Chapter 912: Just a Business Action
After packing up, they returned to the uninhabited island to retrieve the Hood which was temporarily placed there. The Royal side also disbanded most of the fleet and let them return, but the part that remained was still much larger than the original team.
In name, Yang Sikang treated the Gu Diao as a mass-produced ship and let Belfast and others take turns to control it, but in fact, because of Bai Ze's presence, the Gu Diao could move forward normally with the fleet without any people.
After all, the Royal Navy specially prepared the mass-produced version of the Hood for this tour, and also made a lot of modifications. It would be a waste if it were not used. And taking the Hood for a tour also has special significance.
As for the follow-up of the battle, Hood, Rodney and Nelson also had a new understanding of the combat methods of Yang Sikang's fleet.
Yang Sikang himself does not necessarily have to be responsible for command. In fact, in the current fleet composition, Yang Sikang often has the spare energy to pay attention to some detailed clues and discover those clues that are easily overlooked. In most cases, the responsibility of commanding the battle can be completely left to the ship girls to arrange.
This also means that this battle in the mirror sea is actually not dangerous for Yang Sikang.
This is indeed the case. With the help of the Purifiers and the fact that there are no troublesome guys on the opponent's side, the situation is not one-sided, but it is not too far off.
Relatively speaking, the gains were enormous, so Yang Sikang was always in a good mood when dealing with subsequent matters.
"Commander, please enjoy the snacks made by the maids~"
Rodney took the snacks and put them on the table, then sat down briskly beside them.
They are now on the deck, but Yang Sikang was originally looking into the distance and thinking, but he didn't know why the ship girls slowly gathered around him, and now it seemed like they were enjoying the sunshine on the deck.
Yang Sikang actually likes this kind of atmosphere. Instead of thinking about those troublesome things, it is also nice to watch the relaxed interaction among the ship girls.
Take a piece of cake and put it in your mouth. The soft bread, sweet but not greasy cream and jam sandwich are mixed together, bursting with irresistible deliciousness.
"The atmosphere here is really good."
A brilliant voice suddenly rang out in the communication channel. Yang Sikang turned around and saw Youjiang flying around beside him, looking happy.
"Miss Radiance, would you like to come over and join us?"
"Thank you for your invitation, but I have something else to do. This time I mainly want to inform you that we will arrive at the next supply point in an hour. If nothing goes wrong, we will sail directly to the Thames. If you have anything that needs to be prepared in advance, please prepare it at the next supply point."
"Okay, thanks for the reminder."
After Yang Sikang answered, the call ended.
After checking the time, Yang Sikang walked to the side, took out the terminal and contacted Mingshi and Dingan.
"Glorious said we'll reach the last supply point in an hour. Are all your supplies ready?"
"Everything is ready, Commander. Everything you need has been prepared and should be arriving at the port soon."
Ding'an answered briskly, Yang Sikang nodded, and Mingshi followed up with:
"Akashi is also ready, meow! As long as the commander is ready, Akashi's stuff can be shipped out at any time, meow!"
The two ship girls who are now in charge of the revenue affairs of the entire fleet are fully prepared, so Yang Sikang has nothing to worry about.
After simply ending the call, Yang Sikang turned around and saw Belfast standing quietly behind him.
"Master, have you prepared any special gift for Sister Edinburgh?"
"Yes, it is a tradition of our fleet that new ship girls joining the fleet must be given a gift."
Yang Sikang said with a smile, but Belfast asked:
"Although I didn't specifically ask, is the gift you prepared a little too heavy?"
Belfast said helplessly:
"Of course, I'm not saying that the gift you prepared is bad. It's just that your move this time is a bit too big. I'm worried that Sister Edinburgh won't dare to accept your gift."
"Don't worry, she will definitely accept this gift."
Yang Sikang smiled and said:
"Maid, are you free now? How about accompanying me back to the Gu Diao?"
"Yes, Master."
Yang Sikang brought Belfast back to the Gu Diao, where Mingshi and Ding'an were both.
Because the defense measures on the Gu Diao were more complete, the two people who needed to perform some network operations naturally chose to go back and forth between the two ships.
When Yang Sikang came to the cabin, there was a pile of packed crates on the floor and some plastic boxes neatly stacked against the wall.
Ding'an was checking the inventory of goods with the help of the screen unfolded by Bai Ze, while Mingshi was holding a sticky note that was about three times longer than her height and was carefully sticking labels on them one by one.
"Commander, you're here so soon meow? Humph, you've come just in time. Let me show you Akashi and Ding'an's masterpiece meow!"
Akashi put down the note in his hand and ran to the wall. Ding'an squatted down beside him and picked up the note. He gently patted the non-existent dust on it and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, Commander. I made you see such a mess, but we are wrapping up now, and we can finish the work before reaching the port."
"I believe in your abilities, but why do you have to stick these notes manually?"
Ding'an sighed helplessly and explained:
"We could have used a machine to print out the sticky notes and pasted them on, which would have saved a lot of time. But Akashi said she made some special sticky notes and wanted all of this shipment to use the ones she just made. These are them."
Ding'an pointed at the note in his hand, then pointed to the box next to him that had been taped and said:
"Akashi left some special material powder on these notes. These powders can be directly checked with our special instruments, but it is almost impossible for outsiders to find them. Based on the distribution of the powder above, it is easy to check whether our goods have been opened by anyone during the journey. This is what Akashi said."
"That's right, meow!"
Mingshi also trotted over at this time, holding a special opaque black box. She ran skillfully through the debris on the ground as if walking on flat ground, stopped in front of Yang Sikang, and opened the black acrylic box.
Inside was a powdery substance wrapped in a transparent film. It looked a bit like iron powder, but the color was very light.
But as Akashi shook it gently, the powder immediately dispersed completely and became very fine.
