Section 255 Original salvage

You are here: > > >

Yu Sibao was the youngest on the ship, only 17 years old, a full 6 years younger than his cousin Yu Chushui.

At the age of 15, Yu Sibao, who followed his father out to sea to fish, is extremely talented, and no one can match him in diving.

Today, everyone is sailing out to sea as usual. The small fishing village where Yu's family lives is off the coast of Putian, about 20 kilometers by sea from Cormorant Island. The herring cast its nets all the way to catch fish, and before you knew it, it was near Cormorant Island. Seeing that it was not too early to see the sky, Yu Chengde ordered to go to the old place to dock to avoid the wind, and prepared to wait for the return voyage early tomorrow morning.

After the boat stopped in a small bay where the group often sheltered from the wind, the fishermen continued their hard work: after the fresh fish was caught on board, the fishermen had to process the harvest whenever and wherever they could. Otherwise, in the south with an average high temperature of more than 20 degrees, raw fish will soon deteriorate.

That's the problem: fishermen who go out to sea don't have chilled cars and downwind couriers, and they don't have the ability to deliver fresh fish to the old man's table. These fish must undergo primary processing, such as air-drying and salting, before they can be preserved.

......

Different environments create different races.

At the same time, fishermen from Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Germany were working in the icy North Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and around Iceland. Fatty Atlantic salmon and Atlantic herring are produced in the cold seas, and the North Sea region, where the sun does not shine for half the year, is naturally a big refrigerator – which is why Nordic people can eat chilled salmon at home.

This natural chilling method is not possible in temperate regions. Therefore, the Han people living in East Asia, even the wealthy gentry in the coastal cities, were eventually forced to develop the habit of eating freshwater fish. The order of choice is that people would rather eat spiny freshwater fish than salted fish.

This embarrassing situation continued into later generations. Even after the invention of the refrigerator, the contradiction remained, but it shifted - the reason for not eating sea fish became the price.

In addition to the rich people being able to enjoy the changes in the dietary structure brought about by scientific and technological progress, the majority of the best people can still only eat chopped pepper fish heads and freshwater fish boiled by various thick seasonings...... Salmon sashimi worth hundreds of yuan a plate is not something that the poor can afford.

......

After mooring the boat, the fishermen on the herring began to pickle the salted fish in the afterglow of the setting sun. All caught fish are disemboweled, entrailed, and then smeared with salt grains.

There is a shortage of salt in Fujian, and what they are using now in Chengde is a little private salt secretly boiled in an iron pot in the village. Even so, the amount of salt is not enough, so some of the fish have to be hung on ropes to make air-dried fish.

Whenever this happens, Yu Sibao will take off into a naked strip and plunge headlong into the bottom of the sea to play.

The reef coast near Cormorant Island has crystal clear waters. And today, when Yu Sibao plunged into the bottom of the sea, he vaguely saw a black shadow underwater. After holding his breath and diving diagonally for more than ten meters, Yu Sibao saw a lucky boat that had fallen to the bottom of the sea.

More than 2 months was not enough time for the boat to be covered with sea sand, so Sibao recognized it as a great fortune boat at a glance.

After turning around and getting out of the water, Sibao took a few deep breaths and then plunged headlong into the sea. This time he dived vertically above the ship, so there was plenty of time, and it didn't take long for him to get into the stern of the ship.

There are not many corpses in the stern, only one human corpse that has been ** excessive, revealing a lot of white bones and fish tooth marks, floating on the roof of the cabin.

...... At the time of the battle, almost everyone was on deck, so when the ship sank, the living swam away, and the dead had already been swept away by the current. The one in the stern had been pierced by a heavy machine gun bullet a long time ago.

Yu Sibao, a small fisherman in the 17th century, was naturally not afraid of corpses. In this era, from the poor people to the wealthy gentry, all those who lived to adulthood had countless times more experience with all kinds of dead people than later generations.

Therefore, after Yu Sibao entered the cabin, he quickly focused his attention on the corner of the cabin where it was dumped...... on a slightly metallic object.

The teenager's thinking is very simple: everything that is metal is useful. So when he scooped up the object, he didn't have time to look closely, so he turned around and swam out of the cabin, which was soon muddy with mud and sand, and swam all the way to the surface.

Things got out of hand, because the first thing Yu Sibao threw on the bow of the boat was a bronze Buddha.

After being washed away by the sea water on the surface of the sediment, this 6-inch-high Xuande bronze Sakyamuni lotus statue suddenly flashed with golden brilliance in the sunset, and at the same time ignited the atmosphere of a group of ** silk fishermen on the bow of the boat - everyone knows that everyone is going to be transferred now, and it is impossible to have this property on the sunken ship.

So, Sibao soon dived into the sea again under the eyes of everyone's expectation.

After the second ascent, Sibao brought an inkstone, a machete, and a waist tag on the corpse. Although the people on the boat were illiterate, and no one recognized the Zheng family's tokens, the machete and inkstone must be worth a few taels of silver, so everyone's mood became more and more high.

The last expedition of the Four Treasures before dark brought back the silver ingots and military thorns.

Originally, when he was fumbling around in the cabin where the mud and sand were floating and the darkness could not see, he only got the ingots of silver. However, when he swam out of the cabin to ascend, he found a dagger stuck in a crack in the reef outside the ship, so he took the sheep by the hand and brought the general thorn up.

After getting the black silver, Yu Chengde hurriedly beckoned his son to wipe himself and get dressed, and then brought the boiled ginger tea with his own hands.

Tea is the worst bitter tea, and ginger is the wild ginger in the field at the edge of the village. When Yu Sibao took a few sips of tea, another piece of news came out of his mouth that made everyone excited: there was a large overturned cabinet in the stern of the lucky boat, and he had already touched the position of the lock.

......

Early the next morning, the Herring stopped fishing, but slowly moved the ship above the wreck and anchored it. Soon after, Yu Sibao, who was wearing a crotch cloth and a thick cloth belt around his waist, began to enter the water.

Today's Yu Sibao is prepared. Not only could he quickly sink down the anchor chain this time, but he also had a wrought iron cone tied to the cloth belt around his waist to pick the lock.

However, there are many good things, and more than 2 months cannot make the lucky ship made of good wood become rotten wood. Therefore, when Yu Sibao touched the cabin and picked the lock with a wrought iron cone, the door lock made of fine copper was naturally immovable.

Under the effect of buoyancy and limited time at the same time, Yu Sibao had to pick the lock 6 times in one morning, but in the end he still found nothing...... Not only did he not pry open the cabinet door, but even the wrought iron cone was bent by prying.

After eating at noon, Yu Chengde decisively changed his thinking according to his son's description. He first let Yu Sibao go into the water lightly, and then began to carefully stroke the side seams along the toppled cabinet.
