Chapter 301 Unusual Stone
Comrades who have already had experience in salvaging a sunken ship, looking at the sunken ship that has been cleaned up, are also curious about what awaits them inside the sunken ship.Salvaging sunken ships is the most exciting and most anticipated moment.

All the previous hard work was for the moment when entering the cabin to pick up treasures. If the cabin is empty, it means that all the hard work will be in vain.Since it is a salvage shipwreck, who doesn't want to find all kinds of valuable treasures on the sunken ship?

Although he knew more about the sunken ship than other comrades in arms, Zhuang Haiyang was the first to enter the ship.The other comrades in charge of the search entered the cabin one by one after seeing Zhuang Haiyang waving, and began to search for the relics in the cabin.

Under the illumination of the diving lights, some comrades soon saw a pile of stones scattered in the cabin.Seeing these stones, many comrades-in-arms were full of joy.But after lifting it, they found that the stone was really a stone, not the precious metal they imagined.

This discovery made the comrades feel cold in their hearts for a moment: "This ship will not only transport a pile of stones, will it?"

It is known that some empty ships in ancient times would put some ballast stones in the cabin when returning to the voyage.This kind of stone is no different from ordinary stones, so naturally it has no value at all.But these comrades all saw Zhuang Haiyang's hand gesture.

"Is there anything special about these stones?"

Seeing Zhuang Haiyang's gesture of 'move the stone away', although many comrades didn't quite understand, they still stepped forward one after another and left the cabin holding these stones that had been soaked in seawater for many years and most of them were covered with algae.

After putting it into the carrying basket, it was returned to the cabin for carrying.When the first basket of stones was full, Zhuang Haiyang commanded another comrade-in-arms and began to float up to notify the upper body to lift.And these comrades are still curious about what the stone is.

If it was really a ballast stone, Zhuang Haiyang should know about it!

In fact, the comrades waiting on the boat saw that the first basket of treasures that had been hoisted turned out to be a pile of lumps of stones, and they were puzzled and said, "It's not precious metals, it seems to be stones. It's real stones. What do you do to salvage stones?" "

Wang Yanming, who was resting, heard other people's comments and quickly said: "Okay! Since the ocean brought it up, there must be a reason. First move the stones into the cabin, and then get the empty baskets ready to go down."

Under Wang Yanming's urging, these comrades could only watch baskets of stones being salvaged out of the water with full of curiosity.After waiting for the third group to change water, I finally saw the really valuable good things, a lot of gold, silver and treasures.

"These are the good things! With these good things, it shouldn't be considered empty this time!"

What the stone is, the comrades-in-arms are not yet clear.But the precious metals and treasures in front of them, they can still recognize at a glance, these things are all valuable.Picking up these things, the comrades-in-arms are full of joy.

After spending nearly two hours, he finally searched for all the valuables on the sunken ship, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, Zhuang Haiyang ordered his comrades to backfill the sand and re-bury the sunken ship that had been dug out with great difficulty on the seabed.

Before boarding the ship, Zhuang Haiyang asked his comrades who had worked hard for a long time to board the ship first, and made the last cruise by himself.After confirming that there was no problem, he returned to the salvage ship, while the other comrades had already changed their clothes and began to rest.

"Ocean, you're back! How's it going?"

"Nothing unusual! However, the brothers who are in charge of guarding at night still need to cheer up. At this point, you can rest for a while after supper. Tomorrow's work will continue as usual. Are you all okay?"

"No problem! Compared with the sunken ship salvaged for the first time, the tonnage of this ship does not seem to be large!"

"Hmm! If I'm not mistaken, it should have been around 300 years since this ship sank. This is a cargo ship from the Qing Dynasty. You can actually see some clues from the porcelain salvaged from it."

"The shipwreck of the Qing Dynasty doesn't seem to be that long ago! By the way, is that pile of stones a treasure?"

As some comrades asked about the previous curiosity, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "I thought it was ballast stones, right? In fact, when I saw those stones just now, I thought the same as you. It's just that I see them more clearly than you. Be careful, wait a moment!"

After a little trickery, Zhuang Haiyang returned to the captain's cabin and changed the tights he was wearing.From the pile of stones in the utility room, Zhuang Haiyang seemed to pick one at random, and carried it to the deck.

Facing the comrades following behind, Zhuang Haiyang immediately said: "Bring over the high-pressure water gun! You will know later that the value of these stones may be the most valuable on this ship. Of course, whether it is worth it or not, I'm afraid Gamble on luck too!"

"Wait! Ocean, I seem to know what this stone is? Am I right?"

When one of his comrades suddenly realized what the stone was, Zhuang Haiyang also nodded with a smile and said, "That's right! It seems that you know! Forget it, let's wash off the dirt on it first, and you will know gone."

Turning on the high-pressure water gun that usually washes the deck, Zhuang Haiyang began to wash away the stones that were polluted by seawater and could not see what they were.After the stone was thoroughly cleaned, some comrades were delighted and said, "Ah! I know what this is!"

"You're also being tricky, hurry up and tell me, what is this thing?"

"Why do you have eyes? Look carefully, this stone has one side, isn't it glowing green?"

Green stones!

Accompanied by Zhuang Haiyang, the stones washed out showed the green side to the comrades in arms.These comrades-in-arms also said excitedly: "Hai Hai, this should be jadeite? Right? Then this is rough jadeite?"

"Hmm! If I'm not mistaken, the stones transported on this ship should all be rough emeralds purchased by merchants. Although no one knows whether these stones contain emeralds, but I believe that once there are emeralds, the quality should be good.

Right now, the jadeite market is booming, and top-quality rough jadeite is hard to find.After our stones are transported back, we should find a professional stone interpreter to untie them all, and sell the jade directly, so we should not worry about selling them. "

Following Zhuang Haiyang's words, the other comrades suddenly felt that the pile of stones that had been carried on the boat earlier seemed to be the real treasure.Fortunately, some of them know the goods. Otherwise, it is really possible to enter Baoshan but return empty-handed!
Wu Xingcheng, who was in charge of supper, was naturally happy when he heard that the stones he salvaged earlier were all very valuable rough jadeite from Laokeng.When the emeralds are unearthed, I believe that the wealth brought by these stones will exceed the imagination of all comrades-in-arms.

But as far as Zhuang Haiyang is concerned, there are a few rough stones among them, and he doesn't plan to sell them after the emeralds are unearthed.The reason is that the emeralds contained in those rough stones are all extremely rare and good emeralds, and he intends to make them into jewelry.

In that case, it can also be used as an ornament to marry Concubine Li in the future.Secondly, create some unified trinkets, which can be given as gifts when these comrades get married in the future. I believe the comrades and couples will be very happy.

Although the items salvaged this time did not seem to be as many as the previous one, in terms of value, Zhuang Haiyang felt that it should not be lower than the previous one.When I return to the voyage this time, I believe that Zhao Penglin and others will also feel very pleasantly surprised!

In addition to these rough emeralds, many pieces of gold bricks and silver ingots were salvaged from the shipwreck, as well as a box of high-quality pearls.In Zhuang Haiyang's view, once these pearls appear at the auction, they are bound to become sought after by ladies.

Every time something is salvaged, Zhuang Haiyang will also pick some for his own collection.The shipwreck items that were actually handed over to the company for sale were all things that Zhuang Haiyang felt were not of high value for collection.Every time I keep some, it can be regarded as a souvenir.

After dinner, except for the comrades who are on guard duty at night, most of them don't drink alcohol.The other comrades who were not on duty originally wanted to drink freely, but they were all persuaded by Wang Yanming, saying that they must maintain a high degree of concentration these days.

There is a batch of such valuable things hidden on the ship, if it were someone else, they would definitely return immediately.Only Zhuang Haiyang still seemed to be fishing at sea.If you don't raise your vigilance, maybe people will have an opportunity to take advantage of it.

After staying at sea for three days, seeing the last trawling fish successfully hoisted onto the boat, Zhuang Haiyang also said immediately: "Squad leader, let's go back to the voyage! With this net of fish, we can basically hold it in the water tank." Man, then go back!"

"it is good!"

"Others, take the time to sort out the seafood. The valuable or alive ones are thrown into the water tank for raising. The dead ones, if they are valuable, are sent to the fresh-keeping compartment. Ordinary seafood is put into the freezer compartment. Bar!"

"Okay! Brothers, work hard, you can go home and rest after finishing!"

As the salvage ship began to return and entered the economic territorial waters, many comrades in arms breathed a sigh of relief.In their view, they will be relatively safe when they enter this sea area.Foreign ships generally dare not enter such waters.

On the other hand, Zhuang Haiyang, who was sitting on the bow, had been paying attention to the ships cruising nearby.The other comrades-in-arms didn't say anything about him not helping to clean up the fish.They all knew that Zhuang Haiyang wasn't idle, and was also guarding and guarding for them!
All the work was done, and the remaining voyage to Nanshan Island was not far away. Seeing that the meal was ready, Zhuang Haiyang also ordered everyone to start eating.As for the salvage ship, it slowed down until it was getting dark, and finally arrived at the Nanshan Island wharf.

Looking at the comrades around him, Zhuang Haiyang also asked Lin Xin to take Awai home.The remaining comrades began to transfer all the salvaged items from the sunken ship to the yachts parked in the dock according to the division of labor.

After completing the work of transferring the items, Zhuang Haiyang immediately said: "Pengzi, you stay to watch the house and send someone to watch the dock. I will accompany Lao Wang and the others to the town. Let Hongjie prepare some good dishes, and let's have a good drink tonight .”

"Okay! At home, don't worry!"

Although the value of the things transferred to the yacht was higher, Qian Yunpeng and others knew that the salvage ship was docked at the dock as usual, so others would not have any doubts.I just feel that they only fished but did not salvage the sunken ship this trip.

Until this moment, many comrades did not understand why Zhuang Haiyang wanted to customize such a dual-purpose boat.Only in this way can they salvage the sunken ship in a low-key manner without attracting too many people's attention and causing themselves too much trouble!
