Leng Zhiwen and other divers conducted a careful search around the hull of the San Miguel.
About ten minutes later, a team member finally discovered a hidden entrance to the cabin.
The cabin entrance to this one is obscured by thick sea plants and vines, but its outline can be vaguely seen.
Leng Zhiwen signaled the team members to prepare their tools and start cleaning the entrance. They carefully cut away the vines for fear of damaging the structure of the cabin.
As the seaweed clears away, the entrance is gradually revealed.
Leng Zhiwen was the first to swim towards the entrance. He gently pushed open the hatch, and a dark space appeared in front of them.
The light of the flashlight casts a long shadow in the cabin, and the seawater here seems to be filled with an atmosphere of history and mystery.
The cabin is filled with various rotten or dilapidated items, like an underwater museum.
Then he discovered the raw gems, scattered everywhere like stars in the night sky.
Under the illumination of the searchlight, they all shone brilliantly.
There are also metal handicrafts inlaid with precious stones, and small piles of gold coins, silver ingots, etc.
The subsequent team members also got in. When they saw such a scene, their eyes also showed disbelief and surprise.
Although the seabed could not speak, their expressions said it all.
Everyone's face is filled with excitement and satisfaction. Even if they don't own so much gold and silver, just looking at it will make them feel very happy.
withdraw!
Leng Zhiwen picked up a gold candlestick and made a retreat gesture towards his teammates.
Several people also followed Leng Zhiwen's footsteps, picking up a simple but representative object one after another.
Swim out of the cabin and float towards the sea.
As soon as they surfaced, Han Yangzhou tacitly sent out a small boat to take all the divers including Leng Zhiwen back to the Broken Leaf.
"Captain, there are a lot of treasures in that foreign sunken ship at the bottom of the sea!"
Leng Zhiwen handed the golden candlestick to Han Yangzhou and said excitedly.
The other team members also handed in all the objects they picked up. Gems, gold coins, silver ingots, etc. were all placed on the deck of the Broken Leaf.
Han Yangzhou was also happy for a while, but he still said: "We are all old players, I don't need to explain the rules."
"If you don't follow the rules, you will not only lose your job if you are discovered, but you will also risk being jailed when you return to the country..."
Han Yangzhou would say this several times every time he was salvaging, and the team members would naturally become impatient after hearing it too much.
However, no one will show it, let alone any refutation.
However, Han Yangzhou's worries were unnecessary. Tang Songyuan had clairvoyant vision, and any team member who dared to hide treasures secretly would be seen by him.
In addition, Li Qingying has the ability to see into people's hearts. No one who has a wrong idea or has such thoughts can escape her perception field.
Through the radio station, Han Yangzhou reported the situation to Tang Songyuan on the Pipi Xia and confirmed the salvage plan.
Han Yangzhou meant overall salvage, and Leng Zhiwen determined that the hull of the San Miguel was still strong and suitable for overall salvage.
This will save time, and secondly, it will also greatly reduce the burden on the diving team.
It only took one or two launches to raise the San Miguel.
And the 'exploration' ships from hundreds of years ago also have great historical value.
However, Tang, Song and Yuan vetoed this plan.
He said: "I think it is better to salvage it in batches. According to my understanding, this ship is an exploration ship funded by the Portuguese royal family,"
"In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we only take valuable items and ignore the rest."
"Let the team members search more carefully, and also ask the crew members to keep their mouths tight..."
Tang, Song and Yuan just wanted to hunt for treasure, but they didn't want to have the experience of being asked for gold coins by Spain again.
Not only will it cause a lot of trouble, but it will also waste his precious time.
Han Yangzhou had no choice but to revise the plan and let Leng Zhiwen and others salvage the treasures in the sunken ship in batches.
Although a little helpless, Leng Zhiwen and other divers still respected Tang Songyuan very much.
First of all, the diving abilities of Tang, Song and Yuan far exceeded them.
Based on this alone, his status in the hearts of the diving team members cannot be shaken. This industry still respects the strong.
Secondly, Tang Songyuan also gave the diving team the highest salary. Their salary was second only to Han Yangzhou, the captain of the Broken Leaf and the captain of the salvage team.
After taking a short rest, Leng Zhiwen and others replaced the oxygen bottles and entered the water again.
The floating gondola also came over and lowered the gondola at the designated location, ready to receive the underwater treasure.
On the Pipi Shrimp.
Tang, Song and Yuan leisurely controlled the Sea Fish Squadron and the Bird Squadron and began to search the waters in the direction of America.
Marine fish mainly search the seabed areas along major shipping routes. Although the number of seabirds is small,
But their flight speed is faster, and their main targets are islands in the Atlantic Ocean.
Maybe you can find a treasure trove of some great pirate on some uninhabited desert island.
By then it will be impossible to finish moving, not at all...
At this time, Tang Songyuan was thinking whether it was time for him to buy a bigger yacht.
Or buy some all-terrain mechanical dogs specifically for carrying things for yourself?
More than an hour later, the first batch of sunken treasures was salvaged from the water.
The floating crane of the Qiuci steadily placed the huge gondola on the deck of the Broken Leaf.
A worker held a hammer and knocked open the metal buckle at the bottom of the hanging basket, and then informed the Qiuci's boom master through the intercom.
The crane arm immediately rose, and the various gold handicrafts in the basket were scattered on the deck with a clanging sound.
The utensils this time are not fragile, so there is no need to pay attention to delicate operation.
How to save trouble.
"Wow~!"
"It's all gold! Haha..."
When the workers saw so many golden and heavy gold products, they all made sounds of surprise and excitement.
Han Yangzhou was also pleasantly surprised, but he still said: "Stop worrying, collect them quickly and put them in the warehouse."
Then, he arranged for several workers to salvage the buoy.
These pontoons were brought into the seabed by Leng Zhiwen and others, and they contained uncut gemstones of various colors, large and small.
There are also many amber and beeswax.
Han Yangzhou arranged for workers to collect them by category, clean them briefly, and then put them into the warehouse on the second floor of the ship.
After a while, Leng Zhiwen and others returned to the Broken Leaf again.
One of the team members was holding a long wooden box with exquisite patterns in his hand.
Leng Zhiwen handed it to Han Yangzhou with a smile and said, "Captain, Xiao Hu found this thing in the compartment of a cabin,"
"It's very well hidden. It might be some great treasure. Why don't we open it now and take a look..."
...
