    The dinner Butler took Qin Shiou to was a snack street, not a high-end restaurant in a big hotel.

    Of course, this is not the same as St. John's, where a street is full of food stalls, but a street made up of exquisite restaurants, with a variety of flavors.

    In the next few days, Qin Shiou and the fishermen ate lunch and dinner on this street, tasting delicious food from all over the world.

    At the Baleen Restaurant, he drank local Miami vanilla juice and ate Asian-style black bean snapper coconut rice.

    In the Pigeon Restaurant, a small restaurant that specializes in Swiss continental cuisine, he tasted Swiss-style lamb chops, Sabina tender steak and orange sauce roasted whole duck.

    When we arrived at the Wishing Restaurant, we tasted dishes that were a mixture of Latin American and tropical flavors. The watermelon, cilantro, sesame shrimp, and charcoal-grilled scallops with smoked shiitake mushrooms and vanilla sauce tasted great. Qin Shiou and the fishermen were very satisfied.

    But the good times are always short-lived. Four days after landing, Billy called: "Qin, you caught something useful, come over and take a look."

    Qin Shiou bid farewell to Butler and took the farewell ship back to the Bermuda waters to see the ¡®useful things¡¯ that Billy said.

    Billy worked vigorously and resolutely. It only took him more than four days to complete the basic salvage of the two sunken ships, and almost all valuable items were salvaged.

    As soon as he got on the salvage ship, the first thing Qin Shiou saw was a large pile of gold and silver coins that the staff were handling.

    Just as he was worried, these gold and silver coins were already rusted to a great extent, and most of them were several pieces glued together.

    Billy came over and hugged Qin Shiou. Qin Shiou handed him the thermos box and said, "It contains our Chinese roast duck. Heat it up and eat it. I guess you haven't been eating well at sea these days."

    Upon hearing this, Billy suddenly smiled and said: "Good man, I love you so much. You don't know what damn things I eat these days! Burgers, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, damn, everything  That¡¯s all, that¡¯s all!¡±

    Opening the thermos box, Billy rolled the roast duck meat directly into the pancake and dipped it in the sauce without heating it.  In addition to roast duck, Qin Shiou also brought delicious food such as Sixi Meatballs and Mexican Grilled Steak, all of which were packed in the snack street and there were still a bunch of them in the refrigerator.

    These things may taste worse if they are frozen and reheated, but they are still much better than burgers and pizza.

    Qin Shiou went to look at the gold and silver coins, turned around and came back, shaking his head and saying, "It seems like these things can't be sold for much."

    Billy's mouth was stuffed with steak and he cursed vaguely: "Damn the United States, the damn Mint, they must be cutting corners! Frank, the copper and iron content in these gold and silver coins definitely exceeds the standard, otherwise they would not be rusted like this.  !¡±

    Qin Shiou asked: "How much can gold and silver coins be sold for?"

    Billy swallowed the steak, thought for a while and said: "Twenty million, right? You have to look at Little Blake's channels. If the channels are good, it is possible to double it to 40 million. If they are all put up for auction, it will only be 20 million."  .¡±

    "Canadian dollar?"

    "Dollar dollars."

    Qin Shiou said in astonishment: "Is it worth so much?"

    Billy laughed. He took Qin Shiou to the captain's cabin and opened a safe. Inside was a stack of neatly arranged gold and silver coins. These coins were well preserved, occasionally a little rusty, but overall they were in good condition.

    "I'm talking about these. They have been in existence for more than two hundred and fifty years, and one of them is worth at least ten thousand US dollars!" Billy said proudly.

    But then, he became unhappy again: "Fuck, if the gold coins recovered are so well protected, then my good buddy, we will gain more than 500 million US dollars this time!"

    "Billy gritted his teeth as he spoke, scolding the Mint in circles for being so evil that it actually used copper and iron to pass off as gold and silver to defraud taxpayers.

    Qin Shiou was satisfied and said: "This is not bad, man, isn't twenty million US dollars enough?"

    Billy laughed and said: "Of course not enough, Qin, of course not enough! God also knows this, so he brought us another good thing. Come, come with me to open your eyes!"

    Qin Shiou thought that the good things Billy said were gold and silver coins, but now it seems that this is not the case.

    The two went to the deck. There was a large box that was five to six meters long and more than two meters wide and high. It was covered by a waterproof tarpaulin. Billy asked someone to open it. Under the tarpaulin was a transparent box, and inside the box was a transparent box.  Wrapped in plastic wrap is a large wooden sculpture.

    The wood carving is completely black, about four meters long, and looks like a thick python, but it looksThe monster has a head like a crocodile, but has ears like a horse, teeth like blades, a sharp horn on its head, rough scales on its body, and a carving like a lion's mane on its chin.

    "What is this?" Qin Shiou asked. He looked like this thing looked different. It was dark and scary, and he couldn't see its value.

    Billy stroked the box excitedly and said: "You won't believe it, man, this is a collision angle! Do you know the collision angle? Oh, of course, I am talking nonsense, you must know this thing, yes,  This is a collision angle, a collision angle five hundred years ago!"

    It can be seen that this thing must be quite valuable. Billy was so excited that he babbled nonsense after seeing it.

    Qin Shiou signaled him to calm down and asked him to talk about what was so great about a collision: "Of course it's amazing! Man, of course it's amazing! Do you know when was the last time this collision appeared? Leonardo da Vinci and Columbus were still alive at that time!"

    Billy patted the box and asked Qin Shiou to look at it in the middle: "Look, what's engraved on it?"

    Qin Shiou took a closer look and saw a line of English letters engraved on the back of the horn: gribshunden.

    "What do you mean?" He really didn't know what this sentence meant in English.

    Billy said: "This is the name of the ship where the collision occurred! Gribshunden, the name of the flagship of the most famous Norwegian King John's maritime fleet in the fifteenth century!"

    "I checked the information and found that there was indeed such a ram on the Gribshunden. It was very famous at the time. The ram was called the 'King's Demon'."

    "However, the ship sank to the bottom of the sea in a fire in 1495. The angle of collision disappeared and everyone thought it had been burned. It was a turbulent era with frequent wars. The ship caught fire in the port. It was a  A natural and man-made disaster, a fire destroyed all the ships in the port, thwarting King John's plan to unify Denmark, Norway and Sweden, and changed the medieval history of Europe!"

    "Now, man, we stand with the witnesses of history! Especially not only did it witness the fire in Denmark, but it also witnessed the rise of the U.S. Navy!"

    Qin Shiou understood this. The collision horn was fished from the pirate flagship Allah's Sword. It was probably obtained by the pirates through unknown means. They installed it on the flagship as a collision horn to scare the enemy. As a result, it now became theirs.  spoils of war.

    "Then how much is it worth?" Qin Shiou was still more concerned about this.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
