Dragon Number...! ?
Song Wenbin only felt that his heart, which had sunk into the Java Trench first, was slowly rising. He seemed to think that he had heard of Jiaolonghao somewhere, and the name seemed strangely familiar.
"Jiaolong... underwater... detector?"
Huo Yu asked in shock.
"Underwater manned detector!"
Su Tina corrected her and spread her hands with a smile: "Actually, I knew Huo Yu when you prepared the Shenxing Taibao. I guess Brother Song will also prepare a boat on the water. After all, you have all learned to dive. . But I think the sea is so big that there are very few places that humans can reach. If the Nine-Pattern Dragon Treasure Box is hidden very deep and you can't get down, we still have a trump card."
"Underwater manned detector?"
Song Wenbin didn't understand these technical terms very well. He asked Sutina, "How deep can that thing dive?"
Sutina raised a finger: "It can dive to a depth of 7,000 meters, and it is currently in service. In fact, my disguised identity is actually an explorer from China National Petroleum Corporation, who is exploring oil in the Indian Ocean. And this is also Jiaolong. It is one of my country's most cutting-edge technologies, and it carries a robotic arm that can complete cutting and grabbing tasks at extremely deep depths."
7000 meters.....
Song Wenbin almost shed tears after listening to Su Tina's words. The so-called feeling of a village with a bright future and bright flowers is just like this. He forgot for a moment that this was a program filming, held Su Tina's hand, and said with tears in his eyes: "It's still necessary. It's you, Sutina, you are so useful! So smart!
"
Sutina's face turned red, and there was an uncontrollable smile on her lips after being praised by Brother Song, and she was elated.
The joy of surviving a desperate situation made Huo Yu rush up and hugged Sutina. Sutina was immediately a little nervous, pressed her head and stammered in fear: "You...don't...bite me... ..”
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yu bit the side of Sutina's face, startling her. But Huo Yu just kissed it hard and praised: "It's great!
Sutina, you are really the lucky star of the team!
Bobo wave...."
Seeing the two women like this, Song Wenbin immediately thought of his own settings and quickly let go of Su Tina, but even so, he walked around the cabin excitedly.
"Yes, yes, the thousands of meters of water will indeed isolate us, but it will also isolate other competitors. As long as we can dive to that depth and carry out operations, then the Van Balen will undoubtedly be ours. Something in the middle!
As long as we can find the Van Balen, then I think even if the Nine-Patterned Dragon Treasure Box is not on the Van Balen, the value of this ship is enough for us to do business. Moreover, I have a hunch that the Nine Pattern Dragon Treasure Box should be on that ship! Sutina, you are really awesome this time!
"
Sutina was praised by two colleagues for kissing at the same time. She stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, squeezed her fingers and said: "Actually...Actually...it's not as good as you said...I... ....The first thing I thought about was...if this plan was formulated...but failed to be used in the end, then my plan would be the cheapest...because I didn’t spend a penny so I could get my last million…”
Two excited people calm down.
The smiles on Song Wenbin and Huo Yu's faces disappeared.
There was an embarrassing silence inside the Bombardier 850 in flight.
.......
.......
Early the next morning, the plane stopped in Jakarta. After getting off the plane, Song Wenbin found the captain Kong Mao. The three people and the program team reboarded the Sambo and sailed all the way to Banda Aceh, the northernmost city in Indonesia.
After a long journey day and night, Song Wenbin came to this city full of Japanese buildings. Fortunately, after half a month in Amsterdam, Indonesia has now passed the fasting month of Ramadan and arrived in April.
After a brief resupply in Banda Aceh, the Sambo moved away from the land and headed into the deep sea. After another day and night of sailing, Song Wenbin was completely far away from the Indonesian coastline. All he could see now was water, deep blue water.
In fact, because the water where he was located was too deep, the color often looked not blue, but black.
The weather was pretty good and the sea was calm, but watching the almost black water rippling beneath him, Song Wenbin couldn't help but think of hundreds of years ago. The former Van Balen was hit by a magnitude 8.4 earthquake somewhere nearby. More than 150 people on board survived, so that for hundreds of years no one knew exactly where it sank. Location.
In front of such a deep and terrifying ocean, his existence is insignificant and insignificant. Even his Sambo is equally insignificant. Song Wenbin fully believed that even if he had a lot of modern technology, as long as there was another 8.4-magnitude earthquake in this place, the fate of the Sanbao would not be any different from that of the Van Balen.
】
It wasn't until another ship came on the sea that the unknown fear in his heart receded a little.
It was a huge barge with a total length of more than 90 meters and a width of 16 meters. There were many huge red balls and equipment on the boat. On its bow, several large characters were clearly written.
Xiangyanghong
09
Qingdao
"This is..." Song Wenbin looked at Su Tina in surprise.
"This is the mother ship of Jiaolong, Xiangyanghong 09."
Sutina said excitedly: "4,000-ton class, unlimited navigation around the world, all-electric pod propulsion system, professional laboratory and shipboard survey system, and even a professional ROV (underwater robot) operating system. If we determine the location of the Van Balen and there are too many treasures for the Jiaolong to salvage, we can use the rov to salvage it."
"Fuck..."
Song Wenbin thought to himself that this was really crazy.
Looking at the familiar oriental faces on the ship, he pretended to be casual and asked: "Although it's boring to ask, how much does this ship cost?"
"Seven hundred thousand yuan per day, if the Jiaolong is activated, it will be at least 1.5 million yuan per day. Of course, this does not include labor costs. In fact, there are more than 150 people on this ship. Including labor costs, I It is estimated that it will cost 2 million a day." Sutina said annoyed.
Song Wenbin took a breath of air, and then felt secretly happy.
Hahaha~ The little bitch has no good intentions. She used a deep-diving detector even though it was a conventional salvage plan, but she didn’t expect that the final treasure was actually in the deep sea. When the machine rings, there are ten thousand taels of gold. No matter if you find two or not, this cost is enough to keep Sutina away from the final prize.
In this way, he only needs to compete with Huo Yu.
He secretly glanced at Huo Yu and found that Huo Yu was also looking at him. He snorted and turned his head.
The Xiangyanghong 09 mothership stopped fifty meters away from the Sanbao. Song Wenbin and the program team took a kayak to the vicinity of the huge mothership. The three climbed up the rope ladder to the huge mothership. , and was immediately received by the captain.
The captain's name is Zhang Zhi, an old man in his sixties. He seems to have very high authority and knows a lot about what Song Wenbin and the others are doing. When Sutina showed the range of the Van Balen's sinking location determined by the team, the old captain looked very excited.
"This area looks very big, at least about 500 square kilometers. The Jiaolong is good at fixed-point dives, but first we need to determine the coordinates of the sunken ship." The captain pointed to the area on the map and said: "Otherwise, a detection The detector cannot detect such a large area.”
"How to determine?" Song Wenbin asked anxiously.
500 square kilometers is insignificant to the sea, but it is huge enough for them. It is not easy to find a sunken ship within this range.
But the captain of the Xiangyanghong 09 looked confident. He stood up and said, "Follow me."
The three of them followed the captain to the stern of the ship. Here, Song Wenbin did not see the legendary Jiaolong detector. Instead, he saw two cylindrical objects wrapped in huge steel. They were gray-black, extremely smooth, and connected to piles. There are piles of cables, and the technology content is very high at first glance.
"What is this?" Song Wenbin asked.
"The sjg-311 low-frequency active and passive variable depth towed line array sonar has a line array of more than 200 meters, a tow cable of 2,000 meters, and a detection range of 150 kilometers."
Zhang Zhi, the captain of the Xiangyanghong 09, said: "This is the most advanced underwater sonar system. It can detect any tiny bulge on the seabed thousands of meters away. Even American submarines can find it, let alone sunken ships. come out."
Crooked...
What an eye-opener.
"Then it's expensive to use this thing." He wanted to ask with concern.
"Yes, it will cost more than 100,000 per day to start, but based on the value of the shipwreck you mentioned, it is all worth it." Zhang Zhi replied.
Sutina's face became even more ugly.
Song Wenbin smiled slightly, but while he was relieved, he was also a little worried. With such a huge cost, he simply didn't know what to do if the national treasure could not be found. Now, he could only pray that the Van Balen could indeed be found underwater. of the wreckage.
…
…
Although it was located near the high seas, every minute and every second when performing tasks on the sea was very precious. No one dared to waste time. Soon, the professional sonar system was sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Subsequently, Xiangyanghong 09 started sailing on the sea.
During the voyage, Song Wenbin followed the captain, Captain Zhang, to the ship's laboratory. There were rows of huge computers and monitors, and a dozen very professional surveyors and engineers were busy there.
Captain Zhang brought Song Wenbin to a workbench, where a printer was printing huge drawings. These printed drawings were laid flat on the ground by the captain's technicians. The drawings were covered with gray and black The snowflake noise is as if the old TV has lost the signal.
But those surveyors and professional technicians held magnifying glasses and carefully examined the printed gray and white noise spots with solemn expressions.
Song Wenbin couldn't understand what they were doing, so he asked Sutina: "What are these people doing?"
Sutina explained: "Sonar scans the seabed and will scan out the bulges on the seabed. If there is a sunken ship, it will definitely reflect different noise points after hitting the sonar. Then that kind of place is what we want to focus on. In this place, it is even possible to launch the Jiaolong probe.”
Having said that, when Song Wenbin looked at the noise spots on the drawing, he really couldn't see any difference between those noise spots and noise spots.
The search lasted for a whole day. Xiang Yanghong 09 dragged the sonar along the demarcated area, searching for it like a grid, kilometer by kilometer. One day passed, and the seabed maps printed out in the laboratory were piled up in a thick pile.
However, the Xiangyanghong 09 team still did not find valuable information underwater.
Another day passed, and Sutina's heart was bleeding. The cost of using the ship every day was soaring, but the data team still could not find valuable information.
Song Wenbin couldn't understand the underwater data, and he couldn't help much, so he could only worry. Fortunately, Captain Zhang of Xiangyanghong No. 09 has experienced a lot of strong winds and waves and seems very calm. At such times, he often comforts Song Wenbin and tells him to relax, and even invites him to play chess in the captain's room.
On the third day, when Song Wenbin and his trio were sitting in the captain's cabin playing chess with the captain, suddenly, a sailor pushed open the door and broke into the laboratory.
“Captain… there’s news!
"The sailor shouted.
Captain Zhang quickly stood up and asked, "Is there any result?"
"Not underwater news."
The sailor was panting and looking uneasy.
"Isn't it news from under the water? What news is that?" the captain asked in a deep voice.
"It's a fighter jet. A fighter jet is flying over here!" the sailor shouted nervously.
