v2 Chapter 610: .Goodbye, Titanic (5/5)
The title of the previous chapter was wrong. Sorry, I only found out that I was wrong after I published it. In fact, that chapter has nothing to do with marriage, embarrassing! ****
The Titanic has decayed, and icicle-like rust is spreading like a plague on the railings and anchors of the sunken ship’s bow.
Previously, a shipwreck salvage company used acoustic imaging, sonar and 3D camera technology to study the current status of the ship, and determined that the ship may collapse one after another in the next five to ten years.
Qin Shiou felt that this was not alarmist. He quietly watched the magnificent shipwreck. Since his last visit, the shipwreck has changed.
The last time he came to take away the portrait, the fore mast of the "Titanic" only tipped backwards, and now it has completely fallen and leaned on the bridge.
The most common thing on the sunken ship is icicle-like rust. It is said that the hull of the ship is made up of 2000 steel plates. The steel plates are 30 feet long, 6 feet wide, and 1 inch thick. A total of 3 million rivets are used to connect these steel plates. .
But now I can’t see these things. What I can see is the heavy rust piled up in layers, making this ship full of ruined decadence.
In addition, in addition to the seawater, there are various microorganisms that attack the sunken ship. They form their own communities around the sunken ship, and the damage to the sunken ship is not less than that of seawater.
The undersea undercurrent is another killer who destroys the shipwreck. Qin Shiou has read the information. Since people discovered the shipwreck, the shipwreck has moved more than 400 meters in the past two decades, and is driven by the undercurrent at a speed of 20 meters per year.
Qin Shiou gave the squids an order from the beginning to dismantle the Titanic from the periphery, instead of destroying the most famous shipwreck in history in sea water and microorganisms. It is better to destroy it in your own hands.
This is the destiny of all things, being made by the Creator, and destroyed by the Creator.
It was humans who built the Titanic, and ultimately destroyed it. Still human.
The reason why he chose to come around the shipwreck today, besides Qin Shiou’s leisure time, is that the mast observation deck of the shipwreck has been broken, and he will fall into the sea and be washed away.
For sunken ships. This is a historic scene. From this observation deck more than a hundred years ago, watcher Frederick Fleet saw the most famous iceberg in history.
The fall of the watch tower caused the surrounding sea to tremble. Qin Shiou looked at the big ship quietly, and thought silently: Goodbye, Titanic.
In this way, a large hole of four or five square meters appeared on the hull, and under the watch tower is the storage room. Qin Shiou directed the squid to enter the sunken ship along the big hole, looking for useful things inside.
The storage room of the Titanic stocked 34,000 kilograms of fresh pork, 5,000 kilograms of fresh fish, 11,000 kilograms of poultry meat, 40,000 eggs, 4,500 kilograms of sugar, 40 tons of potatoes, 1 ton of coffee, 1,500 bottles of wine, and 20,000. Bottle of beer etc.
Undoubtedly, these things are now ruined. What Qin Shiou was looking for was porcelain. At that time, there were 12,000 plates, 8,000 forks, 3,000 tea cups, and 8,000 wine glasses on board.
As a result, the porcelain is not tightly wrapped. After all, this thing is not afraid of water. At that time, no one thought that the ship would sink to the bottom of the sea. No one would have thought that someone would come to salvage the sunken ship in a hundred years, so these porcelains were in direct contact with the sea, and they were already covered with microorganisms, which was of no value at all.
There are a lot of oak barrels stacked in the corner of the storage room. These barrels were piled up together, so when the ship sank, they were too tight and did not spread out. Although the position was somewhat skewed, they did not suffer any damage. .
Qin Shiou checked, the barrels should be full of beer or wine. But no matter what the wine is. After being in the sea for a hundred years, it must be all over, which made him a little disappointed.
Not all wines are more precious the longer they are stored. Qin Shiou is someone who plans to make wine anyway. He did a little research on this kind of wine, knowing that wine generally cannot be kept for long.
In the eyes of wine tasting masters. Like people, wine goes through stages of growth, maturation, and aging. They have no shelf life, and there is a drinkable period. It is best to drink within this period. You can drink it later, and the taste will deteriorate.
Drinking wine is for taste and health care. If the wine tastes bad and is not good for the body, then no one will drink this wine.
As far as Qin Shiou knows, the drinking period of general wine is 5 to 10 years, and the best wine needs to be stored for 8 to 10 years to have mature charm, so the storage time is longer.
However, there are also very few particularly excellent wines that can be stored for decades or even hundreds of years when stored properly, but this kind of wine is rare. Qin Shiou checked the information at the time and found that the century-old cellared wines that have appeared in these years are about ten years old. At the time of the wedding of Prince William of England.
Poseidon's consciousness scrolled these wine barrels, and the oak wine barrels immediately turned into fragments as soon as they encountered an impact. After a hundred years of attack, although the wine barrels were still intact, they were actually decayed.
The barrel was broken, and the liquid mixed into the sea water was really various, and some were black, and I didn’t know what was in it.
Swept away these oak wine barrels, Qin Shiou was about to leave, but suddenly found that there were still several small barrels in the innermost part of the wine barrel.
There are only four of these small barrels, which are about thirty centimeters high. They look short, chubby, cute, and Q. They are different from the surrounding large barrels. There is a layer of paint on the outside, two bright yellow gold paints and two snow white silver paints, which are quite precious at first glance.
Qin Shiou looked over, and felt that the four small wine barrels should be unusual. The words Chateau-Petrus were hollowed out on the wine barrels, and there were no other signs besides them.
I found four squids. They rolled up four small wine barrels and floated out. They found a flat place on the bottom of the sea and put them down. There were also some small boxes and cabinets, all of which were squids some time ago. May be precious things that we have collected.
Leaving the storage bin, Qin Shiou went to the first-class cabin. This place was once decorated with fine wood paneling, high-end furniture and various other high-end decorations, but after 100 years of seawater erosion, the first-class cabin became dilapidated.
There are indeed some gold and silver ornaments that have not yet rusted, but they also become mottled because microorganisms can adhere to them and grow.
Mosquitoes have meat no matter how small they are. Qin Shiou found a group of squids to come in, took all the gold and silver jewelry and collected them outside.
This is probably the last time I have been on the Titanic, and Qin Shiou deliberately went to the first-class staircase to take a look.
At this time, the most luxurious place on the ship is located between the first and second chimneys. The grand staircase that was once equipped with oak panelling and gilded railings extends to the E deck. The top is a glass dome supported by wrought iron brackets, regardless of the day. It's still night, as long as there is light, it can fall here.
Even if I look at it now, Qin Shiou can still feel its majesty, and then after feeling it, continue to search for the gold and silver jewelry on the grand staircase, and let the squid take it out when found... (to be continued~^~)
