A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 352 Salvaging the Sunken Ship 3
Sun Yaotong, the giant grouper, naturally didn't expect to get it for nothing.

He had already decided that once he got back, he would have a carver carve a little monkey out of yellow jade and send it over.

Seeing that Yun Jiao had brought up such a big fish, the others were also envious.

They all went to Sun Yaotong to ask for fishing rods.

However, it was clear that none of them were as lucky as Yun Jiao. Although they caught some fish, they were all small, worthless fish.

Yun Jiao stopped fishing and lay on the clean deck watching the stars.

The next morning, everyone got up and started working again.

After five days of surveying, they finally figured out all the details of the shipwreck.

The next step is to remove the dangerous parts of the sunken ship first.

Yun Jiao lent them the orcas to help them control their direction and speed in the deep sea.

Now, everyone on the ship admires Yun Jiao immensely.

They're really skilled; they can not only get along well with the orcas in Ocean Street, but also command them.

Most importantly, she is a better diver than anyone else.

At first, these adults wanted to compete with each other, but now, they can't compete at all!
Everyone took long ropes and dived into the sunken ship, then, following Tang Lei's instructions, hung the ropes up in different places.

Yun Jiao was also helping out; she was eager to see what was inside the sunken ship.

I wonder if there's any of the fabric she brought back.

After the ropes were all hung up, Tang Lei made a gesture, and everyone dispersed.

Someone went up to inform Sun Yaotong, and soon the crane connected by the rope began to operate.

The sounds were not very clear in the ocean, but as the rubble buried on the shipwreck was pulled, the long-silent ancient wooden ship emitted a dull, decaying sound.

The seawater near the shipwreck visibly became turbid.

It took them several more days just to clear the debris and wood from the sunken ship.

"This is the last bit of today, everyone keep going."

Sun Yaotong poured a bucket of fish into the sea.

The orcas below began to eat happily.

Sun Yaotong would certainly not treat these orcas unfairly for their help.

When they have free time, they go fishing in their boat.

The orcas don't need to hunt for lunch; the food provided by Sun Yaotong is enough to fill them up.

It must be said that Sun Yaotong is a very smart and responsible boss.

It's really tough being at sea for a long time.

Except for Yun Jiao.

Because she spends most of her time in the sea, playing with orcas or other animals.

As the last remaining items from the sunken ship were cleared away, everyone cheered.

On that day, Sun Yaotong himself put on a diving suit and went into the sea to check the situation.

"Jiaojiao, thank you for your orca."

Yun Jiao and he gave each other a high five: "No problem."

What they need to do now is to salvage the contents of the sunken ship.

Sun Yaotong instructed that any broken porcelain shards that could be brought up should be brought up as well.

With a cry of "Wuhu!", Yun Jiao jumped into the sea and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

That speed made everyone envious.

If they had that skill in the sea, they could make money just by finding valuable seafood.

Yun Jiao was the first to arrive at the sunken ship that had already been cleared, and she happily moved among the debris.

The orca swam behind her.

I saw a wooden box, so I picked it up.

Upon seeing the porcelain, I picked it up.

They also picked up the bronze artifacts they saw.

bone……

Huh? It's a human skeleton.

Yun Jiao wasn't scared at all; she picked up the bones and piled them aside.

When Yun Linhai and the others came down, they saw several boxes piled together with porcelain, bronze and other items. Some of the boxes were broken, and gold or silver could be vaguely seen through the cracks.

It's gold!
As for silver, that stuff isn't worth much these days.

Of course, the pile of human bones not far away also has a strong presence.

Even knowing that such a situation might occur, everyone still got goosebumps.

But... we can't just abandon our babies because we're afraid, can we?

So they looked at Yun Jiao with admiration as she ran out carrying the bone.

This girl is amazing!

Then they all moved away from her and went to other places to search for treasure.

Once all the boxes have been taken out, put them aside for now.

But they can't stay in the sea for too long; if they feel unwell, they have to go back to the surface.

We'll continue once we've calmed down.

Yun Jiao had no such concerns at all. Like a diligent little bee, she shuttled among the shipwrecks, taking out anything she thought was useful.

Seeing that she was having too much fun, Yun Linhai went over and patted her to encourage her to go up.

Otherwise, it would arouse too much suspicion.

Yun Jiao said "Oh," and stuffed some small boxes into the net bag for the orca to carry up.

She herself dragged a large suitcase and swam out to sea.

Everyone else who saw it remained calm.

Hehe... They've been completely crushed by this little girl.

"Godfather, look at the big box I brought. I wonder what's inside."

Sun Yaotong quickly called for people to help carry her box up.

And the orcas brought it up as well.

One of the boxes contained heavy gold ingots. The man carrying the box underestimated its weight, and the box tipped over.

The gold ingots, some of which were a bit dull in color, fell out, and everyone stared in disbelief.

This is not just gold; it represents a piece of history and is more valuable than gold alone.

These gold ingots are not shaped like gold coins, but rather narrow in the middle and fan-shaped on both sides, and they are engraved with words.

Sun Yaotong picked it up and studied it for a while.

"These could be gold ingots from the Song Dynasty, and this ship could also be a shipwreck from the Song Dynasty."

The Song Dynasty was a prosperous commercial dynasty and one of the wealthiest dynasties in history.

But this dynasty was incompetent.

The emperor and his ministers were also pursued south by the Jin army and drifted at sea for several months.

This shows that the shipbuilding industry in the Song Dynasty was quite developed.

If this ship was one of the ships that accompanied that emperor, then it would be quite valuable for research.

Not long after Yun Jiao came ashore, she went back into the sea to continue her treasure hunting.

As time went by, various boxes were salvaged.

There are also many porcelain, gold and silver items.

After examining the pieces, Sun Yaotong roughly determined that a portion of them were from the official kilns of the Song Dynasty.

He was incredibly excited.

Porcelain from the official kilns of the Song Dynasty is still quite valuable and has great collectible value.

However, compared to the broken porcelain, there were very few intact pieces.

Some of the boxes contained calligraphy and paintings, inkstones, brush washers, and the like.

Probably at sea, these things were carefully wrapped in several layers of oil paper.

But after being submerged in the sea for so many years, those things still broke down, which made Sun Yaotong look regretful.

The literati of the Tang and Song dynasties were very famous, and their calligraphy, paintings, and poems, especially those by famous artists, are of considerable value.

But now, it's so badly damaged that it's completely beyond repair.

Sun Yaotong vaguely saw that some of the characters preserved in a calligraphy copybook looked very much like those of Wang Xizhi.

Although he didn't know if it was true or not, it was enough to break his heart.

I had insomnia last night and didn't fall asleep until around 5 a.m. My head is still a bit foggy. I'll go to bed early tonight and only update one chapter.
