Chapter 389 Salvage
Even if the soldier doesn't say anything, he will drive the boat over there to make it easier for them to launch and save time.
As soon as the boat docked, he watched the other two people jump off again.
The busy fishermen around them all stretched out their necks while standing on the side of the boat. The boats were very close to each other, and they could still whisper and exchange a few words.
It's rare that those people didn't chase them away. They must have seen the excitement first. What a rare thing. There are so many big shots in the village, and they plan to fish for treasures. If it is later, they may not be allowed to see.
A few days ago, some people in their village who thought they were good at water went into the water and tried it, but found that the pressure was so terrible that they did not dare to go too deep and came up. After that, no one dared to risk going into the water again.
Mainly because at that time, I didn’t know that officials would pay so much attention to things and that things were so valuable. Otherwise, there would be one or two brave men in their own village or surrounding villages who would try to fish it out.
Let's see if we can catch something valuable.
After more than two minutes, there was a splash on the water, and the two people floated up again. The people on the shore stretched their heads even longer, as if they wanted to attach the giraffe's neck to their bodies.
"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work..."
"Comrades from the People's Liberation Army, please come up first..."
Everyone stretched out their hands to help them up, and saw that their hands were full. Someone couldn't help but said, "Is this a complete set of wine glasses?"
The two soldiers handed them the things in their hands and took a breath and said: "We saw a small pile of these scattered beside the reef, so we picked them up first, and then walked around to see if there were any
There are few fragments, some have been corroded, and some can still see their shapes.”
"We also saw several small boxes scattered among the seaweed. They were completely covered by the seaweed, and the boxes were also entangled with aquatic plants. If you didn't fiddle with the seaweed when passing by, they would have been easily ignored."
"What about the box?" Everyone said in unison excitedly.
"It's a bit heavy. I already have a wine glass in my hand, so it's hard to hold it, so I plan to go up to find a rope and pull it up when I go back down later."
"Okay, okay...good work, hard work, hard work..."
Apart from anything else, these officials are really polite when they talk to people. They always say "hard work, you have to work hard", which makes people feel comfortable listening to them.
Ye Yaodong was leaning on the side of the ship, drinking tea from a ceramic cup, watching the four soldiers taking turns going up and down, with only occasional breaks in between. Not to mention, the physical strength of soldiers is very good.
, made him want to exercise.
The whole morning passed, and he kept leaning there, watching a group of people chattering and busy. Because of the rocking of the boat, some people would lie down on the side of the boat and vomit from time to time. He himself was fine and light. Of course, the enamel cup in his hand
Never left my hand.
It was obviously just coarse tea, but it gave him the feeling of red wine while drinking it leisurely. Father Ye couldn't stand the lazy look anymore, so he went over and grabbed the cup from his hand.
"You have been occupying the latrine and not shitting. You have been holding a cup all morning and no one else wants to drink tea. You drank it alone. You drank a sip of tea all morning. Seeing that you are so idle, you can only get in and out, and you don't see anyone.
Go pee twice..."
Ye Yaodong looked at his empty hands and rested his elbows on the side of the boat indifferently. He also leaned his back on it, put one foot on the inside of the boat, and continued his leisurely activities.
"It's quite leisurely! Aren't you watching them working in the water? Since I don't have anything to do, aren't you also quite leisurely? I've been watching the excitement all morning, so you have the nerve to talk to me, and so are you.
It’s getting more and more powerful, and it’s been influenced by my mother.”
Father Ye said angrily: "If I had known earlier, I would have helped with the work at home. I would have saved myself the trouble of standing here. I don't know how long they are going to work."
"It's okay. Let's just treat him as a salary and a subsidy. Didn't I say that if we cooperate with him in his work, in addition to the commendation and rewards we should have, we will also be given a little subsidy as work loss."
"That's right, I don't know what the subsidy law is..."
At this moment, they pulled up another black box, which looked exactly like the one Ye Yaodong brought home. There were already two on the ship, and this one was the third one, which was of the same standard.
The old man at the cultural center took the black box handed over by the soldier and neatly stacked the three boxes there, with a smile on his face.
"Is there any small box at the bottom, comrade PLA?"
"We haven't found it yet. Our time in the water is limited and the range of activities is too small. It's a pity."
"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work. It's already noon. Let's take a break and eat something to regain our strength. You must be quite tired underwater, right?"
"fine."
"Yes, yes, yes, let's take a break and drink some water. Fortunately, we have you today, otherwise a group of us would have been blinded."
"You're welcome, let's all rest for a while."
The village chief actively carried the bucket of tea and mung bean soup to them, "Everyone, drink some soup. It's such a hot day. Eat some mung bean soup to relieve the heat and cushion your stomach on the boat."
It’s convenient to have something to eat and drink…”
Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched, as if he had prepared it.
He turned and walked towards the corner. They had just borrowed a basket from him, specifically to put the salvaged things. There were wine glasses, wine bottles, palm-sized, strange utensils, and some broken porcelain.
piece.
They also asked the soldiers to fish out the broken pieces of porcelain. They said that although they were worthless, they could be used to study the historical background and understand the culture at that time.
Ye Yaodong had never asked aloud, but now he was a little curious. He looked at the old man at the cultural center and said, "Old man, are you taking it back to put it on display in your cultural center?"
The old man took a sip of the mung bean soup and said with a smile: "We are a small county, but we are not qualified to keep this bronze. It has to be sent to the museum. Yesterday we went back and called our superiors to report it. It is estimated that it will be released in a few days.
The museum will send someone over."
"Oh~ This bronze is so awesome, even the museum has to come to collect it."
"This is a cultural relic. The origin of bronze ware is very ancient. It began in the Yellow River Basin..."
"Ah, I know... the old man is really erudite and cultured, and he knows so much... The sounds in front of the three boxes should be gold, silver, jewelry, or coins and copper coins, right?"
Ye Yaodong quickly interrupted his tirade and changed the subject. He was a newly illiterate person and was not interested in such history and culture. He did not want his ears to suffer. If I told him something about the Anti-Japanese War, he would still be interested in listening.
He was not interested in these bronzes, but he was very curious about the three boxes. When they took them up to study and shook them, the sounds were different. They must contain different things.
There was a box that made a clanging sound before. Listening to their discussion, it should be gold and silver. He was really curious. Would it be the same as the gold cakes in his box? What about the other two?
What?
The old man was interrupted just as he was interested in saying something. He really didn't know what he wanted to say. Hearing his question, he was happy to say a few words to him.
"It should be, the sound is almost the same, but you have to open it to be sure. The box outside is also very valuable and worth studying. In order not to damage the box, you have to take it back and ask someone to unlock it."
Ye Yaodong said with a little regret: "Then we won't be able to see it. It's a pity."
"Haha, such a rare thing should be published in the newspapers by then. If you are interested, you can pay attention to it."
"Of course I'm interested. After all, I was the first to salvage and discover it, and I also followed and cooperated with your work. I have witnessed the whole process."
"Well, when the time comes the county will provide you with subsidies, so you can't work in vain."
Haha~
Ye Yaodong smiled and said nothing more. He was sure that whatever he could get would be more than the county's subsidy.
The whole morning has passed, these people have become accustomed to vomiting, and they can still eat.
After resting for a while, they drained a bucket of mung bean soup, and then watched the four soldiers take turns entering the water.
Ye Yaodong was bored and started swatting mosquitoes again. He saw a man who was probably too full and started to vomit after being shaken by the boat a few times. Several small fishes surfaced again to grab food. He immediately thought of the small cabin.
There is also the fishhook and line he rolled up some time ago.
After watching them all morning, he was not interested in watching them go up and down anymore, so he simply went to the cabin to take out his hook and line and play with them.
There is no bamboo pole to use as a fishing rod, so we can only use the most primitive fishing method of hand line.
But when he took out the stick tied with the hand thread, he remembered that due to an impromptu decision, there was no bait on the boat.
"trouble!"
All we can do is cast a fishing net and see if we can catch some.
Father Ye saw him walking in and out of the cabin, taking out a fishing net and playing with it. He couldn't help but wonder, "What are you doing with the fishing net?"
"What else can we do? Net fish, or net people?"
"Suddenly you are so diligent? You have to use this little time, so what did you do in the morning? You spent a lot of time in the morning and didn't know how to be diligent. Most of the day has passed, and now you think of getting the fishing net? You are pretending to be diligent."
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "Didn't you just watch the excitement this morning? Where can I think of getting up to work? Isn't it boring now?"
"I'm telling you, don't always find it unpleasant to see me doing this or that. In fact, you are the same. Didn't you watch the excitement there for a long time this morning?"
"At least I can still think of getting a fishing net now to see if I can catch something? And you are still there watching the fun, you see... you are not as good as me? You still have the nerve to talk to me, let's
This is called half a catty... yes... I am eight liang, you are half a catty... I have three ounces more than you, and I am still a little stronger than you..."
Father Ye stared at him in annoyance as he told him, but he was not as sharp-tongued as him and could not refute, so he had no choice but to take action.
"Hey, hey, you are rain boots, not liberation shoes. There are so many people, and your habits are too bad. You are not afraid of annoying everyone in public?"
When Ye Yaodong saw that his father was so angry that he would habitually take off his shoes and hit others, he quickly took a few steps back to stop him from paying attention to his image.
Ye's father had just half taken off his rain boots. When he reminded him, seeing that there were so many people on the boat, some of them noticed the movements of the father and son, and Secretary Chen turned around and winked at him, he had no choice but to put them on again.
"You bastard, you just know how to talk back. If you don't make me angry, I won't feel comfortable."
"You're confusing right and wrong! You were obviously the one who picked on me first."
There is a monthly voting activity in the book club. A monthly ticket costs 100 points. Everyone can participate enthusiastically.
