As if smelling death, the sailor swallowed timidly, looked at Zheng Fei and hesitated for a long time before reaching out tremblingly and probing in front of Hans's nostrils.

"Ahh

Next, he and Zheng Fei looked at each other for a few seconds, and the two of them smiled in unison.

"You're alive. ”

"I'm alive. ”

People were surprised to find that Hans was not only alive but also alive and well, and his red face did not look like a man who had been hungry for two days.

"Get him something to eat. Zheng Fei said to the sailor.

Who would have thought that Hans would wave his hand and say, "No, I just ate it." ”

As he spoke, he took out a bag from under the stone chair and shook it open, and inside was a large piece of air-dried beef, and said with a smug smile: "There is nothing missing here." ”

Immediately after, he smiled and took out half a bottle of wine, and when he twisted the lid, the aroma of wine overflowed.

Smelling the rich aroma of wine, Zheng Fei's eyes flashed a hint of surprise, walked over and picked up the wine bottle to look at it, and sniffed the tip of his nose at the mouth of the bottle.

I have never seen such a good wine, at least a fine wine with a history of more than 100 years, and only a very few people who know wine understand how wonderful a good bottle of wine can become when it is treasured in the cave of the snow-capped mountains for hundreds of years, and if it is put into the 21st century, it will definitely fetch the highest price in the world.

Such a good wine, of course, is meant to be swallowed alone.

Hans watched as he poured half a bottle of wine into the jug, stuck out his tongue, but did not feel distressed at all, and smiled: "Slow down the captain, there are two more crates." ”

Zheng Fei's movements paused for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "Where is it?"

Hans made a mysterious expression, whistled, and said, "Whatever you see next, don't get too excited." ”

With that, he pressed the mechanism hidden at the bottom of the stone chair, and like a millstone in a Lisbon prison, a hole appeared in the ground.

Zheng Fei waved his hand, signaled the sailors to keep a sentry on it, and drilled down with him.

The cave is very bright, and the stones on the walls emit fluorescence, making it look like a mysterious passage, the secret passage of a certain king.

At the end, you will see a colorful gem, two cases of wine, a few dried beef, and a box.

Hans scratched his head and said, "I want to open the box to see what the secret is, but I can't."

Halfway through his words, he saw Zheng Fei pull out his dagger and stab it into the box and cut it.

Inside was a yellowed piece of parchment with oddly shaped symbols, presumably in some kind of font.

Zheng Fei is not an archaeologist, so naturally he doesn't know what the meaning of this word is, and after guessing for a while, he carefully folds the paper and puts it into Hans's arms, because it smells musty.

Then, taking a deep breath, he silently crouched down and picked up a few gems to weigh in his palm.

Although he is not a gemstone, he has a lot of contact with people in high society, and the gems they wear are roughly this color.

The point is, it's full of gems! small ones like ants, big ones and pebbles, thousands of them, and they're worth a fortune.

If all these gems were to be sold in Europe, it would be no exaggeration to say that they would definitely buy half of Lisbon!

This is also the reason why Zheng Fei let all the sailors stay on it.

The current fleet is not as good as before, containing more than 2,000 people, as the saying goes, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, maybe there will be a few people who are interested in making money.

Such a large fortune, if someone has the heart to put something in the meal, or take advantage of the dark night and high wind to kill people and rob ships

These have to be guarded against.

After being silent for a while, Zheng Fei frowned and said in a low voice, "Hans, do you want to get rich?"

Hans nodded blankly and said, "Of course, isn't it just to make a fortune when you sail?" ”

"Do you want these gems?"

Hans's eyes flashed with fleeting greed, and he pursed his lips and said, "I don't want to be fake, but I know you won't give it, just reward me with a bonus, how about two hundred silver coins?"

Zheng Fei shook his head, looked at him seriously, and said, "No, I can give you one-tenth, and after selling it, it will be enough for you to enjoy yourself for a lifetime, but"

"But what?" Hans knew there would be no pie in the sky.

"But you can't let anyone know about these gems, you know?"

Smile knowingly.

"Yes, you cunning old fox. ”

"Hehe, no way, the form is forced, there are too many people on board, you can never figure out what other people are thinking. ”

After that, Zheng Fei patted him on the shoulder, sat down, took a sip of the mellow taste of century-old wine, glanced at the air-dried beef next to him and joked, "Shouldn't this be what you eat?"

"That's right. ”

Zheng Fei was stunned, and choked back when he wanted to say something, afraid that this guy would vomit.

This meat has been here for at least a hundred years, and although there is no bacteria breeding and the meat is not rotting in the natural cold storage, it really takes courage to eat it.

It seems that Hans didn't know that it was hundreds of years old and that it was still delicious.

Tsk, I actually took another bite.

Zheng Fei turned his attention back to the gem, he couldn't take it with him today, so he had to find another way to find a group of trusted companions and secretly transfer them to the ship to hide.

Grab two cases of wine and get out of the hole.

The sailors waited boredly, drank and chatted, and chewed two more salt-baked peas, and when they saw them come out, they immediately came over and asked.

"Captain, what's down there?"

"Yes, yes, yes, is there a treasure trove?"

"Haha, get rich!"

Zheng Fei looked disappointed at this group of excited sailors, sighed and said, "There are only these two boxes of wine." ”

The fiery hearts of the sailors were splashed with water, and they looked at each other, and some of them wanted to get in and have a look, but Hans grabbed them.

"Hurry away, in five minutes the cave will be cold, and then it will be like an ice cellar. ”

"Okay, let's go, go back and give you a bonus, ten silver coins per person!" Zheng Fei urged, and took the lead in walking out.

The sailors, whose dreams of fortune had been shattered, hung their heads in frustration and followed in formation.

Two days later, in the afternoon, the mountain stream.

The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the girls are squatting in the lower reaches of the stream to wash their clothes, talking and laughing, and their smiling faces are very exciting.

As for the men, they sat in the shade of the trees on both sides and crossed their legs, secretly glancing at other people's daughters-in-law or daughters, holding homemade cigarettes between their fingertips, and the tobacco was originally pit from the owner of the Lisbon dockyard, Zheng Fei himself was not interested, and gave it all to the sailors for welfare.

Santiago just woke up in the morning, and when he woke up, he ate a whole pot of beef noodles, drank all the soup, and licked it.

Zheng Fei sat on the cliff, where he could take in the entire mountain stream, looking at the men and women in various postures below, and slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

"Captain, do you want to eat sugar?" a familiar voice came from behind him.
