Chapter 828: The Arrival of the Archaeological Expert
On this high sea, the Feather Wing stayed for two days, during which Chen Yi did not do nothing, but cleaned up the cultural relics on the sunken ship on the deck little by little, such as porcelain and other cultural relics, after hundreds of years of soaking, the glaze layer on the surface of the object was more or less destroyed.
Once out of the water, it is necessary to go through a number of processes to gradually restore these cultural relics to their original state, Chen Yi carried out the basic cleaning work in the early stage, and then returned to China, but also need to dehydrate and desalinate these cultural relics.
The antiques were cleaned out of the cabin, and then Chen Yi specially sorted out a room and placed the cleaned cultural relics in it.
At the time of the clean-up, some soldiers also took the initiative to ask to learn these clean-up work, so as to be able to help, Chen Yi smiled, naturally he would not refuse, these soldiers have gradually agreed with the work on the ship, from the previous passive to the current initiative, which is something to be happy about.
In his free time during the clean-up process, Chen Yi also accompanied the tamed fish to play, and he also carried out some control over the number of tamed fish, but with the number of fish he tamed now, compared to the vast sea, it is a drop in the bucket, and the sea has a much larger area than the land.
In terms of these sea creatures that he is taming now, even if he encounters a pirate gang, he has the power to fight, not to mention sharks and whales, the combat power of the sailfish is also very strong, and he can sink the ship without knowing it, so for the swordfish, he is not afraid of the comer.
There are too many sharks. will attract the attention of others. But floating beneath the surface of the sea. Sailfish fighting in the sea are also unrestricted.
In the process of continuous taming, the intelligence of these fish schools has also improved significantly, and at the same time, he is also more intimate with Chen Yi, in addition to playing with them, he will continue to send these fish schools out to find the wreck, but until now. In the vicinity of more than ten nautical miles, no wrecks were found.
In the morning, two days after the phone call with Mr. Zheng, Chen Yi received some news from a nearby swordfish who were looking for news, and described the shape of the ships to him fifteen nautical miles away.
In terms of the ability of intermediate animal taming, in the past few days, these fish have understood many things, including distance, including direction, and so on. In their own words, to describe the shape of the ship. It is then translated by the authentication system, and there is no problem with that.
Within fifteen nautical miles of the vicinity, he sent a number of sailfish on patrol in order to keep track of the situation around him, and the speed of the ship was generally between twenty and forty kilometers per hour.
The fastest speed of modern super container ships is only about 50 kilometers per hour, and the fastest speed of sailfish is 190 kilometers per hour, although each individual sailfish is different, the speed is not the same, but the average speed of long-term swimming can also reach more than 100 kilometers, it is the fastest fish in the ocean.
Not only is it powerful, but it is also fast, which is why Sailfish is one of the top ten hegemons in the sea.
Hearing the description of the sailfish and calculating the time, Chen Yi felt that these two ships should be the ships taken by his master and others, fifteen nautical miles, at the speed of an ordinary archaeological ship, I am afraid it will take more than half an hour to arrive.
Of course, these fifteen nautical miles are only a matter of minutes for sailfish.
After more than half an hour, Chen Yi had already seen two small black dots on the sea in the distance, and looked at them with high-precision binoculars, which were the two boats found by the sailfish, he smiled on his face, waited for two days, and finally came.
In the past two days, relying on himself and a few soldiers to clean up, the progress is really slow, there are a lot of items on this ship, and now there are his own masters and people from the archaeological community to come, which is undoubtedly a great help to himself.
When the two ships approached, they could clearly see his master Zheng Lao and some other old men standing on the boat, and at the same time, Chen Yi could also see some surprises on their faces, presumably it was his huge cruise ship that shocked them.
"Lao Zheng, your apprentice's boat is really huge enough, isn't it a bit of a waste to use such a boat to salvage." One of the archaeologists looked at this luxury cruise ship and said with emotion.
Zheng Lao smiled slightly, "It depends on how you understand, those of you who often carry out archaeological work in various places should also have been to the sea and know the taste of the sea, on an ordinary ship, staying for a long time, the spirit will definitely produce great pressure, but on this cruise ship, there will be no such problems, which undoubtedly increases the time at sea, and can also increase the chance of finding shipwrecks." ”
"I, a little apprentice, is an emotional person who will take into account the feelings of others, unlike those black-hearted bosses, not to mention, this cruise ship can also be used as a leisure and vacation place for their company staff in addition to salvage, so it is not a waste, just make the best use of it.
"I just said one sentence, you use a bunch of words to refute me, you apprentice, you can be regarded as finding a good master." Hearing Elder Zheng say a long paragraph, the archaeological expert smiled bitterly.
Zheng Lao waved his hand, "Haha, you said the opposite, it should be me, the master, who has found a good apprentice." ”
After the two ships slowly approached the cruise ship, some facilities were passed, and the archaeologists on the two ships boarded the cruise ship one by one, and everyone was amazed by the large and luxurious nature of the cruise ship, and their archaeological ship was not small, but looking at their ship on the luxury cruise ship, it was very small.
Under the introduction of Zheng Lao, Chen Yi got to know these archaeological experts one by one, in addition to some experts, there were also some students from the Department of Archaeology, who seemed to want to take advantage of this opportunity to learn some archaeological experience.
"Haha, Third Senior Brother, we meet again, you really see the head and the end of the dragon." When one of the middle-aged people got on the boat, Chen Yi smiled excitedly and hugged him.
This is his third senior brother who works in the archaeological field, Ma Dongquan, who has only seen two or three faces before, and the rest of the time, the dragon has not seen the end.
"Little junior brother, we meet again." Ma Dongquan smiled slightly, hugged Chen Yi, his heart was full of emotion, this little junior brother's achievements are getting bigger and bigger, only a year or two, now, he has to come over to help his little junior brother, these things have verified the accuracy of a sentence, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the poor young man.
Chen Yi smiled, he knew that his senior brother's character was taciturn, but he had a deep knowledge in archaeology, and he was also in the forefront among some experts who came this time.
In addition to some archaeological experts, there were also two old men who knew each other well and came here and greeted Chen Yi one by one.
After all the archaeologists on the ship came up, several archaeological experts couldn't help but let Chen Yi take them to watch the shipwreck.
Hearing the request of these archaeological experts, Chen Yi was too late to be happy, how could he refuse, and then took them to the top deck, which was covered with a shade cloth at this time, blocking the sunlight from the outside.
Seeing this layer of sunshade cloth, several archaeologists nodded with a smile, and then, several crew members slowly removed the sunshade cloth, revealing the Qing Dynasty shipwreck with water traces inside.
Seeing the size of this shipwreck, these archaeological experts all showed a look of shock on their faces, before they were still doubting whether Chen Yi had the ability to salvage the entire ship like this, but now, a nearly complete shipwreck was placed in front of them.
Several archaeological experts couldn't wait to lightly step on the shipwreck, constantly watching some things on the ship, with a deep excitement on their faces, "Chen Xiaoyou, let's start cleaning up now." ”
"Elder Xu, in terms of archaeology, you are seniors, so naturally act according to you." Chen Yi smiled and nodded, wishing that these people would start cleaning up now.
After listening to Chen Yi's words, Xu Lao began to assign personnel to the archaeologists who came this time, some specially entered the cabin to take out items, some specially picked up, and some specially cleaned up below, which can be said to be orderly.
When Chen Yi also wanted to go up to help, he was pulled over by Zheng Lao, "Master, do you have anything to do?" He couldn't help but ask, confused.
"There are some things I want to explain to you, this time, the clean-up work is completely helpful, and these archaeological experts will not charge any remuneration, but they just want some honor."
"After all, this is the first shipwreck salvaged in China as a whole, which can be said to have broken the record of the salvage industry in China, of course, after these cultural relics are cleaned up, they also need to be studied for a period of time." Zheng Lao said to Chen Yi with a smile.
Chen Yi nodded without hesitation, "Master, thank you for being old, I don't care about these honors yet, and the press conference after that will explain that this salvage has the participation of these archaeological experts, you can do it." ”
"Okay, do as you say, between our master and apprentice, what are you polite, okay, let's go and help clean it up, and it can also allow you to increase some experience in shipwreck archaeology." After speaking, Zheng Lao took Chen Yi to the top deck to help clean up the wreck.
After continuous cleaning, the number of items contained on this Qing Dynasty shipwreck has shocked some archaeologists.
All the archaeologists worked together, and it took nearly five days to clean up all the items on the wreck, and the types and quantities of items cleaned up were very shocking. (To be continued......)
