Shen Ziqing saw the shark getting closer and closer to him, his heart beat wildly, and he unconsciously used the superpower in his body to the extreme. What reassured him was that the shark did not make any attack movements, but instead shook its head toward Shen Qing. This made Shen Ziqing completely relieved.
Shen Ziqing controlled the shark to approach him, but as soon as the shark approached Shen Ziqing, it was stopped by two dolphins. Shen Ziqing hurriedly ordered the two dolphins to stop attacking, and the shark swam up to Shen Ziqing.
Shen Ziqing had never thought that a shark could be so docile. With a thought in his mind, he gave the shark the order he had just given to the dolphin. It was also the order to search for the sunken ship. After Shen Ziqing issued the order in his mind, he saw the water shark. Swimming around Shen Ziqing, Shen Ziqing was confused when the shark plunged into the sea sand beneath Shen Ziqing. The sea sand was arched up by the shark's head, digging a hole. Seeing the shark's behavior, the two dolphins also kept pushing their heads toward the sea sand beneath Shen Ziqing.
Is there a sunken ship buried in the sand beneath me?
Shen Ziqing reached out and dug down along the sharks and dolphins. After a layer of sea sand was lifted up, Shen Ziqing felt a hard iron-like ground in his hands, and he could no longer dig down.
Shen Ziqing felt ecstatic and continued to activate the energy in his body, attracting more fish from the ocean to help him clean up the floating sand. All of a sudden, swimming fish came in droves, including squid, dolphins, sharks, octopuses all kinds of fish that Shen Ziqing could not name were countless. The floating sand rolled under Shen Ziqing. After about half an hour, clues about the sunken ship were revealed. , Shen Ziqing dismissed the swimming fish and finally saw the sunken ship clearly. However, Shen Ziqing was greatly disappointed by the size of the ship. The ship was very small, with a hull of only about two meters. It was not an ocean-going ship at all. Such a ship was more like a fishing boat. Thinking that this place was not too far from the coast, Shen Ziqing also felt that it was unlikely that he would discover a large ancient shipwreck here.
With a tentative mentality, Shen Ziqing searched around the small boat. During the search, Shen Ziqing found a skeleton. Among the bones, Shen Ziqing found a box the size of a laptop. Shen Ziqing pulled the box out of the sand. When the box was pulled out of the sand, an object hung on the box. Shen Ziqing took a closer look and found that it was something like a necklace hanging on the skeleton.
Shen Ziqing carefully removed the necklace from the skeleton and picked it up together with the box.
Shen Ziqing looked around carefully and found nothing. Out of respect for the deceased, Shen Ziqing buried the skeleton and the sunken ship, and then surfaced.
Seeing the sun again, Shen Ziqing felt relieved. Also emerging from the water with him were several sharks, dolphins, octopuses and cuttlefish he had just recruited, as well as those swimming fish. Shen Ziqing turned over and rode on a shark and headed straight to the small fishing ground. And go.
Shen Ziqing was extremely comfortable sitting on the back of the shark. At this time, he finally had the opportunity to look at the box and necklace he had just grabbed.
Looking closely, the box was extremely simple, but it was locked and could not be opened. It was not clear what was inside, so Shen Ziqing had to wait until he returned to the shore. Shen Ziqing looked at the necklace again. He didn't know what material the necklace was made of. It didn't look like any of the gold, silver, copper, or iron metals that Shen Ziqing was familiar with. It was dark and without a trace of rust, and the pendant under the chain was an ancient ship that had traveled on a long voyage. The boat pattern seemed familiar to Shen Ziqing, but he couldn't remember where he had seen such a boat style.
Although there was nothing gained this time, Shen Ziqing was still in a good mood. He just recruited two dolphins and sharks and found a sunken ship offshore. If he spent more time, he could recruit more fish of various kinds to form an ocean. Wouldn't it be possible for the expedition army to discover more ancient sunken ships? Then I'm afraid I would just sit and count the money. Thinking of this, Shen Ziqing's mood became better and better, and he even regretted that he had not thought of this way of making money earlier. , if he was born by the sea, he might have thought of this method.
When Shen Ziqing landed, it was already afternoon. The army of swimming fish following Shen Ziqing was immediately tamed by Shen Ziqing and dispersed to look for the sunken ship. Shen Ziqing began to concentrate on studying the box he fished out. Shen Ziqing took the box back to his residence in the small fishery, found a tool, sawed open the lock, and then opened the box with hope. The inside of the box had long been soaked by sea water. Shen Ziqing removed the rotten substances, and the inside immediately shone brightly. A layer of thumb-sized diamonds of various colors were neatly arranged in front of his eyes.
Shen Ziqing rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Today, Shen Ziqing no longer cares about the amount of money, but these gems still make him happy. He couldn't help but count the number of these gems. The gems were square in the box. Arrange, 10 pieces in each row, 100 pieces in total. Shen Ziqing picked up thoseShen Ziqing looked at the diamonds carefully and saw that the red, blue, green and black diamonds were round and transparent, like glass. Shen Ziqing liked these diamonds for a while, but he was a little unsure about how much these things were worth. After all, he knew nothing about these.
Looking carefully at the box, Shen Ziqing found that there were two small protrusions on the left and right sides of the tray holding the diamonds, similar to handles. Shen Ziqing lifted up the two protrusions. It was probably due to the long soaking time in sea water that the tray holding the diamonds was grainy. Without moving, Shen Ziqing found a knife, pried open the tray, and then carefully removed the tray, only to find that there was another layer of diamonds underneath.
There are not many diamonds in this layer, only five, but these diamonds are much larger than the hundreds of diamonds above. There is a green diamond the size of a pigeon egg in each corner of the box, but in the middle of the box is a diamond the size of an egg, as dark as ink.
Shen Ziqing was slightly excited, and his eyes suddenly shone like a miser's. Looking at these shining things, he was inexplicably happy and laughed. After the joy, Shen Ziqing took out all the gems and polished them one by one. He kept playing with them until the excitement was over, and then he remembered that there was still a box that had not been polished. So he took the box into his hands. Now that he had the box in hand, he noticed a problem that he had previously ignored because of the excitement brought by the gems - the box was heavy.
Shen Ziqing took the box and looked left and right. He didn't know what the bottom layer of the box containing gems was. It was hard. Shen Ziqing took a tool and fiddled with it for a long time. Finally, he pried off a square piece at the bottom of the box that was the same size as the entire box. When the iron came, Shen Ziqing took the piece of iron and looked through it carefully. He didn't see anything strange. After looking at it for a long time, he felt that this piece of iron was not iron. He suddenly thought of the necklace and took the necklace and the unknown piece. When Fang Tie compared it, he found that the two were made of the same material. What the specific material was could only be known if it was tested. Shen Ziqing felt that it was too heavy to put in the box, so he casually placed the square iron in an inconspicuous corner.
Looking at these diamonds, Shen Ziqing didn't know what to do with them. It was quite troublesome to get these things in and out of the country. The best way was to digest them locally. The only people he knew in this city now were Qin Zhi and Jim Zell. After much deliberation, Shen Ziqing still decided to test Qin Zhi's tone first.
Just when Shen Ziqing wanted to find Qin Zhi, Qin Zhi took the initiative to call. In the phone call to Shen Ziqing, Qin Zhi sounded extremely relaxed: "Dr. Shen, I'm really sorry for leaving you aside for so many days."
"As soon as I heard Sister Qin speak, I knew that things must be done."
"Yes, thanks to your help in this matter, Mr. Jimzel not only gave me the right to salvage the sunken ship, but also the right to dispose of the property on the sunken ship after salvage. I only need to pay a part of the tax. This is better than I imagined." It¡¯s so much better, Mr. Jimzel asked me to thank you very much, but he put all the favors on you.¡±
After listening to Qin Zhi¡¯s words, Shen Ziqing thought to himself, who said Germans are old-fashioned, but this Gimzel is quite good at life. Shen Ziqing said a few more polite words to Qin Zhi, and then heard Qin Zhi say: "Mr. Jim is having a cocktail party tonight and has invited many of his clients. Mr. Jim invited me, and I think he will also invite you. When the time comes, you will How about being my dance partner?"
"If Sister Qin is not afraid that I will crush her feet, I will be happy to accompany you."
"I will put a few nails on the shoes." Qin Zhi joked and ended the call with Shen Ziqing. Sure enough, not long after hanging up Qin Zhi's phone, Jim Zell called to invite him, and Shen Ziqing happily went to the appointment. He wanted to find an opportunity to test Qin Zhi and Jim Zell's opinions and get rid of these diamonds.
¡¡
The dance was held at Jim Zell Company. When Shen Ziqing was picked up at the door of Jim Zell Company, Jim Zell was already waiting at the door, which made Shen Ziqing feel a little embarrassed: "Jim, your courtesy makes me very uncomfortable. Can we Get along more naturally like friends."
Jim Zell said to Shen Ziqing with a wry smile: "I really don't know what it means to get along like friends. I have no friends." As the son of a shipping king, Jim was born with a golden key in his mouth, but he also had a lot of helplessness. Shen Ziqing patted Jim on the shoulder and expressed his understanding, without using too many words to comfort him. Some things need to be understood slowly.
Shen Ziqing and Jim Zell walked side by side. As they walked, they talked about some interesting things about animal taming. They both had a common language on this topic, and they had a good conversation. While marching, he kept passing by various people in formal attire. Those people were very respectful to Gimzel and kept greeting Gimzel. However, Gimzel could no longer concentrate on talking to Shen Ziqing and kept nodding to those who greeted him. Salute. Jim'er shrugged helplessly at Shen Ziqing and said, "In your words, this means that people can't help themselves in the world."
"We have one more thing to sayAs the saying goes, doing a job and loving a job, since you can become an excellent animal trainer, you can also become an excellent ship king. Like me, there are many times when I have to do things I don¡¯t like. "Shen Ziqing saw that Gimzel didn't like the role of the son of the shipping king very much, but after all, people live with responsibilities, and Gimzel must be reminded.
Jim Zell smiled and said to Shen Ziqing: "Mr. Shen, I don't think you have any inability to help yourself. I don't dare not do anything to the president's son."
Shen Ziqing didn't expect Jimzel to be well-informed, so he just smiled at Jimzel: "I didn't do anything to him, I just kicked him a few times, oh, and slapped him a few times. I felt dirty. hand." When Shen Ziqing spoke, he observed Jimzel carefully. He wanted to know whether Jimzel was treating him so politely out of a desire to repay a favor, or because he felt that he had beaten the leader's son and was safe and powerful. Jimzel smiled and said: "Well done, if I can run my company like you run the Demon Pet Academy, I think it will be a happy thing."
Shen Ziqing was relieved and understood why Jimzel mentioned this matter in front of him. Jimzel may have hoped to run an ideal company like himself, but unfortunately Jimzel did not have any superpowers.
The two were walking and chatting. Shen Ziqing pretended to be casual and took out the necklace fished out of the sea and handed it to Jim Zell: "I accidentally picked up this thing in a small fishing ground by the sea, Jim." You should know something about European culture, help me take a look at what this thing is." Jimzel took the thing in his hand, not paying attention at first, but when he saw the style of the pendant clearly, Jimzel looked like a monkey He jumped up as well: "Oh my God." Jimzel kept turning the pendant over and over in his hands, looking extremely focused, completely forgetting that Shen Ziqing was beside him.
Shen Ziqing knew just from Jim Zell's expression that the origin of this thing was not simple, and he couldn't help but regret that he had taken out this thing rashly.
Jim Zell looked at Shen Ziqing's pendant and said solemnly to Shen Ziqing: "Mr. Shen, I want to know where you found this thing. I am willing to buy it at the highest price. Mr. Shen just raises the price."
"I bought a small fishery on the beach, and I found this thing when I was cleaning the small fishery. Jim, I don't know what this thing is."
"To be honest, Mr. Shen, this thing has special meaning to my family. My great-grandfather died at sea because of this thing and a batch of goods. My family also went bankrupt because of this thing."
"Could this thing still bring bad luck to people?" Shen Ziqing was a little confused.
"Of course not. Back then, my great-grandfather went to Africa to do business with the ancestors of the Rhodes family. They mined together and made a fortune. The ancestors of the Rhodes family died in Africa because they were not accustomed to the climate. My ancestors took the two of them together. His property returned to Europe. My great-grandfather wanted to go ashore in Spain to buy some goods before returning to Germany. His destination was what is now Tarifa, but unfortunately, his ship encountered a storm as soon as it sailed into the Mediterranean. My grandfather fell short of his achievements and died at the doorstep of his house." When Gimzel talked about this past event, he couldn't hide the regret in his words. After traveling a hundred miles and a half, Gimzel's grandfather was also unlucky enough. There were strong winds and waves. , and finally we were almost home, but the boat was destroyed and everyone died.
"After my great-grandfather's accident, our family sent people to salvage his boat, but only a few boxes of gold coins were salvaged, and my great-grandfather's body was not found. Some important things were not found, including this necklace, this necklace It is the symbol of the head of the Rhodes family, which is equivalent to the seal of the emperor of your country. Since those properties were not found, the Rhodes family suspected that we had embezzled those properties, and the two families have been at odds since then. Over the years, people from the Rhodes family have been looking for us. I asked our family for this necklace, but this necklace is not in our family at all. Our family has been ridiculed and suffered unjust injustice for more than a century. Now this necklace has finally been found. I believe that my grandfather¡¯s body is It must be nearby, even if the sea is turned upside down, I will still find my grandfather's relics."
Shen Ziqing did not expect that a necklace would have such a twists and turns. It seems that Jim Zell's ancestor put his important belongings on the boat to escape after encountering a storm, but this unlucky Zell family ancestor's boat sank when he was about to dock. He died and was finally buried in the sea sand. This ancestor of the Zell family must be plagued by bad luck. Now the Zell family is eager to find the relics of this ancestor. The box of diamonds is the property earned by the ancestor and the Rhodes family at that time.
After all the joints were clear, Shen Ziqing had a headache. He didn't know whether he should tell Jim Zell that he had discovered something about the ancestors of the Zell family. Now Shen ZiqingIt is easy to find out even if you want to destroy all traces. As long as you find more fish and drag the boat into the deep sea, no one will find it. While Shen Ziqing was hesitating, he heard Gimzel say: "Mr. Shen, I implore you to sell me that small fishery and this thing. Don't worry, Mr. Shen just tells you the price."
Shen Ziqing thought for a long time: "Jim, it has been at least a hundred years since this incident. Why is your family still so worried about this matter? If the Zell family finds the relics of your ancestors, what do you think? deal with."
Jim Zell said sternly: "Mr. Shen, this is the reputation of a family. The Zell family's development and growth over the past hundred years is all supported by this reputation. My family has to go all out to find the relics of our ancestors. We want to retrieve the property and hand it over to the Rhodes family. The reputation of our ancestors is worthy of the Zell family at all costs."
Shen Ziqing sighed: "A century-old family is indeed extraordinary." A family that can continue to grow and develop for a hundred years naturally has a foundation for its existence. Shen Ziqing suddenly thought, what is the foundation for the existence of the Demon Pet Academy? It is gone. I am afraid that my Demon Pet Academy will not be able to survive for a day. If the Demon Pet Academy exists only because of my existence, it will be destined to be short-lived. Thinking of this, Shen Ziqing was touched by something that he had never thought of before. Questions all come to mind.
Seeing Shen Ziqing thinking, Jimzel thought Shen Ziqing was hesitating, and hurriedly said to Shen Ziqing: "Mr. Shen, I can provide Mr. Shen with a large and well-equipped fishing ground. As for this necklace, I want to use the best diamond in the world." Is it okay for Mr. Shen to accept him at a reasonable price?"
Shen Ziqing was interrupted by Jimzel's words and realized that he had just been distracted. He hurriedly said to Jimzel: "Jim, I'm not hesitating because the price you gave is not high. I want to tell you that I might The location where your grandfather was killed has been found, not far from the small fishing ground.¡±
After hearing this, Jimzel took Shen Ziqing and walked out: "Mr. Shen, let's go to the fishing ground now."
"Jim, it's already night when we arrive at the small fishing ground by the sea. Even if you are impatient, you have to wait until dawn tomorrow. Moreover, there is a cocktail party waiting for you inside." Jimzel suddenly realized, but took out his own A number was dialed. During the video call, Jimzel flipped Shen Ziqing's pendant repeatedly in front of the camera for the person on the other end of the phone to watch. Gimzel spoke in German during the call. Shen Ziqing didn't know exactly what the two said, but judging from Gimzel's demeanor, it was his father who should have passed.
Sure enough, Jimzel hung up the phone: "Mr. Shen, my father will be coming from Germany soon. I think he will be here tomorrow."
