The heat dissipated, taking away the clouds in the sky. The sky above the farewell island is spotless and blue in color, like a large piece of blue crystal hanging in the air, clean and pure, which makes people throb.
Qin Shiou lay on the deck, picked up his mobile phone and took a few pictures and sent them to Qzone.
It was ten o'clock in the morning, Newfoundland was in the West Fourth District, and Beijing was in the East Eight District. There was a difference of about ten and a half hours between the two sides. For China, it is now 11:30 in the evening.
Eleven or twelve o'clock is the prime time for night owls in the city. At this time of the day, the QQ group is also quite lively. Qin Shiou came out to say hello, and a group of classmates grabbed him and asked him to return to China to treat him to dinner.
"Fighting local tyrants."
"Birds and beasts don't talk about loyalty anymore. When he made two hundred yuan in college, he would invite me to make a bunch of strings. Now that he is worth tens of billions, grandma is no longer visible."
"Bird. Beast chicory, when will you come back to improve my food?"
"Eat, eat, you must eat, as long as you can eat anything is fine!"
Qin Shiou looked and laughed, he just wanted to reply to the message, but the phone rang. Now the yacht has not left the dock, so the signal is very strong.
This is an unfamiliar call. After he connects, he asks first: "Who are you?"
A calm voice came from the microphone: "Hello, Mr. Qin? I’m Billy Stemmer from Odyssey Ocean Exploration Company. I’m on the Shipwreck House forum. I saw you posted a post and asked about the Fernandez family. The shipwreck of the Deng's Fish, may I ask, did you find this shipwreck?"
I heard the keyword Deng’s fish. Qin Shiou became vigilant and said, "How did you get my call?"
Registration at the Shipwreck House requires mobile phone information verification, but the mobile phone information is guaranteed to be secret on the forum, obviously. They didn't do this, otherwise this Billy Stemmer wouldn't have his phone number.
Billy obviously guessed what he was thinking, and explained: "I have another identity, I am the moderator of the forum, so I can check the information you left, and then I took the liberty to call you this phone."
Qin Shiou was relieved in this way, but he didn't tell the truth, thinking of the captain's notebook he had found. Just said: "I recently got an old notebook with records about the Deng's fish number. I am more interested, so I want to consult. Do you have relevant information?"
Hearing what he said, Billy's voice was a little uplifted, and said: "Does your notebook have any information about the location of the Deng's fish shipwreck? According to our investigation. The ship was loaded with 500 tons when it sank. If we can salvage it, man, then we can become billionaires."
"What, five hundred tons of silver?" Qin Shiou asked in amazement. He blinked, **** it, it was 100 tons, OK? Could there be silver in the other positions of the ship?
"Yes, five hundred tons of silver. This ship departed from the port of Algeciras in 1781. A full load of five hundred tons of silver went to Boston and then shipped to New York."
"This batch of silver was the military expenditure lent by the Spanish government to the Washington government at the time to fight against the British raised by the dog niang and to help the then immature United States of America win the War of Independence."
"As a result, there was a problem with the ship’s course. When I contacted it for the last time, it was found that it had lost its way at sea. After crossing the 45th parallel north, the ship never appeared again and was listed. Into the ranks of the shipwreck."
Billy apparently sincerely wanted Qin Shiou to join hands to salvage the Deng's fish, and gave some background information.
Qin Shiou was confused. It was not right. There was obviously only one hundred tons of silver on board. How could it be said that it was five hundred tons? It is impossible to say that silver fell into the sea during the sinking process. The captain's room was well sealed.
So, what about 400 tons of silver left?
Qin Shiou was puzzled, and threw the question mark to Billy, saying: "According to the notebook record, man, Deng's fish number clearly only has a hundred tons of silver."
Billy fell silent over there. Qin Shiou thought he had hung up the phone, but then his voice rang again. This time he became a lot angry and said, "If this is the case, then it proves one thing, **** it, legend. It’s true. The biaozi raised by the dogs in Spain pitted the Northern American government at that time!"
Qin Shiou is even more confused, what the **** is this?
Billy asked quickly: "Qin, are you in Newfoundland? I am American and live in California. If I can, I would like to contact you and take a look at your notebook, because it is probably related to An old case in two countries!"
"What old case?" Qin Shiou's gossip fire ignited.
Billy explained: “I don’t know if you are aware that our war of independence was not the result of our independent victory over the British. At that time, we had the support of France, Italy, Portugal, Spain and other countries.”
"At that time, the Northern Army in Washington was poor and white. These countries all provided assistance to varying degrees. Among them was the 500 tons of silver aided by Spain, although the silver was lent to the American government in the form of loans."
"However, this batch of materials important to the Northern Army was not delivered to Boston in the end. However, because the U.S. government was a lender at the time, many unfair terms were signed in this loan transaction."
"One of them is that the silver leaves the Spanish waters, and the Spanish government is not responsible for its safety. Whether the money is lost or stolen by pirates, the American government must pay the bill."
“As a result, this batch of silver was ultimately not sent to the land in the United States, but because of the loan contract, after the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the Washington government still had difficulty repaying the arrears of 500 tons of silver.”
"There has always been a rumor about this matter. The rumors say that this transaction was a conspiracy by the Spaniards. They deceived the US government. There were only 100 tons of silver on board, and the rest were silver-plated iron plates!"
"Unfortunately, there is no evidence. This rumor has always been a rumor and cannot be confirmed. If the information recorded in your notebook is true, then the rumor is obviously true!"
Billy is supposed to be a patriot. When he explained this old case, he was so angry that words such as ‘FUCK’, ‘Biao Zi’s’, and ‘SHIT’ appeared endlessly.
Qin Shiou did not want to be involved in this so-called two-state case. What good would it do for him?
Furthermore, he was nonsense about the notebook problem just now. The notebook was almost soaked. Where can I read the words clearly?
So, he apologized and rejected Billy's request. Please, he is just a fisherman now, and he just wants to live a leisurely life. It is better not to involve him in political and economic matters.
Returning to QQ, Qin Shiou found that the group was already noisy. The topic was that he was too pretending to be B now, so he came out and dived without seeing him. Zhong Dajun kept yelling that he was scared off by the topic of a dinner party.
Qin Shiou must give himself a proper name: "Go away, I just took a call, and you were upset when I wasn't here! Isn't it just a treat for a meal? The question is how do I invite you? Can't get together!"
"You buy a plane and fly one by one, anyway, you are now a trench." Mao Weilong made a smirk.
Speaking of buying a plane, Qin Shiou was really moved that he really needed a plane. (A great event of pie-dropping in the sky, a cool mobile phone is waiting for you!
