Splash!
The water's surface suddenly broke open, and Zhang Yuan leaped out from underwater.
He landed steadily on the small boat.
A large chest was conspicuously in his hand.
The wooden chest was wrapped in a copper coating. Due to being submerged for a long time, its surface showed signs of decay, and it was covered with parasites like algae and snails.
Zhang Yuan set down the chest and casually lifted the lid.
Inside, large silver ingots were neatly arranged.
Although the surface of the silver ingots had become blackened by water, it did not diminish their value!
This chest of silver was at least five thousand silver taels.
Zhang Yuan had just salvaged it from a sunken ship at the bottom of the water.
With this chest of silver ingots as his bounty, he returned to Golden Sand Island.
Back at his boathouse, Zhang Yuan handed the silver chest to Wang Wu, saying, "Use it all up, don't worry about spending silver. Once it's gone, I'll go find a few more chests for you."
