Half a month after docking, Chen Yi said hello to his master and continued to set sail towards the Strait of Malacca.

For this Ming Dynasty shipwreck, Chen Yi didn't know anything except the location and its lowest value, all he could do was to investigate it after he arrived.

On the one hand, he continued to salvage the shipwreck, on the other hand, he wanted to find the whereabouts of the last Flower God Cup, without this last Flower God Cup, his eleven Flower God Cups could not be regarded as a set at all, and they could not become the object of attention.

The Strait of Malacca is still farther away than the location of the shipwreck they had salvaged before, so it took longer to travel on the road.

Before going to sea this time, Chen Yi specially purchased a helicopter to prevent a sudden incident at sea, so that he could have greater maneuverability, and as for the people who flew the helicopter, among the 200 soldiers, at least more than 10 people could fly it.

Leaving Haijin Port, they slowly sailed towards Malacca, Chen Yi's arrival undoubtedly made some sea creatures very happy, they liked to stay with Chen Yi very much.

Especially when Chen Yi gave them some comfortable feelings, it made them feel wonderful, and also let them know the great changes in themselves.

The Strait of Malacca is a strait located between the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, with a total length of more than 1,000 kilometers, the widest point is 370 meters, and the narrowest point is only 37 meters, which is an international waterway connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean.

With an average of more than 200 ships passing through the Guò Strait every day and more than 80,000 per year, it is one of the busiest straits in the world.

In the 7th to 15th centuries AD. Chinese. Ships of the maritime trade between India and Arab countries. They all have to pass through the Strait of Malacca, and because there are many reefs near the Strait of Malacca, there are also some ships stranded or sunk in and out of this strait.

"Boss, piracy has been rampant in the Strait of Malacca recently, we need to prepare in advance." Knowing Chen Yi's destination here, Sun Hongzhi also reminded him of this. The Strait of Malacca has been very busy with shipping since ancient times, and it is common sense to go to this place to find shipwrecks, but this area is too complicated, and he can't change his boss's decision, and he can only remind him slightly.

"Brother Sun, you're right, tell the patrol personnel to be smart, our luxury cruise ship. The chances of being targeted by pirates are high, but salvaging a shipwreck is a risky affair. If you want to be safe, you have to sit at home. ”

Chen Yi nodded, he was also very clear about the situation in this sea area, piracy was very rampant nearby, because the Strait of Malacca is one of the busiest waterways in the world, in the last century, it was a strait full of pirates, specializing in robbing merchant ships.

Today, in the 21st century, piracy has not disappeared and is becoming more rampant, because of the increase in the number of cargo ships in the strait, the limited naval strength of the three small countries near the strait, and the fact that they are at the junction of the three countries, there are some problems in international cooperation in combating piracy.

In the straits under the jurisdiction of the three countries, there are pirates constantly infested, not to mention the nearby high seas, these pirates are relying on the complicated situation here, cargo ships do not dare to sail at full speed, and carry out large-scale robbery activities, and the pirates that occur here every year account for one-third of the world's piracy incidents.

It's just that Chen Yi felt that if those pirates wanted to attack him, they should really put on a pillar of incense and ask for more blessings.

In the case of the sea creatures he is now tame, the combat power is very strong, and it can completely guarantee their safety and defeat the invading pirates.

Of course, Chen Yi would not have any carelessness, on the one hand, he notified the sailfish to patrol more than ten nautical miles near the ship, and on the other hand, asked the crew on board to pay attention to observation, and then continued to go towards the waters near Malacca.

During these days at sea, in addition to taming some swordfish, he also tamed a fish that was not much different from the swordfish, this fish was called the swordfish, and it had the same sword-like upper jaw as the sailfish, but the shape of their upper jaws was different.

At first, when he saw these fish, he was a little surprised, thinking that these swordfish were bigger than ordinary sailfish, and when they were identified, he found that these were actually swordfish, and the length of swordfish is generally three or four meters, which is equivalent to the largest swordfish.

Therefore, the combat power of these swordfish, compared with the swordfish, although it is not much different, but their speed is not as fast as the swordfish, so in terms of their comprehensive combat effectiveness, the swordfish is not as good as the swordfish, but it is also a fish with strong attack power in the ocean.

Among the top ten overlords of the ocean, there is a place for the swordfish, which shows how strong the swordfish is, with these two kinds of fish, plus other such as sharks, dolphins, whales, etc., I believe that the combat team formed by the formation can definitely make any creature fearful.

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Sun Hongzhi nodded, their luxury cruise ship will indeed attract the attention of pirates, because generally on luxury cruise ships, there are many rich people, and the money obtained is much more than that of ordinary merchant ships, of course, the difficulty of attacking cruise ships is also a bit great.

With the ability of their cruise ships and the large number of soldiers on board, if the pirates do not have heavy weapons, they are not their opponents at all, and if they have heavy weapons, then their situation is somewhat dangerous.

As time passed, they got closer and closer to the Strait of Malacca, and the patrol officers on the ship also became more serious, constantly using binoculars to look at the situation in the nearby waters in case an unknown ship approached the cruise ship.

And Chen Yi was also in a position of about ten nautical miles around the cruise ship, and arranged sailfish for reconnaissance, believing that if there were really pirates, these sailfish would come to inform him.

Along the way, he also continued to use treasure hunting and identification techniques, and let some fish search for shipwrecks, and also found two shipwrecks in some high seas, one of which was from the Qing Dynasty and the other was from the Ming Dynasty, and the value of the two ships reached more than 50 million.

Chen Yi also recorded the location of these two ships, ready to salvage them in the follow-up, and now, it is better to salvage the Ming Dynasty shipwreck worth more than 100 million yuan first, after all, what he is doing at sea is not a one-shot business, but a long-term last.

Remembering the location of these wrecks, these people will be able to salvage even without his leadership.

It's just that in the sea area he passed along the way, Chen Yi didn't find the whereabouts of the August Osmanthus Cup, even if it was a shipwreck in the Qing Dynasty, there was no zài, which made him sigh, it seems that the search for the August Osmanthus Cup is a long-term thing.

Soon, it arrived at the high seas near Malacca, although it had not yet reached the location of the Ming Dynasty shipwreck, but under Chen Yi's order, the entire cruise ship began to get busy, conducting seabed exploration, and once any suspected sunken object was found, an underwater machine would be dispatched to check it.

Chen Yi, on the other hand, was using a combination of skills to identify the situation on the seabed, while sending some schools of fish to search.

Although he knows the location of the shipwreck of the Ming Dynasty, it does not mean that there is only one shipwreck in this area of the high seas, and there may be other shipwrecks buried here.

It's just a pity that when he was about to arrive at the position marked by the system, Chen Yi did not find other ships, according to the news from the sailfish, in the position ahead, there is a shipwreck, which should be the Ming Dynasty shipwreck that the system said.

When he was close to two hundred meters, Chen Yi carried out an appraisal, and soon, the appraisal results showed that the highest value was a blue and white porcelain from an official kiln in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, with a value of between one million and five million, according to his estimates, it could almost reach about three million, and if it was intact, the value would definitely reach 10 million.

The value of this ship is also systematically identified as a priceless treasure, more than 100 million yuan, but this ship is not a merchant ship of the Ming Dynasty, but a Portuguese ship, which was sunk during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

Chen Yi has also studied the history of the Ming Dynasty, in the early and middle Ming Dynasty, basically there is a sea ban zài, some smuggling merchants, but also only secretly shipped porcelain to Southeast Asian countries, at the beginning of the introduction of Chinese porcelain to Europe and the United States, this kind of porcelain made the whole of Europe fall for it, few people really use porcelain, but as a symbol of wealth and status collection.

After the first Portuguese arrived in Southeast Asia, they began to buy a small amount of Chinese porcelain through indirect trade in the region, and the Portuguese king later ordered that one-third of the goods carried by all merchant ships returning from the East must be porcelain, and then the Portuguese began to buy a large number of Chinese porcelain, and even went to China to buy it in mainland China.

In the 16th century alone, more than 2 million pieces of porcelain were shipped to Europe by Portugal and Spain, and the Strait of Malacca was the important passage for them to return to the country.

On this merchant ship, in addition to porcelain, Chen Yi also found a large number of jewelry and gold bars, as well as copper coins and medicinal materials, etc., which can be said to be of many types, especially all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, which shocked him.

There is no real identification of all the items, only the whole ship, and only an approximate figure, as for the most valuable species on this ship, it is not porcelain, but gold, silver and jewelry.

It seems that this ship was not just a simple merchant ship, but probably a ship that transported the wealth plundered in the colonies.

Chen Yi didn't know why the Portuguese didn't come to salvage, he just knew that he should have picked up the treasure this time, and the total value of this ship was definitely more than 100 million yuan.

After the identification, Chen Yizai also asked the cruise ship to change some directions, and soon this suspected sunken thing appeared on the equipment, and he did not hesitate, and directly asked people to send underwater aircraft to explore.

After the underwater machine qì people went down, the picture transmitted by the high-definition camera made the entire equipment room burst into cheers again, because they once again found a wreck, and this wreck was even bigger than the one in the Qing Dynasty.

In less than a month, two shipwrecks were discovered, and the rewards of this exploration at sea are very rich. (To be continued......)
