Chapter 961 Too Short of Money
Liu Yiwen thought for a moment and asked, "How about calling and asking Dad to come back?"
Professor Xie nodded. "Okay, let's get your father back. Right now, we need to develop the economy, and the navy has a huge funding gap. If... are you really willing to give it to me?"
Liu Yiwen scratched his head, "Not all of it is given to the military. Those within the territorial waters originally belong to the country. If we pick them up and make them ours, there will be hidden dangers. We will pick up those outside the territorial waters."
Professor Xie smiled and said, "Okay! As long as you have this intention, that's all!"
Professor Xie called her husband, but the tacit understanding between the couple allowed Liu Zhengtao to hear from his wife's tone that something was happening at home.
So on the afternoon of the next day, Liu Zhengtao brought his guards and returned directly by boat.
"Qingya, what happened at home?" Liu Zhengtao asked hurriedly, "Is it serious?"
Professor Xie handed Liu Zhengtao a cup of stomach-nourishing tea and said, "Please sit down and have a cup of tea first. I'll tell you slowly..."
Liu Zhengtao breathed a sigh of relief. Why not rush? It wasn't a matter of life and death, so there was nothing to worry about.
He was listening while drinking tea, and he choked with shock at what Professor Xie said.
"Treasure? Is there really such a thing?" Liu Zhengtao couldn't believe it. "How much is within our territorial waters?"
Professor Xie took out the booklet and said, "There are 18 locations in total, 12 of which are within our territorial waters, and 6 are on islands in the high seas."
Liu Zhengtao was about to reach out to take it when Professor Xie stopped him and handed him a glove. "This thing is made of paper, and it's been so long. Your hands are sweaty and will damage the paper."
Liu Zhengtao smiled awkwardly, took it, put on gloves, and then flipped through the booklet.
Based on the longitude and latitude marked above, Liu Zhengtao confirmed that as Professor Xie had said, twelve were within the territorial waters and six were on the high seas.
Professor Xie asked, "Do you want it?"
Liu Zhengtao nodded and answered without hesitation, "Yes, of course! Our military budget is always insufficient right now. Building warships is the most expensive, and technological research and development is even more expensive."
Professor Xie took out 12 sheets of photocopied paper and handed them to Liu Zhengtao. "I hope you have good luck and find all the gold bricks!"
Liu Zhengtao smiled and said, "I have to report this to my superiors!"
Professor Xie thought for a moment, then nodded. "I've reported it. Although not all of them can stay in your military region, it's safe for you and you've made a contribution! If you stay here without permission, the hidden dangers are indeed huge. Even if you haven't taken any bribes, you won't be able to explain yourself in the end."
Liu Zhengtao agreed, "However, it would be more convincing if we first found a treasure and then reported it."
"Right!" Professor Xie replied, "Otherwise, if you don't have any evidence, people will make sarcastic remarks and misunderstand you!"
During dinner, Liu Zhengtao praised Liu Meilan, "Meilan is the most attentive person in our family! That private museum was built by Yiwen, and you go there so often but never find anything in the wine jug. Such a good thing would be wasted in your hands!"
Liu Yiwen was at a loss for words when he heard this, and resolutely defended his reputation. "I'm lucky I kept those things safe. I don't have X-ray vision, so how would I know they were hollow? Those foreign gold wine jugs look luxurious, but I don't like them."
"Besides, is our little sister just an ordinary person? I'm not surprised she could find it, but I didn't expect what she found to be so terrifying! That Duke Ross's family is so damn awesome, who would have thought of robbing at sea?"
Liu Zhengtao smiled. "What's so strange about that? They're bandits to begin with! They dare to transport things they've looted from the colonies back home, but they don't dare take things they've looted from fellow colonists back home! If they were discovered, they'd most likely be ganged up on and destroyed! That's one of the reasons they're hiding out!"
Liu Meilan thought for a moment, then asked, "It's not difficult to find and retrieve these treasures now. I'm worried that if we take away the security fees, will it provoke revenge from Duke Ross?"
Hearing this, Liu Zhengtao laughed, "This is our China. Do you really think it's Europe with its clear class divisions? If they behave themselves, it's fine. But if they don't, I'm going to deal with them!"
"Keep it as secret as possible. Sell these things as soon as you get them back! Pay taxes where they should, and distribute dividends to the local State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission when they should. You think you can take them back now that they're in our hands? What are you dreaming of? I've been thinking about taking them back all day long to get what they stole from China!"
Everyone laughed when they heard Liu Zhengtao say this.
Old Master Liu smiled and said, "Look how arrogant you are! We are still far behind those in other countries!"
Liu Zhengtao is undeterred. "Being behind now doesn't mean we'll be behind in the future! If we learn new advanced technologies and overcome the difficulties, we can finally catch up! We can just endure for another 20 years at most, and then we won't have to endure anymore."
Liu Meilan sighed, it turned out that smart people’s judgment of the situation was basically correct.
My mother, Professor Xie, predicted the current state of Europe and the United States 20 to 30 years from the perspective of education and talent development. My father judged the international situation from a military perspective, and both were correct.
They all firmly believe that the road is tortuous, but the future is bright.
Liu Zhengtao took the information away the next day. Before leaving, he asked Liu Meilan to follow him to the nearest island to take out the treasure.
Because it was a fishing ban period, Liu Meilan’s large fishing boat could not sail on the high seas and could only go to the high seas.
So he boarded the warship on Sifang Island and went out to sea with Fu Chen.
Liu Meilan recorded several songs for her child overnight and also videotaped the performance, singing and clapping, laughing and joking.
With these, you can coax your child. After all, it takes at least three days to go back and forth!
This is a big challenge, but Liu Meilan has to go!
Fu Chen asked softly, "Why are you on the warship? Do you need to perform some secret mission?"
Liu Meilan nodded, "Yes!"
Fu Chen thought about it, then his eyes lit up, "Did you find the treasure?"
Liu Meilan was surprised, "You could actually guess it?"
Fu Chen nodded, "It's absolutely impossible that I invited you here just for fishing! That's not it, then it can only be to find clues to the treasure! I need your help to find it, my lucky baby!"
Liu Meilan gently squeezed Fuchen's arm and said, "Hubby, you're so smart! Here's what's going on... so now we have to search for the first island!"
Fu Chen smiled. "That's really good news. I hope this first island can bring us a lot of income!"
Liu Meilan nodded, "Trust your intuition!"
