"Zheng He's fleet back then, if we could learn from the practices of Europe and other countries, our country would not have been so weak in the middle and late Ming Dynasty,"

As the ferry slowly approached the destination, Zhuang Rui, who was standing at the bow of the boat, felt a little emotional, the sea route he was taking now was the route taken by Zheng He when he went to the West. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Zheng He went to the Western Ocean for the second time, he went out of Liujiagang, crossed the Strait of Malacca, entered the Indian Ocean, and visited more than 30 countries in total.

Zheng He's fleet to the West was a fleet of more than 240 seagoing ships and 27,400 crew members, which was completely organized according to maritime navigation and military organization, and could be called a powerful maritime mobile formation in the world at that time.

Dr. Joseph Needham of England, a well-known international scholar, came to the conclusion that "the Ming navy was probably superior to any Asian nation in history, and even any European state of its time, so much so that all European nations combined, could be said to be incomparable to the Ming navy." ”

However, it is a pity that China has always admired the so-called ceremonial state, and it has such a powerful force, but it is deliberately friendly with other countries, and if it follows the example of Britain and Portugal, perhaps China will also have many colonies in the world.

"Boss, there is still a two-hour voyage from the coordinate location you gave, whether to throw the cat at the coordinate point, please instruct ......"

Just when Zhuang Rui was feeling nostalgic for his ancestors, the walkie-talkie in his hand rang, and it was the bearded captain asking Zhuang Rui for instructions.

As a captain who had only been hired on a one-year contract, Clyde put himself in the right place, and he was blind to everything but sailing-related matters.

These days, Zhuang Rui's men have been carrying out some kind of transformation work in the bilge, but Clyde has never asked, and has also severely punished one of his first mates, because the first mate was drunk at the time and insisted on seeing what the bilge was doing.

"Clyde, you're the captain, you know, you're the boss on this ship, is it necessary to report everything to the young man?"

In the cockpit of the bow of the ship, a first mate with three bars on his shoulder, with a look of disgruntle, was agitating Clyde with words.

"Jack, that's our boss, he can fire you and me at any time, don't talk about going into the casino when the time comes, I'm afraid you won't even be able to stay in Macau,"

Clyde glanced at his subordinates dissatisfied, "If it weren't for the fact that he had been with Jack for more than ten years and had always served as his deputy, Clyde would have kicked this drunkard and gambler out of this ship."

"Oh, a lot, Captain, I think you're right, but what the hell are they doing underneath? It's not drug trafficking, is it? God, if that's the case, then we're ......."

Jack's eyes rolled and he turned the conversation back to the fact that the bottom of the cabin was being renovated, he had pretended to have drunk too much once a few days ago, but he was picked up by two powerful security guards, and he didn't see anything.

"Drug trafficking" joke, do you know what our boss's net worth is? at least billions, do you know Klaus's golden cat treasure? That is what our boss gets"......

Clyde sneered at Jack's words: "A boss with a net worth of billions goes to drug trafficking, unless Zhuang Rui is relying on a drug trafficking family, or his brain is broken, he will do this kind of thing now."

"Oh God, Golden Cat?!"

Jack really didn't know about this, but the shock on his face after hearing it was not pretended, watching the ship continue to approach the coordinates on the electronic instruments" Jack suddenly covered his stomach with one hand and said: "Hell" Captain, I'm going to go to the bathroom.........

"Go ahead" I haven't seen you have so many things before, if you don't feel well, go back to your room to rest, just have me here........." Clyde didn't doubt him, and waved his hand, he has always been very tolerant of old fellows, if he was a new rookie today, Clyde would definitely not be so good at talking.

"Damn, that kid is so rich, 500,000 dollars is too little, at least 30 million will be knocked out of him, and then I will be able to leave this hellish place........."

After leaving the cockpit, Jack's wine-colored eyes were dripping, and he muttered in a voice that he could only hear: "Macau is really a good place, of course, Las Vegas is not bad, the golden girl is more flavorful than the Oriental woman, but the young woman is really *** beautiful," only a filthy thought flashed in his head, Jack walked all the way back to his room, and after entering the room, he immediately closed the door firmly and took out a satellite phone from the safe at the bedside.

Unlike many other crew members who have settled down in Macau and had children, Jack has been single for more than ten years, and when he is not on a voyage, he is either gambling and drinking, or fooling around with some prostitutes, and his salary has always been lost at the beginning of the month.

Fortunately, the accommodation and meals of the crew on the ferry were free, so Jack could act as a big sum once a month, and then go back to the ship to eat and drink, and life was not bad, but it was definitely not good.

But a week ago, Jack's day-to-day life, year after year, was disrupted by a gamble.

In that gambling game, Jack inexplicably lost more than 30,000 US dollars, and he didn't know why he asked the loan shark to borrow 50,000 again, and lost all of them, which made Jack almost collapse after he came to his senses.

After staying in Macau for more than ten years, Jack knows very well the horror of these loan sharks, only with his own salary, he can only repay the 50,000 US dollars in half a year, but after half a year, I am afraid that 50,000 will have become 150,000 yuan long ago, if he can't pay it off, he will definitely lack a part in his body.

Just as Jack was touching his little brother and feeling cold, an Oriental who had just bet with him suddenly appeared in front of Jack.

Jack swears that at first, he was sure that this man was the devil, but after the Oriental man came up with a full 100,000 dollars, he immediately upgraded to God in Jack's eyes.

A deposit of 100,000 US dollars, after completing the things that the man explained, there will be 400,000 US dollars to take, and Jack has long forgotten about his role as the first mate, and told the Oriental about the changes that occurred on the ferry, the original book.

It was the previous time that he deliberately entered the bilge by being drunk, which was also explained by the oriental, but Jack failed to go down, for fear of being blamed, Jack simply said that everything was normal on the ship, except for the newly built drilling platform and floating crane, there were no other changes.

"Hey" I'm Jack, oh generous boss, I'm going to report you good news.........

After answering the phone, Jack couldn't wait to tell the other party about his latest appearance, he had been at sea for a decade or two, and he had already guessed the identity of the other party.

What if it's a pirate? Jack doesn't care so much, as long as he gives him money, it doesn't matter if he wants him to be a pirate, he believes that a promising and skilled first mate like himself will not do anything to unload and kill donkeys.

"Boss, Klaus's golden anchor, that one thing is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, not to mention that you can ......"

Jack stopped talking at this point, he was sure that the other party would understand his words.

"Well, Jack, you're going to get an unexpected fortune" Now all you need to do is monitor every move on board, and you have to ask "How many days will this ship stay at that coordinate point?"

The voice on the phone was a little low, probably because of the wind and waves at sea, and there was a rustle at one point during the call, but Jack and the other party didn't care, which was a normal thing.

Thank you owner, I will make you satisfied.........

After Jack hung up the phone, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart, why did he say this so much like a bitch at the door of a Macau casino, what he said in bed?

After a long day at sea, the ship "finally came to the coordinates mentioned by Zhuang Rui, which is located at the entrance to the South China Sea and the Strait of Malacca" and is right on the high seas, and if it goes a little further, it will enter the waters of Singapore.

The Strait of Malacca is located between the Malay Peninsula and the island of Sumatra in Southeast Asia, connecting the South China Sea and the Andaman Sea, and connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean.

The Strait of Malacca is now jointly managed by Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, the strait is located in the equatorial windless zone, there are many calm days throughout the year, the bottom of the strait is flat, mostly muddy and sandy, and the water flow is gentle.

However, at the entrance to this section of the Strait of Malacca, there are many reefs, deep water and large waves, the deepest depth can reach more than 3,000 meters, and since entering the Age of Discovery, I don't know how many ships have fallen in the sand here.

According to relevant records, there are about 2ooo ancient shipwrecks in the South China Sea, and at this entrance, I am afraid that more than half of them will be accounted for.

Although it is located in the open sea, and the items salvaged can belong to you, but the waves here are deep and it is difficult to detect the specific location of the shipwreck, so few adventurers have come to work, and the shipwreck on the bottom of the sea is relatively well preserved.

"Mr. Zhuang, is this the position?"

Zhang Gong walked to Zhuang Rui's side, although he has been debugging equipment at sea for a long time every year, but it is also the first time for him to go to sea on such a luxurious cruise ship.

Moreover, the salvage equipment installed this time is extremely advanced and is the latest development of their company, and if the salvage is successful, it is also a very beneficial publicity for their company.

"Yes, when the cobalt throwing is completed, we must first locate it, and then it will be up to Zhang Gong.........

Zhuang Rui nodded, and watched from the hull of the ship, a huge iron pin was thrown out of the hull, and after a dull sound, it sank to the bottom of the sea.

The location will not be wrong, on the way back from the yacht last time, Zhuang Rui wrote down the coordinates of all the shipwrecks on the high seas along the way, and just now, he also used his aura to explore the situation on the bottom of the sea.

Obviously, there must be more than one shipwreck in this sea area, within a radius of four or five nautical miles, at the gentle riverbed at the bottom of the sea, Zhuang Rui felt at least ten places, all exuding a strong aura.

The aura in his eyes felt the thick and undispersed aura at the bottom of the sea, and Zhuang Rui was also a little excited in his heart.

The items in the shipwreck in the sea, generally in addition to gold and silverware, are the most valuable Hailao porcelain, the so-called Hailao porcelain, refers to a classification of export porcelain in Chinese history.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty in China, porcelain was exported in large quantities, and the Strait of Malacca, where Zhuang Rui is now located, as a maritime hub for Asia, Africa, Europe and other places, has become a place where Chinese merchant ships must pass.

Industry insiders believe that although Hailao porcelain cannot be compared with the porcelain of the Ming and Qing dynasties, it has a more obvious historical background due to the shipwreck, and the cultural and historical value reflected cannot be underestimated.

In the past few years, the price of Hailao antiques has not been very high, but in recent years the price has risen sharply, not long ago someone fought out more than 300 pieces of Ming Dynasty Hailao porcelain, actually auctioned for more than 40 million US dollars.

With Zhuang Rui's induction, the items in the shipwreck in this sea area will definitely be worth this ticket, and several relatively well-preserved ancient ships inside will also be used as an important exhibit in his museum.

"Brother Zhuang, if you have time, come to the monitoring room, we have a very interesting thing on the ship......

Just when Zhuang Rui and Zhang Gong were talking, the walkie-talkie in his hand suddenly rang, and the person who spoke was Shura Li Zhen, this guy was stuffy in the room all day and didn't come out, and Zhuang Rui didn't know what he was doing?

After chatting with Zhang Gong briefly, Zhuang Rui returned to the cabin and entered the elevator, and after coming to the fifth floor, he was able to enter the room where Li Zhen worked with the fingerprint lock.

After Zhuang Rui entered the room, Peng Fei was also inside, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, didn't this kid go fishing on the back deck with his daughter-in-law just now?

"Hehe, Brother Zhuang, we will definitely not be lonely these days......... Seeing Zhuang Rui come in, Peng Fei showed a wicked smile on his face, and there was still some excitement in his expression.

Zhuang Rui thought that Peng Fei was talking about salvaging the shipwreck, and said angrily: "Nonsense, of course you won't be lonely, if you are idle, you can go diving and play, but don't let the sharks eat it...... ，……

"Brother Zhuang, it's not like this, come, listen to this recording.........

Peng Fei waved his hand, pulled Li Zhen aside, asked Zhuang Rui to sit down, and put a conversation out.

"Is this our crew?" Zhuang Rui listened to the recording, with a look of surprise on his face.

"That's right, Brother Zhuang, there's a good show to watch...... ，……

Li Zhen laughed proudly, out of professionalism, he would listen to the signals from inside and outside the ship, but he didn't expect to catch an inner ghost
