Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

The handover ceremony was very simple yet solemn. King's College, Cambridge University, as the recipient, sent its dean and college librarian to attend the ceremony.

In addition, the Cambridge University newspaper also sent reporters to conduct simple interviews. When facing the interview, the Lewis couple seemed a little excited.

After all, this is an interview for a publication from one of the world's top universities, and it is always an honor to be able to leave your mark on this treasure hunt.

However, this is a school newspaper after all, and it tends to focus more on academic-related content, so after briefly interviewing other people, the school newspaper reporter named Mary immediately focused on Liang En.

So under repeated questioning by this reporter, Liang En could only briefly introduce his previous experience of translating ancient Egyptian language, and by the way revealed that he was writing a book summarizing ancient Egyptian language and writing.

After listening to Liang En's clear and concise description of his experience in deciphering ancient Egyptian texts, he also revealed a piece of information. Mary nodded with satisfaction, and then brought the content back to the discovery of Turing's relics.

"Besides translating those ancient Egyptian texts, my most important job is to search for various treasures. This time, after discovering Guanturing's treasure, I contacted the school immediately, hoping that these things can be returned to their original place. Where it should be."

"I am very happy to see the University of Cambridge displaying Turing's treasures of this great scholar in the future, and hope that everyone can think about issues about future technology and certain orientations-"

I have to say that the various mandarin clichés I heard since I was a child in my previous life are indeed very useful, especially when combined with the future direction of mankind and the most popular zzzq in the Western world.

At least after listening to what Liang En said, the reporter Miss Mary felt very satisfied. Compared with other people's messy answers, Liang En's answer could be put directly into the newspaper, saving her a lot of trouble.

After the interview, Liang En and the others came to a small room next to the office. Then the school official in charge of general affairs transferred the money that belonged to Liang En and the others according to the contract to them.

"Mr. Turing's treasure is two standard 500-ounce silver ingots, so according to the prior agreement and today's silver price, you should get 11,000 pounds." When transferring the money, the staff member explained.

"It seems that Turing was at least not short of money back then." After leaving the room, Pierce raised his eyebrows and whispered. "In those days, anyone who could own 1,000 ounces of silver wealth was definitely not poor."

"That's for sure. Three members of the Turing family have been elected members of the Royal Society, and his grandfather also received an honorary degree in mathematics from Cambridge University. Judging from his origins, he is not an ordinary person."

"And he himself is also very powerful. He was admitted to Cambridge University at the age of 19 and became a researcher at King's College, Cambridge University at the age of 23. It can be said that he is an absolute genius."

"If this is the case, the other party will understand if he has money." Fan Meng interrupted at this time. "A talented bachelor who has a very good family inheritance and doesn't have much expensive consumption can definitely save a lot of money."

While talking and laughing, the five people took the car back to the Lewis couple's house in Cambridge. Unexpectedly, in the end, Mr. Lewis only asked Liang En for a symbolic penny.

"The process of this treasure hunt is enough for us. Compared with thousands of pounds, it is obviously more important to see our names appear in the Cambridge school magazine." Mr. Lewis explained why he did this.

Obviously, for a wealthy man like Mr Lewis, thousands of pounds is just a small amount of money. So he is naturally willing to show his generosity when he has received enough benefits.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Liang En is now a well-known scholar. So in the eyes of Mr. Lewis, this was enough for him to give up this part of the profits and leave a good impression on him.

"Now we have reached the stage where we can make money by brushing our faces." After returning to his car, Liang En laughed. Then he divided the money with Fan Meng and Pierce.

Pierce received £1,100 from the business because he was the introducer. As an employee, Fan Meng received 150 pounds as a bonus for this trip.

It has to be said that the harvest from this operation was very average from a financial perspective, but it was very valuable to Liang En himself. At least after possessing new skills, it will obviously be much easier for him to write a book next.

After returning to London, Liang En's main job besides writing books was to practice the use of Turkish bows, maces and firearms.

After all, there will be many opportunities to explore places where the light of civilization has not shined in the future, so it is not a bad thing to learn some things in advance.

Since his body was strengthened, Liang En suddenly became much more skilled in using these ancient weapons. Among them, the one with the greatest improvement in training is the mace. After all, hitting people with a stick is a basic skill engraved in human DNA.

The next best thing is the use of firearms. After all, although modern weapons are much more complex in structure than similar weapons in ancient times, they are much simpler in operation.

The only thing that was somewhat difficult was the use of bows and arrows, but considering that archery skills still have a certain value even today, Liang En still invested a lot of time in training this skill.

"There are fewer and fewer young people who are willing to learn how to use this ancient weapon." In a comprehensive gymnasium, a Turkish uncle from Germany watched Liang En shoot ten shots skillfully. Queen of Arrow praised.

"To be honest, I basically don't see many people in my hometown in Turkey who are willing to learn this ancient skill. This is really a sad thing."

"There's no way, Uncle Maimaiti, times have changed." After completing a round of training, Liang En said while sitting on the edge to rest.

"On the one hand, everyone is very busy and really don't have much energy to learn something that has little practical use in modern society. But on the other hand, almost everything related to this skill has disappeared."

"To give you the simplest example, let's not talk about the scarcity of archery halls and places where you can practice archery. It is difficult to find a suitable store to sell just bows and arrows."

"For example, I want a traditional-style Turkish bow with all the structures replaced with modern materials, but I can't find any on the market. Either a purely modern bow, or a purely traditional bow."

"Then why don't you choose to order a bow?" asked the uncle named Maimaiti. "If you order it, you can make a bow that best suits you."

"You are right, but I really don't know anyone in this field." Liang En said with a helpless shrug.

After all, whether in the East or the West, this kind of thing is a very small circle, and it is indeed difficult for outsiders to find corresponding manpower.

Even though we are in the Internet age, the so-called craftsmen on the Internet have different levels of skills, so it is not easy to find the right people.
