The richest man starts from the treasure hunt in the container

Chapter 296 Illegal Salvage!

Zhu Yu carried the oxygen cylinder on his back and held a spear gun in his hand, and slowly dived into the big hole.

Suddenly, six long tentacles stretched out from the big hole, and slammed towards Zhu Yu!

"laugh!"

Zhu Yu had been prepared for a long time, raised his spear gun and shot at the center of the tentacles!

The octopus had no time to hide, and was shot straight at it!

As soon as Zhu Yu retracted the rope, he pulled out the huge octopus with tentacles as long as two meters!
The octopus tentacle originally thought that Zhu Yu was grabbed into the hole to eat by pinching it with his hands, but he didn't expect the opponent's strength to be stronger than it!

There were only two tentacles left as legs, and they had no choice but to suck the boat planks on both sides, and played tug-of-war with Zhu Yu.

After Zhu Yu's body was transformed with energy, he became so powerful that he pulled out the two tentacles of the octopus, and at the same time brought out two ship planks.

The originally half-meter-square hole suddenly doubled in size, and dust billowed in the sea water. Zhu Yu knew that it was not a good time to fish for things, so he went upstream while fighting with the octopus' tentacles.

The octopus was shot in the vitals by the spear gun, and its fighting power was reduced a lot, but even so, it still tightly entangled Zhu Yu's upper body, giving him a certain feeling of restraint.

Surfacing on the surface, Zhu Yu ignored the suction cups on the octopus tentacles that were fiercely sucking around his muscles, and swam towards the direction of the yacht.

On the deck, Chen Yonghao was very surprised to see a tentacle popping up beside Zhu Yu from time to time while swimming!
He didn't feel relieved until he found out that it was a huge octopus.

Chen Yonghao lived by the sea all year round, so he naturally knew how powerful this thing was, so he hurriedly pulled Zhu Yu up.

Cao Dalong, who had come up earlier, also hurried over to help, and the three of them worked together to pull the octopus down.

Zhu Yu looked at his body again, it was already blue and purple, with round marks, like cupping.

"This hurts a lot!" Chen Yonghao said worriedly.

"It's okay, it will be fine soon." Zhu Yu already felt itchy at the sucked part, the kind of itch where the scar grows flesh, he said with a smile:
"We can have grilled octopus tonight!"

"No problem!" Cao Dalong said excitedly, "This is the first time I've seen such a big octopus! Is it going to be fine?"

Zhu Yu said to Chen Yonghao:
"I found a sunken ship underwater..."

"Really?" Chen Yonghao grabbed Zhu Yu's arm excitedly after hearing this, "Is it my ancestor's boat? What's in it? What did you see?"

Zhu Yu didn't expect him to be so excited, so he patted him lightly, motioning him not to be so excited, and then said:

"I don't know if the ship was sunk or had an accident. There is a big hole on the side, and this guy is inside."

He pointed to the octopus.

"But I guess it might not be your ancestor's ship, so don't hold out too much hope..."

When Zhu Yu said this, Chen Yonghao's expression turned ugly.

Zhu Yu smiled and said:
"I'm telling you this not to hurt you, but to tell you that this area of ​​water should be the waterway in ancient times, so there are sunken ships.

Since it is a waterway, if your ancestor's ship sank, it must be on this road, which means that we are looking for the right way. "

After hearing Zhu Yu's words, Chen Yonghao looked a little better.

"Okay, I'll go down and have a look, maybe I can find something good from the boat. In that case, at least you don't have to live in such a poor life!"

Chen Yonghao forced a smile and said:

"I don't want to divide it. This is your credit. I only hope to find the sunken ship of my ancestors as soon as possible..."

Zhu Yu interrupted him and said:
"Willing requires hard work to achieve, but life has to go on. Since there is such a condition, why do you have to be so stubborn? Without you, I would not be able to find the sunken ship below."

Chen Yonghao wanted to say more, but Zhu Yu interrupted him again:
"Don't worry, I'm a treasure hunter. I'm very selfish. I won't give you a lot."

When he said this, Chen Yonghao felt embarrassed:
"I did not mean that……"

"That's what I meant."

After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he laughed.

Feeling that his energy had recovered, he dived again and arrived at the wreck.

The sea water that had been turbulent before is now calm again, and there are more sea fish in the vicinity.I don't know if it's because these fish already know that their natural enemy, the octopus, has been taken away, so they are bold.

Now that the big hole is easy for people to enter, Zhu Yutian glanced at it, and then slowly swam into it.

What came in was the cabin, the boat was not too big, at least not as big as the starfish yacht that Zhu Yu and the others rented.

The goods originally placed in the cabin became messy due to the sinking of the ship.

The goods are ten iron-clad wooden boxes.

Zhu Yu stepped forward and gently moved one of the boxes, only to find that it was quite solid and not rotten.

The cabin was divided into several rooms. It should have been known to divide the watertight cabin in that era.

He forced open the original cabin door and entered another smaller cabin.

Inside, there are two boxes, one big and one small.These two boxes are both iron boxes, looking at the intricate patterns, Zhu Yu was surprised that there were Chinese characters on them!

Obviously, this is another Chinese ship hundreds of years ago.

In other words, the Chinese who robbed and bought things?
These two boxes, one containing gold cakes and the other containing silver cakes, are both irregular in shape.

Zhu Yu guessed that the gold and silver should be found in the local gold and silver mines and finally minted privately.

So irregular.

Putting the two boxes into the space, Zhu Yu Tianyan scanned the ship again, basically there was nothing else of value.

Then return to the original cargo hold.

The goods in these ten boxes are their harvest on the surface.

At least these things should be worth a lot of money.

Take a sip first.

After looking at the boxes, he felt a little regretful, he should have called Cao Dalong and others up together.

Forget it, let's take a sip first.

Zhu Yu put away the spear gun, picked up the 1.8-meter-long, [-]-meter-wide box, walked out of the hole, and slowly floated up.

With this box weighing tens of kilograms, Zhu Yu's speed did not slow down much.

His main fear was that the box would fall apart.However, it was obvious that the box was made of very good wood, and the corners were covered with iron. There was no sign of cracking until he swam to the yacht.

Chen Yonghao helped Zhu Yu pull the box up, and Zhu Yu got on the deck and said:
"Open it and see what's inside."

Chen Yonghao looked at it a little excitedly. He had some hope at first, but it was shattered at this time.

This is obviously not something from the Ming Dynasty.

He pointed to the pattern on the box and said:

"This kind of box should be a weapon box from the colonial period in Southeast Asia. It appeared about two or three hundred years ago... It is indeed, as you said, not my ancestor's ship."

"There is no bone of a single person on that ship." Zhu Yu said, "There are quite a few such goods."

At this time, the three of Ran Jie also gathered together, looking at the box curiously.

"Don't look, just open it." Zhu Yu said, "It's locked, pick it."

"Be careful!" Chen Yonghao said hurriedly, "This lock is also an antique, and it's worth a lot of money!"

Only then did Zhu Yu remember Chen Yonghao's previous predicament, so he nodded and said:
"Then be careful..."

"And this box, I've seen a box like this in a Chinese market, and it sold for thousands of dollars!"

Zhu Yu nodded and didn't speak any more.

Ran Jie and Qin Fei carefully pried off the lock of the box, opened the box, and then saw the long strips wrapped tightly in oiled paper.

"This is……"

Zhu Yu bent down to pick up one, and unwrapped the oiled paper bag layer by layer. The surrounding people were very surprised. The oiled paper bag was soaked on the outside, but it didn't look very wet inside?
Is it...

When Zhu Yu removed the last layer of oil paper, revealing a long strip——

An antique flintlock gun!
"Wow! It's quite new!" Cao Dalong exclaimed in amazement, "It seems that it hasn't been corroded by sea water much."

There is indeed a layer of water film on it, but there is a layer of oil on the gun. Seeing that the gun is wrapped better by the box and oil paper, the sea water does not have much effect.

"This is a breech-loading flintlock!" Chen Yonghao took the gun from Zhu Yu, looked carefully at it and said, "In the antique market here, such a gun costs at least three to five thousand dollars!"

This box is ten guns.

There are still nine boxes in the sunken ship below, which is hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Not only the money for chartering the boat came back, but also a small profit.

"Then who will come down with me? There are still nine boxes below, let's fish them all up, and then go out and sell these things!"

"I go!"

"I go!"

"I am coming too!"

All three of Ran Jie spoke.

Zhu Yu nodded:

"I'll tell you the position, just replace me later."

Chen Yonghao didn't expect them to be so active, now it's too late for him to say something, but Zhu Yu didn't let him go:
"Brother Chen, you should have a channel for these guns, right? The kind that is kept secret."

"Yes." Although Chen Yonghao was down and out, he still had some contacts.The main reason for his downfall is that he is too persistent, otherwise, it would be no problem to live a little more nourished.

"Okay, you check the gun on the boat, let's go down to get the box, and get back the money for renting the boat first."

Chen Yonghao nodded and said nothing.

It took an hour, and all ten boxes were fished up, and the next step was to have a feast of octopus.

The next day, the yacht returned.

Back to Jakarta port.

As soon as the boat was fastened, someone came over from afar and said loudly to Chen Yonghao who was about to get off the boat:
"Boss Chen, I've been waiting for you for a long time! Finally I've waited for you... This is Mr. Zhu, right? Nice to meet you!"

The person who came was a middle-aged man who was about 50 years old, with a dark complexion, not much hair left, a Mediterranean type, and a three-pointed smile when he spoke.

About 1.7 meters tall, wearing short-sleeved pants and jade bracelets on his hands, this kind of person is often called a greasy uncle.

Chen Yonghao glanced at him, then turned his head and introduced to Zhu Yu:
"This is Iron Boss, a second-generation Chinese. He used to be in Singapore, but he came to Indonesia in the past few years. The business is very complicated. The price we got this time is relatively fair."

Zhu Yu nodded.

"Boss Tie, this is Mr. Zhu, my partner."

"Okay." Boss Tie said with a smile, "Mr. Zhu is young and promising! Let's communicate more in the future... shit..."

"Let's get on the boat and have a look." Zhu Yu said.

Zhu Yu has been hunting for treasure all year round, and Zhu Yu knows that many countries have laws and regulations that prohibit private salvage.

So be careful.

Boss Tie boarded the boat and entered the cabin, where Ran Jie and the others had already opened a box.

Boss Tie stepped forward, picked up a greased paper bag and opened it layer by layer. When he saw the gun, his eyes lit up!
"nice one!"

He carefully stroked the gun body up and down, as if stroking a woman's body, and then said again:

"The breech-loading flintlock, this style should be the standard weapon of the colonial army in the [-]th century. Now it is almost impossible to find a brand new one like this - I didn't expect it to be so well preserved in the sea !"

He looked up at Zhu Yu:
"Mr. Zhu, how much is this? Make an offer, I'll take it all!"

He could tell that although Chen Yonghao was talking about collaborators, Zhu Yu must be the main one of the two.

"Five thousand dollars a piece." Zhu Yu said, "I'll give you the box and so on."

"The price is too high!" Boss Tie shook his head, "If the quantity is large, it will take me a long time to get back the funds, and it won't be worthwhile to sell the goods."

"The price, a [-]% new gun has already reached [-] US dollars." Zhu Yu was not idle during the time on the boat, "Although I don't say [-]% new, I have never used it!
As soon as this gun appeared on the market, which of those collectors would not want one?Five thousand dollars is already low.If Mr. Tie thinks it's not worth it, then think about it first, let's find someone else. "

Boss Tie didn't expect that Zhu Yu didn't even ask him to pay back the price!

Of course he earned five thousand dollars, and he earned a lot.

But the nature of a businessman is such that he naturally wants to keep the price down.

After thinking for a while, he rolled his eyes and said with some embarrassment:

"Mr. Zhu, Boss Chen, to be honest, this thing is really good. But after all, his origin is unknown, so I take the risk. Do you think this is good? How about the hush money?"

Chen Yonghao suddenly became angry:

"Tie, how can you do this? The industry rule is not to ask the source, do you know your bad rules?"

"I'm telling the truth!" Boss Tie said with a playful smile on his face, "I'm also taking risks! Even if I don't spread the news, there's no guarantee that this news won't be known by others..."

"You..." Chen Yonghao was ashamed and angry, "I didn't expect you to be so despicable..."

He was the one who found the person, but he didn't expect that such a mistake would cause him to have no face to face Zhu Yu.

The faces of Ran Jie and the three were gloomy. As soon as Zhu Yu spoke, they would definitely take down this iron man in no time!
Zhu Yu sneered:
"Boss Tie, you think you've got us right?"

"Where is that..." Boss Tie really had that in mind.

"Then you can try it." Zhu Yu pointed outside, "You go and call the people from the relevant departments. I can also let you see if your plan can succeed!"

Boss Tie was startled by Zhu Yu's words.

Then he felt that Zhu Yu must be bluffing. If the other party has such a big face, how could he still cooperate with Chen Yonghao?
Besides, this person surnamed Zhu is definitely familiar.He had already found out about this prominent Chinese in Jakarta.

Therefore, he felt that Zhu Yu must be bluffing!
