Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Liang En originally thought that one or two people might drive over to take away these gold necklaces and sign a series of related documents with him, but in fact the other party obviously paid more attention to them than Liang En imagined.

Just when Liang En bought some desserts and a cup of hot tea from a mobile restaurant more than a hundred meters away, and was about to go back to the car for afternoon tea, he saw a minibus and a small truck similar to that used by a moving company coming from He drove over on the highway not far away and stopped next to his car.

After the vehicles stopped, a dozen people got out of the vehicles.

Then an old man wearing work clothes and glasses walked to Liang En's car, then raised his hands in front of his eyebrows to block the sun, and looked into the cab of the car through the window glass.

"Sir, what can I do for you?" Liang En asked the elder while holding a small paper bag.

"Ah, young man, I am Dr. David Caldwell from the Scottish Underground Treasure Department." When Liang En asked, the elder turned his head and asked him kindly. "Do you know where the owner of this car is now?"

"Well, I am the owner of this car, Liang En. Of course you can call me Lawrence."

Liang En suddenly remembered that he had included his license plate number when he notified the museum before, so he asked. "Are you the people from the Scottish Underground Treasure Department who came to receive the treasure after receiving the call just now——"

After a few words to confirm each other's identities, Liang En opened the cab and took out five separately wrapped gold collar parts from the glove box on the passenger seat.

As Liang En opened the cloth bags one by one, the gold collars appeared one by one in front of the museum staff.

The first two gold collars with local characteristics did not attract the attention of these museum staff, because there are many similar things in the cultural relics in their collections.

However, when the French gold collar broken into two sections appeared in front of everyone, Liang En noticed that all the archaeologists present showed interested eyes.

"Liang, you are so lucky." Dr. Caldwell couldn't help but said after seeing the fragments of the collar.

"If I remember correctly, this gold collar should be the third gold collar from France unearthed in Scotland. It is of very, very historical value. Of course, it cannot be compared with the last collar."

"Yes, because the last collar combines the styles of ancient Greece, ancient Rome and the British Iron Age." Liang En said as he opened the last cloth bag and revealed the gold-woven collar.

"As I wrote in the email I sent you, this should be the first time something like this has been discovered in the whole of Scotland and even the whole of the UK -"

"Yes, this represents a line of cultural and trade exchange that we have never discovered before." Dr. Caldwell said looking at the gold bracelet seriously.

"This is a major archaeological discovery, because most current history believes that it was only after Rome invaded Britain that the entire island began to communicate with those civilizations in southern Europe——"

Perhaps because he was asked about his major, Dr. Caldwell talked endlessly about his analysis. Liang En was able to pick up these topics because he had read information about this collar in another world.

As a result, the two of them became more and more in tune with each other. They talked about gold bracelets, ancient trade routes, and then talked about various connections between the European continent and the British Isles.

Because of the information from another world and the map of the Viking Age that he had obtained previously, Liang En was able to take up the topic of the doctor and come up with some refreshing viewpoints from time to time.

"Seriously, Lawrence, your knowledge accumulation and attitude in this area far exceed my imagination. At least the treasure hunters I have seen before can't do this."

Dr. Caldwell sighed after watching the archaeologists and security personnel begin to set up a cordon around the perimeter and start searching.

“They often only care about how much money they can get for digging up these things, and they are dismissive of the history hidden behind the cultural relics.”

"I think this may be because I majored in archeology at University College Cork." Liang En said with a smile, "So I paid more attention to this aspect during the treasure hunt."

"Then your current career is indeed a good one." After hearing what Liang En said, Dr. Caldwell smiled on his face. "At least it will allow you to work in this area."

In most countries, occupations with long-term and stable work contracts, such as those working on the archaeological team under the National Museum, are very popular.

Therefore, in Dr. Caldwell’s view, Ireland does not have many such positions due to its small population, and it is difficult for a foreigner like Liang En to find such a job in the UK. That's why he chose the path of this treasure hunter.

"Compared with the archaeological team, my job is more free. At the same time, I have the opportunity to find wealth that is difficult for ordinary people to find." Liang En said with a smile after hearing what the doctor said.

"For example, after I find these treasures, I can get a lot of money to improve my life."

"Hahaha, that's true." After hearing what Liang En said, Dr. Caldwell smiled and patted his shoulder. "But I hope you can always maintain your passion for this industry and not just focus on the economic aspects."

At the end of the chat, the doctor told Liang En that if he found any treasures in the future, he could give him priority. Then start calling the superior department to communicate and ask questions about bonuses.

Money matters are always the most difficult to deal with, so it was not until 11:30 pm that the National Museums of Scotland made the final decision in this regard.

Just when the person in charge, Dr. Caldwell, came over with the news, Lawrence was chatting with some archaeologists who were taking a rest.

After learning that Liang Enhui had a paper on ancient Egyptian writing published in the next issue of the Journal of the British Archaeological Association, these archaeological experts accepted him into their chat circle.

After all, the British attach great importance to things like class, so if Liang En was just an ordinary treasure digger, these archaeologists would basically not be willing to pay attention to him.

Just after Liang En synthesized the map in his mind and finished speaking half-truths and half-falsehoods about the development of trade routes between the ancient European continent and Britain, Dr. Caldwell called him out of the crowd.

"Has the museum made a decision?" Lawrence asked quietly after walking out of the crowd.

"Yes, the National Museum of Scotland has made a decision to acquire it." The doctor nodded. "They are willing to pay 1 million to purchase these things and permanently place introduction boards in the exhibition area to introduce your contribution to this discovery."

"Of course, this is just a preliminary agreement. If you have any additional requirements, you can make them now and I can help you negotiate."

"No need, the conditions are already very good now." Liang En nodded and said. "Of course, if possible, I hope you can pay the money a little later, because I will soon set up a company of my own."
