Chapter 1015 Looking for a Needle in a haystack 1

Chapter 115 Looking for a needle in a haystack (1) [Ask for a monthly ticket]

"Boom!"

The dark sky danced in silver, drawing lightning and falling on the sea, followed by deafening thunder, as if it were bursting in the ears, making people smell and change their voices.

Zhuang Rui's 10,000-ton cruise ship has also become so small under the power of heaven. The huge waves of more than ten meters high swing the hull left and right, like a lonely boat on the endless sea.

" King Kong, come on, put on..."

Zhuang Rui tore a quilt, took out cotton wool from it, and stuffed it into his ears. The powerful King Kong, who had always been under the lightning and thunder, also looked fragile at this moment. He squatted in the corner of the room and lost his usual spirituality.

At the beginning of the storm, the golden eagle also rushed into the room from the window with rain, and kept screaming, as if complaining to Zhuang Rui.

At the meeting organized by the Ministry of Communications three days ago, an agreement was finally reached. The salvage of the "Abo Maru" was led by the Ministry of Transport and carried out jointly by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Institute of Peking University and several units of Dingguang Museum.

The agreement states that the state organization used for the salvage, the private fund-raising method, all the property salvaged belongs to the state.

As the investor and the main force of salvage, Zhuang Rui received such a promise: all the cultural relics salvaged this time will be handed over to the Dingguang Museum for exclusive display after being identified and verified by the relevant departments and ensuring their safety.

The age is five years. After five years, the Dingguang Museum must hand over the relevant cultural relics to the country. Although this result is a little different from the expectations in my heart, Zhuang Rui also agreed.

After all, Zhuang Rui said it hard, but he still wants to make some contributions to the country in his heart. If all the wreckage of the Awa Maru can come out of the water, whether in terms of economy or international influence, it will be of great benefit to the country.

And if there are really any precious cultural relics in the water, five years is enough for Huangfuyun to operate, which can definitely turn the reputation of cultural relics into benefits in the short term, and the light museum will bring substantial revenue.

I thought it was a very leisurely trip, so in the salvaging of the Awa Maru in the waters of Fujian, Zhuang Rui not only brought his wife and children, but also brought a pet to the ship except for the white lions who did not like water.

It's just that Zhuang Rui didn't expect that the first night he had on the sea would be hit by a storm.

Zhuang Rui did not know that September was the typhoon season in Fujian waters. If it hadn't been for this, Vice Minister Yu would not have been able to keep an eye on his "luxury salvage ship".

You should know that although there are no tens of thousands of tons of salvage ships in China, there are still thousands of tons of medium-sized salvage ships. If you don't consider the ability to resist storms, there is no problem for ordinary salvage ships to cope with the sea water dozens of meters deep in this sea area.

"Xianbing, tomorrow during the day, let the helicopter send your mother back to the shore..."

Looking at his wife's pale face, he felt a little guilty. It's okay for him to toss around outside. It's really not a man's behavior to let his wife and children suffer together.

"No... I want to accompany you, Zhuang Rui, I really didn't know your work was so dangerous..."

A flash of lightning outside the window, followed by a thunderbolt, made Qin Xuanbing's body can't help but get into Zhuang Rui's arms. Instead, the pair of children who were tired of playing during the day were stuffed in their ears and were sleeping soundly at this moment.

"Well, you'll be in the room with your child tomorrow. Don't go to the deck..."

Zhuang Rui nodded helplessly. Because the ship was his, in order to facilitate the command and coordination of the work, the salvage gave Zhuang Rui'an the title of deputy commander-in-chief.

Of course, the deputy commander-in-chief plus him had a total of six, but this also tied Zhuang Rui to the ship, and many eyes looked at him. Zhuang Rui was also embarrassed to ask for leave to send his wife and children back to Beijing.

Li Zhen was far away in Myanmar at this time. Peng Fei's daughter had just been born and was working as a father in Beijing, so Zhuang Rui could not draw a hand and could only let Qin Xuanbing stay on the ship.

In the lightning and thunder, Zhuang Rui didn't know when he fell asleep. The next day, when he opened his eyes, he found a ray of sunlight shining through the curtains in the room, spilling pieces of golden light.

"Damn it, isn't it bullshit? Is this weather a child's face? Cry as soon as you cry, laugh as soon as you laugh?"

Zhuang Rui opened the curtains, and the dazzling sunlight outside made him narrow his eyes. Yesterday's rainstorm and thunder had completely disappeared. The sea gulls flew in the distance, and the wind and clouds in the sky were light.

The sea was originally changeable. The breeze was gentle the first moment, and the next moment might be a huge wave. However, the sunny weather made Zhuang Rui in a good mood. After serving the girl's son to wash up, he took his wife and children to the deck.

Zhuang Rui's team is a little eye-catching. There are two cute pink and jade-like children jumping in front of them, walking with Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang Rui in the middle, and the one behind is a little creepy.

Although King Kong, like people, is a primate, it has not fully evolved. The black hair and a height of more than two meters make the ship hide far away except for the old crew and security guards who are familiar with King Kong.

"Xiaozhuang, are you traveling or working?"

Professor Meng, who came to the deck for a long time, was also a little embarrassed to laugh and cry when he saw Zhuang Rui's style. The country attached great importance to this salvage. Zhuang Rui is easy to gossip.

"Come on, call Grandpa Meng..."

Zhuang Rui teased his son to call Professor Meng and said, "Teacher, this work can't delay the family, can it? I will often salvage at sea in the future. I can't leave them all at home, can I?

Zhuang Rui said from the bottom of his heart that if he chooses a job, he must give up his family, then he would rather do nothing. Anyway, with his current money, it is enough for the grandson of the little boy in front of him to squander.

"Come on, grandpa, hug..."

Professor Meng bent down and picked up Xiao Fangfang, with a loving smile on his face. He turned to Zhuang Rui and said, "It's good if you can think like this. Of course, it's the best to take care of both work and family..."

When he said this, the smile on Professor Meng's face slowly restrained. He didn't want to do this, but the economic and political environment in those years could not allow him to do so at all.

In the early 1980s, Professor Meng was released from Qincheng Prison. At that time, the country was waiting to be abandoned. Professor Meng also got into work, and even his wife did not know that he was suffering from a terminal illness.

It was also because of this. After his wife's death, Professor Meng's son complained to his old father. Later, after going abroad, he was unwilling to return to China. If it hadn't been for his granddaughter in China, the old man's evening would have been even more desolate.

"Teacher, put it down, don't be tired, this little guy is very heavy..."

Zhuang Rui frowned when he saw Professor Meng. He quickly took over Xiao Fangfang and asked his wife to take him to play. Because he was afraid of the weather changes, he specially found two security guards and asked them to follow closely.

"Xiaozhuang, you can't say the word "sink" when you go to sea. You are heard by the old sailor, but you have to curse..."

Standing on the deck and looking at the magnificent sea, this mood is like yesterday's storm, coming and going fast. After adjusting the mood, Professor Meng and Zhuang Rui made a joke.

"Hehe, I'm going to worship the Sea Dragon King later..."

Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard the words. Although he did not believe in ghosts and gods, the change of his eyes made Zhuang Rui still full of fear of the unknown things in this world. As the old saying goes: the older the world is, the less timid he is.

"It's better to ask for yourself, Xiaozhuang, it's better to find a way to quickly survey the location of the wreckage of the sunken ship and salvage it..."

Professor Meng is also a little afraid of yesterday's storm. He may meet it in a few days in this season, so he also wants to complete the salvage task as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, teacher, as long as there is wreck in this sea area, it will definitely be salvaged..."

Although he has not used Reiki to survey the sea area, Zhuang Rui is confident enough. He dares not say that he is looking for a needle in a haystack, but as long as there are objects containing Reiki at the seabed, Zhuang Rui will definitely find it.

While the two were talking, the day's work also began. According to the predetermined plan, the first thing is for the diver to dive into the bottom of the sea, survey the dynamics of the seabed in real time, and then according to the discovery, the purposeful removal of silt and salvage the hull.

This sea area is not far from the coastline, and the depth of the sea water is only dozens of meters. It has been turbulent by the undercurrents in the depths of the ocean for a long time, so the undersea structure is relatively complex and the survey is very difficult.

is different from the flat sandy seabed in the deep sea. Most of the seabeds here are silt structures. It has been more than 60 years since the sinking of the Awa Maru, and the bottom of the sea has long been completely lost.

"Professor Meng, the personnel are all assembled. Please say a few words. Among the salvage personnel this time, only you participated in the last salvage operation..."

The people who were put on the water this time were all divers from the Maritime Administration of the Ministry of Communications. A staff member came over and invited Professor Meng to tell these divers about the characteristics of the Awa Maru.

As for Zhuang Rui, the deputy commander-in-chief, he couldn't cut in at all. After staying by and listening for a while, Zhuang Rui simply turned back to the cabin and went straight to the ship's monitoring room.

"Boss, when are we going to the Atlantic Ocean or the Pacific Ocean? That's where the captain should go..."

Zhuang Rui stepped into the monitoring room and saw that the bearded Clyde was staying in it to watch American adult action movies. Seeing Zhuang Rui coming in, Captain Clyde quickly began to change the topic with a straight face.

"Captain Clyde, you should stay in the captain's room now, right?"

Zhuang Rui smiled secretly in his heart. The old man actually had this idea, but he drove Clyde out with a serious face. Someone was here, and he always felt a little unnatural to release his aura.
