Then the entire treasure chest slowly rose upwards.
Watching the treasure chest in the deep sea slowly moving away from their sight, Qingdong and others felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
At first, they were excited about the gold coins their teacher had mentioned.
But now, they always feel that there is a new movement in their hearts, and that movement is not because of any gold coins.
It was a very simple, unknown feeling of being moved, as if I had grown up again.
The treasure chest was tied securely and did not fall down when it was halfway up.
Soon, five small treasure chests were transported to the ship by Team 9 using the same method.
Only the large size is left.
However, Qingdong and his men were unable to move the large fish, so they could only wrap it around layer by layer, inserting the fishing line into small gaps and barely fixing it.
But even so, it is still difficult to catch it.
In the end, it was Qingdong and a few others who dragged it from below, trying to reduce the force of falling as much as possible, and only then did they manage to transport the treasure chest to the surface of the sea.
It took the combined strength of everyone in Class 9 to get it on board the Class 9.
When the treasure chest was safely placed on the deck, the boys in Class 9 already felt a little exhausted.
This thing is much heavier than they imagined.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that its volume is three times that of other treasure chests, but its weight is at least ten times that.
"What on earth is in here? It's so heavy?"
Sun Hao boarded the ship again, panting and looking at the large treasure chest, with both expectation and confusion in his eyes.
On the side, Niu Pu swallowed and shook his head: "I don't know..."
"The conditions are insufficient to make a guess."
"Could it be gold coins too?" Li Qi guessed.
"That shouldn't be the case. If it were gold coins, the weight difference would be too big." Li Cheng shook his head.
Beside him, Wang Yu frowned and said, "Not necessarily. The texture of gold coins will definitely be different."
"Besides, it would be unreasonable not to put some valuables in such a big treasure chest."
"Of course, the most important thing..."
"We don't know whether there are gold coins in the other treasure chests~"
After saying that, Wang Yu took a look at the other five small treasure chests.
Everyone in Class 9 paused for a moment, then started laughing.
After all that talk, they still didn't open a single one in the end.
"Alright, alright, let's stop talking nonsense and open one first."
After laughing, Wang Bo cheered up and walked to a small treasure chest. He picked up a hammer that he had used before on the deck and smashed it on the rusty lock.
After three clicks, the padlock fell off.
Wang Bo couldn't wait to open the treasure chest, and the people from Class 9 and the drones immediately surrounded him.
What came into view was a pool of sewage, and in this sewage, just as everyone had guessed before, there were some coins lying quietly.
However, the coins did not have the yellow luster they had expected.
Instead, it appears a little dull, and some even have signs of rust.
"Gold will rust these days?"
Awei turned his head with a conflicted look and looked at his teacher, hoping that the other party could give him a reasonable explanation.
As the steward of Class 9, he must be the most concerned about these gold coins in the class.
If nothing unexpected happens, this is all class funds!
But now...
It seems like something unexpected happened.
For a moment, Awei felt a little pain in his heart.
"Tsk, what a fuss..."
Seeing this, Ren Yan rolled his eyes:
"Don't you know that what was called gold in ancient times is actually copper?"
"The smelting technology back then was substandard, so how could you get pure gold?"
"And there are many places where the currency is not even copper, but other metals."
"Rust is normal."
Hearing this, Awei felt disappointed.
The other people in Class 9 were also feeling a bit upset.
Why didn't you say this earlier?!
Sure enough, the four small treasure chests that followed also contained coins, but just as Ren Yan said, there was still no gold.
There's even a shell in it.
This gave everyone in Class Nine a toothache.
After all the hard work, this is what I got?!
It would be better to just let it stay calm!
Then, everyone in Class 9 turned their attention to the largest treasure chest.
But the original expectations have disappeared.
Now that there was something inside, they felt they could remain calm.
It's nothing new, okay?!
However, when the treasure chest was opened, their hearts still skipped a beat.
There was a large pile of indecipherable things lying there, with some rust on it, and...
"stone?"
"What the hell is this?!"
The moment they saw this thing, Class 9 was speechless.
This time, it really isn’t about currency…
