The ship arrived in North Korea (190) The captain's tense negotiations, the sheriff ate inside and outside was disappointing

Our boat was hit by a North Korean boat, and the North Korean captain who hit the ship took the initiative to get on board to ask for compensation, which I really didn't expect. What I didn't expect was that in order to deal with this matter, the sergeant who happened to have lunch on our ship happened to know these people, and even the former president we brought with us knew these North Korean sailors.

I thought that everyone knew each other, and this matter would be easier to deal with, but the reality was not what I thought. The sheriff actually knew this way of touching porcelain in his heart, but he just happened to meet us, which embarrassed both parties, especially the sheriff specially reminded the North Korean captain, "How can you crash into this ship, they are my friends?"

Hearing this, my heart was plucked out of the cold, it can be seen that they are usually in a group, specializing in this kind of porcelain-touching thing. The sheriff was like that, and so was the agent coming from behind, it really made me see the darkness of the docks.

The captain looked at the men and frowned, but did not give them good fruit to eat. Since no one came up with a solution, the captain said directly, "Comrade Sergeant, how do you usually deal with this matter in North Korea?" Comrade Agent, as the representative of the shipowner, how will you handle this matter for the company?"

At this time, the sergeant and the agent looked at each other, and the agent said directly, "Yo, comrade captain, don't worry, I will definitely help you deal with this matter." ”

The sheriff didn't speak, only heard the agent tell Xiaomei and the others to leave the scene. It seems that the agent has a secret to tell the North Korean captain, and all the laymen present were called away from the scene, including the eldest lady.

After the North Korean locals left, the captain and I were left in the conference room, along with the deputy, the sergeant, and three North Korean crew members. Faced with this situation, the captain whispered to me, "Don't you understand some Korean language?

When the captain told me this, my psychological pressure rose directly. On weekdays, I didn't study Korean well, and I couldn't speak it stupidly, but I could understand some simple languages, and I couldn't listen to the whole sentence very smoothly.

I saw that the agent sat in front of the North Korean captain from his original position, and he spoke quite normally at first, probably after understanding the basic situation, he immediately whispered again, and I still heard a sentence in it. The agent whispered, "Comrade, how much are you going to pit each other?"

I barely heard what they said the next time, and the captain asked me three times, and I could only regret that he didn't understand. Although the captain was a little angry, he didn't dare to show it.

Helplessly, after the agent and the North Korean captain whispered, the agent behaved very very friendly and said, "Comrade captain, just now I had a detailed and in-depth communication with the North Korean captain, through the understanding of the whole process, the North Korean captain is not responsible, mainly because he thinks that your ship is oversized and occupies their dock, which directly led to the collision of the two ships." ”

When the captain heard this, he asked very seriously, "Comrade Agent, I asked you to come to the ship to help me solve the problem, not to let you judge and talk about things." You'll either work on the results for me, or you'll be the translator for me. ”

The captain didn't give the agent any face, and he looked particularly annoyed, and continued, "Are you all like this in North Korea, and want to pit us Chinese together?"

The agent didn't dare to say anything, so he swallowed the words back, looked at me and the sheriff, and pretended to make a phone call.

The sheriff, who was sitting next to the captain, saw that the agent did not help deal with the matter, but instead angered the captain, and his expression was a little nervous, and he deliberately said a few words to the captain of the North Korean ship. Afterwards, the sergeant and the captain said, "Comrade captain, I will help you deal with this matter, you can rest assured." ”

After a group of people had been negotiating in the conference room for about five minutes, the sheriff received a call from the bureau, and the conversation between them lasted at least ten minutes, during which the sheriff must have deliberately walked into the hallway to answer the phone in order to avoid suspicion.

Watching the sheriff go in and out, the captain took out a blank piece of paper and asked them to unload the meaning they wanted to express in English, and also beckoned to me, "First mate, you go and call Xiaomei for me." ”

Right now, the captain is in earnest.

I came to the restaurant, and when Xiaomei saw me coming, she immediately asked me about the result. I said simply, "Xiao Mei'er, come over here, I have something to say to you." ”

Xiaomei understood what I meant, and ran directly to me and whispered, "Brother, I see that the chat between you is a little wrong, can you tell me what happened?"

Since Xiaomei has already noticed a little bit, I also directly informed her of the invisible behavior of these people in North Korea.

After Xiaomei learned about this, she was very angry, and said directly in her mouth, "It's terrible, these officials are really black-hearted, I didn't expect to want to join forces to trap you, how to enhance the relationship between the two sides?"

I took Mei to the scene, and the sheriff was talking in the conference room. Just as I was about to step through the door of the conference room, the phone in the captain's office rang again. The captain didn't answer, I answered the phone for him, it was the chairman of the headquarters who called, asking about the damage.

I didn't dare to talk nonsense, so I could only say to the chairman, "The damage is being measured at the scene, and the captain is negotiating with the other party." ”

The chairman didn't say anything, and hung up the phone when he heard that it was negotiating.

When I returned to the conference room, Mei was standing next to the captain and talking to the sergeant.

From their exchanges, I see that the sheriff is still kind. The sergeant and the captain said, "Comrade captain, I tell you clearly, the North Korean captain's practice is consistent, it is the practice of our North Korean wharf, and it is also the demand of our North Korean wharf. Of course, I'm on your ship today, and I'm not going to let this happen on your ship. ”

According to the sheriff, does he want the North Korean captain to let us go?

Xiaomei asked the sheriff, "Comrade sheriff, how are you going to deal with this matter?"

Comrade Sheriff thought for a moment and said, "This is the case, after all, this incident happened in North Korea, and the usual practice is to compensate for the costs. Since everyone is a friend, I communicated with the captain of the North Korean ship about this matter, and the other party also said forget it. That is, the North Korean captains do not need our compensation anymore. ”

When I heard this, I was very annoyed and thought to myself, "These people are really black, why do they still want us to give money, and we haven't held them accountable and made them lose money." ”

After Xiaomei translated the sheriff's words for the captain, the captain was very angry, got up and asked, "This matter can't be left as it is, our ship is parked on the dock and is fine, it was the North Korean ship that hit us, causing our ship to break." In any case, this matter will have to be claimed by the North Korean captain. ”

The captain continued, "This matter cannot be solved just like this, either take the initiative to compensate, or I will let the insurance company assess the damage. ”

The sheriff is a shrewd man, and he knows better than anyone else the consequences of compensation, and he gives the North Korean captain a look.

Xiaomei saw this situation, and was not happy in person, and said, "Comrade Sheriff, we still have to deal with things fairly and justly, whose responsibility is whose responsibility is whose responsibility, in my understanding, I still support the captain to find an insurance company to assess the damage." ”

Xiaomei's words subverted my perception of Xiaomei, and in my opinion, Xiaomei has really grown up. Xiaomei did not favor them, but really wanted to help the captain.

The captain saw that the sheriff had no idea, so he directly picked up the phone in the conference room and called the ship insurance company. The next result is to wait for the insurance company to assess the damage, and then follow the normal process.

The sheriff made a small gesture when the captain was on the phone, he wanted to stop the captain, hoping that the two sides could negotiate well.

The sheriff understands that once the insurance company comes to assess the damage, the whole cost is not small, and if it can be negotiated privately, there is still room for compensation.

The captain also understands that if the other party is unkind, then we are also unjust.

After answering the phone, the captain said very politely, "Comrades, if you are willing to wait here, then wait for the insurance company to assess the damage, if you are not willing to wait, please leave your personal information to me." I'm going to have lunch and I don't have time to accompany you, so you can't send it off. ”

The captain was really angry this time, and he didn't pay attention to the sheriff and the others at all.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of leaving, the sheriff also gave the North Korean captain a special look, hoping that they would leave.

When the captain saw that they were about to leave, he immediately asked them to leave their names and personal identification information.

The matter was settled, they left, and the captain did not invite the sheriff to the restaurant. Out of immediacy, I asked Xiaomei to invite the sheriff to the restaurant to continue the meal.

The sheriff must have felt very ashamed in his heart, and wanted to leave the scene with the North Korean captain and others, Xiaomei grabbed the sheriff and said, "Comrade sheriff, we are only halfway through our meal, and everyone is waiting for you to go back and continue eating." ”

The embarrassed sheriff was in a dilemma, and I pretended to be polite and said, "Let's go, comrade sheriff, everyone is waiting for you." ”

The sheriff reluctantly returned to the restaurant, and at this time the crew in the restaurant had all dispersed, and only the eldest lady and Li Wenjin and others were waiting for us to eat.

When the eldest lady saw us coming in, she asked, "How is it going?"

Everyone didn't speak, but Xiaomei said, "No, I think the North Korean captain is very unkind about this matter, why should the Chinese captain be responsible for this matter, and why should the Chinese captain be responsible for it?"

This logic should be understood by everyone present. The sheriff sat in the position quite awkwardly, and the eldest lady deliberately asked, "Comrade sheriff, you have been working on the dock for decades, and you should have encountered such a thing before, what is your usual practice?"

Li Wenjin also sat aside and listened to what was wrong, and then asked, "Yes, since it was our country's ship that hit someone else, then the responsibility lies with them, and they should compensate others for the loss." ”

It is still the businessman who pays attention to credibility and stands up for us to speak fairly.

The captain didn't speak, and everyone present looked at the sheriff, waiting for the sheriff to speak.
