"You are simply a genius!"

Li Qingying shined a flashlight on the smooth cave wall and praised: "How did you come up with such a wonderful trick as using crabs to dig tunnels?"

Tang Songyuan chuckled and said: "Just average, third in the world."

"I ask people to make the best use of their abilities, to make the best use of things, and to use all available power."

Li Qingying laughed softly and said, "Don't come here. I think if I give you a shovel, you can probably dig it out in just one night."

"You alone can at least hold up to a hundred king crabs..."

Tang Songyuan's face stiffened for a moment, and he said quietly: "Your metaphor feels a bit like a curse."

Li Qingying smiled and said: "No, I am complimenting you."

While talking, the two of them had reached the end of the passage.

As soon as you catch your eye, you can see several large boxes at the outermost edge of the underground treasure cave.

Made of oak, reinforced with rivets and iron bars, it contains various gold and silver coins.

Made in England, the Netherlands, and Portugal.

Further inside are various gold bars, silver ingots, and hundreds of exquisite pieces of porcelain...

These porcelains are not porcelain from the sea, and have not been corroded by sea salt.

The time that has been buried on this uninhabited island for hundreds of years is still as fresh as ever, but with a little more charm of the years.

It is a true heritage porcelain with high historical and artistic value.

Each of them is a work of art, both in shape and painting. It can be seen how attentive the craftsmen at that time were.

Although both of them were extraordinary people who had experienced strong winds and waves, it was their first time to see such a rich treasure.

Those neatly stacked gold bars and silver ingots, as well as gold and silver jewelry inlaid with various gemstones, shone under the light of the flashlight, shining with an intoxicating light.

The two of them seemed to be in a mountain of gold and silver, and their breathing became rapid involuntarily.

My heart was filled with shock and surprise, and I even forgot to speak for a moment. .

After a long time, Tang Songyuan opened one of the boxes.

The lock on the box was already covered with rust, so Tang Songyuan opened it easily without exerting much force.

Just like what he saw in his clairvoyance vision, the box was filled with gold coins.

This is a golden guinea and a half guinea minted by the British. The reason why it is called Guinea is

It was because in the mid-17th century, Britain began to use machines to mint coins, and the gold used to make gold coins originally came from the Guinea region of West Africa.

Later, this naming method was also followed to various British colonies.

This gold was probably cast from the gold wealth plundered by the British colonists, and then robbed by Zheng Yinan, a big pirate.

It was eventually buried here by Zheng Yinan, and it was finally seen again today.

Tang Songyuan stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful, feeling a heavy sense of satisfaction in his hand.

It is the satisfaction of having wealth at your fingertips.

He turned his palm over, and the gold coins in his hand slipped from his palm and fell back into the box, making a sweet and clear sound of jingling bells.

Li Qingying also calmed down from her excitement and excitement, and she said:

"What I'm worried about now is how to move these treasures back to the Pipi Shrimp."

"Do you really want to move them one by one?"

The Pipi Shrimp can only dock at most about fifty meters away from the uninhabited island, and there is a risk of running aground any further.

Tang Songyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Then we have to move it. Didn't you just say that I can hold up to a hundred king crabs?"

"It's time to show you the real technology..."

With that said, Tang Songyuan closed the box filled with gold Guinea coins, then squatted down and picked up the wooden box.

"Oh~! It's quite heavy..."

Tang Songyuan sighed and strode out of the cave.

Such a box of gold coins weighs no less than one ton, but it is only a little heavy for Tang Songyuan's physical fitness after four times of strengthening.

Li Qingying looked at his back with a look of surprise and joy in her eyes.

This was the first time she intuitively felt the power of Tang Song Yuan.

She could clearly sense the weight of the box of gold coins, but seeing that Tang Songyuan carried it out of the cave with no effort at all, where was his limit?

Immediately, she picked up a dozen gold bars from the ground and held them in her arms. Following Tang Songyuan's footsteps, she trotted to the shore.

At this time a new problem arose.

The Pipi Shrimp cannot dock. It is still dozens of meters away from the shore, and there is still a small section of sea in between.

The island is uninhabited and has no dock. The motorboats and rubber boats equipped on the Pippi Shrimp cannot bear the weight of this box of gold coins, which weighs more than a ton.

Should we pour out the gold coins from the box and transport them in batches?

While Li Qingying was thinking about this problem, Tang Songyuan had already thought of a countermeasure.

I saw him still carrying the box and walking straight towards the water. One foot had already stepped into the sea water. He strode forward, and soon the sea water was over his head.

Li Qingying looked at this scene blankly, and a thought flashed in her mind:

He walked across from the bottom of the sea, but could he jump directly onto the Pipi Shrimp from the bottom of the sea?

This is no longer something that humans can do, right?

A few minutes later, Tang Songyuan successfully arrived at the seabed directly below the Pipi Shrimp. He gently put down the oak box and then surfaced.

Climbing onto the Pipi Shrimp, I found a thick and strong rope from the cabin.

After diving back into the water with the rope, Tang Songyuan spent two or three minutes tying up the oak box.

So that’s it!

Li Qingying felt suddenly enlightened.

Sure enough, manpower is limited, but imagination is unlimited.

Tang Songyuan returned to the Pipi Shrimp again,

He stood at the stern of the ship, grabbed the end of the rope in his hand, and pulled hard with both arms.

Soon, he pulled up the oak box filled with gold coins.

Then he moved the oak box into the cabin in one go.

Returning to the uninhabited island, this time Tang Songyuan brought a rubber boat.

Li Qingying was not idle either. She went in and out several times and also brought out a lot of gold bars and piled them on the shore.

Tang Songyuan put the gold bars on the rubber boat and joked: "Now I will let you know the strength of a crab."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Qingying saw twenty king crabs crawling ashore under the control of Tang Songyuan, and lined up to get into the newly dug tunnel.

When they came out again, each king crab had a gold bar stuck in its big claw.

They walked out of the cave sideways, walked to the kayak, and put the gold bars in.

Li Qingying looked at the twenty gold bars in her arms and fell into deep thought.

According to what she just said, is she equivalent to ten crabs?

How abominable, letting him pretend again...
