He bit the hose and went back into the water with the pickaxe, slowly reaching the bottom of the water.
The holes that had been dug previously had long since been refilled, and it looked as if they had always been there.
But from the traces of damage to some small corals nearby, Zhang Ze was able to easily find the specific location.
He raised the pickaxe and swung it down, then dug out a small hole by pulling back.
There is buoyancy at the bottom of the water, so it is not easy to dig a hole.
Fortunately, Zhang Ze's physical fitness is strong enough. Others may be exhausted after digging for ten minutes, but he can hold on for two hours.
The biggest impact on his physical fitness that the space brings to him is not strength and stamina, but the ability to sustain.
His physical strength recovered extremely quickly, so Tong Shuyao resumed her nightly surrender after more than a year.
Originally, she felt that she was now much stronger than before and could do more physical work, so at least she would not lose so badly at night.
However, reality is very frustrating. If Tong Shuyao didn't live with her mother-in-law, she would want to sleep on the sofa at least six days a week. It is true that the roles were reversed.
After digging under the water for two hours, Zhang Ze dug out a huge hole. It was not deep, but large enough.
And when he was digging, he found that he didn't encounter any large rocks or the like. There was only mud and sand, and some small corals growing on the surface.
But there has been no discovery yet, so Zhang Ze is not in a hurry.
He returned to the boat to rest, eat something and drink some water to replenish his energy.
After more than half an hour, I felt that my strength had almost recovered, so I continued.
It’s still early, so we can dig for another two hours.
By evening, Zhang Ze had dug a large pit with a diameter of more than five meters and a depth of about one and a half meters.
Of course, the pit is conical, and the mouth becomes narrower as it goes deeper.
However, this depth is just enough to cover the treasure chest last time. If we continue digging down another two meters and then expand it around, we can roughly determine whether there is anything underneath.
If nothing can be dug out, Zhang Ze can only wait until technology develops before looking for and excavating the treasure from the shipwreck here again.
Today's treasure hunt has come to an end. With the help of the evening sun, he can see that more and more fish are becoming active here.
However, before going up, Zhang Ze dug a small path around the outside of the pit.
The ocean current will slowly fill the hole with mud and sand. Digging a small path can effectively prevent mud and sand from falling into the hole, so that the hole will not become shallower when you dive tomorrow.
I returned to the boat, took a bath, and then steamed two Jiang Yao for myself.
After eating, I randomly found a spot to fish in the evening. I waited until the fish bite became worse and then went back to rest.
Early the next morning, Zhang Ze went into the water with a shovel.
The pit is a bit deep, so a shovel would be better than a pickaxe.
The small path dug last night was obviously very useful. Only the bottom of the big pit was filled with mud and sand, which could be dug out with a few shovels.
With a shovel of water and the lift up, the mud and sand will be dispersed and carried away by the flowing water. The disadvantage is that Zhang Ze's vision is blocked and he can't see anything.
But for the sake of speed, he didn't care.
After digging for an unknown amount of time, the shovel suddenly touched something hard.
Zhang Ze's heart moved. This touch was like touching porcelain! He did not continue digging this time, but swam up first to let the mud and sand in the pit settle down. At the same time, he washed the mud and sand on his body in the water, and picked up Jiangyao and some sea urchins and conchs nearby.
After a while, the pit finally became clear again.
Zhang Ze swam over, dug around at the bottom of the pit with his hands, and saw a piece of broken porcelain.
Found it, there really is a shipwreck treasure here.
Zhang Ze was both surprised and puzzled. Those who understand surprise will understand that the value of the treasure in the shipwreck is too high. Even a slightly valuable treasure would be more than what he earned in a year at sea.
There may be a large number of such treasures in the entire shipwreck treasure.
He could take these ordinary treasures to Hong Kong Island and sell them through Lu Wenbin.
It may fall into the hands of foreigners, but that doesn't matter.
He will keep the truly good things for himself, and will sell them unless they are rare treasures or national treasures.
Unfortunately, the treasure is buried under the water, and it is unknown how long it will take for him to dig it out by himself. This is also what Zhang Ze is wondering about.
But no matter what, he didn't want to miss such a treasure.
In the following days, Zhang Ze came here to dig for a few days, and then went to other places to fish for a few days.
When the time is almost up, I return home and spend time with my wife and children.
If there are treasures unearthed during this period and they are considered suitable for selling, Zhang Ze will follow Lu Wenbin to Hong Kong Island to find someone to appraise them. Only after determining their approximate value will they consider finding a buyer.
If it was a particularly precious item, he would keep it. During this period, he also gave a pair of vases to his grandparents.
He also gave Lu Wenbin some things, and because of these things, he would try his best to help Zhang Ze contact the transaction.
After receiving a large amount of Hong Kong dollars, Zhang Ze opened a fishery company and a seafood production company in Nanfang under the name of Lu Wenbin.
The fleet was expanded to 20 ships, and a special fleet for purse seine tuna was formed.
Zhang Ze has transformed from a fisherman into a big boss, and his identity has changed completely.
What others cannot understand is that he never tires of going out to sea and goes out to sea at least once a month.
Of course Zhang Ze would not explain, because the space was about to reach level 50, and he had only dug up a small half of the treasure from the shipwreck.
As autumn passed and the weather grew cooler, he stopped digging for treasure.
In addition to various domestic industries, Zhang Ze now has saved 5 million greenbacks and nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
There are three treasures that have been appraised in the house, and in the space there are some shipwreck treasures that no one knows about, as well as the priceless Melo Pearls.
With such a net worth, Zhang Ze is no longer interested in treasure, mainly because it is too difficult to dig.
He spent half a year digging out only a small part, and put the rest aside.
If he becomes a capital tycoon in the future, he will simply donate this treasure to the country, and he will not be short of money by then.
If you are unlucky and lose everything, you can continue digging and make a comeback.
But Zhang Ze felt that the second situation was impossible to happen. He invested in Pony Ma and also bought stocks such as Apple that were destined to make him rich. How could he possibly bankrupt his family?
As long as there is money, it is not difficult for a reborn person to make money. The difficult part for a reborn person is often the first pot of gold.
However, after becoming rich, Zhang Ze specially ordered a fishing boat that was 23.8 meters long.
Compared to the original fishing boat, the value of this fishing boat is enormous. It is a luxury fishing boat that he ordered from Europe for three million British pounds after selling a bunch of not-so-special shipwreck treasures.
There are live water tanks and freezer compartments on board, so the space is only slightly smaller than that of a fishing boat.
But the comfort level is very different from that of a fishing boat, and its wind and wave resistance level is also higher.
If a larger boat did not require several people to operate, Zhang Ze would probably buy a bigger one.
As for the source of his money, it was all laundered through Hong Kong Island, where he opened two shoe factories and entered the stock market to make it look like he had money. Therefore, a lot of his money could be used openly.
When Zhang Ze was preparing to go out to sea to upgrade his space to level 50, a phone call suddenly came to his home.
He picked up the phone and found that it was his fishing boat that had arrived.
After more than half a year, the boat finally arrived! In fact, the boat was basically finished when it was bought, and it only took two months to decorate it.
But the transportation took more than five months, making Zhang Ze wait from early summer to before the Chinese New Year in winter.
The ship has entered customs and the call came from there.
Zhang Ze asked Lin Hu to follow him and he would drive.
After getting the boat, he still has to go to the Maritime Administration to apply for relevant seagoing documents. Only after obtaining the documents can his boat be used in domestic waters.
It took several days to get the boat and process the documents.
When sailing became possible, Zhang Ze chose good weather and took his family out to sea.
Little Zhaonan just held his full-month celebration, and now he is plump and white and very cute.
On the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month, close to the Chinese New Year, three cars arrived at the fishing village.
The car parked on the open space at the new pier. Zhang Ze specially paid for a large pier for the village so that his fishing boat could be parked better.
He walked out of the car, went to the back and opened the door, then took Xiao Zhaonan from Tong Shuyao. Zhang Qing and Zhang Wu had already gotten out of the car from the other side.
Zhang's mother also opened the passenger seat, got out of the car and looked around the village she hadn't visited for a long time. She sighed: "I haven't been here for more than a year, and the village has changed a lot!"
"Yes, there are many red brick houses now, but there were only a few at the beginning!" Tong Shuyao also sighed.
Lu Wenbin's family and Zhang Ze's brother-in-law's family got out of the two cars behind.
Zhang Qian is pregnant, but the fetus is stable now, so it’s okay for her to go out and play.
With so many people coming today, naturally they want to go out to sea on Zhang Ze’s fishing boat.
After playing at sea for two days, Lu Wenbin and his family returned to Hong Kong Island to celebrate the New Year.
Zhang Ze and his friends won't go, as they think the New Year atmosphere is more festive in China these days.
A beautiful white fishing boat was parked at a berth near the dock.
The two brothers Lin Hu and Lin Long are on the boat at the moment, along with their pregnant daughter-in-law Sanmei, and Lin Hu's girlfriend who he has been dating for just a month.
Zhang Ze also invited them to this voyage, because if he was the only one who knew how to drive the boat, he would not be able to take care of it most of the time.
It would be much better to have two people who can drive a boat to help. Zhang Qinghe, his brother-in-law and others also went along today, but they drove their own trawler out to sea.
There was no other way. No matter how big the fishing boat was, it couldn't accommodate so many people, so they had to let them sleep.
The fishing boat left the dock first, followed closely by two trawlers.
The larger the ship, the smoother its sailing. The two pregnant women on board did not feel any discomfort for the time being.
The fetus has now entered a stable period. The two pregnant women have gone out to sea before, so there should be no problem this time.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
However, just as the boat left the Pearl River Estuary, a cry for help was heard from the sea on the left.
Zhang Ze turned his head and found that a small boat had capsized. There were two people sitting on it, waving at him for help.
The most important thing is that next to the overturned boat, there are several dorsal fins exposed above the water, which are obviously sharks.
Are sharks targeting humans?
Zhang Ze frowned, this was not a good thing.
He quickly turned around and notified Tong Yuanhang and Jin Sanbao to rescue people.
And he had to attract these sharks, catch them and kill them, so as to prevent people from accidentally dying in the mouths of sharks.
The shark that would run to the river mouth should be a bull shark, which is the only shark that would enter freshwater rivers.
Although great white sharks attack humans the most worldwide, tiger sharks come second, and bull sharks rank only third.
But great white sharks and tiger sharks are actually more out of curiosity. They will bite out of curiosity, and basically one bite is enough, and they will not bite again, so the number of injured people is far greater than the number of deaths.
Another point is that these two types of sharks rarely run to the coast in China, which is different from some places abroad.
Bull sharks will run into the river, and people who like to swim in the summer are particularly vulnerable to attacks.
Zhang Ze might not have time to deal with other sharks due to other things, but he would give priority to catching and killing this kind of shark even if he was busy, especially if it was found at coastal estuaries.
Upon hearing this, Jin Sanbao and Tong Yuanhang immediately accelerated over. Zhang Ze stopped nearby, then immediately took out a bamboo pole and went into the cold storage compartment, pretending to take out the bait, but in fact he exchanged it for a shark-exclusive bait from the space.
He was not sure whether these were bull sharks, so he did not exchange targeted bait just in case.
"Pregnant women and children, please stay in the cabin and don't go out to sea. I'm going to catch these sharks now to prevent more people from getting hurt."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wenbin immediately asked the woman and the child to go back, because when the shark was caught, its ferocious appearance would easily scare the children.
Only Lu Wenbin’s eldest son, who was already fifteen years old, was still staying on the deck out of curiosity.
Zhang Ze hung the bait and threw it into the water, then buckled the base and pressed the bamboo pole on it. This made fishing easy and he would be able to quickly catch the shark later.
As the bait entered the water, the shark that was originally trying to bite the small wooden boat seemed to have received some instructions and suddenly rushed over from a distance.
Jin Sanbao's boat was in front. It changed direction and its stern slowly moved towards the small wooden boat.
The stern of a trawler is different from that of an ordinary fishing boat. It can be opened and is usually used to collect and release nets, but this will be convenient for rescuing people.
Zhang Ze breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the people were successfully rescued, and then began to concentrate on fishing because one of the sharks had already taken the bait.
He now saw the appearance of the shark, and it was indeed a bull shark.
The maximum length of male sharks of this type is only three meters, while the maximum length of female sharks is three and a half meters, and the maximum weight is about four hundred and fifty kilograms.
He wasn't sure whether the one in front of him was a female, because its length was most likely over three meters, which was very huge.
That big open mouth feels like it can bite off half of a person’s body with one bite.
But this size and weight are not bad for Zhang Ze.
What kind of physical fitness does he have? He put the fishing rod against his belt and used both arms to lift the rod up. The shark at the bottom of the water was pulled to the surface uncontrollably and struggled frantically, but the next moment it was able to dive back into the water.
Zhang Ze is very strong, but the shark is not bad either. It can hold its own against him for a while after an outburst of force.
But in the end, it was still no match for Zhang Ze because the distance was short. In just twenty minutes, it was forcibly pulled to the side of the boat.
Zhang Ze picked up the javelin and stabbed it directly through the shark's body. The blood immediately dyed the sea red.
Perhaps stimulated by the smell of blood, the two bull sharks that were originally circling nearby actually attacked their companions.
Seeing that scene, Lu Wenbin directly covered his son's eyes.
Soon, it was the second one's turn.
The final result was that he was bitten to death by his own companion, which was much better than the first one who only had his head left.
The last one is also the biggest.
When Zhang Ze was fishing for it, the two sides argued for a long time, so Jin Sanbao and the others simply sent the person back first.
This bull shark is nearly four meters long and may weigh nearly six hundred pounds. The power it unleashes is almost the sum of the previous two.
If Zhang Ze had not dealt with these three bull sharks, who knows how many people would have died at the hands of the sharks.
It took more than two hours, and the fishing boat was surrounded by fishermen from the village who were watching and joining in the fun.
When they saw the shark emerge from the water, they all gasped.
With such a big shark in the waters, some fishermen's boats are only five or six meters long. Wouldn't it be easy to overturn them? Zhang Ze had no intention of killing the shark and releasing it back into the sea. Because of the danger, he planned to bring it back to the village to popularize it to everyone. In summer, you should not go swimming in the river or the sea.
They pulled the shark to the side of the boat, stabbed the shark directly into its throat with a dart, and then quickly hoisted it up with a crane.
"Brother Bin, bring the children into the cabin, and help me get the black cloth out of the warehouse. The shark looks too scary, I'll cover it first."
This was of course an excuse Zhang Ze made up. He knew that this shark must be a king-level one, and he was only three thousand experience points short of upgrading his space, so he planned to cover it with a black cloth, put it into the space and release it immediately while the shark still had its last breath.
In less than a second, the covering cloth had no time to be pressed down.
Lu Wenbin was very cooperative this time. He brought his eldest son into the cabin and took out the black cloth.
The shark was dripping with blood, and its gums were protruding and its mouth was full of sharp teeth, which looked very hideous. It was definitely not suitable for children to see, so as to avoid giving them nightmares.
The shark was hoisted up and placed on the deck. Lu Wenbin was frightened when he walked out of the cabin. He was so scared that he didn't dare to get close.
Zhang Ze took the big black cloth from his hand and asked him to help cover the shark in the direction of the tail.
After covering it, he came to the side, reached in and touched the shark's body, and his heart moved.
The black cloth was about to be crushed down without support, but the next moment the supporting object suddenly returned.
[Successfully caught a bull shark, weighing 432 catties, experience (fish king) +5000. ]
With enough experience points, Zhang Ze was upgraded immediately.
【Fishing Space (Maximum Level)】
[Experience: 0/0]
[Function: Magical bait, growth, harmful substance conversion, special breeding pool, life essence]
【Space size: 1000 cubic meters】
【Fishing Experience: 2024】
Life Essence: Experience points can be used to refine the life energy of any aquatic creature to form life essence. (Not limited to aquatic creatures caught by the host)
Life essence can replenish the vitality of the person who takes it, and has the effect of enhancing immunity and restoring body functions. (Note: It cannot directly extend lifespan)
"Hiss~" Zhang Ze took a breath when he saw the last function. If people knew about this thing, it would be fatal!
But the next moment, his heart suddenly moved.
Maybe I can start a health care product company in the future?
We still need to know the specific effects of this life essence. By then, we may dilute the effects to a very low level and make it into health products to sell.
There is no need to see obvious effects after taking it, and the benefits can only be felt after long-term use?
This new function is as powerful as ever, but it’s a pity that the fishing space has reached the maximum level, which Zhang Ze did not expect.
Although he felt regretful, he quickly adjusted his mindset.
The five main functions are enough. Since the fishing space cannot give you immortality, no matter how many other functions you have, they are just icing on the cake.
For Zhang Ze, who is destined to be wealthy for life, even if the fishing space has new functions, it has become dispensable. (End of this chapter)
