Chapter 81: Returning to the Old Job

The Ryukyu Islands are located in the East China Sea, northeast and southwest, including the Osumi Islands, the Togara Islands, the Amami Islands, the Okinawa Islands, the Miyako Islands, and the Yaeyama Islands. Historically, the Ryukyu Islands www.biquge.info had long been part of China's sphere of influence. Before 1871, there was the Ryukyu Kingdom, and during the Ming Dynasty of China, the ruler of Ryukyu Island was named the King of the Ryukyus. Due to its convenience by waterways, it is a trade hub for neighboring countries.

At present, it is under the jurisdiction of Japan, a defeated country in World War II, but the administrative power of some areas is still exercised by the United States, and more than 70% of the US military bases in Japan are concentrated in the Ryukyus. In 1972, the U.S. military handed over the Ryukyu Islands to Japanese trusteeship (sovereignty does not belong to Japan).

"Could it be that those treasures were really found by Little Japan?"

"Nope!" Shaking his head, William Gynt explained, "Even if the rumors are true, what they found is only one of the insurance policies I have set aside to distract the treasure hunters into believing that the treasure has been found, and to leave. ”

"In other words, the real treasure is still safe and sound?"

"Although I can't guarantee it 100%, I'm 80% sure!" William Gynt was confident, "When I buried the treasure, I took great pains to design it. Not only did they leave a lot of small treasures on other islands, so they set up a suspicious array, and the cave where the treasure was buried was completely blown up with explosives, and if you didn't know the detailed address, it would be impossible to find it easily! ”

"In order to hide these treasures, it seems that you have put a lot of thought into it, and even used explosives!"

"No way! From the first day I became a pirate, I knew in my heart that I was going to be caught sooner or later! Just in case, instead of being drunk and indulging in alcohol like other pirates, I desperately amassed my possessions and searched for suitable treasure spots in order to leave a huge inheritance for my family! Hey, it's a pity ......."

Li Yan also knew what was going on, William Ginter, who wanted to accept Zhao'an and return to normal life, was tragically betrayed and imprisoned.

And originally wanted to hand over the secret of the treasure place to his wife, but he was discovered by the guards, so as to reveal this shocking secret to the world.

Hundreds of years later, William Gynt's descendants have long since scattered around the world, and their whereabouts are unknown. Even if Li Yan wants to make amends, I'm afraid that it has already been realized.

After experiencing life and death, William Gynt quickly saw these things outside of his body, and immediately devoted himself to the analysis of the burial place of the treasure.

For the next few days, Li Yan locked himself in his study, and together with William Ginter, they discussed how to remove the treasure without realizing it.

Since it is under the jurisdiction of Japan, and it involves a very sensitive issue of pirate treasures, Li Yan's plan must be meticulous and foolproof! Once the locals detect the anomaly, it is likely to lead to the outright bankruptcy of the project.

After taking all possible accidents into account and being busy for more than a week, Li Yan came out of the study.

Stretching comfortably, Li Yan looked at the sun that was gradually disappearing outside the window, and the corners of his mouth grinned, "Hehe, little Japan, your master, I'm here!" ”

――

――

Because he had previous experience in salvaging the "Zhongmei" gold rush ship, Li Yan was much more handy in this preparation activity. Moreover, the burial place of the treasure is no longer the troublesome seabed, but directly on the island, so the whole salvage work is much easier.

After several days of contact and preparation, Li Yan waved goodbye to Ruan Yumei on the dock and sailed towards the sea with the fleet.

Because of the scarcity of professional salvage personnel in Huaxia and the sensitivity of the destination, Li Yan did not disclose the specific details and crew of the voyage.

The only people who really knew the details were the three Chinese-Americans that Nguyen Ngoc Mei had temporarily recruited from abroad. Together with Li Yan, they disguised themselves as film crews who traveled to the Ryukyus to cover up their true identities.

Sailing at sea is boring and boring. The endless ocean surface seems to be beautiful and vast, but after looking at it for a long time, it will give birth to a strong sense of boredom, which is annoying.

Lying in the hammock in the cabin, Li Yan chatted with the three of them without a ride. However, because of the differences in the work he was engaged in, Li Yan soon found that he could not fit into the conversation between the three. After making an excuse, Li Yan withdrew with interest.

Fortunately, the journey was not far away, and after most of the day's voyage, the captain informed Li Yan that they had sailed out of the Huaxia Sea and into the open sea, and that they would soon enter the territorial waters of Japan.

For emotional reasons in his heart, even though Li Yan did not dig out the treasure at this time, he still woke up all the crew members and cheered up in case of accidents.

However, Li Yan's worries are obviously excessive. Except for the customary radio inquiries from the Japan Coast Guard, Li Yan's fleet was not hindered in any way.

All kinds of formalities and documents have been prepared by Ruan Yumei, who has long been well versed in them. If the Japanese side can't find anything wrong, it will naturally not embarrass them. After all, on this waterway, hundreds of Chinese ships come and go every day, and even if they have the heart, they don't have the strength to go to the scrutiny one by one.

In the panic of Li Yan alone, the fleet successfully reached this destination, the Ryukyu Islands, which is called Okinawa Prefecture in Japan.

"You can stay on the boat or wander around, but remember, don't run far! Our photography work can end at any time, which means I'll keep you back on the road! In case no one can be contacted at that time, don't blame me for not notifying in advance, the ship waits for no one! If you can't get on the boat then, you can find a way to go back by yourself! ”

The rich ones are the uncles, since it is these crew members hired by Li Yan with a lot of money, so even if it is a strange request, the crew will not refute it. After nodding his head to show that he understood, he dispersed in twos and threes.

"Pack your gear and set off in half an hour!" After looking at the sky, Li Yan whispered to the three professional team members.

When we set sail from China, the sky will be bright, but it will be four or five o'clock. After most of the day's sailing, when Li Yan arrived here, it was just after nightfall, and the sky was gradually darkening.

Since he was 'digging a corner' on someone else's territory, Li Yan naturally chose to do it in the middle of the night when no one was around, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Half an hour later, they packed up and returned to Li Yan with the three of them wearing professional exploration equipment. After admonishing the captain again, Li Yan led the three of them towards the island.

Li Yan was in the center, looking down at the map while correcting the direction of progress for the three of them. However, it seems that he is leading the way, but in fact, it is William Ginter who is pointing the way into the mountain behind his back.

But after all, more than 300 years have passed, and many landforms are no longer what they were back then.

Many of the roads of the past have been covered by weeds and forests. Li Yan and the four of them had to open the road and move forward, and it was very difficult to walk.

"Smack"

Splitting a shrub blocking the road, a pile of rocks appeared in front of Li Yan. Frowning and measuring the height of the pile of rocks, Li Yan immediately walked around to his side.

However, the width of this pile of rocks obviously exceeded Li Yan's expectations. After walking for three or four minutes, I still couldn't get around.

"Boss! Here, here is ......" William Ginter's excited emotions made Li Yan's heart move, and he couldn't help but say: "Could it be that this is the cave where you buried your jewelry?" ”

"That's right! It should be here! After observing the surrounding scene, William Kington nodded and said, "Although the surrounding trees and flowers are no longer what they used to be, there is nothing wrong with this pile of rocks!" This was supposed to be a cliff, a pile of rocks that I had blown up with explosives. ”

"Hehe, we don't have to guess here if it's yes or no, you can go in and see if you know everything!"

"That's right! I can go in and see what I'm doing now! Awakened by Li Yan, William Gynt nodded, and then went into the cave.

After about ten minutes, William Gynter, who was excited, came out again, "Boss, this is the cave, this is the cave where I originally buried my treasure!" ”
