After hearing what Zhang Yi said, Zhu Yunque smiled happily.

"Mr. Zhang, I didn't expect you to be so reasonable!"

She tilted her head and looked at Zhang Yi with sparkling eyes.

"My opinion of you has changed a lot now. I'm even starting to like you."

Su Nuanxi also said, "Although you often did some annoying things in the past, this time, I have to look up to you. You did a good job!"

Zhang Yi smiled and did not answer, but changed the subject.

"It's getting late, let's all go back and rest!"

He turned and walked away.

Seeing this, Lu Dahai hurriedly shouted over here: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang! I have something to ask you!"

A deep light flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes.

"Come and tell me if you have anything to say."

Lu Dahai followed Zhang Yi out the door. There were still some people from the lower cabin who had not left, including Lu Dahai's two brothers, Rong Lei and Yu Gang.

They all came to their senses and realized that the matter had not been resolved at all, so they stayed and asked Zhang Yi for an explanation.

"Mr. Zhang!"

"Mr. Zhang!"

……

Zhang Yi walked over and asked calmly, "Everyone, why aren't you going home yet? It's quite cold outside, can you bear it?"

The temperature of dozens of degrees below zero is indeed torturous.

They are not like Zhang Yi who wears the most advanced winter clothing.

But in order to have enough food, they still have to grit their teeth and stay here.

Lu Dahai said, "Mr. Zhang, this matter has not been resolved yet! Those stowaways have stayed. Can we increase our food supply? Otherwise, there won't be enough to eat."

A group of people nodded repeatedly, expressing their agreement with Lu Dahai's statement.

Zhang Yi glanced at him and said with a smile, "How much food do you think is stored on the ship?"

"We traveled two months from Huaxu Country to here. We didn't get any supplies on Yanliu Island, so we had to rush back."

"You seem to be a fisherman, you should know how much supplies are left on the boat in this situation."

When Lu Dahai heard this, his expression changed immediately.

Because according to his experience at sea, there would not be much supplies left on the ship at this time.

Zhang Yi sighed, "I was just trying to keep the ship supplied. I had no intention of bringing you along."

"But who made me kindhearted? I'll just have to take all of you back with me."

"Food needs must also be strictly controlled. Otherwise, everyone will starve to death in the end. Do you understand?"

At this moment, the passengers in the lower cabin finally understood how difficult it was for Zhang Yi.

Especially a few fishermen, they know better than anyone else how difficult it is to sail on the ocean.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, we've caused you trouble."

"But I saw that what other people on the boat were eating...was pretty good too!"

Yu Gang muttered something, then raised his head and looked at Zhang Yi's expression carefully.

Zhang Yi said, "They are all seafarers, so of course we must prioritize their food supply. Anyway, there's nothing I can do about this matter. Your food supply will be rationed."

He paused, then emphasized it again.

"It's the amount of food given out in the most reasonable way based on the number of people who initially boarded the ship."

"Now that there are more than twenty illegal immigrants, we should all grit our teeth, work hard, and show some spirit!"

"It's better for everyone to starve together than for them to die."

When Lu Dahai heard what Zhang Yi said, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to his mind.

Zhang Yi smiled and patted his shoulder. "Lu Dahai, right? You're a very nice person. I believe you can understand my approach."

"Food is limited. But with so many more people, no one can handle it."

At this point, Zhang Yi sighed: "If I had known this would happen, I would have controlled the number of people boarding the ship."

"With fewer people, won't there be enough food?"

After saying that, Zhang Yi turned and left, disappearing into the night.

Leaving Lu Dahai where he was, he lowered his head and pondered for a long time.

Rong Lei and Yu Gang came over and asked, "Brother Lu, what did Mr. Zhang mean? Did he help us solve the problem of food?"

Lu Dahai raised his head and glanced at his two brothers.

Then he slowly said, "As you can see."

Rong Lei and Yu Gang: "Huh? So is it solved or not?"

Lu Dahai sighed deeply: "You taste it, you taste it carefully."

A sinister look flashed in his eyes.

Subconsciously, he looked at the vast dark ice sea.

The ship is like an isolated island, and they are all survivors on the island.

However, conflicts will break out sooner or later due to food issues.

He vaguely realized that Zhang Yi was telling him what to do.

But he wasn't sure.

If he takes a wrong step, he will be in danger.

"Let's go back first! It's freezing outside."

Rong Lei hugged his arms and trembled.

Lu Dahai nodded, hugged his two brothers and walked down to the cabin.

On the other side, Zhang Yi had just returned when his way was blocked by Zhu Yunque.

"Mr. Zhang, are you leaving in a hurry?"

Zhu Yunque folded his arms and looked at Zhang Yi leisurely, with a strange look in his eyes.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem that hasn't been solved?"

Zhang Yi blinked and asked with a smile.

Zhu Yunque lowered his arm and said, "Come with me for a moment. I think we need to have a good talk about how to deal with this group of passengers who boarded the ship later."

She called the group of stowaways the later passengers.

"It was my fault for not greeting you before. But now that you have accepted them, you have to find a way to place them properly."

"So I hope you can solve their food problem. After all, it's not appropriate to let the passengers in the lower cabin go hungry all the time."

Zhang Yi was surprised and pointed at his nose in astonishment.

"Um...me?"

"No way, no way? Miss Zhu, please don't play such a joke on me."

Zhang Yi waved his hands repeatedly.

"Don't tell me you brought people on board but don't know how to solve their food problem?"

Zhang Yi shook his head decisively.

"This is impossible. Miss Zhu, you are such a smart woman, it is impossible for you to make such a stupid mistake. You must be kidding me!"

"That's really boring!"

Zhu Yunque stood there in a daze.

"I……"

Her expression was a little flustered.

In fact, when she was kind enough to help those stowaways get on board, she really didn't consider how those people would eat and drink.

They were just stuffed into the cabin and made to live with the people who had been in the lower cabin.

As the eldest daughter of the Zhu family, when has she ever worried about the daily necessities of life?
