Chapter 3: Heroes Mountain Lao Hai

I thought about it and thought that no matter how I came, I would have to ask for one million, Dakui's family would have to give 300,000 yuan. Pan Zi would have to be hospitalized for at least 200,000 yuan. The fat man had already left a message and sold the goods to him for money. In this way, a person would have to share more than 100,000 yuan. When he remembered that he had fought back with his life, he couldn't help but feel that there were too few. However, Uncle San said that fighting was such a thing, otherwise why did he pour one after another? No matter how precious the things you could bring out, no one bought them, it was still garbage, so he didn't take them even if he took them, and he couldn't sell them even if he took them.

I estimated that 1 million was almost the same, so I made a gesture to Lao Hai. He couldn't help but be happy and nodded quickly and said that there was no problem.

I felt a little depressed when I saw it. Did I get a low report?

He asked me to wait, hid in the corner and made a call softly. After calling, his face turned red happily and said, "It's done! It's done! Master Wu, you are lucky. There are really people waiting to ask for this thing. This 1 million is not high, and 2 million is not low. I'll claim 1.2 million for you. What do you think?"

When I heard that I had 200,000 more than I expected, I had nothing to say. I had to ask myself to suffer losses, so I nodded and agreed to the deal and asked him how to calculate the introduction fee.

He smiled and said, "To be honest, I have prepared more for me. You can collect the 1.2 million yuan for the first time. We will make friends with the first transaction. Next time we have such things, don't ask others' houses and send them to me directly. I will raise 20% of the price you want. You must know that the customer behind me is rich. He dares to collect things that others dare not accept."

Seeing that I was a little anxious, he hurriedly said, "Sit for a while, I will prepare money for you. Don't look at my shop being small and there is no shortage in the account. I'll give it to you first."

I was worried about how to collect the money. Seeing that he was so happy and just as I wanted, I nodded and said, "That's good, I just need to hurry up. Then I'll be in trouble."

Lao Hai nodded, called out, called the little girl outside in, and sent her to get a cash check of 1.2 million yuan.

The girl looked at me in surprise, and ran out without saying much. Lao Hai said again, "Master Wu, you can't pour out this thing this time. Do you have any good things to keep? If you don't dislike me, just give me some of them to see."

I didn't want to say more to him, but when I talked about it, I remembered the two copper fishes of Uncle San, so I described it to him. When he heard it, his face changed, and he lowered his voice and asked me, "Do you really have this thing?"

I saw that his expression changed and thought there was a chance, so I asked, "Of course, why, boss, do you know the origin of this thing?"

Lao Hai shook his head, his expression was strange. He thought for a while and said, "Master Wu, don't tell me what I told you. Although I don't know the origin of these two fish, I know that there is a person who is buying at a very high price. You will never imagine how high the price is. Even a person like me who trades tens of millions a year will not dare to take over his business. If you really have this thing, I advise you not to do it, and you will be rich and powerful."

After hearing this, I asked, "Do you know who that person is? To be honest, I just want to know what this thing is for. I don't mind the rest."

Lao Hai shook his head: "I have never seen it. He is a woman, with her surname Huo. I don't know anything else. Moreover, even if we know about our rules and customer information, we can't tell you."

Seeing that he was determined, I knew that he would have to stop asking again, so I had to give up. The two talked about something else and the check was delivered. After checking, I stood up and said goodbye, and the business was completed like this.

In the next few days, I found a local tour guide and went around Jinan for a walk. However, I came from Hangzhou and saw too many cultural scenes. The more I looked, the less interested I became. Later, I simply went to a fishing plant to get fish.

Another week passed, and was interrupted by two uninvited guests.

That day, as usual, I came back from the fishing plant. As soon as I entered the hotel, a waiter came over and said, "Mr. Wu, there are two people looking for you."

I was stunned. Only Uncle San knew about me in this hotel. Could it be that he was back? No, Uncle San himself also has the key. When he comes back, he will definitely go straight into the room and wait for me in the lobby?

I found it strange, so I asked her where she was. She pointed to the hotel lobby lounge on the side.

I walked over with her, but saw a man and a woman sitting there, looking very strange.

When the two of them saw me coming, they both stood up. The man stretched out his hand and shook it with me and asked, "Mr. Wu?"

I nodded and looked at him. He was a slightly fat man in his thirties. He was a little bald, but his body was clean and he couldn't tell what his profession was. The woman was wearing a lace shirt with buttons spreading to her chest, and the waves were surging. I didn't dare to look at it, so I asked them, "Are you two..."

The man handed me a business card, and I saw it: International Marine Resources Development Company

When I saw it, I felt a little confused. The so-called marine resource development is actually based on the analysis of various existing route information and historical records to infer the location of certain shipwrecks and salvage shipwreck materials.

This kind of transaction has existed since ancient times, but the real boom was after reform and development. At that time, when the so-called Nanyang fishing for the northwest and a large number of tomb robbers flocked to the ancient tombs in the northwest, a large number of cultural relics from abroad gathered on the Maritime Silk Road in the South China Sea. In a few years, almost all shipwrecked the shipwrecks near China.

Compared with Tushizi, these people are more harmful to the entire archaeology. Because of the large loading of ships, there has been a saying that "one ship has ten tombs" since ancient times. Usually, an ordinary medium-sized merchant ship can carry more than 100,000 pieces of porcelain, and the benefits obtained by salvage are astronomical. Therefore, compared with them, the tomb robber of the third uncle can only be considered a small fuss.

I think the reason is that I have never interacted with such people. What do they come to me for? And only Uncle San knows about my affairs here, and how did they find me.

The man couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when I saw him not talking, and smiled awkwardly: "You probably think it's a bit abrupt for us to come to you like this, but you will know what happened after hearing our purpose."

I still didn't say anything and looked at him without comment. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "It's actually very simple. Last week, a gentleman named Wu Sansheng came to us..."

I said "Oh" and suddenly realized that this was really obvious. Only Uncle San knew about my whereabouts here. Then they came to me, and it must be related to Uncle San.

Seeing that I had a reaction, his face calmed down a little, and continued, "Mr. Wu Sansheng and our boss are very good friends. After they met, they had a detailed discussion. I was also present at that time. Mr. Wu Sansheng told us a very interesting story about a possible existence... an ancient tomb under the sea. I don't know if Mr. Wu knows this?"

Seeing that he was talking hesitantly and was very unhappy, I made a gesture and said, "You don't have to pay attention to how much I know. Please tell me the matter simply."

He glanced at the woman next to him, as if asking for instructions. The woman nodded, and then said, "Yes, then I will try to make it simpler - Mr. Wu Sansheng proposed to jointly develop this undersea ruins with us. Because the clues he provided were very convincing, our board of directors agreed that our company lent him some idle equipment and personnel in the form of a layered guarantee to search for the sea area near the North Reef. At the beginning, the situation was smooth, until five o'clock the day before yesterday, their ship suddenly disappeared on the satellite positioning system and has not appeared until now."

His Mandarin has a very strong Cantonese accent. I don’t understand it very well, but I roughly know what happened. Uncle San seemed to have gone to the Xisha. He had no experience in going to sea, so he prepared ships and equipment through this international marine resource development company. As a result, the ship disappeared after going to sea.

I had a rough idea in my mind, but when something happened suddenly, I didn't feel very worried. I asked the bald man, "Can there be something wrong with the instrument on the ship? It caused the satellite signal to be unable to be received?"

He patiently explained to me: "No, it won't be a malfunction. This kind of instrument is very complicated and it's hard for me to explain it clearly to you, but it can be compared to this kind of metaphor that this satellite positioning system is actually the black box on the ship. Unless it is seriously injured, it will not be easily damaged, so this situation is very abnormal. Something must have happened on the ship."

I looked at him and said, "A company of such a big one, you should go to rescue me if something happens. What should I do?"

The man shook his head: "I'm sorry, we've searched for it. After 48 hours of their disappearance, our ship had already searched the missing sea area, but found nothing. The ship seemed to have disappeared out of thin air."

He looked very strange when he said it, and it seemed that he didn't believe in his words. He added: "Of course, how could the ship disappear out of thin air? I think it might have encountered some accident."

I smiled and said bluntly: "Please pay attention to the point of my problem. It is not what you have found, but what you are coming to me. Please tell me directly."

The two people looked at each other with awkward expressions. In the end, the man spoke: "That's right. Now there are clues that your third uncle and the other two people had found the exact location of the ancient ruins three hours before the ship disappeared and were doing preparations before entering. So... According to time calculations, your third uncle should not be on the ship when the ship disappeared, but in the ruins underwater..."

I was suddenly shocked and understood what he meant. Uncle San entered the undersea ruins, but the support from the sea suddenly disappeared. Even if they could come out smoothly, they would still be in a dilemma - there was no ship on the sea.

This is really a very tricky thing.

The woman saw my expression change and immediately continued: "We estimate that the survey ship may have been hijacked by pirates. If the three inspectors on the ship had entered the site at that time, they might have survived, but because they lost sea support, their situation would not be much better. You know, they could not swim back."

I said oh, and asked them, "After they completed the inspection, they should return the same way. At that time, your rescue ships should be able to find them?"

The woman was silent for a moment and said, "In fact, in the early discussion, Mr. Wu Sansheng estimated that there was a certain amount of air in this underwater ruin. If they found that the air could breathe, they would stay in it for a while to prepare for the second entry. Therefore, it is very likely that the people in the ruins do not know that the ship above has disappeared."

"You mean, Uncle San already knows how to enter this tomb?" I asked in surprise, how is this possible, how did he solve that key problem.

The woman shook her head: "I'm not an expert in this area, I don't know what you're talking about."

I rubbed my temples and hadn't used my brain for a long time. I had a headache. I sorted out these things in my mind and asked them: "What's the point of you coming to me? What can I do in this?"

The man said, "We plan to send another team of people down and bring the people inside."

I thought about it and said with a smile: "There is no need. After the people inside finish their work, they will come out by themselves. Now you just need to wait for them on the nearby sea."

The man shook his head and said, "This is no longer possible now, because in that place, a low pressure mass suddenly appeared, and soon the sea area will..."

I naturally know what happens when a low pressure mass appears on the sea. If the air mass is small, a tropical storm will appear on the sea. If it is a little bigger, I don’t know what kind of typhoon will occur. In such a climate, let alone rescue, it is impossible to park the ship there.

The man continued, "Mr. Wu, now you understand the whole thing. We estimate that in terms of time, we have at least three days. The most difficult situation now is not the climate on the sea, but we don't know where the entrance to the ruins is. The last part of the water located in GPS is three square miles. We need someone to help us find the exact location of the ruins. It is related to your relatives, I don't think you will refuse..."

I was calm on the surface, but I knew in my heart that I had to go. Compared with others, I still had a little understanding of this matter, and even if I couldn't help, I could still do some auxiliary work there.

However, I always feel that there is a hint of undetectable cunning in the expressions of these two people, as if there is nothing left to explain clearly.

Out of caution, I did not express my opinion immediately. I first smiled and asked, "The three square miles are not very big, why do you notify the coast guard?"

When I asked these words, their faces became ugly at the same time. They looked at each other and didn't know how to answer me.
