Chapter 227 Yongle Grand Ceremony is born.

He Minggui received the notice, summoned all the personnel, rushed to the broadcast room, and stared nervously at the screen of the shared detector.

After boarding the ship, Chen Ye told him the real point location. In fact, he had already detected it, which made him feel that there was a deep routine.

As for whether what Chen Ye said is true, do you still have to doubt it? A boss worth billions and a group of archaeological men are doing random detection for fun?

And it's already this time, what's the benefit of lying to him?

Except for He Minggui and those from Chen Ye's company who were participating for the first time, the other archaeological team members seemed lacking in quality.

After all, they had enough disappointments, and there was no clear evidence, so they thought it would be better to fetch water from a bamboo basket and conduct blind exploration for a while.

"Call Mr. Chen! Call Mr. Chen! Our department is currently far away from the coast of Kenya.

Good news! The detection department found a ship-shaped bulge at a distance of 21 degrees, 0.5 nautical miles, and a depth of 820 meters from the left front of our ship's bow.

The object is about 140 meters long and over 50 meters wide. It is almost certain that we have found the treasure ship you mentioned.

The corresponding detection drawing graphics have been shared with you, completed!"

"Really?"

"OK!!!!"

"We're not going to witness history, are we? That camera guy, please let me show my face."

"The detected shape really looks like a ship!"

There was a round of applause. After such a long salvage, there was suddenly hope. Everyone who was listless just now became enthusiastic and excited.

Looking at the three-dimensional graphics on the screen, the shape is indeed very similar to the ship, but it is wrapped in too much mud.

"Captain, please move the ship above the target area, over."

"OK Mr. Chen, let's start now."

"The detector team reported the situation, completed."

"Mr. Chen, all indicators of the detector are normal and can be launched into the water. It's over."

"Okay! Get into the water! Finished."

Chen Ye turned to the side of the camera that the company employees had pointed at him, stared at the screen, held the walkie-talkie in his hand, and issued instructions one after another.

Not to mention that the environment and experience make people grow up. Chen Ye, who shuttled between the two worlds and conducted various random experiments in the Ming Dynasty, is as stable as an old dog when facing these scenes.

The lens appears at the stern of the ship. As the waves surge and cover the lens, the underwater world appears before our eyes. The depth is getting deeper and deeper, and the visibility is getting lower and lower.

After the depth deepened, the detector also turned on the light, and the Indian Ocean fish that grew casually and played around curiously moved around the camera.

It wasn't until the depth of 800 meters that a Big Mac appeared.

"This is truly a shocking discovery for the world!"

"God, how powerful is our boss? If he came here based on a document without confirming that there is a sunken ship here, I wouldn't believe it if he were killed."

"It's unimaginable! This is a sailboat from nearly 600 years ago. It is hundreds of meters long. How can it remain intact with only wood? How can it be driven by human power."

"Mr. Chen, this will definitely be the greatest discovery of underwater cultural relics in modern times!"

All the employees of the archaeological team, as well as the employees of Chen Ye's company, were almost stunned as they looked at the sunken ship, which was getting closer and closer and covered with silt.

"Mr. Chen, you really didn't lie to me."

"Mr. He, is the anti-oxidation working group ready?"

"We are ready, but are they really useful? With the sealing properties of Ming Dynasty items, can they withstand the pressure of the deep sea?"

He Minggui asked Chen Ye strangely that salvaging from the bottom of the sea was not as good as opening a tomb. It would be better to do it in a shallow sea, but this was obviously a deep sea.

At the 800-meter seabed, things have long been penetrated by water. Instead of preventing oxidation, it is better to consider whether it can still be touched.

Chen Ye shook his head and did not answer. The anti-oxidation work is also to destroy the original oxidation level of the entire book.

If this "prevention" is used well, the traces of hypoxia preservation in books can be made indistinguishable.

At that time, no matter what expert comes, they cannot say that there are no traces of anaerobic bacteria growing on it, and further doubt that the books have been stored for hundreds of years and have not oxidized rapidly when taken out.

Su Qing, who was standing next to Chen Ye, looked at the sunken ship on the screen with bright eyes and whispered softly.

"Porcelain, gold and silver jewelry, antiques, lots of antiques. It turns out that finding treasures is so exciting. No wonder so many people like treasure maps."

As the content on the screen gradually became clearer, all the archaeological team employees crowded to the front, and those on the three floors inside and three floors outside looked at the big screen.

There were tears in He Minggui's eyes.

"Treasure ship! This is really a treasure ship! It is more than a hundred meters long. This is my treasure of China!"

"The two balconies are very clear. The way the ship sank is so good! It is also well preserved and is of great research value."

"Everyone, please calm down. Let's take a look at what's important inside so we can carry out targeted salvage."

"Yes, yes, everyone, hurry up and prepare tools to protect cultural relics. These items have been under high pressure in the deep sea. Many of them may be saved."

As the underwater robot entered the main cabin, the faces of all the archaeologists turned ugly.

"Why is there nothing?"

"How is that possible? When a ship sinks, even if the supplies are rescued, it's impossible to move them all, right?"

"Mr. Chen?"

He Minggui asked Chen Ye doubtfully, a little suspicious in his heart, whether it was the big boss behind Chen Ye who had moved all the supplies and left an empty ship for them to excavate.

"According to records, this ship ran aground shortly after setting off after trading with the Mugudushu tribe. Since there was no one on the bottom of the ship, it was not discovered.

They didn't react until the ship's draft began to change, but the breach slowly broke and when they realized it, they might not have had time to reach the shore.

In order to ensure maximum value, the crew first discarded unimportant heavy items to reduce the weight of the ship, and then transported all valuable items to other ships in the fleet.

I left at the end, and now after more than six hundred years of wind and frost, everything else on the ship is completely rotten and I can’t find anything. Isn’t that surprising?”

"Mr. Chen... is right."

He Minggui was full of disbelief when he heard this story, but this was also Chen Ye's business, and there was no evidence to prove that Chen Ye and the others had swallowed cultural relics.

Turn around and think about it, what does this have to do with yourself?

"It seems that only the boat has salvage value, but that's good.

Through this treasure ship, we can completely study the structure of the most mysterious giant treasure ship in Ming Dynasty shipbuilding.

Where did the trees used for his keel come from? You can study the log transportation at that time and so on."

He Minggui looked at the wreckage of the treasure ship, which was covered with mud and coral reefs. The mottled appearance on it proved the wind and frost he had experienced.

"No, the coral reefs on this ship, why do they look like the style of the northern Pacific?"

Among the archaeological team, an oceanographer looked at the coral reef passing by the camera and discovered a strange focus.

Chen Ye's heart skipped a beat and he forgot about this. Different ocean climates correspond to different marine creatures. Every line is like a mountain, but professionals can see it at a glance.

"Maybe it was brought here by treasure ships? Brother, this is a research direction. Are you willing to work in our company?

I can provide funding for you to study the causes of this phenomenon, and you will be the first person to sign the paper."

"Really? I do. Thank you, Mr. Chen, thank you, Mr. Chen."

Chen Ye patted the doctor of hydrology and oceanography. Chen Ye was so sincere that he believed him, and the doctor of oceanography thanked him profusely.

Anyway, this ship will fall apart when touched. These experts will understand it after studying it, and no one will doubt that this ship is not this.

This kind of biological phenomenon that spans the ocean can create many papers and continue to increase the visibility of Chen Ye's company in professional circles.

What a win, what a win.

Except for Dr. Ocean, the other archaeological team members stared at the sunken ship, full of unwillingness and disappointment. Even if the ship was empty, the research value was not without it, and it was even very valuable.

But compared to the exquisite cultural relics, the blind-boxed treasure chests, the carefulness to protect the cultural relics, and the clicking sound of the film, the empty ship is obviously not interesting.

Chen Ye also noticed this, clapped his hands to silence everyone, looked at the camera, found the angle, and said in a deep voice.

"The reason why I spent a lot of money and asked you to accompany me to search for this sunken ship that I spent a lot of money to buy is definitely not just for a treasure ship.

Otherwise, there is no need to go to such trouble. You only need to detect it in place and restore it based on the shape image. Isn’t it better than running in vain?

In fact, there is an important reason, that is, according to records, this ship carried a coffin-like, completely sealed iron box made by Ming Dynasty craftsmen.

This iron box was clearly recorded on the travel gift list. It contained a complete set of Yongle Dadian, and it was the first set of Yongle Dadian rubbings.

At that time, Emperor Yongle asked Zheng He to sail to the West to read out the Holy Will. If there were any Chinese people along the way who had been looking forward to Master Wang, he would give them the Yongle Grand Ceremony and read out the Holy Will.

Unfortunately, as everyone knows, Zheng He made several voyages to the West and never met anyone who had the Ming Dynasty in his heart.

As this iron box weighed hundreds of kilograms, it could not be moved quickly. The ship was about to sink, and the sailors could not take care of it, so they let it sink to the bottom of the sea with the ship.

The reason why I bought this record was because of the Yongle Dadian, an encyclopedia of the Ming Dynasty.

He recorded countless Chinese cultural heritage, medicine, music, smelting, history, education, astronomy, and everything in between.

It is a treasure of our Chinese nation, and as a Chinese, I have the responsibility and obligation to take it home."

"Wow!"

There was an uproar in an instant. After confirming that there was indeed a ship below, they now believed everything Chen Ye said.

"Mr. Chen! Well done!"

The applause started again, and Chen Ye looked at the camera with a smile.

This image of sunshine and the applause of the team members must be photographed by me.

The operator of the unmanned detector who received the message controlled the detector and smashed the corroded wooden door along the wooden door of the cabin with a light bump. After getting in, he found that it was empty and moved on to the next one.

Finally, in the upper cabin at the stern of the ship, after opening the door, a box-shaped object covered with mud and dirt came into view.

"The robot hand gently pushes away the dirt on it. Don't use too much force. It may be another box."
