Chapter eight hundred and thirty seventh another purpose
In fact, there are many things that Chen Wenzhe has not told everyone. For example, Chen Wenzhe has now confirmed the identity of this sunken ship.
In principle, this is a French frigate named "Griffin".
This is definitely a legendary battleship, and although it is a French frigate, it is not guarding the French fleet, but the Spanish fleet.
There are many more stories here. If you study them carefully, you will definitely gain unexpected results.
For example, when the Spaniards came to the East, they had two routes. One was from Europe through Africa, through the Indian Ocean, and the Strait of Malacca to the East.
The other one was opened later, which goes from South America directly across the Pacific Ocean, along a series of islands in the southern hemisphere, to the East.
This Spanish fleet must have crossed the Pacific Ocean.
Such fleets are generally responsible for transporting large quantities of treasures.
Also, as long as such a fleet is targeted by pirates, a big piece of fat will definitely be taken off.
Of course, the origins of those pirates back then were also rather strange.
The pirates in those days must have been the regular navies of the Western governments at that time. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to defeat the maritime overlords at that time!
Chen Wenzhe and the others found a warship, and it was already very powerful to be able to reach the vicinity of Nanhai Island.
If he really went through a series of severe battles, then he would definitely hold on until the end.
So, was the treasure ship that sank midway recorded by the captain at the time?
Just because he thought of this, Chen Wenzhe paid special attention to the belongings of the crew members found on the ship!
Compared with the entire treasure ship, the silver bars, gold ornaments, goldware, gemstones, and porcelain that have been recovered from this station ship are really nothing.
Of course, there may be no news about other treasure ships, but Chen Wenzhe still lacks such a little bit of shady wealth?
"Put your things away, I'm going to call the police."
After the excitement, Lao Zhao spoke.
Chen Wenzhe nodded, and Lao Zhao decisively made the call.
The call was from their local maritime department. If circumstances permit, a law enforcement ship will arrive soon.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened, and some looming lights of fishing boats could be seen in the distance on the sea.
Lao Zhao had become accustomed to similar night flight scenes, but Chen Wenzhe and the others looked a little nervous.
The sea is dark, and those who are timid must be afraid.
Most importantly, it feels reassuring to not feel grounded!
After Lao Zhao finished the call, Chen Wenzhe threw the small leather bag in his hand to Zhang Yijie.
"After processing these things, they will be used as funds for our activities this time. If it is not enough, let Zheng Yu make up for it. If it is too much, we will divide it equally and use it as a bonus!"
"Okay!" Zhang Yijie said with a smile.
Although the value of the remaining gems is slightly lower, there are still more than 20 pieces here. Even if one piece is sold for 100,000 yuan, there are still more than 2 million yuan!
The maritime department arrived very quickly, maybe they were on duty nearby.
After boarding the ship, everyone's eyelids twitched when they saw the things piled on the ship.
"What's going on with you?" a man who was obviously an official asked.
His attitude is quite good, because he is not stupid, and this group of people looks like rich people at first glance.
Of course, if there was no money, these things would have been taken away long ago. Who would call the police and ask them to deal with it?
"While diving around, I accidentally discovered a sunken ship. It had been dug up and it looked like there were some signs of damage. We had no choice but to help bring up what we could collect."
Zheng Yu is the most slick and has relevant experience in dealing with government departments, so he is responsible for handling this matter.
"Haha? You are all brave enough to do what is right. No, you are all good comrades who are willing to make money without knowing anything. We have to thank you?"
A soldier in camouflage suddenly spoke.
Chen Wenzhe glanced at him. His military rank was not low, so he was the chief officer, right?
"No, this is our duty as citizens!" Zheng Yu followed the stick when he hit the snake, which is also called shameless.
"Okay, do you need us to search? Hand over everything!"
"What do you need to pay? When we go on a trip, we just bring some gems with us to put in the bottom of the box, and there really isn't much else!"
Looking at the golden pipe that Zheng Yu was playing with, the officer's eyes twitched a little.
But how can you prove that this was fished out of the sea?
Even if it can be proven, is it necessary?
Looking at the others, everyone actually has a gem in their hands.
The red and blue ones are not dazzling under the light, but instead bring a kind of temptation.
Needless to say, these must have been salvaged from the sunken ship, but they had no evidence.
Besides, they also called the police and did not hide it. If they, the law enforcement officers, had more evil intentions, they would have dealt with them.
What if the heart is not dark? The officer glanced at everyone, especially the guy who was smiling but not smiling.
That smile is a bit playful, I'm afraid they don't like it.
The officer suddenly had some enlightenment in his mind. Even if everything was confiscated, what would happen?
"Okay, let's register these things and let's go back first. It's going to rain tonight."
The officers no longer hesitated. There was no evidence anyway, so were they really going to give in?
In this case, it is better to form a good relationship.
Maybe in the future, they can call the police if they find a sunken ship!
If the blow is too severe, whoever discovers the sunken ship in the future will deal with it privately. Who will call the police? I feel uncomfortable.
By the way, these people don't look like fools, why would they choose to call the police?
No hidden dangers? Judging from the situation, these young people don't seem to be afraid of trouble.
Besides, they are all tourists from out of town. After they leave, even if they find the sunken ship and know that they salvaged it, there is nothing they can do to them!
Handling cases in another place is not as easy as people think!
So, the current situation must have an ulterior motive?
Of course Chen Wenzhe had a purpose. At this time, he had already seen a lot of useful information through the gold-covered jade pipe found by Zheng Yu, the most important of which was a sea map.
The chart was drawn by the captain of the Griffin, or it was marked randomly on an ordinary chart.
Of course, that chart has long been soaked by sea water.
However, through retrospection, Chen Wenzhe still saw it.
Although they are marked randomly, as long as the differences are not too big, you can still find those sunken battleships!
After just sorting it out, Chen Wenzhe discovered that through the Griffin, he saw two shipwrecks at once.
One of them was in North and South America, and the other was in nearby waters.
