After we passed through all the trapdoors, Djembu led us to the site piled up with many gold pieces and some other treasures. Some people were working there to melt the gold pieces and shape them into gold coins of different sizes. Djembu introduced us to the workers and explained our purpose to them who then agreed to help us to deliver the gold coins out of the island and donate to the poor. However, the delivery could only be done boat-by-boat, and be accompanied by Djembu so as to pass the guardian of the sea dinosaur. After five years of charity work, Captain Zheng nominated me to be the new captain as he had to retire. I took up the role and partnered with Djembu to continue our secret charity mission of giving gold coins to the poor, with the cooperation between our crew and the African workers on the secret island.
