Chapter 342: Ask Shu Peipei to find a technique
The afternoon sun went down to the cabin, and Xie Daxia also followed. After entering, I saw that there was mud and sand everywhere, the stairs, the floor, and even the wooden plank bed of the crew were covered with thick mud and sand. Xie Daxia flipped it with his hand, but as a result, he couldn't see anything in the already muddy cabin.
Floating on the surface, Shu Peipei asked, "Mr. Xie, Mr. Zhang, what's in there?" β
Daxia said: "There is mud and sand everywhere, and there is no way to see clearly. β
"Is that pumping out the sediment?" Shu Peipei asked.
Daxia said: "I think, it's the crew's lounge, and it's impossible to have any value in pumping mud and sand." β
"For underwater archaeology, the historical value of the crew's belongings is far greater than the value of the cargo," said Miss Jones. β
Without waiting for Shu Peipei to translate, Wuyang said, "Let's pump the sediment, so as not to leave regrets for you archaeologists." I looked around the hull yesterday and didn't see any holes, I guess it was a big storm and capsized, and when we finished cleaning the inside of the cabin, we checked it again, and if it was really intact, I would hang it up and drag it back, and we would have one more rare exhibit in the museum. When the time comes, we will announce the archaeological results of Miss Jones and Miss Shu, what do you think? β
Shu Peipei said: "Thank you, thank you so much. Then translate for Jones.
After hearing this, Jones showed a smile on his face and said repeatedly: "OK, OK, Mr. Zhang, you are a real collector of antiquities, not a pirate." β
Wuyang's nose was crooked by what she said. It turns out that these people are still a group of pirates in the minds of others. But too lazy to care. I don't care about it, people obviously say you're not a pirate.
Before the rubber pipe was brought up, Wuyang arranged for another boat to also drop the rubber pipe, and asked the workers of the two boats to prepare to pump the mud, jumped into the sea by themselves, and dragged the rubber pipe into the cabin.
After the sediment was pumped, it became clear in the cabin. The suction of the mud pump is very strong, and a bilge is quickly pumped clean. Wuyang felt that these places were very small in size. The head of the rubber tube must be controlled by a person, and now it is possible to do it by yourself, but it will not work soon. I had to float to the surface. Tell Xie Daxia to come down.
After Xie Daxia came down. It is much more convenient for two people to control. The faster you pump, the better the visibility inside the cabin. In less than an hour, it was all pumped clean.
The two began to search inside the cabin, and found a gold ring in addition to some scattered copper coins. In each cabin, there were some small wooden boxes with copper locks, and Wuyang reached out to unscrew the copper locks. It can't be screwed at all, although it has undergone hundreds of years of seawater corrosion. The copper lock is still very strong. Wuyang went to knock on the wooden box, and the wooden box was also firm, and it couldn't be broken, so it had to surface to the sea.
I went up to the deck and saw the workers washing the things that the mud pump had pumped up, "Wait." "Wuyang saw a worker preparing to throw something into the sea, not a stone.
The worker was startled by his sudden words and hurriedly stopped. Wuyang took it and saw that it was human teeth, molars.
"Master, have you lost a lot of this kind of thing?" Wuyang asked.
"No, we just finished pumping, and we just started washing, and we didn't lose anything."
"Okay, this is drawn out of the cabin, don't throw anything away, okay?"
"Okay, I'll wash the mud off, and you'll have to inform the boat."
Wuyang shouted, and the other workers on the boat answered.
At this time, Shu Peipei walked over, "Mr. Zhang, what have you found?" β
Xie Daxia handed over the gold ring, "I only found this, and there is the wooden box in the cabin." β
"Those wooden boxes are for the crew to carry their personal belongings, and they are of great archaeological value, so let's find a way to get them," Shu said. Pay special attention to the captain's quarters, which may have more stuff in there. β
Wuyang said, "Miss Shu, is the ancestor the captain?" β
"Yes. Our family trades, and the ships and the goods on board are all our family's, and we have not paid for the goods on credit, so our family's goods are the best at that time. β
"The reputation is very good, of course, you can purchase good items, sell them, and you can get a good price. Miss Shu, your family has been engaged in overseas trade for more than 1,000 years, and your family still has ships, how did you master the navigation technology? Wuyang said.
"Our family has been passed down from generation to generation. Every time we go to sea, there are a few people in the family, and there will be people who have gone to sea before, so our family's business can continue to do it. β
"I see. Well, let's hurry up and get to work, the sun will be at the top soon, and the hottest part of the day will be coming. If there is no crane, let's use a winch, and you arrange for the workers to winch the wooden box up. β
Xie Daxia said: "Miss Shu, you still have to go and register the cultural relics, I'll come." Xiao Zhang, the two of us, just one of us can go into the water, you can go down quickly. So saying, he began to throw the metal basket into the sea, and threw the noose down.
Without saying a word, Wuyang dived, collected the metal basket, pulled the noose, and entered the cabin. When I arrived at the slightly larger cabin, I saw that the wooden box was also larger than the other cabins, and the other cabin had 3 bunks inside, and the 3 wooden boxes were also quite large.
The largest wooden box, which was barely moved at noon, was easily pushed to the deck with the help of the buoyancy of the water. But the metal basket couldn't fit at all, so it had to be wrapped around it with a noose. If you're done with the big ones, the rest will be easy to do. A total of 36 wooden boxes, in less than an hour, all were made.
Xie Daxia found a wire and began to unlock the lock. Xie Daxia, this guy, belongs to the kind of person who is ingenious in everything except reading, and Wuyang is sighing to himself.
The lock of the large wooden box was opened, and there was some plaster inside, presumably formed after the decay of clothes and other items. After rinsing it off, there was a gold belt inside. Isn't this the relic of the ancestors of the Shu Peipei family?
"Miss Shu, come and see, you have found the gold belt." Xie Daxia shouted loudly.
Shu Peipei ran over and took it. When he found that word, he cried out loud.
Despite receiving a Western-style education, when faced with the relics of the ancestors. It's still the appearance of the little daughter.
This kind of thing is not easy to persuade, Xie Daxia continued to open his lock, and Wuyang went in to take a bath, leaving her crying alone.
When she came out of the shower and changed clothes, Shu Peipei held the gold belt in her hand, "Mr. Xie, Mr. Zhang." Which of you will be my husband. β
The hero was still unlocking his lock, but he didn't answer, so Wuyang had no choice but to come forward. "Miss Shu. What's wrong? β
"Before I came out, I swore in front of the ancestral spirit that whoever helped me find the relic of my ancestor, I would marry him. Now it's the two of you who helped find it. It's a pity that I can't be separated, so I can only marry one of you. β
"Miss Shu, stop quickly. Boss Xie's wife is about to give birth, and I am a lot of wives and children, and it is impossible for us to marry you. Calm down, look at the gold and silver treasures in this wooden box, what are you going to do with it. β
Wuyang approached the wooden box. I saw that there were gold coins and silver coins inside, all of which were more than 100 pieces. More of it's copper coins,
Shu Peipei was also attracted to it, grabbed the coins and looked at them, "Mr. Zhang, are these coins worth anything?" β
Wuyang said, "Do you have a notebook?" Is it Wi-Fi? Just look it up on the Internet. β
Shu Peipei said: "Our notebook is registered in the United States, and it may not be possible to access the Internet here. β
"Let's talk about it after dinner, I'm hungry." Xie Daxia said.
"Hero, have the locks been opened?"
Daxia smiled, "These locks are all mechanical, and there is no scientific and technological content in unlocking, so it's not casual." However, these locks are hundreds of years old, and they are cultural relics in themselves, so I am afraid of damaging them, so I open them more slowly. β
After eating, Shu Peipei turned on her laptop to surf the Internet, but there was no signal at all, so she had to give up.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Xie, I don't want one of these coins, is it okay?" Shu Peipei asked.
Wuyang said: "This big wooden box is your family's inheritance, we only take one of each, and the rest is yours, at your disposal." β
"Alright then, I'll give it to you. Don't be in a hurry to take a stand, listen to me first. If I bring it back to the United States, what I will lose is Chinese cultural relics, and if I take it back to my hometown, it will also be distributed to my people, and I still won't get it. Why don't you give them to you, you take them, and exchange them for other coins, and then you can set up a numismatic museum, how about it? β
Wuyang said: "Miss Shu, can the numismatic museum be built in your hometown and in your name?" β
"Don't, don't, I don't want this false name. The clansmen asked my parents to pay for the construction of the ancestral hall and the genealogy, but my parents couldn't get the money, and now they are building the museum in vain, which is not to give my parents a long face, but a slap in the face. β
Xie Daxia said: "Miss Shu, when did your clansmen ask your parents for money?" β
"It's this year, I don't know the specifics, and I don't want to worry about it."
"Then you promise them that it won't cost much to repair the ancestral hall and genealogy. I'll give you this money, you help us preside over the salvage work, and we pay you another salary, 50,000 US dollars a month? β
"Then what's so embarrassing, you can also find someone else's job for this job."
Daxia said: "Others may not be as knowledgeable as you, nor may they be as dedicated as you." However, since we are partners, the matter of marrying us cannot be mentioned again. β
Shu Peipei smiled: "It turns out that you are waiting for me here." I promise you. However, when you send someone again, don't send someone who is already married, think about it, I am a woman in the prime of life, sleeping on this sea, sleeping in the open air, and living like a nun, can I persevere? β
Daxia said: "Miss Shu, to be honest with you, there is no suitable boy for you in our company." You might as well let Miss Jones go back and summon another lover to take charge of the work." β
Shu Peipei said: "It's a good mention yΓ¬." Mr. Xie, you see, the notebook is open, we just write out the agreement, you just bring a USB flash drive back, I will be your contracted employee from now on. β
Wuyang said: "You also have to help us contact the people in our hometown and be responsible for buying the land for the museum." β
Shu Peipei said: "Mr. Xie, Mr. Zhang, I think you are all rich. My ancestral hometown, the place is very good, and now the water and land transportation are developed. If you don't invest in industrial and commercial enterprises, you can make profits, and I can be regarded as contributing to the construction of my hometown. β
Wuyang smiled: "Miss Shu, does Miss Shu have a clansman who works in the local government agency?" It's okay to let Mr. Xie invest, but it must be done in your name. Miss Shu, you may not know that running a domestic enterprise and a foreign and foreign-funded enterprise are very different, and the tax policy is completely two different concepts. β
"If only you said yes. I'll do the rest. Mr. Zhang, it seems that you are very expert. Do you have any projects that you need to invest in? If you have, you can do it right away. β
Daxia said: "Miss Shu, we don't have a project for the time being, but we have intentions. Our biggest intention is to take a share of the world's aviation sector. For example, the production of aircraft spare parts. and the materials used to manufacture these spare parts, etc. I know. It's not Miss Shu alone, or even your own people in the country who can help. But your hometown is a hometown of overseas Chinese, and your people must be all over the world, maybe there are such people in it. You take advantage of this opportunity to cultivate the ancestral hall and genealogy, and get to know such people, so that they can serve us. β
Shu Peipei smiled and said, "Mr. Xie, they call you Boss Xie, I thought it was a joke." I didn't expect you to be really the boss, talking. One by one. Tell me, how are you going to work with them? β
"Our cooperation conditions are very relaxed, we don't care whether others contribute or not, we don't care how the profits are shared, we don't care who the products are sold to, what we value is that it must be produced domestically, and the taxes must be handed over to our country. You know, at present, the profits of the aviation industry are very high, and where you settle down, you can create a new economic growth point for you. β
Shu Peipei thought for a while and said, "Aren't you rushing to get people to sign unequal treaties?" Hey, no, your purpose is not here, I think you just want to master the core technology so that you can produce it yourself, right? β
Xie Daxia smiled, "Miss Shu is so smart, our starting point is here." If you think about it, if we produce in our country, our technicians will definitely have to participate, three years, five years, ten years and eight years, if we can't master the technology, we will be stupid to death. β
"No, you guys are too explicit like this, people won't be fools, it's impossible for you to take your job."
"I'm telling you, if I tell you, it's still secretive, will you be happy? When negotiating with other companies, you have to be careful and take every step of the way, Miss Shu, do you say that's the case? β
"Mr. Xie, Boss Xie, you are a real businessman, better than my parents who have been in business all their lives. I'll take over your job. But we need to negotiate the remuneration first, or I'm afraid of working in vain. β
"There are dozens of spare parts, thousands of parts in the manufacture of airplanes, and we only talk about spare parts. How much do you think you need to get paid for winning a spare part, let's talk about it first. β
Shu Peipei said: "Mr. Xie, if I use extraordinary means, can I directly get the core technology?" β
"Absolutely, and we'll be paid much more. But we must first make it clear, for example, if you get a titanium alloy production process formula, we can't check it, and we don't dare to rashly use it to produce, so we must have the technical indicators of the titanium alloy that match it, such as density, hardness, strength, ductility, these parameters are all indispensable. β
Shu Peipei stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "That's only to entrust the CIA and the KGB." β
"The KGB had such a successful precedent decades ago, but they did not acquire all the technology, but only a part of it, and then relied on their own strong technical strength to solve the problem. This has also made other countries more vigilant, and there is no possibility of success in the future. Wuyang said.
At this time, a worker came over and said, "Boss Xie, our boat is leaving." β
The hero asked, "Is it full?" β
"It's full. All 5,000 wooden crates have been transferred to a boat, and the next step is to load them in plastic baskets. The boat next to us is gone, and the boat with the plastic basket can come close. β
The hero said, "You are busy, I will tell Captain SΓΉ." Xiao Zhang, Miss Shu, you are chatting. β
Lao Sun went to work again, and Wuyang asked, "Lao Sun, how is the cabin of the egg white glaze printed porcelain handled?" β
Lao Sun said: "I've been doing it for two hours, and after going down this time, it may not work, and I have to go down and get it again." β
"I'll go down and help too. When you're done here, go over and help them. But you all have to wait, now go down and load the basket, and there is no crane. β
After speaking, she began to put on a diving suit, Shu Peipei watched from the side, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, you seem to have endless energy." β
Wuyang said, "Yes, I'm young. Besides, if you want to make money, where can you be lazy. β
Shu Peipei said: "You just pretend, continue to pretend." β
Lao Sun also said: "Xiao Zhang, I don't think it's right, you relied on an oxygen cylinder last night and worked in the wreck for 5 hours, that workload is more than my 10 hours." This is not something that ordinary people can do. β
"Don't talk nonsense."
Xie Daxia walked over, "The boat will leave immediately, and it will take about 10 days to get home if you want to make a detour to the mouth of the Yangtze River." β
"Is everything arranged at home?" Wuyang asked.
"It's okay, I'll go to her hometown with Miss Shu tomorrow, spend two or three days, and go back in time." Daxia said.
Shu Peipei said: "Mr. Xie, we haven't talked about the remuneration yet!" β
"Let's talk about it now, you can talk first."
"I want $10 million."
Daxia smiled: "Miss Shu, you have negotiated a cooperation project for spare parts, I will give you 100 million US dollars, and I will also give you 10 million yuan for activity funds." What do you think? β
Shu Peipei said: "Then if I can't negotiate, what punishment is there?" β
"Without punishment, we can't punish you. This matter is originally a big luck, if it hits, it is the best, and if it is not hit, there is nothing to blame, we still have to give appropriate funds for the activity. Daxia said.
Shu Peipei said: "You don't want to give any money for activities, it's best to send a young man to walk around the world with me, and he will pay for the expenses." In the end, whether it works out or not, I won't ask him to promise anything. β
The hero smiled: "You are completely the way of thinking and expression of the Americans, and the Chinese can't stand this." Can you be a little more subtle in the future? β
Shu Peipei smiled: "I want to be subtle, but I'm used to talking like this, and I can't change it." Mr. Xie, the Chinese are reserved, but China has the largest population, and it still engages in family planning that violates human rights? β
Wuyang said: "If China does not carry out family planning, I am afraid that hundreds of millions of people will go to the United States, so that the United States can also taste the taste of overcrowding." β
Daxia said: "This is a matter of national conditions, not for us ordinary people to worry about." Miss Shu, let's get down to business, you write out the agreement, let's discuss and revise it, and let's take a helicopter tomorrow. β
Shu Peipei smiled, "I'm really nosy." However, Mr. Zhang's words are too bad. (To be continued......)
