Chapter 1293 Ancient Greek Shipwreck

……

Although everyone present made a lot of money in the process of inflating the stock price of Standard Chartered, just making money was not what Rofitte wanted. What he wanted most was to bring down Liu Dong's Hanhua Group, and when he reported that he was on the Poseidon cruise ship, the other party made him embarrassed, and later made him almost lose the hatred of the inheritance of the family patriarch.

"Mr. Bouig, Liu Dong has many companies, and it is not surprising that he is now able to withdraw funds to support shares. But don't worry. Even if he can hold the shares, we have more means to deal with him later! Rofitte said hurriedly.

"I hope what you say is true! Also, I forgot to tell you that the $2.5 billion that Liu Dong bought the shares of Abi National Bank has already gone to the Bouygues Group! ”

Bouygues ...... Doodle......! ”

Listening to the blind sound coming from the mobile phone, the look on Luo Feite's face instantly turned iron-blue, if it weren't for the scruples that there would be more people behind him, he would definitely throw the phone out without hesitation!

After taking a few deep breaths and suppressing the anger in his heart, it took more than ten minutes for Roffett to recover.

Then glancing at the Standard Chartered stock, which was still solid after their stock sell-off, on the electronic display, Rolfit's expression slowly became calm and solemn.

Turning around, he looked at the middle-aged man one meter away on the left, "Mr. Fernandez, I'm afraid it's time for us to launch the third step of the offensive!" ”

"Now? Isn't it too early? Fernandez frowned.

"No, it's not early! As things stand, Liu Dong has raised funds to stabilize the stock price, and now we have to use major adverse news to get depositors, especially those who hold their money and assets in custody at Standard Chartered Bank, to leave. is the most advantageous means to crack down on Standard Chartered Bank. "Rofitte cut the railroad.

"Alright! I immediately went to prepare! After some hesitation, Fernandez turned and left.

Although he already regrets it a little at the moment, Fernández, who is already on the ship, and Santander, who is behind him, have no more options.

Give up or continue.

To abandon would mean that Santander's previous acquisition of Banco Nacional Abi was a complete failure. Not only did you miss out on a bank with great potential, but you also made your enemies stronger. If it weren't for making a fortune in the process of manipulating the Standard Chartered share price. I'm afraid that Santander really responded to the sentence this time, 'The mutton was not eaten, but it caused a commotion'!

Therefore, for the sake of greater profits, in order not to be ridiculed by his peers after the truth is revealed, and in order not to be blamed by the board of directors, Fernandez can only go down with Rofitte.

……

At this moment, Martin Bouyger, who was far away in the suburbs of Paris, hung up the phone and looked at the Standard Chartered Bank on the computer monitor on his desk with only a small fluctuation, and no longer the previous cliff-like decline in stock price, and looked at it for a long time. Pick up the red phone on the desk, "Karen, come to my office!" ”

After a short time, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Come in!"

"Squeak!"

With a slightly hoarse grinding sound, an old butler in a black suit and full of aristocratic style pushed the door and walked in.

"Sir!"

"Karen, you go and sort out the Chinese artifacts in my treasure room in a moment, and then hand me the list!"

"Yes!"

"That's right. Is Liu Dong still in the Mediterranean? ”

"Yes! This Mr. Liu seems to be really obsessed with shipwreck salvage, and has never left his 'Gonggong' yacht! Karen said slowly.

After nodding. Buig suddenly said with great interest: "Then has he salvaged the wreck these days?" ”

"Two have already been salvaged?"

"Two? It seems that our Chinese lads are really lucky! Bouig laughed.

"Yes, sir!"

"Alright, I got it! You go down first! ”

"Yes!"

After waving his hand to let the old butler out, Martin Bouig looked at the stock market on the table, and after a long silence, he said to himself: "Are you really confident, or are you pretending?" ”

……

"Boss. The No. 2 wreck has been salvaged out of the water! ”

Just when Liu Dong was sitting in the study to deal with the company's government affairs during this time, after the phone rang next to him, Charlie Nord's excited voice came from it.

"I'll go over now!"

After putting down the phone, Liu Dong immediately stood up and walked towards the door.

"My dear. Where are you going? Helen, who was about to push the door in, looked at Liu Dong who was in a hurry, and asked at the moment.

"Charlie, they've salvaged the No. 2 shipwreck, I'll go take a look!"

"Shipwreck No. 2? I didn't see you so excited when I salvaged the No. 1 shipwreck a few days ago! Although she thought so, looking at Liu Dong who was in a hurry, Helen hurriedly followed.

In fact, Liu Dong paid much more attention to the No. 2 wreck than the No. 1 wreck that had been salvaged 250 nautical miles south of Sardinia.

Mainly because the No. 2 wreck is much older and the artwork preserved on it is much more than the former.

In fact, the No. 1 wreck is just a 17th-century Venetian merchant ship, and the ship type is relatively well preserved, but there are not many valuable works of art.

Because Liu Dong's living life is on the Gonggong yacht, it takes a little effort to board the ocean-going explorer with a displacement of more than 50,000 tons.

However, with the presence of helicopters on the yacht, the process was very short-lived.

But when the two of them came down from the tarmac, they saw at a glance that it had surfaced at this moment, with a length of nearly 25 meters, a width of 5 meters, and three masts, a displacement of about 250 tons, and a strong Greek antique era in the shape of the ship.

The Archaic period was a period of fundamental transformation in Greek society. During this period, Oriental culture had an influence on Greek art through trade exchanges, and Greek art in turn formed its own style by absorbing the strengths of Eastern culture and gradually getting rid of the influence of Oriental culture.

Moreover, during this period, the freedmen as a class came to the stage of history, Greece gave rise to different political republics, hundreds of independent city-states interacted frequently, the annual Olympic Games, the sacrificial events of the temples of Delos and Apollo on the island of Delphi, the birth of Homer's epic poems,...... Finally, the system of gods and goddesses of Mount Olympia with Zeus as the main brain was formed, and it made full preparations for the formation of Greek art with Greek mythology as the main theme, and then made full preparations for the arrival of the golden age of Greek art, the prosperous period.

Just when Liu Dong was thinking of the splendor of the civilization of the Greek ancient era, the eight huge metal claw hooks on the ocean-going explorer had firmly grasped the wreck that had surfaced.

Soon, under the experienced command of Charlie Nord, the shipwreck numbered 2 was steadily fished out of the water with a completely computer-operated salvage system.

The weight of 250 tons is not enough to make the slightest impact on this salvage vessel, which was originally used to salvage large deep-sea submarines.

Rich enough to allow the machinery to easily salvage the ship from the surface and place it in a large cabin specially prepared on deck, nicknamed 'The Pool'.

"Boss! Boss......! ”

After noticing Liu Dong's arrival, the surrounding onlookers who were watching the shipwreck with great interest hurriedly moved out of the way.

However, not everyone has maintained a good attention to Liu Dong's arrival. Individuals such as Klein and Kieran Cahill, who were devoted to academic and scientific exploration, were far more curious and enthusiastic about the new shipwreck in front of them than they were about Liu Dong and Helen.

"It's incredible! In the warm Mediterranean, there are such well-preserved shipwrecks from the Greek antiquity. Klein said with excitement on his face.

"That's right, for more than 2,500 years, it doesn't seem to have been affected by ship maggots. And 2,500 years have brought about an incredible change in its material! ”

As he spoke, Kiran Cahill tapped the exposed side of the ship with a small metal hammer the size of his little finger.

However, what everyone heard was not the expected muffled sound, but a crisp sound like a metal collision.

While the two were still looking at and studying the shape of the wreck and the changes in the wood, Chris North, another art restoration expert with an impatient temperament, couldn't wait to take an escalator handed over by the staff next to him, leaned on the side of the ship, and climbed onto the deck with his hands and feet.

Looking at his exuberant appearance, it seemed that the plankton that had accumulated on the deck, the hard lumps of seaweed and dust that had accumulated on the deck, and all kinds of unknown gray-gray-green debris, which seemed disgusting to outsiders, especially girls, seemed to him to be non-existent.

With him taking the lead, Klein and Kieran Cahill couldn't hold back their curiosity and hurriedly climbed up the escalator.

"Are you going up?" Liu Dong turned his head and said.

"No!"

Despite the curiosity in the heart. But looking at the dirty side and deck, and then at the high heels on her feet, Helen, with a hint of disgust on her face, shook her head.

"Then wait here now, I'll go up and take a look and come down."

"Well, hurry up then!"

"Got it!"

After nodding, Liu Dong walked onto the deck with Charlie Nord, who was also very curious and qualified to go up. As for more people, although they have the heart to go up, they can only wait outside without the order of the boss.

After all, this is a shipwreck from the 6th century BC, and no one knows how much support it has on its deck. Before scientific research, it is better to have fewer people who do not matter.
