Chapter 221: The Shipwreck
Originally, according to Tang Feng's calculations, three people each had two big pockets, each pocket contained about fifty kilograms of treasures, and the three of them each ran back and forth four times, and they could almost transport all the remaining treasures out. With the strength of a bottlenose dolphin, with a man and a fifty-kilogram bag, it is a piece of cake to swim back and forth under the water.
But Sam and Qiao Mu, the two fools, actually took the initiative to take over the task of transportation, and did not let Tang Feng interfere, so in this way, the two of them each had to run six round-trips. Although the dolphins helped them save a lot of effort and time, when all these treasures were transported to the yacht, the two fools were still tired of dogs.
Fortunately, there were no other ships around during the transportation, which also made Tang Feng feel a lot more relieved. To put it mildly, what Tang Feng is doing now is illegal. In Tang Feng, they did not report to the Puerto Rican government that they were going to hunt for treasures on this island, and then they just shipped out the treasures that belonged to the inherent territory of Puerto Rico, which was actually a kind of theft.
But when it comes to these legendary pirate treasures, who the hell cares about that? Moreover, Puerto Rico was now a free state under the United States, and its citizens did not even have the right to acquire American citizens, and in the eyes of the Americans, Puerto Rico was a second-class country. Even if it is discovered, at most it is a rip-off, don't forget, there is a barrister's father behind Sam, and the United States is known as the "country of lawyers", it is no exaggeration to say that in the United States, there is almost nothing that a lawyer can't solve.
And Sam, who is also a lawyer, may have been transported out of the treasure safely, so this guy is very excited now, and is chattering behind Tang Feng's ass and saying, "Hey." Feng, don't look at you now that you're a U.S. citizen, but do you really know U.S. lawyers? Let me tell you, even if our actions are discovered by the Puerto Rican government today, you don't have to worry, we have a lot of lawyers behind us to guarantee that we have nothing to do with these babes. Just as we did in Australia against the indigenous government of Australia, in the United States, lawyers can do anything! ”
"Also, in addition to my father, I know a lot of barristers myself, so I don't need my father to come forward for this matter."
Tang Feng couldn't help but stop the work of sorting those treasures in his hand and said, "I said man, aren't we doing this well?" Why do you need a lawyer? Are you lawyers all idle and have nothing to do? Or are there too many lawyers in Greater America? ”
"Haha, Wind, you're right. Isn't there a lot of lawyers in the United States? You may not know that there are more than 300 million people in the United States, and there are about 1.3 million registered lawyers, with an average of one lawyer for every 250 people. In comparison, there are about 300,000 lawyers in your former motherland of China, with more than 1.3 billion people, and an average of 4,000 people have one lawyer; There are more than 60 million people in France, and there are probably more than 50,000 lawyers. an average of one lawyer per 1,200 people; There are more than 80 million people in Germany, and about 160,000 lawyers. That is, an average of 500 people with one lawyer. I won't talk about other countries, but now do you know how terrifying the number of lawyers in the United States is? ”
The population of the United States accounts for only about 5% of the world's total population, and the land area accounts for about 6%, but its industrial and agricultural products and the service products it provides account for about 25% of the world, but the most terrifying thing is that. The U.S. accounts for 35% of the world's lawyers!
Seeing that Sam, who was getting more and more excited, was still chattering, Tang Feng reached out and made a "STOP" gesture, and said with a smile: "Sam, or I'll tell you a joke!" ”
Sam nodded in agreement, in fact, this guy is just having nothing to say right now. to ease the excitement and agitation in his heart.
The joke goes like this, with several Americans, Russians and Cubans traveling in the same train box. While the train was moving, the Russians took out a bottle of vodka and drank it, but after a few sips, the bottle was thrown out of the window. The Americans did not understand why he was so wasteful, and the Russians replied: our country has the best vodka, and there is also the most vodka. It's so much that you can throw it away! ”
The Cuban next to him was smoking a cigar and quietly threw a half-smoked cigar out of the window. The Americans said, "Why do you bother?" The Cubans replied: In our Cuba we have the best cigars and we have the most cigars. If you throw it away, you don't have to worry about waste. The American thought about it, didn't say a word, got up and opened the window, turned his head and threw the accompanying lawyer out of the window......"
The arbor who was driving the boat squirted out with a pop, and Sam spread his hands and said in disappointment: "Fine, fine!" Oh wind, you guy is insulting us lawyers."
Tang Feng laughed, lowered his head and continued to fiddle with those treasures, and said, "I just made a joke. Okay man, stop talking nonsense, we need to hurry up and sort out these treasures, and we have to think of a way to make these treasures have a reasonable and legal name, otherwise we won't dare to take these things out! ”
Sam laughed and said, "Wind, you don't have to worry about this matter, I've already figured out a way!" Remember when we were at Explorer, we used to locate those two shipwrecks for a salvage company in Europe? ”
Tang Feng nodded and said, "Do you mean that when I first came, we gave ExxonMobil oil and gas fields in the Gulf of Mexico, and then went to the Caribbean Sea to find a shipwreck?" That's right, I remember! ”
Sam smiled: "Actually, what we found at that time was not two wrecked ships, but four wrecked ships, long before you came to the explorer company, the explorer company cooperated with the European salvage company, and at that time also found two other wrecks in that area, but the two ships were already broken, and the salvage company thought that there was no salvage value, so the two ships were not salvaged." However, it was precisely because of the existence of those two ships that the salvage company thought that a fleet had sunk in that area, so they hired our explorer company to conduct a second survey and positioning, and the result really allowed us to find the other two ships! ”
Tang Feng's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean that we can use the two wrecks that the Explorer Company found in the first place that have no salvage value?" ”
"That's right! Man, those four ships should be ships of a fleet, and their sinking sites are all located on the high seas, and the most important thing is that, after judgment, the two ships that were salvaged are both pirate ships! It does not belong to any country at all, so it eliminates the problem of other countries claiming the right of ownership! (To be continued......)
