Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 652 Travel
Because the two most valuable points about the shipwreck have now been dug out, so Liang En can let the whole salvage team run by itself to continue the salvage work.

If his memory serves him right, the Fisher family's salvage operation in another world has been going on for nearly 40 years since they found these things.

Liang En himself naturally didn't have that much energy to spend here all the time, so it became inevitable to find someone to take charge of this aspect, and the establishment of this salvage company was also related to this plan.

After all, for Liang En, if he is only doing short-term salvage work, he can apply for a license and rent a boat to salvage. But for long-term operations, it is naturally necessary to establish a salvage company.

It was also because of this company that Liang En fell into thinking when Elizabeth Bathory suggested putting the museum in Florida.

Because in his opinion, if the museum is set up in Florida, then the fleet and even the entire salvage company will naturally be part of the museum, which can save a lot of money and energy.

And if the museum is located in New York, you will naturally not be able to enjoy these benefits, let alone the local favor that can be obtained after the museum is located in the local area, and it is also more convenient in the salvage process.

Since it will take at least one month for the final decision of these two plans, Liang En still has enough time to consider this matter, and there is no need to make a choice immediately.

After signing a series of documents with the American personnel, Liang En's salvage work can come to an end this time, but then he didn't go home directly, but chose to stay here for a few days.

As the southernmost city in the continental United States, although Key West is only a small city, it can be regarded as a very famous tourist city.The overall area is only 19.2 square kilometers, but there is an endless stream of tourists every year.

People from all over the world come here to witness the strategic location of the United States only 90 miles away from Cuba, to see Hemingway's former residence, to visit Truman's Little White House, and to appreciate the style of the streets and corners.

Despite the small size of this place, there are many attractions. Except Hemingway's former residence and the Little White House where Truman recuperated, whether it is the ancient aquarium, the ghost tombstone or the shipwreck treasure museum are all worth visiting.

Liang En focused on observing the Shipwreck Treasure Museum, which commemorates the sunken ships found in the surrounding area, and collects and protects those discovered historical items.

In the golden age of sailing, about 100 ships passed through Key West every day. The water route they took was one of the most dangerous places in the world. Therefore, on average, about one ship sank on the edge of Key West's atolls every day.

More than 400 years have passed, and it is impossible to count how many ships have sunk here, and some of the salvaged items that were found are now placed in this museum.

The entire museum was filled with various cultural relics, but Liang En found that the overall value of the cultural relics on display was not high after taking a closer look. They were just some daily necessities or models on the ship.

It was also because the things in the museum were not very attractive, so Liang En found that the tourists did not stay here for a long time, and the consumption in the store was not too high.

In fact, if it weren't for the mediocre quality and quantity of the cultural relics in this museum, and the low cost of maintenance, the museum would definitely lose money every year.

However, the situation of the museum is not much better now. When the profit is the highest, it is at most two or three thousand dollars a month.

For the Florida side, this museum that can only bring in less than $1 in net income per year but has a lot of things is obviously not suitable for long-term holding.

Therefore, according to the conditions given by Florida, if Liang En is willing to ensure that the museum can be opened normally as it is now, then the museum will be sold to Liang En at the cost price.

According to Liang En's analysis, the overall situation of this museum is actually good, at least if the number of tourists is compared with the size of the museum, it should be considered more rather than less.

But the problem now is that the exhibits in this museum are so unattractive that these not-so-small traffic cannot be converted into economic benefits.

In other words, if Liang En received the museum in the future and organically combined the precious items salvaged this time, he should be able to convert the current flow of people into income.

After all, this place is very good both in terms of reputation and location. The only problem is that although the exhibits inside are more valuable from the perspective of history and archeology, they are really unfriendly to ordinary audiences.

For example, some bottles and jars and some ship parts on display here are unremarkable. If it was Liang En, he could see some things about the age of these cultural relics, but to ordinary people, these things look more like Rubbish.

And what Liang En and the others salvaged this time can just make up for this biggest flaw. Even people who don't know much about history can still appreciate those gold, gemstones and jewelry.

In addition to admiring the scenery, Liang En and the others also tasted a lot of food full of Caribbean flavor. As the closest place to Cuba in the United States, there are a large number of Cuban immigrants here, and the natural food flavor also has a Caribbean style.

At the same time, because this area is an island, all kinds of ingredients with seafood as the main material are very cheap, and although Ireland, where Liang En lived before, is also an island, the biodiversity there is far less than here.

After all, Ireland's latitude is relatively high, and the lower temperature makes the species there more monotonous, so except for the common cod, flounder or some seafood such as shellfish, the rest can only be imported.

But the problem lies in the well-known fact that seafood is a standard food that needs to be eaten fresh, and the taste of long-distance air transport is far better than that of those that are not freshly caught.

At least Liang En thinks that the local baked lobster with cheese is indeed better than the high-end restaurant in Ireland, and the price is also cheaper.

"When are we going back?" Joan of Arc, who was lying on a beach chair wearing a very conservative swimsuit, asked after taking a sip of coconut juice while she was sitting on a beach lounge chair basking in the sun.

"I think two or three weeks is better, after all, compared to here, Ireland is wet and cold." Liang En stretched his waist and said. "More importantly, there is no one when I go back now. My parents went to Marseille for vacation, and they will not return to Ireland until the weather gets warmer."

"Besides, staying here now will not hinder my future work. Anyway, for me, no matter whether I am writing a thesis or a novel, as long as I have a computer and the Internet, it will be the same anywhere."

For Liang En, his current core personality is a scholar, so there must be various papers. Taking advantage of the opportunity of vacation here, he can just write a few useful papers about this salvage Continue to brush reputation.
