Chapter 1960 - 515: The Great Escape to Victory
"No need, I’ll choose a few pieces I like to keep."
Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.
"That’s how it should be. I think you should keep the paintings, and we’ll just sell the gold, gems, and bonds."
Kaka said.
"Let’s talk about that later."
Huang Kaiwen shook his head and said, "We’ve found the treasure, but now we’ll face even more challenges."
Seeing that Young Master hadn’t come back to his senses, Huang Kaiwen asked, "Chris, what’s wrong?"
"Uncle Kevin, should I not have taken so much money?"
Young Master said somewhat embarrassedly.
Although he really wanted a large sum, he felt he hadn’t done much.
Just traveled around enjoying the sights.
Kaka offered some words of comfort: "Don’t think too much, kid. Since you’re allowed to come along, we’re all in it together. Everyone should get their fair share."
"Exactly, don’t overthink it. Once Ricardo’s child is born, just give a gift."
Inzaghi nodded and said.
"Right, let’s not mention this anymore."
Huang Kaiwen said, "We still have quite a few challenges ahead. First, this is a Type VII submarine, not a Type II, so it requires more crew members, so for the return journey, Chris, we won’t need you. We’ll be sailing on the surface, and I can handle it on my own, but radar will be crucial. If we really encounter the Americans, our gains might be taken away."
Huang Kaiwen didn’t think the American military heads at the Suez Canal would show him any courtesy.
That’s over a billion dollars.
If they embezzled even a little, it would be enough to improve their lives after retirement.
Considering how much more items on the U.S. military procurement list in Afghanistan cost, you can imagine their military discipline.
"Kill them?"
Inzaghi asked fiercely.
"Maybe we should throw you into the sea; you can sneak onto their aircraft carrier and take them out, James Bond." Huang Kaiwen teased.
"Then forget it."
Inzaghi said.
"Any other problems?"
Kaka asked.
"Of course."
Huang Kaiwen tapped the submarine’s inner wall and said, "You can see there’s no submarine dock here. I don’t know how the Germans got it ashore, and it’s not easy for us to drive it away."
"What do we need to do?"
Ramos asked.
"Chris, stay in the radar room to learn, and you’ll be responsible for observation when the time comes."
"Ok, Uncle Kevin!"
"Filippo, how’s your body? Did you get hurt when you fell earlier?"
"I’m fine."
Inzaghi said.
"Then you and Ricardo head back to buy diesel; we need a lot, so be cautious when buying."
Huang Kaiwen advised.
"I understand, buy it in batches; best to find a big enough vehicle."
Inzaghi said with a smile.
"Big enough?"
Huang Kaiwen shook his head and said, "The Type VII submarine’s fuel tank capacity is over 60 tons; we need to buy a lot."
"That much!"
Kaka exclaimed.
"That’s hard to find."
Inzaghi said.
"We can also add it barrel by barrel; it’ll just be slower." Kaka suggested.
"Yes, just go buy it first, and remember to be careful."
Huang Kaiwen said, "Sergio and I will check inside the cave to at least find a way for the submarine to leave. If it doesn’t work, we’ll have to call Barbara to gather manpower for transportation."
"Let’s go, Filippo!"
Kaka said anxiously.
He just wanted to take the submarine back to Italy.
Inzaghi left with him.
Ramos looked at Young Master and asked, "Will you be scared staying on the submarine by yourself?"
"I don’t believe in ghosts or anything!"
Young Master said, pouting.
He felt that after this trip, he was already an adult.
Huang Kaiwen nodded and left with Ramos.
The two walked several hundred meters before reaching the end.
Huang Kaiwen searched and checked along the wall.
When he looked down, he saw the explosives left by the Germans.
Afterwards, Ramos followed Huang Kaiwen in another direction, and they walked for a much longer time, but directly exited the cave.
"Is it the Mediterranean?"
Ramos asked.
"Yes, the other end is where the Germans brought the submarine in. They blew up the mountain, stopping the seawater, and the underground river we see is the seawater flowing in through the cracks."
Huang Kaiwen nodded and said.
"What should we do?"
Ramos asked.
"The explosives left by the Germans over there were prepared for departure; the submarine’s position isn’t bad either, so if we blast it open, it should come out on this side."
Huang Kaiwen said.
"Then I’ll go and ignite the explosives when the time comes."
Ramos said.
"No need, I’ll do it."
Huang Kaiwen said, "None of you are faster than me, and no one is better at middle-distance running."
In case of problems.
He still has an [Immunity Card].
"Kevin..."
Ramos was getting anxious.
Huang Kaiwen waved his hand and said, "Don’t worry, it’s fine. If I don’t do it, it might actually fail."
Ramos didn’t say anything.
He knew he wasn’t familiar with these things.
But at the thought of Huang Kaiwen going to ignite explosives from decades ago that might explode prematurely, Ramos’s heart couldn’t calm down.
This was the first time he felt so useless.
"Don’t worry, I’m the luckiest one!"
Huang Kaiwen smiled and patted Ramos’s shoulder, took out two cigars from his bag, handed one to Ramos, and said, "Keep it for when I come back; we’ll celebrate together."
Ramos took the cigar and silently put it into his pocket.
Staring at the calm Mediterranean, he wondered what he was thinking.
