Chapter 472: Breaking the Ship and Seeing the Treasure
Except for a few new team members, the crew members who went to sea with the distant-water fishing vessel this time have all participated in one or several shipwreck salvage operations. As for the rules for salvaging the wreck, these team members still know in their hearts.
If you really want to talk about the rules, many team members understand the most important one, that is, in the process of salvaging the wreck, everything must follow Zhuang Haiyang's instructions. Once Zhuang Haiyang gives an order, all team members must obey unconditionally.
Look at the shipwreck that is gradually emerging from the mud on the bottom of the sea, and a few rusty guns. Even if there are a lot of rust spots, you can still see the color of this cannon from the peeling rust spots, which can confirm that this should be a bronze cannon.
Judging from the structure of the wreck, many salvage team members can recognize that this does not seem to be the style of the ancient warship in their country. If you think about the sea area where you are now, there are really not many warships that roamed here in ancient times.
This also means that this shipwreck, equipped with bronze cannons, should be a ship piloted by foreign troops or former colonists!
Zhuang Haiyang, who was staying next to guide and guard, saw that everyone seemed to be a little disappointed, and said without saying anything: "Junzi, your group will go back to the ship to rest first, and then change to the second group to come down, and strive to finish it as soon as possible." ”
"Understood! The whole group has it, and it's starting to float!"
As Zhu Junhong conveyed the instructions, the team members who first cleaned up the dredging next time, although they were very curious about whether there were any good things in the wreck. But at this time, most of the wreck was cleaned up, and the follow-up team members of the second group also needed to continue to clean up some silt.
Only when the silt around the wreck is cleaned up and confirmed that it will not pose a threat to the wreck, will Zhuang Haiyang take people into the wreck and search the inside of the wreck. Whether there is anything good or not, wait until you enter the wreck and search for it.
If not, although Zhu Junhong and the others will feel regretful, they have nothing to regret. They have been very lucky to salvage the sunken ship this year. From beginning to end, it seems that no empty shipwreck has been fished.
Even the veteran team members already believed in their hearts that this shipwreck, which seemed to be a battleship, was afraid that there should be something. With Zhuang Haiyang's character, he still rarely looks away. With this somewhat blind confidence and anticipation, the group quickly returned to the fishing boat.
The second group commanded by Qian Yunpeng, after one group returned safely to the ship, dived into the location of the wreck alternately. Seeing that most of the sunken ships had been cleaned up, many team members said unexpectedly: "It seems to be an ancient warship!"
"Yes! Those cannons, I don't know if they are steel cannons or bronze cannons!"
Just when everyone was talking, Zhuang Haiyang also interjected at the right time: "It's a copper cannon! If there is nothing good on the ship, wait for these bronze cannons to be hoisted up." Pull it back to the company to clean up the rust spots and take them to auction, which should also sell for some money. ”
Hearing Zhuang Haiyang's introduction, many team members also smiled and said: "The copper cannon is good! The copper cannon is worth more than the steel cannon! Brothers, you have worked!"
Accompanied by Qian Yunpeng, he commanded everyone and began to carry out the work of dredging. It didn't take long for the entire silt near the ancient shipwreck to be cleared. At this time, Zhuang Haiyang pulled the sling and tied up a copper cannon directly.
Then he said through the communicator: "Lao Hong, start lifting! Remember, don't go too fast, things are a little heavy, take your time!"
"Roger!"
When the sling began to tighten slowly, Zhuang Haiyang instructed Qian Yunpeng and the other team members to stay away from the area where the sling was lifted vertically. This is also to ensure that during the lifting process, once the copper cannon slips down, it will not hit people.
Looking at the copper cannon that was slowly being hoisted away from the bottom of the sea, the other veteran team members immediately said: "Pengzi, do you want to dismantle those ship boards and remove all the copper cannons inside? This shipwreck looks a lot rotten!"
"Wait a minute! We'll listen to the ocean. ”
"Okay, then we'll wait. I hope that there will not be only a few bronze cannons on this sunken ship. ”
"It shouldn't be! There are still 3,000 nails in a broken ship! Not to mention a warship!"
While everyone was talking, they heard that the bronze cannon had been safely hoisted to the deck, and Zhuang Haiyang also said in a timely manner: "Lao Hong, put some baskets down." These bronze cannons, placed directly on the side of the deck, are covered with some tarpaulin. ”
"Roger!
Hong Wei, who stayed on the ship, also served as the ship's commander at this time. As for the security guards, after the diving team began to enter the water, they had already driven their lifeboats to the vicinity to stand on guard. On a deserted island not far away, you can see a lot of fires flashing in the past.
Wu Xingcheng and others, who stayed on the island, were also preparing supper for the crew. Obviously it was preparing dinner, but now it was temporarily changed to a supper, and these members of the cooking squad didn't think there was anything bad. After all, the division of labor is different!
If the salvage team can still return with a full load this time, then this supper is a celebration banquet, and it is natural to eat and drink well!
As several multiplying baskets fell to the bottom of the sea, Zhuang Haiyang commanded Qian Yunpeng and others to pick up these multiplier baskets. Standing around the wreck, he looked at it, frowned slightly, and said, "This ship is a bit bad!"
"Well, a lot of the planks look rotten. If you break through the hole, it should be dangerous. ”
Listening to Qian Yunpeng's words, Zhuang Haiyang thought for a while and said, "That's it! Start dismantling the ship's planks from here, and throw all the dismantled planks aside." During the demolition process, be careful that there are iron products on board. ”
"Understood, brothers, the guys, break the ship!"
Considering that it is dangerous to enter the ship to hunt for treasure, Zhuang Haiyang finally decided to dismantle the wreck. Anyway, the ship is already rotten, and after these planks are dismantled, they will be turned into nutrients for the sea in a few years.
When he encounters a place that is difficult to dismantle, Zhuang Haiyang will let the team members stand away and forcibly demolish it by himself. Looking at Zhuang Haiyang, who did not carry any diving equipment, but was like a fish in the sea, all the team members admired and envied.
"No wonder this guy has to go into the sea for hours every day. With such a deep water pressure, he was not affected in the slightest. Even, it is not even possible to float and breathe. This guy really deserves to be a fisherman!"
"That's a fisherman!
Regarding the small talk of these comrades-in-arms, Zhuang Haiyang also said helplessly: "Don't mutter! I'll have a communicator! Let's work! Remove the planks of the ship here, and you can almost search to see if there are any good things on the ship." ”
"Understood! We'll do the rest!"
The ancient shipwreck, which seemed to have a large tonnage and great strength, was quickly dismantled into a big hole under the joint efforts of everyone. Following the overhead illumination, some members of the team soon saw that there were several rusty muskets in the cabin.
In addition to muskets, there are also several skeletons that look more slender. It can also be seen from these skeletons that this should not be the bones of Asian Americans. Under Zhuang Haiyang's instructions, several comrades-in-arms stepped forward to restrain him.
Set it aside for the time being, wait for the shipwreck to be salvaged, and bury the bones on a desert island. In doing so, it can also be regarded as collecting the bones of the former owner of the wreck, so that they do not have to sleep in the sea forever, and have the opportunity to enjoy the treatment of being buried in the earth.
After a careful search, Qian Yunpeng quickly said: "Ocean, it doesn't seem to be anything good!"
"No hurry! This should be a cabin for crew activities, not a storage compartment. These rusty muskets are of little value, just throw them aside! Hang these two bronze cannons up, and then replace them with a third group. ”
"Okay! A few people, pull the slings over, and tie the two bronze cannons tightly. ”
Considering that the time of the two groups of dives is not short, Zhuang Haiyang still chose to change the group of people. Let the divers of each group have the opportunity to participate in the salvage of the wreck. In this way, they will feel at ease by enjoying the dividends from the salvage of the wreck.
If they don't participate in it, but participate in the dividends, they will also feel embarrassed. Other team members who contribute will also feel uncomfortable. Therefore, in order to take care of each group of team members, Zhuang Haiyang will also determine the working hours according to the situation.
Once exceeded, he rotates regardless of whether the work is over or not. In this way, it can also ensure that the team members involved in the diving and salvage will not cause physical injury. The veteran players have also become accustomed to this.
When the third group of diving team members came down, they saw two groups of salvage team members, and they didn't seem to have gained much. Many veteran players also began to mumble in their hearts, thinking that this time would be empty. Three rusty bronze cannons are still not very valuable when you think about it.
Seeming to feel everyone's worries, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "What's the hurry? I don't know, are all the good things left for the end? Don't worry, with such a big boat, we won't work in vain." ”
"Oh yes, ocean, you say, where next?"
"Tear down the planks over there, and then go straight from top to bottom. If you don't see the bottom of the boat, you don't call it a day, what do you think?"
"Then do it! Even if it's empty, it's going to be dismantled. ”
With the third group of divers, they began to join in the work of demolishing the wreck. The team members who re-dismantled a cabin section quickly said happily: "Ocean, there seem to be boxes in it, and there are scattered things!"
"Don't rush in yet, and remove all the planks from outside. Otherwise, it would be dangerous to pick up the contents later. This shipwreck has been buried for too long, and the planks are a little brittle, so be careful. ”
"Understood!"
Unlike everyone who expects a good harvest, Zhuang Haiyang knew that there were good things on the ship from the moment he organized the salvage. It's just that the salvage process looks more reasonable, so that you won't see the treasure as soon as it is dismantled!
As Zhuang Haiyang entered the place where the items were piled up, from the pile of things scattered, Zhuang Haiyang quickly took out a few black bumps and said: "Good thing! It should be silver ingots and scattered silver, take the basket and prepare to fill the silver." ”
"Here it is! Such a large pile of silver, it seems that this time I have found a treasure again. ”
Knowing that those things were all silver, everyone's mood naturally became excited. When the first basket of silver was hoisted onto the shipwreck, Wang Yanming and the others, who were staying on the ship, immediately laughed and said: "It seems that this ship is still not empty!"
"That's right! The three groups were so lucky that they were the first to open!"
"I hope that after the three groups are busy, we will have a chance to go into the water again." Salvaging shipwrecks is still the most enjoyable when picking up treasures. I just don't know if there are any other treasures besides this silver. ”
"Don't worry! Rest first, just wait for the announcement. ”
The people who said these words were undoubtedly a group of divers. For everyone involved in the salvage, everyone prefers the taste of picking up treasures from the sunken ship. Every time they find a treasure, these team members will feel full of joy.
On the other hand, Wang Yanming began to organize the team members to put all the salvaged silver ingots and scattered silver taels into the cleaned storage compartment. As for the inventory and cleaning, we have to wait until the wreck is salvaged.
As baskets of silver were salvaged from the water, some silver and gold coins could even be seen in them. Everyone on the ship also began to look forward to it. More people love these precious metals than antiques.
The people on the boat were full of joy, and the team members responsible for salvage under the sea were all working very hard. When they see a basket full of treasures, they all know that it is money. And they can share a small part of it.
Soon, someone said: "This guy in the ocean has a really poisonous eye! The shipwreck he found has never been empty!"
"Okay! Just know it, why say it? Is it possible, can he give you a few more dollars if he slaps the ocean twice?"
The comrades-in-arms who were ridiculed were not angry, and chatted while working. Once the silver hold had been cleared, the three groups continued to dismantle some of the hull and continue to push into the interior.
In addition to these precious metals, the team members also found a lot of utensils and antiques belonging to foreigners. Knowing that foreigners like to use silver to make utensils, these antiques that look rusty, the team members pick up and put them in baskets without dropping.
Seeing that the time was about the same, Zhuang Haiyang said again: "Taozi, your group is ready to float, change to a group." ”
"Okay, everyone, put your tools in place and get ready to float!"
Although they were a little reluctant, the members of the three groups also knew that they had unconsciously worked for a time that had reached the time stipulated by Zhuang Haiyang. To ensure that there is no damage to the body, rotation is also a matter of course.
After receiving Zhuang Haiyang's order, Zhu Junhong also smiled and said: "Haha, it seems that we have a chance to be responsible for the finish! Brothers, put on your equipment and prepare to dive again." You're all rested, aren't you?"
"Rest early! I didn't feel tired from the previous work!"
If you have money to make, you don't seem to feel tired. The most important thing is that with so many good things salvaged by the three groups, a group of team members who have been responsible for dredging before also hope to have the opportunity to participate in the treasure picking work and experience the fun of treasure hunting on a shipwreck.
There are only two groups of team members, but they feel a little regretful at the moment. Although they also hope that there will be a chance to replace one group later. But many of the veteran team members feel that they have little chance of going into the water again. That ship should be almost dismantled!
As everyone expected, with a group again going to sea to participate in the salvage of the wreck. The ancient shipwreck, which seems to be of considerable tonnage, has been dismantled. And the harvest of one group does not seem to be much worse than that of the third group.
Even, after the last few baskets of things were hoisted onto the boat, looking at the small pieces of black objects, Wang Yanming and the others were a little short of breath. The reason is simple, these black bar-shaped objects should be the most expensive gold bars.
This also means that the wreck salvaged this time should also be a treasure ship. And these things salvaged this time, I believe that the final value is not low. Correspondingly, the share they can get in the end should be very generous!
