"What picture?" Xue Fei was frightened, and he didn't react to what Quan Zhenxi was talking about for a while.

"It's the picture you looked at when you went to bed a while ago, the one with the numbers on it." Quan Zhenxi gestured as he spoke, and Xue Fei suddenly remembered.

"You've really been to that place?" Xue Fei stood up.

"I've been. Do you remember, I said that I looked like I had seen it somewhere, but I actually saw it on a map. Quan Zhenxi told Xue Fei about the map.

Jeon Jin-hee is a person who has difficulty in choosing, and he doesn't have any quasi-attention, which can be seen from the fact that he is going to travel this time. But this is by no means the first time, she has also made this mistake when she travels to Spain before.

Spain has beautiful natural scenery, pleasant scenery, and many beaches, and when Jeon Jin-hee went to Spain before, he had a hard time choosing which beach to go to. There were three options, which were the northern beaches of Barcelona, the Galician beaches, and the Vigo Bay. Although Jeon Jin-hee finally chose Galician Beach, because she had been entangled for a long time, she had read the map where the three beaches were located for a long time, so she had a deep impression of the general shape of the map, so much so that she has not forgotten it to this day.

And this picture that Xue Fei has never understood is the picture of Vigo Bay in Quan Zhenxi's memory.

"Are you sure it's Vigo Bay in Spain?" Xue Fei needed an unmistakable answer.

"I'm sure, I don't believe I can look it up for you on a computer." Jeon Jin-hee said and looked it up on the computer.

I checked it for a long time, but unfortunately I didn't find it. Jeon Jin-hee asked people to go out to buy relevant maps, but there were no ones for sale in South Korea, so he had no choice but to contact an acquaintance in Spain and ask him to help buy a copy and send it over through the Internet.

When he received the map, Xue Fei saw that it was really Vigo Bay, but what he sent was a detailed map, and what Gong Duo had sent down was a simple map.

It is not surprising that the British royal family has a map of Spain hidden among its treasures, because in the past, European royal families were intermarried, and it can be said that everyone was a relative. What made Xue Fei curious was, what does this map of Vigo Bay want to express? He still doesn't understand the numbers above.

Xue Fei used a Korean search website to search Vigo Bay, but he didn't find much valuable. When searching on our country's search website, Xue Fei had a surprise to him.

In 1702, Spain's finances were in dire straits, and a large fleet of 19 galleons was ordered to rush back to Spain carrying gold, silver, and jewels looted from the United States, passing through a very dangerous stretch of water.

One day in June, just as the "Golden Flotilla" was sailing to the waters of the Azores, a combined Anglo-Dutch fleet suddenly blocked its way. The flotilla, consisting of 150 warships, forced the "Golden Flotilla" to take refuge in Vigo Bay.

The best and only way to deal with a strong enemy at that time was to unload the treasure from the ship and transport it by land to the capital Madrid. But there was a strange rule at the time that everything brought from South America had to be checked and accepted in the city of Seville, which meant that no land could be taken.

After the Combined Fleet besieged the "Golden Fleet" for a month, seeing that it would not surrender, the commander-in-chief, Admiral Luke, lost patience and ordered an onslaught on Vigo Bay. Under the bombardment of 3,115 heavy guns, the Spanish defenders were routed on all fronts. The coalition forces were attracted by the countless treasures in front of them, so the battle progressed rapidly, and the harbor was soon hidden.

At this time, the commander-in-chief of the "Golden Fleet", Velasco, despaired, and did not want to give up the gold, silver and jewelry, so he ordered the burning of the carrying ships. For a time, Vigo Bay was in flames, except for 3 sailing ships that were captured by the coalition forces, the remaining 16 treasures were all buried at the bottom of the sea.

What exactly are these treasures?

According to the estimates of the captured Spanish Admiral Chacon, about 5,000 wagons.

In 2000, the Spanish government announced that it would permanently relinquish ownership of all the treasures of the "Golden Fleet" and welcome treasure hunters from all over the world to come and salvage them. At that time, as soon as the news came out, it attracted attention all over the world, and many people were eager to explore the treasure. Many critics interpret this as the Spanish government's purpose is to develop tourism in Spain, because in 2000, it was the time of the US financial crisis, and Spain's economy was also in a recession, so it is conceivable that the purpose of announcing this event at this time can be imagined.

Over the centuries, this treasure has attracted countless treasure hunters, and although many have ventured to the bottom of the ocean many times, only a handful of treasures have been recovered.

After reading this article about the "Golden Fleet", Xue Fei suddenly realized that the number of treasures estimated by Chakong was around 5,000 carriages, could it be that the "5,000" marked on the map referred to the number of treasures?

If this is the case, then the other four numbers should be the exact location of the treasure.

It seems that there is really a treasure hidden in the Shengshi Crystal.

Xue Fei felt that he had cracked the mystery in the picture, and he was extremely excited.

In order to further confirm his judgment, Xue Fei searched on the Internet about the finished age of the Shengshi Crystal. The treasure map that can hide the "Golden Fleet" in the Prosperity Crystal means that the person who created the Prosperity Crystal or the previous owner already knew the whereabouts of this treasure, otherwise the map would not have been hidden in the Prosperity Crystal. It's a pity that he didn't find the content he wanted on the Internet, so Xue Fei called Princess Connie and asked her to find out about the relevant things.

Xue Fei thought that Princess Connie would take a few days, but he didn't expect to send him an extremely detailed information by email the next day.

The Shengshi Crystal has always been in the hands of the British royal family, and it has never been left behind before Xue Fei got it, and the inheritance is clear, so it is easy to find out who has owned it. Among the many people that Princess Connie said, the one he remembered the most was Hancam, the maker of the Prosperous Crystal.

Hancam's family has served in the British royal family for generations, and Hanham's father was a full-time jeweller in the British royal family, and Hancam later inherited his father's craft, but he was obviously much better than his father. During his lifetime, he created thousands of pieces of jewelry for the British royal family, most of which were priceless treasures, and the manufacture of prosperous crystals made him famous and famous, and he was known as a genius in jewelry design.

Hankam was not only good at designing jewelry, he was also a navigator and a traveler.

According to the British royal family's "Chronicle", in 1710, eight years after the "golden fleet" sank to the bottom of the sea, Hankham, in order to please Queen Anne, who had been ill for a long time, said that he wanted to go out to find a treasure and make it into jewelry for Queen Anne, so that she could bless the queen with good health and a long life. With Queen Anne's permission, Hanham left England.

Hancam has been gone for nearly three years, and after he returned, he did not go empty-handed, but went back with the original mother stone of the Shengshi Crystal. Queen Anne asks Hancum where he went, and Hancam says he went to South America.

After all the preparations for the production of the Prosperous Crystal were completed, Hanham's construction began in earnest in 1714. However, Queen Anne did not wait for the advent of the Crystal, and died in the early years of its manufacture, which took five years to make. Hancam returned to the West the year after the Prosperous Crystal was made.

After the production of the Shengshi crystal, it has been circulating in the hands of the British royal family, and the royal family regards it as a priceless treasure, and there has never been an exact record of the Shengshi crystal being separated for so many years, at least there is no record in the visible text. Therefore, Xue Fei speculated that the small crystal ball hidden in the Shengshi Crystal should have been put in by Hancam when he made the Shengshi Crystal.

If the speculation is correct, Hanham's nearly three years away from England did not go to South America, as he told Queen Anne, he should have gone to Spain to explore treasures, and really found the treasure of 5,000 carriages that sank into the depths of the sea. As for why he didn't fish out the treasure, maybe it was limited to the fact that all the conditions at that time could not be met, or maybe he wanted to seal this secret in the Shengshi Crystal to see which destined person could find it one day.

Although the current information shows that the map marks the treasure that sank into Vigo Bay, only the real sight of the treasure can confirm the authenticity of the map, otherwise it will always remain at the level of speculation.

In short, Xue Fei was already tempted by this matter, whether it was true or not, he wanted to go to Vigo Bay to explore it before returning to China.

Without further ado, Xue Fei called Ma Jiayao, who was in the United States, and told her the matter concisely, and Ma Jiayao immediately contacted the American Odyssey Marine Exploration Company, which has the title of the world's giant in the shipwreck salvage industry, and finally signed a cooperation agreement at a price of 1 million US dollars after discussion.

Xue Fei and Jeon Jin-hee, who were in South Korea, made Spain a place for leisure and set off for Spain.

Although the Spanish government has given up the ownership of the underwater treasures, because the Gulf of Vigo is Spain's territorial waters, foreign ships cannot go in to explore the treasures casually, and must go through security checks and pay a deposit of 200,000 US dollars for marine activities. Otherwise, it will be regarded as illegally trespassing into the territorial waters, and the consequences will be borne by yourself.

In fact, this is the business experience of the Spanish government, and the Spanish government has not collected less deposits for so-called maritime activities in recent years, and at the same time, it also means that the Spanish government believes that no one can really find the treasure.

Also thinking about it is the Spanish government that Odyssey has the same idea. It's not the first time they've gone to Vigo Bay to explore treasures, they've been there themselves, and some people have hired them like Ma Jiayao, but every time they return empty-handed, this time they're naturally not optimistic about finding treasures. But $1 million is 100 percent in their pockets.

After Xue Fei and Quan Zhenxi went to Spain for a few days, they went to Vigo Bay to meet Ma Jiayao and Odyssey on the pretext of meeting old friends living in Spain.

After the Odyssey company's ship passed the security inspection, and Ma Jiayao paid another 20 US dollars deposit, the Odyssey company took Xue Fei's map and accurately calculated it, and ten salvage crews entered the Atlantic Ocean at a depth of several kilometers to officially explore the treasure.

Although the Odyssey Company was already quite familiar with Vigo Bay, they had never salvaged the sea area on the map that Xue Fei took out, and the numbers on the map were very accurate, which made all the personnel of the Odyssey Company in charge of this salvage suddenly have a trace of expectation.

Ever since he learned that the map depicted Vigo Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, Xue Fei had some doubts about the numbers marked on the map. It's easy to measure the length, width and height of something on land and come up with an exact number. In the sea, measuring the depth of the sea water and the specific location of the treasure is not too difficult for modern technology, but three hundred years ago, Xue Fei really couldn't believe that Hancam could do it.

He felt that the numbers marked on the map must be off, and that deviation meant that he might not be able to find them, so he was prepared to find nothing.

All ten salvage crews have cameras on them, and their every move in the sea can be seen in the monitoring room on the salvage ship.

Xue Fei sat in front of the monitor, his eyes unblinking, and there was no expression on his face. Ma Jiayao, who was sitting next to Xue Fei, looked very nervous, frowning from time to time, and kept drinking water before running to the bathroom.

When the ten salvage crews had not yet fully reached the bottom of the sea, the cameras on their bodies vaguely illuminated some objects, and after Xue Fei and the others saw it, they all came together in front of the monitor, but unfortunately it was too blurry to tell what it was.

However, as we get closer and closer to the object, the picture gradually becomes clearer. When the ten salvage crews reached the bottom of the sea, and the images of the ten monitors showed all the dilapidated and decaying shipwrecks, Xue Fei and the others all stood up in shock.

Soon Xue Fei sat down again, and then let out a long sigh of relief. At this moment, instead of basking in the joy of finding the treasure, he was thinking about how Hanham had managed to accurately measure the location of the treasure three hundred years ago.

It's really amazing, Hancum is really a genius who is not born.

The Odyssey company did not expect to find the treasure at all, so it only sent two ships to Spain. Now that the treasure has been found, the two ships simply cannot carry the treasure of 5,000 wagons, so they have to immediately mobilize five large ships and go to Spain.

It took ten days to get all the treasures on the bottom of the sea to the ship. The treasures are mainly composed of gold bricks, gold coins, silver, exotic jewelry, crystal stones, etc., and the total value is at least about 5 billion US dollars according to the current market value. Many of the crystals are the kind of crystals that make the prosperous crystals, which shows that Hancam did come to Vigo Bay in the first place.

When the seven ships left Vigo Bay and sailed for Ma Jiayao's private island, Apple Island, the Spanish government wanted to cry without tears, and they wanted to slap their mouths.

However, Spain has also taken remedial measures. Before the Odyssey fleet left, the Spanish government signed a hypothetical confidentiality agreement with Xue Fei, the content of which was that Xue Fei would never disclose the search for treasure to the outside world, otherwise the Spanish government would seize all the treasures recovered.

Xue Fei understood that the Spanish government wanted to continue to earn money from the ocean deposit, and he didn't want to disclose this matter to the outside world at all, the outside world knew that there was no benefit to him, on the contrary, it would only bring danger, so Xue Fei signed directly without thinking about it.
