fisherman legend

Chapter 650 Benefits and Rewards

Most of the ships from various countries passing through the Strait of Malacca are not too fast.The strait itself is relatively narrow, and if the speed of the ship is too fast, it is easy to collide.Even when the fishermen's fleet slowed down, no one thought there was anything wrong.

In addition, the ocean-going fishing boats return with a full load of fish, so the waterline of the fishing boats is naturally relatively deep.In this case, if the fleet slowed down, the passing ships would only think that these ships should have carried a lot of cargo.

But only the No. [-] ship of the Fisherman's Fleet, most of the crew members on board watched the security team's actions.Although I don't know why the security team threw the salvage basket into the sea before, they all acted as spectators.

After the cable was dropped, the security team stood by the cable, waiting quietly for something.After a while, a security team soon saw that the guard's cable was suddenly tightened, as if something heavy was hanging from the other end.

Seeing this scene, Hong Wei immediately said: "Tie the cable fast!"

"Yes!"

The security team guarding the cable quickly tied the other end to the side of the ship.He also felt very strenuous when he briefly pulled it before, and he thought that the thing tied to the other end of the rope should be heavy.

Next, every few minutes, a security team member quickly tied up the guard's cable.Although the security team and the crew were curious about what was on the other end of the cable, they also knew that this was not the time to pull the rope.

Until all the cables thrown down before were tied up, Hong Wei also said directly: "Raise your vigilance. Once you find a patrol ship approaching, remember to report it immediately. Without my order, no ship is allowed to approach our fleet."

"understand!"

There is a fishing boat at the front and rear as flankers, and the first boat can sail more safely.Just when everyone thought that Zhuang Haiyang was about to return to the ship, Hong Wei received another call, and Zhuang Haiyang did not return to the ship for the time being.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Zhuang Haiyang naturally wants to explore how many valuable shipwrecks there are in this strait.When passing through the strait in the future, it may be possible to find the right opportunity to salvage these valuable sunken ships.

It may be difficult to give the corresponding salvage location for the sunken items salvaged.But as far as the current situation is concerned, as long as it is not too sensitive, Zhuang Haiyang also believes that the company can sell it successfully.

Many salvaged items only need to be safely transported back to China.How to sell it in the future, or how to fabricate the location of a sunken ship, is up to Zhuang Haiyang, and no one else can find out if they want to investigate!

Moreover, how to distinguish the attribution and ownership of shipwreck items such as precious metals or gemstones?
It has to be said that Mr. Wang's analysis is correct, and the number of sunken ships in the Strait of Malacca is indeed not small.Zhuang Haiyang has indeed found many sunken ships with extremely high salvage value.However, he only remembered the location and did not salvage it.

Salvaging some back every time, as an additional benefit for the fleet, will not attract too many people's attention.Shipwreck items such as precious metals are traded with domestic banks.Gold and silver are hard currencies!
When the fleet left the Strait of Malacca and the sky was about to brighten, Zhuang Haiyang finally returned to the ship in anticipation of everyone.As soon as he boarded the boat, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and said, "Lao Hong, find a relatively safe place and pull everything up!"

"Okay! This time, I'm afraid I found something good again?"

"Hey! That's natural. The things I fished out, can't it be good? It's just that these things can only give you some extra benefits. The real big head is still mine. Do you have any opinions?"

"That's okay! With this kind of extra benefits, we are already very satisfied. You go and change your clothes first, and I will take care of the rest."

After confirming that there were no ships passing by around the fleet, Hong Wei quickly found the crew, a group of several people untied the cables, and began to pull the carrying basket tied to one end of the rope, which had been sunk in the sea before.

When the first basket of things was pulled onto the boat, many team members said in surprise: "My dear! What did I say, why is it so heavy? It turned out to be this thing. This basket is probably worth a lot, right?"

"Okay! I'm just doing something in a daze, and I haven't put the things back in the utility compartment for storage. Remember, you didn't see anything. These things were salvaged from the ocean. However, he said that he would give extra We give benefits."

"Understood!"

After being shocked, many crew members realized that they didn't do anything to salvage these things now.To be precise, the crew of the other two ships may not have known about this.

If they have to take a share of the salvaged items, it seems a bit excessive.Taking an extra benefit may be the fairest distribution.In a sense, this can be regarded as a hush money!
The iron baskets dropped earlier were all pulled onto the boat one after another.The contents of each basket shocked the crew.Only now did they understand why Zhuang Haiyang worked so hard to salvage these things.

The contents of each basket are all refined gold or silver, and there is more gold in it.If nothing else, the gold piled up to be at least one or two tons.The value of gold in tons can be imagined.

Apart from emotion, the crew also knew that only Zhuang Haiyang could earn this kind of money.In their words, let alone such a treasure ship cannot be found.Even if found, how to salvage it in a busy waterway?
"Awesome! I have to say that the fisherman's handwriting is really getting better and better."

"Yeah! Our boat didn't stop before. I really don't know how he tied so many baskets to the rope. The most important thing is that this basket is at least several hundred catties. How did he lift it up from the bottom of the sea and tie the rope up?"

"What do you want to do so much? Although we can't share it, if we can get an extra bonus, that's money for nothing!"

While admiring Zhuang's sharp ocean salvage methods, most of the crew had no idea about the share.If it's not their money, it would be too greedy to share a portion of it.They are very happy to have a bonus.

Now they go back and forth to Asanyang twice a month, and they earn more money than other comrades who stay on the farm or ranch.It is said that one must be content, if such a high-paying job is not satisfying, what else do they want to do?
On the contrary, Zhuang Haiyang, seeing the salvaged gold and a small amount of silver, said with a little emotion: "Time is limited, and I don't want a lot of silver ingots on that sunken ship. It's a pity to pick all the gold."

"Okay! Don't act like a good boy when you get cheap. If you can get this gold, you should laugh."

"That's true! However, there are still some good things under these baskets. If you like it, you can pick one for your wife later. But, this time, you won't have your share of the benefits?"

"What good stuff?"

After hearing Zhuang Haiyang's words, Hong Wei and others also became interested.I often go to sea and don't stop at the ports along the way. Naturally, I can't prepare any gifts for my wife or family.If there are good things, they don't mind giving away some.

Zhuang Haiyang, who didn't say it directly, quickly picked up the gold on a carrying basket, and when the gold nuggets on it were removed, colorful gemstones soon appeared at the bottom of the carrying basket.

"Hold a grass, is this a gem?"

"Hmm! How about you pick one? Take it back as a gift to your wife. I believe it will be very face-saving, right?"

To Zhuang Haiyang's surprise, Hong Wei shook his head directly and said, "No, the price of each gemstone like this is not low. If you really want to take one back, it's hard to explain."

"Don't talk nonsense! Each person picks one, hurry up. This gem may be a valuable thing to others. But to us, it's nothing? My family has a bunch of these things!"

All right!After uttering such strong words, Hong Wei, Zhu Junhong and others couldn't laugh or cry.It's just that they knew that Zhuang Haiyang, who often practiced at the bottom of the sea, probably picked up quite a few gems like this.

And the ancient times on the Asanyang side are also considered to be an important gem producing area.In fact, when Concubine Li got married, Zhuang Haiyang asked a famous craftsman to carve jewelry, and many precious and rare gemstones were engraved on it.

It can be seen that what Zhuang Haiyang said is really not a lie!
Seeing that Zhuang Haiyang's expression did not seem to be fake, Zhu Junhong finally smiled and said: "Okay, since you are so generous, then I don't need to be polite to you. I will pick a ruby ​​and make a necklace for my wife when I go back. It's for her." birthday present."

With Zhu Junhong taking the lead, Hong Wei had better pick a sapphire.No matter what kind of gemstone it is, if it is sold outside, I believe the price of these natural gemstones should not be cheap, at least it is worth more than the bonus.

Just when the two picked out the gemstones they wanted, Zhuang Haiyang took back the gemstones they picked, and picked a bigger one from the basket and handed them to them.The color is the same, but the size is bigger, and the value is undoubtedly greater.

For such benefits, the two had no choice but to accept it in the end.In fact, as Zhuang Haiyang's most trusted and close confidants, they also know a lot of Zhuang Haiyang's secrets.Making money may not be the most important thing anymore.

What's more, they have already managed this job as a business, and they also hope that this business can continue to operate.They even knew one thing, that is, only when Zhuang Haiyang lived well could they live well.

One prospers and one loses all, perhaps it is more in line with their way of getting along with Zhuang Haiyang!

In fact, when he returned to the farm, Zhuang Haiyang also specially picked some gems and distributed them to the key personnel of the fleet as an extra benefit.Ordinary crew members also get a good bonus.

All in all, for this batch of salvaged gold, the bank that had previously traded with Zhuang Haiyang also offered a good price.As for the gems, they are sent to the salvage company, and they choose the auction house to auction them off.

Zhuang Haiyang also gave a few extra gemstones that were truly top-quality and rare.As for other relatively common gemstones, although the selling price is not high, they can be considered as extra income.Zhuang Haiyang really didn't care much about the value!
