After distributing food and fresh water to the island’s survivors, Zhang Heng also focused his attention on the salvation of gold.

There is not much time left for them. The Navy has agreed to rejoin at Parrot Island after 2 weeks. Now that the time has passed by more than half, there are still about 5 days left, but in fact it is impossible for the Navy to pinch So accurate, usually come back one or two days in advance.

So the real time left for the Jackdaw to carry gold is only about 3 to 4 days, and we must also consider the problem of leaving after moving the gold, and stagger as far as possible with the returning navy. This also takes time. This calculation does not add In the case of tonight Zhang Heng, they actually only have about 2 days of safe salvage time.

However, there is good news. The Kent, who had stayed outside the port and had nothing to do, was also thinking about salvaging gold. The carpenter on the ship also made a set of salvage tools.

The structure is actually very simple, that is, the claw hook has been improved, and two more hooks have been added. The short hook is used at the front end to form a 2 angle with the previous hook, which increases the stability, so that the box can be hooked from the bottom Of course, even if you have this tool, you still need to go to the sea to hook the hook on the gold box.

Walden originally planned to force the rest of the pirates on the island to force them into the water, but Zhang certainly couldn’t do it. He asked the carpenter Guy on the ship, “How is it, is it difficult?” “

“As far as imitation is concerned, there is actually no difficulty. They have already measured the size. Follow the instructions. There are many claw hooks on the boat. I can deliver ten more sets before sunset.”

“I also picked the salvage people.” Dufferina said on the other side, “The Jackdaw is the most water-soluble, but even the most powerful among them can’t stay underwater for long. The people underneath cannot even swim there. “

“That’s because they were wasting too much energy and oxygen on the way.” Zhang Heng said, “Everyone hugs a rock when diving, so that they can sink directly to the bottom of the sea without any effort, and in the waist Tie up the cable, set a time, and pick up the person at the point, so that the time saved can be used to install the claw hook. “

As for the problem of stress, Zhang Heng also has no good way, and can only be overcome by the divers. Fortunately, the depth of 20 meters is not too heavy a load on the body. There will definitely be adverse reactions, but it should not be. As for the life-giving, of course, the people responsible for salvation must have corresponding rewards to stimulate their enthusiasm.

However, these details were handed over to Billy and Dufferina to discuss. Quartermaster hearing this nodded. He first sent someone to do the test. With the successful delivery of the first box of gold, it also confirmed the feasibility of this method After that, it was perfect and repetitive work. By the 2nd day evening, the Jackdaw had successfully recovered most of the gold.

However, the salvage work was also in trouble. The Spanish treasure ship was quite sturdy. It was sunk after many rounds of shelling, but it was inevitable that the cargo warehouse was also severely shelled, and the boxes of gold It has been moved almost, but the rest are gold bars scattered everywhere.

This part of gold is very troublesome to collect, and the tools made before are not useful. You can only pick them up by human hands. This way, the efficiency is naturally reduced, and the time you can stay underwater is limited, and the number of times is too much. Divers will also be overwhelmed.

Fortunately, on the 2nd day, the surviving body of the pirate on the island also recovered a lot. In order to repay the rescue of the Jackdaw, they not only gave up the ownership of the gold, but also willing to help the Jackdaw salvage for free, but even so On the evening of the 3rd day, everyone worked together and only recovered about 3000 lbs or 200 lbs of gold.

There are 1800 pounds of gold left, either scattered too far, or pressed under the wreckage of the sunken ship, but it is not completely impossible to salvage, but it takes a lot of time.

Zhang Heng had no plans to wait any longer. The battles that the Jackdaw experienced these days were a bit too intensive. Everyone held their breath after escaping from Parrot Island, but they also breathed out after sinking the Kent It was almost the same, and the crew on the ship began to feel tired. At the same time, although they also got a part of gunpowder supplement from the Kent, they were not enough to support the next battle.

So Zhang Heng was not prepared to stay any longer, took Brook and the others and set off for Nassau.

Compared to when they came, they spent almost twice as much time on their way back. In addition to avoiding the other 5 ships, because there were more people and goods on the Jackdaw, but fortunately this way has been threatening but not Dangerous, until the stone walls and fortresses of Nassau were re-seen, the hearts of the people were completely put down.

However, the moment everyone sees the land, their moods are different. For the crew of the Jackdaw, although the process of going out to sea this time was tortuous, the final result was another victory for the Jackdaw. In the end, the captain Zhang Heng also continued his Legendary again. In the nearly desperate situation at that time, the Jackdaw was the only one after another pirate ship that successfully escaped from the siege of the navy. Not only this but also incredible afterwards Completed the headwind turnaround, successively killed Miranda and Kent, recovered most of the gold, and also saved the surviving pirates on Parrot Island.

However, on the other side, they are the survivors of 5 other pirate ships. They went to sea this time but they lost completely. Not only did they get nothing, but their ships were also sunk by the navy, but they died. Compared to their companions, they are lucky and at least survive and return to Nassau.

After landing, Brooke and the other captain hurriedly disembarked. They had a bunch of aftermath to deal with, and they had to recruit new crew members to find a new ship. Then Eric also said goodbye to Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng first sent people to ferry them to ashore, and then began to command the Jackdaw to unload the gold on the ship, although there are more than 1800 pounds of gold sleeping on the bottom of the sea (then should fall into the navy and pirate hunter In their hands), but their harvest at this time is still amazing, especially considering that the other five pirate ships have all given up their ownership.

The harvest of this time alone is enough to prevent the pirates on the ship from washing their hands. Most people cannot even see so much gold in their lifetime. Especially when the Jackdaw unloaded, the entire Nassau became a sensation again.
