Gai Yin was tasting coffee in the captain's cabin, when Lamb burst in with a puzzled look on his face and said to him:
"Father, it's very strange. The radar on our ship scanned this circle and found no trace of the sunken ship at all. I suspect that the box was not salvaged here at all!"
Gai Yin took a sip of coffee, put down the cup, and said slowly:
"Lamb, if you want to inherit my salvage boat, you have to study hard, look carefully, and don't jump to conclusions too quickly."
He clicked on the monitoring screen connected to the radar room in the captain's cabin and said:
"Just like what happened with the box this time. In fact, the situation at the bottom of the sea is complicated and anything can happen. There is a small ocean current passing through the area we are searching now. No one is sure whether the box was brought here by the ocean current. …”
Lamb was not really a fool, he nodded thoughtfully.
"What did you think of?"
"If we look in the direction of the ocean current, will we find the sunken ship?" Lamb's eyes lit up.
Previously, all his attention was on Pu Lanlan, but now Zhu Yu had retrieved the box, and Pu Lanlan was obviously more interested in Zhu Yu. However, he saw the value of the silver ingots in the box, and part of his attention had returned to the box.
If you can get some tricks out of it, and you have money, wouldn't beautiful women take the initiative to throw themselves into your arms?
I have at least learned something from my father these years.
Without money, it is difficult to move forward.
After hearing his son's words, Gai Yin nodded slowly and said:
"We can't rush things. Your inference makes sense, but the search here still can't stop. After all, there's more than one possibility. It's also possible that the ship sank and broke into pieces. After all, hundreds of years have passed. Who knows what's there?
Salvaging sunken treasures from the seabed itself is a long process and requires great attention to details, so there is no need to rush. Just follow and learn. "
Gai Yin was naturally happy that his son had made progress and motioned for him to go out and continue to observe the situation in the radar room.
Lamb left the captain's cabin, came to the deck, raised his binoculars and looked at the yacht.
Pu Lanlan and Zhu Yu were still chatting on the deck of the yacht while eating seafood.
Lamb was unwilling, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do at this time and nothing could be changed.
Putting away the telescope, Lamb bit his lip, left the deck, and went to the radar room.
He will eventually inherit this salvage boat - or when he has enough money, he hopes to have his own salvage boat.
At that time, like Zhu Yu, he would sit on the yacht and watch others working for him.
Zhu Yu didn't know that the actions of himself and Pu Lanlan eating seafood had almost completed Lamb's ideological transformation.
What he didn't expect was that Pulanlan's seafood was quite good.
Although it is not said that Cao Dalong and the others are not good at what they do, women are at least more delicate and the things they make are more refined.
In addition, with the beauty by his side, Zhu Yu was not pretentious, so he was naturally more happy while eating and chatting.
Ran Jie and the other three did not show up, and they did not disturb Zhu Yu's romantic luck at this time.
Of course, in Zhu Yu's eyes it wasn't, but in the eyes of Ran Jie and the other three, it was.
At this time, Cao Dalong and the others were in another room, also eating seafood. Cao Dalong whispered while eating:
"Guess how long it will take for the boss to win over this girl?"
"Two days?" Qin Fei made a two sign.
Ran Jie shook his head and said:
"At least five days, the boss doesn't like to be too hasty... Look at that princess, it took a long time."
Zhu Yu heard the words of the three people clearly, and he was a little bit dumbfounded.
Are you a stallion yourself? Why did Ran Jie and the others have this idea after meeting a beautiful girl?
But this Puranlan does have quite a flavor.
At this time, Pulanlan's satellite phone rang.
She wiped her hands helplessly, picked up the phone and answered it.
The call was from the patriarch Pu Shouding.
"Lan Lan, the clan has discussed this matter and decided that this matter is of great importance, so we will send experts over to test the silver ingot. If it is in the batch of supplies shipped by our ancestors, then you will have a great contribution to this matter.
】
If not, it can be considered an unexpected gain, and your contribution is indispensable. "
"Expert? Who will bring it here?" Pu Lanlan was not stupid, she immediately grasped the point of the matter.
"Bring Zhengnan over," Pu Shouding said, "I know you are very wary of him, but don't worry, it's your credit and no one can take it away."
Pu Lanlan's eyes darkened a lot, she smiled and said:
"Patriarch, I have no objection... But if it turns out that these things are indeed the things that the Zhao Song royal family asked our Pu family to transport, then can I choose what to do on my own?"
"Lan Lan, don't think too much about it." Pu Shouding was afraid that Pu Lanlan would give up his game now, so he immediately said:
"If you don't want to, I can ask Zhengnan to go over slowly."
"Forget it, just come here." Pu Lanlan smiled nonchalantly, "It will happen sooner or later. But Patriarch, I hope that I can make my own decisions in my own affairs in the future -"
"Don't worry, you are free to choose whatever you want. As long as you confirm something this time, the family will not only give you a large bonus, but also let you choose the direction of your responsibility in the future!"
"Then..." Pu Lanlan looked at Zhu Yu and then at the big island in the distance, seeming to have made a difficult decision.
She didn't continue talking. Pu Shouding thought she didn't expect it, so he didn't say anything more.
The matter was settled just like that.
Pu Lanlan hung up the phone and saw that Zhu Yu had just finished peeling a big lobster. He raised his head and met Pu Lanlan's eyes. Zhu Yu was polite and waved the shrimp meat to Pu Lanlan.
Pu Lanlan smiled and nodded, and Zhu Yu put the shrimp meat into her bowl.
At this moment, Pu Lanlan made a decision.
After hanging up the phone, Pu Lanlan put the satellite phone aside, walked to the table, sat down, and asked Zhu Yu:
"Mr. Zhu, if I lose my job here, can you take me in?"
"Take you in?" Zhu Yu was a little surprised, waved his hand and said: "How can I take you in? I don't have a position here, and I don't need any assistants or business managers. Your Pu family has a big business, so it won't even be your position. no?"
"I just want to work here!" Pu Lanlan said half-coquettishly, "Look at your big island, I think what Manager Yan Qiang said is right!
If you set up a travel company here to be responsible for domestic tourists coming here to play - you will have an airport and it will be convenient to take off and land. Think about it, how many people will come every year and how much money will be made! "
Zhu Yu waved his hand:
"I haven't thought about it yet. This matter is more complicated...it's too troublesome."
"You can leave it to me!" Pu Lanlan said with a smile: "When I first started working in the Pu family, I was doing reception work.
Later, I gradually became a business manager, and then I traveled all over the world. As you can tell, my Mandarin is pretty good, and so is my English. I can also speak Japanese and German..."
Seeing that Pu Lanlan spoke very formally, Zhu Yu was a little surprised and asked:
"Did something happen to your family? Why do you have to work here?"
He was actually a little wary.
If nothing else, it's unlikely that he would be trusted just by his surname of Pu.
After all, that incident in history really deceived the Chinese people.
Who dares to accept this kind of young man?
Pu Lanlan sighed and said:
"Because of the box of silver you found... now the peach pickers are coming to the Pu family."
"Pu family...is your family so cruel? This is for one of your own!" Zhu Yu didn't understand.
"In a big family, there are always some distant relatives... My father is dead, my mother is not doing anything, and I have no backer. It's as simple as that."
Since he planned to join Zhu Yu anyway, Pu Lanlan simply said, "If the treasures from these sunken ships can be fished out, the Pu family will definitely be able to survive the current crisis and make a comeback.
Then, the person who ultimately promoted this matter will definitely have a greater say in the family.
I am a woman with no background and no one to protect me. How could such a good thing happen to me? "
"Then now...or at the beginning...?" Zhu Yu still didn't understand.
"Of course it's because everyone thought this matter was hopeless at first." Pu Lanlan's tone was full of ridicule:
"The Pu family has been searching for treasure for more than a year or two. It can be said that in the past few decades, the Pu family has searched for treasure at least a dozen times. But they have not been successful. So they don't think there is hope this time."
Pu Lanlan pointed to the salvage boat and said:
"I spent all my savings and built up some connections and favors to hire that boat. Otherwise, do you think I would be willing to smile at Gai Yin?"
"And you, Mr. Zhu, I used my share of the treasure to invite you... Of course, being able to invite you is the most correct decision I have ever made."
Pu Lanlan suddenly thought about it.
How old is this family? It’s okay if they still behave like men are superior to women!
It's better to just follow Zhu Yu!
At least Zhu Yu is very generous to his subordinates and not so harsh.
It’s definitely better than at Pu’s house!
Zhu Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.
Of course, he had no intention of handing over the treasure to the Pu family in the first place, but now that he could hear that the Pu family was not doing things ethically, there was no need to worry.
"Since you are leaving the Pu family, why are you looking for me?" Zhu Yu was a little curious, "With your ability and...with all due respect, and your appearance, it should be very easy to find a job!"
"Because your island is big enough, and I can see that Mr. Zhu you are not that enthusiastic about this matter, so if you leave the tourism here to me, I will have enough room for my development!"
Pu Lanlan knew that if she was not sincere, she would not be able to impress Zhu Yu:
"I'm fed up with being restricted by my family in everything I do, so I want to have a bigger platform and freer room for development!"
"That's a good answer." Zhu Yu nodded. He could see that Pu Lanlan was telling the truth. Also very sincere.
But of course he wouldn't make this decision based on just a few words.
After all, this is a big deal.
"I'll think about it." Zhu Yu ended the topic.
Although a little disappointed, Zhu Yu did not refuse on the spot, and Pu Lanlan felt that there was still hope.
Then, Pullanlan's satellite phone rang again.
Pu Lanlan looked at the number but didn't answer.
Zhu Yu glanced at her and saw that her expression was not good, so he interrupted and said:
"Actually, you can get a domestic number. There are signal towers installed on this island and you can use it."
The phone rang several times and then stopped.
Within a minute, the phone rang again.
"The person you hate?" Zhu Yu asked with interest.
"Pu Zhengnan. He is the one who plans to pick peaches." Pu Lanlan said in a low tone, "It was the clan leader who called me just now. Now he must have heard the news and came to ridicule me."
"This man has no future." Zhu Yu shook his head, "The main thing is to cheer you up and let you take over smoothly. Now I feel like a villain has succeeded, and I am not afraid that you will make some jokes when you hand it over to him. of……"
Pu Lanlan's eyes lit up, but then she shook her head:
"I just want to finish the handover as soon as possible, and then get the clan leader's promise to be free in the future. I don't need to do anything else for the Pu family, and that will be enough. The Pu family... is very troublesome."
Although Zhu Yu was a little curious, he still didn't ask.
The current relationship between the two people has changed from partners to ordinary friends at best. It is not good to have a superficial relationship.
The phone kept ringing, and Pu Lanlan simply cut off the power on the phone.
Sure enough, it’s not good to offend a woman!
"We will meet in a few days." Zhu Yu reminded her.
"When we met, we had you and Gai Yin. No matter how graceless he was, he wouldn't have said those excessive words at that time. He always wanted to lose face."
Pu Lanlan looked a little proud, which looked quite cute at this time.
What a poor man.
This seafood meal actually brought the two people closer together.
The next day, there was no movement from the salvage ship. Pu Lanlan is still on the yacht, and now she is not only cooking seafood, but also starting to cook.
This made Zhu Yu a little embarrassed, so he simply went into the sea.
The place where he could feel the radar scanning was where he found the box, so Zhu Yu simply turned to another place.
His original intention was to find some other seafood for a change.
After all, just eating shrimps, crabs, etc. is not good.
I opened my heavenly eye, searched for it, and found another thing.
It was a gold-plated Buddha statue stuck in a coral reef.
Half a meter high, it should have been golden, but now it has been eroded by sea water, and wrapped in minerals secreted by seabed organisms, it has become part of the coral reef.
If it weren't for Zhu Yu's clairvoyance, he really wouldn't be able to see this thing!
Zhu Yu pried the thing out, hugged it, and then pulled a few handfuls of young leaves from sea plants, then floated up.
"Did you touch something again?" Ran Jie, who was on the deck, looked excited. "Boss, is this gold?"
"It's gold-plated." Zhu Yu waved his hand, "It's not pure gold. Come on, give me a hand!"
When he heard that it was gold-plated, Ran Jie was a little discouraged, but he quickly took the Buddha statue, put it aside, and pulled Zhu Yu up again.
At this time, Pu Lanlan, who heard Zhu Yu's voice inside, came out, saw the Buddha statue, and shouted in surprise:
"Found again? It's great...Mr. Zhu, you are amazing!"
After all, the salvage boat had been working for so long and nothing was scanned. Zhu Yu went into the water twice and harvested twice. No one else had such luck.
If this is not great, then what is great?
Pu Lanlan felt that she was getting closer and closer to the day of freedom!
I originally thought that it might be better to be in charge of a department in the Pu family, but now that I think about it, what a crap!
No woman in the Pu family can finally take charge of the party!
I quit!
