Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 704: Treasure in the bottom deck

After cruising around the submarine for a while, looking at Ye Tian and the others in the cockpit, the school of rays quickly lost interest and glide away with their huge wing-shaped pectoral fins!

When they were completely hidden into the darkness in the distance, everyone looked back, and everyone was still unfulfilled.

Next, there was an exciting discussion.

"The faces of these rays are so scary! They look like ghosts indeed!"

"That's right! Especially the insidious smile on their faces, it gives people a creepy feeling."

"This thing is really a complex of contradictions, its swimming posture is elegant and elegant, but it looks so terrifying, it will make people have nightmares when you see it!"

After a few lively discussions, everyone's attention turned back to the sinking of the San Anthony and began to explore the ancient Spanish battleship.

Ye Tian turned on the perspective and continued to explore the places in the cabin that were not illuminated by the lights.

Through the transparent glass cockpit, several meters of sea water, and the bulkhead of the battleship ahead, you can once again see the situation inside.

This is still a cargo hold, to be precise, a water tank, which is used to store fresh water!

Many water storage containers can be seen in the cabin, including water tanks and large wooden barrels. The water storage capacity is considerable, which can basically ensure the sailing consumption of this warship for one or two months.

Numerous buckets were fixed in the cabin. Even though the St. Anthony had fought fiercely with the pirates and sank to the bottom of the sea, these buckets were never capsized, and they were still in their place and firmly fixed.

Next to the wooden buckets, there are also some empty boxes, many in number.

If unsurprisingly, these boxes were once filled with limes.

During ocean voyages, the shelf life of the fresh water on the sailboat is very short, and it will become rotten in a few days, making it hard to swallow!

However, fresh water is a daily necessity for the human body, and no one can be an exception!

In order to conceal the spoiled taste of fresh water, so that it can be swallowed, and to replenish water for the people on board, the navigators finally came up with a way after long-term exploration.

That is adding lime to fresh water! To improve water quality!

Although the fresh water with lime is still very awful, it can be swallowed anyway! Better than dying of thirst on the sea!

Lime can not only cover up the spoilage of fresh water, but also prevent sepsis.

Because of this, in the age of sailing, every sailing sailing voyage will carry a lot of limes, without exception! Whether it is a navy or a pirate!

In addition to lime, there is another essential thing on these voyage sailing boats, that is rum!

Rum is definitely their favorite for crew sailing voyages. Rum is even more attractive than gold when sailing at sea!

Appropriate consumption of rum, a by-product of sugar production, can not only replenish the energy needed by the human body, but also relieve the loneliness caused by long-distance voyages.

Moreover, rum can also be mixed with spoiled fresh water for drinking, which not only reduces the alcohol content, but also makes the fresh water smoothly swallowed.

Just like Danshui, rum is a necessary strategic material on sailing sailing ships, and it is indispensable to use a fixed ration on the ship!

In this cabin, Ye Tian did not find the wooden barrels containing rum, but there must be a large amount of rum stored in this ancient sailing ship.

Sure enough, in the next cabin, Ye Tian immediately saw dozens of oak barrels filled with rum, and some were filled with red wine.

It is a pity that these sealed oak barrels containing rum and red wine have long been fractured under the terrifying pressure of a water depth of 300 meters, and the wine in them has all been fused into the ocean.

You know, every 10 meters in the sea will increase the pressure by one atmosphere, and the pressure at a depth of 300 meters on the seabed can be imagined. How can sealed oak barrels be able to withstand it.

Looking at the cracked oak barrels and the glass shards of high-end rum and red wine bottles in several of the boxes, Ye Tian couldn't help but feel sad.

These fine wines with hundreds of years of history can be considered a wealth if they are preserved, but unfortunately now there are only a few broken barrels and glass shards!

After looking through the cabin containing the wine, Ye Tian's gaze immediately moved down and looked towards the cabin below.

This is a cabin on the bottom deck. It is also a cargo hold. The volume is small. The door is closed and there are more than 20 wooden boxes inside.

Unlike the cargo holds on the upper decks, it is not messy here. Many wooden crates are neatly stacked, everything is in order and very orderly!

Obviously, the pirates did not attack this deck or the cargo hold.

Perhaps when the pirates who won the battle were preparing to attack here menacingly, the Saint Anthony had already begun to sink, and the situation was at stake!

Due to the situation, the pirates had to evacuate this Spanish warship!

Moreover, the boxes here were probably all fixed with cables at the time, and they did not overturn due to the sinking of the battleship. They still maintained their original appearance!

When the perspective gaze arrived here, a dazzling yellow and orange light suddenly flashed in Ye Tian's eyes, which was very dazzling and made people a little dizzy!

This sudden color change made Ye Tian almost exclaimed.

Fortunately, he was considered well-tested, and he had a certain degree of psychological preparation. This did not appear to be unusual, and he did not attract the attention of the other three people in the cockpit.

In the next instant, an ecstasy flashed across his eyes.

From the dazzling light from those boxes, he immediately came to a conclusion.

These boxes are filled with a large number of antique works of art, at least more than 400 years old, and more than 500 years of history abound!

He knew exactly what these antiques were, almost without even thinking about it.

It must be a lot of gold and silver jewelry, especially gold and gems, because these things are the favorites of Spanish colonists, there is no doubt about this!

My previous judgment is correct. The Saint Anthony is not simply an ocean-going warship, but a Spanish treasure ship that everyone wants to meet!

The large amount of gold and silver treasures plundered by the Spanish colonists in Latin America was transported back to Spain continuously through treasure ships like the Saint Anthony, accumulating a large amount of wealth for that small southern European country!

This also explains why the pirates took great risks to attack this heavily armed Spanish warship, all because of these alluring gold and silver treasures!

After adjusting his breath secretly, Ye Tian's gaze continued to move forward and directly penetrated the wooden boards of the boxes, clearly seeing the situation inside.

really! These boxes are filled with gold and silver treasures, the amount is quite amazing!

Among them are hundreds of thousands of gold coins, icons made of gold, a large number of gold bricks of different specifications, many dazzling gems, and crystal clear diamonds!

Most of those gold coins were ordinary gold coins, and each one was golden, radiating a charming light, as if it had just been thrown into the sea.

In these huge numbers of gold coins, the shadow of the Spanish royal eight-shaped escudo of the 16th century and several other rare gold coins can be found occasionally. The overall value is incalculable!

There are also many golden icons. There are icons of religious figures and man-made statues of Spanish royal names. There are also some objects such as eucharist boxes, reliquary boxes, display tables, communion cups, etc., each of which is of great value!

The types of gems are rich and varied, including topaz, cornelian, the top Colombian emeralds, and more than a dozen diamonds, each of which is not small, dazzling and fascinating!

Even Ye Tian, ​​who has already been promoted to a billionaire billionaire, can't help feeling dazzled and excited when he sees these shining gold and silver treasures in front of him!

"hiss--!"

After quickly scanning the entire cabin ~www.ltnovel.com~ Ye Tian immediately took a breath of air-conditioning secretly.

According to his rough estimation, the total value of the gold and silver treasures found in this cabin alone has easily surpassed 100 million U.S. dollars or more.

There is no doubt that this is definitely a major discovery, and even a huge wealth that has fallen from the sky.

More importantly, this huge amount of wealth belongs only to himself, to the Brave Fearless Exploration Company, and has nothing to do with Raytheon Security Company.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately cheered in excitement.

If it were not for the wrong occasion, he would have jumped up and celebrated with a fist.

Although he was very excited, his face did not show any strangeness, his expression remained the same!

After scanning the many gold and silver treasures in the cabin again and calming down some emotions secretly, Ye Tiancai reluctantly turned his eyes away from these charming babies and looked at another cabin next to him.
