Chapter 778: A New Treasure Map Under the Sea
In the following days, Weihang either got tired of Zhang Xueru, or went to various industries to "check the accounts". Overall, Weihang is quite satisfied.
In fact, if it weren't for his parents urging him to check, Wei Hang wouldn't have bothered to pay attention.
His main focus is still on the ocean, and all the industries in the village are handed over to his parents to take care of, and Zhang Xueru is also helping now. In the future, sister-in-law Zhang Xueqi will also join.
In other words, this big rear guard basically let go and handed it over to the family guards. His main purpose is to open up wealth to the ocean and try to get back the resources of the ocean.
The ocean occupies more than two-thirds of the planet, and it is impossible to calculate how many resources it contains.
Even Wei Hang, with a divine object like Haizhu, wants to fully exploit marine resources, it is also wishful thinking. He only needs to extract a small part of it, which is enough to enrich the eighteen generations, and make the village, the town, and even the entire city rich.
On this day, Chen Jianliang found a map of the distribution of undersea treasures, which was not a random sketch of the big road goods on the Internet, but a more specific distribution map. It looks like it's still a treasure map of some years.
It seems that this guy can't bear the loneliness again and is ready to go.
"All the treasures from the last time were sold?" Wei Hang asked.
"What is a fire sale? It's clearly a batch auction, okay?" Chen Jianliang rolled his eyes.
Not to mention, I caught so many treasures last time, and I haven't completely disposed of them yet. Needless to say, gold and silver agreed to be disposed of to the state.
For those jewelry, antiques, etc., they have conducted many auctions, causing the price of antiques in the entire antique market to generally drop.
In Weihang's words, the word fire sale is not too much.
In fact, their frequent auctions have really had a huge impact on the entire antiques market, completely disrupting the market of stable appreciation.
Wei Hang glanced at the picture twice, frowned, and said, "Is this the rhythm of going to Africa?"
The so-called shipwreck treasure is not far from a famous strait on the east coast of Africa, which is also within the boundaries of the high seas. According to the introduction, it was the period of European colonial rule, and the diamonds, gold, etc. plundered by Europeans in Africa were of immeasurable value, but at least they were more than one billion dollars.
"I haven't heard of this fleet, it can't be a pit man, right?
According to the picture, the shipwreck is a fleet, from Portugal, which has two teeth in Europe, and belongs to a fleet that has been completely destroyed. The specific information that has been handed down is not detailed and vague.
In the historical impression of Weihang, it seems that from the 16th century to the middle of the 19th century, this was the initial encroachment stage of the African continent by European colonizers, first with Spain's occupation of the northwest African coast, Portugal's occupation of both sides of the southern African continent and the island of Madagascar, and then the occupation of the gold coast of the Gulf of Guinea by Britain and France, as well as the coast of North Africa, and Egypt.
"It's really not true, who can guarantee it? In any case, it's worth exploring, isn't it?" Chen Jianliang now has an amazing obsession with treasure hunting under the sea.
Conservatively estimated, diamonds and gold worth more than $1 billion can be spared?
Besides, isn't it better to have unheard of underwater treasures? The more famous shipwreck treasures are annoying just the right to belong and salvage them.
For example, the famous "San Jose" has been in a lawsuit before the salvage has begun, and the two countries have been arguing.
Filled with gold bars, silver bars and coins from Peruvian gold mines, pearls from Panama, emeralds, amethysts and diamonds from the Andes, the San Jose is like the cave full of gold and silver in Ali Baba and the Forty.
The wreck, the Spaniards believed that the ship was the property of their ancestors and should be returned to them.
But the wreck was discovered by the Colombian government and is still within people's territorial waters.
With such a large fortune, no one is willing to give it up, but they don't dare to reach out first.
In fact, in this world, there are many undersea treasure ships, especially concentrated in the sea areas that were once colonized, or sea lines of communication.
"It's a bit deep, not very dry. Wei Hang recalled for a while and said.
The Strait of Mozambique, the longest strait in the world, is bounded by the island of Madagascar to the east and Mozambique to the west.
The strait is wide at both ends and narrow in the middle, with an average width of 450 km, with the widest point reaching 960 km at the northern end and 386 km at the narrowest point in the middle. Most of the water in the gorge is more than 2,000 meters deep, more than 3,000 meters at the northern and southern ends, about 2,400 meters in the middle, and the maximum depth is more than 3,500 meters, second only to the Drake Strait and the Bass Strait.
Salvage depths of more than a thousand meters will be a bit difficult. It is not very difficult to go down, after all, Weihang's fleet is equipped with relatively advanced manned submersibles in China, and a dive of three to five thousand meters is enough to deal with it.
"Moreover, this location, a bit close to Mozambique, will it be troublesome?"
Chen Jianliang seemed to have expected Wei Hang to say this, and said with a smile: "What's the trouble? On the Mozambican side, I have already established a good relationship, and I will definitely not disturb our treasure hunt." ”
That country itself has a good relationship with China, plus it is an agricultural country, and its domestic economy is underdeveloped and relatively poor. This kind of country can dredge up relations as long as it pays a little money.
As long as it doesn't drive a warship over and threaten its national security, everything will be easy.
Wei Hang was stunned, are you ready to have your feelings?
"When do you think it's going to go?" asked Chen Jianliang.
"What do the others think?" Wei Hang asked rhetorically.
In this fleet, there is nothing wrong with the big boss being Weihang, but there are also many small bosses, such as Yun Rulong, Pei Yuansheng, Qian Wenji, etc., all have investments. Otherwise, his fleet could not have expanded to such an extent in less than two years.
At present, there are only three large fishing boats, one of which has not yet been delivered, and it was Qian Wen who went to talk about it.
There are almost 10 medium-sized fishing boats, and once they go to sea, they are mighty. Weihang's distant-water fishing fleet can rank among the top five in China.
"What can they say? Rest enough, it's time to go out and make money. Chen Jianliang said.
Last time, all the shareholders made a lot of money, and after eating the sweetness, there is no one who does not look forward to the salvage of the seabed.
Moreover, because of the excitement of their successful salvage of the Awa Maru, domestic and foreign salvage teams are ready to move, especially foreign submarine treasure hunting teams, which have begun to search for treasures all over the world.
They themselves have a wealth of experience in treasure hunting under the sea, and they have a lot of advanced equipment. It was precisely like that that Chen Jianliang was in such a hurry to go out to hunt for treasures, for fear that someone would be the first to get there.
"Then let people prepare! ”
