"Zhuang Rui, we have to abide by the law, I don't want to go back to my old profession as a lawyer......"

Seeing Zhuang Rui's ruthless appearance, Huang Fuyun couldn't help shouting behind him, with Zhuang Rui's relationship in China, if he wants to make money from some crooked ways, it is really not difficult. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Come on, just look at the construction site, I'll be back in a month at most......"

Zhuang Rui didn't look back, but waved his hand back, which made him feel depressed in his heart, he couldn't spend money lavishly in the future, and everything had to leave a way back.

The money he won from betting on horses in Macau was all invested in the defensive weapons of "Xuanrui Island", if not, even if half of it was left, it would be enough to build the Golden City this time.

Of course, in this world, there is not only gambling and gambling stones to make money, in Zhuang Rui's eyes, in the vast sea, there are also endless treasures for him to claim.

Moreover, these treasures in the sea are usually gold and silver looted from all over the world by several major powers during the foreign colonial period, and the artistic value is not very high, so Zhuang Rui has no psychological pressure to sell these things.

…… The "Xuanrui", which had not stayed in Tianjin Port for a long time, was restarted, but compared with the sad face of Captain Clyde when he returned from Africa, he was now in good spirits, and even the beard on his chin was carefully groomed with hairspray.

After the "Xuanrui" sailed out of the open sea, Clyde came to the deck and said to Zhuang Rui, who was sitting there basking in the sun, with a sneer: "Boss, you are really true to your word, haha, what period of shipwreck are we going to salvage this time?"

Yesterday, after receiving a call from Zhuang Rui, Clyde excitedly galloped on the little lover's body all night, not at all like a middle-aged and elderly person in his fifties, you know, he still needs to use the blue pill to have fun before, it is obvious that he loves the ocean more than the woman in his arms.

"Captain Clyde, whose treasure do you want us to find?"

Zhuang Rui picked up the beer at hand and took a sip and laughed, the weather at sea in late autumn is just right, neither cold nor hot, blowing the warm sea breeze, enjoying the beautiful scenery on the sea, if it is not too high on the side of the boat, then fishing, then it is called comfortable.

However, Zhuang Rui went to sea with the golden eagle this time, he and Peng Fei sat on the deck drinking beer, watching the golden eagle catch a big fish from the sea from time to time, it was also a very good feeling.

"Oh, boss, you've got a problem for me......"

Clyde shouted exaggeratedly, blinking his eyes, and said, "Are we going to Lohode Island, where pirate treasures have been passed down for centuries......

"Haha, Captain Clyde, the treasure there can't be left by your ancestors, is it?, otherwise why are you so interested?"

Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard this, he knew that the Lohoard Island that Clyde was talking about was a legend more famous than the treasure of Klaus that he had discovered.

Located in Australia, the island is not a beautiful place for birds, but "the island is not beautiful, but the treasure is famous", and it is said that the island is full of treasures and the surrounding seabed is paved with dazzling gems.

In the 50s and 70s of the 16th century, the Spaniards followed Columbus's voyage to the Americas, plundered countless gold, silver and jewels from the Indians, and then returned home with a full cabin.

However, their actions were noticed by the pirates, who frantically attacked every passing merchant ship, slaughtered the crew, and robbed a large amount of treasure, such that the pirates could not take it all, so they buried the rest on the island of Lohaud and drew a treasure map, and the pirates swore a blood oath to keep it a secret in order to enjoy the ill-gotten wealth forever.

How do you know that pirates are pirates after all, how can there be credibility at all, some conspirators tried to swallow the treasure alone, for a time the flesh and blood flew around, a fire and left a corpse, the victor carried the treasure map to mix the world, living a life of luxury, and the legend of the Golden Island also spread far and wide, popular all over the world.

In the 70s of the 17th century, a man named William Fipos stumbled upon a map of the island of Lohend, showing the sunken place of a Spanish merchant ship, and he was pleasantly surprised and sensed that an opportunity to make a fortune had arrived. With this unknown treasure map, William Fipos landed on a desert island and surveyed everywhere, but found nothing.

One day, while wandering on the beach, William Fipos accidentally got his foot into the sand and touched a foreign object, which was discovered to be a large coral of great beauty, and in the coral there was a delicate wooden box full of gold, silver and rare treasures.

Fipos was so ecstatic that he spent three months on the island, frantically searching, filling his schooner with 30 tons of gold, silver and jewelry, and his dream of making a fortune came true.

For a time, many true and false "treasure maps" came into being, flooded Europe, sold at high prices, and many fortune maniacs bought them with a lot of money, sparing no expense, and as a result, many people were either buried at the bottom of the sea, or died on a desert island, or searched hard, and the legacy of the pirates became a mystery full of temptations.

However, Zhuang Rui is not very interested in these legends that have been passed down for centuries, unless it is an uninhabited island, the treasure hidden on the island has long been hollowed out after so many years, where is his turn to hunt for treasure?

"Boss, I want to correct your statement, my ancestors were thieves, characters like Robinson, they killed the rich and helped the poor, where can there be so many treasures?"

Finally able to sail the ship to the sea to hunt for treasure, Captain Clyde was in a good mood, and he didn't care how disrespectful Zhuang Rui was in his ancestors' words, and he also laughed and joked about his ancestors.

"Clyde, let's go to the island to hunt for treasure, don't you ask Yu Blind?, tell you, not long ago, I found a treasure map, about the shipwreck of the ocean......"

Zhuang Rui had already locked the destination of this salvage, but he still deliberately made a mysterious appearance and took out a yellowed parchment from his pocket.

"Nautical charts?"

The bearded captain snatched the parchment in Zhuang Rui's hand, and after a little clue in his hand, he saw the doorway, which was supposed to be a navigation chart used in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

As the name suggests, nautical charts are nautical charts used for the safe navigation and nautical positioning of ships.

The world's earliest marine maps are the Portland-type charts of the 14th and 17th centuries, which were used for navigation, and were filled with shè-shaped azimuth lines, with the help of which the navigator could determine the direction of the ship on the ocean at any time.

These charts also detail coastlines, bays, islands, capes, shoals, coastal mountains, and features that contribute to navigation.

And the one Clyde is holding at this moment is a Portland-type chart, but this should be only half a picture, and the picture on it has become a little blurry due to the age.

Seeing Clyde's appearance as if he had won a treasure, Zhuang Rui secretly laughed and said, "That's right, this is a nautical chart, Captain Clyde, can you tell from the map which sea area this is?"

"This is supposed to be a nautical chart of the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century, and from the map, the sea area drawn should be the Atlantic Ocean, but unfortunately there is only half one, and I have to compare it with the nautical chart on the ship to find out...... Boss, the location of the center point of this picture has been artificially marked, and I believe that it must be the location of the shipwreck or treasure......"

Clyde's expression was a little excited, you know, when there are special marks on the nautical charts, they usually have an extraordinary meaning, either the location of the shipwreck or the pirate's lair.

After Clyde finished speaking, he took a deep breath, looked at Zhuang Rui with a pleading expression, and then said: "Boss, don't worry, in just half an hour, I will definitely be able to find out the exact coordinates of this map......"

For thousands of years, the treasures of the sea have attracted countless treasure hunters and explorers, and even in the last century, these so-called treasure maps have caused a rush to scramble, especially in Clyde's eyes.

"Ahem......"

Zhuang Rui coughed twice with a strange face, and said, "Captain Clyde, no problem, you can take this picture, but you must keep it properly, be careful not to damage it......"

"Definitely, it won't be damaged, boss, don't worry......"

After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Clyde jumped up excitedly like a young man, carefully folded the sheepskin in his hand, and then put it in his personal pocket, and when he turned to go out, his right hand was always next to the pocket, for fear of being robbed.

"Brother Zhuang, you ...... What kind of nautical chart did you really have? When did you get it? Why haven't I heard of you?"

After Clyde left, Peng Fei looked at Zhuang Rui suspiciously, in the past few years, he and Zhuang Rui have been together even longer than Qin Xuanbing and Zhuang Rui have been together, but he has never seen Zhuang Rui show off this treasure map to him?

Zhuang Rui glanced at Peng Fei unhappily and said, "Nonsense, of course it's true, you kid has seen Brother Zhuang fool people with fake things? This thing came out of David's lair, you didn't pay attention to it at the time......

"That's hard to say, Brother Zhuang, you didn't sleep all night yesterday......" Peng Fei muttered.

", don't you want me to make out with your sister-in-law? Damn, you kid kept listening to the wall yesterday?"

Zhuang Rui was furious when he heard this, stood up and kicked at Peng Fei, in fact, he was purely a thief, Peng Fei was right, Zhuang Rui tinkered all night yesterday, just to make this chart that can be fake.
