Chapter 112: This Is My Territory

Through three consecutive days of sea state observation, the first batch of experts involved in the salvage of the wreck also learned more about the situation in the Guijian area. To the excitement of the experts, two more wrecks were found after two days of underwater searching.

Although the three wrecks are located in different sea areas, they are all located in the reef area of the ghost stream. Based on the three-dimensional mapping of the ancient shipwreck, the expert group quickly came to a conclusion. The first shipwreck to be discovered should be a cargo ship from the Zhu Dynasty.

The other two shipwrecks, one of which should also be a cargo ship during the Zhu Dynasty, while the other should be later, belonging to the shape of a ship that only existed during the Qing Dynasty. In any case, the salvage value of the three wrecks is extremely high.

As the discoverer of the first shipwreck, Zhuang Haiyang also knew the news and congratulated these hard-working experts. However, to the team's frustration, they did not find a route for salvage vessels to enter.

Originally, when some experts suggested whether it was possible to blast some reefs and open up a route, some experts soon shook their heads and said: "Detonating the submarine reef will cause great damage and pollution, and this salvage method is not advisable at all!"

"What then? The big salvage ships can't get in, and we can't salvage the wrecked ship as a whole. ”

In the face of the opinions of the experts, Wang Mingcheng, as the team leader, also had a headache and said: "The No. 1 shipwreck, after measurement, the water level at low tide is between 115 and 120 meters, and the water level reaches 130 meters at high tide.

The rest of the No. 2 and No. 3 wrecks were salvaged below 100 meters. In particular, the No. 3 wreck is nearly 180 meters deep from the surface of the sea at its deepest point. It is almost impossible to salvage the whole body in such deep waters. ”

"What then? Selective salvage?"

Hearing what an expert said, Wang Mingcheng thought for a while and said: "Make a report first, send a group of professional diving team members over, and clean up the buried and sunken sludge first." The first ship was salvaged, and the other two were postponed. ”

"Yes!

First clean up the buried and sunken sludge, and first look at the damage of the wreck. If it is too rotten, it will not be salvaged as a whole at all, and it will naturally save a lot of effort, just clean up the materials on the sunken ship.

Regarding the salvage plan discussed by the expert group, Zhuang Haiyang, as the landlord, also quickly knew. Although I have thought about it, I can take the initiative to apply to participate in the salvage. But after thinking about it in the end, he still felt that it was better not to participate.

With the rapid formation of the salvage team, there is no need for Zhuang Haiyang to purchase materials. The government directly procured a batch of daily necessities, and with the rapid arrangement of the security team, the rest of the idle old houses were also arranged into temporary dormitories.

Sun Xingyuan, who was in charge of logistics affairs, also said with a smile: "Xiaozhuang, these furniture and daily necessities, when the salvage work is over, I will send you for free." When the time comes, how about you waive some more accommodation fees?"

"Team Sun, when did I say that I would charge you for your accommodation? If you want to live, you can live as you like, no money!"

"That won't work! Since these old houses belong to you now, and you have spent money to repair them, we will definitely have to pay the fees. In addition, in view of your contribution, we will also give you a bonus when the salvage work is over. ”

Finally hearing that there was a bonus, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "Team Sun, how many?"

"I really don't know about this! Come to think of it, it depends on what can be salvaged from the wreck, and if it is worth a lot, the bonus should be more. In short, the country will not treat meritorious people badly, so you can rest assured. ”

After a few days of contact, Sun Xingyuan also knew that Zhuang Haiyang's ability and personality were excellent. Originally, the maritime department planned to give him a bonus for the previous rescue of a crew member in distress. But the problem is that Zhuang Haiyang didn't think about getting it at all.

Now that the shipwreck has been discovered, and the maritime department has been given the opportunity to receive awards for meritorious service, the maritime department will naturally reward Zhuang Haiyang. If someone else discovers the wreck, if they have the ability, they will secretly salvage it themselves.

Taking the opportunity of salvaging the wreck, the maritime department and government departments of Nanzhou Island also hope to do a publicity. That is, if a wreck is found to have been salvaged without permission, it will be punished by law. If you report it, there will be a generous reward.

Incentives like this are common in coastal cities. For example, fishermen salvage underwater detectors set up by foreign armies is not new in fishermen's circles, and fishermen receive government incentives every year.

With the old houses that have been cleaned up, they have been filled with the salvage teams stationed in one after another, and Zhuang Haiyang has also had many temporary neighbors. And his vegetable garden has been frequented recently.

Considering the large number of people living on Nanshan Island, the salvage team also temporarily built a shed kitchen to provide three meals a day for the salvage team. As a landlord, Zhuang Haiyang still lives a quiet fishing life.

Seeing the fish and crabs caught by Zhuang Haiyang, Sun Xingyuan, who was in charge of logistics, came to me again and said: "Xiaozhuang, sell these fish and crabs to me, how about it? ”

"Okay, but my fish are all good, you can't give the price too cheap, I rely on this for food!"

Who doesn't know, you're a good fisherman. Your income is several times higher than mine!"

"Then what can you do! Your job can ensure harvest in drought and flood! In my profession, I rely on the sky and the sea to eat!"

"If you agree, then you have to make sure you have a certain amount of seafood every day from now on. In addition, Mr. Wang, they prefer to eat the greens in your vegetable garden, how much they have picked at that time, I will count them for you, and then settle the bill at the end, how about it?"

"Okay, this is obviously a good thing to send me money, how could I refuse?"

After tasting the greens grown in the Zhuang Ocean Vegetable Garden, and then eating the bulk vegetables purchased from the town, those experts with a weak taste immediately ate a difference. The result is obvious, the expert directly said that he wanted to eat the vegetables grown by Zhuang Haiyang.

In desperation, Sun Xingyuan talked directly to Zhuang Haiyang. Even if Zhuang Haiyang doesn't care, on behalf of the official, he is responsible for the logistics of the salvage team, and Sun Xingyuan is not good at taking advantage of Zhuang Haiyang, and if it is passed on, the impact will be very bad.

In a word, the salvage team stationed on Nanshan Island, although Zhuang Haiyang lost its former tranquility, it also added a lot of excitement. Compared with other fishermen, they cannot enter the surrounding sea at all, but Zhuang Haiyang can come and go freely.

Every day, we leave early and return late to catch enough seafood to supply the salvage team. Although they are all billed for the time being, the price is still good. After all, Sun Xingyuan, who was in charge of procurement, also knew that the seafood caught by Zhuang Haiyang was good.

If you really want to send it to the town to sell, it is estimated that the price will be higher than the purchase price he gave. In addition, Zhuang Haiyang can always get high-quality seafood, and the members of the salvage team think that this food is really good.

It's a little more expensive, so that the members can eat satisfactorily, which is what Sun Xingyuan, who is in charge of logistics, needs most. It's just that what Zhuang Haiyang didn't expect was that the diving team sent above a week later turned out to be someone he knew.

Looking at the salvage team members who were dining, Zhuang Haiyang took a closer look and said, "Iron Bull?"

The salvage team member who was shouted looked up, and immediately said with surprise and appreciation: "Ocean, why are you here?"

"This is my territory, I'm not here, why are you here?"

After hugging each other affectionately, they hammered each other, and Zhuang Haiyang also asked happily. The reason why he is happy is that this salvage team member nicknamed 'Iron Bull' is his comrade-in-arms when he first served.

Compared with the original time when he chose to retire from the army, the other party stayed in the team and transferred to a non-commissioned officer. It's just that he hasn't been in contact for a few years, and Zhuang Haiyang doesn't know if he is still serving now. Judging from the other party's hairstyle, Zhuang Haiyang felt that he should still be in service.

That means that the divers who sit and dine with him are likely to be from his old unit. But if you think about it carefully, the salvage team needs elite divers, and they also have to abide by confidentiality discipline, who will they look for if they don't look for troops?
