After failing the college entrance examination, I relied on fishing to reach the top of my life

After that shameful scene, Jenny locked herself in her room for the entire day.

During this period, Su Mo knocked on the door several times, but she had no intention of coming out, and she didn't even eat lunch. If there wasn't a sound inside, Su Mo even suspected that something had happened to her.

It was not until dusk that Jenny finally walked out of the room with a normal expression, and even took the initiative to come to Su Mo's room.

In the room, Jenny was slowly eating steaming instant noodles. Judging from her expression, she seemed to have lost her memory and completely forgotten what happened before.

So Su Mo spoke: "Are you okay?"

Jenny didn't answer, but started talking about those pontoons.

After Jenny's detailed introduction, Su Mo also learned that this thing was an important device in the recent foreign technology for salvaging sunken ships.

As long as you put them together and inject water, you can use a machine to take them into the sea, connect them to the things to be salvaged, and then use equipment to pump out the water inside. They will immediately generate huge buoyancy and carry them with them. The salvage surfaced together.

Very safe and effective.

At this time, Su Mo finally confirmed his previous guess.

That is, there is another group of people nearby who are working on the idea of ​​sunken ships on the bottom of the sea.

But how do they know?

Su Mo thought at first that someone had leaked the news, but during the day he had conducted a thorough search of the entire ship, but not a single eavesdropping device was found.

And he never told the other crew members about this, so the problem could only lie with Jenny, so Su Mo asked, "Has anyone else seen your notebook?"

Jenny shook her head: "No, in order to keep it confidential, I didn't even make a backup. I even took it with me when I took a bath and slept."

Hearing what she said, Su Mo pondered for a moment, and finally gave up his doubts about Jenny.

Not to mention how much Jenny valued the notebook, if she wanted to find someone else to cooperate in salvaging it, she could have done it long ago. There was no need to wait until now.

"But how did the news get out?"

Su Mo was puzzled.

At this time, Jenny finished eating the noodles and said: "According to the records in the notes, my father speculated that this might be a warship from around 1900. If his guess is correct, it should contain treasures plundered from China."

"1900? Warship?"

Su Mo frowned. He quickly recalled the historical knowledge he had learned in his mind. He was soon surprised and asked with some uncertainty: "Eight Kingdoms?"

Jenny nodded: "My father also detected this ship based on historical data and legends. If, I mean if, other people happened to research this period of history."

"That makes sense."

Su Mo let out a sigh of relief: "You have a good rest, I'll go to the captain's room."

With that said, he left the room without caring about himself.

As soon as he arrived on the deck, Su Mo found that the wind had started to pick up again on the sea, and it started to rain lightly.

"This ghost weather!"

Su Mo cursed secretly, then came to the captain's cabin and ordered the crew member who was driving: "Reduce the speed."

The opponent seemed to be well prepared, so Su Mo couldn't just rush in, so he decided to slow down first and observe the situation first.

Seeing that the ship's speed had slowed down, he didn't intend to go back to his room to sleep, so he found a place in the captain's cabin to close his eyes and rest.

As night fell, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the rain became heavier and heavier.

In a daze, a burst of exclamations from the crew suddenly came from outside.

Su Mo woke up suddenly. He looked at the heavy rain outside the window and frowned. Then he put on his raincoat and walked out of the captain's room.

In the violent storm, several novice crew members were seen clinging to the side of the ship, looking nervously at something into the sea.

Su Mo turned back to the captain's cabin and turned on the searchlight. Then he took a closer look and saw a container drifting with the waves in the rushing waves. The most important thing was that there was a person lying on the container!

At this time, the man who fell into the water also saw the crew members on the crab fishing boat, and immediately seemed to grasp a life-saving straw.

On such a cold day, a normal person would freeze to death quickly if he fell into the water, even if he didn't drown. If he hadn't encountered Su Mo's boat, he would have been doomed.

The man opened his mouth and shouted for help, even using several languages, including Chinese.

But as he shouted, a big wave hit him, and the salty and wet sea water immediately poured into his mouth and nose, choking him and causing him to cough.

Seeing that the man who fell into the water could speak Chinese, Su Mo's crew couldn't sit still.

They immediately tied the rope from the crane to a person's body and prepared to go into the sea to rescue him.

But with such a big storm, it is too dangerous to go into the sea to rescue people!

Seeing this, Su Mo was about to go over and stop him, but when the words came to his lips, he gave up the idea.

His crew members are all veterans. According to the training and ideological education they have received, it is impossible for them to watch innocent people drown. Besides, they are still people who can speak Chinese and may be compatriots.

He is truly the cutest person in the world.

......

After nearly half an hour of rescue, the man who fell into the water was finally rescued onto the boat.

The man's face turned purple from the cold and he was about to faint. So Su Mo decided to let him go into the cabin to rest for a while.

In the cabin, Su Mo pushed a cup of steaming coffee in front of the shivering man who fell into the water.

"Have a cup of hot coffee to warm you up."

The man glanced at Su Mo gratefully, then picked up the coffee and drank it.

When he finally recovered a little, Su Mo asked, "What do you call him?"

"My name is Zhang Wei. Thank you very much for this time."

The drowned man named Zhang Wei spoke in clear Chinese.

Su Mo nodded and continued to ask: "Are you an overseas Chinese?"

Zhang Wei quickly waved his hand: "No, no, I am Chinese."

He was very afraid that Su Mo would ignore him, and then immediately added: "Chinese people don't cheat Chinese people when they go out."

"That's right." Su Mo smiled: "Then your ship had an accident due to wind and waves?"

Hearing Su Mo's words, Zhang Wei quickly replied: "Ah, yes, yes, the wind is really strong. I was worried about something happening to the container on the ship, so I wanted to reinforce it, but it was accidentally blown into the sea. Fortunately, I have you."

Although his expression remained calm when he said these words, he rubbed his hands involuntarily.

Of course, Su Mo noticed this, but he did not continue to ask. Instead, he stood up and said, "Then you can rest here for one night and wait until tomorrow."

As he spoke, he winked at the two crew members on the side and left the cabin.

The two old crew members immediately understood what Su Mo meant, and they immediately sat on the seats nearby. On the surface, they were chatting, but in fact they were monitoring Zhang Wei's every move.

People are separated from each other, and Su Mo will not let a stranger stay on his ship.

And this guy didn't tell the truth at first glance. Even if it was a strong wind, how could it be possible that the containers and people would be blown directly into the sea, and they would be dropped in two batches.

He must be one of those guys who plotted to sink the ship on the bottom of the sea, but he didn't know why he lost such an important material as the buoy.

There must be something wrong with it!
