The cigarette held in the corner of Erwazi's mouth fell unconsciously.
Six figures!
This is definitely a huge windfall for him, a person who runs boats all year round.
The old father at home is bedridden and has no financial resources, so the mother can only do some small business nearby to support the family.
It can be said that he is now the only pillar of the family.
He looked Lin Yi up and down, and then looked at the people behind him.
Out of caution, he asked a few more questions.
"What do you want me to do?"
Lin Yi smiled.
"We want you to take us to this!"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Erwazi's neck.
"Looking for this?" Erwazi stretched out his hand and took out the "Western King's Merit Coin" and shook it.
Lin Yi nodded.
"We have professional diving equipment, just take us there."
"That's what you do?"
"right."
Erwazi rolled his eyes and immediately stuffed the money into his collar.
"It's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
Lin Yi reached out and gave Erwazi a high-five, and the matter was settled.
"Okay, after twelve o'clock tonight, we will meet at the pier, and I will take you there in a small boat."
After saying that, he took the mobile phone handed over by Lin Yi and left his number.
At this moment, the cruise ship also arrived at its destination. The boss of the ship called the crew to anchor, and Erwazi hurried over to help.
"Old Lin, you are really capable now, Mr. Qian, how can you give away one hundred thousand yuan without blinking an eye?"
"Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang, you don't know something. Senior brother, this is called 'killing three birds with one stone'. Part of this money is labor, part is information fees, and part is hush money. Of course, it also includes part of the money for I care about this kid’s family situation.”
"Why is the information fee so expensive? One hundred thousand for the asking price? It's not easy for us to make some money. How can we afford to spend it like this? I'm not telling you, Lao Lin, let's show off our extravagance, but there are occasions, right? What this kid said It’s not certain whether what he said is the truth.”
Wang Qiang's stingy habit has really not improved at all. When he heard Lin Yi open his mouth and promise to pay him 100,000 yuan in labor fees, it was just like using a knife to cut out his flesh. At this moment, his heart was bleeding.
Lin Yi patted his shoulder nonchalantly.
"Look at you, this 'Luo Shi's Physiognomy' is really useless. When it's time for you to observe the words and colors, you can't see anything.
I'll make a note of this for you first, and when I get back, I'll let you take care of me.
Let me ask you something right now, does Erwazi himself know the value of this 'Xi Wang reward money'? "
Lin Yi's words stopped Wang Qiang.
"The King of the West's Reward Money" had just come out, and the gold coins fetched 2.6 million, and the silver coins fetched a high price of 550,000.
No matter how much the value drops now, it is still worth two to three hundred thousand.
Erwazi has been making a living in this country all year round. Even if you don't study the story of "Jiangkou Sinking Silver", you must have heard it.
What's more, the Internet is so developed now that a lot of information can be found with just one lookup.
If the place where he found the silver coins was a "heavy silver area" that has not been officially discovered, the value of this information cannot be measured by six figures.
Wang Qiang's mind finally turned around and he suddenly smiled.
"Blame me, blame me, I didn't think well. But if it was just an accident that he dug up silver coins, wouldn't our money have been wasted?"
"Judging from his appearance, words, and demeanor, I think Erwazi is a man of friendship. Third child, what do you think, Lulu?"
"Brother is right. Although this child is a bit philistine, he is still a loyal and honest child overall and has no harmful intentions."
Qian Sheng strongly agreed with Lin Yi's opinion.
Bai Lu didn't think so.
"I think this silver coin may be his 'bait'. When I came here for interviews in the past, there were local boatmen holding 'Dashun Tong Bao' and fake 'Xi Wang Merit Coins' to seduce him. Tourists make money by renting their diving equipment and diving into the water to 'catch gold'.
I think this kid should have also used this trick, and it's even better than those people back then. "
When Wang Qiang heard this, he was immediately shaken.
"Old Lin, why don't we talk to him about the price, get a discount, or sign a contract, and we'll pay in installments. If we don't find anything, we'll give him the final payment or something."
Lin Yi was unmoved.
"I believe in my vision. We will find out tonight whether the willing person takes the bait or not."
The morning tour ended quickly. We saw everything we needed to see and did some shopping around.
Not much more useful information was collected.
I don't know why the southern faction is so persistent. I must come to the scene of 'Eguchi Chen Yin'.
After the fifth brother said goodbye to the boat boss, got off the cruise ship and returned to the car, the fifth brother spoke.
"Did you gain anything today?"
If Fifth Brother can ask this question, it must mean something.
Besides, he had to follow him the whole time, so there was no need for Lin Yi to hide it from him.
"To be honest, we think the sailor on the ship, Chen Erwa, is quite capable. We plan to follow him to explore the Minjiang Estuary at night again tonight."
Fifth Brother nodded thoughtfully.
"Okay, I'll go with you tonight. Now let's eat."
After drinking and eating, the group went back to catch up on their sleep and regain their energy. After twelve o'clock in the evening, almost all Jiangshan's ships had entered the dock.
The patrol officers have almost gone back to rest.
The area around the pier was deserted, without the bustle of people during the day.
There is only the sound of the river breeze blowing in my face and the waves crashing on the shore.
Lin Yi took out his cell phone and dialed the number left by Chen Erwa. After calling several times, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
Not long after, a small fishing boat sailed up the river.
Without turning on the motor, Yang Fan swung the oar and drove towards them.
After approaching the dock, Chen Erwa jumped up, went to the dock, tied the cable, and guided several people to the boat.
When he saw Fifth Brother, he hesitated for a moment.
"Don't worry, I won't tell your boss about this, let's go!"
Fifth brother patted him on the shoulder and got into the cabin.
A small boat floated on the river. Taking advantage of the wind, the speed was not slow. It quickly passed the ruins of the "Jiangkou Sinking Silver" and gradually moved further and further away.
"Hey, boy, are you lying to us? This place is so far away from that ruins. Where can we find it?"
The fifth brother said nothing. He held his hand on his lower back and came to the stern of the ship. After exchanging a few words with Chen Erwa, he returned to the cabin.
"Don't worry, he won't even dare to borrow his courage."
"The labor and management didn't say that the thing was dug up at the ruins. Why are you panicking?"
"Then where did you dig it out?"
"That's it."
Chen Erwa pointed to the position on the river. Through the moonlight, she could tell that there was a curved waterway. The drop had also increased significantly, and the boat speeded up as it approached.
"There was a wooden boat that was so rotten that it was underwater. I dug it inside."
