Chapter Ninety-Three: The Esplanade Museum
In order to be able to move flexibly and automatically in the sea, Yu You took off his diving suit and pressed the wetsuit with a heavy object to avoid being washed away by the seawater. Xiaobai and they are only temporarily trapped, and the giant octopus wants to exert its strength at the same time with eight claws, just using the adsorption of its wrists and feet, it controls the remaining seven heads of the dolphin army and Xiaobai, of course, with Xiaobai's ability, it is estimated that they can get out of trouble after a period of struggle.
Yu You, who entered the inside of the wreck, found a huge sac-shaped ball of flesh, and the lantern-like compound eyes stared directly at Yu You, making him feel a little hairy in his heart.
"It's just you vesicular guy doing the trick, right?" The giant octopus has no other wrists and feet to help, like a man without hands and feet.
Yu You stood on the deck of the wooden boat fearlessly and looked down at the giant octopus! The octopus seemed to understand Yu You's words, and the parrot-like mouth squirted out ink liquid, and the sea water became turbid, probably sensing that Yu You had a basalt totem in his body, so the cunning octopus chose to escape!
The ink mist is a prelude to the octopus' attempt to escape, and for most deep-sea creatures, it is a difficult means to deal with it, and the sight and perception will be minimized, but it will not affect the swim at all! With his own vision level and ability, he can't dive into such a deep sea at all, and it doesn't rely on his own perception, but the ability to be blessed by the Xuanwu totem, so the effect of this ink can be said to be minimal, but because after releasing this move, the giant octopus's wrists and feet are all put away, and it is ready to run away, of course, it will not be entangled with Xiaobai anymore.
"Youkai! Run there! Yu You learned Brother Monkey's iconic lines at the bottom of the sea, rushed forward, grabbed a retracted wrist and foot, and under the infusion of ichthyosaur energy, the huge Xuanwu coercion used this wrist and foot as a transmission belt, and transferred to the brain of the giant octopus.
Yu You could sense that the octopus's brain domain had been completely controlled by him, and the giant octopus had a higher degree of recovery than Xiaobai and Xiaohuang, and the degree of execution of You's orders was very high, no matter what order, it would be one hundred percent executed.
This should belong to predatory control, depriving the octopus of its own consciousness, and it may also be due to the greater resistance of the octopus, so the Xuanwu totem chose to erase the consciousness and create a consciousness that is completely obedient to swimming.
"I didn't expect it, I came to catch a wreck and ran into the nest of a giant octopus, and I was lucky, and with this 'deep-sea mobile multi-functional starting crane' in the future, it will be much more convenient to salvage the wreck in the deep sea." Yu You felt that this octopus came at the right time, so he couldn't rely on any deep-sea hook chain, after all, there are still many uncertainties about this kind of thing, such as the limit of load-bearing, once it breaks, the consequences are unimaginable, with the octopus as a porter, Yu You's workload on the bottom of the sea suddenly decreased, after all, dolphins and emperor ribbon fish are not as many wrists and feet as octopuses.
Yu You didn't bother to check how much porcelain and treasure there was in the wreck, hooked the four corners of the hull with a hook, he tried the hardness of the wood, it should be able to withstand it, and there was also the wrist and foot protection of the octopus in the back, the assistance of the Dolphin Army and the Emperor Ribbon Fish, and the wooden boat Yu You chose to salvage it as a whole.
If you fail to recover the octopus this time, you may be salvaged in batches at the conservative point of the swimming meeting, after all, the goods in the ship are fragile, and there is no suction cup of the octopus brachiopod to ensure the stability of the salvage process, and blind overall salvage is obviously not advisable, after all, this is a wooden boat, not an iron boat, and the force will not be too great, and after the octopus's brachiopod balance is offset.
The wooden ship of the Ming Dynasty was salvaged as a whole while preserving its integrity, and everyone laboriously put the hull on the deck, but fortunately, the hull of the sea ship 1000 was relatively large, which was able to tilt this ancient shipwreck.
Yu You mainly took into account that the salvage took too long this time, and there was not much time to sort out and classify the goods, so he chose the overall salvage of insurance, and the plan of the hull salvage Cai Lifan was just a gimmick, and the so-called free was actually impossible to salvage at all, but I didn't expect Yu You to be so kind.
"Come on, please the relevant departments, and fortunately, don't hide it from me in terms of identification!" Yu You thought like this, and asked the crew to sort out the goods in the wooden cabin, the more people are easier to do, and when they were ready to return to the port, they counted the goods in the ship.
What tea cakes and the like have long been soaked, there is no value at all, and the biggest harvest in the ship should be porcelain, according to statistics, there are about 350 pieces of antique porcelain that remain intact, about 500 pieces remain, and a team of porcelain pieces.
Maybe there are thousands of pieces of porcelain in that pile of porcelain, and these goods are sent to the ancient vassal countries to exchange gold and silver, you must know that this is an officially authorized transaction between countries, so there will be so many official kilns, which is why the relevant departments will know that there is a Ming Dynasty shipwreck here, because this is a shipwreck event recorded in history.
The salvage went relatively smoothly, returned to the port, Yu You asked Meng Tian to contact the relevant departments to send people to accept these porcelain, and the relevant appraisal value was also verified in person on the deck, in order to express the sincerity of the You Long Company, the hull of the ancient shipwreck, Yu You first let them transport it out, and the related personnel costs were paid by the public.
For the convenience of transportation, the hull was disassembled, and how to preserve it was the job of the experts, and Yu You was only responsible for salvage.
It is worth noting that this time to participate in the identification of the value of the salvage of the Ming Dynasty shipwreck cargo is responsible for the Binhai Museum, this time more than a dozen researchers, aged between 30-70, the first is to identify the complete porcelain, give an approximate market price, followed by the remnants of porcelain, which also has a certain value, according to the degree of mutilation to give a value range.
Yu You saw that the person at the head of the appraisal team was more familiar, wearing a Mao suit, sitting majestically in the temporary appraisal team office, listening to the researcher's report, and then picking up a piece of porcelain and admiring it carefully.
"Gu Lao, why are you? Are you a researcher at the Esplanade? Yu You stepped forward to greet Gu Xueming, who was the leader, and a young researcher held a porcelain and said: "Curator, I think we should do a carbon-14 dating test, in this way, it is more convincing." ”
"Less, we'll talk about it later." Gu Xueming's current performance is completely different from before, and he said to the young researcher seriously: "The detection of carbon 14 is only a certain role in ancient porcelain ware in the Tang and Song dynasties, and the Ming Dynasty is not long from the modern time compared to the previous two dynasties, and the error is large, so this kind of detection does not need to be done, it can be judged by the naked eye alone, I just submit an appraisal certificate." ”
Gu Xueming looked at these porcelains one by one, there is no doubt that they are indeed Ming Dynasty porcelain, and there is also the identification of the hull of the shipwreck, which has just been salvaged from the bottom of the sea, how can it be a fake.
After solving the jokes made by the young researchers due to their lack of experience, the valuation of the rest of the porcelain will wait for the researchers to complete a series of appraisals, and it will take some time to arrive at an appraisal table.
Gu Xueming had time to talk to Yu You and said, "Less, I didn't expect us to meet in this way." ”
"I'm also curious, Old Gu, are you the director of the Coastal Museum?"
You must know that the number of collections of the Coastal Museum is comparable to that of a world-class museum, and it is one of the largest museums in China.
"Haha, I'm just a small curator, but you're a big boss! This harvest is quite fruitful, salvaged such a large Ming Dynasty shipwreck, small, you have provided us with many cultural relics with historical research value for the coastal museum. ”
"Old Gu, don't bring me such a big hat, I'm just for money." Yu You is also telling the truth, the relevant departments bid in accordance with the sharing rules of the international salvage industry, and Yu You's company will participate.
"Anyway, there are a lot of porcelain in the Ming Dynasty this time, although there are many mass-produced porcelain, but there are also a few treasures, but unfortunately there are a few good porcelain among the broken porcelain......" Gu Xueming looked extremely sorry, for an antique appraisal worker like him, there is nothing more sad than seeing a good porcelain broken.
Yu You learned that Gu Xueming's true identity was the director of the Binhai City Museum, and he couldn't help but sigh that people can't look good, who would have thought that a person who didn't abide by the rules of the antique world, and tried to snatch the rabbit lamp that Yu You fancied, would be an expert among experts?
I guess I've seen too much deception and insider information in this industry, the so-called rules are just used to deceive new entrants, and the antique shop is not so harmonious and beautiful on the surface.
"Old Gu, I want to ask what the approximate price of the Ming Dynasty porcelain I salvaged this time will be?" Now that I have met an acquaintance this time, I can roughly know how much Yu You has gained from Gu Xueming's mouth.
Gu Xueming pondered for a while and said, "I think it should be no less than 50 million." ”
"Oh, then I won't bother you."
About 50 million, then 80 percent is 40 million fluctuations, just sailing back and forth for about two or three days to make so much money, this time the harvest can be imagined! Yu swims out to sea to fish once, as little as a month, as much as a few months, at most he will earn tens of millions, which still includes the intermediary fee of Minhang's cod volume! And it was fished in several pelagic waters.
It can be seen how big the profit from salvaging the wreck is, of course, this kind of nearby wreck salvage is unavoidable, and the procedures and related approvals are all head-scratching!
Yu You is now waiting for the notice, according to Gu Xueming's professionalism, a reasonable market price should be given, through this salvage project, Yu You's biggest gain is not an increase in money, but the recovery of a giant octopus!
This is the cornerstone of Yu You's next salvage mission, and Yu You will throw all the credit to Xiaobai every time he dives into the sea, and the relationship between Yu You and the Dolphin Legion, the crew also knows, so they will not suspect that Yu You has any special abilities, at most, the communication with the dolphins is relatively intimate, and he can command the dolphins to salvage through whistles, and understand that Yu You generally commands dolphins on the bottom of the sea within 100 meters......
If you want to say that Yu You has an ability, in the eyes of the crew, it may be the ability to tame beasts, which can also be done by the trainers in the aquarium.
