George set the meeting place at a restaurant in New York City.

George said to Zhu Yu while cutting the steak:

"The beef in this restaurant comes from my ranch, so you have to taste it. The beef from my ranch is very good!"

Zhu Yu can already use a knife and fork skillfully to eat.

He asked while cutting the beef:

"About this treasure hunt..."

George put a piece of beef into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, and then said with a smile:

"Young people are impatient."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket, put it on the table and pushed it to Zhu Yu:

"The clues are all on this piece of paper. But it must be noted that all the investment in finding the treasure will be borne by you. After the treasure is found, 20% will be given to the provider of the clues."

Zhu Yu nodded.

"Then just sign this." George wiped his mouth with a napkin and took out another piece of paper:

"This is the contract."

Zhu Yu looked at it carefully. There were only two contents on it. The first one was that George provided a treasure clue to Zhu Yu. The second one was that Zhu Yu followed this treasure clue to find the treasure. If he found it, he would give 20% of the clue.

provider.

Zhu Yu didn't feel there was any trap, so he signed it.

George stood up and said:

"Okay, it's over. The rest is up to you, young man, I think you can do it! Come on!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Only then did Zhu Yu have time to look at the clue.

The clue is also very simple, just a few sentences.

A World War II officer named Joseph returned from the battlefield in the Philippines and it was said that he brought back a lot of property.

After Joseph came back, he retired from the army, bought a manor in the suburbs, married a nurse, and later gave birth to two sons.

Eight years later, Joseph died in a car accident. When his family was cleaning things, they found that there were not many belongings at home, and the so-called gold and gems brought back from the Philippines were not found at all.

Then some people analyzed that Joseph was hiding because he had a car accident and did not have time to tell his family.

Not many people know the clues to this treasure, but there are some. First, Joseph's descendants searched the entire farm, but found nothing. Then they entrusted treasure hunters to find it.

Over the past few decades, a total of six treasure hunters have searched for this treasure. Except for one man who found a small box of gold in an abandoned cellar of the manor at the end of the last century, there was no other harvest.

Now the clues have returned to Zhu Yu.

The note also stated that if Zhu Yu found a treasure in the manor, 40% of it would go to Joseph's family - the remaining 60% would be given to George, and Zhu Yu would get the last 40%.

It turns out that he is still waiting for me here!

Zhu Yu was a little dumbfounded.

But thinking about it, it’s not bad.

At least others have provided clues. If you really find the treasure, you can't justify not paying others.

After lunch, Zhu Yu turned back to the port.

According to the information provided by Old John, there are still several containers salvaged from the sea at the port terminal today for auction.

When Zhu Yu arrived at the port with Jason, the auction had already begun.

The auctioneer is introducing the origin of the container:

"These two containers came from the oil-rich countries in the Middle East! Because the ship encountered pirates on the way, the containers were thrown into the sea. After they were fished out, the cargo owner no longer wanted them."

This information has now been made public by the auctioneer, who obviously wants to get more money from the auction.

The auction assistant used pliers to cut the lock and opened the door to reveal the contents.

A fishy sea smell filled the air.

Inside the container, a lot of kelp and other unknown seaweeds were wrapped around several large pieces of furniture.

These pieces of furniture should have been relatively valuable when they were in good condition, but now they are worthless.

Because there were a lot of furniture, which blocked the view inside, everyone used various postures to look inside.

Fortunately, they were all relatively well-behaved. Zhu Yu also pretended to glance at them, and his heart suddenly became excited.

However, on the surface, he pretended to have discovered nothing and took two steps back.

Big Joey came up to him and said loudly:

"Zhu, I heard that the Hispanics are causing trouble for you? You should be careful lately!"

Zhu Yushen was annoyed with this guy, but it was hard to get angry now. He pretended not to care and said:

"It's them who should be careful! Am I afraid of them? As long as they dare to mess with me, I will let them taste the power of Chinese Kung Fu!"

Of course Zhu Yu didn't just say that, others even thought Zhu Yu was right!

Zhu Yu fought against others several times, and either heard or saw with his own eyes that his fighting power was definitely not something ordinary people could withstand.

The auctioneer spoke:

"This container from the Country of Wealth is now open for auction. The base price is five hundred US dollars. Each increase will not be less than one hundred US dollars. The auction is now open. Mr. Madden bids five thousand US dollars. Do you want to increase the price to five thousand US dollars?"

The base price was five hundred, but Old Madden repeated his old trick and directly increased the price by five thousand. Big Joey pushed him hard in anger!

Old Madden remained unmoved at all, staring closely at the container as if he had already pocketed it.

Zhu Yu raised his hand:

"Six thousand dollars!"

Diana raised her hand:

"Six thousand five hundred dollars!"

The three Ralph brothers also raised their hands:

"Eight thousand dollars!"

…

The price soon soared to $11,000, and Madden Lao, Brother Ralph and Zhu Yu were still raising prices.

Old Madden raised his hand again:

"Fifteen thousand dollars!"

Ralph Brothers Markup:

"Sixteen thousand dollars!"

Zhu Yu raised his hand: "Twenty thousand dollars!"

This price immediately scared off both bidders.

Old Madden shrugged:

"There is one more, this one belongs to you. Zhu, you are so courageous!"

Zhu Yu smiled:

"I just think this one looks more pleasing to the eye."

After paying the money, the auctioneer turned to the second container to prepare for the auction.

Some people followed, but a few stayed.

Brother Ralph came over to see Zhu Yu and Jason cleaning the containers.

Zhu Yu was a little confused and asked:

"Aren't you going to take pictures?"

"Shoot." Ralph asked his two brothers to go over and look at the containers over there, while he moved closer to Zhu Yu and whispered:

"Zhu, can we cooperate in the future? I think the container you are interested in must have good things in it!"

Zhu Yu shook his head and said:

"I have other things to do. I won't have much time to auction the containers later. Forget about the cooperation."

Ralph turned around and left with some regret.

After he left, Diana, a busty woman, also came over and bumped Zhu Yu with her shoulder:

"Zhu, what do you think? Let's cooperate? From now on, I fully support you in taking photos of the containers you like, and we will share the good stuff equally!"

what is it today?

Zhu Yu was a little confused, but declined, giving the same excuse to Ralph.
