Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 332 Picking up leaks in the beautiful country!

San Francisco, Fisherman's Wharf.

"Trust me! It's true! This time I definitely found the Lady Atoka!"

"Do you know what the Lady Atoka is?! That is the most expensive shipwreck in the world! It carried at least 4 tons of gold!"

"I've really located it! It only needs 200 million, 200 million US dollars! Take all the treasures you find!"

Downstairs in the restaurant, a middle-aged man with dark skin and a face full of dimples was yelling.

Let’s call them middle-aged people. Zhao Wenmu actually can’t tell the age of foreigners. Some people look gray-haired and wrinkled, but they may actually be in their early thirties; In fact, he is already six or seventy years old.

Zhao Wenmu was just a little curious at first, but after hearing the "Madame Atoka", he rushed downstairs immediately.

"Sir, I'm very interested in the Lady Atoka you mentioned, would you like to come up and have a meal together?"

Zhao Wenmu invited.

The crowd of onlookers joked.

"Young man, Mr. Mel has been looking for the Lady Atoka for more than ten years, and this is the first time he has said this!"

"How can you defile people's innocence out of thin air! I really found the Lady Atoka this time!"

The middle-aged man called Mr. Mel by everyone hastily retorted.

"Sir, are you really interested in the Lady Atoka?"

Mel looked at Zhao Wenmu suspiciously.

The other party's oriental face is not unobtrusive in San Francisco, a city with a large number of Chinese.

"of course."

Zhao Wenmu replied concisely, and then made an inviting gesture.

"Okay, okay!"

Mel immediately beamed with joy, and followed Zhao Wenmu upstairs.

Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, everyone left one after another.

"They're right, I've been looking for the Lady Atoka for 16 years! But this time I believe I've found the Lady Atoka!"

"You know the Lady Atoka?"

Having said that, Mel looked up at Zhao Wenmu.

"of course."

"In 1622, the Spanish colonists organized several sea ships, preparing to transport a large amount of gold, silver and various treasures looted from the South American colonies back to the country. At that time, sea thieves were rampant. In order to protect these treasures, the Spanish colonists sent Lots of security personnel."

"Unfortunately, the Spanish fleet did not encounter pirates, but encountered a violent hurricane. In the end, the Lady Atoka, which carried the most treasure, was overturned by the waves, and other ships sent personnel to salvage but were all submerged by the waves. Hundreds of years later, many treasure hunters searched for this wreck, but nothing was found."

"Mr. Mel, am I right?"

Zhao Wenmu briefly explained the sinking of the Lady Atoka, not only expressing his opinion to Mel, but also explaining the whole story to Zhao Wenqiu and others.

"Yes, Mr. Zhao. According to rumors, the Madam Atoka contained at least 4 tons of gold, dozens of tons of silver and a large number of precious stones!"

"For a long time, people thought that this ship sank near Jamaica, but in fact we were all wrong. This ship sank off the coast of Cuba! I have confirmed the approximate location!"

Mel said sternly.

Hearing this, Zhao Wenmu's pupils suddenly dilated undetectably.

The wreck of the Lady Atoka was indeed discovered in the 80s. Zhao Wenmu does not remember the exact time when it was discovered or who discovered it.

The key reason why Zhao Wenmu was so impressed with this sunken ship was that there were really four tons of gold and dozens of tons of silver on it.

Zhao Wenmu was shocked when he saw this news in his previous life.

How wonderful it would be if I got these treasures!

He has never forgotten the name ever since.

As for whether its discoverer was named Mel, and whether it was discovered in 1985, Zhao Wenmu doesn't remember.

But he did vaguely remember the ship being found in Cuba!

And the approximate time is also in the 80s, nothing more than the past few years.

This deal has to be done!
Isn't it just 200 million US dollars?He is not short of this money!
The right is considered a venture capital investment, and it doesn't hurt to lose money.

Although thinking this way, Zhao Wenmu remained calm.

"Mr. Mel, just based on your unsubstantiated words, I will invest 200 million US dollars. Isn't the risk a little too big!"

Zhao Wenqiu raised his eyelids calmly and looked at his brother.

Mel may not have discovered anything, but Zhao Wenqiu, the little girl who is very familiar with Zhao Wenmu, has already discovered that Zhao Wenmu has started to play for Mel.

This also shows that Zhao Wenmu really believes that Mel found the sunken ship.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wenqiu's heart beat faster.

"No, Mr. Zhao, you have to believe me, I really found this shipwreck! I got a manuscript from a contemporary Spanish colonist. By comparing it with other evidence obtained over the years, I have identified the area of ​​the shipwreck. reduced to a narrow strip of four nautical miles wide and 4 nautical miles long."

"As long as 200 million US dollars, at most 200 million! I can find this batch of treasures worth at least 6 million US dollars!"

Mel got a little emotional.

After all, he has been looking for it for 16 years, and the Lady Atoka has become his obsession.

As long as this sunken ship can be found, all his hard work these years will not be in vain, all the blind eyes and discrimination he suffered will be returned, and the family members who have been silently supporting him can also live a prosperous life!
He has never been so close to his dream!

Yet so far away.

200 million US dollars is definitely not a small number. Even if he sells the house and mortgages all the assets, he can only raise 180 million US dollars!
And he won't do it.

After all, although he said it swearingly, whether he can actually find the sunken ship still depends on his luck, and he himself has no idea.

If he fails, then he and his family will be lost forever!

When he thought of his little daughter's innocent and lovely smiling face, he couldn't make up his mind.

In fact, in his previous life, he finally put all his eggs in one basket, sold the house, mortgaged all his assets, and even got hundreds of thousands of debts, and embarked on the last journey to find the Madame Atoka.

Unsuccessful, they become benevolent.

Finally came back victorious.

"As long as I find the Lady Atoka, I only need 2000 million US dollars! 2000 million! Everything else is yours!"

Seeing that Zhao Wenmu was still hesitating, Mel said desperately.

$2000 million is enough for his family to live well!
I can also become the discoverer of the Lady Atoka, be remembered forever by history, and be talked about by treasure hunters of later generations, all these are enough!

Thinking of this, Mel didn't care if 2000 million was the tip of the iceberg in the huge treasure chest on the Madam Atoka.

"Okay, deal!"

"Mr. Mel, your persistence has touched me! I'm willing to pay for this pioneering spirit! 200 million dollars, I'll pay!"

Zhao Wenmu said with a smile.

Mr. Meier was immediately moved to tears, Pioneering Spirit, yes, Pioneering Spirit!
Sure enough, Mr. Zhao understands me best!
