Is this just a joke? If not, do you have a better source to back up the suggestion?
I'm asking because it's a fictional story and the sink ships because of the wet rice expanding. It doesn't actually save the ship, though it does likely delay its demise.
That's what I'm guessing, but I know basically nothing about cargo ships. I'm googling around to see if there are any potential prevention methods along the lines of "just add a bit of rice to your ore..." 0_o

It must be a joke because the rice took down the ship.

I would assume if you dropped your cargo in water, putting it in rice should dry it out. Like your phone...
