At this time, one of the fishing boats paused slightly, and the net that was put down seemed to be pulled by something on the bottom of the sea.

"Stop, stop first. Fang Zhen shouted.

The fishing boat stopped for a while, and other boats noticed something unusual and stopped sailing. In addition, in view of the lack of fuel for the salvage boats, everyone immediately arranged for the fuel to be replenished from the large fishing boats.

"A big oil drinker!"

"But no, when you come out, you have to spend hundreds of thousands, or even millions, on fuel, and ordinary people will definitely not be able to afford it. If the harvest is not good, it will really be lost. The guys on the boat chattered.

They also know that these three ships have the ability to burn oil. At first, I was dumbfounded by listening to them. At that time, I thought, if there is no harvest, wouldn't it be miserable?

Even if you are a multi-millionaire, you have to join the beggar gang after a few empty trips!

"What's the matter with that ship?"

"I don't know, it's malfunctioning, right?"

"I heard that the fishing nets were caught by objects on the bottom of the sea. ”

"Trouble, a fishing net is broken, and we can't buy back half a year's salary. "This is a fact, the fishing nets on fishing boats are relatively high-grade now, and a fishing net is tens of thousands.

Wei Hangtong Guò Haizhu observed and was surprised to find that there was an ancient ship on the bottom of the sea, with sails. Now, the nets are hanging on the tall sail pole.

Judging by its style, it should be an ancient merchant ship before the Opium War, and it is also a Western ship.

What's more, Wei Hang found that there was a lot of gold on the ship, all of which were a big piece, a big piece, piled up into a big push. He estimated that there were at least three tons!

The sail poles have been eroded by the sea, but they are almost rotten.

On the fishing boat, Fang Zhen and they adjusted the trolling gang and hoisted the fishing nets up. The pole was suddenly disconnected from the middle, and the upper section was pulled onto the boat with the net.

"There's wood on the bottom of the sea, too?" the new boat guy was very surprised!

to their cognition. There can't be trees on the bottom of the sea, right? How can there be wood? Could it be that this was once an island and then sank?

"What's so strange about that? It should be a shipwreck. Muzi and the others laughed.

"Huh, this seems to be the pole of the sail, right?" Chen Jianliang said after a few glances.

After scanning the sonar system on the ship, everyone can be sure that it is indeed a wreck, and we don't know if there is a treasure in this wreck. Also, this is a deep water area, so it's a bit difficult to explore.

"How deep is this?" Chen Jianliang asked.

He was very interested in the shipwreck, the salvage ship, which had been idle for several days, burning oil every day. Tens of thousands, tens of thousands of pieces were burned.

"More than 400 meters deep. The members of the cab immediately responded.

At this depth, it is a bit troublesome for people to go down, even if you wear a diving suit, you can reach that deep, and there are not many people on board.

"Third child, do you want to go down and have a look?" Chen Jianliang said.

Others are also looking forward to it, and if it is another valuable shipwreck, maybe they will have additional gains. Just last time, they won a lot of bonuses.

Wei Hang nodded. Put on your wetsuit, put on your waterproof headlamp and dive.

Soon, he came to the location of the wreck and saw the full view of the Western merchant ship. More than seventy meters in length. In ancient times, it was definitely a big ship.

Many things on the ship have been eroded beyond recognition, but there are some special markings that are clear, allowing Wei Hang to know the origin of the wreck immediately.

If he guessed correctly. This should be the merchant ship of the Netherlands during the period of Western colonialism.

Not far away, he also saw several sunken ships. It's not the same, Wei Hang guessed that it was an ancient warship.

The development of ancient warships went through two periods: galleys and sails. The hull structure of the galley warship is wooden, the ship is slender and long, the draft is shallow, the freeboard is low, and it is mainly propelled by manpower paddles and rocking, supplemented by sails when downwind. Galleys are equipped with cold weapons, and most of them use ramming and hand-to-side warfare in combat, which are mainly limited to inland rivers, lakes and coastal navigation operations.

The one in front of me was a sailboat before the steam engine ship, and its hull was also wooden, with a deep draft, a high freeboard, a cocked bow and stern, and a multi-masted sail, with sails as the main power, supplemented by oars.

Compared with the galley warship, the displacement, seafaring performance, and ocean-going combat capability of the galley warship have been greatly improved, and the main weapon is the front-loading smoothbore gun, and the combat method is mainly to carry out artillery battles between the warships of both sides at a distance of tens of meters to 1,000 meters, supplemented by a certain amount of broadside warfare.

If Wei Hang is not mistaken, the huge fleet led by the Ming Dynasty navigator Zheng He made seven voyages to the Western Ocean. The largest "treasure" ship he rode on was about 137 meters long, 56 meters wide, with nine masts and 12 sails, and was equipped with many firearms, making it the largest sailing ship in the world at that time.

The reason why Wei Hang is so sure that this is a Dutch shipwreck is because this shipwreck is very stylish, and the Netherlands will come up with such a strange ship.

In the 17th century, the sailors of the English merchant ships were armed, so their ships needed harder wood, while the Dutch ships were almost not equipped with weapons, so the Dutch ships were cheap to build, and it was also cheap to use Dutch ships to transport goods, so the Netherlands became the sea coachmen of Europe.

Previously, typical European merchant ships were built with platforms that could be used to mount artillery, which effectively prevented pirate attacks. The Dutch were the first to venture out to build a merchant ship that could only transport goods and not be equipped with artillery.

The trade-off for this was that every voyage became a risky gamble of fate, but it had the advantage of low shipbuilding costs, half the price of British ships, and thus, low freight rates for goods. Even so, the Dutch were not satisfied, and in order to make as much profit as possible, they added a special design to the ships.

Its design is unique, it has a large belly, so the hull is large and round. And the deck is small. This is done because, in Scandinavia, the tax paid by the ship depends on the width of the deck, and the narrower the deck, the less money is paid, so the Dutch man-made ship has a small deck and a large belly, and the more profitable it is.

After a while, Wei Hang picked up a piece of gold weighing a few catties and floated it.

"How's it going?" asked the man on the boat.

Wei Hang raised the yellow, orange and orange gold in his hand, and the eyes of the people on the boat widened. Chen Jianliang was even more excited, and immediately began to command the salvage ship to get up.

"How big is the shipwreck, how many treasures are there?" he immediately asked Wei Hang.

"The ship is quite large, and there are only some gold and silver on it, several tons!"

Hearing Wei Hang's words, all the people on the boat were beaten with chicken blood. One of the purposes of going to sea is to hunt for treasures, and everyone knows the bottom of their hearts.

"Damn! It's going to be big this time. ”

Don't mention what catch, the previous harvest can also be ignored. A few tons of gold, an absolute eye-catcher. The current price of gold, a ton of gold is worth 300 to 400 million yuan, and it feels terrifying to think about it.

"Damn, let's get an undersea probe in the future! Otherwise, if it goes deeper, I won't be able to go down." Wei Hang said.

This remark won Chen Jianliang's approval, and he will definitely deal with the seabed often in the future, and it is also appropriate to buy undersea probes. That kind of thing is still high-tech, the top ones can't get it, and the ordinary ones can dive one or two thousand meters, as long as the funds are sufficient, it's not a big problem.

At present, the domestic Jiaolong can dive more than 7,000 meters and can carry people down.

It is said that once the target is found on the seabed, the "Jiaolong" does not need to sit on the bottom like most foreign deep submersibles, but the pilot drives to the corresponding position, "fixes" the position, and maintains a fixed distance from the target, which is convenient for the manipulator to operate. Under the internal and external interference such as the swaying of the submarine currents and the shaking of the entire submersible driven by the movement of the manipulator, it is commendable to achieve accurate "hovering".

"This time I went back, and I asked someone to get one abroad. Chen Jianliang said.

Verbally, it is in favor of domestic production, but sometimes, domestic things are really not very reassuring. Especially this kind of easy to threaten life safety, Chen Jianliang thinks it is better to be safe.

Of course, there is another reason, it is difficult to buy such products in China.

You must know that there are less than 100 manned submersibles of various types in use in the world, of which only 12 have dived to a depth of more than 1,000 meters, and the number of deeper submersibles is even less, and the countries that currently have manned submersibles at depths of more than 6,000 meters include China, the United States, Japan, France and Russia.

"It's not easy to do it abroad, is it?" said the playboy.

He had also heard of that kind of thing, which was very rare for civilian use, and almost all of them were used for scientific research.

"Some low-tech requirements, as long as you have money, submarines can be brought back. Qian Wenji replied.

In Russia, as long as you have money, Russian weapons may be delivered to your door, but I am afraid that you will not dare to ask for them.

There are also some manned submersibles that are civilian, and the use of them is not prohibited in Western countries in the United States, and the price is not unacceptably high.

Therefore, it is entirely possible for Chen Jianliang to get one back from abroad.

In fact, it is also sold in China, and if you have a way, you can get some good ones.

There's no way, when Wei Hang is resting, I have to trouble him to go down. More than 400 meters, he alone can go down on the boat, and the others can't stand it. Even Daniel Zhang and them, accustomed to diving, are still going up and down at three hundred meters.

It's still the previous salvage method, and I don't plan to drag the wreck up, as long as I get the gold and silver, everything will be fine.

When buckets of gold were pulled onto the boat, almost all the people on board gathered around, holding a piece of gold and touching it. Although they don't have a share, it's not bad to have a good time!

"I have to say, it's really quick to make money like this. Muzi and the others couldn't help but say.

These gold and silver are processed out, that is, more than one billion, what do you do to make money so fast?

"Lao Wei, I will also take a stake in your overseas business!" Qian Wenji and the others were moved.

Seeing Wei Hang's big fishing in the ocean, they couldn't help but want a piece of the pie.

"Let's go back and talk about it!" (To be continued......)
