Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 695 New Discovery

If other treasures are really discovered on the island, it will be an unexpected surprise for Chu Xiangqian.

Then Chu Xiangqian was thinking about whether he should keep the newly discovered treasure for himself.

Once this is done, Philips and Norton cannot be killed, and Chu Xiangqian can only create an accident and kill the two bodyguards who found the treasure.

After thinking for a while, Chu Xiangqian finally had a few preparation plans in mind.

Then I picked up my backpack, took out a hammock and hung it up. Then I took out a simple stove, coffee, water, bread and other things to make afternoon tea.

While eating and drinking, she and Margaret made love to each other, and her attention was always on the sight of tits.

The bodyguards on the west side discovered the huge log, but seeing that the wood was covered with moss, they subconsciously ignored it.

Then continue to look around for explosions.

This made Chu Xiangqian's tense heart relax.

When he was still in Novice Village, the hare would take the initiative to attack Chu Qianqian, but after coming to the real world, he immediately became timid again.

Unexpectedly, when the machete hit the damaged wooden fence on the deck, there was suddenly a clear 'ding' sound.

By the time everyone saw Chu Xiangqian coming back with two fat rabbits, it had only been about twenty minutes.

Maybe, I was still thinking happily that I was lucky enough to have trapped the rabbit in the wood.

In the Novice Village Square, I carefully observed both ends of the log, and soon found that there was a solid piece of wood on both sides of the log, which could be broken with just a handful of hands.

But I didn't expect that this guy didn't think about taking it all for himself.

But what people didn't expect was that when Ward was preparing to roast rabbit, he looked at the abandoned sea ship because he didn't want to look for wood.

In just twenty minutes, even the most suspicious Philips did not suspect that he left the camp and actually swallowed the gold.

After all, Philips' attitude towards Chu Xiangqian was indeed not good in the past few days.

When Norton saw the hare, he hurriedly stepped forward to take it and handed it to Ward to handle.

He regretted now that he did not insist on taking the frigate to hunt for treasure.

No one would doubt that Chu Xiangqian could hide a huge amount of gold in just ten minutes.

Chu Xiangqian said this deliberately, because he wanted Philip to be a little suspicious now.

Revealing the glittering gold nugget inside.

Ward was stunned, and Chu Qianqian was equally surprised. He was hesitating whether to use his tits to cut off Ward's neck.

After eating afternoon tea, Chu Xiangqian hugged Margaret directly and lay on the hammock to take a nap.

Philips, Norton and others did not hear it, but Chu Qianqian's hearing had been enhanced, and the sound of metal collision could not be hidden from his ears at all.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, after Chu Qianqian woke up, he said to Arthur and Ward, "While it's still dark, go and see if there are any mushrooms around.

Chu Qianqian sighed helplessly in his heart. Ward did this and he was embarrassed to kill him.

The tit quickly flew back and landed on the mast on the deck. It saw Ward carefully cutting a wooden fence with a machete, revealing the gold coins shining inside.

It would be even better if you could catch a rabbit or something. "

Maybe Ward would regret it later, but now, after seeing the gold coin, he just checked it to make sure it was a real gold coin.

He kissed Margaret, who wanted to go hunting with her, and comforted Margaret with the excuse that she was worried about poisonous snakes, and then walked west with a bow and arrows on her back.

Chu smiled forward, then stretched out his hand to grab the hare, easily broke one of its hind legs, and then stuffed it into the log again.

Then Chu Xiangqian picked two hares from the novice village that had been shot by bows and arrows when spawning monsters before. He held them in his hands and walked back slowly.

There is plenty of dry wood on the secret passage boat that can be used for fire.

He went on the deck with a machete, intending to cut down some random pieces of wood for the fire.

In other words, Ward subconsciously believed that since everyone came together to hunt for treasure and there was a distribution plan, they could not keep it to themselves.

He immediately shouted loudly.

After leaving Novice Village and putting the logs back in place, the hare suddenly became more honest.

Not only did he not continue to attack Chu Qianqian, he was so frightened that he hid in the log.

After all the gold was poured out, Chu Xiangqian looked carefully to see if there were any gold nuggets inside. After making sure that all the gold was poured out, he grabbed a live hare and put it into the log.

Chu Qianqian felt happy, raised the other end of the log, and poured out all the gold inside.

Sure enough, Norton and Margaret were not worried at all that Chu Xiangqian would be harmful to them, but Philip felt that his force was much stronger than his own. If he had bad intentions, he would wait until Arthur and Ward went Hunted.

But this was enough for Chu Xiangqian to take the huge log directly into Novice Village.

In case the bodyguard who went west came back and passed by here again, even if he found that the log was hollow, he would naturally not think about the gold nuggets hidden in the log after seeing a hare with an injured leg inside.

Chu shrugged forward, jumped off the hammock, and took out a folding bow and a few long arrows from his backpack.

Failure to move forward will be detrimental to yourself.

He could only say that Chu Qianqian was the best at hunting, and it was almost getting dark, so it was up to him to hunt before he could actually catch something to eat.

Don't worry at all that Philips, Norton, Arthur and Ward will be detrimental to you.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian's strength was already 8.9, otherwise he would not be able to lift the log that contained a large amount of gold.

When facing a selfless guy, even though Chu Xiangqian has always been ruthless, there is still a bottom line.

More importantly, if you do it at this time, no matter how clean the tit is, it will leave many questionable clues.

Following Philip, Norton and Arthur, they quickly climbed onto the deck and saw dozens of gold coins exposed in a wooden fence that had been split open by Ward with a machete.

You can immediately recognize this as the Kangaroo Country, a Sydney gold coin made in 1856.

Then I thought that after carrying a large number of antiques and treasures snatched from China, this sea-going ship deliberately did not take the usual route and returned to France as soon as possible.

Instead, they took a detour and went to Kangaroo Country first. It seemed that this ship might have been transporting gold, not many antiques and treasures.

Or maybe the antique treasures were on another ship and returned to France first, so the descendants of the French count had so many antiques from the Celestial Dynasty.

This ship was specially designed to transport gold ingots snatched from China and brought to the Kangaroo Kingdom to be melted into Sydney gold coins and gold nuggets.

Then he made the excuse that these gold coins and gold nuggets were earned from doing business with the Kangaroo Country, and they could be used directly after they were brought back to France.

After all, the measurement units of China are still very different from those of Europe and the United States.

It's a pity that the news was accidentally leaked when the gold ingots braided toward the head were melted into gold coins and gold nuggets in Sydney.

Being targeted by forces in Southeast Asia, pretending to be pirates, or being robbed by pirates.

Thinking about it this way, it makes sense why the pirates dragged the ship into a cave dozens of meters high.

What Chu Xiangqian didn't know was that between 1854 and 1870 alone, more than 88.6 ounces of gold coins produced by the Sydney Mint flowed into the Braid Dynasty.

In the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, there were not only kangaroo gold and silver coins on the market, but they were also used directly as currency. Spain, France, England, and Magnesia all have a large amount of gold and silver coins flowing into the Braid Dynasty.

It can be said that the Braided Dynasty back then relied on trade to make a lot of money.

As a result, there was a money shortage in Europe and the United States.

Since the legitimate trade cannot compete with the braided dynasty, then they engage in crooked ways. This is how large-scale tobacco exports entered the braided dynasty.

From 1851 to 1861, Kangaroo Country mined more than 1.24 million pounds, equivalent to 8814 tons of gold.

It can be seen that the wealth that the Ying Kingdom plundered from the colonies was countless.
-
Chu Xiangqian thought there wouldn't be too many gold coins hidden on the ship, but he didn't want to follow him, Phillip, Ward, Norton, and Arthur to chop and knock with machetes to find the gold coins.
In addition to more than two thousand gold coins hidden in the fence on the deck.

Unexpectedly, I found a man-made compartment under the deck again.

Opening all the wooden boards, you can see that the wooden board grids in the compartments are filled with gold coins.

Not to mention Philips and the others, even if Chu Xiangqian had long been immune to gold, he still couldn't help but get excited when he saw so many gold coins.

For a moment, he thought about killing Philips and the others.

But I haven't made up my mind yet, so I'm subconsciously making up my mind.

Suddenly it felt meaningless.

Watching Norton and others take out all the gold coins from a grid, they only found 1 gold coins.

There are only thirty or forty wooden lattice mezzanines around.

In total, that's thirty to forty thousand gold coins.

Chu Xiangqian asked Philips, Norton and others. Unexpectedly, Arthur was the one who understood the gold coin market among everyone.

Arthur only calculated for more than ten seconds and said that the market value of these 1856 to Sydney gold coins would never exceed one million pounds.

Hearing this, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but curl his lips. With just this little money, he really didn't need to kill anyone.

The weight of Sydney gold coins has always been 7.99 grams, which is 4 to 32 gold coins. Even if it is calculated as 320, it is only grams or kilograms.

Based on the international gold price of US$5 per ounce in May this year, it was only US$38.

Of course, the actual value of this kind of gold coin from a hundred years ago cannot be calculated simply by the price of gold.

It is a pity that there are too many gold coins of this kind. At that time, the Sydney Mint minted hundreds of thousands of gold coins every year.

Counting over ten or twenty years, there are definitely tens of millions of them.

Even though many of them have been smelted into gold nuggets, bars or new gold coins in the past 1 years, there are certainly many that have survived.

That's why Arthur said that with 400 to coins, at most one million pounds, that is, less than million US dollars.

And a gold coin is worth 1 US dollars, which is actually quite expensive.

But once it is introduced to the market, it will 100% cause the price to plummet.

In this way, Chu Xiangqian couldn't arouse any interest in killing people.

Not to mention the iron ore transaction with Philips, the total transaction amount with Norton in the past two years alone exceeded more than two million pounds.

Just one black tiger originally cost 50 pounds.

Later, a white tiger was sold for another 30 pounds, and there was also a transaction of tiger bone wine, which was also a large amount.

Now that Chu Xiangqian had extinguished the idea of ​​killing, he suddenly thought and said, "Give me all the bronzes and porcelain outside, and I will use gold coins to offset the price of the antiques. How about that?"

Ward and Arthur naturally had no objection. Although Arthur had studied ancient coins, he also knew in his heart that the value of the gold coins found this time was not high.

Of course, even if it is introduced to the market, the price of gold coins will fall.

But after all, it was only 4 ancient gold coins. Compared with the salary, this treasure hunting trip could be regarded as a small fortune.

Four bodyguards share 4% of the treasure, which equals that each person can receive gold coins worth 10 pounds.

As for the bronzes and porcelain of the Celestial Dynasty, they are worth tens of thousands of pounds at most.

Even if it was given to Chu Xiangqian for free, no one would care.

Philips and Norton had long known that Chu Xiangqian had been collecting and buying back antiques from China in the past two years.

Moreover, the bronzes and porcelain of the Celestial Dynasty were abundant in Europe, so there was no need to compete with Chu Qianqian.

Since Chu Xiangqian is willing to buy it with gold coins, Philips and Norton will naturally not object.

In several trips, transport all the gold coins out of the ship and put them on the open space.

The sky has also darkened.

When Chu Qianqian saw Philip and others, even though he was tired and out of breath, he still planned to enter the ship again to see if there was any such compartment.

He couldn't help but smile and shake his head, but he could also understand the mood of Philips and others.

If I didn't have so much gold that it was measured in hundreds of tons, I would most likely have the same positive attitude toward searching for gold as they did.

He took the initiative to tell everyone that he and Margaret would stay to cook dinner.

When Philip and the others went to the cabin of the sea ship to continue searching, Margaret whispered to Chu Qianqian, "My dear, I feel that except for this sea ship.

Maybe there are other treasures on this island. "

Chu Qianqian, who was making a fire to roast the rabbit, was startled and secretly thought that since Margaret could think of this, other people would naturally have the same thought.

It's a pity that even if you know that there are probably other treasure places on the island, it's not that easy to find them.

To say that this island is small is also compared to other islands.

In fact, even if you bury a few boxes in a football stadium, it will be very difficult to find them decades later.

Not to mention that this island is not only the size of at least dozens of football fields, but also has mountains, woods, and grasslands in its environment.

Unless you have a metal detector, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Chu Qianqian silently calculated that even if he found several tons of gold, he would not make as much money as he did laundering money for Pablo every month.

Moreover, Chu Xiangqian had a vague suspicion that even if there was a place to hide gold coins or gold nuggets, it would most likely be near the cave.

After all, there was a real example of the huge log. Chu Qianqian couldn't help but lean against the hare and command the tits to continue searching around the cave.

Unexpectedly, when it was getting dark and Philip's two bodyguards came back, Titmouse really discovered something suspicious.

But thanks to its small body, the chickadee got into another cave covered by trees, and found boxes of silver coins inside.

Seeing this, Chu Xiangqian was both happy and cursed secretly in his heart.

Silver experienced a price collapse in the 30s.

By now, silver has long ceased to be a currency. Pure industrial demand has destined the value of silver to only get lower and lower.
