The first batch of parts for the tunnel boring machine arrived slightly earlier than Perfikot expected. Andrew, who personally escorted all the parts over, explained to Perfikot, "In fact, when the telegram was sent, we were already at sea. Plus, with the favorable ocean current in early spring, we indeed arrived about three days earlier than expected."
"Is that so? It seems you'll take more time going back?" Perfikot casually asked upon hearing Andrew's explanation.
"Not necessarily, we'll take the outer sea route on the way back, which can avoid the ocean current. Although it might be a bit rough, it won't be a problem." Andrew had consulted the captain carefully on the way over and had a comprehensive understanding of this route.
After all, he estimated that he would be traveling this route frequently in the next year or two, and being unfamiliar could cause delays.
