Chapter 249 Growing Pains



After lunch, Yang Jing lay on his bed for a nap.

However, Yang Jing, who was lying on the bed, did not feel sleepy at all.

He really didn't expect that he would have such a big harvest just by visiting a flea market occasionally, and a small flea market like Beaumont that only opens once a week.

Not to mention the nautical chart drawn by the pirate Bodman nicknamed "Sea Snake", even Yang Jing did not dare to confirm whether this incomplete nautical chart was the legendary pirate treasure map. After all, this nautical chart was drawn very formally, and except for the route to the Arctic Ocean, the other routes were all standard.

Perhaps, when I get a chance to put this nautical chart together, it will be an ordinary nautical chart.

However, apart from this incomplete nautical chart, the miniature totem pole found from the old Indian man Mazululu was the real big leak.

Not to mention the treasure map drawn by Kuvaevich Antonov himself, the eight gems hidden in the totem pole alone are enough to be called a shocking leak!

Thirty thousand dollars in exchange for a profit of 175 million dollars, a profit of 5,833 times!

This profit ratio may not be as high as that of the Qianlong blue and white five-bat-holding-Shouguan-ear-vase, but in terms of pure profit, this leak should be regarded as the one with the largest profit for Yang Jing so far.

If you take the treasure map into account, the amount of things that were missed is truly astonishing.

That is the legendary treasure of the last Tsar!

It is said that when the last Russian Tsar Nicholas II was forced to abdicate, he secretly sent all the gold stored in the treasury and some precious antiques and artworks onto the armored train. The gold alone weighed 1,600 tons, and as for those antiques and artworks whose value was difficult to measure...

Although the gold may have sunk to the bottom of Lake Baikal along with Kolchak, what about the precious antiques? They are definitely antique works of art that anyone in the world would salivate over.

Apart from anything else, just looking at the oil paintings and artworks stored in the Winter Palace now is enough to show how valuable the antique artworks that Nicholas II secretly transported out were!

I hope that Mr. Kuvaevich Antonov can eventually successfully transport out the antique artworks entrusted to him by Kolchak!

However, Kolchak led an army of more than one million soldiers, but they were eventually drowned in the blizzard. Moreover, Kolchak's army marched eastward along the Siberian Railway. The small team of fifty people led by Kuvayevich Antonov marched northward along the Yenisei River. Under such harsh natural conditions, even God would not dare to guarantee that this small team of soldiers could reach their final destination.

Thinking of this, Yang Jing lost all his sleepiness. He sat up from the bed, looking at the afternoon sunlight outside the window, feeling a little uneasy for a moment.

Although the team led by Kuvayevich Antonov was small in number and had sufficient logistical supplies, who could guarantee that they could survive in such a bad weather? If Kuvayevich Antonov had been smarter and found a safe enough place to establish a base after leaving Krasnoyarsk and arriving in the Tunguska region, perhaps they could have survived that winter.

However, if Kuvaevich Antonov was not smart enough and insisted on heading towards his destination in winter, their mortality rate would most likely be 100%!

However, judging from this treasure map, Kuvaevich Antonov should be a smart person, otherwise this treasure map would not have been left behind, right?

And the most important thing is that the Indian once said that this miniature totem pole was obtained by Mazululu’s grandfather from a Russian he rescued when he was young. According to Mazululu’s age, wasn’t his grandfather still young in the 1920s?

Perhaps, the Russian man treated by Mazululu’s grandfather was the surviving Kuvaevich Antonov!

"Oh! I must go to that island this summer! By then, it will be clear whether the treasure of Nicholas II is real or not!" Yang Jing's head hurt a little from thinking about it, and finally gave up the idea of ​​continuing to think about it.

Since he couldn't sleep, Yang Jing simply got out of bed, put on his shoes and went out.

Workers not far away were still busy. All eight old oil wells needed to be replaced with larger diameter oil pipes, which was almost the same as drilling eight new wells. Fortunately, the depth of these eight wells was not very deep, only more than 400 meters, so it would only take about half a month to replace all the oil pipes in these eight wells.

By that time, the changes in the heavy oil in the underground reservoir will basically be completed, and all that remains is to continue to extract crude oil from far away.

These workers have been working here for seven or eight days, and it will take about a week before they can officially produce oil.

Yang Jing suddenly felt that there was no point in waiting here any longer. There was nothing for him to do waiting here, so he might as well just leave as soon as possible.

Yang Jing admitted that he was a person with little patience, especially this kind of meaningless waiting, which he was unwilling to endure. So in the afternoon, Yang Jing went directly to the fat man's house and told him that he was going out for a walk and then going back home.
