space fisherman
Chapter 868: Empty Joy
He took out the sickle-like tool he got when he discovered alien creatures before.
Speaking of this weapon, we have to talk about its sharpness.
Even the alloy dagger that Mr. Xu gave him was inferior to this sickle.
But because the sickle is too big.
It's not as convenient as a dagger.
Therefore, Ye Yuan usually still likes to use the dagger and rarely uses the black sickle.
But today he needed to break open the wooden box, and the dagger was obviously not as useful as the sickle.
The wooden box has long since decayed, not to mention being struck by this sharp sickle.
Even with an ordinary iron rod, it can be easily broken.
As the wooden box was smashed by Ye Yuan, a large number of coins spilled out.
Among them, gold and silver coins are the main ones.
Open another wooden box, which also contains a large number of coins.
It seems that this is where the currency was stored before the shipwreck.
He waved his hand and put the two large boxes of coins into the space.
Ye Yuan continued to search and found a place similar to a cargo hold.
A large number of oak barrels were found.
I broke one casually and found that it contained a solid grease-like substance.
He didn't know what the grease was, but that didn't mean others didn't know either.
You must know that there are many knowledgeable mercenaries in his dimension.
Ye Yuan sent a large piece of grease into the space and received feedback quickly.
This white solid oil is actually whale oil.
This answer is both unexpected and reasonable.
According to Ye Yuan's understanding, whale oil was a very valuable item in the late 16th century.
They can be used not only for lighting and lubrication.
It is also used as an additive in medicines, soaps and asphalt.
Whale oil with added spices was the favorite fuel of European nobles at that time.
At that time, a 55-gallon barrel of whale oil could be sold for as much as 10,000 meters of gold.
But as times change, new energy sources are constantly being discovered.
Whale oil has also gradually withdrawn from the market as a fuel.
Most of today's whale oil is used to refine industrial oil.
But in order to protect whales, fewer and fewer people are killing whales now, and whale oil has been replaced by other items.
It can be said that this ship of whale oil would have been extremely valuable at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century.
But now, although it cannot be said to be worthless.
But compared with the trouble of salvage, even if someone knows that there is such a ship of whale oil under this sea area.
No one will come to salvage it.
It’s not clear whether the information Mr. Zhao gave was wrong, or whether he really found the wrong target.
How could such a sunken ship that was supposed to be a treasure ship suddenly turn into a worthless shipwreck?
I thought the two boxes of coins I found were appetizers, but in a blink of an eye I realized that they were the good stuff.
Ye Yuan could not help but lament that fate has played a trick on people.
At that time, the value of those gold and silver coins was simply not comparable to the whale oil here.
Looking at the hundreds of oak barrels, Ye Yuan just collected a few barrels as souvenirs.
The rest of the oak barrels were simply ignored by him.
After walking through a few more cabins and collecting a few belongings that seemed to be belonging to the crew at that time, there was nothing on the ship that Ye Yuan could catch his eye on.
I swam out of the cabin and found that the robots had stopped digging.
Standing there waiting for his return.
With a wave of his hand, several robots were directly sent back to space.
Ye Yuan then swam towards the Yushui No. 1 leisurely.
Originally coming with hope, but the result was a pitiful harvest, Ye Yuan was inevitably a little discouraged.
As a result, when he returned to the fishing boat, he found that several crew members were using the crane on the boat to hoist a sunfish that was three meters long.
"What do you do?"
Ye Yuan was curious, why did his crew still catch sunfish?
“Boss, this fish is so big, even if it’s cheaper, we can still sell it at a good price, right?
Especially this fish is really stupid. If you tie it up with a rope, it can be lifted directly by a crane, haha."
When Ma Hua heard Ye Yuan's question, he hurried over and started asking for credit.
This idea was his.
In his opinion, even if the boss Ye Yuan didn't praise him, he wouldn't be able to treat him to chestnuts again, right?
The result was realistic, when Ye Yuan understood what the crew were doing.
I directly invited Ma Hua to eat a chestnut.
"Although the sunfish is huge, it has a lot of internal parasites, and there are very few edible parts, so it's not cost-effective to put it back."
Ye Yuan really didn't know what to say about them.
When other fishermen encounter a sunfish, it is too late to hide.
It's better to use a crane to grab these at home.
"Isn't it a good deal?"
Yu Hongbo came over and asked in confusion. He also supported Ma Hua in catching the sunfish.
"This is simply not cost-effective! How much space does such a big fish take up in the refrigerated cabin?
As a result, you can't sell it for much money when you go back, so you should put it away now.
What do you think if the name is unlucky?"
Because of the previous shipwreck, Ye Yuan was holding his breath.
When I came back, I saw my own crew catching sunfish carelessly.
This made his whole body explode.
The tone of his speech also became a little more intense.
The crew rarely saw Ye Yuan lose his temper. Today, they suddenly saw that even Ma Hua, who was usually the most active, did not dare to speak anymore.
Ye Yuan didn't want to read any more, so he just left a sentence and returned to the cabin.
And leave a lot of you look at me, I look at your crew.
Don't even know what happened.
"Boss, what's going on? Isn't it just that you caught a sunfish? In the worst case, you can just put it back, so you won't lose your temper, right?"
“Do you think it’s because of the name of this fish?
I heard that many fishermen are very taboo about these things.
It’s not like we did something taboo, right?”
The crew members speculated among themselves, and only Yu Hongbo frowned slightly.
According to his understanding of Ye Yuan.
Even people like me accidentally caught some fish that were taboo.
Ye Yuan couldn't be like this.
The reason why the boss lost his temper seems to be related to his going to sea this time.
I just don’t know what happened to my boss under the sea that would make him unhappy.
Since the boss won't tell you, then don't think about it yourself. This is the most important rule as a bosun.
So he organized the crew to put the giant fish, which was about to be hoisted, back into the sea.
...
Japan, Shenchuan Oil Company.
"Hi! Hi! I'll contact Huangyuan Technology right away.
It will definitely not be called crude oil and affect Hawaii Island!
Please rest assured, Mr. William, we at Shenchuan Petroleum will definitely do it!"
The middle-aged man kept bowing even when he was talking to the phone.
When the other party got tired of scolding and had enough scolding, the call ended.
The middle-aged man is none other than Mitsui Hiroshi, the boss of Kamikawa Oil Company, the second largest oil company in Japan.
