    You can search for "Golden Fishing Ground" in Baidu to find the latest chapters!

    The title of the previous chapter was wrong. Sorry, I only found out after publishing it.  In fact, that chapter has nothing to do with marriage, which is embarrassing!  ****

    The Titanic is in a state of decay, with icicle-like rust covering the bow railings and anchors of the sunken ship like a plague.

    Previously, a shipwreck salvage company used acoustic imaging, sonar and 3D camera technologies to study the current situation of the ship and determined that the ship may gradually collapse inland in the next five to ten years.

    Qin Shiou felt that this was not alarmist. He quietly watched this spectacular sunken ship. Since his last visit, this sunken ship had changed again.

    The last time he came to take away the portrait, the foremast of the Titanic was only slightly tilted back, and now it has completely fallen and is leaning on the bridge.

    The most common thing on sunken ships now is icicle-like rust. It is said that the hull of this ship is made of 2,000 steel plates. Each steel plate is 30 feet long, 6 feet wide and 1 inch thick. A total of 3 million rivets are used to connect these steel plates.  .

    But now you can no longer see these things. All you can see is the accumulation of thick rust in layers, giving the ship a sense of dilapidation and decadence.

    In addition, in addition to seawater, there are also various microorganisms that attack sunken ships. They form their own communities around the sunken ship, and the damage to the sunken ship is no less than that of seawater.

    Undersea undercurrents are another culprit that destroys sunken ships. Qin Shiou has read information and found that since people discovered the sunken ship, the sunken ship has moved more than 400 meters in the past 20 years, and is pushed by the undercurrent at a speed of 20 meters per year.

    Qin Shiou gave the Calamari the order from the beginning to dismantle the Titanic from the outside. Rather than letting the most famous sunken ship in history be destroyed by seawater and microorganisms, it would be better to destroy it in his own hands.

    This is the fate of all things. They are successful and destroyed by the Creator.

    It was humans who built the Titanic, and it was humans who ultimately destroyed it.

    The reason why I chose to come to the sunken ship today, apart from Qin Shiou's leisure time, is that the mast of the sunken ship's observation deck has been broken and will soon fall into the sea and be washed away.

    For the shipwreck, this is a historic scene. It was from this lookout more than a hundred years ago that lookout Frederick Fleet saw the most famous iceberg in history.

    The fall of the watchtower caused the surrounding seawater to tremble. Qin Shiou looked at the ship quietly and thought to himself: Goodbye, Titanic.

    A large hole of four to five square meters appeared in the hull. Under the watchtower was the storage room. Qin Shiou directed the squid to enter the sunken ship through the hole and search for useful things inside.

    The Titanic's storeroom was stocked with 34,000 kilograms of fresh pork, 5,000 kilograms of fresh fish, 11,000 kilograms of poultry, 40,000 eggs, 4,500 kilograms of sugar, 40 tons of potatoes, 1 ton of coffee, 1,500 bottles of wine and 20,000  Bottles of beer etc.

    There is no doubt that these things are now destroyed. What Qin Shiou is looking for is porcelain. At that time, there were 12,000 plates, 8,000 forks, 3,000 tea cups and 8,000 wine glasses on the ship.

    As a result, the porcelain was not wrapped tightly. After all, this thing is not afraid of water. At that time, no one thought that the ship would sink to the bottom of the sea, and no one thought that someone would salvage the sunken ship a hundred years later. Therefore, these porcelains were in direct contact with seawater, and had crawled on them.  Full of microorganisms, it has no value at all.

    There is a pile of oak barrels stacked in the corner of the storeroom. Because these barrels were stacked together, they were packed too tightly and did not scatter when the ship sank. Although the position was somewhat skewed, they did not suffer any damage.  .

    Qin Shiou checked and found that the barrel should be filled with beer or wine, but no matter what kind of wine it was, it would definitely be finished after being in the sea for a hundred years, which made him a little disappointed.

    Not all wines become more valuable the longer they are stored. Qin Shiou is someone who plans to make wine after all. He has done some research on this kind of wine and knows that wine generally does not last long.

    In the eyes of wine connoisseurs, wine will go through stages of growth, maturity and aging just like people. They have no shelf life, but a drinking period, and it is best to drink them during this period.  You can drink it if you put it later, but the taste will become worse.

    Drinking wine is for the taste and health. If the wine tastes bad and has no benefits to the body, no one will drink it.

    According to Qin Shiou¡¯s knowledge, the drinking period of general wine is 5 to 10 years. Good wine needs to be stored for 8 to 10 years to have mature charm, so the storage time is longer.

    However, there are also a very small number of particularly excellent wines that have been stored well.Under normal circumstances, it can be stored for decades or even hundreds of years, but this kind of wine is rare. Qin Shiou checked the information at the time and found that the century-old cellared wine that appeared in these years was during the wedding of Prince William of England about ten years ago.

    Poseidon¡¯s consciousness rolled these wine barrels, and the oak barrels immediately turned into pieces upon impact. After a hundred years of invasion, although the wine barrels remained the same, they were actually decayed.

    The barrels were broken, and the liquids mixed into the seawater were of various colors, and some were black. It was unknown what kind of wine was contained in them.

    After sweeping away these oak barrels, Qin Shiou was about to leave, but suddenly he discovered that there were several small barrels in the innermost part of the barrels.

    There are only four of these small buckets, which are only about thirty centimeters high. They look short, plump, cute and cute.  They are different from the surrounding vats. They have a layer of paint on the outside. They are two bright yellow gold paints and two snow-white silver paints. You can tell at a glance that they are quite precious.

    Qin Shiou went over to take a look and felt that the four small wine barrels were unusual. The words chateau-petrus were hollowed out on the barrels, but there were no other signs.

    I found four calamari. They rolled up four small wine barrels and floated them out. They found a flat place on the seabed and put them down. There were also some small boxes and cabinets and other things here. They were all calamari from some time ago.  Possibly valuable things they collected.

    Leaving the storage warehouse, Qin Shiou boarded the first-class cabin. This place was once decorated with fine wooden paneling, high-end furniture and various other high-end decorations. However, after a hundred years of seawater erosion, the first-class cabin became dilapidated.

    There are indeed some gold and silver ornaments on it that have not yet rusted, but they have become mottled because microorganisms can attach and grow on them.

    No matter how small a mosquito is, it still has flesh. Qin Shiou found a group of squids and picked off all the gold and silver jewelry and collected them outside.

    This was probably the last time he came to the Titanic, so Qin Shiou deliberately went to the first-class staircase to take a look.

    The most luxurious part of the ship at this time is located between the first and second funnels. The grand staircase, which was once equipped with oak paneling and gilded railings, extends to the e-deck. The top is a glass dome supported by wrought iron brackets. Regardless of the day  It's still night, as long as there is light, it can shine here.

    Even looking at it now, Qin Shiou can still feel its majesty. After feeling it, he continues to search for the gold and silver jewelry on the grand staircase. If he finds it, he will let the calamari take it out (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.  com
