Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 216: Turn around

Based on the large amount of evidence that Lawrence found, everyone quickly determined the identity of the man who moved the ship. Obviously, the writer who bought this treasure record before Zhu Yan wrote that only his own escape was probably just a guess. There should have been another transcendent who was much higher than him.

  , the survivor later returned to this place again, took away the things originally hidden in the mezzanine, hid the entire ship wreck in the silt of the river mouth, and blasted the cabin near the mezzanine for cover.

   As for why the cabin was not completely blown to pieces, Lawrence felt that this was probably because the man who moved the ship felt that he would have a chance to come back in a short time, and he was just alone and couldn't carry too many things. Therefore, there is a fluke mentality to save the remaining wealth.

   But now from the results, it seems that something happened to that person, so he never returned here. So Lawrence and the others can find so much wealth in the wreckage.

"It always feels a bit strange to salvage things out of the water so plainly after a long journey." Although Lawrence intellectually knew that it would not take much effort like this, but a rewarding adventure is the most important thing for every adventurer. Hope to encounter the form of adventure, but he always feels that this kind of adventure seems to be missing something.

   Zhu Yan also looks a little regretful, for a person like him, pure wealth does not attract him much. What he really needs is to fight in the adventure to get further opportunities. Especially after the last trip to the astral plane, Okita Sakura successfully broke through the original level and became an official-level transcendent which made him quite excited.

   After a brief discussion about the things in the mezzanine and the guesses about the whereabouts of the people who took them away, it soon came to noon. At about 12 o'clock, a group of mermaids with human upper bodies and fish tails on their lower bodies appeared on the shoreline, and then a middle-aged merman turned the tail into legs and walked onto the beach.

   Soon, Zhu Yan stepped forward to negotiate with the other party. As the wreckage of the ship under the water has been basically detected, and the dangerous traps above are basically either removed or consumed by the monster shadow directly. So after checking this group of mermaids, they set a low price.

"I thought they would charge a big price." Watching the mermaid carry the treasures from the seabed a little bit ashore, Lawrence said to Zhu Yan, who was on the side with a little playfulness, "After all, most people can't salvage them from under the water. Something comes up, only they can do it quickly and well."

"But they will only charge a reasonable fee, my friend." Zhu Yan said with a smile, "This is why this city is so prosperous and there are so many people. But they have been able to monopolize the entire seat for more than 100 years. The reason for the underwater salvage business in the city and nearby areas."

   "Sure enough, honesty should be the foundation of business, no matter what the world is." After hearing Zhu Yan's words, Lawrence nodded in agreement. These offshore mermaids are average in terms of strength and number, and they can monopolize the entire region, this relatively profitable business, and the only thing they can rely on is a word of sincerity.

   But this time the mermaids didn't start working but were waiting for something. Soon, a flat-bottomed barge approached this place from the open sea, and the steam engine on the ship was still emitting white smoke.

   "The boat in my house is coming." Zhu Yan looked at the small barge and said. "It is too difficult to transport those things by land in this place, so I simply asked the family to come over by a boat, and when the things are picked up, they will be shipped directly on the boat."

"It's a good way." Lawrence nodded. Zhu Yan only said before that he was looking for someone to take this thing away. Lawrence originally thought he would find an extraordinary person to take it away with a large space bag, but now it seems that their home The main force has indeed been transferred to the north, so that now it can only rely on this ordinary method to transport items.

  Of course, this is also related to the wealth found this time mainly belongs to ordinary people. So even if there is an emergency space bag in Zhu Yan's house, he won't use it.

   "Since the respondent is here, then we can withdraw." Zhu Yan greeted the people on the barge and said, "Where are you going next? Do you have any plans?"

   "Not yet." Lawrence shook his head. This time he came to explore directly after receiving the letter, so he didn't have any travel plans. "If you have any good places to go, you can recommend it to us. After all, this is the first time we have visited the West Bank of the New World."

"There are many fun places in Xinzhou Republic." Zhu Yan said with a smile after thinking about it for a while, "Even the fun attractions near Xinhuiji can allow you to enjoy it in a month or two. I really want to recommend it to you. If so, I don’t know which type of attraction I should recommend to you."

   When I heard that there were many attractions, Lawrence and Syphile suddenly became more energetic. Although this adventure is not enough ups and downs for them, it is a good choice to take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy the exotic scenery. But when they didn't say what kind of attractions they wanted to see, Lawrence suddenly focused on a mermaid who was going ashore.

"In fact, you can visit the Confucius Temple in Xin Kuaiji. As a god, he is very kind, allowing people to live or do business on the edge of his temple, and is willing to shelter those who live nearby and abide by his creed, so the new The Confucius Temple in Kuaiji is the most prosperous place in the city—"Zhu Yan gushed on the nearby attractions, but when he said this, he saw Lawrence staring straight behind him.

   Zhu Yan, who felt a little curious, turned his head and looked in the direction of his vision, only to see Lawrence staring at a golden box the size of a briefcase in the hands of a mermaid.

"Brother rest assured, we will divide these finances equally at that time." Zhu Yan put his hand on Lawrence's shoulder and said, before shaking the boat together to search, the relationship between the two people became familiar again~www.mtlnovel .com~ So when I get along, I also feel a lot more casual. "If you like this like this golden box, I will give it to you then."

   "It's not the problem." Lawrence said to the people who followed as he walked there, "I searched all the cabins before, but I have never seen this thing."

   "Could it be that you didn't find it?" As soon as Zhu Yan uttered these words, Saifeier expressed different views on the side. "Impossible, this golden box is so big and looks so conspicuous. Bookworm-Lawrence can't ignore such things, if it's some gadgets or some inconspicuous things, it is possible."

   "That's right." The reason was reasonable, so Zhu Yan was convinced. Then he stepped forward to ask the celebrity fish the origin of the box.

"This is what we found around the wreck, more than 20 meters away from the main body of the wreck." As the mermaid put the box on the beach, looking at his posture and the sound of the box landing, we knew that the shell of the box should be very thin, but because of its size The problem is not light. "If it weren't for this thing made of gold heavy enough to sink into the silt, it might have been washed away by the current."

   After the celebrity fish simply explained that they went into the water again, Lawrence and the others immediately surrounded the golden box. Because no matter it is the texture, size and decoration of this box, it is extraordinary.

   "This box looks like some kind of valuables." Lawrence made a simple judgment after seeing the box for the first time. "Maybe this is one of the things missing in that mezzanine."
