"There are only these supplies. It seems we will have to stay here for a while."
Qiao Li looked at a box of compressed biscuits, two bottles of fresh water, and a few anti-inflammatory tablets in front of her, and said to Chen Rui.
Chen Rui raised his head and glanced at the sky. At this moment, the dark clouds on the sea had faded.
As the sun sets in the west, you can see the gorgeous colorful clouds on the horizon.
But he was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery at all.
These were the only supplies they found from the life-saving box that came with the rubber boat.
And their biggest reliance was the satellite phone he had hidden on his body.
I originally thought that after escaping to the island, I would ask Qiao Li to contact her for support as soon as possible.
He asked them to come over and save people quickly, but they never thought that when they took out the phone, they were dumbfounded.
The phone was soaked by the heavy rain and was completely soaked.
It can't even turn on the phone, what a stupid phone call.
Chen Rui quickly turned on the phone, took out the battery, and wiped it dry.
I hope that the sea water will not corrode and destroy the battery. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow when the sunshine is better.
I took the phone out to the sun and blasted it to see if it could be used after drying it.
If they can't use it, then they may really have to learn like Robinson Crusoe.
I'm waiting on this island to see if there are any passing merchant ships. I don't know if I'll have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
However, although Chen Rui was very upset, he did not show it in front of Qiao Li.
The two removed the awning from the boat.
Just beside the beach, a small tent was set up.
Because it was their first time to land on the island, the two of them did not dare to explore the depths of the island.
Fortunately, there is a circle of coconut trees growing near the coastline of this island.
With these coconut trees, the two of them will not lack fresh water.
Chen Rui climbed up the coconut tree and planned to get two coconuts to quench his thirst.
But after climbing a few meters, he suddenly fell from the tree.
Seeing such a scene, Qiao Li was startled and she ran towards him.
"What's wrong? Are you injured in the fall?"
Qiao Li asked with concern, but Chen Rui stood up like a carp and rolled up from the sand.
"Haha, look what I found?"
Chen Rui raised his hand, and Qiao Li opened her mouth in surprise.
Chen Rui was holding a huge coconut crab in his hand.
"Haha, we are in a good mood again today..."
In the evening, the two of them gathered around the bonfire in front of the tent and ate steaming grilled coconut crab with coconut milk.
After being full of wine and food, Chen Rui came to He Xiaohe who was tied under a coconut tree and fed the guy two sips of coconut water.
"Boss, I know I was wrong. I don't want the 30 million anymore. Can you let me go?"
He Xiaohe had completely lost his previous energy.
After taking a breath, he begged Chen Rui for mercy.
Chen Rui smiled coldly: "Is this 30 million between us? Why the hell do you still want my life!"
"Boss, I will compensate you. If you contact my dad, he will give it to you no matter how much you want."
He Xiaohe was really scared now and received several severe beatings during the day.
He felt sore and hungry at the moment. How could he, a young master, have ever suffered such a crime?
"Haha, your dad seems to be very rich?"
"By the way, where is your dad now? And Mr. Yao, where is he?"
Chen Rui suddenly asked when he saw that He Xiaohe was a little nervous.
He Xiaohe was really caught off guard by him and said without thinking too much.
"They went to Boston for a meeting."
"Oh? What is so important? They don't come to participate in such an important auction?"
Chen Rui asked again.
At this moment, He Xiaohe was in a very depressed state of mind. He was tied under the tree and exposed to the sun all afternoon, and his body felt sore and hot.
His lips were already split, and his throat was already smoking with thirst.
He looked straight at the coconut in Chen Rui's hand, almost answering all questions.
"Hi! There's a big shot who just arrived in Boston!"
"They have to meet, otherwise they will be on the boat this time..."
When Chen Rui heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Big shot? What big shot?"
"Well, he is the chief accountant of the group."
"Group? Chief Accountant? What's his name?"
"He called Wang Feng to come...well, why are you asking these questions?"
Only then did He Xiaohe realize that something was wrong with Chen Rui.
Why did he ask such a tricky question?
But at this time, what he saw was Chen Rui's evil smile.
"Tell me, tell me, and I'll give you coconut water!"
"Otherwise... I heard that those coconut crabs are used to coming out in the middle of the night to look for food."
"Their big pliers, haha, they can crush coconut shells. I wonder what it would be like to pinch people..."
The more he spoke, the more violently He Xiaohe's body trembled across from him.
"Wang Fenglai is the chief accountant of my dad's company!"
"Oh? What company does your father and the others belong to? How did they get these antiques from China?"
"I saw that there were several stolen antiques on that ship. Do you have any contact with the thieves?"
"What are their names?"
Chen Rui issued a series of soul-searching questions, but by this time He Xiaohe had completely realized that something was wrong.
Although he was very thirsty, he gritted his teeth and stopped talking.
When Chen Rui saw him like this, he just smiled coldly.
Then he poured the coconut water in his hand directly on the ground in front of him.
"I hope you can be as strong-willed as you are now tomorrow..."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the tent.
"Qiao Li, who has been staring at the movement here, looked at Chen Rui who got into the tent."
"Do you think he can explain tomorrow?"
"Absolutely! He is not a tough guy himself."
"Okay, it depends on your method."
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. It's been a tiring day. Let's go to bed."
As Chen Rui spoke, he raised his hand and put it on Qiao Li's body.
Qiao Li blushed, but she didn't resist...
Early the next morning, Chen Rui emerged from the tent feeling refreshed.
First I took a look at He Xiaohe. The grandson was not dead yet and was sleeping soundly under the coconut tree.
Chen Rui checked his hands and feet and found that the bindings were not loose, so he got up and went straight to the beach.
He wanted to see if he could get some shellfish or something on the beach for extra meals.
But as soon as he reached the beach, his eyes lit up.
Because he saw some ship fragments on the rocks on the seashore.
There are also some pots and pans floating over. It seems that there was a shipwreck nearby yesterday.
But soon, Chen Rui became even happier.
Because he found two huge wooden boxes from behind a hidden reef.
These two wooden boxes were exactly the wooden boxes that He Xiaohe sealed after transporting the antiques from the cruise ship to the luxury yacht.
It seems that the yacht failed to escape the pirates yesterday.
He quickly dragged the two wooden boxes ashore...
