Chapter 138 Gold, Gold, So Much Gold



The group of people carried a string of boxes and went upstream along the rope lowered from the boat.

They grabbed the rope with one hand and tugged at it. The man guarding the rope on the boat saw the movement and immediately reported loudly, "Commander, they're coming up!"

Huo Cheng strode over.

"Pull them up with a little force."

"good."

Several people reached out together, grabbed the rope, and pulled upwards.

With someone helping from above, it definitely made things much easier for the person pulling the rope up.

They quickly moved upstream.

It quickly surfaced.

"Commander, we've found it."

The person who surfaced eagerly removed their oxygen mask and spoke loudly to the people on the boat.

His face was full of smiles.

Before Huo Cheng could ask any questions, people started emerging from the water one after another.

Huo Cheng's most worried wife also surfaced behind them.

His anxiety subsided.

"You've worked hard, please get on the boat first."

"Let's get the stuff up there first."

The firefly rang out.

Compared to them, these boxes brought up from the seabed are the most important.

Huo Cheng had no choice but to do as his wife said and bring the box up first.

The box itself was heavy enough, but with the heavy gold inside, it would take one person to lift it in the sea and two people to pull it up from above.

After some effort, the boxes that Yingyue brought out were safely brought onto the deck.

The people in the water are preparing to board the boat.

Yingyue: "Are we going up already? There's still a lot down there!"

She didn't want to go up.

The people on the ship...

The team members in the sea?

"Sister-in-law, there's more inside? This isn't all of it?"

"No, the ship inside is huge, twice the size of our ship. The first floor is full of chests, and the chests are full of gold."

Everyone...

A ship even larger than theirs, its first deck was filled with gold!

How many would that be?

Even Yingyue didn't know.

"I estimate it to be around four or five thousand catties?"

I wonder how much this little bit of gold can sell for.

Everyone...

I was dumbfounded!

Four or five thousand yuan is already a huge sum of money for them.

My sister-in-law actually said that four or five thousand kilograms of gold were found at the bottom of the sea!

Does that mean their military will never have to worry about funding again?

Realizing this, none of the people still in the water wanted to get on the boat.

"Commander, we request to go into the water again and do another salvage operation."

Yingyue nodded in agreement, adding, "This time we need to bring very long ropes. When you dive down to places you can't go, we'll lower the ropes down there, tie the boxes to the ropes, and you can pull them up."

Like grasshoppers tied to a rope, the box full of gold was tied to the rope and pulled up by a relay.

This will save you time.

An hour was enough time for her to empty the boat.

The others had no objections.

Having witnessed their sister-in-law's true abilities, they knew that she was like a fish returning to the sea when she was in the water, and they longed to follow her and bring everything from the seabed to the surface.

But that's just their idea.

The final decision rests with the regimental commander.

The leader is the one who can make decisions.

Yingyue also knew that she had to listen to Huo Cheng on this matter.

So after she finished speaking, she pitifully raised her head and looked at the man standing on the boat.

"Huo City, there are so many treasures inside."

"We can't waste it."

Even if we move them out, and the military can't sell them, keeping them here and looking at them is a wonderful thing!

Yingyue couldn't bear to see so many treasures sink to the bottom of the sea like this.

"Don't you really need to rest?"

Huo Cheng inquired.

Does this mean they've given in?

Yingyue nodded hurriedly.

"No need, no need."

"I'll just carry two more oxygen tanks down with me."

The little girl has become clever; she knows that since she'll be staying underwater for a long time, she should carry two more tanks of oxygen to avoid being noticed.

Huo Cheng nodded.

"good."

"In addition to oxygen, take a gun down with you."

Huo Cheng was also a decisive person. Since they were determined to salvage the sunken ship, they could not give up halfway.

Once the ship was discovered, everything on board was salvaged.

"Take all the ropes off the boat."

Huo Cheng addressed the other soldiers standing nearby.

"yes."

Some people went to find ropes, while others untied the ropes from the boxes, packed them up, and then had Yingyue take them to the seabed.

Huo Cheng told the few people who were soaking in the sea to come up first.

Then he took a roll of rope and personally taught Yingyue how to tie a knot.

"Like this, like this..."

As he spoke, he demonstrated how to tie an incredibly strong knot quickly and efficiently.

Yingyue watched for a while and then learned it.

"Did you remember?"

"Got it!"

"good."

Taking advantage of this time, the team members who went into the sea quickly replenished their food supplies, eating some high-energy foods specifically for their field training.

Huo Cheng also took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, fed it to his wife, and put the rest in her pocket.

After tidying up and replenishing supplies, everyone went back to sea.

Taking advantage of the calm seas and clear skies, they swiftly salvaged the sunken ship from the seabed.
