Chapter 258: Long Hair, Short Wisdom
It really is a patrol boat coming!
Boss Guo's heart skipped a beat. He had no idea what was in the box.
They won’t all be confiscated, right?
Zhou Guohua and Wen Wan both breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, someone had come who could uphold justice.
Zhou Guohua climbed onto the boat and took off his wet clothes.
Jiang Xia saw that his body was still wrapped in gauze. How could he go into the water before his wound had healed?
As expected, they value money over life! Zhou Chenglei stood on the other side of Jiang Xia, blocking her from looking at Zhou Guohua.
What’s so good about a boiled chicken?
Zhou Guohua was the same. He didn't know there were women present and had the nerve to take off his clothes.
Jiang Xia didn't notice someone's pettiness. She just took a look and turned to look at the boat approaching from a distance.
Soon the boat came up to them, and the people on board were shouting, "What are you doing gathered here?"
The staff first looked at Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia, probably because they had just met.
Jiang Xia: "This is the sea area that my family has contracted to raise fish. We saw them gathering here and jumping into the sea. We were afraid that they might steal the fish we raised, so we came to take a look. We just arrived not long ago, so we don't know exactly what happened."
Wen Wan: "Comrade, I found a few boxes on the seabed. They came to grab them before I even pulled them out! They said they were inherited from their ancestors, which is clearly an excuse for grabbing them! First come, first served, comrade, do you think these boxes should belong to us?"
Wen Wan then looked at Boss Guo and said, "Do you have evidence to prove that these boxes are your ancestors' heirlooms? If you have evidence, please bring it out and let the marine surveillance comrades judge. Return the items to us without any trouble! For unclaimed items, first come first served is the rule."
Boss Guo was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot.
As expected, the hair is long but the knowledge is short!
Even now she still thinks this thing is hers!
The comrades took a look at the boxes on Boss Guo's boat, and the leader said, "Let's go and see what's in the boxes."
As he said that, he was the first to jump onto Boss Guo's boat.
Two other staff members also jumped onto Boss Guo's boat.
Boss Guo is heartbroken!
He prayed madly in his heart that the contents were just ordinary gold bars and silver nuggets.
It must not be an antique! Otherwise it must be confiscated!
In fact, you don’t even need to open the four boxes to determine that they are cultural relics, because the boxes are all made of bronze, and the locks are also bronze locks!
Boss Guo’s heart is bleeding!
No more!
No more!
Nothing is left!
My dear ancestors, why did you leave some treasures in the sea? Why did you put them in such a good box? The staff did not know how to pry open the lock, so as not to damage the cultural relics.
The staff then said that the cultural relics obtained from the sea belong to the country, unless you have evidence to prove that they are truly inherited from your ancestors.
How could Boss Guo have any evidence? Besides, since it was hidden by the former pirate leader, it must have been obtained illegally. He was afraid that there might be something famous inside, so he couldn't take it out. He didn't even dare to admit that it was an heirloom.
Boss Guo's heart was bleeding, but he still smiled very tactfully and said, "Then hand it over to the country."
Although he was heartbroken, he had already turned over a new leaf and decided to be a good citizen who abides by the law.
The world has changed and society has become harmonious. There is a lot of potential in this world. Why would you still want to be a pirate?
Of course he paid the money readily, and also because he wanted to get acquainted with these staff members and build relationships with them, so he spoke very generously.
Wen Wan: "The box is a cultural relic, but the things inside may not be! Not all antiques are cultural relics, right? What if they contain ordinary gold bars or silver nuggets?"
Boss Guo: "No matter what, I'll donate it!"
The leader of the team laughed and said, "This comrade is great, he has a high level of ideological awareness! After the experts study the contents of this box, they will be sent to the museum for collection and for everyone to see. You can go and have a look! I thank you on behalf of the people and the motherland!"
Wen Wan pursed her lips, feeling very distressed! Of course he had a high level of ideological awareness, he donated her things!
But apparently no one thought any of it was hers.
Boss Guo smiled and said, "You're welcome. It's my honor. I'll definitely go and see it when the time comes!"
The staff member gave a thumbs-up, and then he directed everyone to move all four boxes onto the ship.
The box was very heavy, so Boss Guo, being a good person, even brought a boatman with him to help move it.
The staff asked them where they got it, and then Boss Guo asked the boatman to take them to the bottom of the sea to check it out.
Zhou Chenglei borrowed a set of diving equipment and they went into the sea to check. After confirming that nothing was missed, the staff reminded them: "Don't destroy those coral reefs. It's not easy for such a large coral reef to grow in our area. Do you know? Otherwise, you will be held responsible."
Everyone agreed.
After seeing that everyone agreed, the staff sailed away.

After the boat left, the boatman said, "Boss, why did you donate all the things our ancestors left behind? We have been looking for them for so many years!"
Boss Guo: "What else? Do you have evidence to prove that it was left by your ancestors?"
What Boss Guo didn't say was that, although the boxes were heavy, they probably didn't contain gold or silver, because if they were filled with gold bars they would only be heavier.
Wen Wan listened and looked at Boss Guo. Was it really left by their ancestors? Boss? Could his ancestors be pirates?
The main thing is that the boxes placed in the hole are obviously man-made.
Humph! That's fine! I've worked so hard for nothing! As long as Jiang Xia doesn't get it, she's happy to confiscate it!
Boss Guo glanced coldly at Wen Wan and Zhou Guohua. If it weren't for them, he would have left long ago after fishing out those boxes.
Now, after searching for such a long time, I finally found it, but there is nothing left. All my efforts were in vain!
The marine surveillance ship had not gone far yet, and Zhou Chenglei was there too. Boss Guo did not argue with them. He looked at Zhou Chenglei and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, I am sorry to bother you today. I am leaving first! If anyone dares to approach the sea area you have contracted in the future, I will help you drive them away!"
After saying that, he glanced at Wen Wan and the other person again.
Zhou Chenglei: "Thank you."
Boss Guo waved his hand and the boatman sailed away.
Zhou Chenglei looked at Zhou Guohua: "Are you still not leaving?"
Zhou Guohua felt that Boss Guo had a bad look in his eyes and wanted to wait until the other party was far away before leaving.
After all, the other side had more people and more power, while he and Wen Wan were only two people.
But Zhou Chenglei chased him away, and he felt embarrassed to stay here any longer, so he had to sail away.
Jiang Xia looked at Wen Wan and said, "This is the sea area we contracted. Please don't go into the sea casually in the future! Don't say I didn't remind you. If I see you go into the sea in the sea area contracted by my family, I will treat it as stealing the fish I raise on the seabed! Call the police!"
Wen Wan rolled her eyes. She only cared about her few fish! It wasn't like her family was the only one that rented the sea area. Her family also rented it!
What's so great about that?
If it wasn't for the fact that Zhou Chenglei and she had saved her life, Wen Wan would have fought back!
She would say: Don’t go to my home or my waters, don’t even pass by, otherwise if one of the fish in my cages dies, I will hold you accountable!
However, since Zhou Chenglei had saved her, she let it go! She was not as unreasonable as Jiang Xia.
After Zhou Guohua's boat sailed away, Zhou Chenglei said, "Let's go to the sea too! Let's catch sea urchins."
Zhou Chengxin said excitedly: "By the way, let's go see if there are any more boxes, or if anything has leaked out of those boxes! Maybe we can pick up a gold ring or something!"
