Chapter 535: Chapter 364: Calculation or Calculation_2

"It’s already arranged, and they can deliver it tomorrow."

"That’s good. Next, we’ll be ready for battle!" The leader was somewhat excited, "Maybe this time, we’ll earn enough for us to spend extravagantly for years!"

Charles Wright didn’t speak, his face expressionless, thinking about other things in his heart.

Perhaps, he could really make contact with Lana Brown?

"It seems that today is another day without gain." The sky darkened, and there were no clouds in the distance, so it seemed that there would be no storm at least.

On this day, apart from seafood, there was no other harvest.

"They’ve already found something on the salvage ship." Sean Knight said to Elijah Hastings, "They’ve salvaged a piece of a ship’s plank with Chinese characters on it, and they’re researching it now."

"Chinese characters on a ship’s plank?" Elijah Hastings was taken aback after hearing this, "What does that mean? Ship name or someone writing something on the boat? That doesn’t seem very likely, does it?"

"It seems that someone engraved the characters on the plank," Sean Knight said, "The results haven’t come out yet."

"Let them send over a photo," Douglas Cooper said while gnawing on a crab leg, "If there really are Chinese characters, it’s us who can translate them. What can they research!"

Sean Knight didn’t speak as he guessed that the other party might not be willing to let their side participate.

Lana Brown divulging this information might be to show off, or perhaps to clear Captain Guy’s name.

Sean Knight didn’t actually care too much about this. In the South Sea, there were countless sunken ships, including many Chinese merchant ships from the Song and Ming Dynasties. In all honesty, if one wanted to find a ship’s plank from a sunken ship, it wouldn’t be that difficult.

"Tomorrow, let’s step it up. We can’t just keep fishing for seafood. We have to search around us more thoroughly." Sean Knight wiped his mouth, picked up a glass of water from the table, and said, "We can’t just sit around waiting for business to come our way, can we?"

"No problem! We’ll step it up tomorrow!"

Actually, everyone was not too worried, so they slept soundly that night.

However, Lana Brown didn’t sleep well.

After telling Sean Knight about the salvage ship finding the ship’s plank, she didn’t mention anything more, but she indeed had the intention to show off.

You didn’t think much of this salvage ship, right? They’ve already started salvaging real stuff!

If I’m following the ship, then naturally, I also deserve credit for the success.

However, further research showed that the ship’s plank had nothing to do with the Brown family’s ship that they were looking for.

Lana Brown hoped that Sean Knight would take the initiative to ask about the ship’s plank, or perhaps request a photo of it.

Unfortunately, Sean Knight didn’t say anything and only replied with a message on his mobile phone, "Congratulations to you."

Neither salty nor bland, without a trace of sincerity!

Lana Brown felt that Sean Knight was somewhat excessive.

This matter remained at an impasse, and the two sides later acted as if nothing happened.

However, on the salvage ship’s side, both Captain Guy and Lambert Bruno were quite happy, and Lambert even came to find Lana Brown, with the underlying intention of "Look how awesome my dad is, come lick me, hurry up!"

But the reality was not as Lambert Bruno had imagined, as Lana Brown dismissed him with just one sentence?

"Mr. Bruno, your father’s salvage skills are so impressive, how many have you learned?"

Lambert had nothing to say - he couldn’t even operate the equipment properly or handle the boat, let alone having learned anything!

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Captain Guy told Lana Brown:

"We’ve already scanned this area of the sea, and there’s no trace of sunken ships. So we need to change locations."

Leave the professional matters to professionals, so although Lana Brown was somewhat unwilling, she had no choice but to follow Captain Guy’s advice.

Moreover, judging by Captain Guy’s demeanor, he had no intention of consulting her, but was just informing her.

Lana Brown had no choice but to send a message to Sean Knight, and then the salvage ship left.

At this time, Sean Knight was underwater, using the Sky Eye to scan around.

The underwater situation was rather complicated, with many reefs, hiding numerous dangerous species, such as sea snakes and poisonous sea urchins.

Sean Knight could only move selectively underwater, expanding the search area.

Soon, he discovered something.

In the midst of several reefs, there was one that was more squarely shaped, squeezed together with the other reefs.

Looking through the phenomenon, it was actually a box brought to this place by the underwater current and then stuck in the reef.

Although the box was made of wood, for some unknown reason, it might have become a home for some underwater creatures after it got stuck, with a thick layer of minerals attached to the outside, resulting in the box being perfectly preserved.

Sean Knight’s Sky Eye could see that inside the box were bars of silver ingots.

The silver had turned black, severely corroded by seawater.

However, there were words beneath the silver, indicating it should be official silver.

Could this be the item the Brown family was transporting for the Zhao and Song royal family?

Did it seem too easy to find?

Having determined that the silver was not worth much, Sean pried the box off, tied it up with a rope, and then shook the rope to signal the people above to pull it up.

At this time, the salvage ship had already set anchor, and Lana Brown had called Sean, but the call had not gone through.

Although there were people on the ship, Lincoln Harrington and the others usually wouldn’t answer Sean’s calls, and Sean hadn’t told them in advance.

"Don’t bother with them," Lambert felt that Lana treated Sean more specially than others and was somewhat annoyed, so he tried to provoke her: "Since they didn’t intend to help in the first place, why bother with them? Isn’t it better for them to stay here and enjoy the sunshine and seafood? It’s not too late to contact them when we find something."

Lana thought Lambert misunderstood Sean and spoke up for him: "Actually, Mr. Knight is a very talented treasure hunter. He has an amazing intuition for treasure. Several underwater salvaging attempts have yielded generous harvests, so I think it’s better to let him know."

"Miss Brown, I think you are exaggerating Mr. Knight’s abilities." Before Lambert could speak, Guye, who had come up on deck at some point, said while looking at the distant yacht: "I have never heard of anyone being able to locate treasure in such depth and vast sea territory through a yacht. As a professional, I only believe in science, precise instruments, and my salvage ship in my hands.

So, Miss Brown, you better see the reality, trust me, moving to a different sea territory could lead us to our discovery very soon!"

Guye’s meaning was clear; since Sean didn’t need him, why should he bring Sean along? Having Lana along would be enough. There was plenty of room for manipulation in between.

He had done something similar before. Instinctively, Guye knew Sean was tougher to deal with than Lana, who relied on him and dared not say harsh words, let alone jeopardize their relationship.

But Sean dared to have someone throw his son into the sea in front of him.

If Sean really came on board, he might be greatly controlled and have no room to maneuver at all!

So Sean could not come along!

Just then, Lana suddenly pointed at the yacht and said: "Look, did they... salvage something?"

"What could they have salvaged? It’s just seafood." Lambert didn’t even look, as he was jealous of the seafood Sean and the others had been salvaging for the past two days!

Ordinary seafood was one thing, but what Sean had caught were all top-notch, the kind you couldn’t even get in luxury hotels!

"No, it’s definitely not seafood, it’s too big..." Lana anxiously reached for Guye’s telescope and said, "Mr. Guye, please let me take a look!"

In fact, Guye had seen it by now, and it seemed to be a box!

After all, the distance between the two boats was only about 600 meters, and his eyesight was excellent!

However, he didn’t believe it!

Through the telescope, Lana saw the box being pulled up by Elijah Hastings, followed by Sean Knight surfacing from the water.

"It’s really something! I need to call him!" Lana said excitedly, "I want to hear from him personally, what’s inside... Captain Guy, can we move our ship closer?"

Guye felt like going mad; you wanted a few hundred-ton salvage ship to approach a twenty-something-ton yacht?

Were you kidding?

But it was true that Sean had found something!

All he could hope for now was that the stuff in the box was worthless!

It would be best if it were a box of sand or rotten spices!
