me." Mu Qinghai clenched his fists, "Since childhood, you have always denied me. In your eyes, I will always fail... just because I am not your biological child?"

"What did you say! Say it again!" Mu Enli's eyes widened and he glared angrily.

"I'm sorry, I spoke too harshly again." Mu Qinghai took a deep breath and stood up, "Captain, this shooting is the company's intention. The company asked me to be responsible. I hope you won't make it difficult for me. Since you are also an employee of the company , please obey the company’s orders and do your part.”

"Mu Qinghai, how dare you talk to me like this!" The old captain suddenly stood up with an angry look on his face.

"It's getting late, Captain, you should go to bed early. I will inform you before shooting tomorrow," Mu Qinghai turned around, turned around and walked away from the place. In the end, he did not look back, but said softly One sentence, "Also, remember to take your medicine."

Watching Mu Qinghai leave, the old captain gasped for air, his face suddenly became extremely painful, he covered his heart hard, and finally threw himself to the ground.

The old captain struggled to put his hand into his pocket, took out a medicine bottle, and quickly swallowed a few pills. But his face was still pale.

These drugs, which were originally able to relieve his symptoms, seemed to be less common this time. The old captain felt as if his heart wanted to burst. He was sweating from the pain, and it became increasingly difficult to breathe.

But at this time, the old captain felt a burst of strength out of thin air. His trembling hands once again grabbed the pill and wanted to swallow it.

"Mr. Captain, if you eat these pills again, you will die immediately...it is three parts poisonous, you should know that."

Suddenly there was a voice...a quiet voice.

…

The old captain looked towards the voice with difficulty, his consciousness began to be a little blurry... his vision was also blurry, and he could only vaguely see two figures, like a man and a woman.

"I...I can't...fall...here..."

"Captain, you have always been in the habit of taking medicine randomly, right? And you haven't given up drinking. Your heart has reached its limit. You will die if you take this medicine. If you don't take this medicine, you probably won't be able to survive these two days. Probably Will...leave in a coma."

People say that the older you get, the better you understand your destiny. Especially for people who are about to die, their perception is far more accurate than any of the most advanced medical devices.

The old captain slowly stretched out his hand and grabbed the night sky... It seemed that something in the night sky was reaching out to him.

He wriggled his lips and begged: at least... at least let him complete this voyage, at least let him accompany it on its last journey.

"Let me... let me... at least give me... a few more days..."

Mu Enli's hands suddenly dropped and he closed his eyes.

"I understand...guest."

…

…

"Captain, Captain, Captain! Wake up! Wake up! Captain!"

His body was shaken, and the old captain slowly opened his eyes. His vision gradually became clear, and he saw a young crew member.

"Captain! You're awake! Thank God! Captain, I have the medical team, come right away!" The crew member breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

The old captain sat up with the help of the crew and subconsciously reached out to touch his heart... For many years, he had never felt that it was beating so energetically, and his breathing was incredibly smooth.

"Captain? I informed the deputy captain and he said to come right away!"

"I'm fine." Mu Enli shook his head, stood up on his knees, picked up the captain's hat on the stool and put it on, "No need to make a fuss."

"Captain, but you just..." The crew member wanted to say something else.

Mu Enli said, "Do you look like I'm in trouble?"

The crew member was stunned... but found that the old captain's face seemed to be really good, and he looked energetic as if he was a few years younger.

"Why don't you go back to your post?" The old captain suddenly shouted.

The crew member was startled and subconsciously saluted and stood up straight, "Yes! I'll go back right now!"

"Wait a minute." Mu Enli, the mother, walked up to the crew member, stretched out her hand to straighten his hat, and turned over the collar, and said in a deep voice: "Don't embarrass me!"

The crew raised their heads and chests again, not daring to take a breath... Captain Mu Enli was famous for being strict and rigid.

"Young man, do your best."

Mu Enli turned around and walked away from the young crew member with his hands behind his back.
