Eighty "One cannon blast, ten thousand taels of gold"

For more than half a month, the comrades of the engineering team and the seaman team spent day and night at sea, fully experiencing the fun of treasure hunting in the sea.

Captain Andrew and his men have always maintained a high degree of interest in this big ship. Like the famous French emperor in the future, they could not figure out why such a large piece of steel could float on the water and not sink. But because Jack and

Julie doesn't come on the ship often, so communication between the two parties is difficult. No matter how many questions he has, they can't be answered here.

Moreover, Wang Haiyang, who was in charge of the ship's security, was always wary of these foreigners and always prohibited them from getting off the engine room. These foreigners could not see the machines, and of course they could not understand where the ship's power came from.

Huang Xiaodong is quite friendly to these people, because they are very diligent - they take the initiative to scrub the deck, railings, and gangways whenever they have free time. Over the past ten days, the somewhat shabby Qionghai has been completely cleaned up.

It's clean, and the cables and anchor chains are neatly coiled around. In this regard, modern people are far inferior to those old sailors.

In the spirit of diligence and frugality, everyone fished out everything they could touch, and eventually even the wreckage of two Dutch ships were dragged to the shore. Anyway, the Qionghai's engine power was sufficient and its tonnage was large enough.

, the two Dutch ships were only a few hundred tons, and had been broken into two or three pieces. They were hoisted with floating buckets and dragged on the stern of the ship, and they were easily dragged ashore.

They are all excellent woods, and among them there is actually mahogany, a specialty of Southeast Asia. The Dutch who occupied Indonesia were so extravagant that they even had land and materials for repairing ships. But it can be seen that in this era of Jakarta. The so-called "Badawi"

There is still plenty of redwood in that area.

"It's good for hitting furniture..."

When dismantling these sunken shipwrecks, more than one person said this - that is authentic Indonesian mahogany furniture, made from a single piece of wood, which is different from the pieces in modern furniture stores that are pieced together with small pieces of wood.

What attracts more attention than the wood are the more than 20 bronze cannons salvaged from the seabed. Although in the eyes of modern people, such cannons have long been outmoded. But in the minds of the Ming Dynasty people, this was a real thing.

An unstoppable killer.

The famous battle of Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Mingji and Liao Dynasties - the Battle of Ningyuan. The "red cannons" claimed to have injured and killed Nurhachi, the founder of the Qing Dynasty, were actually just a British cruiser that the Portuguese ran aground outside Macau Harbor.

It's just an 18-pound naval gun removed from the gun.

This kind of second-hand goods actually later gave Emperor Tianqi a title as a general. During this period, there were only two places in the entire Ming Dynasty equipped with this kind of weapons - there were twenty gates in Beijing and ten gates in Ningyuan outside the pass.

However, right now, outside the small Lingao County on Hainan Island, four 18-pound bronze cannons of the same specifications were casually thrown on the beach. They were the bow cannons of two Flute ships, and there were also some nine-pound side guns.

broadsides and twelve-pound stern guns, as well as many thick and heavy arquebuses.

These things aroused great interest among the local people. Many locals came to watch the excitement every day. Later, Pang Yu and the others simply packed up a shed. They set up all these guns and cannons, along with the salvaged East India Company flag.

, an exhibition hall was set up on the uniforms of Dutch soldiers - no admission fee, free to visit.

In the eyes of the locals, these short-haired soldiers who resisted the officers and soldiers were certainly treasonous. It was quite satisfying to deal with the red-haired people. Even the county magistrate Cheng Yegao, regardless of his "sickness", came several times to see these trophies and even talked to Master Li.

He was muttering about how to write a document and send it to the capital - he now thought about it. It didn't matter to him how it looked over there. As long as he sat in the lobby of the county government all day long, Lingao County would still be Ming Dynasty.

The jurisdiction of the dynasty.

"When the cannon goes off, there is a thousand taels of gold - there is some truth to this, ha!"

Looking through the newly compiled list of salvaged items, even a normally calm engineer like Xu Hui couldn't help but smile a little.

Ten days of salvage work can be regarded as a great harvest. In addition to the wood and ordnance mentioned earlier, they also obtained a large number of navigation equipment and equipment, including hundreds of square meters of canvas alone. As well as a large number of cables, barrels, metal spare parts, etc.,

There was no room for them in the warehouse, so the engineering team had to urgently build several greenhouses near the beach to temporarily store these materials.

In addition, two small and exquisite wooden boxes were placed in front of everyone separately. They were found from the captain's cabins of two Dutch ships - there were no bank safes in this era, and every captain carried his adventure savings with him. Andrew

He and the veteran sailors under him all knew what this "captain's suitcase" meant, so they fished out these two suitcases as soon as they got out of the water, and then handed them over to the travelers honestly.

"Guess what's inside?"

Jie Xi asked everyone with a smile, but he did not expect anyone to answer. Instead, he picked up an ax and chopped off the lock of the box, and then opened the lid of the box. Immediately, everyone present let out an exclamation.

——Gold! The inside of the box is filled with gold.

Most of them are various gold coins, such as the British Royal Rose, the French Louis Gold, the Spanish Pistol, the Dutch Ducat... etc. Most modern people do not recognize these coins, but they only need to know:

These are cast in gold, that's enough.

In addition, there are some gold ornaments, many of which are obviously Chinese-style gold ornaments, and there are even faint blood stains on them. It is unknown how many crimes the sea coachmen have done for this gold.

But it doesn't matter now. The wealth has finally returned to the arms of the Chinese people - well, at least the representatives of the Chinese people.

"Get rich, get rich!"

The young man Ye Mengyan was so excited that he could see nothing but gold. He stretched out his hand towards the box of gold as if no one else was watching, but the pair of claws were immediately opened by Jie Xi's slap.

"What are you doing!"

"Well……"

Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, and then said timidly:

"Let's divide the gold, everyone has a share... I should also have a share of the land, right?"

"Then what? Do you expect to take the gold and go home to marry a wife, or do you hope to buy a piece of land somewhere in the Ming Dynasty and become a rich man?"

Ling Ning said with a sarcastic smile, and seeing the mocking eyes of others, Ye Mengyan then remembered: In the current situation, even if there is gold, there is nowhere to spend it.

Seeing Xiaoye retreating in depression, Pang Yu and Professor Li behind him discussed softly for a few words, and then stood up:

"You don't have to be depressed. This gold does belong to all of us, and we can't use it for the time being. But sooner or later, our current primitive state of corruption will be broken, and everyone will have their own private property."

Property. When the time comes, this batch of gold, together with other spoils of war, will be distributed to everyone - equally. "

——As soon as these two boxes were delivered, you could tell what was inside just by weighing the weights. For this reason, all members of the staff group, Professor Li, Tang Jian and others held a special meeting, and everyone focused on discussing the issue of future profit distribution.

Until now, their group is like a company that has gone through the initial difficult period and is gradually making profits. The issue of profit distribution has always been the top priority in handling relationships within a group. If this aspect cannot be handled,

Well, no matter how strong and excellent a team is, it will definitely fall apart.

For the staff group and other insightful people in this group, getting this gold may not be a good thing. This gold is too dazzling and dazzling, and all the interests are exposed at once. And Joan

Since arriving in the Ming Dynasty, as Pang Yu said, the members on the Haihao are still in a relatively "primitive" stage. In addition to the personal belongings carried by each person before traveling through time, which are clearly at their own disposal,

Other seized materials or public means of production are still collectively owned.

Strictly speaking, the ship "Qionghai 207" itself belongs to Huang Xiaodong - his father is the captain and the contractor of the ship; and Wang Jiaojiao is supposed to be the owner of the Hummer - if she inherits her boyfriend's "inheritance"

"In addition, there are also Wu Nanhai's plant seeds, Wang Ruobin's firearms workshop, and the generator sets carried by Lin Hanlong and others... all of these have been communist.

Therefore, if we really want to talk about distribution, then the usual distribution according to work and capital in modern society is definitely not feasible - if these things are considered fixed assets, then how should other people's history and professional knowledge be counted? In this

Not everyone in the group may be equally important, but most people have their irreplaceable importance.

"A good distribution system must be truly accepted by everyone; it must be able to inspire everyone's enthusiasm and encourage everyone to work harder for benefits instead of the other way around; it must make our collective more united and friendly, not the other way around.
