While talking, the two boxes that were salvaged from the bottom of the sea had been moved into the cabin.
Ye Tian stepped forward to check the sealing of the boxes, and after confirming that there was no problem, he was ready to open the two boxes.
At this moment, Jason suddenly walked into the cabin, and Ye Tian said:
"Steven, the second group of guys who went to the bottom of the sea to perform exploration operations are all ready. Do you want to go and see?"
Hearing this, Ye Tian nodded immediately and said:
"I'd better go and take a look, so that I can rest assured and save my fears."
Having said that, he got up and walked outside the cabin to check the situation of the exploration team members, experts and scholars, as well as the exploration equipment.
As for David and Yahya, they could only continue to wait in the cabin.
Fortunately, the wait time is not long.
About fifteen minutes later, Ye Tian had returned to the cabin.
At the same time, on the large-screen TV in the cabin, different live broadcasts from the diver's perspective and the submarine's perspective also appeared.
The second group of three divers to explore the sea, as well as the Aurora seven small private submarines, had already begun to dive slowly and dived straight to the depths of the seabed.
Cole and Raymond, who participated in the first deep dive, sat in front of the big-screen TV with underwater walkie-talkies and acted as marine guides.
After entering the cabin, Ye Tian first looked at the live broadcast from the sea.
The picture is very clear, and it gives people an immersive feeling when looking at it.
Immediately afterwards, he warned Cole a few more words.
And tell them that if they find anything abnormal, they must notify themselves at the first time to avoid danger.
After doing these things, he sat down on the sofa.
"Okay, gentlemen, the second round of exploration has begun, and the divers and the submarine, as well as various other exploration equipment, are all right, I hope they can make a surprising discovery.
We can sit here and drink coffee while participating in this underwater exploration action, which is actually not much different from personal exploration. I believe this is a very good experience.
While watching the live broadcast, we can open these two boxes salvaged from the bottom of the sea to see what is in these two boxes. Is it gold and silver treasures or antiques? "
Ye Tian said with a smile, briefly introducing the situation.
Then, he looked at the two sealed boxes.
The two boxes remained the same as when they came out of the water without any change, and the two layers of airtight bags wrapped around them were intact.
Next, Ye Tian began to disassemble the sealed bag outside the first box, and carefully peeled it off layer by layer.
After the two-layer sealed bag was pulled out, what appeared in front of everyone was a poorly made and mottled box with an iron lock hanging outside.
On top of this box, it was originally covered with moss and a thin layer of coral.
But the moss and coral were cleaned up by Cole, revealing the box itself.
As Cole said before, on this case, there is only a common pirate skull and crossbones logo carved on the wooden board on the front of the case.
Apart from that, there are no other words and patterns, bare.
There may have been other texts and patterns on these boxes, but they were scattered by the sea and decomposed by the microorganisms in the ocean.
As for the box itself, it is estimated that it is not old enough, so it has been preserved until now, and it looks basically intact.
The moment they saw this wooden box, everyone's eyes brightened, and they were also full of curiosity and expectation.
Ye Tian checked the appearance of the box, then pointed to the pirate skull mark on the box and said:
"As we all know, this one-skull, two-bones pirate emblem first appeared in the waters of the Caribbean Sea between the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries.
Legend has it that the famous pirate Cotton Jack was the original advocate of the pirate flag. It was from him that the pirate flag became popular, and Cotton Jack was also a famous pirate from England.
Black Baron Roberts is also a famous pirate born in England, and both of them lived in the same era, and their activities ranged from the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.
Based on the analysis of these circumstances and some historical records, it is basically certain that the Black Baron and Cotton Jack knew each other, had a good relationship, and even worked together.
And this pirate emblem, which happens to be the earliest typed by Cotton Jack, is not surprising that it appears here, and it also proves the age of this pirate treasure.”
Hearing this, everyone nodded and had no objection.
Several people who heard these stories for the first time, such as Yahya and Paul who taught them, were amazed.
Ye Tian's breadth of knowledge shocked them once again.
"Wow! I didn't expect that there are many stories hidden behind this pirate logo. I thought it was customary for pirates to use this logo."
Yahya said with emotion.
Next, Ye Tian briefly introduced the story about the pirate flag and the black baron.
With his introduction, the scene was full of amazement.
After the introduction, he picked up the pressure pliers on the side and prepared to open this ancient box.
He first observed the box and made sure that there were no traps or dangers before he started.
"click"
With a crisp sound, the rusty iron lock on the outside of the box has been cut into two pieces.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian reached out and twisted the lock, threw it aside, and slowly opened the top cover of the wooden box.
The next moment, a brilliant golden light flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone who shook them was a little dizzy.
When everyone got used to the change of light and looked inside the box again, they were all stunned for a moment, stunned.
In this ancient box, it is full of various gold and silver utensils, and there are many gold coins at the bottom.
The gold and silverware placed on the upper floor included gold wine glasses, gold crosses, gold plates, etc. There were only a few pieces of silverware, and they were all oxidized and blackened.
On those gold and silver utensils, they are engraved with exquisite ornaments and patterns, and some of them are also engraved with some Spanish and English.
In addition, on those ancient gold and silverware, most of them are inlaid with exquisite gems of various colors, many of which are very large and seem to be of high quality.
It's just that because the age is too old, and it has been soaked in the sea for a long time, those gems have lost their luster and no longer shine.
Afterwards, as long as they are handled professionally, they can still be reborn and once again bloom with dazzling beauty.
And at the bottom of this box, there are a lot of gold coins, the number is as many as several hundred.
It can be distinguished from the shape of those gold coins. Some of them come from Spanish colonies, while others are from England and France. There are various types, but they are not low in value.
After a brief shock, the scene immediately burst into exclamations.
"Wow! It's amazing how much gold, silver and gold coins are in this box!"
"The black baron is worthy of being one of the top ten pirates in the world. The gold and silver treasure in just one box is already so amazing. The value of the entire pirate treasure is estimated to be an astronomical figure."
Just when everyone exclaimed, Ye Tian had picked up a golden wine glass from the box, studied and admired it.
On this gold wine glass, there are some beautiful patterns and patterns engraved on the chisel, as well as an intricate and exquisite badge.
And on the edge of this golden wine glass, there is also a line of swashes in Spanish engraved.
After admiring for a while, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"This golden wine glass comes from Dominica, the former colony of Spain, and from the Dominican Governor's Palace at that time. The name of the Dominican Governor is engraved on the edge of the glass.
The Dominican governor from Spain should be from the famous Habsburg family, and the badge of the Habsburg family outside the wine glass is the best proof.”
At the same time as the introduction, he also pointed out the various patterns, decorations, and words on the golden wine glass one by one.
Everyone also came over and admired this exquisite golden wine glass.
Through his introduction, everyone's understanding of this golden wine glass has also deepened rapidly, and it is no longer ignorant.
After appreciating this golden wine glass, Ye Tian handed it to Ye Haiya for the other party to appreciate.
He himself picked up a golden cross from the box and continued to appreciate and study it.
This is a very beautifully made crucifix. Although it is small in size, it is very heavy. The whole body is made of gold.
On this golden cross, there are also many exquisite ornaments and patterns engraved with strong religious colors.
In addition, this golden cross is also inlaid with several huge emeralds, top rubies and so on.
It's just that these top gems have lost their luster and look dull.
With a little treatment after the fact, when these gems are brought back to life, this exquisite golden cross is sure to become even more dazzling!
On the back of this golden cross, there is also a line of cursive Spanish and a Habsburg family coat of arms.
Seeing these Spanish and badges, Ye Tian couldn't help laughing.
"It seems that the black baron led people to sack the Dominican Governor's Palace. This exquisite golden cross actually came from the Dominican Governor's Palace. I don't know how many things there are from the Dominican Governor's Palace."
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter, and everyone laughed.
In the laughter, Professor Paul has taken over the golden cross and appreciated it.
The next moment, he smiled and said:
"That's true. There is really a Habsburg family crest on this cross. The black baron sacked the treasure ship of the Dominican governor. I just don't know if the governor is on that ship?"
While joking, Ye Tian took out another golden plate from the box, ready to study it.
At this moment, Ye Haiya suddenly asked:
"Steven, how much are these gold and silverware from the Spanish colony worth? For example, this golden wine glass"
With that, he raised the golden wine glass in his hand.
Ye Tian turned to look at him, then smiled and said:
"The exact value of these gold and silverware cannot be estimated for the time being. The main problem lies in the tarnished gemstones. The grade of those gemstones is not easy to determine, so it is difficult to estimate the value of these gold and silverware.
However, one thing is very certain, the value of these gold and silver wares is not low, plus they are antique relics with a history of hundreds of years, and they are so exquisite, the real value must be higher.”
Hearing this, Ye Haiya's face immediately flashed with surprise.
Ye Tian smiled and continued to admire the gold plate in his hand.
The size of this gold plate is not large, it is the same size as an ordinary plate, and there are obvious traces of use. It should be a utility, not a display.
Inside and outside this golden plate, there are also various exquisite ornaments and patterns engraved.
On the outside of the gold plate, there are many gems inlaid, but the gems are relatively small.
This is also a gold vessel from the Spanish colony, and the decorative patterns and words engraved on it are sufficient to illustrate this point.
However, it is not from the Dominican Governor's Palace, but from the Mexican Governor's Palace.
The words and badges engraved on the bottom of the plate give a clear answer.
After confirming this, Ye Tian immediately joked and said:
"It seems that the black baron sacked not only the Spanish governor in Dominican, but also the Spanish governor in Mexico, which is really big.
There is also the possibility that the Dominican governor got something from the Mexican governor, or, conversely, was looted by the black baron."
Following his words, the scene was filled with laughter again.
Next, everyone will continue to appreciate these ancient and exquisite gold and silverware.
After appreciating all these large gold and silver objects and taking them out of the box, Ye Tian took out several gold coins with different shapes and studied them one by one.
Among these gold coins, there are not only Spanish colonial gold coins, but also British and French gold coins, and the varieties are very mixed.
It can be seen that the black quasi-Baron Roberts is cold and unscrupulous~www.novelhall.com~ Any country's ship will be robbed.
No matter what country's ship he encounters, he will swarm up with his men and grab everything.
Because of this, the source of the gold and silver treasures in his pirate treasure is so complicated.
After researching for a while, Ye Tian suddenly let out a loud noise.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up an ancient golden coin and said in surprise:
"I didn't expect that there are late two-column gold coins made by the Cartagena Mint in Colombia. This is too rare!"
Following these words, everyone looked at the small gold coin in his hand.
"Steven, is there anything special about this gold coin?"
Professor Kane asked curiously.
Ye Tian nodded and then explained:
"The Cartagena Mint of Colombia is one of the mints established by the Spanish colonists in the Latin American colonies.
The Cartagena Mint has minted a lot of coins, but only one batch of gold and silver coins of the later two-column series was minted in 1655. The number is quite rare, and each one is a treasure.
In addition to being rare in number, this gold coin has a remarkable feature, that is, the name of the mint and the name of the gold examiner are engraved on the front of the gold coin, which is unique."
While saying this, Ye Tian also held this valuable gold coin to introduce the characteristics of this antique gold coin and its value.
In the sea outside the Dreadnought, the second group of divers and the small submarine had already descended to the bottom of the sea and started exploration.
Under the guidance of Cole and the others, the divers quickly found the markings that had been left on the seabed.
Then, they continued to explore using that marker as a starting point.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

The value of the entire pirate treasure is estimated to be an astronomical figure."Just when everyone exclaimed, Ye Tian had picked up a golden wine glass from the box, studied and admired it.On this gold wine glass, there are some beautiful patterns and patterns engraved on the chisel, as well as an intricate and exquisite badge.And on the edge of this golden wine glass, there is also a line of swashes in Spanish engraved.After admiring for a while, Ye Tian smiled and said:"This golden wine glass comes from Dominica, the former colony of Spain, and from the Dominican Governor's Palace at that time. The name of the Dominican Governor is engraved on the edge of the glass.The Dominican governor from Spain should be from the famous Habsburg family, and the badge of the Habsburg family outside the wine glass is the best proof.At the same time as the introduction, he also pointed out the various patterns, decorations, and words on the golden wine glass one by one.Everyone also came over and admired this exquisite golden wine glass.Through his introduction, everyone's understanding of this golden wine glass has also deepened rapidly, and it is no longer ignorant.After appreciating this golden wine glass, Ye Tian handed it to Ye Haiya for the other party to appreciate.He himself picked up a golden cross from the box and continued to appreciate and study it.This is a very beautifully made crucifix. Although it is small in size, it is very heavy. The whole body is made of gold.On this golden cross, there are also many exquisite ornaments and patterns engraved with strong religious colors.In addition, this golden cross is also inlaid with several huge emeralds, top rubies and so on.It's just that these top gems have lost their luster and look dull.With a little treatment after the fact, when these gems are brought back to life, this exquisite golden cross is sure to become even more dazzling!On the back of this golden cross, there is also a line of cursive Spanish and a Habsburg family coat of arms.Seeing these Spanish and badges, Ye Tian couldn't help laughing."It seems that the black baron led people to sack the Dominican Governor's Palace. This exquisite golden cross actually came from the Dominican Governor's Palace. I don't know how many things there are from the Dominican Governor's Palace.""Hahaha"There was a burst of laughter, and everyone laughed.In the laughter, Professor Paul has taken over the golden cross and appreciated it.The next moment, he smiled and said:"That's true. There is really a Habsburg family crest on this cross. The black baron sacked the treasure ship of the Dominican governor. I just don't know if the governor is on that ship?"While joking, Ye Tian took out another golden plate from the box, ready to study it.At this moment, Ye Haiya suddenly asked:"Steven, how much are these gold and silverware from the Spanish colony worth? For example, this golden wine glass"With that, he raised the golden wine glass in his hand.Ye Tian turned to look at him, then smiled and said:"The exact value of these gold and silverware cannot be estimated for the time being. The main problem lies in the tarnished gemstones. The grade of those gemstones is not easy to determine, so it is difficult to estimate the value of these gold and silverware.However, one thing is very certain, the value of these gold and silver wares is not low, plus they are antique relics with a history of hundreds of years, and they are so exquisite, the real value must be higher.Hearing this, Ye Haiya's face immediately flashed with surprise.Ye Tian smiled and continued to admire the gold plate in his hand.The size of this gold plate is not large, it is the same size as an ordinary plate, and there are obvious traces of use. It should be a utility, not a display.Inside and outside this golden plate, there are also various exquisite ornaments and patterns engraved.On the outside of the gold plate, there are many gems inlaid, but the gems are relatively small.This is also a gold vessel from the Spanish colony, and the decorative patterns and words engraved on it are sufficient to illustrate this point.However, it is not from the Dominican Governor's Palace, but from the Mexican Governor's Palace.The words and badges engraved on the bottom of the plate give a clear answer.After confirming this, Ye Tian immediately joked and said:"It seems that the black baron sacked not only the Spanish governor in Dominican, but also the Spanish governor in Mexico, which is really big.There is also the possibility that the Dominican governor got something from the Mexican governor, or, conversely, was looted by the black baron."Following his words, the scene was filled with laughter again.Next, everyone will continue to appreciate these ancient and exquisite gold and silverware.After appreciating all these large gold and silver objects and taking them out of the box, Ye Tian took out several gold coins with different shapes and studied them one by one.Among these gold coins, there are not only Spanish colonial gold coins, but also British and French gold coins, and the varieties are very mixed.It can be seen that the black quasi-Baron Roberts is cold and unscrupulous~www.novelhall.com~ Any country's ship will be robbed.No matter what country's ship he encounters, he will swarm up with his men and grab everything.Because of this, the source of the gold and silver treasures in his pirate treasure is so complicated.After researching for a while, Ye Tian suddenly let out a loud noise.Immediately afterwards, he picked up an ancient golden coin and said in surprise:"I didn't expect that there are late two-column gold coins made by the Cartagena Mint in Colombia. This is too rare!"Following these words, everyone looked at the small gold coin in his hand."Steven, is there anything special about this gold coin?"Professor Kane asked curiously.Ye Tian nodded and then explained:"The Cartagena Mint of Colombia is one of the mints established by the Spanish colonists in the Latin American colonies.The Cartagena Mint has minted a lot of coins, but only one batch of gold and silver coins of the later two-column series was minted in 1655. The number is quite rare, and each one is a treasure.In addition to being rare in number, this gold coin has a remarkable feature, that is, the name of the mint and the name of the gold examiner are engraved on the front of the gold coin, which is unique."While saying this, Ye Tian also held this valuable gold coin to introduce the characteristics of this antique gold coin and its value.In the sea outside the Dreadnought, the second group of divers and the small submarine had already descended to the bottom of the sea and started exploration.Under the guidance of Cole and the others, the divers quickly found the markings that had been left on the seabed.Then, they continued to explore using that marker as a starting point.
