Chapter 124: Million Dollar Prize

Ride the wind and swim in the sea...

Nope.

There is only an endless sea of water, with no end in sight.

Jiang Hao has been adrift at sea for more than two months, has experienced storms, seen whales, and been chased by sharks.

He nested in the shriveled life raft, the fresh water in the original life raft has been consumed, and now there are some stored in it, which is the rainwater received during the storm, and it is estimated that it can last for half a month.

As for the bottle of champagne, he had drunk it a long time ago, and the bottle hung in the bow of the ship and became a tool for filling water.

Food was also running out, and after the storm, the basket containing the dried salted fish fell into the sea, leaving him with most of his food, and now he has only a few papayas and a few coconuts left.

He is reluctant to eat these now.

He began to hunt again, and the wilderness survival book says that the fish in the sea, the spine and eyes are all fresh water, which can be used to replenish water, and dolphins also need fresh water, and they rely on the fresh water in the fish to replenish the water they need.

Cutting open a fish, Jiang Hao sucked off the fresh water from his two eyes and spine, and the big fish was thrown directly onto the raft, and sat down weakly, in such an environment, he didn't know how long he could last.

......

Woo~~

Woo woo~~~

Just when Jiang Hao was drowsy from the sun, he was suddenly woken up by a few whistles, and he got up as soon as he got up, and saw a huge freighter slowly moving forward in the distance.

Jiang Hao's heart suddenly gave birth to a burst of ecstasy.

"Hey, there's someone here, help, SOS."

Jiang Hao picked up a shirt and waved it vigorously in the direction of the big boat.

Thank God

The big ship deflected slightly and headed towards Jiang Hao.

He found himself.

Jiang Hao felt like he was crying with joy.

After some hard work, Jiang Hao was finally rescued, he was pulled onto the deck by the crew, and many people came to watch, including the captain of the ship.

At this time, Jiang Hao's hair was unkempt and his face was full of beard, his upper body was bare, and he only had a rag around his waist, and he was a wild man.

"Thank you, if you don't show up, I don't even know if I'll be able to hold on." Jiang Hao thanked weakly.

His gratitude is absolutely heartfelt.

"Oh man, I don't know what you've been through, it looks like you've been adrift at sea for a long time." The captain asked in surprise.

"Yes, the plane was caught in a storm, and after I was shipwrecked, I was blown by the waves to a desert island, where I lived for a year, and then I made a raft and mustered up the courage to leave the island, and I drifted on the sea for more than two months." Jiang Hao said.

And all the people were amazed,

Living on an isolated island for a year and drifting at sea for more than two months, isn't this the modern Robinson.

"I really admire your strength, man, let's take a picture." After the captain finished speaking, he stepped forward to hug Jiang Hao, and a guy next to him picked up a camera and took pictures of the two.

Jiang Hao's appearance as a savage is frozen in the photo.

Then Jiang Hao was taken care of, and after changing into a crew uniform, he hung up his thick beard with a razor, revealing his true face.

During the meal, Jiang Hao was once again a little moved and wanted to cry, although it was only the simplest crew food, but these things were so delicious in Jiang Hao's mouth.

Jiang Hao is very lucky, this is an American ship, and he can follow this ship directly back to the United States.

The captain walked over, put a glass of red wine in front of Jiang Hao, and said, "Man, I told a reporter friend of mine about your story by phone, he is very interested in your affairs, I don't know if I can report it, I want to ask for your opinion." ”

"If he could, he was going to do an interview with you after he got off the ship, and those pictures, he was going to post them in the newspaper."

"Of course there is no problem", Jiang Hao did not refuse, after all, people saved themselves, this little request is nothing.

The freighter traveled on the sea for more than ten days, and during these ten days, Jiang Hao received full recuperation and his health improved day by day.

After arriving at the port, Jiang Hao said goodbye to the crew and thanked them here, the captain took Jiang Hao to meet his reporter friend, an old guy in his fifties, named Bunker, Bunker inquired about Jiang Hao's situation in detail, and finally sighed: "Man, you make me feel admired, you survived in such a difficult situation, I have read Robinson Crusoe since I was a child, and I once had the idea of living alone on the island, but unfortunately I don't dare, I doubt that I will die if I don't live for more than a week." ”

"I also learned about your situation from FedEx before, and they told me that a year and three months ago, they did have a plane crashed in the South Pacific, and they also sent a ship to search for that area, but found nothing, and finally determined that all the crew members were killed, and the domestic media reported it at that time."

"I didn't expect you to miraculously survive, FedEx said to me, if you go ashore, contact them as soon as possible, and they will pick you up and go home." As he spoke, he handed Jiang Hao a sticky note, and on it was a phone number.

"Thank you." Jiang Hao took the note and thanked him.

Bunker laughed, "Your story is so good, I'll write a long story and publish it in our newspaper, and I guess you'll see it in two days." ”

Saying goodbye to Bunker and the captain, Jiang Hao called FedEx, and after FedEx knew that Jiang Hao had landed, he immediately sent a local FedEx supervisor to contact him and arranged a hotel for him.

Later, he took Jiang Hao to the hospital to check his body, and the doctor's conclusion was that Jiang Hao's body was very weak now, and his long-term malnutrition and monotonous food had caused him to have many minor problems and needed to recuperate.

Jiang Hao had been mentally prepared for this result.

Two days later, fly back to FedEx headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee.

Chuck returned, received a warm welcome, was greeted personally by the owner with management, and threw a big party.

Subsequently, the company announced that it would give Jiang Hao a compensatory reward of one million US dollars, and the previous death allowance would not be recovered.

His death benefit has been given to Chuck's younger brother.

In this way, Jiang Hao suddenly became a millionaire, and countless people came to celebrate him, and perhaps some people still felt that Jiang Hao had earned it in a year to exchange for a million.

But who knows how much suffering they have encountered and what kind of loneliness they have experienced in their life on the isolated island when they are still adrift.

"Boss, my body is still very weak, and the doctor advised me to recuperate for a while, so I am ready to resign." Jiang Hao said.

"Oh, what a shame, well, you do need to recuperate, Chuck, you're a guy with a strong will, I appreciate that, and when you want to work, come to me, FedEx still welcomes you." The boss said generously.

"Thank you."
