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 moment. I will call you back later to confirm this matter."
Half an hour later, Liang En's cell phone rang. After picking up the phone, he once again heard the middle-aged man's voice from the receiver.
"I'm very sorry. We just spent some time verifying your information. After checking the family's information, we can confirm that part of our family's wealth managed by the head of the family did stay in the UK or Ireland."
"To be honest, your call really surprised us. We really can't believe that someone is willing to return those wealth to us."
"Yes, this is indeed a lot of wealth, but this wealth does not belong to me, and of course I will not take it for myself." Now that you have decided to return these dug-out gold jewelry to the owner, then sing for yourself It's natural to sing a high-pitched tone.
"Thank you very much!" After listening to Liang En's words, the middle-aged man thanked him. "By the way, where are you now? We will send people to the location you specified to retrieve these things."
After introducing themselves to each other. The other party asked about Liang En's location. Obviously he also knew that it was obviously inappropriate to ask Liang En to send things over at this time.
"Well, my current location is near Dublin. If you want to come, you can notify me one day in advance and then meet near Dublin's Connolly Station."
"Okay, no problem. We will notify you one day in advance, Mr. Liang."
On the morning of the third day after the phone call, Liang En and a middle-aged man with gray hair sat face to face at a table in a box of a cafe near Connolly Railway Station in Dublin, with a small schoolbag placed on the table.
The small schoolbag contained a dozen engraved gold bars and the two silver boxes filled with jewelry. The middle-aged man took out a magnifying glass and looked at the words on the gold bars carefully.
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 walked in from the door and said something in the ear of the housekeeper named Robuchon.
"Thank you very much for your contribution." After listening to the bodyguard who was sent outside to count the gold bars to report the counting results, Butler Robuchon put down the gold bar in his hand and stood up to formally thank him.
Among the pieces of gold engraved by Jacques de Burian, one has statistics on gold bars and jewelry. So the bodyguard went to count the number of gold bars.
Obviously, this number can match now.
"By the way, because of your contribution to this matter. So 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 before we can pay .”
As he spoke, Butler Robuchon took out an envelope from his pocket, then opened the envelope and took out two pieces of letter paper, and filled in the blank spaces of the letter paper.
A minute later, Butler Robuchon handed the filled-in letter paper to Liang En. At this time, Liang Encai discovered that the contents written on the two pieces of paper were exactly the same, and they were all receipts. What the butler just filled out was to count the amount of all the wealth.
It has to be said that these nobles obviously have much more experience in this area than ordinary people, so the entire receipt was written very perfectly, and it was also marked at the end that Liang En was not given corresponding compensation.
After signing the two receipts, Butler Robuchon left with the gold and jewelry. Although it should be difficult to leave the country with this pile of things, since the other party dares to come, they will naturally have their own methods.
Because the snacks and drinks on the table had already been paid for, and because he would never come to such a high-end coffee shop, Liang En planned to finish his food before leaving.
As a result, just as he was engrossed in eating chocolate muffins, there was a sudden ding-dong sound from his phone. When he took the phone, he found that a new email appeared in his mailbox.
"It's not another advertisement, is it?" Liang En held the muffin in one hand and stuffed it into his mouth. He grabbed the phone with the other hand and unlocked it with his thumb to open the email.
"The Journal of the British Archaeological Society has replied -" After seeing what was written in the email, Liang En immediately sat up straight and checked the email seriously.
The content of the email was also very simple. It stated that his article would be published in the Journal of the British Archaeological Society next month. In addition, it also reminded him to pay attention to receiving royalties.
Clearly, a top magazine like the Journal of the British Archaeological Society has enough money to back it up. Therefore, not only does it not require publishing fees from publishers, but publishing fees will be given to those who publish papers in the journal.
"That's great!" After reading the email carefully, Liang En snapped his fingers excitedly. For him, this paper represented a firm step forward in his academic endeavors.
Because for Liang En now, the most important thing is to see what step his golden finger can take. To achieve this goal, academic status in history and archeology 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 legitimate means to excavate these ruins.
Over the next few days, Liang wrote the next paper at home and emailed it to the Journal of the British Archaeological Association. 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. With the help of Coptic and the content derived in the previous paper, his article proposed that ancient Egyptian 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 previous foreign pharaohs, so we can know that the pronunciation is S.
One of the unknown letters represents the sun, which is pronounced Ra in Coptic.
The other letter appeared in a previous fragment with Greek and ancient Egyptian characters, so it is known that it means birthday. Pronounced Mes in Coptic.
In this case, the whole word is pronounced as Rameses, which is the famous Pharaoh Ramesses. If it means directly, 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 out through letters.
At the end of the article, he made an important point. That is there is an important connection between Coptic and ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics.
At the same time, he also pointed out that the remaining deciphering work is to use Coptic as a blueprint, compare and verify bit by bit, and finally decipher the lost ancient Egyptian writing.
Of course, I would also like to thank the Champollion of this world.
Although due to various mistakes, he did not translate the secrets in ancient Egyptian. However, he carefully organized 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 Enfa took it away. Just when he was relaxed and wondering whether to rest at home for a few days or return directly to London, a phone call changed his plan.
