Sending away the "monitors" who got in the way of the design institute of Jiaotong University, this survey ship was basically equivalent to a major purge.

Only Gu Kun's henchmen whose loyalty had been tested were left on the ship.

It's time to do something about the off-the-beaten-by-kill business.

However, it still takes two or three days to do some extra preparation before setting sail.

"Long Wu, this money is given to you, you go to Kuching and buy these marine equipment. Pay attention to buying secretly, cash transactions, and don't leave buyer information. ”

"Yes, boss, I know what to do. ”

Long Wu agreed.

It turned out that Gu Kun asked him to buy some special pontoons, containers, hooks and other accessories for salvaging shipwrecks, as well as some utensils for temporary protection of ancient cultural relics.

After all, the chartered ship is not for salvage, but for surveying the topography of the seabed. Therefore, the original equipment of this ship may be very accurate in locating the wreck, but the fishing link is not very professional, and it must be slightly modified to get twice the result with half the effort.

In addition, most of the cargo in the wreck is relatively well protected in the underwater environment of high-pressure and oxygen-neutral, and once fished out, most of the other perishables will quickly oxidize except for porcelain and lacquerware.

For black-hearted antiquities dealers, it doesn't matter, they just sell porcelain, lacquer and jewelry anyway.

Those things that are easy to perish, such as ancient silk, cannot be sold in the relevant market because collectors do not have professional equipment to store them, or professional storage is not conducive to display.

But Gu Kun is by no means a vote and leaves, he has a sense of social responsibility, and he hopes to open a museum in Lanfang and become a celebrity in the future. Therefore, buy some professional nitrogen-filled protective containers, once you catch ancient silk and clothing, you can also put them in nitrogen containers to prevent rapid oxidation and decay, and donate them to museums when the time comes.

While Long Wu and Chen Li went to separately purchase the tools needed for the salvage of the sunken ship, Gu Kun himself took advantage of the two days to fly to Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, and asked to meet a Dutch businessman.

The porcelain he fished back before was handed over to the other party for sale, and by the way, he took this opportunity to talk about the follow-up long-term cooperation.

Gu Kun also had a last resort to find the Dutch.

As we all know, the colonies in Southeast Asia at that time, except for the Philippines, which were Spain/Oceanic countries, were mainly divided between Brittany and the Netherlands.

Later, Malaysia was mainly composed of cloth colonies, while Indonesia was an independent Dutch colony.

But Gu Kun has a grudge against the Bretons, and the Bretons are more xenophobic and like to spy on the seller's information and cut off the seller's business, so he can only go to Jakarta to find Dutch merchants to sell goods.

This concern is not unfounded, because the most famous shipwreck thief in history in the South Seas is Michel Hatcher of Brittany.

This Hatcher not only illegally fished ships in the territorial waters of Malaysia, India, Vietnam and other countries, but also violated the territorial waters of China as early as 1985 and stole away the "Gitter Mosen" merchant ship (the ship type is a galleon, which should be known to everyone who has played the Age of Discovery) sunk by the Dutch East India Company in the South China Sea in 1752, and took away 120,000 pieces of foreign trade porcelain and hundreds of thousands of silver pesos and more than 100 gold bricks weighing two pounds each during the Qianlong period.

Therefore, the cloth shipping channels on the Nanyang side are all friends of Michelle Hatcher, or have an indirect control relationship with him, and Gu Kun will definitely not hit the door.

The Dutch were relatively unethical, they had always been purely businessmen, and they could even give loans to the enemies who attacked their homeland during the war, as long as you left them plenty of profit margins.

Doing business, Gu Kun likes this kind of purchaser who doesn't recognize his relatives and only recognizes money.

......

After some tossing and turning, Gu Kun finally found a collaborator named Van Bilson.

Very classic Dutch name, surname "Fan".

There is another reason why he chose this person, because Gu Kun had shipped to this guy before he was reborn - it's just that in his previous life, Gu Kun's development was relatively slow, and around 2005, his business scale expanded to the first time that he was qualified to sell this kind of goods.

Gu Kun vaguely remembered that when he first found the other party in his previous life, the other party was already in his forties, so he estimated that even if he was ten years in advance, he should already be doing this business, and the result was right.

The two sides sat down and evaluated, and tacitly knew that these dozens of boxes of porcelain-based goods would be sold to the auction house in The Hague, and as long as the child did not drop the chain, it would be very easy to auction for six or seven hundred thousand US dollars (after deducting the handling fee and commission, the net income).

Because it was the first time to cooperate, he was eager to open up the business route, and he was familiar with it, Gu Kun also gave in a little way, and finally said that he would directly sell the deal for 500,000 US dollars, and Van Birsson would give him cash, so he didn't have to worry about the follow-up auction.

Always leave a few percent of the profit for the other party, otherwise who will take the risk of cooperating with you.

"It's a pleasure to work together and hopefully the next time we work together, we will meet in The Hague. When shaking hands and saying goodbye, Gu Kun said some encouraging words, suggesting that he might soon have a new source of goods on hand.

"It's a pleasure to serve you, Mr. Gu, my door here is always open for you. ”

......

After buying the equipment and paving the shipping channels, all the preparations are finally in place.

Sunday, July 10. Gu Kun returned to the villa in Lanfang Harbor, prepared to rest for the night, and set sail early tomorrow morning.

When he got home, Gu Kun saw in advance that the upstairs and downstairs of the house were brightly lit, not like only a maid cleaning the house.

"It's supposed to be the summer vacation. Before Gu Kun entered the door, he rubbed the bridge of his nose and remembered this.

Since he returned to Lanfang in late June, he has been busy without stopping. At that time, my sister Gu Pan was still preparing for the final exam, and now the summer vacation has been over for a week.

"Brother, you've worked hard...... I thought at least you would be back the day before yesterday. A while ago, when I was just on summer vacation, Sister Lin also came to play with me, but I don't know when you will come back, her family is strictly controlled, and she can't stay for a long time, so she went back again. ”

Gu Pan originally had a lot of complaints to say, but when he saw his brother's tired appearance, his nose was sore, so he still held back.

It is not a natural thing for an elder brother to raise a younger sister, you must know gratitude.

No one owes anyone, and they are not qualified to complain about "those who make a lot of money do not care about their families".

Gu Kun coughed lightly: "I went to Jakarta for two days to discuss business. I'm going to sea tomorrow. ”

Gu Pan tried hard to express himself: "It's summer vacation, I can help you do things, take me to the sea together." I'm definitely not going to hold you back. ”

"Do you know what secrecy is?" Gu Kun said coldly.

Gu Pan lowered his head and reflected: "I know, you mean that you can't say anything to anyone, including Sister Lin—but I haven't leaked anything that can't be said in real secrets."

It didn't matter if you dealt with Chen Mingcheng at the beginning, I saw that you were acting in a high-profile manner, so I bragged in front of Sister Lin. Anything you've kept low-key, I've never said. ”

Gu Kun poured himself a glass of gin, recalled it carefully, and confirmed that this was the case, before he was relieved.

"Then you can follow the boat, this time I told you in advance, nothing is allowed to be leaked, don't say anything unexpectedly. ”

"I'm going to cook for you, you rest early. ”

After eating dinner made by his sister, Gu Kun rested early and didn't say anything all night.

Early the next morning, he came to the dock refreshed and boarded the boat with his sister and Ma Tsai.

"Pull the anchor and set sail, the left rudder course is 255, the direction of Lijiapo, full speed. ”
