257. Poseidon Legion, arrived
Billy muttered for a while, and Qin Shiou figured out what had happened.
He returned to Miami after getting the captain's log of the Dun's Fish, and then restored the contents of the log in various ways, and fortunately, there was really an inside story of the captain's record on it.
The captain of the Dun's Fish, who was a participant in the Silver Incident, recorded the whole incident and then tragically chose to sink with the freighter. I thought that this matter would be buried at the bottom of the sea with the hundred tons of silver, but I didn't expect it to see the light of day again.
Qin Shiou estimated that in the secret archives of the Spanish government, the captain was treated as a hero, but now that this incident has happened, the Spanish government must treat him as a pig teammate, and it is estimated that he will be removed from the secret file hero book when he turns around.
Billy told him that the two sides negotiated for ten days, and finally the Spanish government gave in, and the remaining Shen Bao was no longer pursued, and it belonged to the Osside Company.
In the end, Billy gritted his teeth and said: "Count the lives of these biao sons, Qin, we are unlucky this time, if we get this captain's log half a year in advance, they don't want to take away a gold coin, a gold coin!" ”
Indeed, if the Spanish government's early years of deception and manipulation of the U.S. government are exposed, it will be a big event. Because until ∮∑ now, every time the two countries mention friendship, they will mention the support of the Spanish government during the American Revolutionary War and the interest-free loan of 500 tons of silver when the country was first established.
Five hundred tons of silver is nothing now, and the United States has become rich from the war wealth of World War I and World War II, but it was not the case when it was first founded, and Uncle Sam was really poor. President Washington had to disband the troops fighting him in order to save money.
In that situation, where they lived with their belts strained, Uncle Sam saved five hundred tons of silver for friendship and frugality and returned it to the matador government. To be honest, in order to save this batch of silver at that time. The U.S. government is not easy.
If the proud Uncle Sam knows that they have been fooled from beginning to end, and they are almost fooled into not eating, hehe, then there will be some play, at least there is no problem with the two countries having a diplomacy.
Is it any wonder that the Spanish government compromises and does not compromise? Let's not talk about whether it is worth offending the US government for the sake of 150 million. Even if the U.S. government were to deal with this matter impartially, they would have to pay back 500 tons of silver, and the Spanish government would not pay a billion dollars to calculate the stupidity of the politicians in the United States.
Billy wasn't wrong at all. If this journal had come out six months earlier, the Spanish government would not have wanted to take anything.
However, O'Sayd's negotiation team is obviously not vegetarian, Billy told Qin Shiou that they talked about a very valuable condition from the Spanish government, Qin Shiou didn't care about this, he asked directly: "When will I give me my 15% of the US dollars?" ”
"We'll have to wait until we get the gold and silver in place, and I'm actually in a hurry, because our company is already in deficit," Billy said. If it weren't for this log, it would have been a year at most, and I'm afraid we would have gone bankrupt! ”
Qin Shiou sighed vigorously in his heart, damn that he was still too virgin. Why is he stupid to ask for 15% of the value, and he wants 51% of the value of Orside.
Of course, this is just a casual thought. The tax to be paid after the salvage of the wreck is very high, if you really give him 51%. O'Ced might as well give this treasure to Spain, which would save trouble and worry.
Billy also has something to do when looking for Qin Shiou. Asked, "How was your harvest at George Ford?" Two treasures, did you find anything? ”
Qin Shiou rolled his eyes and said, "I still have something to do, hang up first." ”
It's really a pot that can't be opened, this baby has no eyesight, it's not worth cultivating, and Qin Da leader Long Yan is displeased.
Mrs. Wissell brought the dinner, and there was egg fried rice as the main dish, the rice was snow-white, the eggs were orange, and there were diced radish, corn kernels, small yellow beans and other things, and it smelled very good.
What was prepared for Iverson was a large stack of pies and pizzas, as well as a pot of fried meat, schnitzel, and a large bucket of milk, and Iverson's eyes lit up and he was spitting on his food.
Qin Shiou browsed the news on his mobile phone while eating, and the keyword was defined on the Oside, and a lot of news came out, and the headline of the Yahoo News collection section was "The Spanish Government Gives Up Pursuing the Odyssey's Remaining Shenbao: Cheers to Friendship".
Seeing the word 'Cheers to Friendship', Qin Shiou almost laughed and peed, make a bird's cup, both sides can't wait to strangle each other now.
This dinner was very refreshing, the tiger and the leopard were full of burps, Xiong Da rolled his eyes, no way, they had enough to eat fish at sea.
"Thank you for your hospitality, ma'am, and I have to say that your cooking is truly delicious." Qin Shiou thanks.
Mrs. Wisel smiled and said If you like it, the bed has been made and the room has been cleaned up, Qin Shiou put himself down on the bed when he returned to the room, closed his eyes, and went to sleep!
After going to sea for three days in a row, Qin Shiou planned to take a break, he was actually here to play, not for any treasure or fishing at all, so he wouldn't let himself be too tired.
Bringing a parasol and a drink, Qin Shiou went to Half Moon Beach, blowing the sea breeze and enjoying the sun, the seagulls on the sea not far away made a crisp cry from time to time, and the white waves beat the shore, this life is called a beauty.
Especially, even if he is lying here, Qin Shiou can also work, just like those anglers who can shade brff.
The anglers were unwilling, and they were still working hard to hunt for all kinds of bait around George Shoal, but they didn't know that they were working for Qin Shiou, who made them hate it so much.
There was no harvest for a few days, and they could only scold George Shoal for having no fish, in fact, it was not that there were no tuna in this area, but that these fish were all taken away by Qin Da Yuba before they were hooked......
In one day, Qin Shiou harvested fourteen more tuna, and the size of the fish school suddenly expanded to 100, officially breaking through the 100 tuna mark.
In the evening, Charles and the others returned to Hong Kong, and they did not catch bluefin tuna today, but they all had yellowfin tuna.
"That's not bad, isn't it, it's better to make a small amount of money than no money, haha." Charles is very open.
"Qin, go to the bar to have fun, I'll have a treat."
"Lucky Captain doesn't dare go to the bar, those chicks heard that we have a black gold centurion here, and they want to eat him with no bones left."
"It's still as good as Qin, blowing the sea breeze on the beach to watch beautiful girls during the day, and coming over at night to see those stupid anglers lose face, how happy."
Qin Shiou laughed, he was here to stimulate these anglers, for fear that these guys would lose their fighting spirit and leave Gloucesterhaven, so it would be much more difficult for him to find the bluefin tuna.
Rejecting Phelps's invitation to the bar, Qin Shiou proudly led the dog and the eagle away under the fire-breathing eyes of the anglers.
The reason why I had to refuse the invitation of Phelps and the others was because Qin Shiou had more important things to do, his spear squid hard labor group and sea python army had finally arrived at George Shoal! (To be continued......)
