This tropical storm lasted much longer than Song Wenbin expected. It rained intermittently in the Semarang area without stopping for two days. Song Wenbin had nothing to do, and he couldn't stay in the house all day like Sutina. To research the information, I could only eat and sleep in the hotel.

On the third day, the storm was still roaring over the Java Sea.

Wei Ning, who shared a standard room with Song Wenbin, came back from the hotel and said, "Yan, the captain is looking for you."

Seeing Captain Kong Mao outside the room, Song Wenbin quickly got up from the bed, came to the door and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The weather forecast says the storm will be over the day after tomorrow."

Kong Mao whispered: "If you want supplies, you have to do it early, otherwise when the weather gets better, there will definitely be more people here."

Although Kong Mao didn't know what Song Wenbin and his team were doing in Indonesia, so many days of continuous salvage operations at sea had already made him smell some unusual smells. This young boss probably spent 10 million US dollars to buy a yacht, but he must have other plans.

"clear."

Song Wenbin quickly put on his clothes and said, "I'll go buy supplies right away."

You can contact an agent to have the yacht's water and fuel refilled by the dock in your area, but the food and some daily necessities needed by the crew must be purchased in person. Of course, if it were in a real scene, it would probably not be the ship owner's turn to do it himself. After all, all ship owners who can buy a yacht are top rich, but Song Wenbin is not after all, he is just pretending, and he is not He hoped that others would board the Sambo rashly, so these supplies could only be completed by him and the photography team.

After Song Wenbin explained the captain's request to his two colleagues, Su Tina and Huo Yu, who had already been suffocating in the hotel, couldn't wait to leave the room and wanted to go out with him to purchase supplies.

So the group asked the hotel owner to borrow two vans and drove along the wet streets towards the city of Semarang.

Not long after, they arrived at a local supermarket called Indo. It was still afternoon, but there was no one in the supermarket. Song Wenbin got off the car and pushed the trolley into the supermarket, thinking about what he wanted to buy.

Needless to say, carbohydrates such as rice and noodles also need to be supplemented with fresh vegetables and fruits. Of course, meat is more indispensable. After all, none of them have time to fish at sea.

However, when he was about to buy noodles, he pushed a trolley past the daily necessities section. Song Wenbin, who had already passed by, walked backwards and pulled the trolley back. A row of pink bags on the daily necessities attracted him. Attention, there is a white little angel painted on the pink bag. The little angel has two wings and is very cute.

"ah..."

Song Wenbin trembled all over and turned pale.

He thought of something and couldn't help but take those small pink paper bags and put them into the trolley. After loading a dozen bags, he nodded with satisfaction. Pushing the cart toward the noodle area.

After buying some rice noodles, Song Wenbin went to the fruit section. At this time, Su Tina and Huo Yu were selecting some tropical fruits in the fruit section. Song Wenbin's cart passed by. Unlike Su Tina and Huo Yu, who carefully selected fruits, Song Wenbin threw the fruits into the cart without caring about the quality at all.

Su Tina was very dissatisfied with Song Wenbin's careless purchasing method and said, "Buy slowly. Why are you in such a hurry on a rainy day? You can't go into the water."

"You can just buy any fruit. Tropical fruits are easy to spoil if kept in the refrigerator." Song Wenbin said, "The main thing is to buy some meat."

"Buying meat is fine, but I don't know about Indonesia..."

As she spoke, Sutina keenly noticed that there seemed to be something pink in Song Wenbin's trolley.

She lowered her head and looked down. She couldn't help but pull out a package and put it in front of Song Wenbin and asked, "Why did you buy this?"

Huo Yu, who was selecting rambutans, also turned his head and was stunned for a moment, then looked angry. She threw the bag away, strode up to the pink bag, snatched it away, and looked at it over and over.

"I bought it for you." Song Wenbin said matter-of-factly.

"Are you out of your mind? Why should I ask you to buy it!!"

Huo Yu growled ferociously: "Don't I know how to buy it myself? Do you know our sizes!?"

"Huh? This thing still has sizes."

Song Wenbin wiped the saliva from his face in surprise.

"nonsense!!"

Huo Yu's face turned red. She looked at the piles of towels in the cart and turned them over one by one.

"Brother Song, we appreciate your kindness...but...why did you buy so much..." Sutina murmured, "I won't be able to use up this until it expires..."

"Please, don't make your own decisions, okay!? We can do this ourselves!!" Huo Yu yelled when he found that all the sizes were wrong.



Song Wenbin muttered: "It's my fault for taking the initiative. If it's like last time, sharks will be attracted to the sea. Isn't it said that sharks' noses are very sensitive..."

"Shut the fuck up!!!"

Huo Yu became angry and scolded him harshly.

She simply couldn't wrap her head around the scene Song Wenbin was talking about, it was so damn outrageous.

Sutina didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Brother Song... It's the middle of the month... Everything will be fine..."

Huo Yu's shameful filial piety attracted the attention of other customers and merchants in the supermarket. Not far away, the director who was picking yogurt in front of the milk cabinet smelled the smell of conflict. He turned his head like a shark smelling blood.

Since this time it was a simple purchase, director Pauly was not prepared to film such nonsense. However, it was obvious that the chemical reaction between the three hosts exceeded his expectations. He happily took out a small camera to show Song Wenbin's trio rushed over and wanted to know why they could quarrel over buying something.

But Huo Yu couldn't let Bao Li take pictures of such outrageous things. She snatched the cart with her hands, knocked Song Wenbin away, pushed the cart to return her aunt's towel, and took Bao Li, who came to take pictures of her daily life, with her. Lee was also knocked to the ground.

"Go away! I'm annoying you!" When she passed the fallen director, she stepped on his stomach.

The photographer on the side quickly went to help the director.

Song Wenbin didn't expect that his good intentions would actually lead to bad things. He really didn't know that things like aunt's towels come in different sizes...

Sutina also looked at him helplessly: "Okay, we will pay attention to this kind of thing in the future, and it will definitely not happen a second time." She spread her hands and said: "Go buy meat."

"Yes Yes Yes...."

Song Wenbin quickly borrowed the donkey from the slope and pretended that nothing happened and went to the meat stall with Sutina.

However, the meat stall was extremely deserted. There were some empty iron hooks hanging on the stall, and there was not a piece of meat on the stall. Several vendors were leaning on their chairs and playing with their mobile phones, with no intention of serving them. There wasn't even a fly in Nuo Da's meat stall.

Song Wenbin was surprised when he saw the empty stall and asked, "Excuse me, is there any meat for sale, pork or something like that?"

There are many Chinese here in Semarang, and the vendor seemed to do the same. He obviously understood Song Wenbin's words, but he just raised his eyelids and glanced at him sinisterly, without saying a word.

Su Tina quickly grabbed Song Wenbin and said, "Don't talk nonsense, people here believe in Christianity and don't eat pork."

Song Wenbin was startled, saw the small round hat on the man's head, and backed away slowly.

But besides pork, there is no other meat here. Song Wenbin went around and only bought a few frozen shrimps, which made him a little confused.

At this time, the film crew and Huo Yu also pushed the cart over. Apparently they all discovered similar problems. This supermarket only sold some basic carbohydrates and fruits, and there was no meat at all, not even seafood.

"What's going on in this supermarket? There's so little food?"

Sutina looked at the time and said, "It's mid-March now and they are celebrating Ramadan here. I'm afraid we won't be able to buy too many meat products."

Ramadan...

Song Wenbin was in trouble. If he or she usually eats less meat, it would be better to eat less meat. However, they have to dive dozens of meters deep every day, which is a test to the limit of physical and mental strength. At this time, if nutrition is An imbalanced body is sure to create problems quickly.

"Meat is a must." Song Wenbin said: "How about going to other places to see? I don't believe it's all Hui Hui."

Sutina checked her phone and shook her head, saying: "It probably won't work. Ninety percent of Indonesia's population are Buddhists, and even the remaining ten percent are Buddhists or Christians. These two religions are There’s also Ramadan.”

"When is Ramadan?" Huo Yu asked.

"The beginning of April. That's when they have Eid and then they can eat meat normally."

"Fuck..."

Song Wenbin couldn't help but said angrily: "We just can't buy meat anymore."

No one answered, but there was some disappointment in their eyes. At this time, a boy in the team raised his hand, holding a card and said: "Brother Song, I...when I went out of the hotel to buy snacks that day, someone sent me a card."

The boy's name is Wang Chenliang. He is about the same age as Song Wenbin. He is an equipment technician in the film crew. He is responsible for the maintenance and repair of various filming equipment. He can be regarded as half a logistics person.

When Song Wenbin heard what Wang Chenliang said, he immediately stretched out his hand and said, "Show me."

Wang Chenliang handed the card to Song Wenbin. Song Wenbin took a look and saw that meat was drawn on the front of the card, cattle and sheep were drawn on the back, and there was a row of numbers and English letters at the bottom.

Song Wenbin took the card to Su Tina and asked, "What does it say?"

Sutina looked down and said, "It says beef and mutton are for sale. You can call this number if you need it."

"Okay, I'll just say..."

Song Wenbin even said that he did not believe that there was a place where the faith could be so pure that the whole country could not eat meat for a month. There are people who do the business of beheading, and the business of selling meat is definitely indispensable. Although they are not eaten openly, there are still people selling them behind the scenes.

Song Wenbin told Su Tina: "Call and get in touch. Once we get in touch, we'll go buy it."
