Chapter 378
Su Qingci went to the control room again to study the steering.
On the huge control console, there are not only various lights but also several small handles. Some are like the gear shift handles of manual transmission cars in later generations, and some are as small as a cigarette.
There is a steering wheel above the seat next to it.
"What kind of antique cruise ship is this?"
"Don't yachts of later generations only have forward and reverse gears?"
"What are these red and green buttons?"
"Stop on red and go on green? There's no yellow light either?"
Su Qingci fumbled around for a while and pressed several buttons, but still couldn't find the trick.
After studying it for a while, she found that there were several buttons on the cabinet below, just like an old computer mainframe.
"Isn't this the start button?"
Su Qingci hesitated for a moment and pressed the button.
"Boom, bang, bang, bang~"
It's like the sound of a hand-held tractor starting up on TV.
The entire cruise ship began to vibrate slightly.
Su Qingci's eyes lit up, this meant he had found the right button.
She tried pushing forward on the handle on the console.
The engine that had just been prepared drove the propeller with a diameter of more than 1 meter under the cruise ship to rotate rapidly.
The cruise ship on the sea began to move forward slowly.
Su Qingci's face was full of joy. Oh my god, she is a talented person. She can drive a cruise ship, and she learned it without any instruction.
Wait, what direction is this facing now?
Su Qingci waved her hand, took out her cell phone, and opened the compass.
Just as she looked up, a protruding object not far ahead caught her attention.
The cruise ship slowly approached, and Su Qingci was a little nervous. Could it be a reef? If it hit it, it would be terrible.
It seems like the Titanic sank after hitting a reef, right?
“No, no, no~”
"You can't get any closer~"
Su Qingci tried to turn the handle.
Pull it back, damn, it starts to move backwards quickly.
Just press the engine button below.
Pick up the telescope on the console and look forward.
What the hell? It's blurry and not very clear.
Su Qingci walked out of the control room, ran to the deck, and looked carefully ahead with a telescope.
"Why does this look like a whale that died in the sea?"
Su Qingci put down the telescope, stood in front for a while, and decided to go and take a look.
Release the boat, stop the cruise ship in place, and row the boat forward.
After thinking it was unsafe, he turned back and took the cruise ship to the farm.
What if there is an accident later, or the wind blows again and the cruise ship is blown away?
Su Qingci rowed the boat slowly towards the huge monster exposed on the sea.
When she was about forty or fifty meters away, she finally saw it clearly.
A huge bow protruding from the water.
Eighty percent of the hull and stern were submerged in the sea, and only about 20 percent of the bow deck was exposed above the sea and did not sink.
Su Qingci's heart moved.
Look at this rusty thing, could it be an ancient ocean-going cargo ship?
In my previous life, I often saw news about ship salvage on the Internet, and how many antique porcelains and treasures were found.
She suppressed the excitement in her heart, waved her arms, and rowed the boat slowly closer.
As the distance got closer, the excitement on her face faded. She saw something that looked like an antenna, and also saw the control console in the control room through a glass window exposed on the water.
This is a modern industrial ship.
But how did it sink here? Where are the people on board?
What is being pulled on the boat?
Su Qingci had a face full of questions. When she got closer, she waved her hand without thinking and took the big boat into the farm. Then she disappeared on the sea with the small boat.
The huge fishing boat lay quietly on the vast lawn.
The sea water in the hold was still rushing out, then fell on the grass and disappeared.
Su Qingci held a steel fork in his hand and appeared on the deck with a thought.
"Hey, dead, dead..."
As soon as she got on the deck, Su Qingci's face changed drastically. She saw a body lying on the floor with its face covered by the deck railing.
Su Qingci walked over slowly and took a quick look. It was still an oriental face. Thinking of the violent storm last night, it must be an industrial ship that was not able to escape the natural disaster and was killed.
I felt uneasy, not knowing whose husband or son had died in the sea.
Using his mind power, he controlled the man to fly into the air and slowly placed him on the lawn under the boat.
It hasn't turned pale or swollen yet, and the facial features can be clearly seen. It is estimated that he has been dead for no more than ten hours.
After dealing with the male corpse on the deck, Su Qingci slowly walked inside.
There was no one in the control room, and the control panel host was only slightly soaked in water. If there were no problems with the engines, it would probably still be usable after some repairs.
Su Qingci quickly swept through the first floor and cleared out a total of five bodies.
They all had oriental faces and attire. Su Qingci guessed that this ship should belong to China.
The second floor was full of rooms, and several more bodies were cleared out. From the thick calluses on their hands, their tanned skin, and their clothes full of patches, it could be seen that they were all poor people.
Su Qingci felt a little uncomfortable. These were probably the pillars of the family. Losing such a pillar would be a devastating blow to a family.
Using his mind to control the corpses, Su Qingci placed them all on the lawn, then walked towards the warehouse downstairs.
A huge hole appeared on the hull near the tail of the bottom warehouse, more than one meter high and nearly three meters in diameter.
"It seems that this is the reason for the shipwreck!"
Su Qingci looked outside from the door and jumped onto the lawn.
From the outside, a large part of the hull was dented. If she guessed correctly, it must have hit a reef or something in the sea.
“What a pity.”
After a thorough search of the bottom warehouse, Su Qingci found the huge ice storage, which was full of seafood.
Most of them are precious tuna, yellow croaker and deep-sea silver cod, which are estimated to be nearly ten tons.
“It turned out to be an industrial fishing vessel.”
At that time, technology was backward and fishing basically relied on the most primitive method of casting nets. In order to catch a full warehouse of fish, the crew members were either the best experts or had been at sea for a long time.
Unfortunately, these dozens of tons of fish ended up being lost to him.
Not to mention tuna, wild yellow croaker is known as the gold of water. At its peak, it was even sold for over ten thousand yuan per pound.
The size of the silver cod is dozens or even hundreds of kilograms.
You know, silver cod are not easy to catch. They basically live in the deep sea area below 100 meters in the ocean. Her method of spreading pork to make fish nests cannot catch silver cod.
Because silver cod is rich in nutrients and has very few bones, it has been eaten to the point of being an endangered species in later generations.
Ninety percent of the silver cod on the market in later generations are fake. Real silver cod is difficult to buy on the market, and the price is about 200 to 300 yuan per catty.
A silver cod weighing about ten pounds costs 2,000-3,000 yuan.
Now, it's all hers?
