Chapter 600 Don’t Call Me Even If the Sky Falls

Friedrich, who was back in Germany, had a look of disdain on his face. "A bumpkin is a bumpkin! Just to show off he can afford to ship beer and snacks from China? Not to mention their beer isn't nearly as good as ours, with his attitude, he's destined to be a cheap beer drinker! Heidi, get a few bottles of Kessler's Veuve Clicquot from my cellar and put them here so everyone can relax! But everyone must keep a close eye on them! Report their every move to me immediately!"

"Yes, Prince!"

After Heidi brought the wine, she pushed Friedrich out of the room. "You don't have to keep watching so closely. How could you not know what's going on on the ship? How many surveillance cameras did you install on the ship? And he didn't even notice?"

Friedrich chuckled after hearing this and said, "I overestimated him! I even contacted the military to install this thing, but their defenses were practically nonexistent! Come to think of it, they're just a bunch of sailors, what do they know?! And this guy's really been so carried away by his title of 'Salvage King' that he didn't even turn off his AIS! He thought those people were in the Mediterranean? Now everyone knows his location! The Vultures have been watching him since he left the high seas. He can't salvage this shipwreck! Why not let him earn 1.5 billion a year and get our artifacts back?"

Heidi smiled and said, "This is the right way to do it. Look how uncultured the Chinese are. They just threw those three containers into the sea."

"Inferior country, inferior nation!" Friedrich snorted coldly.

"But there's money!" said Heidi.

Friedrich laughed. "But his money will soon be mine! And my cultural relics too! Do you know what else I'll gain from doing this?"

"What's the benefit?" asked Heidi.

Friedrich said, "After this incident, all the Chinese artifacts in my possession have been showcased to the world. This is the perfect advertisement. Previously, I had to sell things in secret because of concerns about my family's reputation. Now, after this, countless people will come directly to me and actively ask to buy! I can make money while also expanding my network! What Xiao said is very true. If I do this, my personal reputation will be skyrocketing. After all, this image of 'disregarding money as dirt' is very popular among all walks of life. The line of the 'Prince of Hedingen' is now far more famous than the line of the 'Prince of Prussia'. In a year, these artifacts will be back in my pocket, and with an extra 1.5 billion euros, I can definitely push our family back to its historical peak! Otherwise, why would I agree to the conditions of that Chinese man? He is too inexperienced compared to me!"

"I can't wait to see him get humiliated! Hahahaha!" Friedrich was clearly in a good mood. "Come on, let's celebrate! Let's go to 'Old William' and book a table. We can have a romantic candlelight dinner."

"Well... I suggest you don't go." Heidi said.

"Why?" Friedrich was stunned. "Don't you like eating 'Old William' the most?"

Heidi said hurriedly, "Your wife has booked a table at 'Old William' today. She's with her fitness trainer."

Friedrich was silent for a moment and then said, "Then let's go to 'The Old Man and the Sea'. Oh, if I wasn't worried about her dividing too much of my assets, I would have divorced her long ago! She's not as good as you!"

Heidi smiled and said, "You've given me enough! I'm very satisfied with my life now."

After hearing this, Friedrich touched Heidi's hand that was pushing the wheelchair. "Yes, I like your contented nature the most. Let's go eat!"

…

The situation on the 'Calysop' can only be described as a mess.

Although everyone on board was a heavy drinker, Xiao Peng had brought too much beer, and fresh beer was meant to be enjoyed fresh; the older it was, the less flavorful it became. Xiao Peng's words, "The water from my hometown is the most unforgettable," also stirred up homesickness in everyone, and everyone on board drank heartily, the entire ship reeking of alcohol.

How could they move forward in this state? The ship sailed slowly on the sea for four days. On the evening of the fourth day, the ship finally arrived at the location Xiao Peng had reserved in advance.

"Boss, is this the designated salvage location?" asked Captain Chen Cheng.

As a result, Xiao Peng leaned on the sofa behind the captain's room and did not answer.

Chen Cheng was stunned, looked back and almost laughed out loud.

Xiao Peng sat there, still half drunk! He'd been forced to drink in every cabin he'd been in these past few days, and he'd been so drunk he'd lost his way, so he took refuge in the captain's cabin.

"Boss, do you want Lao Zhu to make you a hangover soup?" Chen Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Liu, ask Zhu Youdao to make you a hot and sour soup to sober you up!"

Xiao Peng came back to his senses at this time. He waved his hand and said, "Xiao Liu, there's no need to go through so much trouble! Chen Cheng, just drop anchor here."

"Drop anchor? Do I need to ask the people on the boat to prepare? Get the HOV and ROV ready?" Chen Cheng asked.

Xiao Peng waved his hand and said, "Tell everyone to have a good night's rest and be refreshed. Tomorrow, when Fabian arrives with the dredging ship, we'll begin the salvage exercise!"

After hearing this, Chen Cheng nodded and said, "I know what to do!"

"Tell everyone not to drink tonight!" Xiao Peng said, clutching his head. "I really regret shipping all that beer from China! Couldn't I have just gotten some water from the Yellow River? That's water from home! Never do that again!"

Chen Cheng suppressed a laugh and said, "Boss, what did you say originally? Doesn't this represent 'good intentions but bad results'? Anyway, everyone is happy, right?"

Xiao Peng said, "Alright, alright, if I do something stupid like this again, remember to stop me!"

"But you didn't let us know you were going to do this!" Chen Cheng said.

Xiao Peng: "...It's impossible to chat now, Kaxin, let's go play games!"

"Boss, you're still playing games when you're this drunk?" Kasin said, "Why don't you take a good rest and continue working tomorrow."

Xiao Peng thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. I'm going to get some sleep. Chen Cheng, arrange the shifts and we'll start the drill tomorrow!"

Just as Chen Cheng was about to agree, he suddenly frowned and said, "Boss, something is not right!"

"Hmm?" Xiao Peng rubbed his temples: "What happened?"

Chen Cheng glanced at the touchscreen chart on the console and said, "Boss, a lot of ships have suddenly appeared nearby. The AIS shows they're not far away."

Xiao Peng yawned. "There's no village or shop here. These few ships are probably just passing by. Okay, don't bother me with such trivial matters. Don't disturb me when I'm sleeping!"

"But……"

"No buts, it's settled! Don't call me if the sky falls!"
