After hearing Ji Yongfu's words, the crew members who had been worried they would not even get a sip of soup—
finally let go of their hanging hearts.
They could accept earning less than the others.
After all, they had started later than everyone else.
But they could not accept
the reality of others eating meat while they did not even get any soup.
Now that Ji Yongfu had given them his assurance,
it seemed their group would not be getting a small haul either.
They did not believe Ji Yongfu would deceive them over something like this.
After all, they had been together for so many years.
They knew each other very well.
If it had been that guy Ma Hua, then maybe.
But Ji Yongfu? Impossible.
Ji Yongfu's return was like a signal.
Soon afterward, Ma Hua, You Zhiyong, Bao Chunyu, and the others emerged from the sea one after another.
Every crew member who returned had a face full of joy and excitement.
How could they not be excited?
Each of the Silver Bricks they had salvaged from the seabed
weighed a full ten kilograms.
At the latest silver price of 81 yuan per gram,
that meant a single Silver Brick was worth as much as 58,000 yuan.
And which one of them had not brought up more than a dozen pieces?
By that calculation, in just half an hour, everyone here had brought back a haul worth at least five or six hundred thousand yuan.
Even if only 20 percent of that belonged to them, they had still earned more than a hundred thousand yuan in half an hour, hadn't they?
What excited them even more was that, based on the silver reserves in that sunken ship below,
each of them should earn at least more
