I Have a Little Black Hole

After walking around, Lei Tiantang took Kayla, who was in a good mood, into the helicopter on the boat, ready to take a good look at the sea scenery when the sun went down.

On the second day, all the employees on the ship started to get busy, because today the salvage work of the sunken ship will officially start. The work of the submarine dive yesterday afternoon was the last preparation work. Before Lei Tiantang came They have already done almost all the work that needs to be done.

Powell took the walkie-talkie and commanded in the captain's room in an orderly manner. Although this was the first time he used such an advanced salvage boat to carry out salvage operations, his rich experience still allowed him to arrange various tasks properly.

Lei Tiantang and Kayla were also in the captain's room. They didn't bother Powell and the others who were working. They just sat in front of the big screen of the monitor and watched the live footage of the scene. Here you can see all the details. If it was on the deck If you look at it, there is very little you can see.

The Strait of Malacca is the Golden Seaway connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. It has an extremely important strategic position in international politics, military, economic and trade, both ancient and modern.

From the beginning of the 16th century to the 1800s, the early colonial powers—Portugal, Holland, England, etc., seized the sea power in the Indian Ocean, consolidated their colonial rule in India, and controlled the spices in the Southeast Asian archipelago and the spices in the peninsula. The acquisition of tin and other commodities, trade monopoly.

And then based on Southeast Asia, invaded China, opened up the Chinese and East Asian markets, and launched a long-term battle around the Strait of Malacca. The early colonists competed for the Strait of Malacca with the purpose of expanding colonies, strengthening economic plunder, and expanding raw materials and resources. Market.

At that time, cargo ships, ranging from sailboats to steam engines, etc., had few means to resist various natural disasters and other disasters that could sink cargo ships.

And in those days, pirates near Malacca were very rampant. They would rob all kinds of cargo ships passing by. Especially after the artillery technology became more and more mature, the pirates had a higher success rate of robbing, but sometimes these pirates would also be different. These cargo ships were sunk carefully, so the number of sunk cargo ships on this busy route is very amazing.

Although shipwrecks are often found on this route, and many salvage companies have gained a lot of money, but compared with the sunken ships that are still sunk on the seabed, the salvaged shipwrecks are simply nine cows and one will. The sunken ship they are salvaging now is such a cargo ship in the early 19th century. The reason why such a sunken ship can be located at one time is mainly due to the strength of the employees of the salvage company.

Stimulated by the huge dividends, none of the employees of the salvage company are lazy. When there is no salvage task, all employees are on duty. They search various libraries and the Internet for information about possible shipwrecks, and then send people secretly. Investigate the wreck.

If there is a preliminary finding, the investigating staff will report it immediately, and the company will immediately send professionals to do further survey work. After the existence of the sunken ship is officially confirmed, the company will send a salvage boat to salvage it. This is what they salvage now. The reason why this wreck can be hit in one hit.

You may find it strange that in such a money-oriented country, employees still have this kind of loyalty? Now that the shipwreck has been discovered, why not sell the news? Or is it not better to salvage it secretly?

But of course the employees are not fools. If they find the situation and report it immediately, the company will immediately issue a large bonus. This bonus may be slightly lower than the money for selling intelligence, but this money can be spent in an open and honest way. And if there is a harvest from the sinking, they can also get a lot of dividends. If the two are added together, the money will definitely be much more than what they get from selling intelligence.

As for salvaging them secretly, this is even more impossible. You must know why their salvage company was taken down by Lei Tiantang? It's not because the company lost money on several salvage operations! There are very few salvage companies that really make money.

What's more, if you salvage it yourself, you will need to invest at least several hundred thousand dollars in the initial stage. Not everyone can take out such a large amount of money. Moreover, if you have a harvest, you may be hacked, if you don't have any means. , that almost 100% of them will be hacked and harvested, and no one will stand up for them.

Even if there is a gain, and you are not hacked, then you still have to share the gain with others. In the end, the gain may not have been reported to the company honestly, and then you will gain more with bonuses and dividends. Everyone is not a fool. People who have worked in this industry for a while will count.

Because the preparations were done very well, and at the same time, this salvage operation was a destructive salvage, only salvaging valuable things, so the whole salvage work progressed very quickly.

Before the afternoon, the salvage work of the cargo ship was all completed. After the robot checked it with the underwater camera, the first salvage operation of the 'Deep Sea Giant Demon' was over.

Lei Tiantang was speechless when he watched Kayla happily sorting out the harvest with the company's employees in the warehouse. The main reason was that the salvage income was very small in his opinion, and he didn't know how to complain. good.

This is a cargo ship that mainly carries spices. Of course, spices are not required, so the valuable goods salvaged are mainly from the captain's private warehouse and the private collection of some crew members.

About tens of kilograms of gold, some unprocessed diamonds, these gold and diamonds may have been obtained by the captain from Asan, and some metal coins from the 18th to 19th centuries, both gold and silver coins, but the amount is not large. More, together it is estimated that there are about 2000 pieces.

What interests Kayla are the cultural relics in the captain's private warehouse. There are several golden Buddha statues and some wood carvings. These wood carvings can be soaked in sea water for such a long time without damage. It is estimated that the materials are also good.

Boss, we have made a preliminary estimate. This time the harvest is between 8.5 million US dollars and 10 million US dollars. The specific number will not be known until all these items are sold, but the difference should not be too big! After more than half an hour, Powell reported the harvest to Lei Tiantang who was standing aside.

I'm going! This time we've gone overseas and the cost is estimated to be 5 million US dollars! We have to pay taxes, and then everyone will get a share. In the end, it is estimated that the boss will have 500,000 US dollars left? I really come to earn pocket money. Yes! Lei Tiantang said loudly with a smile.
