Chapter 607: Chapter 370 Ancient Coins_2

Of course, that was just wishful thinking. For now, he still had to work like an ox, transporting the treasure on this ship.

Fortunately, there was no need to dig inside the ship, so the process of transferring the treasure was much faster.

Three days had passed, and the Sea God had sunk significantly lower in the water compared to when they had arrived.

The cold storage was already crammed full, and although he considered using the live fish well, he decided against it for safety reasons and chose to hassle himself by moving everything to the empty dance room.

Without enough boxes, there was no helping it; they just spread out spare blankets and sheets and poured the items directly onto them.

A room full of gold and silver ancient coins and gemstones, along with what was in the cold storage, was estimated to sell for several hundred million, or even over a billion Green Coins.

No wonder the pirate had betrayed his group for the treasure map; he obviously knew about the sunken ship’s rough origins and value.

Having been out for quite some time, Chu Mingcheng didn’t hesitate. That very night, he sailed back, even using life conversion to maintain his energy.

As a result, he made it back to domestic waters in just a day and a half, and that was when he truly breathed a sigh of relief – after all, you’re safe at home!

What Chu Mingcheng didn’t realize was that, at this moment, several fast boats were speeding over the Palau Sea Area and soon arrived at the area where the sunken ship was located.

Like him, they first stopped at that very deep section of the sea.

All of them were armed with submachine guns, and one of the boats even had a rocket launcher attached to the back.

Above them on the sea and land, a much larger ship was slowly making its way...

Already on the East Sea, Chu Mingcheng had no idea just how lucky he was, having narrowly escaped a catastrophe.

Given those people’s equipment, even with the Sea God mode, an accident might have occurred.

Another day passed, and Chu Mingcheng finally made it back to Xia City, both hastening and impeding his journey.

However, he didn’t return to the city docks but headed straight to the dock near his villa instead.

As a resident here, he had purchased several berths.

At that moment, Chu Mingcheng felt extremely grateful for having bought a sea-view villa with a private dock; otherwise, the transfer of goods from the ship would have been quite inconvenient.

Compared to his old home, the villa area was indeed a bit safer.

In his old fishing village, his boat could be discovered no matter where it was moored on the island, and even sneaking things around at night could result in encounters with other people.

But the villa district was different. The residents here were either rich or noble, and no one would come to the dock late at night for no reason.

Moreover, his villa was the closest to the dock, and the surrounding residents lived farther away, which made it very convenient for him to move things around at night.

Once back home, Chu Mingcheng didn’t start transferring the goods on the same night.

He locked the door of the ship, went home to take a shower, eat dinner, and then returned to his bedroom to sleep soundly.

He had been awake the whole return trip; even with life conversion, he was exhausted, particularly mentally.

He was still human, after all, and not sleeping made his biological instincts uncomfortable.

When he woke again, it was already the next day’s noon.

After waking up leisurely, taking a shower, and eating, Chu Mingcheng made a phone call to Chen Yang and Zhang Wei.

"You two hurry and finish up whatever you’re doing and come to my place. I’ve got some great treasures to show you!"

Chen Yang, "You’re back? What good stuff have you got this time?"

Zhang Wei, "What makes you think you have great treasures? I’ve got a big one too!"

Chu Mingcheng, "Cut the crap, tonight you guys will be hugging my leg and calling me grandpa."

Zhang Wei, "Kidding right, I will call you..."

"Grandpa!"

As night fell and Zhang Wei saw the ancient coins filling the ship, he indeed did as Chu Mingcheng said, his legs weakened, and he sat down on the ground before hugging his leg.

"Just give me a share, and I won’t just call you grandpa; I’ll call you ancestor!"

"You want a share just because you’ve got a big face?" Chen Yang kicked Zhang Wei disdainfully, "You’re not short of money with an annual income of tens of millions. How come you still act like you’ve never seen the world?"

"I was just playing along with Ah Cheng’s joke," Zhang Wei laughed, getting up to straighten himself out, "So, Ah Cheng, did you go out to sea specifically to find a sunken ship this time?"

Chu Mingcheng nodded, "Yes, I scammed a map from a pirate before, and since Luoluo went back to her mother’s house and I had nothing to do, I went to check it, and who knew I’d find an ancient sunken ship from the Bull Fighting Country."

"Sss~ Pirates are quite the schemers, but you’re amazing!" Zhang Wei took a sharp breath before looking at the ship’s treasure and said, "Speaking of which, how much is all this treasure worth?"

Chen Yang stroked his chin and said, "Hard to tell, it really depends on the buyer. But I estimate that all this treasure is worth at least several billion."

"Several billion? That little?"

"In Green Coin!"

"..."

"Alright, let’s rest up for now. We still have to move all this treasure tonight!" Chu Mingcheng took the two to sleep, preparing to wake up in the night to move all the ancient coins and gems together.

Actually, he could have moved them alone, and it wouldn’t have been much slower.

It was easy enough to move the old coins, but cleaning them was another matter entirely.

Aside from his parents and wife, the people he trusted most were Chen Yang and Zhang Wei.

Good brothers are the best laborers, right?

Anyone else might covet the wealth if they saw it, but not these two.

So, in the following week, Jiang Luoluo received countless complaints from Bai Jing and Zhang Youning that their husbands had been led astray and didn’t return home at night.

Out of curiosity, she made a call back home and through a video call saw three grown men carefully cleaning piles of gold and silver coins and gemstones agate with a solution.

Jiang Luoluo blinked her eyes, having gone back to her parents’ home, and somehow she had become the wife of a billionaire?

Cleaning ancient coins was a bit tricky as these things had long been soaking in seawater, and a layer of material had formed on them.

There was coral and seaweed, as well as some oxidized substances.

Forcefully scrubbing them would only damage the historical value of the pieces, so they had to be cleaned gradually with the solution.

After a week of coin cleaning, Chen Yang and Zhang Wei couldn’t take it anymore and ran back home—it was too much work for just three people.

But when Chu Mingcheng showed up with two boxes of cleaned ancient coins, Bai Jing and Zhang Youning very tacitly kicked them out of the house with a single push.

Chen Yang Zhang Wei: Sobbing!

...

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was Jiang Luoluo’s due date.

Watching her being pushed into the labor room, Chu Mingcheng paced anxiously outside the door—it was probably the norm for most expectant fathers.

Chu Yongxin and the others were also on pins and needles; after all, one was about to become a grandfather, and the other a father-in-law.

"Waaah~"

A loud cry of a baby echoed from the delivery room, the sound piercing through and reaching outside.

Chu Mingcheng’s face immediately showed surprise—he was going to be a father!

After a short while, the nurse came out carrying the baby who had been briefly cleaned, uncovering the blanket to let them have a look: "Seven pounds and six ounces, a boy."

To be honest, when he saw Little Boy for the first time, Chu Mingcheng did feel a twinge of disappointment.

Who wouldn’t want a little cutie pie clinging to them and calling them daddy with a milky voice?

Too bad it was a boy, but they’d make do!

On the other hand, the grandparents from both sides were overjoyed. These days nobody had a particular preference for grandsons or granddaughters; as long as the child was theirs, that was all that mattered.

The next moment, Chu Mingcheng moved to the side of Jiang Luoluo, who was being wheeled out, and said softly, "You did well!"

"I’m fine!" Jiang Luoluo replied, looking exhausted yet feeling warm inside—at least her husband wasn’t ignoring her just because of the child and was as attentive as ever.

"Luoluo, when you’re ready let me know what you’d like to eat, I’ll prepare it for you," An Xiuwen was very considerate. After all, another family’s girl had given birth to a child for her son, and as the mother, she naturally couldn’t just focus on her grandson.

"I’m not hungry yet, maybe later," Jiang Luoluo said softly. How could she possibly have an appetite at that moment?

Once she was pushed into the room, the elders began taking turns amusing the baby.

"Aiyah, his eyebrows look like Ah Cheng’s, so handsome!"

"His face looks like Luoluo’s. When he grows up, he’s definitely going to be a big heartthrob. Who knows how many young girls he’ll charm then."
