Chapter 429: Broken sail

What made Xiao Peng depressed: Although the rainfall was not significant, it continued for two days.
This seriously affected the speed of the sailing ship, and the current ‘Guo Chuan’ can only advance at a speed of almost 15 knots. Xiao Peng was unable to do anything about it. Fortunately, the weather did not deteriorate, otherwise Xiao Peng's situation would be worse.
Xiao Peng was smoking his cigarette and looked at the phone with an expression of impossibility. There were no other people in the phone, but Taylor Swift, Zhuo Dandeng, and the supermodel Carly Kraus, who was nicknamed'KK'. Met once in the NBA All-Star Game.
The reason why Xiao Peng’s expression was unlovable was because the three of them were partying in the nightclub. Taylor Swift was showing Xiao Peng with his mobile phone to the handsome men and beauties around him: "Xiao, in your Chinese words, I am Very righteous, right? Knowing that you are bored at sea, how does it feel to show you beautiful women and listen to music?"
Xiao Peng cried and said, "I thank you, I thank you and the whole family..." Isn't this cheating? Don't you know how boring it is to wander at sea? Why do many crew members find a woman the first thing after disembarking? This is not without reason! You still show me a group of girls dancing, isn't this too jerk?
Taylor Swift smiled and said, "You don't have to thank my family, you just need to thank me."
"Uh..." Xiao Peng didn't know how to reply, so I couldn't tell her. I was not thanking you just now, but was an irony?
"Xiao, guess where we are?" Zhuo Dandeng interjected.
Xiao Peng shrugged: "Nightclub, fools can see it."
Now it was Zhuo Dandeng's turn to be speechless: "So where are we in the nightclub?"
"Star-stripe country." Xiao Peng answered without thinking.
Zhuo Dan and Deng snorted coldly: "Xiao! You did it on purpose! Tell you, we are in San Francisco! San Francisco! San Francisco! Important things have to be said three times!"
"Uh, why did you go to San Francisco?" Xiao Peng asked.
Tyler said with a sad expression: "It's not because of you who have no conscience. After China's departure, I didn't know that I would come to the Stars and Stripes to see us. Then we can only come to San Francisco to find you."
"Come on, Taylor, I didn't mess with you, don't hurt me, your words will make people think about it, I don't want your fans to be buried alive!" Xiao Peng was speechless.
"What do they think, I can't control it." Taylor Swift said: "By the way, Xiao, what have you been working on there all the time? From the moment you connected the video, I saw what you were working on there and what were you doing?"
Xiao Peng smiled: "I'm making a gift for you."
"Wow, do we still have gifts?" Taylor said in surprise.
Xiao Peng nodded: "I can be regarded as a guest in your Stars and Stripes country. How can I go empty-handed? China is a country of etiquette, and the most important thing is various etiquette. So I will prepare some gifts for you, of course, I think No gift is as good as making yourself."
After hearing this, Zhuo Dandeng said excitedly: "Is it a gift like you gave Eminem and Hailey?" She remembered that Xiao Peng gave Eminem and his daughter a pair of emerald cups, which caused a sensation at the time. , It's false to say it's not greedy,
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "The boat is bumpy, so you can't make such a detailed work, but I promise you will like it."
Zhuo Dan and Deng smiled and said, "If you have a conscience, you still know to bring us gifts. But you can't just give me gifts, our children also want gifts."
Puff, Xiao Peng looked at Zhuo Dandeng with a horrified expression: "Zhuo Dan, if Tyler talks scary, it would be amazing to say what you said. You still let me go to San Francisco? I rely on, you are in a nightclub. There are a lot of people next to him. Are you really afraid of making headlines tomorrow?"
Zhuo Dandeng grinned and said: "Then make the headlines, anyway, I am not afraid, with the saint Samuel, wow, I can't be excited just thinking about it..."
Xiao Peng was speechless, and pointed at Carly Claus and said, "You two can't learn ‘KK’, it depends on how prudent she is!"
I don’t know that when Xiao Peng’s words were just finished, Taylor Swift and Zhuo Dandeng both had horrified expressions: "Xiao, I beg God, you take that sentence back, your words hurt us seriously. You say She is more stable than us?"
Xiao Peng nodded with a puzzled face: "Yes, you see KK sitting there and smiling all the time, it looks like you two, constantly saying scary things, so I have a strong psychological endurance, otherwise I can let you Terrified."
Taylor Swift shook his head: "Are you really sure that you have a strong psychological endurance? Are you really sure that KK is more stable than us?"
Xiao Peng nodded and said, "I'm sure and sure. Look at KK, how happy you are with the young couple Joshua Kushner? Why is this happening? Isn't it because of her character."
Carly Klaus has stopped going on the Victoria's Secret show. The reason is simple. She left the Victoria's Secret stage after opening her love affair with Joshua Kushner in 2015.
As a supermodel, Carly Kraus's income is naturally high. With an annual income of 5 million US dollars, she ranks 11th in the "most profitable supermodel list", but compared with his rich boyfriend, Her little money is not enough to stuff her teeth.
Joshua Kushner is the most famous rich second-generation in New Jersey. He is a model of self-reliance: He raised 10,000 meters of gold with two friends in college and founded a social network company VOSTU, the target market Aiming at Brazil, today, VOSTU has become Brazil's largest social gaming platform.
The venture capital company he later established is even more famous. In 2012, the book return rate of an investment doubled within three days and became famous in one fell swoop.
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, Taylor Swift sighed: "Xiao, let you open your eyes today." After finishing speaking, he took up his glass "KK, drink a bar."
KK held the juice and shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I don't drink anymore."
Taylor smiled and said: "Just have a drink, I wish Xiao come soon."
KK took the wine glass and looked embarrassed: "Well, in that case, Xiao, I toast you."
Xiao Peng looked at KK and drank the wine glass with a look of pain: "Oh, aren't you friends? Is it so difficult for KK?"
Xiao Peng's voice just fell, but he saw KK's eyes lit up, eh? what's going on? Is it your own illusion?
. . . . . .
The rain finally stopped, and the wind speed was suitable for sailing. Xiao Peng raised the speed of the boat to the fastest speed and rushed towards San Francisco with all his strength. It was raining again along the way and looking for extremely endangered animals. Xiao Peng had already wasted a lot of time.
But no matter how seriously Xiao Peng sailed the boat, there was a shadow that lingered in his mind: after Carly Klaus drank. . . . . . too terrifying!
Xiao Peng thought for a long time, only to remember that one person could match the image of KK after drinking, and that was Wesley, the deputy president of Beta Society in "American Pie: Brotherhood". Wesley, who does not drink alcohol, can be called a model student. . . . . . God knows what he can do. For example, after sobering up, I found myself in a prison in another country, and it took several months to escape. For example, I found myself on a plane with a child I adopted. . . . . . In a word, he doesn't know who he is after drinking.
KK also has this potential. After drinking the first sip, then he has a second, third, and fourth sip. . . . . . Seeing the energy of KK running all over the field, otherwise Zhuo Dandeng stopped, I really don't know what moth she can make.
Xiao Peng still remembers the last sentence before Taylor Swift hung up the video: "Do you still think KK is the most stable one?"
Xiao Peng shook his head desperately with a look of horror. After KK drank alcohol, people went crazy! Cherish life, never drink with KK.
Xiao Peng stood in front of the winch, drank beer and adjusted the sails. After two days of rain, the sky was clear. Xiao Peng was enjoying the sun, and the sea breeze was blowing slowly. Xiao Peng was so pleasant! This is called navigation! This is called sailing!
Just when Xiao Peng was fully manoeuvring the boat, there was a sudden shattering sound, and after only a loud noise, the No. 1 spinnaker flew out!
Before Xiao Peng could react, the rope tied to the No. 1 headsail was thrown off and hit the glass in the cab, directly smashing the glass, the glass casually hit the ground.
Only then did Xiao Peng react and quickly adjusted his course. How could such a problem suddenly happen? Do super yachts also have quality problems? He hurried to the bow to check the location of the break.
Xiao Peng took a breath after seeing the place where it broke.
It turns out that the impact of the basking shark did not cause damage to the'Guo Chuan'. On the contrary, the damage was very large: a crack was hit in the front of the hull. Fortunately, it was the solid carbon fiber bow that was installed with the fixed fore sail pulley. If the break is somewhere else, it is really dangerous, and the sailboat is leaking, that is no joke!
This is how to do? Can't fix the fore sail, isn't this a joke? Without the headsail speed, that would be greatly affected. And most importantly, it is a question whether you can make it to San Francisco without the front sail!
This is a major accident. If someone else encounters this situation, they cannot fix the fore sail and can only choose to give up and call for rescue.
Xiao Peng didn't want to give up. It didn't fit his character. Otherwise, he would do his best if he didn't do it! Otherwise, I'm sorry Guo Chuan's Spirit in Heaven!
He observed it carefully, and if there was any luck, it was that there was no problem with the fore sail crossbar, but the number one fore sail. The No. 2 and No. 3 front sails and the big front sail Xiao Peng did not rise, but they also survived.
The question before Xiao Peng is, what about the No. 1 jib front sail? It's really impossible without this stuff!
