It's not that he was worried that they would covet the things in the box, but he was afraid that if this matter was leaked, trouble would come, so Zheng Gan gave them a very serious warning.
Everyone nodded and promised very wisely. In fact, their thoughts were simple. Since they had to rely on others for their livelihood, the things in the box would definitely not become theirs. Or, the benefits they could get from revealing this secret would not be as much as what they could get from working here, so they would definitely keep their mouths shut.
Looking at everyone's reactions, Zheng Gan nodded with satisfaction, and then asked Lin Hao to go to the cabin to get the tools and prepare for an on-site unboxing.
The exciting moment is about to arrive. At this moment, everyone feels like when they are about to open a treasure chest in a TV drama. This feeling of anticipation is simply unparalleled.
"Haozi, let's pry open the boxes." Zheng Gan pointed at the first box, then picked up the crowbar and prepared to open it.
These iron boxes had been at the bottom of the sea for quite some time and were already extremely rusty. The locks on the doors were easily opened by the two of them.
"Oh my God! This...there's actually something in here..." Jiang Feng, who was the most curious, stuck his head in as soon as the box was opened. He almost went crazy when he saw what was inside. He even wiped his eyes, fearing that he was hallucinating.
When the others saw his big reaction, they pushed him aside. Then they saw a dozen or so old men gathered around the box, breathing in the cold air and sobbing.
Even Zheng Gan was a little excited, because the box was neatly packed with gold bars! Gold bars!
"It's real gold, no problem. And you can tell at a glance that it's something from ancient times, an antique." Song Zhao said after looking at it carefully.
The capacity of this iron box is about 20 kilograms. According to the current gold price, 1 gram of gold is recycled for about 400 yuan, and 20 kilograms of gold is more than 4 million yuan.
"Hiss." Everyone present gasped. It was not uncommon for them to have earned more than four million. After fishing for such a long time, the harvest was at least three to four million.
But can this be compared to gold? The key is that there are four of these iron boxes, one worth more than 4 million, so four of them are worth 16 million.
That’s the price of an ocean-going fishing boat.
And another thing is that these golds are considered antiques, so the price will definitely be higher.
Restraining their excitement, Zheng Gan and Lin Hao continued to unpack the boxes. After opening all four boxes, several people present had collapsed on the deck, obviously excited.
"Everyone, I won't say much else. After these things are sold, I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory reward." The big stick has been given before, and now some candy is needed.
This is more than 10 million in gray income. Shouldn't he at least take out 10% to shut everyone up?
Now the key question is how to transport the gold back? Is it just placed on the ship like this? The key is that you will have to undergo inspection when you return to your country. What if you are discovered?
So Zheng Gan planned to think carefully about how to properly deal with this batch of gold.
After the lively show, everyone on the boat returned to the cabin to rest with excitement. Today was a very exciting day. They fought with the giant octopus and explored the shipwreck on the seabed. It was really enjoyable. The key is that they can get a handsome reward afterwards, which is even better.
Zheng Gan had just laid down when Song Zhao called him up, saying that he had something to talk to him about.
"What's wrong, Uncle Song?" After the two of them arrived on the deck, Zheng Gan was very curious. He would not normally look for him at this time.
"Agan, have you figured out what to do with all this gold?" Song Zhao went straight to the point and spoke very directly.
Zheng Gan shook his head bitterly upon hearing this. "Well, to be honest with you, Uncle Song, although these gold bars are good things, I really can't think of any way to dispose of them. Besides, it's quite stressful to keep them in my hands all the time."
"Well, this is indeed a problem." Song Zhao was silent for a moment. "Then, ask Song Lei to help you contact someone to see if he can digest these gold bars locally."
"Ah? Will this work?" Zheng Gan frowned. It's not that he didn't trust Song Lei, but the main reason was that the gold being sold now was gold without any formalities. Even if Song Lei had strength in the local area, he might not be able to get involved in this kind of gray business.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Song Zhao explained in detail what Song Lei's situation was like in Sri Lanka. After he finished speaking, Zheng Gan was stunned.
He had never expected Song Lei, who looked like a cultured person, to actually be considered a big brother in the underworld. This was simply blinding Zheng Gan's eyes.
It turns out that Song Lei ran to Sri Lanka to live in his early years because of his disagreement with his father's ideas. He has come step by step from an ordinary Chinese to where he is today, and almost everything he has can be said to be obtained through his own efforts.
It is precisely because he is a big brother figure here that the relationship between father and son is actually very ordinary.
Zheng Gan scratched his head and sighed, "I didn't expect Song Lei to be so capable. He can do so well on his own outside."
"Hmph." Song Zhao snorted coldly and didn't say much. Very few people knew about this. He had always claimed to be doing seafood business abroad.
"Go contact him yourself. This is all I can do for you. I've pulled out all the tips I can."
After saying that, he left without looking back. Zheng Gan smiled, then returned to the cabin, picked up the satellite phone and called Song Lei.
"Brother Gan, did you get some good stuff again? No problem, I'll be waiting for you at the dock right away." It was early in the morning and Song Lei had just fallen asleep, but he immediately became alert when he heard Zheng Gan's voice.
He has been making a lot of money recently with the batches of good goods provided by Zheng Gan. Not only did he make money, but he also grabbed a lot of market share. This is much more important than money, so he would not have any complaints even in the early morning.
"It's not seafood, it's this matter, I want to ask your opinion." Zheng Gan then told the story of finding gold on the seabed.
"Do you think you can help me with this?"
Song Lei on the other end of the phone gave a wry smile. "It seems my dad has told you everything. This matter is troublesome, but not troublesome either. I'll study it first and tell you the results when I have them."
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Gan lay down. Just as he was dozing off, the phone rang again.
"Brother, the gold issue has been negotiated, but the other party wants to charge a 20% handling fee."
