At the port of Vladivostok, a Kamaz covered with a canvas canopy took advantage of the darkness and drove into the cargo hold of the icebreaker Pingtou Ge. Before the car could stop, the gangplank was slowly retracted and the cargo hold door was locked.

In the canvas tent, Xianyu opened the canvas curtain and jumped out of the cabin. Bingtang followed closely with his new little brother and concubine, and jumped down and squatted obediently at Shi Quan's feet.

"What kind of stupid name did you come up with?"

As soon as Big Iwan jumped out of the cab, he complained loudly, "Even the Dragon and Bear are better than some flat-headed brother?"

"Isn't that a good name!" Shi Quanhun didn't care, "Everything has been arranged at the radar station?"

"arranged"

Big Iwan couldn't help but glance at Xianyu, and then patted his chest and assured, "Now even if the radar station is unattended, there will be no problems. It is absolutely safe!"

Shi Quan didn't care. After the boat started, he led everyone up the stairs and continued to ask, "Where are Vika and the bear?"

"Vika has returned to Smolensk, but her bear is a problem. It eats too much."

Big Ivan had a headache when he talked about this, "In order to keep the bear full, Asak's father had to hunt a wild boar or a deer every three days, and the little guy didn't eat raw meat at all, not even every meal.

You still need to drink at least two bottles of beer."

Are you still called a bear if you don't eat raw meat? Are you still called a bear if you drink alcohol? Shi Quan and others looked at each other, and in the end they had no choice but to shake their heads helplessly, get into the elevator and go straight to the conference room on the second floor.

"How long will this voyage take?" Nasha asked curiously.

Shi Quan motioned to Elena to turn on the projector, pointed to the chart displayed on the screen and said, "It is expected to take at least 15 days. If the sea conditions in the Bering Sea are bad, this time may be extended. In addition, the speed will slow down after entering the Northern Passage.

, Ideally, it would be good if we could reach Bennett Island within 25 days.”

"Yuri, should we go steal something?" Big Ivan asked with a sly smile.

"Stealing something? Stealing something?" Shi Quan didn't know why. This guy had only been on the boat for a few minutes. Why did he start thinking about stealing something?

"Hey! I've been thinking about it since you planned to buy a boat."

Big Ivan picked up the laser pointer on the table, manipulated the chart to continuously zoom in, and finally circled an island located on the edge of the Bering Sea.

"This is Attu Island, one of the Yankees' overseas backup bases. There is usually no one guarding it, especially in winter." Big Ivan asked excitedly, "There are a lot of military supplies stored there, how about it?

?Would you like to go over for a friendly visit?"

"Friendly visit? Take away some local products by the way?" Shi Quan couldn't laugh or cry. This big Ivan really took advantage of him.

"Would you like to go?" Big Ivan encouraged, "As long as the place can be emptied, the cost this time will be covered."

"Go to hell!"

Shi Quan took away the laser pointer from Big Iwan's hand angrily, "Are you so arrogant that you still empty your mind? Why don't you think we don't have enough troubles?"

"At least go and have a look. Even if you take a photo, it would be good." Big Ivan still refused to give up.

"Don't go!"

Shi Quan reduced the size of the sea chart and directly killed Big Ivan's whims, "We are legal businessmen, not pirates, so let's get back to business.

If nothing else goes wrong, the Pingtou Ge will be able to pass through the Zongu Strait in about one and a half days, and it will enter the Bering Sea after another three to four days of sailing. After entering the Bering Sea, the sea conditions will undergo earth-shaking changes, so everyone must be mentally prepared.

.”

"Understood!" Everyone responded with a rare serious voice.

"Ono, you and Sister Chuqing are ready for medical assistance at any time. We will distribute seasickness medicine to everyone later."

"Okay!" Liu Xiaoye and Zhang Chuqing replied in unison.

Shi Quan nodded and continued, "Xianyu is added to the sailor post and listens to Lei Zi's command. If there is a conflict, Xianyu is responsible for taking command. The others can take turns according to the schedule. Most of the people Lao Hu has hired can speak Russian.

If you don’t understand, learn more from other sailors and ask more questions.”

Everyone in the conference room responded in unison again, and then rushed to various positions under Shi Quan's instructions, leaving only Big Ivan still sitting next to Shi Quan in a leisurely manner.

"What's wrong?" Shi Quan turned off the projector and asked curiously.

"Take a look at this thing." Big Ivan took out a gold bar from his arms and handed it to Shi Quan.

Taking the gold bar, Shi Quan frowned. The gold bar weighed only about one kilogram and was very rough in casting. It also had a rather vague crown mark and a nail-sized sea anchor mark on it.

"My father discovered this accidentally when he was attending an auction of vintage vodka more than three months ago."

Ivan the Great grabbed a pen on the table, pointed to the mark on the gold bar and explained, "According to the research of experts invited by my father, the crown mark is the symbol of the last Tsar Nicholas II, and the sea anchor comes from me.

The ancestor of Kolchak."

"Clang!"

The gold bar hit the conference table covered with red velvet and made a crisp sound. Shi Quan raised his head in surprise, "You mean, this gold bar comes from Kolchak's gold treasure?!"

"Probably!"

Big Ivan nodded solemnly, then stood up and locked the solid wood door of the conference room. He lowered his voice and said, "My father, with the help of Andre, spent a month tracking down clues and finally determined that this gold bar came from a trustee."

There is a place called Black Creek Town south of Musk, but the clues can’t be found there.”

"Do you want to find it?" Shi Quan picked up the gold bar again and asked while looking at it.

Big Ivan nodded, "Although I have always listened to Kolchak's gold treasure as a story, given that we found Baron Thor before, this makes me have to reconsider the authenticity of the existence of Kolchak's gold.

.”

"How far is the Black Creek town you mentioned from Lake Baikal?" Shi Quan raised his head and asked.

"The straight-line distance is about 1,500 kilometers. At the same time, the straight-line distance from Omsk, Kolchak's base camp, is less than 800 kilometers." Ivan the Great answered truthfully.

"So you and your father, Mr. Vasily, guessed that Kolchak's gold was hidden in Black Creek Town?"

"How will you know if you don't look for it?"

Big Ivan showed a free and easy smile, "Our family is not keen on this so-called golden treasure. Even if we can find it, I am afraid that only a small part will be left as a family souvenir, and the rest will probably be returned by my father."

Federal Government.”

"Let's go look for it after the new year." Shi Quan said, pushing the gold bar to Da Iwan.

"You stay"

Big Ivan stood up and said solemnly, "Yuri, this is the commission I issued to the club on behalf of my father. This gold bar can be regarded as part of the prepaid salary."

"You can take it yourself. I am neither short of money nor gold."

Shi Quan and Big Ivan bumped their fists, stood up and walked out, "If we don't find it by then, this gold bar may be the only relic left by Kolchak."

"If you can find it, you can get half of it." Big Ivan caught up and pressed the door handle of the house and said.

"Need not"

Shi Quan shook his head, "Mr. Vasily is a member of the club after all, and he is your father. I am still very grateful for the help and support he provided during the first auction, so this commission will follow last year's rules.

Each member has the privilege of publishing a commission for free once a year."

"But..." Big Ivan showed rare pretentiousness, "This is against the rules."

"Rules? Shit rules."

Shi Quan opened the door and said, "We are all shareholders of the club. When will this commission be released or will we have the final say? So be it! If Mr. Vasily or our Ivan Vasilinovich Gao

If Mr. Erchak feels bad about it, he will only have to bear the cost of the entire entrustment process and the employee wages for the month."

The iconic ferocious smile appeared on Big Iwan's bear face, and he said in a strange accent, "Comrade Shi Quan, I am very satisfied that you finally remember my full name."

"Let's go and have a drink at the restaurant."

Shi Quan waved his hand, "I cheated a lot of Maotai from Mr. Hu, and bought hundreds of kilograms of home-brewed grain wine from home. I even prepared dozens of kilograms of sauced pork ribs and kept them frozen in the meat warehouse."

Big Iwan grabbed the gold bars on the conference table and stuffed them into his arms again, and caught up with Shi Quan in a few steps, "Yuri, congratulations on getting rich!"

"The wealth is rolling in!" Shi Quan reached out and took the big hand extended by Big Iwan, officially accepting the commission.

In the next two days, the icebreaker Ping Tou Ge sailed northeastward in the Japanese Sea, cutting through the waves. This sea area is as full of filth as its name. Floating objects and life from the Tsushima Strait Container Country

Garbage can be seen everywhere, and in some places you can even see Russian offshore oil fields and a little bit of oil floating on the sea around them.

However, these pollutions that have caused serious damage to the marine environment are far less dangerous than the discarded radioactive materials in Russia. At the same time, due to the unique geographical location and hydrological characteristics of the Japanese Sea, its self-cleaning ability is far from keeping up with the actual

need.

"This is probably the most polluted sea area in the world, right?"

Inside the bridge, Shi Quan held up a telescope and looked at the coast of the nearby island country. The lens of the telescope slowly followed the young girls with bow-legged and splayed hair on the snowy day, but he secretly thought to himself that it was a pity that he didn't hurry up.

The last earthquake, tsunami or something?

"Isn't that right?"

Captain Miao held a thermos cup with one hand and turned the rudder with the other, "No matter how nice the sea is, it won't be clean with these Japanese beasts."

The sailors on the bridge looked at Captain Miao in surprise. After getting along with him for more than a month, Captain Miao was definitely serious, rational, and fair. They had never seen this old captain who had passed the retirement age say this.

To make such extreme remarks.

"I don't hate those Japanese people, I really look down on their hypocrisy."

Captain Miao's eyes did not leave the direction of the bow of the ship at all, and he said quietly, "If one day in the future we come to this sea in the summer, you will know that whalers can be seen everywhere on the sea at that time.
