Chapter 517 [This is the Real Pirate Treasure]
A large box of gold coins was exactly 20,000 gold coins, no more than 20,000 gold coins, and then put them back into the wooden box in their original form. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info locked with the lock that was brought over, because the weight of the wooden box was too large, even if four strong men lifted it together, the handles on both sides of the wooden box could not withstand the weight of the box, and it was damaged.
In the end, there was no choice but to use a simple tripod and a small cart to work together to transport the wooden boxes out of the cave one by one. Fortunately, the terrain of the cave is gentle, and it is easier to transport any ditches and ditches, and a box should come out every five minutes on average.
Then the loft rope was tied to the box, and then transported to the bottom of the mountain little by little to hand over to the people left behind at the bottom of the mountain, so that it was transported like ants moving for a whole day, and the number of wooden boxes was reduced by 1/3.
It is also worth noting that Yang Yong organized a helicopter that night to hang these wooden boxes full of gold and silver treasures upside down on the helicopter. Then it was shipped directly to the Anna, Puerto Rico is the territory of the United States after all, and if anyone tries to fight the idea of this treasure, even if it fails, it will be a trouble. Yang Yong was most afraid of trouble, so all these wooden boxes were not opened, and after seeing what was inside, he directly transported them to the Anna by helicopter and stored them in the vault.
Thanks to the lighting, they were able to continue working on cool nights, working for 36 hours to transport all the wooden boxes to the Anna for storage. After all the work was completed, Yang Yong took the people on the helicopter, went directly back to the resort, and then rested for a day, and all the personnel boarded the Anna and went directly to the bow of the ship to the north to prepare for the return voyage.
After leaving the waters of Puerto Rico, Yang Yong breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got rid of all the dangers and unknown troubles. Only then did he have the energy to take people to the warehouse of the Anna, and began to open the boxes and clean them up bit by bit, and then compare them with the numbers on the treasure map.
Twenty chests of gold coins were exactly 400,000, and the gold coins were the same as those on the treasure map, including Spanish gold coins. These include Portuguese gold coins, Dutch gold coins, and even a small number of British-made gold coins.
These coins are basically 90% new, and after a little cleaning, they make a very good collection. It's just that there are too many of them, and if these 400,000 gold coins are put on the market, the original gold coins can be sold for 500 dollars. 400,000 gold coins have appeared, and a gold coin can be sold for eighty dollars, which is already thankful, after all, it is not worth much if it is scarce and expensive.
What is puzzling is that the owner of these treasures is not a Virgo? There are some cleanliness fetishes. Otherwise, why did he spend so much effort to exchange all the gold coins for new money and bury them, no matter what special habits the other party has, it is none of Yang Yong's business. Yang Yong's mind is now full of money, and then he took the treasure map and compared it with the box, and the numbers on the treasure map were very accurate.
The number of this batch of gold treasures is relatively large, if it is really counted, it is the second largest number of treasures unearthed by Yang Yong. With the scale is the Indian gold treasure, this time found to occupy the second place, you can imagine how many things.
How much is it worth, the goatskin treasure map is not as simple as 400,000 gold coins. Now I'm going to talk to you about the specific numbers on the treasure map, and what are the buried treasures.
The first part consisted of 400,000 ninety percent new gold coins, loaded in more than twenty large wooden boxes. All of them are ninety percent new gold coins, and the second part is almost a seafaring tool minted from gold Xin when the treasure was buried more than three hundred years ago. All of them were made of pure gold, including compasses, compass goniometers, telescopes, various rulers and tools, adding up to more than 200 pieces.
The third part is the pirate living facilities, what is the pirate living facilities! Including living utensils. The largest part of this is the cutlery, then the weapons, and the pirate entertainment includes all kinds of gambling paraphernalia. The fourth part is the things that the pirates have looted, most of which are gold and silver treasures, and the number of jewelry is the first, and then there are other things.
The fifth, and most crucial, part is a collection of skilled craftsmen of the time, which melted down more than ten tons of gold. A golden battleship made from a 100:1 scale real model of the golden battleship is over ten meters long.
There are all kinds of facilities on it, and even the pirate ship has guns and running positions on both sides plus cannonballs. Even the sails on the ship were made of thin gold bars, beaten into gold metal bars and then woven, and even a pirate skull flag fluttered on them.
The golden battleship can move in every part, almost exactly like the real warship. It's just a miniature version, and this golden pirate ship is the biggest priceless treasure that is really the essence of pirate culture.
Just with this golden pirate ship? The value will be more than billions, and the billions are not the price of gold. It's the price of the pirate group itself, the price of the history it carries, and the value of a pirate culture that can't be compared to the gold.
The sixth part, which is also made of pure gold, is very special compared to the previous parts because these are human models cast in gold. Eighty centimeters tall and with legs, feet, and eyes, the number of these gold figures reached 120, and the population was the size of a standard wooden battleship's sailors.
These military puppets have different appearances, some are tall, some are short, some are fat and some are thin, and the expressions on their faces are different. The most special thing is that the clothes they wear and the weapons they wear are all characteristic of this, and most of them have a fierce face. There are even pirates with one eye missing an arm that are particularly vivid.
That's the whole picture of the pirate treasure, all the gold added up to more than 50 tons, but the historical and cultural value of these things is immeasurable. If you really calculate the total value of these pirate gold treasures exceeding tens of billions, Yang Yong will not sell these things no matter how much money is given.
All of these gold treasures, except for the gold and silver jewellery that were looted and brought back, were all pirate-related. Including some living facilities, combat weapons, pirate model dolls, and golden battleships are all historical treasures related to pirates.
If these golden treasures related to pirate culture are sorted out and developed to form a gold museum about pirate culture. What a gimmick this is, and it can completely compete with the gold museum in New York, which exhibits something about Indian culture, Indian culture. If you're opening a gold museum in Los Angeles or San Francisco, and the theme is mainly pirate culture, it's exciting to think about.
If this idea is actually carried out, then the Yang family owns two gold museums. The annual income is more than 500 million US dollars, this is a chicken that can lay golden eggs, and there will always be a golden chicken with income, as long as there is this golden chicken in the Yang family, there will be no shortage of money to spend.
