Chapter 257: Chartering a Boat to Salvage Treasure

Speaking of which, Nemo thought about it and agreed.

He really didn't believe that Zhu Yu could get the treasure.

After signing the agreement, Zhu Yu immediately called Ran Jie and a few people to come over and board the ship, and at the same time brought the things he was carrying to the ship.

Nemo accepted the deposit, listened to Zhu Yu's arrangement with peace of mind, and drove the boat to the designated position.

"The water here is not deep, but only a few tens of meters, why not go into the water and salvage it manually?"

Not only Nemo has this question, but even Ran Jie and several others also have this question.

Zhu Yu didn't explain it to them, but the truth was actually very simple.

Beneath the thick layer of sediment under the water, there are hundreds of thousands of gold coins scattered across an area the size of nearly half a football field!

How long will it take to salvage these gold coins by hand?

And more importantly, dozens of meters underwater, just with Zhu Yu and a few rookies in diving, not to mention the tiredness of salvage, it is easy to be in danger.

How convenient it is to use a salvage boat!

The hair dryer-like equipment blew away the thick sand on the bottom of the sea, and then sucked up those gold coins, all Zhu Yu had to do was sort them out.

"Ran Jie, you go to the operation room and learn the operation of those equipment; Qin Fei and Da Long, the two of you follow the workers to collect those treasures. ”

Zhu Yu himself was in the control room, directing the area where the ship would start construction.

Because it was only rented for one day, Zhu Yu immediately asked Nemo to bring people to work.

Nemo took the money, and his professional ethics were still good, and immediately instructed the workers on the ship to start turning on the radar, putting down the equipment, starting the underwater robot, with a camera, and starting to blow sand and dig.

The thick sand of the ocean floor was blown open, but nothing was seen below.

Nemo saw the image coming back from the camera and said to Zhu Yu:

"There are a large number of treasure hunters here who have dived and searched, but they have not found anything, Mr. Zhu, it is very likely that you will dig here for a day and will not be able to dig anything."

Zhu Yu was not moved at all. He has dived and inspected this piece of the seabed several times, and the results obtained are very clear, just this area, under the sea sand of nearly one meter, there are at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins!

Of course, this is a very large amount of work, otherwise Zhu Yu would not have been able to pay 500,000 US dollars directly!

"Half a meter of sea sand has already been blown, do you want to continue?" The operator asked.

"Go on." Before Nemo could answer, Zhu Yu opened his mouth, "Blow it down." ”

The operator saw that Nemo did not object, and continued the operation.

Not long after, the good news came: the fragments of the wooden crate were found in the blown sand!

Nemo was shocked!

What shocked him even more was that after the black wooden box fragments under the water were blown out, further down, gold coins visible to the naked eye appeared in front of the camera!

Although these gold coins have been at the bottom of the sea for so long, some of them have been cemented together by the materials in the sea, but many of them still shimmer with golden light!

"Sure enough, there is a treasure!" Nemo suddenly had a look of shock and jealousy!

I've been here for so long, and I haven't found a single gold coin - this Huaxia kid has only been here for half a month, and he has found a treasure!

Maybe that's all there is to it?

Nemo comforted himself, a box of gold coins is hundreds, this Huaxia kid should have found such a box of gold coins, just enough to pay for his charter.

After these gold coins are absorbed, the next job is simple, Zhu Yu only needs to be responsible for pointing in a general direction, and the radar on the rest of the ship can scan it.

More and more wooden boxes containing gold coins were discovered, and more and more gold coins were sucked up.

Qin Fei and Cao Dalong, who worked on the other side of the recovery pod, supervised the workers to sort the gold coins and pack them into boxes. The packing boxes were brought on the ship, and Zhu Yu simply let people buy them, and Nemo did not refuse.

I don't need it anyway.

Boxes after boxes - there were more and more chests of gold coins in the boat, and the workers were excited at first, after all, they were professional salvage workers, how could they not be excited to see these treasures?

But then, more were salvaged, and the gold coins changed from a few boxes to a dozen or dozens of boxes, and they slowly became numb.

Just like the workers in the banknote printing factory, these gold coins can't fit in their pockets anyway, so what's the difference between them and sand and stones?

The salvage boat worked until late at night.

Cao Dalong came over and quietly reported to Zhu Yu:

"Boss, 210,000 3,625 gold coins have been salvaged, packed in seventy-one boxesβ€”these gold coins are generally smaller, and weigh a little lighter, almost five grams each."

Ordinary gold coins weigh about eight to ten grams, some more than twelve grams, some more than five grams, but even less down.

This coin is on the small side, but it is better than the quantity.

"Okay, take turns eating first, and then watch out."

Nemo had already gone to rest, and Zhu Yu gave bonuses to both the people who operated the equipment and the workers, so these people continued to work.

Zhu Yu had these boxes transported to the shore overnight through the lifeboats carried on the salvage boat, he guarded here, Ran Jie guarded there, and Qin Fei and Cao Dalong transported them back and forth.

It wasn't shipped until dawn.

What puzzled Ran Jie and the others was that after the box containing the gold coins was transported here, it finally disappeared, and they didn't know where it was transported by Zhu Yu.

But they don't ask. There are too many mysterious things on the boss, so it's better not to ask.

Even Cao Dalong, who was the most curious, didn't speak.

Zhu Yu naturally transferred the boxes containing the gold coins to the space.

He originally planned that if Ran Jie and them asked, he would directly say that he had already called someone over and transported them away overnight, but they didn't ask, and they didn't explain.

After returning to the boat and having a simple breakfast, Zhu Yu said to Ran Jie and the others:

"Let's work hard, each with a pistol. Today is the most critical day. As long as you stick to it today, you can catch up tomorrow and give you a bonus! ”

Ran Jie and the three of them also followed Zhu Yu to absorb energy, plus they were young and strong, so staying up all night was not a matter at all.

Nemo got up early and watched Zhu Yu arrange for his workers to work. The workers were still elated.

He grabbed a person and asked, only to know that Zhu Yu gave a bonus of 1,000 US dollars to each overtime worker yesterday!

Although a thousand dollars is not much for Nemo, for a worker, it is natural to be happy to get so much money for an extra night shift!

So today, one by one is like a chicken blood, full of energy!

Even the female operator of the underwater robot couldn't stop winking at Zhu Yu.

It's just that Zhu Yu has no sexual interest in women of this style, and his current interest is in those gold coins.

Nemo arrives at the recovery pod and is surprised to find that the chests containing the gold are gone!

He immediately asked the workers, and they said they had all been shipped last night!

Nemo didn't expect Zhu Yu to move so fast!

It's not that he didn't have selfish thoughts about being a modern pirate or something.

However, when he saw Qin Fei and Cao Dalong intentionally or unintentionally exposing the pistols on their waists, Nemo gave up this thought.

Don't pirates didn't get it, they were killed themselves, it would be worth the loss.

However, he didn't want Zhu Yu to take away the treasure so smoothly, so he couldn't help but make a phone call.

Zhu Yu's ears are so sharp, he didn't get out of Zhu Yu's hearing range when he called.

Zhu Yu didn't expect that this old boy was not honest.

However, he was busy salvaging for the time being, so Zhu Yu didn't care about him. More on that later!

The next thing to salvage was not only gold coins, but also irregular gold and silver nuggets that were smelted, and some gems and the like.

Fortunately, these things are packed in boxes. After so many years, although the box is broken, the thing has basically not come out of that range.

So it's relatively simple to salvage.

The salvage was carried out until noon, and Zhu Yu announced that the salvage was over!

More than fifty chests of treasure were salvaged today!

Zhu Yu first asked Ran Jie to take someone to transport the box down, then paid the rest of the money to Nemo, and finally gave each worker a bonus of 1,000 US dollars, and then got off the ship.

As soon as the boat in which Zhu Yu was riding had left, Nemo immediately shouted to the operator:

"Quick! Keep searching nearby! Let's see if there's any gold left! I'm sure there must be gold coins that haven't been stolen! ”

Zhu Yu's excavation work stopped suddenly, so Nemo felt that Zhu Yu must have felt that the digging was almost done. Or maybe the rest of the area isn't detected.

But the ship is its own!

Nemo felt that there was definitely no treasure in the nearby sea that had not been poached!

Even if you only dig up one box, it is enough to get rid of your debts and hunt for treasure freely!

However, the radar scanned for half a day, and apart from scattered fragments of metal, there were no large metal reactions at all!

Nemo was desperately tearing at his hair, and said frantically:

"It can't be! That's impossible! He didn't have any precise equipment at all, how could he know the range of gold coins so accurately? It can't be ......"

This is equivalent to hunting in the dark jungle, bringing a shotgun with night vision sights, and the other party is basically unarmed, but in the end the other party hits the prey, and he finds nothing!

It's not scientific!

Zhu Yu didn't care about Nemo's unscience, he took the box back to the place where the tent was stationed, and set up a big tent to store the box, and he looked at the box in the tent himself, letting Ran Jie and the three of them rest.

Naturally, it was impossible for the three of Ran Jie to let Zhu Yu guard so many things alone, they stayed one and Zhu Yu to guard them all the time - Zhu Yu said that someone would come over at night to transport these things away.

When the people in the village and the nearby treasure hunters saw Zhu Yu and the others pulling back so many boxes, they naturally knew that this might be the treasure, so it became a sensation!

The treasure that so many people didn't find was found by Zhu Yu, how could this not be a sensation?

The local authorities immediately arrived on the island.

Verification and collection of taxes.

Zhu Yu didn't resist either, and paid the tax in a proper manner. The locals are also very happy about this, pay the tax, and they don't care about the rest.

Just when Ran Jie and the others began to worry about the safety of so many treasures, that night, the box was quietly "transported" away by Zhu Yu.

"Boss, aren't we leaving?" The next morning, seeing that the box was no longer there, Ran Jie and the others were relieved, and at breakfast, Ran Jie asked.

"There's one more important thing that hasn't been dug up. When it is dug up, let's go. ”

Zhu Yu replied.

Last night, Ran Jie and the others slept, but Zhu Yu didn't sleep, in the second half of the night, he didn't let Ran Jie and them keep vigil, but waited by himself, until there was no one nearby, and then put away the gold coin boxes.

Now that he has nothing to do, Zhu Yu wants to make up for sleep.

After sleeping for a long time, in the afternoon, Zhu Yu took Ran Jie and others to the north of the island, and then waved a shovel and began to dig.

Someone from the village came to ask, and Zhu Yu said that he felt that there was something down here.

Some people didn't believe it, some people believed it, and then they dug it up not far from Zhu Yu's vicinity.

If it's a large area of treasure, you might be able to dig up it nearby and drink some soup along with it.

Cao Dalong wanted to go over to stop it, but Zhu Yu didn't let him, and the four of them dug a pit together.

Many people are watching the excitement outside, and some people are still holding their mobile phones to take pictures, doing live broadcasts.

Zhu Yu didn't care about them, the sand was easy to dig, and when they dug to a depth of more than two meters, Zhu Yu's shovel hit a hard object.

Ran Jie and the others immediately followed Zhu Yu to dig out the hard object.

It is a small box with a length, width and height of no more than thirty centimeters.

The box is made of stone, but it is very beautifully made, with a simple pattern on the front and sides.

As soon as he dug up the box, Zhu Yu immediately hugged the box and went to the ground, and then said to Ran Jie:

"Flatten the pit."

The people nearby immediately asked:

"What's in there? Open it up and take a look! ”

"That's it! What could be in this? ”

The sharp-eyed man saw that it was a stone chest and immediately understood why it had not been found by the treasure hunters.

Regarding these people's requests, Zhu Yu pretended not to hear.

The contents of this box were too contrary to common sense, so Zhu Yu didn't plan to take them out.

He's going to go back and study it.

Filling the pit was much faster than digging the soil, and soon, the pit was filled, and Zhu Yu left the North Island beach under the escort of Ran Jie and others and walked to the tent.

Halfway through, someone stopped Zhu Yu to see what he was holding, but Cao Dalong drove him away.

This is the time when it is necessary to show force.

Back in the tent, Zhu Yu put the box into his backpack, and then said to Ran Jie:

"Now pack up your things, let's go!"

At this time, there were no ships leaving the island at all.

However, this was not difficult for Zhu Yu, he directly found the locals in the village, spent a thousand dollars, hired them to fish in a motor boat, and left the island.

Although this ship is not a distant-water fishing vessel, it has no problem traveling dozens of nautical miles.

An hour after Zhu Yu and their departure, they were moved by those treasure hunters.

They didn't expect Zhu Yu to leave in a hurry after they dug up their things.

After all, there is no passenger ship now, and in their concept, even if Zhu Yu and they leave, it will be tomorrow.

Originally, some people planned to bring things to visit Zhu Yu and them, but when they arrived, they found that the tent was there, and there was no one left!

Solidifying thinking hurts people!

And Nemo also didn't notice Zhu Yu and they left.

He is also searching the nearby waters for treasure.

After Zhu Yu and the others fished something earlier, Nemo called one of his "acquaintances" and told him the news.

The man took the boat and waited nearby.

After all, there are more than a hundred boxes of things, and the boat will definitely not be able to transport them.

Passenger ships are even more of a no-brainer.

So his goal is the big ship.

Waiting, just wait for Zhu Yu and them to leave, this person has not waited for the arrival of the big ship.
