Speaking of this, Nemo agreed after thinking about it.

He really didn't believe that Zhu Yu could find the treasure.

After signing the agreement, Zhu Yu immediately asked Ran Jie and several others to come over and board the ship, and at the same time brought his belongings to the ship.

After Nemo received the deposit, he listened to Zhu Yu's arrangements with peace of mind and drove the boat to the designated location.

"The water here is not deep, only a few dozen meters. Why not artificially launch the water to salvage it?"

Not only Nemo had this question, but Ran Jie and the others also had this question.

Zhu Yu didn't explain it to them, but the fact was actually very simple.

Under the thick mud under the water, hundreds of thousands of gold coins are scattered in an area nearly half the size of a football field!

If these gold coins are salvaged manually, how long will it take?

What's more important is that under the water of tens of meters, Zhu Yu and the others are novice divers. Not only will the fishing be tiring, but they will also be in danger easily.

How convenient it is to use a salvage boat!

The hair dryer and winch-like equipment blew away the thick sand on the seabed, and then sucked up the gold coins. All Zhu Yu and the others had to do was sort them.

"Ran Jie, you go to the operation room and learn how to operate the equipment; Qin Fei, Dalong, you two follow the workers to collect the treasures."

Zhu Yu himself was in the control room, directing the ship in which area to start construction.

Because it was only rented for one day, Zhu Yu immediately asked Nemo to start work.

Nemo accepted the money, and his professional ethics were still good. He immediately ordered the workers on the ship to start turning on the radar, put down the equipment, start the underwater robot, bring the camera, and start blowing sand and digging.

The thick seabed sand was blown away, but nothing was seen underneath.

Nemo saw the images coming back from the camera and said to Zhu Yu:

"There are a large number of treasure hunters who have dived and searched here, but found nothing. Mr. Zhu, it is very possible that you can dig here for a day and find nothing."

Zhu Yu was not moved at all. He has dived and checked this area of ​​the sea several times, and the results are very clear. In this area, under nearly one meter of sea sand, there are at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins!

Of course, this is a very large amount of work, otherwise Zhu Yu would not be able to directly pay US$500,000!

"Half a meter of sea sand has been blown. Do you want to continue?" the operator asked.

"Continue." Before Nemo could answer, Zhu Yu spoke, "Blow further down."

Seeing that Nemo had no objection, the operator continued the operation.

Not long after, the good news came: fragments of the wooden box were found in the blown sand!

Nemo was shocked!

What shocked him even more was that after the fragments of the black wooden box underwater were blown out, further down, gold coins visible to the naked eye appeared in front of the camera!

Although these gold coins have been at the bottom of the sea for so long, some of them have been hardened together by the material in the sea, but more of them are still shining with golden light!

"Sure enough, there is a treasure!" Nemo suddenly looked shocked and filled with jealousy!

I have been here for so long and I haven’t found a single gold coin—this Chinese boy has only been here for half a month and he found the treasure!

Maybe there's only one box of gold coins?

Nemo comforted himself. There were hundreds of gold coins in a box. This Chinese boy should have found such a box of gold coins, which was just enough to pay for his boat charter.

After these gold coins are absorbed, the next job becomes simple. Zhu Yu only needs to be responsible for pointing in the general direction, and the remaining radar on the ship can scan it.

More and more wooden boxes containing gold coins were discovered, and more and more gold coins were sucked up.

Qin Fei and Cao Dalong, who were working in the recovery cabin, supervised the workers sorting the gold coins and packing them into boxes. There were packing boxes on the ship, and Zhu Yu simply asked someone to buy them, which Nemo didn't refuse.

I don’t need it anyway.

Box after box - there are more and more boxes containing gold coins in the ship. At first, the workers were very excited. After all, they were professional salvage workers. How could they not be excited when they saw these treasures?

But then, more and more gold coins were salvaged, and the number of gold coins changed from a few boxes to more than a dozen or dozens of boxes, and they gradually became numb.

Just like the workers in the money printing factory, these gold coins cannot be put in their pockets anyway, so what is the difference between them and sand and stones?

The salvage boat worked until late at night before stopping.

Cao Dalong came over and reported to Zhu Yu quietly:

"Boss, we have salvaged 210,000 3,625 gold coins and put them into 71 boxes - these gold coins are generally smaller and slightly lighter in weight, about five grams each."

The weight of ordinary gold coins is about eight to ten grams. There are also gold coins above twelve grams and five grams, but there are fewer coins below that.

This gold coin is small in weight, but its quantity is superior.

"Okay, let's take turns eating first, and then watch."

Nemo had already gone to rest, and Zhu Yu gave bonuses to those who operated the equipment and the workers, so these talents continued to work.

Zhu Yu had people transport these boxes to the shore overnight through the lifeboats carried on the salvage boat. He was guarding here, Ran Jie was guarding there, and Qin Fei and Cao Dalong were transporting them back and forth.

It was almost dawn before the shipment was completed.

What puzzled Ran Jie and the others was that after the box containing the gold coins was transported here, it finally disappeared, and it was unknown where it was transported by Zhu Yu.

But they didn't ask either. There are too many mysterious things about the boss, so it’s better not to ask.

Even the most curious Cao Dalong didn't speak.

Zhu Yu naturally moved all the boxes containing gold coins into the space.

He originally planned to just tell Ran Jie and others that he had sent someone over to transport it overnight, but they didn't ask and he could save the explanation.

After returning to the boat and having a simple breakfast, Zhu Yu said to Ran Jie and the others:

"Let's work hard and each get a pistol. Today is the most critical day. As long as you persevere today and catch up on your sleep tomorrow, I'll give you a bonus!"

The three of them, Ran Jie, also followed Zhu Yu to absorb the energy. Plus, they were young and strong, so staying up all night was not a big deal.

Nemo got up early and watched numbly as Zhu Yu arranged for his workers to work. The workers were all very happy.

He stopped a person and asked, only to find out that Zhu Yu had given every worker who worked overtime a bonus of one thousand dollars yesterday!

Although one thousand dollars is not much to Nemo, for the workers, they are naturally very happy to get so much money after working one night!

So today, everyone is as energetic as taking a shot of chicken blood!

Even the female operator of the underwater robot couldn't help but wink at Zhu Yu.

It's just that Zhu Yu has no sexual interest in women of this style. His current interest is in those gold coins.

When Nemo arrived at the recovery cabin, he was surprised to find that all the boxes containing gold were gone!

He immediately asked the workers, and the workers said that they had all been transported away last night!

Nemo didn't expect Zhu Yu to move so fast!

It's not like he doesn't have selfish thoughts, like becoming a modern pirate or something.

However, when he saw Qin Fei and Cao Dalong intentionally or unintentionally revealing the pistols on their waists, Nemo gave up this idea.

If the pirates didn't come, if you were killed, then the gain would outweigh the loss.

However, he didn't want Zhu Yu to take away the treasure so smoothly, so he couldn't help but make a call.

Zhu Yu's ears were so sharp, he didn't even get out of Zhu Yu's hearing range when he called.

Zhu Yu didn't expect that this old boy was not honest.

However, he was busy salvaging for the time being, so Zhu Yu didn't care about him. Let’s talk about it later!

Next, they salvaged not only gold coins, but also irregular melted gold nuggets, silver nuggets, and some gems and the like.

Fortunately, these things are packed in boxes. After so many years, although the box has been broken, the contents have basically not escaped from that range.

So salvaging it is relatively simple.

The salvage continued until noon, when Zhu Yu announced that the salvage was over!

Today more than fifty boxes of treasure were salvaged!

Zhu Yu first asked Ran Jie to take people to transport the box down, then paid the remaining money to Nemo, and finally gave each worker a bonus of one thousand US dollars before getting off the ship.

As soon as the boat Zhu Yu was riding in left, Nemo immediately shouted to the operator:

"Quick! Keep searching nearby! See if there are any gold coins left! I believe there must be gold coins that have not been mined!"

Zhu Yu's excavation work stopped suddenly, so Nemo felt that Zhu Yu must have thought that he was almost done digging. Or the remaining areas were not detected.

But the boat is your own!

Nemo felt that there must be treasures in the nearby sea that had not been dug out!

Even if you only dig out one box, it’s enough to get rid of your debt and let you hunt for treasures freely!

However, the radar scanned for a long time, and except for scattered metal fragments, there was no large metal reaction at all!

Nemo tore his hair desperately and said crazily:

"This is impossible! This is impossible! He doesn't have any precise equipment at all. How can he know the range of gold coins so accurately? This is impossible..."

This is equivalent to hunting in a dark jungle. You bring a shotgun with a night vision scope. The opponent is basically unarmed, but in the end the opponent hits the prey, but you get nothing!

This unscientific!

Zhu Yu didn't pay attention to Nemo's unscientific behavior. He took the box back to the place where the tent was stationed and set up a large tent to store the box. He looked at the box in the tent and let Ran Jie and the three of them rest.

Naturally, it was impossible for Ran Jie and the other three to let Zhu Yu guard so many things by himself. One of them stayed with Zhu Yu to guard them all the time - Zhu Yu said that someone would come and take these things away at night.

When people in the village and nearby treasure hunters saw that Zhu Yu and the others had brought back so many boxes, they naturally knew that these might be treasures, so there was a sensation!

The treasure that so many people had not found was found by Zhu Yu. How could this not be a sensation?

Local authorities were immediately on the island.

Verification and tax collection.

Zhu Yu didn't resist and paid the tax in an orderly manner. The local people are also very happy about this. After paying the tax, they don't care about the rest.

Just when Ran Jie and others began to worry about the safety of so many treasures, the box was quietly "carried" away by Zhu Yu that night.

"Boss, aren't we leaving yet?" The next morning, Ran Jie and others were relieved when they saw that the box was no longer there. Ran Jie asked during breakfast.

"There is still an important thing that has not been dug out. Once it is dug out, we will leave."

Zhu Yu replied.

Last night, Ran Jie and the others all slept, but Zhu Yu did not. In the second half of the night, he did not ask Ran Jie and the others to keep watch. Instead, he waited until there was no one around, and then he put away all the gold coin boxes.

Now that he had nothing to do, Zhu Yu wanted to catch up on some sleep.

After sleeping for a long time, in the afternoon, Zhu Yu took Ran Jie and others to the north of the island, then waved the shovel and started digging.

Someone from the village came to ask, and Zhu Yu said that he thought there was something down here.

Some people didn't believe it, while others believed it, and then started digging not far from Zhu Yu and the others.

If it's a large area of ​​treasure, you might be able to drink some soup if you dig nearby.

Cao Dalong wanted to stop him, but Zhu Yu didn't let him go. The four of them dug a hole together.

Many people were watching the excitement outside, and some were filming and live broadcasting with their mobile phones.

Zhu Yu and the others didn't care. The sand was easy to dig. When they dug to a depth of more than two meters, Zhu Yu's shovel hit a hard object.

Ran Jie and others immediately followed Zhu Yu to dig out the hard object.

This is a small box with a length, width and height of no more than thirty centimeters.

The box is made of stone, but it is very beautifully made, with simple patterns on the front and sides.

After digging the box, Zhu Yu immediately carried the box to the ground, and then said to Ran Jie:

"Stop this mess."

People nearby immediately asked:

"What's in here? Open it and take a look!"

"That's right! What could be in this?"

Those with sharp eyes saw that it was a stone box and immediately understood why it had not been found by the treasure hunters.

Zhu Yu pretended not to hear these people's requests.

The contents of this box were too contrary to common sense, so Zhu Yu had no intention of taking them out.

He wants to go back and study it carefully.

Filling the hole was much faster than digging the soil. Soon, the hole was filled, and Zhu Yu, escorted by Ran Jie and others, left the Beidao beach and walked to the tent.

On the way, someone stopped Zhu Yu and wanted to see what he was holding, but Cao Dalong drove him away.

This is the time when force needs to be shown.

Returning to the tent, Zhu Yu put the box into his backpack, and then said to Ran Jie and the others:

"Now pack your things and let's go!"

There were no boats leaving the island at this time.

But this didn't bother Zhu Yu. He directly found the locals in the village, spent a thousand dollars, hired their fishing motor boat, and left the island.

Although this boat is not considered an ocean-going fishing boat, it can still travel dozens of nautical miles without any problem.

It was an hour after Zhu Yu and the others left that the treasure hunters were moved.

They never expected that Zhu Yu and the others would leave in a hurry after digging out the things.

After all, there are no passenger ships now. In their minds, even if Zhu Yu and the others leave, it won't be until tomorrow.

Originally, some people planned to bring their things to visit Zhu Yu and the others, but when they arrived, they found that the tent was there and no one was there!

Fixed thinking harms people!

And Nemo also didn't notice Zhu Yu and the others leaving.

He also searched for treasure in the nearby sea.

After Zhu Yu and the others caught something, Nemo called one of his "acquaintances" and told him the news.

That person took a boat and waited nearby to intercept them.

After all, there are more than a hundred boxes of things, and the boat will definitely not be able to transport them.

Passenger ships are even worse.

So his goal is the big ship.

This time, they waited until Zhu Yu and the others left. This person had not yet waited for the arrival of the big ship.
