Chapter 273: Caribbean Sea Charts
"Hi Jiang, how's it going? My lucky manor owner, is you interested in my treasure map? Seeing Jiang Hai squatting down and rummaging at random, the big man couldn't help but smile and squatted down with a proud face.
"Is there some interest, your treasure map here, all true?" Casually rummaging through the charts in front of him, Jiang Hai also has a fishing ground after all, so he also has some understanding of charts and the like, although he is not as powerful as a real navigator and captain, but at least he can still understand the charts.
"Of course, the things you can insult me are fake, but you can't insult a great Viking is fake, these things are brought from Northern Europe by my grandfather, there are not only charts near the Caribbean, shipwreck routes, but also Atlantic and European ones, absolutely true." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the big man here said a little unhappily.
"Alright, the only one we have Viking blood here is Edward Anderson, and now he's employed by this young man in front of you, if you let Daddy Anderson know that you dare to bluff his boss, beware of him shoving your head in your X eye." Just as the big man in front of him was talking there, a man sitting next to him couldn't help but smile and said.
This man, Jiang Hai also has some impressions, he is also a person who often mixes with fish trading grounds, and he used to be with this man, and he should also be a townsman from Winthrop, and he is also selling things there at this time, basically some small household appliances and books.
"Hey, Sauron, if you don't tear down my platform. I was going to treat you to a drink in the evening. But now. The wine is gone. Hearing Sauron's words, the man who was still selling Jiang Hai's charts said helplessly.
"Don't, Jiang, to be honest, this guy's family is indeed from Europe, and these charts of his are all true, but it's a pity. Someone bought it before, and the chart was real, but it couldn't be salvaged, so ...... If you just buy a chart to use as an ornament, it is a good choice. As soon as he heard the wine, the man immediately changed the direction of the wind.
For a fisherman, a sailor, the most attractive thing is, of course, women, and besides women. The only thing that cannot be missing on the sea is wine. Because looking at the same scenery every day can really drive people crazy.
Sometimes getting drunk is the happiest thing.
So fishermen, in a way, ninety percent are drunkards, and as soon as this guy said it, he hooked Sauron's wine worm out, although he was still very jealous of Edward Anderson, who once had descendants of pirates, and according to legend, he also killed killer whales and trained frogmen of the American empire, but compared to a good glass of wine, these are nothing.
"Why can't the charts be salvaged when they're real?" Hearing this person's words, Jiang Hai was also stunned for a moment.
Originally, he wanted to leave, and since these charts were not real, it didn't mean anything to him.
But as soon as he heard this person's words, Jiang Hai's footsteps that were already about to leave temporarily stopped again.
"Because it's too deep." But this time, before the two of them finished speaking, suddenly a voice came from behind Jiang Hai.
Jiang Hai looked back and unexpectedly found that he was also an acquaintance, Bob George, that is, the owner of the horse farm when Jiang Hai bought the horse, compared to this old gentleman, Jiang Hai was more familiar with his daughter who followed him, Di Lia.
"Hello, Jiang, I heard that you have been in the limelight at the New York Beef Cattle Show recently, and you have made a lot of money." Seeing Jiang Hai turn his head, Bob George stepped forward and hugged Jiang Hai first, and said with a smile on his face.
Compared with the last time, this time he was obviously more enthusiastic than the last time, after all, no one would refuse a billionaire, and he also proved his billionaire friendship, since there is such a relationship, it is natural to grasp it.
"Hello, Mr. George, how are you doing?" Hearing his words, Jiang Hai also smiled and said to him.
"Haha, it's still the same." Seeing that Jiang Hai still remembered himself, Bob George also said with a smile.
And Di Liya, who was behind him, was also looking at Jiang Hai curiously, in fact, to be honest, Di Liya didn't have a good impression of Jiang Hai, nor did she have any bad feelings, she met Jiang Hai from the beginning, and she was more curious about Orientals.
But later learned that he had good ball skills and the like, and she also wanted to contact him, but when she called Jiang Hai, Jiang Hai never called, nor did she send a text message, which made this little girl quickly forget Jiang Hai.
This year, she is about to take the university entrance examination, although the college entrance examination of the American imperialists is not as difficult as that in China, so what has changed.
But she also has to take an exam, and she doesn't consider it when the school recommends her, because she wasn't a good person when she went to school.
Although it's not like others say, changing boyfriends is more diligent than changing clothes, but as the captain of the cheerleading team, she has naturally changed her boyfriend a few times, and her reputation at school will naturally not be very good, and in the serious exam, she feels that if she takes the dance test, maybe she will get a good score, but if she takes the cultural class, she has the urge to die.
She definitely won't be able to go to college, and community college is about the same, so she is ready to find a job in advance.
Going home to help her father take care of the horse farm is not what she wants, and now if she can catch the line of Jiang Hai, a billionaire, it may be an opportunity, at this time, looking at Jiang Hai and her father's enthusiastic appearance, she pretended to be a lady behind her back.
"You just said that his charts are real, but you can't fish them out because they're too deep?" No matter what Di Liya thinks at this time, Jiang Hai has already finished talking to her father, in fact, the two are not too familiar, so the so-called cold noise is just a few words, Jiang Hai wants to know the stories of these charts more than chatting with this old man.
"This guy's grandfather was the first batch of Europeans to come to the American continent, and he is indeed a descendant of a pirate, you also know what happened to the June flower at the beginning, his grandfather was indeed sent over because of piracy, and ninety percent of the charts he brought were true, until his father's generation, and he used these charts to make a fortune." Hearing Jiang Hai ask about this, Bob George couldn't help but laugh and said.
In fact, this matter is not a secret in Winthrop, and many people know about it.
This man's father once exchanged these charts with some dignitaries for a certain amount of money, and in these charts, there were indeed some very valuable shipwrecks, which brought a lot of money to his father.
But unfortunately, his father was an alcoholic and gambler, and later he was also involved in drugs, and all the money he exchanged was gone.
In the end, when this man was twelve years old, he died in a car accident, and his father left only these shipwrecks that had been sold and had been determined to be impossible to salvage, because these wrecks were indeed too deep.
Use some submarines to explore, these wrecks are basically about 8,000 meters below sea level, and even more than 10,000 meters.
At the current level in the world, it is very troublesome to fish for about five thousand meters, such as the United Kingdom, with the strength of the whole country, at most it is to fish a 4.8 kilometer, that is, 4800 meters of shipwreck, eight thousand meters, it is really something that is fished up, and it has not cost much money, after all, not all shipwrecks are called Nanhai No. 1, even if these ships are pirate ships.
But not all pirate ships are rich, pirates also have to fight, even if there will be some valuable things on the main ship, auxiliary ships and the like, thousands or eight million will be over, but this money is clearly not enough to salvage the money.
Hearing Bob George's words, the big man on the other side smiled a little awkwardly, it was true, and he had nothing to refute, but his words made Jiang Hai a little moved.
Others can't enter the deep sea because of the water pressure, but he doesn't care, he is not afraid of water pressure, and he doesn't need to breathe, it doesn't matter if he goes into the water, the only thing he needs to worry about is his safety, but he can't use it now, it doesn't mean that he can't do it in the future.
"I want one of each of your drawings here." After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Hai suddenly turned his head and said to this person.
"One of the same? What do you want these things for? Even if it's a collection, you should want some genuine products, and he clearly printed them. Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Bob George was a little confused, he said everything he should have said, did he think he was lying to him? Otherwise, where would there be such a big reaction? Still the same one?
"Oh, I just feel that if I get these charts on my boat, and then take some photos and send them back to China, I must feel very good, let's talk about the price, these are the same one, how much?" Hearing Bob George's words, Jiang Hai smiled and said with a nonchalant expression, it is indeed useless for him to ask for these pictures, but those treasures sleeping in the ocean are very useful.
"Well, rich people's hobbies are always different from ours, haha, if you have time, remember to come to my horse farm, I can get a lot of good horses recently." Seeing that Jiang Hai didn't listen to him, Bob George probably felt offended, so he didn't say much, just politely said a word to Jiang Hai, and then left with his daughter.
At this time, Jiang Hai didn't have the leisure to care about what this old man was thinking, he was still looking at the person in front of him.
"The same one, how much is it." Taking out his wallet, Jiang Hai looked at him with a serious face and said word by word.
"Hey, brother, seventeen charts, one Franklin, it's all yours." Hearing Jiang Hai say it again, this person reacted, and immediately picked one out of the stall, and then handed it to Jiang Hai, and said excitedly.
And Jiang Hai was not polite, took the seventeen charts in his hand, handed him a hundred dollars of knives, Jiang Hai took these things back to Robbins, and now he was a little eager to study these charts. (To be continued.) )
