Rebirth 1981 starts with saving the sisters from the neighboring village.
Chapter 498 [Taixing Shipwreck Treasure]
Taixing shipwreck treasure, invaded and deleted
This freighter has been specially modified.
Previously used by Mike Hatcher's submarine wreck salvage fleet.
Later, Mike Hatcher's team faced a larger amount of sunken treasures and a more complex environment. They needed a salvage ship that could accommodate more equipment and storage space to facilitate salvage at sea, so they modified a cargo ship with more than 30,000 tons.
This 10,000-ton cargo ship is used as a transport supply ship.
Two giant ships happened to be salvaging the Taixing in the South China Sea.
After receiving the order, Chen Xinyi quickly dispatched the 10,000-ton giant ship from the South China Sea to India.
At this moment, the freighter left the dock and sailed into the sea in the dark night.
A few days later, the cargo ship arrived in a certain area of the South China Sea.
This is the location of the Taixing shipwreck.
According to historical records, the Taixing was more than 50 meters long, about 15 meters wide, and weighed more than 1000 tons. It was a rare giant sailing ship in the Qing Dynasty.
In 1822, the Taixing departed from Xiamen Port and headed for Indonesia, which was known as Java in ancient times. In order to avoid the plunder of pirates, it took a detour to Xisha, but unfortunately it ran aground and sank.
At that time, the ship also carried 2000 passengers and crew, as well as priceless fine porcelain from Dehua.
Peng Wanhua remembered that in his previous life, the ship was not salvaged until 1999.
In this life, he relied on his foresight to salvage it ten years in advance.
In his previous life, he didn't even have a chance to see the sunken treasure. In this life, the sunken ship already belongs to him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
He wanted to see what treasures were in these sunken treasures.
"Oh! BOSS! Welcome to the tall and handsome man!"
Mike Hatcher was shirtless, holding a can of Jianlibao in his hand, and was leaning on the recliner with his whole body wet. When he saw Peng Wanhua coming off the jumping bridge, he immediately stood up to greet him, and started to flatter him.
Don't think that foreigners can't flatter you, Mike Hatcher is very smooth now.
Peng Wanhua smiled and patted his shoulder.
Perhaps it was the long-term sun exposure that made his skin red and purple.
"Thank you for your hard work. What's the result?" Peng Wanhua glanced at the deck.
Behind Hatcher are baskets of packed porcelain.
"Look!" Mike Hatcher said with a smile on his face, pointing to the neatly arranged baskets of porcelain on the deck.
Among the baskets of porcelain, most of them were exquisite blue and white porcelain, and some had noble white glaze.
There are only a small part of multicolored porcelain, green-brown glazed porcelain and purple sand porcelain.
Among them, blue and white porcelain, because most of these porcelain are blue and white porcelain produced in Dehua in the early 19th century for export, mainly all kinds of blue and white porcelain for daily use.
Peng Wanhua stepped forward and took out a blue and white porcelain plate from the basket. This was a blue and white porcelain plate with a pattern of broken branches.
Blue and white porcelain plate with broken branches and clusters, invaded and deleted
Magnificent branches cover the entire bottom of the porcelain plate, and the pattern around the edge of the plate makes it even more majestic and beautiful!
He carefully put the plate back and glanced at it. There were probably more than five hundred items in the entire basket!
Just like this, there are more than a dozen frames containing blue and white porcelain twig-shaped disks in my home class!
After walking a few steps, I came to another frame of porcelain.
This frame is filled with blue and white peony plates with broken branches.
The elegant peonies bloom at the bottom of the plate. Even after nearly two hundred years, they are still clear and bright under the protection of the silt on the seabed.
It is a rare fine product among blue and white porcelain.
Blue and white plate with broken branches and peony pattern, invaded and deleted
And there are more than thirty frames of blue and white porcelain plates like this on the deck!
There are also a large number of extremely beautiful blue and white porcelain bowls.
Various blue and white porcelain dishes about twenty centimeters in diameter.
Various blue and white porcelain jars with big belly and high price.
Blue and white porcelain bowls with various exquisite patterns perfectly preserved.
As well as elegant, small and exquisite blue and white porcelain cups.
Etc., etc!
There are many kinds of exquisite blue and white porcelain!
Blue and white porcelain, invaded and deleted
White glazed powder box, invaded and deleted
If these porcelains were placed in front of archaeologists, they would definitely make those archaeologists forget about food and sleep!
If these blue and white porcelains are put at auction, collectors will definitely spend their money to buy one!
Peng Wanhua remembered that in his previous life, Mike Hatcher salvaged blue and white porcelain and sent it to the auction house for auction.
Only part of it was sold, and more than 3000 million US dollars were obtained!
Some people said that these porcelains were not valuable. As a result, someone brought a huge amount of cash to the auction site but only bought 72 pieces and brought them back.
Moreover, the 72 items brought back were all ordinary goods, and none of them were high-quality goods.
Mike Hatcher reported the progress to him on the side, "BOSS, after more than five months of meticulous salvage, we have salvaged 118 million pieces of porcelain and more than a thousand other sunken items.
Among them, there are about 10,000 pieces of the most exquisite parts, ordinary porcelain items, and 10,000 pieces with varying degrees of damage.
According to my estimation, ordinary porcelain and damaged ones are not worth much, and they require effort and cost to maintain. You see if you need these parts, if not I will get rid of them. "
Mike Hatcher said that the disposal was nothing more than smashing them into pieces and throwing them into the sea. He felt that the damaged ones were all turned into waste and had no value.
Might as well smash them all, so that the rest will be more valuable.
Having said this, he took a sip of Jianlibao quite proudly of his suggestion, thinking that he was very financially savvy.
Hearing his words, Peng Wanhua suddenly frowned.
He remembered that in his previous life, Mike Hatcher started salvaging the Taixing in a hurry due to irregular procedures, which resulted in a lot of porcelain being damaged during the salvage process.
Even so, it still obtained more than one million pieces of porcelain.
To save trouble and to make porcelain more rare and valuable, he even broke more than 600,000 pieces of porcelain!
What a waste of resources!
In this life, Peng Wanhua reminded Mike Hatcher that he must be careful and patient with all sunken treasures, especially those with a lot of porcelain, and try not to damage the cultural relics inside.
Therefore, it was probably his reminder, so Mike Hatcher salvaged very carefully in his life, and there was no large amount of damage.
It is estimated that most of the 130,000 pieces of damaged porcelain were damaged during the shipwreck, including damage caused by years of sinking on the seabed.
Peng Wanhua doesn't blame him for this.
But now I heard that he wanted to throw the ordinary and damaged ones back into the sea, and I suddenly became unhappy.
"Uh..." Mike Hatcher's throat suddenly got stuck when he saw Peng Wanhua frowning.
I feel like I'm a bit talkative, so I wouldn't have made this suggestion if I had known better.
Then he stood aside and listened quietly to Peng Wanhua's instructions.
Peng Wanhua thought about it and didn't blame him. After all, Mike Hatcher also had him in mind.
Then he said: "I have my own arrangements for these ordinary porcelain and damaged porcelain. You can salvage them carefully. All porcelain must be treated equally and carefully. Ordinary porcelain, including damaged ones, must be salvaged, and then all salvaged items should be preserved." "
In his arrangement, the exquisite porcelain was collected by himself in the Shek O Family Museum for future viewing.
As for the second level, he plans to set up a museum in the capital that is open to the outside world and can donate some to it.
