Chapter 106

Finally, under the introduction of the boss, William found 2 local guides the next day, rented a big boat, took a snowmobile, a metal detector, and food and set off.

After sailing for more than an hour, what William didn't know was that there was also a team of seven people heading for the Sherlock more than ten nautical miles away from him. These people were led by a university professor named Ben Gates. It took me nearly 2 years to find this place under my leadership.

If William knew about Ben Gates, he would have reacted, because the clue of Sherlock left by his family was stolen by William's ancestors from Ben Gates' great grandfather.

The note that said "Sherlock" was kept in the hands of Ben Gates' father, and the Gates family has been searching for King Solomon's treasure for more than two hundred years.

The things in this world are so wonderful, one is the Devon Hill family who has been looking for thousands of years, and the other is the Gates family who has been looking for more than 200 years.

Their descendants all came together because of a note that said Sherlock. Because there were a lot of ice floes on the sea, it took more than 3 hours for William's boat to reach the island.

After the guide drove the snowmobile off the boat, William didn't let anyone follow him. The less people knew about the treasure, the better. Moreover, he had a portal, so he could teleport directly back to Oxford.

A person drives a snowmobile to the coordinates indicated on the computer.

He made an appointment with the guide that the boat would wait for him at this landing point for two days, and if William didn't come back on the morning of the third day, the boat would leave.

It's just that all his thoughts were in vain, because Ben Gates and the others were driving two snowmobiles a few kilometers away from him.

Because it was the first time to drive a snowmobile, William didn't dare to drive very fast. When he arrived at the coordinate point, Ben Gates and the others had already found the specific location of the Sherlock ship. A group of people were working hard with shovels. Snow.

After Ben Gates and others heard the sound of the snowmobile, they all looked at the snowmobile driving towards them in surprise. They never thought that there were still people coming to this ghost place.

William was also very surprised that Ben Gates and his group were here, and even after seeing these people, he immediately thought of killing them directly.

But rationality finally triumphed over madness, and he still didn't know what was in the boat and didn't need to kill each other now.

William parked the snowmobile more than forty meters away from the group of people. This distance from the pistol was not much of a threat. He also had time to lie on the ground and take out the gun to fight back.

After William got out of the car, he mentally scanned the people in front of him, and found that four of the guys in the group had gun holsters hanging from their clothes.

However, this group of people did not show any hostility to William's arrival, which may be the reason why the ship has not been dug out. William walked towards this group of people when he saw that there was no danger.

When William walked in, a guy with glasses exclaimed: "William?? Devon Hill, that's William?? Devon Hill, God, he came here like this"

"Riley, do you know him?" asked a middle-aged man who seemed to be one of the leaders

Riley said strangely: "Of course, Ben, are you living on Mars? This guy has appeared on TV and newspapers every day these days, and few people in America don't know him."

Another leader of the group said: "I also know him, William Devonhill, he is a big celebrity in our England, an English aristocrat, heir to the earl, self-made, with a net worth of more than 3 billion US dollars in more than half a year."

Ben Gates was taken aback when he heard his companion's words, "What is this kind of person doing here, and Ian, you said his name is Devon Hill, Devon of Devon"

Ian nodded and said: "Of course, William Devon Hill was a noble more than 600 years earlier than the Archduke family in Devon, and he has been revived in his hands, and now England does not know William. very few"

"See God, I know who this guy is. He has the same goal as us. He is also here to find treasure." Ben Gates shouted immediately after hearing Ian's answer, "This guy is a liar, His ancestors lied to my ancestors with a clue that he must have come here because of Sherlock."

At this time, William had already walked to a place not many meters away from them. After suddenly seeing the familiar face of a big star in his previous life, William was still a little happy, because he now understands what this so-called treasure is.

But when he heard the big star in his previous life say that his ancestor was a liar, William rolled his eyes and said, "Thomas Gates is a liar and a thief, this treasure is not from your Gates family at all, Thomas Gates is just a liar and a thief. The message was being passed on, and he not only didn’t want to pass it on, but also concealed it, and even thought about swallowing it.”

"You lied, my ancestor was not a liar and a thief. He told the people who should tell the news. Only your Devon Hill family used despicable means to deceive my ancestors." Ben Gates loudly retorted.

"Haha, that's because Thomas Gates knew that the secret couldn't be kept, so he had to tell someone he should have told earlier, but there was a difference of nearly twenty years, Ben, tell me why Thomas was in the twenty-first century. Will you say it after a year?" William said with a smile.

"And Thomas sold the message to my ancestors for £1,000 right after he said it. Can you explain why? Mr. Ben Gates."

Chapter 155 Money is good

William continued: "It's not without reason that your Gates family has been infamous for hundreds of years, Mr. Gates."

William's words left Ben Gates a little speechless. Everyone looked at Ben Gates and hoped that he would refute,

But Ben Gates just bowed his head and said nothing, and Ian, who was in the lead, had to ask William: "Mr Devonhill, can you tell us the reason? Maybe it's useful for finding treasures"

William shook his head gloomily and said, "Hey, because of Thomas Gates' selfishness, in the 20 years he was quietly searching, some of the participants who knew the secret died during those 20 years.

After Thomas Gates wanted to understand that the clues he knew were incomplete and went to those who kept secrets, Sherlock's clues were useless, and this treasure disappeared for hundreds of years.

Ben Gates, you really deserve to be a member of the Gates family, you found it all, but I'm curious how you know Sherlock is a ship"

Ben Gates saw that everyone was looking at him, and he was helpless about the things about his ancestors, and said depressedly: "I found a clue in the letters of Franklin Benjamin and some people, a ship during the Revolutionary War The ship called Sherlock, at Franklin's command,

They left the fleet and headed north for no reason. The last recorded news of them was that they disappeared right after they resupplied in Dutch Harbor in North America,

I guess they must have had an accident while carrying out some secret order. As long as you are familiar with the flow of ocean currents, you can understand that the ship will float in this direction along the current.

I have been flying between Cape Barrow and the National Archives and Libraries of the Americas for the past two years, and finally I found a diary in a library in Cape Barrow, 40 years ago there was an abnormal weather one year, this The snow on the island has melted, and someone has seen a boat,

But the man in the diary said that he never boarded the ship because their tradition did not allow them to disturb the souls of the dead, so he just left the coordinates and never took care of the ship again."

After Ben Gates finished speaking, he smelled William: "So, Devon Hill, how did you find this?"

'That's right, how did this guy William find this? It's not this guy who has been following them all the time! ' The crowd guessed in their hearts.

Of course William wouldn't tell them that it was his grandfather who found the clues, he could only make up, "In fact, not all the people on this ship died. After the captain died, several crew members who didn't know the specific tasks rowed the boat back. When I got to Barrow Point, they left some information and I found it."

This guy Ian asked immediately after hearing it, "What is written on the document? Treasure? Mr. Devonhill"

"Damn treasure, I came here in vain," William cursed inwardly.

William could only shake his head and said: "I don't know, if I knew, I would have come here long ago, you should know what I have done in the past six months, I might as well enter the stock market at that time, and I will definitely earn more than the treasures on this ship. many,

And you don’t think about it, this ship is clearly recorded, Sherlock’s load is only 3 tons, and how much treasure can such a small ship carry except for the crew and food and water, it must be less than 1 ton.”

When everyone heard it, they thought to themselves: "Yes, this ship is definitely not used to transport treasures."

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel disappointed. Even if they could find some antiques, they would definitely not be worth much. Ian scolded a little discouraged after thinking about it: "Damn it, it took two years and millions of pounds. Found such a useless ship, if there is no treasure or clues on board, isn't our effort in vain?"

Ben Gates also understood at this time. If it is really the same as what Ian said, wouldn't his family have to spend the rest of their time amid criticism?

Shaking his head, put down the worries in his head first, and said, "It's useless to think so much now, let's dig the boat out first, maybe there is some treasure on the boat."

At this point, Ian can only nod his head and say to his subordinates: "Dig it, I can only hope to find some antiques on the ship, otherwise I will lose a lot."

After Ian looked at William and the shovel in his hand, William immediately understood that this guy wanted William to dig everything, "Don't even think about it, Ian, you can tell from your accent that you are English, Do you think I will dig with you?" Turning his head to the surrounding Ian's men, he said:

"Any of you want to earn extra money? Help me dig and I'll give you £2,000 an hour, or I'll give you four of £10,000, and you can help me with my tasks." He reached into his pocket and took it from the storage space £10,000 in cash.

Seeing his expectant subordinates, Ian cursed in his heart, 'I hate rich guys.' He couldn't stop his subordinates from earning some extra money that would not affect the overall situation. 10,000 pounds was not much for him, but for his subordinates Not a lot.

Ian nodded helplessly, while William happily threw 10,000 pounds to four people.

Originally, William wanted to go directly, because he already knew what the clues were in this ship. An aquamarine smoke bottle was both a clue and a key, but that thing was completely useless to him.

But since we are here, let’s take a look first. I don’t know if the real world and some vague memories in memory are the same. In order to confirm that there is no accident, William can only get off the boat to see if there is any difference, and he also I wonder if I can let these people go to the scapegoat for him.

The value of this treasure is too great. If he wants to take the treasure without trouble, William has to think about it carefully.

William smiled and said to the bald head who took the 10,000 pounds: "I'll go to sleep, dig it up and call me at the snowmobile. What do you want?"
