It has been more than 20 minutes since we surfaced. After taking off the deep diving equipment and washing up, everyone returned to the living room on the main deck of the yacht.
As before, Ye Tian and the others all collapsed on the sofa to recover from the discomfort caused by long-term deep dives and the severe consumption of physical energy.
Eager to go to the depths of the sea, Johnny and the others, who witnessed the sinking of the Malaga Princess with their own eyes, were also slumped on the sofa to recover their physical strength.
Only when their physical strength has almost recovered and their physical discomfort has basically disappeared, can they take a small sightseeing submarine and go to the sea again to see the Malaga Princess that has been sleeping for hundreds of years.
Of course, they can only look at the exterior of the sunken ship and cannot see the dazzling treasures for the time being.
Peter and the others, who were not in the sea, were busy at the stern of the yacht.
Not only did they have to recover the decompression stop and organize the equipment, they also had to inspect the Aurora mini-submarine and put it into the sea to prepare for the subsequent dive!
As soon as everyone sat down on the sofa, Johnny immediately said impatiently:
"Steven, tell us in detail about your exploration of the Malaga Princess, and how you captured the Caribbean reef sharks and man-of-war jellyfish? That must have been very exciting!"
"That's right! Let me tell you quickly, these things are so legendary. I never thought it would happen to me. It's incredible!"
Orlando echoed, beaming with excitement.
Ye Tian shook his head and said with a chuckle:
“Let’s wait until Kenny and the others return to the living room after finishing their work later, and then tell everyone about the process of exploring the sunken ship in detail, so as not to explain the same thing twice, which is unnecessary.
In addition to telling you about the exploration process, I can also show you the video data we shot. I am very sure that you will be completely shocked by those video images! "
"Well! We can only wait until Kenny and the others come back!"
As he spoke, Johnny looked towards the stern of the yacht with very urgent eyes.
At the stern of the ship, Kenny and the others were still busy and it was almost over.
After a pause, Ye Tian continued:
"As for how I conquered the Caribbean reef sharks and man-of-war jellyfish, there is actually nothing to say. It is a natural tacit understanding that is so mysterious that it cannot be described in words!
You can see reef sharks and man-of-war jellyfish in the video, especially the man-of-war jellyfish. When it spreads out all its tentacles, it looks like an overwhelming giant net. The scene is very shocking! "
"Wow! After hearing what you said, we are even more excited! We really want to see those video materials earlier!"
Orlando exclaimed and said excitedly.
The rest of the people were the same, their eyes full of expectation.
After chatting for a while, Ye Tian took two small boxes from the side, placed them in front of the two Hollywood superstars, smiled and said to them:
"Johnny, Orlando, this Caribbean exploration trip is coming to an end. During this period, we all got along very happily. I am very happy to become friends with you!"
"We are the same, Steven. It is a great honor to become good friends with you, to explore shipwreck treasures in the Caribbean, and to have adventures together. This experience is so wonderful that it will be unforgettable forever!"
Johnny smiled and nodded, very sincerely.
Orlando, who was sitting on his left, did the same and echoed a few words.
"Although you are not employees of Intrepid Exploration Company, nor are you from the partner Raytheon Company, so you cannot share the treasure of the Malaga Princess sunken ship, but I will not let you return empty-handed!
Since you are participating in the exploration of sunken treasures, you have to bring something valuable back, so that it makes sense, and also prevents you from going back to Hollywood to show off without any physical evidence! "
Ye Tian said jokingly, with a very relaxed expression.
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter in the living room.
While laughing heartily, everyone looked at the two boxes on the table with curiosity.
Johnny and Orlando, in particular, were staring closely at the two boxes. Their eyes were extremely hot and full of anticipation. They wanted to open the boxes immediately to see what treasures were inside!
“These are eight Spanish royal eight-shaped Escudo gold coins from the 16th century. They were found on an ancient sunken ship in the south. They are a very rare antique gold coin and are worth a lot of money!
I plan to give these gold coins to you to commemorate this Caribbean exploration trip. Four coins per person. You can collect them yourself or send them to the auction house for auction. It’s up to you! "
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, pushing the two boxes in front of Johnny and Orlando respectively.
"Thank you, Steven, this is a very nice gift, very commemorative. Of course we will keep it ourselves and will never send it to auction!"
"Yes! What these treasures represent is an unforgettable experience and of great significance! They will become one of my most important collections!"
As the two Hollywood stars spoke, they opened the box with great interest and began to admire the few gold coins placed inside.
As these rare gold coins revealed their true appearance, a strange sound immediately sounded in the living room.
“Hey! There is such an Escudo gold coin! I have never seen the shape and pattern before, it’s interesting!”
"Yes! I have never seen such antique gold coins. Steven, please explain to everyone the origin of these gold coins and their value!"
Ye Tian chuckled and nodded, and then began to explain to everyone.
“The Escudo is the Spanish monetary unit. Anyone who knows a little bit about Spanish history knows it. I won’t explain it to you here. I believe everyone knows it.
The Spanish Royal Eight-shaped Escudo gold coin in the 16th century, as the name suggests, is an Escudo gold coin issued by the Spanish government in the 16th century.
Unlike other Escudo gold coins, this version of the royal figure-eight-shaped Escudo gold coin has a very low circulation and has a special meaning. It has been passed down to modern times and is extremely rare in existence.
As far as I know, there are only about twenty known Spanish royal eight-shaped Escudo gold coins in the 16th century in the world, and each one is extremely precious.
These figure-eight-shaped Escudo gold coins are basically collected in major museums. The number of them circulating in the antique market is very small. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are rare but not sought after!
Based on the current market conditions for antique coins, the overall value of these eight-shaped Escudo gold coins on the table should be around six million US dollars, or even higher! "
Everyone immediately exclaimed before he finished speaking.
"Oh my god! 6 million US dollars, is it too exaggerated? It's just a few antique gold coins, but it's worth so much! It's incredible!"
“Am I hallucinating? I believe it’s $6,000 or $60,000, but who would have thought that these few gadgets are actually worth $6 million? Are all collectors crazy?”
While exclaiming, everyone's eyes became even more intense when looking at the two boxes. Everyone's eyes were so wide that their eyeballs almost flew out!
Johnny and Orlando were even worse. Both guys were staring at the gold coins in the box in front of them, unwilling to look away for a second.
After a while, everyone woke up from the shock.
Immediately afterwards, Johnny and Orlando closed the box in front of them and pushed it back to Ye Tian, with eyes full of reluctance.
"Steven, this thing is too valuable. We can't take it away. Just take a few ordinary gold coins back. It's just a souvenir. It doesn't need to be so expensive!"
Ye Tian did not take back the two boxes, but chuckled and said:
"Johnny, Orlando, you're welcome, just accept these Escudo gold coins. To me, this is something I picked up for free, with almost no cost.
To tell you the truth, these eight gold coins given to you are not all I found. There are many more at the bottom of the sea. I can salvage them later. I don’t miss these few souvenirs! "
Hearing this, everyone immediately exclaimed again.
“Ah! There are many more under the sea? It’s too exaggerated!”
“I’ll go! I’m really making a lot of money this time! It’s great!”
Amidst the exclamations, Ye Tian nodded affirmatively and then changed the subject.
“OK! Let’s not talk about these rare Escudo gold coins, let’s appreciate Bernini’s sculpture, Poseidon holding a trident!
I prefer this sculpture to the 16th century Spanish royal escudo gold coin. Bernini's small sculptures are so rare. This is definitely a huge surprise! "
As he said that, he got up and walked to Kenny's workbench, took the box containing the sculpture from the table and placed it on the coffee table.
Following his actions, the other guys immediately gathered around, everyone staring at the box on the coffee table with burning eyes!
