Need help getting Chromebook to work with my docking station

I have this docking station:
Lenovo ThinkPad USB C Dock Gen 2
And this chromebook:
Lenovo IdeaPad 3
I have two of these monitors:
Lenovo ThinkVision 24''
Since theres only one HDMI port on the dock, I've connected one monitor to the dock via HDMI using this adapter:
j5create USB Type A adapter
The other monitor is plugged into the sole HDMI port on the docking station.
I plugged the chromebook into the dock via USB C, but no dice. Then I thought I might need a driver for the HDMI adapter but realized there was no driver available for the Chrome OS though j5's website.
I'm terrible at technology. Help would be greatly appreciated and would like to donate to a charity of the choice of the helper for their time.

Not all USB-C ports provide video output.

Here is the reference chart.
Here is the photo of the side of your laptop....
Looks like it's 10x speed with no video or power delivery.

Don't about it. If you really wanted to do something, donate to your local scout troop.
