Chapter 67 Treasure
During the Lantern Festival, Tang Xin drove back to Weiya Garden after dinner with his parents at home in the South District.
Ye Qiu and Cheng Mu, who returned from their hometown, came to the door one after another and took off their coats. Ye Qiu was wearing a turtleneck sweater and cut fruits on the edge of the water table, with graceful and charming backs.
Tang Xin leaned against the sofa and held the tablet computer to search for information.
He wants to transfer African minerals, and Chen Luo will definitely take over. The main difference is nothing more than the price.
The 2.5 billion US dollars is the price offered by Tang Xin.
No matter how much you bargain, Tang Xin’s bottom line is still 2 billion US dollars.
If it is exchanged for RMB, it will exceed 10 billion, but in Tang Xin's mind, this amount of money is a little less.
How to quickly increase value in the short term is his top priority now.
Dingdeng
Cheng Mu jogged down from the upstairs, jumped onto the sofa, hit Tang Xin's arms, held his neck and turned his head, saw the message on the tablet, and asked in surprise: "Do you want to buy art?"
On the tablet is the historical news about Tang Xin searching for lost masterpieces.
Tang Xin was gently rubbed her cheek with her neck, and she tickled her with one hand and let her give up. She sighed and said, "I just saw what lost masterpieces are more valuable."
As long as he finds the entry point, he can copy it and holds an auction to redeem it, and his wealth will naturally be filled with money.
The only problem is that such a work of art must be a lost and unowned object.
Cheng Mu rode on Tang Xin's thigh and kissed him hard first. His big eyes flashed and he shouted happily: "There are countless artworks lost in history, so we will go hunting for treasure in the future!"
Her obvious excitement of taking children to play treasure hunting games made Tang Xin and Ye Qiu laugh.
Ye Qiu walked to the sofa with a fruit tray. Just put the fruit tray on the coffee table. Cheng Mu jumped off the floor and first took an apple and stuffed it into Tang Xin's mouth.
Her words obviously meant that innocence and jokes coexist, but Tang Xin fell into deep thought. After a while, he pushed away the fruit that Cheng Mu kept stuffing into his mouth and asked: "Treasure hunt? Do you know the clues of treasure hunt? The world is so big, it will take a year or two to find the sky and sea."
Cheng Mu put down the fruit, walked to the back of the coffee table, raised his head and raised his chest, put his left hand on his hips, and pointed at the two of them with his right hand, pretending to behave in a deep voice: "You two sit down for me, and I will tell you the clues of treasure hunting. In the future, we will go together."
ah?
Tang Xin and Ye Qiu looked at each other and followed her command. The two sat down next to each other. Ye Qiu covered her mouth and prevented him from laughing out loud, and even turned his head to face Tang Xin's shoulder to cover up.
It’s really that Cheng Mu’s majestic look is too funny.
"Hey hey, Ye Qiu, don't laugh."
Cheng Mu shouted with dissatisfaction, frowned and began to think about what to teach people a lesson.
Tang Xin slapped Ye Qiu's thigh with a sharp sound. Just a momentary contact, you can feel the wonderful touch brought by the elastic thigh through the jeans.
"Okay, she won't smile."
Of course Ye Qiu stopped laughing. The slap made her thigh hurt. The sudden slap made her feel a little stunned.
As soon as he recovered, Tang Xin put his hand on her thigh again, and he helped her rub it with a gentleman with a calm look on his face.
Ye Qiu was angry and slapped Tang Xin, intending to slap his hand off, but Tang Xin's eyes did not slant. However, his hands were avoiding quickly. Ye Qiu's palm fell on his thigh, making him cry because of pain.
He was so angry that he felt smoke from his forehead, and moved his body with his arms around him, setting a distance from Tang Xin.
"Teacher Cheng, please go to class."
Tang Xin reached out with a smile and asked Cheng Mu to tell him that he would quickly talk about the topic.
Cheng Mu scratched his head. He was brewing for a moment and said, "In 1942, the Edinburgh in the United Kingdom was sunk by a German submarine. 40 years later, the ship was salvaged with five tons of gold ingots on it. In the Song Dynasty of my country, the South China Sea No. 1 was sunk and was salvaged ten years ago. There were more than 4,000 cultural relics on it, which were priceless. Nearly four hundred years ago, the Lady Atoka of Spain was sunk due to a hurricane near Cuba. Thirty years ago, the treasures on the ship were worth 100 million US dollars. One hundred and fifty years ago, the Republic of the United States was sunk due to a hurricane and was salvaged ten years ago. The treasures on the ship were auctioned for 75 million US dollars. Three hundred years ago, the Vider in the United Kingdom was sunk due to a storm and was salvaged thirty years ago. Not to mention the gold and silver coins, there are 200,000 cultural relics on it!"
Tang Xin and Ye Qiu were both stunned.
When Cheng Mu saw their expressions, he grinned and sneered.
Tang Xin slapped his thighs, and before he could speak, Ye Qiu screamed first.
"Why do you keep hitting me in the leg?"
Tang Xin turned his head and smiled at her, withdrew his hand angrily, moved his mouth, and made a lip shaped gesture without making a sound.
Ye Qiu's face turned red, and he rubbed his thighs and pouted.
Tang Xin's mouth silently made four words.
I can't let go of love.
Ye Qiu muttered in his heart: Is there anyone who can't let go of it? Is this what it means to love?
Tang Xin was a little excited when he cleared his throat.
I have to say that one person is short of intelligence and two people are competing. Cheng Mu's words gave him great inspiration and ideas.
Although this kind of treasure hunt is in vain even if you have money, he is not an ordinary person now.
To decrypt the treasure, he only needs one entry point!
My thinking was a bit narrow in the past, just thinking about who lost his masterpiece.
Now I think about it, if he knew the specific sinking location of the treasure ship, wouldn’t it be possible to go directly to salvage it?
The biggest difficulty in salvageing treasures at sea is determining the location and the dangers of the deep sea.
70% of the earth is sea area. It is conceivable that the vastness of the sea is, and it is difficult to determine the specific location of the shipwreck, especially the shipwrecks with a long history and record of incomplete records, coupled with complex factors such as landform changes and ocean currents.
But Tang Xin has time TV. As long as he can see the treasure ship and follow it all the way, he can confirm all the information!
Although it’s not just a waste of money, it can be regarded as a huge profit!
"Cheng Mu, all the things you said were salvaged, but they were not a little bit. Uh, sunk and disappeared. Anyway, there is a treasure ship waiting for us to search for?"
Tang Xin's eager look made Cheng Mumei smile, raised her chin even more proudly, and said with a thrill of spirit: "Of course, do you want to know?"
His head was like a chicken pecking at rice dots, and Tang Xin felt that his heart was full of heat, and the hot temperature came from his desire for treasure.
Cheng Mu's eyes narrowed into a line like a crescent moon. He was very satisfied with Tang Xin's expression and continued to speak as if he had known it.
"In 1708, the San Jose in Spain was sunk in the Caribbean Sea about 16 miles from the Colombian coast. The ship was loaded with gold bars, worth at least $1 billion. The Arab Batu Hitam sank in Southeast Asia in the Tang Dynasty and carried 60,000 pieces of 8th-century ceramic products in my country. The British Sussex sank in the eastern part of the Strait of Gibraltar in 1694 due to a storm, carrying 2.4 billion pounds of gold coins. Another thing is that the Nazi treasure ship sank in the waters near Kalamata in Greece due to an accident. It is said that there are 50 boxes of gold, silver and jewelry and religious art. In fact, there are many treasure ships sunk in the ocean, especially during World War II. There are definitely the most lost artworks in the sea!"
Cheng Mu just finished speaking, and planned to turn his head to see the reactions of the two of them and enjoy their admiring gazes. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Tang Xin jumping up and jumping over the coffee table, bent down and hugging her thighs to raise her high.
"Cheng Mu, I just discovered today that you are a treasure!"
Cheng Mu was shaking and panicking. When he heard Tang Xin's words, he immediately showed displeasure. He lowered his head and pulled his face and angrily said, "You are so angry that I, I, am I, I used to be a stone on the roadside?"
Tang Xin is now happy like a ghost, not calm at all.
After putting her down, he held her face and kissed it on her face like raindrops. Cheng Mu pushed his chest with both hands and exclaimed: "Don't, you, your saliva is covered with your saliva on your face. Don't, let me go."
After Tang Xin let her go, he turned around and pulled Ye Qiu up, who was stunned, and hummed a song on his lips and hugged her thin willow waist and danced.
"Are you stupid?"
After Cheng Mu wiped the saliva from his face, he looked at Tang Xin, who was now abnormal.
Ye Qiu also nervously stroked Tang Xin's face and asked, "Tang Xin, are you okay?"
Tang Xin stopped, closed his eyes and raised his lips slightly, then opened it and laughed, "Of course I'm fine. I decided that I want these treasures that have sunk in the sea to see the light of day again."
Now, Ye Qiu and Cheng Mu were really worried.
If Tang Xin was daydreaming, he would obviously be mentally abnormal.
If Tang Xin wants to put it into practice, this must be stopped! No matter how much money he invests, he will have to waste it.
The treasure ship is full of people all over the world, not to mention that governments in various countries also want to salvage the wrecked ship.
If you really find it so easily, someone would have taken the lead.
"Tang Xin, I, I just joked about treasure hunting, don't take it seriously."
Cheng Mu held Tang Xin's arm guiltily, for fear that he would have taken the lead and led Tang Xin into a misunderstanding.
Of course Tang Xin didn't go crazy.
He wants to collect more information, which costs money, but for such an investment, as long as the general information is correct, he can find the treasure.
For example, he only needs to know the time of a certain ship.
Or, when and where the ship was built.
By following the clues, you can find where you go.
He turned around, held Ye Qiu with one hand and Cheng Mu with the other, and walked up to the balcony.
Boom boom boom
The fireworks of the Lantern Festival bloomed in the night sky. Tang Xin and the other two stood on the balcony with a wide view and could see the fireworks in the sky clearly.
The fireworks this year seem to be particularly beautiful.
The stars are brilliant and the fireworks are gorgeous. Tang Xin, who is embracing each other, suddenly sighed: "Actually, when I was very young, I made a very childish wish. I hope that in this life, the three of us, plus Sun Dao, will be together forever."
"Who said that it was childish! I like it."
Cheng Mu snuggled into Tang Xin's arms, holding his waist tighter and tighter, as if he really planned to hug him and never let go of his whole life.
Ye Qiu turned his head and looked at Tang Xin with a smile on his face, then looked at Cheng Mu who was leaning on his shoulder and reluctant to leave. He lowered his head and smiled slightly, and leaned on Tang Xin's shoulder.
