Chapter 537: Chapter 365: You Do Your Thing, and I’ll Do Mine!_2
"Alright, let’s open it." Seeing there’s no more show to watch, Sean Knight said to Elijah Hastings who was already prepared with a crowbar, "Let’s see what’s inside."
Elijah immediately swung the crowbar at the box.
"No, no, no!" Lana Brown hurriedly stopped him, "Can you be more gentle? If the wood of the box is valuable, it may have turned into gloomy wood. If you smash it like that..."
"Alright, alright." Elijah, feeling helpless and with his boss around, had to give his guest some face and pry it open gently.
"It’s really good wood!" After prying off the layer of minerals, Lana Brown immediately noticed the wood was extraordinary!
However, before she could get close, Elijah had already started to pry open the box lid.
With a "crack," the lid came off, revealing the black stuff inside.
In the silt, blocks of gray-black silver ingots appeared before everyone’s eyes!
"Silver ingots!" The first to speak was Elijah.
Having accompanied Sean Knight for so long on treasure hunts, Elijah had seen a lot.
Silver easily oxidizes, and after oxidizing, it turns gray-black, losing its original luster.
The silver ingots at the bottom of the sea not only oxidized but were also corroded. However, their true color and shape were still recognizable.
Lana Brown couldn’t contain her excitement:
"Wow! A whole box of silver ingots! This...!"
She couldn’t help but pick one up and carefully examine it in front of her Mobile Phone:
"It’s official silver!"
One step closer to the goal!
Lana Brown excitedly held the silver ingot and said to Sean Knight, "Mr. Knight, Mr. Knight! This is official silver! Seventy percent, no, eighty percent! At least an eighty percent chance that this is the shipment... the treasure we’re after!"
At this moment, she sincerely felt grateful for partnering with Sean Knight!
Who would have thought they would find the treasure before the salvage ship on the second day!
Knowing this, who needs a salvage ship after all!
For a moment, Lana Brown really thought so!
However, she dismissed the thought. Sean Knight merely had good luck. Real salvaging still depended on the salvage ship.
But now that Sean Knight had already found the box, how far could the sunken ship be?
Lana Brown was genuinely thrilled!
She was like a little girl showing off her favorite toy to Sean Knight.
Watching her lively, excited expression, Sean Knight couldn’t help but think that perhaps she had a cute side after all!
However, Sean Knight wasn’t fooled, and simply nodded:
"Yeah, I think so, too. This box of loot can be considered our opening success. Our split is 40-60, right? Let’s count, you get 60 percent, and I’ll leave 40 percent on my yacht."
Lana Brown’s excitement was bluntly interrupted by Sean Knight’s official tone.
She still reluctantly asked, "Mr. Knight, aren’t you happy?"
"Of course I am!" Sean Knight smiled, "Just for these silver ingots, I could make tens, even hundreds of millions! How could I not be happy? But this scene is too small, not worth getting too excited over."
With a touch of resentment, Lana Brown thought to herself: Stingy! No sense of romance! Classic case of final-stage straight-man cancer!
Although she thought this, she still squatted down and counted the ingots one by one.
This concerned her family’s evaluation of her, so she had to be cautious.
Lana Brown was too excited, so she did the counting herself.
Sean Knight was happy to watch her count, like a little miser.
"There are a total of sixty silver ingots, I get thirty-six, and you get twenty-four." Finally, Lana Brown announced the numbers, "This box... "
"The box is yours." Sean Knight didn’t care for the box.
"That’s great! You’re so nice!" Lana Brown happily praised Sean Knight.
However, to Sean Knight’s surprise, Lana Brown didn’t transfer the silver ingots to the salvage ship in the end but left them on the yacht.
Not only the silver ingots, but Lana Brown herself also stayed on the yacht - only two staff members were guarding the other side.
The small boat carried a poker-faced and sulky Lambert Bruno to the salvage ship, while Lana Brown couldn’t wait for Sean Knight to take her diving.
She wanted to see the underwater location of the box herself.
According to Lana Brown’s idea, since the box had been salvaged, the sunken ship must be nearby!
Although Sean Knight was lucky to find the box, the salvage ship still took the lead when it came to searching for the sunken ship.
However, if he could personally dive and see the sunken ship, and take some underwater videos, wouldn’t that be even better?
Sean Knight waved his hand:
"I can’t take you with me; the underwater situation is quite complicated. If something happens after going down, I won’t be able to take responsibility."
This was Sean’s sincere words. There were many sea snakes and dangers underwater, and he didn’t want to carry a burden with him.
Moreover, if he really found something like a box of gold, would he hand it over?
Of course not.
As for his strength, he only needed to reveal a little. If he exposed everything, he’s not a lapdog?
Lana Brown tried to act spoiled again, but it didn’t work anymore.
She was sulking, but soon cheered up.
It turned out that she sent the video to her tribe leader, and even though it was evening, Justin Brown didn’t go to sleep. After watching the video, he praised Lana Brown.
The meaning was that if she did a good job and got the goods, she would be in charge of a business in the family.
Lana Brown had been planning this for a long time, and this was the day she had been waiting for. At this moment, she couldn’t care about Sean’s previous indifference. She hugged him with excitement, almost bursting into tears.
Lambert Bruno, who had just returned to the salvage ship and looked back, couldn’t help but curse:
"Shameless couple!"
Sean Knight was also startled by Lana Brown’s sudden hug.
What’s going on?
Was she trying to seduce him?
He wasn’t a casual kind of person!
Fortunately, Lana Brown was just momentarily excited and quickly realized her reaction, and sheepishly explained to Sean that she was too excited.
Sean waved his hand to indicate it was okay—after all, he’d taken advantage, so of course, it was okay now.
The feeling made Sean understand that this girl was all-natural, and she hadn’t had any surgery!
Quite impressive!
Finally, Lana Brown wasn’t able to go down and stayed on the yacht to help.
Sean Knight went down instead. He knew there was nothing else nearby, so he stopped salvaging and brought up some seafood to try a new way of cooking.
Elijah Hastings and the others also went into the water, mostly out of curiosity. Since Sean got something, they could try their luck too!
When Sean brought up a net pocket of seafood, changed into his diving suit and was about to cook, he was surprised to find that Lana Brown was handling the seafood quite skillfully.
Looking up at Sean, she asked while working:
"Why are you making that face?"
"I always thought you were the kind of person who never worked with your hands. You’re so beautiful and grew up in that kind of family, so it’s quite surprising that you have this skill."
"Hehe," Lana Brown’s movement paused for a moment, then she continued working and said:
"If I told you that when I was little, I had no money to buy food and had to secretly pick up seafood on the beach and cook it, would you believe me?"
Sean shook his head.
Lana Brown didn’t explain either and continued her task.
Some sad things were better kept to oneself.
At this time, the salvage ship had already started its operation.
Meanwhile, at Jakarta, that group was overjoyed!
The boss excitedly gathered everyone together.
Charles Wright was very unhappy. He had just started talking to a beautiful girl, and if he could chat for half an hour more, he was 80% sure he could take her to the hotel.
However, the boss’s phone call was too urgent, so he had to give up.
"Great news!" The boss saw the expressions of his subordinates, but he believed that as long as he announced the news, everyone else would cheer up!
"I got inside information that Sean and his group already found the first treasure box, which is full of silver ingots!"
"Really? So soon?" Charles Wright had already forgotten the beautiful girl, and asked in astonishment:
"Does Sean really have magical abilities or extraordinary luck?"
At this moment, his tone was full of envy, which everyone else in the room could hear.
"Who cares, in the end, it’s all going to be ours!" The black man grinned, "Let’s just think of them as working for us now!"
The others all laughed!
