As the group of killer whales gradually drifted away, the reluctant water friends asked Li Ming to drive the boat and continue chasing the group of killer whales before taking a look.

Considering that there are not much good weather in the coming week, time is very tight.

He refused such a request decisively. As for the threat of unblocking the barrage, it was simply undestructive to him.

In Li Ming's heart, he wished no one would pay attention to him.

Unfortunately, this idea is unrealistic.

Next, according to the location provided by the Explorer Sonar, Li Ming found a black stone like a baguette from the seabed.

When he struggled to bring the stone to the water, a misunderstanding arose.

In the eyes of the audience, I don’t look at the orca whale. It’s useless to catch such a black stone.

Naturally, I was teased by a fancy joke from the water friends!

[Brother Ming, why did you hold a stone?]

【Damn... This stone is as dark as my coal.】

[Is this thing the legendary ballast stone?]

[Such a small ballast? Don't make fun of it early in the morning...]

[You should pay attention, there are words on the black stone~]

In fact, there are more than one stone on the seabed being washed out by the water flow.

Li Ming found three such stones in total, but because they were too heavy, he could only catch one at a time.

He accidentally glanced at the barrage, and when everyone thought he had caught a black stone from the seabed, he couldn't help but feel speechless.

At this moment, there is no black stone in his hand. This is a real silver ingot!"

The silver ingots in his hand were still very heavy. Just based on his feel, he would have to have at least thirty or forty pounds!

Because he was immersed in the sea for a long time, the surface of the silver ingot had been oxidized to black, so the audience thought that he had held a black stone at first sight.

The silver bars that should have been shining silver are now like dark reefs, wrapped in a thick black shell, which is the result of long-term oxidation in air and seawater.

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Li Ming, who returned to the water, rolled his eyes and explained to the camera:

"Run to Haidi to get stones? Am I that idle!"

"Brothers! This is a real silver ingot!"

The audience was a little unbelievable. The thing in the picture was wet and there were a lot of lime-like mud pits on it. It really looked like an ordinary dark stone in a stream.

【Silver ingot? Impossible?】

[Props set, prop set, please give me a thick one. Do you call this black stone a silver ingot?]

【However, let’s learn about it!】

[Don’t you remember the silver coins wrapped in green rust that you found at the beginning? Brother Ming should be very saying!]

......

Of course Li Ming did not lie. The extremely active guys in precious metals like silver are most susceptible to the surrounding environment, even if they are just exposed to the air.

The silver molecules on the surface will slowly oxidize when exposed to oxygen, forming silver oxide.

Silver oxide is black, so sterling silver jewelry that people don’t wear for a long time will turn black if they are left for a long time.

But the silver ingots he retrieved from the sea are very inconsistent with the exquisite silver jewelry.

When I took out the special cleaning agent from the cabin, I put the black silver ingot in;

After he picked up all the silver ingots on the seabed, the silver ingot that had first emerged from the water had restored their original appearance.

Although he is still far from the silver-shining appearance, he can already intuitively distinguish his original appearance.

Now the water friends who had been clamoring to chase the killer whales before had nothing to say!

Instead, I kept using the two exclamations of Awesome and Wakao, all over the screen...

Next, he found three silver ingots in total, and Li Ming took the silver ingot and weighed it;

He found that the one he had just picked up weighed about 80 pounds!

It's about 40 kilograms, and the total of three pieces is 60 kilograms.

In other words, the total value of the three silver bars in front of Li Ming’s eyes is more than 100,000 US dollars!

And the most special thing is that each silver ingot is stamped with a serial number of different Roman numerals.

In terms of value, these silver ingots are far less valuable than those Spanish gold coins, and emerald-inlaid gold necklaces are of high value.

However, the number serial numbers imprinted on these silver ingots are very important.

From the 15th to the 18th century, each of the silver and gold ingots transported from the Americas to Europe by the Spanish from the United States was given a separate number on it when the smelting plant was released.

This is entirely for easy management.

The most important point is that the Spanish have kept these records intact during the hundreds of years of colonial history.

If you compare them with the list on the record, you can confirm which cargo ship Li Ming once found the thing he once belonged to!

The documents and records he was looking for were stored in Seville, Spain.

The West Indian Archives in Seville was the first commodity trading venue designed by Juan de Herrera in 1572;

It was converted into a public documentary museum in 1781.

The most precious thing in this archive is the document about discovering and conquering the New World.

and manuscripts, maps, etc. by sailing explorers such as Columbus and Magellan in the second floor exhibition room;

The time span of these documents ranged from 1492 to the end of the 19th century, with more than 80 million pages of documents.

Li Ming, who is in the Caribbean, cannot leave for Spain, but there is still a spiritual shareholder in Yanhuang Studio.

In a small Chinese supermarket in Jersey;

"Dear Elena, this thing is a mysterious treasure that comes to our East!

"After more than a hundred years ago, Empress Dowager Cixi used this thing."

Old Dong, wearing flowery shorts, was vigorously showing his affection. He was holding an exquisite and small snuff bottle in his hand and boasting hard.

The jade bottle carved with exquisite characters, but the painting on it is a scene where Lu Zhishen pulls up willows in Water Margin.

The princess Cixi and Lafayette probably look down on this thing.

If Li Ming is here, he will inevitably have a sarcasm.

Generally speaking, foreign women rarely see them after they are over 40 years old, but the charming temperament and taste of the foreign aunt in front of Lao Dong is indeed very rare.

Elena was very interested in what Lao Dong handed over. Mysterious oriental items always aroused a sigh of relief from Westerners.

"Mr. Dong, your thing is so beautiful, it should be very expensive!"

"It must be very expensive for others. For me, a treasure hunter who has been traveling around the world, he is just a relatively good-looking bottle."

In front of the beauty, Old Dong patted his chest and explained calmly.

The next man and woman had a passionate discussion on literature and antiques. Although Lao Dong's thin figure seemed very thin, his wit and humor successfully won the hearts of Ms. Elena.

The two decided to discuss and exchange the oriental literature in an easy-to-understand way at night, and the location was the hotel with the best scenery in the town of St. Helier.

The suit that had been in the closet for a long time was pulled out by Old Dong, and the hair on his head was cleaned up with hair wax and made him obedient.

The bottle of perfume my daughter gave him on her birthday came in handy at this time.

Old Dong, who was clean and neat, was about to go out, but the phone from Lou Xiao Supermarket rang inappropriately.

Old Dong chewing gum, picked up the phone with joy and said gently.

"Dear Elena, I'll go out right away!"
Chapter completed!
