Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 32 Return



Chapter 32 Return
"Did you say it was 100 years ago?" The originally calm tone of the person opposite suddenly became excited. "Sir, please wait for me for a while, I will call you back to confirm this matter."

Half an hour later, Liang En's cell phone rang.After answering the phone, he heard the voice of the middle-aged man from the receiver again.

"I'm very sorry. We just took a little time to verify your information. After checking the family information, we can confirm that some of the wealth managed by the head of our family did stay in England or Ireland."

"Honestly, your phone call is beyond our expectations. We really can't believe that someone is willing to give us back those treasures."

"Yes, this is indeed a lot of wealth, but these wealth do not belong to me, of course I will not take it for myself." Now that you have decided to return these dug out gold jewels to the owner, then sing for yourself It is natural to sing high-profile.

"Thank you very much!" After hearing Liang En's words, the middle-aged man thanked him. "By the way, where are you now? We will send someone to the location you specified to retrieve these things."

After introducing ourselves to each other.The other party asked about Liang En's location, and obviously he also knew that it was obviously inappropriate for Liang En to send things over at such a time.

"Well, my current location is near Dublin. If you want to come, you can notify one day in advance, and then meet near Dublin Connolly Railway Station."

"Okay, no problem. We will notify you one day in advance, Mr. Liang."

On the morning of the third day after the call, Liang En and a gray-haired middle-aged man sat face to face at a table in a box of a coffee shop near Dublin's Connolly Railway Station, and there was a small schoolbag on the table.

In the small schoolbag were more than a dozen gold bars engraved with words, and the two silver boxes full of jewelry.And this middle-aged man took out a magnifying glass and carefully looked at the words on the gold bars.

A few minutes later, a soft and rhythmic knock on the door broke the silence in the room.Then a young man in a black suit came in from the door, and said something in the ear of the butler named Lubzon.

"Thank you very much for your contribution." After hearing the report from the bodyguard who was sent outside to count the gold bars, Butler Lubzon put down the gold bar in his hand and stood up to thank him formally.

One of these pieces of gold engraved by Jacques de Borian has statistics on gold bars and jewels.So the bodyguard went to count the number of gold bars.

Obviously, this number can be matched now.

"By the way, because of your contribution to this matter, we will also pay corresponding rewards. However, because we have to confirm the value of these items before we can determine the specific number of rewards, it may take a while to pay .”

As he spoke, Butler Lubzon took out an envelope from his pocket, opened the envelope, took out two pieces of letter paper, and filled in the blank space of the letter paper.

One minute later, Butler Lubzon handed the completed letter to Liang En.It was only at this time that Liang En realized that the contents written on the two pieces of letter paper were exactly the same, they were all receipts.And what the butler just filled in was to count the amount of all the wealth.

It has to be said that these nobles obviously have more experience in this area than ordinary people, so the entire receipt is very well written, and it is also marked at the end that they did not give Liang En the corresponding remuneration.

After signing the two receipts, Steward Lubouchon left with the gold and jewels.Although it should be difficult to leave the country with this pile of things, since the other party dared to come, they naturally have their own way.

Because the snacks and drinks on the table had already been paid for, and because he would never come to such a high-grade coffee shop for consumption, Liang En planned to finish his food before leaving.

As a result, when he was burying his head in eating the chocolate muffin, there was a sudden ding-dong sound from his mobile phone. When he took the mobile phone, he found that there was a new email in his mailbox.

"It can't be an advertisement again." Liang En stuffed the muffin into his mouth with one hand, grabbed the phone with the other hand, unlocked it with his thumb, and opened the email.

"The "Journal of the British Archaeological Association" replied—" After seeing what was written in this email, Liang En immediately sat up straight and checked the email seriously.

The content of the email is also very simple, which means that his article will be published in the "Journal of the British Archaeological Association" next month. In addition, it also reminds him to pay attention to receiving manuscript fees.

Obviously, a top journal like the Journal of the British Archaeological Association has sufficient funds to back it up.Therefore, not only does it not need to charge the publisher's site fee, but it will pay the publisher's fee to the person who publishes the paper in the journal.

"Great!" After carefully reading the email, Liang En snapped his fingers excitedly.For him, the paper represented a firm step forward in his scholarship.

Because for Liang En now, the most important thing is to see what step his golden finger can do.To accomplish this goal, academic status in history and archaeology is as important as money.

Otherwise, even if Liang En knew some important monuments, such as the location of Troy, it would be impossible to use proper means to excavate these ruins.

Over the next few days, Liang wrote his next paper at home and emailed it to the Journal of the British Archaeological Society.After all, for him, now is an opportunity to strike while the iron is hot.

The content of the second paper is based on the content of the first one. With the help of Coptic language and the content deduced in the previous paper, his article proposes that the ancient Egyptian language itself has the ability to express meaning.

An example is the name of a pharaoh, who was a native Egyptian pharaoh.In that photo, the last two letters of the name were found in the names of those foreign pharaohs before, so we can know that the pronunciation is S.

One of the two unknown letters represents the sun, pronounced Ra in Coptic.

The other letter appeared in a previous fragment with Greek and ancient Egyptian, so it is known to mean birthday.Coptic pronounces it Mes.

In this case, the pronunciation of the whole word together is Rameses, which is the famous Pharaoh Ramesses.In a direct sense, it means that the sun god was born.

In addition to this example, Liang En also cited several other native pharaoh names as examples to prove that native Egyptian names were also spelled by letters.

At the end of the article, he made an important point.That there is an important connection between Coptic and ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

At the same time, he also pointed out that the remaining deciphering work is to use the Coptic language as a blueprint, compare and verify bit by bit, and finally decipher the lost ancient Egyptian text.

Of course, thanks also to Champollion of this world.

Although due to various mistakes, he did not translate the secrets in ancient Egyptian.But he carefully sorted out the Coptic language and compiled a Coptic dictionary, which laid a solid foundation for Liang En's current work.

After carefully checking the paper several times, Liang En sent the paper away.Just when he was relaxed and pondering whether to rest at home for a few days or return to London directly, a phone call changed his plan.
