Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 1687 Tarpon

Before 1980, Miami was almost entirely white territory.

By the end of 1980, white people made up 80% of Miami's total population.

By the first half of this year (1982), the number of white people in Miami had almost fallen below 50% of the total population.

Moreover, those who were genuine Gorba people, or people from other countries who came under the guise of Gorba people, started moving from Miami to the whole of Florida.

Robbery, theft, pornography, smuggling, drug trafficking, and conflicts and fights between gangs over business and territory began to spread throughout Florida.

The decline in law and order brought about by these people has led to a decrease in the white population of Florida, similar to that in Miami.

Han Li hadn't finished reading it yet when the plane swooped down onto the airport runway. The inertia of landing made him put the magazine down temporarily.

First-class passengers have priority boarding and disembarking. As Han Li boarded the shuttle bus with the help of the flight attendant, the economy class passengers had just heard the announcement asking them to wait.

When Han Li walked out of the airport and took a taxi to the hotel, he saw that a large part of the people walking on the streets of Miami were Black, mixed-race, and Latino.

On the way from the airport to the hotel Han Li had chosen, he saw many, many scantily clad women standing by the roadside.

Besides taxis, these women would sway their bodies and wave at drivers whenever a car passed by, and some would even make very explicit and bold gestures.

Furthermore, the situation in Miami is really chaotic right now; Han Li has witnessed several clashes involving fists and sticks along the way.

That's nothing compared to what Han Li saw. He also saw some people carrying rifles and submachine guns on the street. Although they tried to conceal them with their clothes, the temperature in Miami was nearly 30 degrees Celsius, and most people were dressed quite lightly. Their behavior was almost like burying their heads in the sand.

Keep in mind that the taxis heading to the Biltmore Hotel mostly travel along Miami's main streets, not in some remote corner or deserted suburb.

Although Han Li knew this place was chaotic, he hadn't expected it to be like this.

This made Han Li involuntarily think of the chaotic Black State and the Middle East. It was hard to imagine that this was Miami, the United States, the presidential retreat, the gathering place of the rich and celebrities in the future.

At the same time, I also understand why the saying "Folklore does not support idlers; a person can live, but cannot be without work" circulates on the internet in later generations. There are reasons for this.

However, Han Li didn't care about this; whether the foreigners were chaotic or not was none of his business.

They wouldn't care even if a base number of people disappeared every day due to the fighting; they would only be slightly surprised to see it.

After checking into the hotel, Han Li didn't go out again. He went to the restaurant to eat something first, and when he returned to his room, he asked the waiter for a map of Miami, as well as some recent newspapers and magazines.

Miami at this time of year is just unbearable. The hotel Han Li is staying at is very high-end and very expensive, but who would have thought that someone would call him in the middle of the night?

Han Li hung up the phone with a sour expression, inwardly criticizing the hotel's management, saying it was completely unworthy of the money paid by the guests.

The next day, when Han Li checked out, he directly complained to the hotel's lobby manager about what had happened the previous night.

Although Han Li did not refuse the VIP card offered by the lobby manager, he decided never to come to this hotel again. After leaving the hotel, Han Li took a taxi directly to the nearest beach and pier.

Speaking of which, Han Li's luck was pretty good today. After arriving at a coffee shop at the dock, before he could even subtly inquire about the "Saving Treasure" company, he learned about their situation from the conversation between the two people at the next table.

The Treasure Hunt Company is quite well-known in the waters around Florida, but this reputation doesn't come from their search for and salvage of shipwrecks.

Instead, the Treasure Company took advantage of the fact that the United States and Cuba were not paying much attention to human smuggling during this period. Under the guise of treasure hunting, they were secretly engaged in human trafficking.

The two men said that the Treasure Company had made a lot of money from this, otherwise they wouldn't have replaced it with a bigger ship this spring.

After learning about the situation from these two people, Han Li had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

Next, Han Li went to one of the largest yacht rental companies near the pier. Although his Hong Kong yacht driving license was invalid here, with this license and a substantial deposit, he was able to successfully rent a medium-sized yacht.

After receiving the yacht keys, Han Li purchased some drinks, alcohol, and ingredients at the dockside shop, bought a set of sea fishing gear, and then set off.

When Han Li had sailed his yacht far away from the dock and completely entered the waters off Florida, he stopped the boat.

He lowered the anchor, put on sunglasses and a hat, opened a bottle of iced drink, took out his fishing gear, and struck a pose as if he were fishing.

After Han Li launched the fishing rod, he unleashed his mental energy.

Han Li quickly selected several large silver carp from among the fish swimming below the boat and took them into the vast Peach Blossom Paradise Sea.

Next, catch these big trevally and use the basic animal breeding technique to subdue them. The final step is to throw them back into the sea, letting them scatter in the surrounding waters to search for traces of the shipwreck.

After Han Li finished doing all this, he fixed the fishing rod to the yacht, got up and returned to the yacht's living room. He took out a tea set from the disintegration space and spring water from the vast Peach Blossom Spring, and began his life of drinking tea, reading and studying.

Although the giant tarpon is among the top ten fastest swimming fish, reaching speeds of 56 kilometers per hour, it would still take a long time to find traces of the "Lady Attoca" shipwreck in such a large area of ​​the ocean.

The sea breeze and waves made the yacht rise and fall on the sea. Han Li was focused on reading a book on board, and when he got hungry, he would get something to eat.

Han Li's calm and composed state was broken around 4 p.m.

Han Li sensed that one of the large tarpon had returned and was now swimming continuously in the seawater at the bottom of the ship.

Han Li extended his mental energy and once again absorbed the giant tilapia into the vast Peach Blossom Paradise.

After a brief conversation, Han Li smiled and threw it back into the sea.

Yes, the giant tarpon brought back news of a shipwreck, and also found scattered gold and jewels in the surrounding area.

While it's not yet certain whether the shipwreck is the "Lady Atoca," having a target is worth investigating; even if it's not the final destination, it's still an extra bonus.
