Butler took Qin Shiou for dinner, it was a snack street, not a high-end restaurant in a big hotel.
Of course, this is not the same as the street in St. John’s where there are all food stalls, but a street full of exquisite restaurants, with a variety of flavors.
A few days later, for lunch and dinner, Qin Shiou and the fishermen ate on this street and tasted the delicacies of all nations.
At the whale baleen restaurant, he drank the local vanilla juice from Miami and ate the Asian-style black bean snapper coconut rice.
In the Pigeon Restaurant, a small restaurant focusing on Swiss continental cuisine, he tasted Swiss-style lamb chops, Sabina tender steak, and roasted whole duck in orange sauce.
When I arrived at the Wishing Restaurant, I tasted a mixture of Latin American and tropical flavors. The taste of watermelon, coriander, sesame shrimp and smoked shiitake and herb sauce charcoal scallops was great. Qin Shiou and the fishermen were very addicted.
But the good times are always short. After four days ashore, Billy called: "Qin, I got something useful. Come and have a look."
Qin Shiou bid farewell to Butler and took the farewell ship back to the Bermuda waters to see the "useful things" Billy said.
Billy worked vigorously and resolutely. In just over four days, he completed the basic salvage of the two sunken ships, and almost all valuable items were salvaged.
As soon as he got on the salvage boat, what Qin Shiou first saw was a large pile of gold and silver coins being processed by the staff.
As he was worried, these gold and silver coins have been rusted out of shape, and most of them are several glued together.
Billy came over to hug Qin Shiou, and Qin Shiou handed him the insulation box. Said: "Inside is our Chinese roast duck. Let's heat it up and eat it. I guess you might not eat well at sea these days."
When he heard this, Billy suddenly smiled and said, "Good buddy. I really love you. You don't know what **** thing I eat these days! Burgers, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, damn, all It's these. It's all these!"
Opening the heat preservation box, Billy did not heat up, and directly rolled the roast duck into the cake and dipped it in the sauce and ate it. In addition to roast duck, Qin Shiou also brought delicious food such as Sixi meatballs and Mexican grilled steak, which were all packed in the snack street, and there was a pile in the refrigerator.
These things may be frozen and reheated, and the taste will be worse, but they are also much better than burgers and pizza.
Qin Shiou went to look at the gold and silver coins. After turning around, he shook his head and said, "It seems that these things can't be sold for much."
Billy's mouth was stuffed with steak and vaguely cursed: "Damn the United States, the **** Mint, they must have cut corners! Faq, the copper and iron content in these gold and silver coins is absolutely excessive, otherwise it will not rust like this. !"
Qin Shiou said: "How much can gold and silver coins sell for?"
Billy swallowed the steak and thought for a while and said, "Twenty million, right? You have to look at Little Black's channel. If the channel is good, it can double to 40 million. If all goes to auction, it's only 20 million. ."
"Canadian Dollar?"
"Dollar."
Qin Shiou stunned: "Can it be worth so much?"
Billy laughed. He took Qin Shiou to the captain’s room and opened a safe. Inside were stacks of neatly arranged gold and silver coins. These coins were well preserved and occasionally rusted, but the overall quality was good.
"I'm talking about these. They have existed for more than two hundred and fifty years. One is worth at least ten thousand dollars!" Billy said triumphantly.
But then he became unhappy again: "Fak, if the salvaged gold coins are so well protected, then my good buddy. We harvested more than 500 million dollars this time!"
Billy gritted his teeth as he spoke. Turning around, he criticized the Mint for being too guilty, and even used copper and iron to pretend to be gold and silver to deceive taxpayers.
Qin Shiou was satisfied, and said, "That's not bad, man, is 20 million dollars not enough?"
Billy laughed and said, "Of course not enough, Qin, of course not enough! God knows this too, so he brought us another good thing. Come on, open your eyes with me!"
Qin Shiou thought that the good thing Billy said were gold and silver coins, but now it seems that is not the case.
The two went to the deck. There was a large box that was five or six meters long, two meters wide and more than two meters high, covered by a waterproof tarp. Billy asked to pull it open. Under the tarp was a transparent box, and the box was used The plastic wrap is wrapped around a large wooden sculpture.
The woodcarving is pitch black and about four meters long. It looks like a thick boa constrictor, but it looks very strange. Its head is like a crocodile, but it has horse-like ears and blade-like teeth. It also has sharp horns on its body. There are rough scales and a circle of lion's mane-like carvings under the nod.
"What is this?" Qin Shiou asked. He saw that this thing was a little different, and it was so scary that it was so dark that there was no value.
Billy stroked the box excitedly and said, "You can't believe it, man, this is a corner collision! Do you know a corner collision? Oh, of course, I'm nonsense. You must know this stuff, yes, This is a horn collision, a horn collision 500 years ago!"
I could tell that this thing should be quite valuable, and Billy was so excited when he saw it, talking nonsense.
Qin Shiou motioned him to calm down and asked him to talk about the greatness of a corner collision: "Of course it’s great! Man, of course it’s great! Do you know when this corner collision last appeared? At that time, Leonardo and Columbus were still alive!"
Billy patted the box, and when he reached the middle position, he asked Qin Shiou to look over: "Look, what is engraved on it?"
Qin Shiou took a closer look and found a line of English letters engraved on the back of the collision angle: Gribshunden.
"What do you mean?" He really didn't know the meaning of this sentence in English.
Billy said: "This is the name of the ship on which the collision is located! Gribshunden, the name of the flagship of the most famous Norwegian King John's sea fleet in the 15th century!"
"I checked the information. There was indeed such a collision angle on the Gribshunden. It was very famous at the time. The collision angle was called the'king's devil'."
"However, this ship sank to the bottom of the sea in a fire in 1495, and the collision angle disappeared. I thought it had been burned. It was a turbulent era and frequent wars. This ship caught fire in the harbor. A natural and man-made disaster, the fire destroyed all the ships in the port, frustrated King John's plan to unify Denmark, Norway and Sweden, and changed the history of the Middle Ages in Europe!"
"Now, man, we are standing with witnesses of history! Especially since it not only witnessed the Danish fire, but also witnessed the rise of the U.S. Navy!"
Qin Shiou understood this way. The horn was fished from the pirate flagship God’s Sword. It is estimated that the pirates did not know how to obtain it. It was installed on the flagship to frighten the enemy. The result is now theirs. Loot.
"Then how much is it worth?" Qin Shiou was still more concerned about this. (To be continued~^~)
