Chapter 84: Over 2,100 Tons Of Gold
Speaking of super treasures!
It's not just one, but a whole area.
In terms of time, it can be traced back to the Age of Exploration, when several small countries in Europe colonized large shipping routes. The most well-known among them is probably the East India Company.
This company, in its heyday, colonized countless countries and how large its territory was. After colonization, how many precious products were taken out from countless countries?
Among them, silver and gold were absolutely hard currencies in that era.
Plunder, then transport away, the sea is unpredictable, how dangerous, how many gold transport ships were swallowed by the sea, and thus the gold ships sank in the deep sea?
Those gold transport shipwrecks are undoubtedly super treasures!
"The depth that could be scanned and detected before was so small, and now it has reached 1,880 meters, which is relatively deep. Although there are deep seas with a depth of five or six kilometers, there are also deep seas with a depth of more than one thousand meters."
Zhang Heng didn't know whether he was mumbling to himself or to Smart No. 1, the former was more: "That is, the mining ship can't take off now. If it can, there is no need to search in the vast Pacific Ocean, just fly directly to Baikal~ How cool it is in the lake."
Lake Baikal, a very deep freshwater lake, is more than 1,600 meters deep.
What makes it well known to the world is that this freshwater lake is known to have more than 2,100 tons of gold sunk in it, one batch is 500 tons, and the other batch is 1,600 tons. These two batches are recorded.
There are no records, and I don't know how many more there are.
But this freshwater lake is extremely fierce, with complex water patterns and bad climate, otherwise there wouldn't be so many ships sunk in it. In the past 300 years, no one has been able to salvage those treasures, and that's the reason.
Obviously!
No matter how complex the water patterns and geography are, or how bad the climate is, it is not within the consideration of the mining ship. Lake Baikal is not connected to the ocean, it is in the middle of the land, and it is impossible to pass. Otherwise, all the valuable things in it would be his.
"As long as the auxiliary power system is repaired a little better, it will have the ability to float.
Intelligent No. 1 appeared and comforted in a very humane way: "Captain, Lake Baikal cannot be salvaged now anyway, it is only a matter of time before we salvage it, just treat it as a treasure place temporarily stored there.
"You are so smart, where is the temporary treasure hiding place?"
Zhang Heng didn't know whether to cry or laugh, tears were about to squeeze out of his eyes: "But it's true, sooner or later it will be ours, let's put it there for the time being, now... forget it, there's no rush for a few days."
"The armed department, that is, the military, may come these days, I can't go out."
"Next, I authorize you to scan and detect along the route according to the Age of Discovery, especially the route of the East India Company in those days. This mission, while exploring the sunken ship, we must also explore the distribution of minerals and record them at the same time."
Zhang Heng was eager to follow the mining ship to sail immediately, but when he thought about what He Lantian had said before, it was related to the construction of a private airport, he couldn't leave, and he had to keep his phone connected.
"If a sunken ship is detected, will it be salvaged?"
"No, just record it!"
Zhang Heng could have saved himself the trouble by not sailing with the ship and handing it over to Smart No. 1, but he refused: "Salvaging a sunken ship requires a sense of ceremony. How can I, the captain, not be there?"
"Smart No. 1 was silent and had no answer for the captain. It was a sense of ceremony.
"Okay, I'll authorize you again. If you find general metal minerals, you can mine part of them. Under the premise that it does not affect navigation, you can use them for repairs after mining.
Zhang Heng has noticed the changes in Smart No. 1. It is no longer as mechanized as before. Now it has become cunning and like a child. He also needs to appease it. Giving some benefits is the best choice: "Also, where is the carbon steel you asked for last time?"
"At 10:11:33 last night, 2,980 tons of carbon steel have been stored in Warehouse No. 1!"
"Okay!"
Zhang Heng was happy and was ready to end this boarding: "Teleport me back to shore. I am spending money everywhere, and it is a large amount of money. I have to deal with the carbon steel quickly or it will be used as pants."
The first part is the order issued to Smart No. 1, and the rest is all talking to himself.
It is also true!
Not counting the small accounts, there are two big accounts recently. One is the second phase of the project, which has reached 15 billion yuan. The second phase is even more terrifying, with 10 supertankers and 5 natural gas ships, exceeding 30 billion yuan.
So far, China Shipbuilding Group has not given him a formal quotation. It's not that they don't want to quote. I'm afraid China Shipbuilding Group is also holding a meeting for this huge order.
0‧Please give me flowers…………
The order is too big, so what price should be quoted? It's worth holding a meeting to study.
The order was only placed verbally. Will China Shipbuilding Group win in the end? Everything is unknown.
If they can't quote a price that satisfies Zhang Heng, can Zhang Heng find other shipbuilding companies to order?
It's not impossible, it should be said that there is a great possibility.
Zhang Heng's money is not blown by the wind. He is still a super big customer. It's unreasonable not to give him some discounts. Without discounts, it's expensive. You can't be a woman.
Indeed!
China Shipbuilding Group is holding a meeting, a meeting about 15 large ship orders, and it has been held for several days.
.......O
"Comrades, let me say a few words. Originally, I was not in charge of the sales department or the marketing department. I was only in charge of the purchasing department. Therefore, I have only been using my ears and eyes these days, but not my mouth."
Lin Chengwang had always been very Buddhist before. The order came from him, and the credit had already been taken by him. He could not erase his contribution even if he kept silent. However, the meeting in the past few days made it impossible for him to be Buddhist: "I listened for a few days and made a summary. I don't know if it is right or not. There are mainly the following points."
"First, our China Shipbuilding Group is a major customer of Hengyuan Mining Group. We purchased nearly 60,000 tons of carbon from them alone. Now they want big ships. We It is their best choice. "
"The best choice is very artistic, but comrades, this is worth alerting, and we must be alert, and don't reverse the relationship. We are indeed their big customers, but on the contrary, they are our big customers."
"Ultra-high-quality carbon steel with a carbon content of more than 9.1%, not to mention domestic, no company in the world can mass-produce it, only Hengyuan Mining Group
This is a seller's market, not a buyer's market."
"It can be said without hesitation that it is our China Shipbuilding Group that begs others to supply goods, not others who hold the goods and beg us to accept them."
Lin Chengwang has been holding back a lot of anger these days.
There are many people in the Qi Group who cannot recognize the situation, and their thinking still retains a strong historical color. This is undesirable and very dangerous.
