The steamer drifted forward another twenty meters, less than ten meters away from the tiger's mouth, and Fang Buwei successfully buckled the wire rope of the stern pulley and the wire rope connected to the box.

"Woo ......" At this time, the pressure of the steam engine was full, and it was automatically discharging.

The steam wheel's oars were transferred again.

Fang Buwei emerged from the water and glanced left and right, the boat behind him was still far away, and a boat on the left had just overtaken.

Golden opportunity.

Fang Buwei quickly climbed up and climbed up the gangway at the stern.

Fang Buwei quickly ran into the rear cabin, activated the winch at the stern, and shouted to the cockpit: "Turn the rudder to the left twice and turn around!" ”

"Two laps, got it!"

Chen Xinran became more and more comfortable.

The steamer had just passed the tiger's mouth, and Chen Xinran successfully turned the bow of the boat sideways.

She hadn't forgotten to blow her whistle twice to alert the nearby boats.

Seeing a steamer across the river in front, the helmsman on the boat behind scolded: "Damn, how can anyone turn around near the shore?" ”

If the speed is slow, if the speed is fast, there is a high chance that the stern of the ship will hit the embankment.

The stern of the boat was facing the tiger's mouth, and Fang Buwei quickly put on his clothes, ran to the stern, and stared closely at the wire rope on the winch.

The pressure has just been packed, and now is the time for the turbine to reach its fullest.

There are pulleys on the tow hook, and the force of the wire rope under the water is vertically upward, so there is no need to worry about the wire rope exposing the water surface.

But the boat is now on the river, and if the speed of the winch is too fast, it is possible to break the wire rope, and if the speed is too slow, if the box is not pulled down the platform that the Japanese have piled up with stone bricks, the straight wire rope will be close to the water.

If a boat happens to pass through the entrance that crowds the tiger's mouth, it will either overturn the boat coming from behind, or the wire rope will be hung up by the boat behind.

Fortunately, as soon as I saw the U-turn of the near-shore temple of the ship in front, the helmsman behind knew that the person driving the boat in front was definitely a novice, and although he cursed in his mouth, he still reduced his speed and waited patiently.

The speed of the steam wheel slowly increased, the winch tightened more and more, and there was a sudden pause in the middle, the speed slowed down, and even the steam wheel paused slightly.

This is proof that the underwater wire rope has been completely taut and the boat has been strained.

Whether it succeeds or not depends on now.

Fang Buwei stared at the winch tightly.

The soft sound of "collapse" was transmitted from the underwater wire rope to the hull of the ship, and then to Fang Buwei's ears, like the sound of flicking the bowstring with his fingers.

The speed of the winch is slightly faster, but the wire rope that is rolled up is very tightly wound, indicating that the wire rope under the water is not broken.

Although he had demonstrated it countless times in his mind and thought that it was unlikely that something would go wrong, Fang Buwei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The eight boxes had been dragged down the stone platform that the Japanese had built with stone bricks and hung down into the river.

The water depth of the Nanjing River section is more than 40 meters, and the tiger's mouth is even deeper.

The underwater wire rope is only about 40 meters, and now it has been twisted up a lot, indicating that the box has left the bottom of the river and is still rising.

At the current speed of the steam turbine, it is estimated that the wire rope under the water surface is basically vertical.

Fang Buwei ran into the rear cabin while jumping, speeding up the winch.

Two minutes later, the stern of the boat shook slightly, and Fang Buwei quickly reversed and turned off the winch.

Eight boxes were successfully pasted to the stern of the boat.

Fang Buwei shook his fist vigorously.

Even if Fang Fang no longer loves money, no matter how steady he is, he can't help but be excited when he thinks of what the concept of 100,000 taels of gold is.

He went to the stern of the boat again to take a look, and when he was sure that the iron box was not out of the water, he returned to the forward compartment again.

"Something is wrong, you won't answer when I call you!" Chen Xinran asked.

"Something is wrong with the pressure chamber!" Fang Buwei said casually.

"So what now, go back?" Chen Xinran said again.

Now the steam turbine has successfully turned its head and is swimming against the current.

Chen Xinran only thought that there was something wrong with the ship, so he gave up the action.

"It's been caught!" Fang Buwei replied with a smile.

Chen Xinran looked at Fang Buwei in surprise: "When?" ”

"Just now, when you turned around......"

Chen Xinran stared at Fang Buwei tightly, and Fang Buwei said lightly: "It's very simple to give you what you said, you still don't believe it?" ”

……

In order to facilitate the removal of the contents of the box from the ship, Fang Buwei deliberately detoured a little further and parked the boat at the Jiajiang Wharf.

Nanjing now has only two Shenzhen-Hong Kong terminals, one is a coal port and the other is here.

Fang Buwei vaguely remembered that in later generations, this place seemed to be a car ferry.

It is too far away from Xiaguan and far from the city gate, and there is no coal port and Pukou wharf here, and there are three or two boats parked here and there on the huge wharf.

After paying the docking fee, and waiting for the dock steward to leave, Fang Buwei activated the winch and hoisted eight boxes onto the deck.

The eight boxes were intact, and Fang Buwei was secretly relieved.

"So much?" Chen Xinran glanced at Fang Buwei in surprise.

Fang Buwei nodded, and mentioned it one bite after another.

There is no movement that can be done in one mouth.

Don't guess, there are eight chests, and they are all gold.

A real 100,000 taels.

Fang Buwei suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and handed a Mauser submachine pistol to Chen Xinran: "You are watching here, whoever dares to get on the boat, you can shoot with confidence!" ”

He wanted to push the box into the cabin, but he couldn't push it at all.

Each box is at least more than 1,000 catties.

Guessing that Fang Buwei was going to find a place to hide the money, Chen Xinran nodded heavily.

……

Fang Buwei first rented a small warehouse not far from the ship.

After paying the rent, taking the keys, and taking the landlord away, Fang Buwei dug a hole in the warehouse as quickly as possible.

It's not huge, but it's enough to hide the contents of those eight boxes.

After digging the pit and locking the door, Fang Buwei walked around, bought a small suitcase, and returned to the ship again.

Fang Buwei glanced left and right, and saw that there was no one nearby, so he found something and pried open a box.

As soon as the box opened, a dazzling golden light was reflected.

Chen Xinran gasped violently.

She lost her mind for a while, raised her head blankly, looked at the other seven boxes, and then looked at Fang Buwei: "All of them!" ”

Fang Buwei nodded: "Didn't I tell you, at least 100,000 taels!" ”

Chen Xinran was not only not happy, but his face was covered with frost.

What is the concept of 100,000 taels?

Japanese people will absolutely go crazy when they find out.

"It's all in hand, what's the use of being afraid?"

Fang Buwei sneered, opened the wooden box, and quickly put the gold ingots inside.
