From the Island Owner to the King

Guangxian County, Sichuan Province, China.

Zhao Sanmu has a Chinese character face, dark complexion and a shaggy beard.

A very ordinary name, a very ordinary face, a very ordinary person.

Zhao Sanmu finished work that day, returned to the rental room, took a cold shower, turned on the computer as usual, and clicked on the military website he often went to.

He used to be a member of the special forces.

Although he retired from the army for several years, his blood is still not cold, and he has always longed for a life of iron and fire in the military.

Now I am working as a security captain in a processing factory, earning 5,000+ yuan a month. My life is dull, my work is boring, and I am very disappointed.

Suddenly, he saw a post that caught his attention.

Caribbean Sea, Tortuga Island Recruiting Guardsmen!

Zhao Sanmu opened the post with curiosity.

Read the post carefully.

With a monthly salary of $3,200, plus subsidies and benefits, one can get more than 20,000 yuan, and he can return to the life of iron and fire in the military that he has always longed for.

At this moment, his heart was moved, and his blood boiled.

According to the contact information on the post, Zhao Sanmu sent an email.

Then I turned off the computer and lay in bed, but I couldn't calm down for a long time.

Thomas John, a retired Israeli military officer.

As the economy has shrunk in recent years, the good old days of military officers moving into comfortable private managers are a thing of the past.

Joining the army at the age of 18 and retiring at the age of 40, apart from his tough fighting skills and marksmanship, he has no life skills to survive.

After living an extremely stressful but powerful life for more than 20 years, retiring to become an ordinary citizen feels extremely lost.

When Thomas John saw the news on the Internet that the Caribbean island of Tortuga was recruiting guardsmen.

I can't wait.

He always thought his life was wonderful in the barracks.

At the same time that the recruitment information was spread on the Internet around the world, at the same time, retired soldiers, civilians and retired members of the special forces from all over the world submitted applications to the published mailboxes.

An office in the Peak Center, New York City, USA.

This is an office rented by Tortuga Island Tours in New York, USA.

More than a dozen employees are busy working.

In another room of the office.

There are five people working here, including the security director, retired US military officer Carter. S. Wesson, as well as psychologists, intelligence experts, etc. Their main job is to screen and review the applications received from all over the world to join the escort every day. Hundreds of emails from the team.

Applicants who do not meet the criteria will be screened first.

Then, by working with intelligence agencies, we excluded people who could not provide a reliable identity record and who had criminal records and who had joined notorious mercenary groups and the military.

at last,

Inform the remaining people to go to Tortuga Island for interview and assessment.

Only 150 people will be reserved in the end.

After signing the contract with the Suzhou-Hangzhou Garden and Ancient Construction Engineering Company and attending the celebration banquet.

Chen Rui returned to the hotel.

It's still early, it's not even seven o'clock, and there just happens to be a laptop in the room.

"Go to the Internet cafe first."

Chen Rui turned on the computer and first logged in to Q/Q.

I haven't been on Q/Q for almost two months.

As soon as I log in to Q/Q, Q/Q's impressive 'ding dong' sounds like a knock on the door.

The horn icon keeps flashing.

Since Chen Rui salvaged the sunken ship "Lucky Star", a treasure of the century, and purchased 78.12 square kilometers of land in the east of Tortuga Island in the Caribbean Sea, he has become a person who has paid great attention to the world in the first half of the year. A front-line star.

Chen Rui's Q/Q number is not a secret, you can find it by searching the Internet casually.

I haven't been on Q/Q for more than two months.

At this point, there are at least a thousand people on the application list for adding Chen Rui Q/Q as a friend.

What is the remark in the application "Please **! Please hug the local tyrant's thigh! Some are cute, some simply want to be Chen Rui's girlfriend, everything.

Chen Rui smiled wryly and ignored adding these friend requests.

Chen Rui clicked on the Q and Q groups.

It is a tourist group, built by Chen Rui himself, and Chen Rui is the group owner.

When Chen Rui travels and hikes around the world, he often posts some beautiful scenery and pictures from all over the world, as well as his trips, local customs and customs, and shares them with netizens in the Q and Q groups.

Liked by netizens.

This group has been very active for a long time.

Most of them are the same as Chen Rui, who also share common hobbies, like traveling, like hiking, and like to walk around and see the beautiful scenery.

Chen Rui clicked on the tour group.

At this time, it is the time period when the Q/Q group is very active.

Chen Rui bubbled for a while, and took the panorama of the underwater picture of the wreck of the 'Lucky Star' taken by the underwater camera, the picture of the ship's warehouse, and the piles of boxes for storing treasures in the storage warehouse. The coins for opening a place are sent to the Q/Q group, and a brief introduction to the picture and the log of finding the sunken ship are attached to share with netizens.

On July 12, the weather was clear and cloudless, and it was a fine day. I was traveling in the Caribbean Sea and drinking in a local tavern, when I overheard the drinker at the next table say a piece of news about the sinking of the ship. A Spanish gold carrier sank in the nearby waters. In fact, this news about the sinking of the Spanish gold carrier in the nearby waters is known to many local people.

On July 13th, I started my search for the wreck. First of all, I searched the Internet for relevant information about the Spanish gold ship and the Spanish fleet transportation routes. At the same time, I went to the local library to search for relevant literature records. Finally, I also asked the local fishermen and residents about the sinking news.

......

On September 15, after more than two months of hard work, I basically locked the approximate location of the wreck of the Spanish gold carrier.

On September 17th, it was a good weather, and the search and exploration of the sunken ship officially began.  …

On January 8, 2015, it was a good day and a very lucky day. I found the Spanish gold ship. At that moment, my heart almost jumped out. What a lucky day, in honor of this lucky day, I named the wreck "Lucky Star".

March 2nd,...
