Chapter 169 A Shipwreck and Ten Tombs

With such a big yellow-lipped fish in publicity, you can imagine the sensation caused. The bun shop managed by Chen Qing has already gone on a regular basis, and as the headquarters of a breakfast chain, the small shop on Antique Street is definitely not going to work anymore.

So with the help of Bai Xiaoyi and the others, preparations for the construction of the Red Mansion Restaurant, the headquarters of the breakfast chain, have begun, and the decoration should be almost completed by now.

Now that there is such a good gimmick, Han Peacock would be really stupid if he didn't know how to take advantage of it.

With Bai Xiaoyi's planning and sufficient funds, the breakfast chain has expanded rapidly recently. Now it has twenty-five branches, plus a main store, and the Red Mansion Restaurant Chain Group has begun to take shape.

In this new company, Han Kongque owns 80% of the shares, Chen Qing owns 15%, and the other 5% will be used as stock dividends for outstanding employees.

Now the total assets of the Red Mansion Restaurant Chain Group have exceeded 50 million. This is just after the company's expansion has been completed. With the opening of these 26 stores, the group company will have a branch opening every day. This kind of expansion speed, as long as it continues

In one year, the company will reach scale.

At that time, the company's assets will no longer be 50 million. One year later, the company's total assets will reach more than 500 million. The net profit of each store is only 20,000 yuan per day, which makes some insiders dumbfounded.

This is due to the increase in scale and cost, otherwise the company's profit margin would be even higher.

Not only Jiang Lin was envious of Han Peacock's snack bar chain, but even Long Lin and Chen Jiayi were also very coveted.

It can be said that they watched this store develop, and the development speed was so rapid. It only took more than a month to complete the initial expansion.

Now if the promotion of yellow lip fish is added, it will be difficult for this company not to make money.

"Brother Han, when do you plan to return?" Although he doesn't care too much about Han Peacock's secrets, Long Lin also knows. Han Peacock seems to be returning empty-handed from this treasure hunt.

Chen Jiayi said: "If things don't go smoothly, just return home! Opportunities will always come."

"All the designated sea areas have been searched, and no valuable targets have been found. If there are no accidents, we will return today!" Han Peacock sighed.

Chen Jiayi smiled and said: "Why are you sighing? This time you went to sea, even if you didn't find the sunken ship, you still gained a lot."

"That's right, just such a yellow-lipped fish is worth almost five million. Plus the more than two hundred tons of fish, there is no way you can lose it." Long Lin said.

Chen Jiayi said: "Not only is there no companionship, what is the difference between such a gain and finding a treasure ship?"

"That's right, even if we find the silver ship, who knows how much silver is on the ship? Unfortunately, it's not as valuable as such a yellow-lipped fish." Long Lin stared at the yellow-lipped fish again before saying.

"Okay, I'm following my good intentions. I've been out at sea for a week. Since I haven't harvested anything, I'll return." Han Peacock said to Captain Song Haitao, who was watching the yellow-lipped fish.

With Han Kongque's order, Song Haitao immediately arranged for the people to return, and when all the people were on board, they returned immediately. If everything went well, they might be able to go home for dinner.

Now at ten o'clock at noon, with the speed of the salvage ship being 24 knots per hour, it is sailing almost more than forty kilometers per hour. With this distance of more than four hundred kilometers, it will take less than ten hours to return to the port of Modu.

However, the idea is good, but the reality is exactly the opposite. After the salvage ship sets sail, it can only sail slowly, and it must be under the guidance of Song Min.

The terrain of the sea area where they were located was more complex, and the ship had to avoid the reefs under the open water, which made the salvage ship extremely slow.

Everyone was not too slow when they arrived, but everyone who returned was eager to return home, but it was a bit unbearable.

Soon all the idle people gathered in Song Min's cabin, wanting to see what was going on.

"Can't we speed up?" Long Lin asked.

Song Min pointed at the monitor but said nothing. What was displayed on the monitor was the terrain under the sea water around the ship.

Although there are no dense reefs around, there are still one or two reefs every few hundred meters. Such an environment is often dangerous. Just one careless move may cause the ship to be destroyed and people to die.

"Those reefs are so far away from the ship, we can definitely speed up!" Chen Jiayi said.

Han Xing explained: "The detection range of our underwater detector is not far. The ship is too fast. If there is an emergency, there will be no reaction time."

"Okay, I found a safe channel. Look, this is an ocean current. As long as we follow this ocean current, we can quickly pass through this dangerous area." Song Min said at this time.

Song Min's opinion quickly turned to Song Haitao's side, the accurate route was obtained, and the speed of the salvage ship began to increase.

"Okay, everyone, let's go back and rest. We will return to the Magic City in ten hours." Song Min turned off the monitor and said.

Seeing Song Min's actions, Han Kongque led everyone away knowingly. When everyone returned to their cabins, Han Kongque immediately turned back to Song Min's cabin.

At this time, Song Min, Gu Lie, He Xiangshan, Bai Yi, and Han Xing have all gathered here.

As soon as Han Kongque came in, he asked: "How is it? What's going on?"

"Second brother's inference is correct. Those two ships are indeed coming towards us, and now they have blocked our exit." Song Min quickly called up a picture. The two maritime surveillance ships on it were just right.

Blocked in Han Peacock's waterway.

"Can't avoid it?" Han Peacock frowned.

"We don't need to avoid them, and we can't avoid them. They have satellites, and they will monitor us wherever we go." Song Min said helplessly.

It is impossible for individuals to fight against the power of the state. Besides, they have not done anything illegal. There is really no need to avoid the maritime surveillance ship. If they do, it will look like they have a guilty conscience. This ship will make the ship even more embarrassing.

People doubt.

"Then don't worry about them, we can go as we want." Han Peacock finally decided.

"Looking at them, they must be boarding the ship for inspection," Song Min said.

Han Kongque said: "Why? This is the high seas. Even domestic maritime surveillance ships have no reason to board the ship for inspection, right?"

"Just in case, I think we should put all the detectors into the sea! Anyway, the ship is not moving very fast at this time, and our detectors can fully keep up with the speed of the ship." Song Min hesitated before saying.

Han Peacock thought for a moment and said, "Let it go! But once it's released, how can we take it back?"

Song Min said: "This ship has a water injection tank, and our detectors enter and exit from there."

"Okay, please keep it confidential." Han Kongque said to Gu Lie.

Bai Yi and He Xiangshan knew that Han Kongque had always been strict about confidentiality, so they never asked about things they shouldn't know, which also saved Han Kongque a lot of trouble.

The salvage ship was sailing steadily, and most of the people on board had already entered the cabin to rest, but Han Kongque and the others were nervously watching the picture on the monitor.

There was silence in the cabin, and Han Peacock was awakened only when the computer beeped harshly again.

"What's wrong?" Han Peacock asked.

"Another ship is coming," Song Min said.

Han Xing said: "It's the American Odyssey Marine Exploration Company. The 200-ton silver ship we mentioned earlier was salvaged by this company."

Han Kongque looked at the large salvage ship displayed on the monitor with a sneer on his face. It had to be said that Chen Jiayi and the others were very capable and actually brought this company here.

The construction cost of a 3,600-ton large-scale salvage and crane ship alone is 300 million yuan. If you purchase the finished product, 400 million yuan is not much.

The hull has a total length of 118.9 meters, a width of 48 meters, a total weight of about 15,000 tons, and a design speed of 4 knots.

Although the speed is very slow, its lifting capacity is strong. This ship is equipped with eight 55-ton ship-moving winches and eight 12-ton large-capacity anchors, which can anchor when the offshore wind is less than or equal to level 8. This makes

Its working hours are longer, which is incomparable to the one Han Kongque and the others are currently riding.

The ship's crane is a 3,600-ton double-arm luffing crane. The single-arm has a rated lifting capacity of 1,800 tons and the double-arm has a rated lifting capacity of 3,600 tons. Each jib is equipped with two 900-ton main hooks and one auxiliary hook.

The height of the main hook from the waterline is 108 meters and the main hook can enter the water to a depth of 10 meters. It can be said that this kind of crane ship is more professional and more powerful than the 1,000-ton ship Han Kongque and the others are riding.

Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times, and now antiques continue to heat up, making some people start to go crazy.

There is a saying in the cultural relics market that "one sunken ship holds ten tombs" because an ordinary medium-sized merchant ship can carry more than 100,000 pieces of porcelain.

Such a large number of cultural relics certainly have huge economic value, so more and more countries and private companies have set their sights on the treasures that have been "sleeping" on the seabed for thousands of years. A global "shipwreck salvage craze" is underway.

All sea areas continue to heat up.

The American Odyssey Marine Exploration Company is one of the leaders.

"It seems that our plan has been exposed." Han Xing's face was already ugly. He knew how strict Han Peacock's confidentiality contract was, but now it was exposed so easily, which made Han Xing have to think more.

On the contrary, Han Kongque was very relaxed: "Don't think too much. Those who should know will definitely know. Moreover, these people are not necessarily here for our plan. Maybe they are here for the Awa Maru treasure."

Come."

Song Min and Han Xing looked at Han Peacock at the same time. He should be the most angry here, and his reaction made both of them react at the same time.

When the two of them relaxed, Han Peacock said nothing more.

"Baiyi, can American salvage companies salvage sunken ships in this area?" Han Kongque asked.
