Super Evolution Base Island

Chapter 265: Two Boxes

In this sea area covered by multi-dimensional anomalous space, many abnormal ocean phenomena have occurred here since ancient times, and even the so-called allusion of the Gate of Longevity once happened here.

Therefore, with these allusions and legends, in ancient times, many adventurers and mysteries came here to explore and investigate, and sank to the bottom of the sea after encountering thunderstorms and mutant creatures, and some passing ships accidentally broke into this dangerous area .

In modern times, due to the frequent naval battles and the advancement of science, the abnormal phenomena that occurred here will naturally attract the attention of the scientific community and conduct scientific investigations, and accidents also occur frequently.

After such an accumulation, it will naturally make this place a shipwreck grave, and no one can salvage it.

But such a problem, for Yu Xiaohu, is not a problem at all.

There are so many sunken ships buried under the seabed in this sea area, and it is almost impossible to explore the strategic rare resources needed by the base island. Only those resources of little value are buried there, but in terms of the situation of antique cultural relics, it is quite rare. A bit of salvage collection value.

Therefore, Yu Xiaohu sent a collection robot to start collecting things that are more valuable compared to the earth in this underwater shipwreck cemetery.

There are sunken ancient merchant ships in the shipwreck cemetery. There are more things like porcelain, but the number of corroded and damaged ships is relatively large.

Yu Xiaohu asked the reconnaissance robot to collect relevant information, and selected some well-preserved and valuable porcelain for the robot to salvage.

After the porcelain was salvaged by the robot and transported to the warehouse of the super submarine, Yu Xiaohu ordered the robot to make some shelves, and he would personally select some porcelain to put on those shelves.

Among these porcelains, most of them are dated from the Song Dynasty when maritime trade was more developed to the Qing Dynasty.

Except porcelain. There are also jade and jade jewelry collected by the robot, but compared with porcelain, the amount of these jade jewelry will be smaller.

In the process of continuous salvage and collection, there are also some bronze wares, silver wares and gold wares that were also collected by robots.

The value of those copper wares is not high in terms of the value of their metal resources, but they are all in different shapes. Ancient handicrafts with different styles, from the perspective of collection, their value is not low, so Yu Xiaohu let the robot collect them for selection.

Pick some valuable copperware and put them on the shelf in the warehouse. Others are damaged, or missing parts, or have been corroded. Yu Xiaohu did not let the robot consume energy points and materials to repair, Instead, it was directly refined as an ordinary metal material resource and thrown into the warehouse for piling up.

Such an approach is for the collectors. It's a treasure trove, and people will definitely be scolded for his behavior of being a prodigal.

But for Yu Xiaohu, there are so many of these antiques collected by the robot, of course he has to pick good ones, ready-made ones.

After all, he owns a super submarine and black technology such as the base island. He will be the real overlord in the entire ocean, which occupies 70% of the world's area. Yu Xiaohu has endless exploration of shipwrecks and underwater treasures, as well as endless collection of various precious resources. He wouldn't value these collections as much as he did at the beginning, after all, if there were too many, there would still be a lot of trouble in handling them.

As for the collected silver and gold wares, Yu Xiaohu did not intend to treat them as antiques.

Although there were quite a few silver ingots and gold nuggets among the silverware and gold, he was not like in the past when Yu Xiaohu encountered someone who arranged a storm and needed a lot of mercury, and the purity of those gold nuggets was not high.

So he just selected a small number of silverware with better appearance and fineness and kept them for the time being. Others are naturally smelted and stored as resources for future use.

It took about two or three days. Except for the dangerous area that was not collected by the robot sent by Yu Xiaohu, most of the surrounding areas of the shipwreck graveyard were briefly searched, and the messy things collected were all gone. It was combed by a robot.

According to the final statistics, there are about 50,000 pieces of porcelain selected from this collection. There are about nine tons of jadeite jewelry in this category.

As for gold and silver, after being smelted and purified by robots, there are about 21 tons of pure silver, and the harvest is still extremely rich.

In particular, about 11 tons of the gold that was looted was directly purified and smelted into pure gold by robots. Yu Xiaohu intends to use it as a currency reserve material for the rapid development of the base island in the future.

What Yu Xiaohu found interesting was that among the things that the robot collected from the sunken ship graves on the seabed, there were actually those old weapons, which were only collected as metal resources.

But most of those old weapons have been severely corroded and damaged, and they can only be smelted and thrown into the warehouse as ordinary resources.

But Yu Xiaohu still left two very special boxes.

These two boxes have excellent anti-corrosion and waterproof performance, and they have remained intact after being soaked in seawater for hundreds of years.

After one of the boxes was opened, there was no seawater leakage in the box, and the layout inside was quite delicate, and some sapphires were also inlaid.

What interested Yu Xiaohu the most was that there were two handmade western muskets in the box.

The gun body of the musket is made of gold, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, the carved patterns and decorations are also very beautiful, and its surface is also inlaid with precious stones, which looks very luxurious and beautiful, and there is no trace of use. This is obviously art. Collection.

According to some texts and logos left on the musket, Yu Xiaohu deliberately asked the robot to search through the Internet. These are two weapons that were gifted by a prince of the Dutch royal family during the strong period of global expansion of the Dutch colonists in the late sixteenth century. A gift from an earl's subordinate.

The other box is made of high-quality precious wood and has a strong oriental cultural color. The box itself has high archaeological and cultural value.

However, one corner of the box was damaged, and it also entered sea water.

When the box was opened, some poems were engraved on the ceiling of the inner shell of the box, and the seawater seeping in from a small corner in the middle of the box did not cause too much corrosive damage to the inside of the box.

In the middle of the box is an oilcloth bag, which is highly resistant to corrosion, and is tightly bound with gold threads, which looks very expensive.

And when Yu Xiaohu took off the gold thread and slowly opened the oilcloth bag, his eyes were immediately attracted by the things presented in the oilcloth bag. (To be continued..)
