The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 993: Sea Coachman's Ship

After listening, Zhang Nan smiled and signaled that the captain could go busy.

The Sunshine Star has enough supplies for the people on board for two months, but fresh water cannot be used for that long. With the addition of the Great Shark, it is temporarily equipped with huge water tanks, cargo ships, it’s a big place.

But two months?

For Zhang Nan, this month is estimated to be the limit. No matter how luxurious the yacht is, it will be more than 1,000 tons. With such a small amount of space, it will be annoying for a long time.

Well, even if it were replaced by an ultra-luxury super cruise ship, Zhang Nan would be bored living on it for a month. People are always land animals.

In less than half an hour, the yacht began to leave the port, and the Shark followed later.

Still in the restaurant, a group of people stood around a long dining table. On the table was a local chart with five crosses marked with ABCDE to distinguish them.

The four red points A with a water depth of 15 meters have been blacked out by a pen: this is the location map of the five sunken ships, and the sunken ship with only a small amount of daily-use Qianlong folk kiln porcelain is drawn in black.

Thomas took a pen and lit two similar points and said: "Boss, let's go to point E, and the Shark to point D. The water there is too deep."

Can it be deep? The salvage point that the Queen Shark will go to is 48-50 meters deep, which is close to the limit of air and nitrox professional diving. If it is more than ten meters deep, you have to use heliox diving equipment.

Of course, if you use the 500,000 atmospheric pressure super diving suit that was transported by air, divers can go down to a depth of 300 meters.

But for the time being, the expensive "robot shell" equipment is not available. Diving Captain Vita Bruno said that he and his friends can use nitrox diving equipment to work down to a depth of 65 meters, as long as they follow the diving rules. Come on, 50 meters.

The yigao people are bold, just follow them, and the divers know it in their hearts.

As for Zhang Nan, just go to point E, where the water depth is only 8 to 9 meters, so I can go down for a while.

As for the remaining two points, one has a water depth of 18 meters and the other has a water depth of 27 meters. The distance is relatively long, so there is no hurry for the time being. Explore the two places where the difficulty is the most and the least, so that the boss will have fun before talking about it.

At a speed of 16 knots, it reached the target sea area in a few hours and stopped and dropped anchor.

On the sun deck at the stern, two full-time divers are ready to go into the water ahead of time and go to the front station for the boss.

The transportation cabin on the flank of the yacht was also opened, and the crew piloted the boat to prepare to meet in the nearby waters.

For this trip, I don’t need shark dispelling medicine for the time being. There are sharks in this area, but they are all species that basically don’t attack humans.

The temperature is more than 30 degrees, not particularly hot, and the visibility of the sea is okay: some time ago, the personnel who had previously explored dived here, and the remaining length of the sunken ship below was more than 20 meters. The original tonnage was not small, and it should be able to exceed 300 tons. Even bigger.

Zhang Nan didn't rush into the water and waited for the divers to report the situation below.

Sitting under the opened sunshade net, there were two swimmers sitting on the side, and asked: "Jingzi, will you go down and have a look later?"

A few days ago, she didn't want to dive at all, but she could swim, as if she was suffering from diving phobia.

Yes, this girl still shakes her head like a rattle!

This is all right.

Dixit was interested, and planned to go down, not even going to change into a diving suit, and would put a compressed air bottle on his back in a swimsuit before going into the water.

The water depth is less than ten meters. Indian girls have learned to dive in Los Angeles. It is said that they have obtained the second-level diving certificate with a depth of 30 meters, and they can play within 10 meters.

There are almost no toxic organisms in the sea, so it’s not a big problem to wear a swimsuit or not.

Not only is Dixit not planning to wear a diving suit, but the bodyguards who will accompany Zhang Nan in the water later are also shirtless preparing to compress the cylinder, and just put a pair of flippers on the feet.

Before long, a diver who got into the water first came up. After working overtime in the sunshine, he took out a few small things from a small mesh bag hanging on his waist.

"It was found in the back half of the hull. On the other side, a portrait of a dying ship's bow."

Many wooden submarine sunken ships will only rotten to the bottom of the ship. It is rare to keep the ship in its original three-dimensional shape, and the same is true for this one below.

However, divers also have their own unique skills. They can judge the bow and stern of the ship from the characteristics of the remaining structure of the shipwreck. If they find the image of the bow still inserted in the hull, it will be better judged.

It's just that the previous report didn't mention the discovery of the ship's bow. It seems that the ocean currents here have changed a bit in the past few months, or the last time the guy was lazy.

There are only three things poured in the plastic basin prepared in advance, all of which are metal. It is a little awkward for these three things to appear together!

The bottom of the seabed is coral and silt bottom. One of the three things has traces of shellfish attached to it, while the other two are clean, with a slightly silver-white metallic luster.

Three silver wares, two cold European-style spoons, plus two pointed silver ingots!

It's really a silver ingot, a genuine, Chinese-style silver currency with a size of twelve or two.

Without paying attention to the two spoons, Zhang Nan picked up the silver ingot and looked at it carefully: there should have been the words ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ in the middle of the upper part, but this piece of oxide is very thick and it is not clear.

"Mr. Allen, the East and West have come together."

Sawaguchi Yasuko, who was on one side, was also looking at it, and she looked at it very carefully, saying this also revealed the strangeness of the found objects.

Hearing this, Zhang Nan looked at the two spoons again: I couldn't see any marks on the top, at least I couldn't see the reason until the oxide was further removed.

"It may be a trading ship, but I don't know which country it is from."

It definitely won't belong to Huaxia, because traditional ancient Huaxia ships don't have any Western-style bows on the bows.

No matter which country it is from, Zhang Nan is also ready to go into the water to have a look.

Two hours later, a pile of miscellaneous items were salvaged out of the water: none of them were cargo, but the crew's personal belongings and daily necessities.

This is the South China Sea. It has been China’s territory for many years. China has had a profound impact on this area. This has led to Western ships coming here for hundreds of years, whether it’s trading ships or colonial warships. There are a large number of Huaxia products.

Now there are many things in this plastic basin: a Ming Dynasty style broken bowl, a Ming Dynasty style blue and white soup spoon, a dozen silver ingots, two glass beads, two round non-porous silver coins...

It took a bit of effort before Zhang Nan cleaned one of the silver coins: the earliest horse sword trade silver coin in the Netherlands, an earlier variety than the horse sword silver coin found in Klingenthal!

The Portuguese established trade relations on the island in the early 16th century, followed by the Spanish. At the beginning of the 17th century, the trade monopoly between the Portuguese and the Spanish was broken by the Dutch, who successfully replaced the influence of Ma Dalan by interfering in the affairs of the Kingdoms.
