Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 101 Cambridge
The relationship between the Americans and the British is very interesting. On the one hand, the two sides look down on each other. The Americans think that the British are outdated, while the British think that the Americans are nouveau riche.

But on the other hand, both countries are countries with Anglo-Saxon as the main ethnic group, and they also share a lot of common interests, so there are certain connections between them.Therefore, after having money, both parties like to buy houses and land from each other.

It's just that the British mainly buy some large estates in the United States, while the Americans are used to buying some historic buildings in the UK.To sum it up, both parties are looking for what they lack in the other.

Therefore, it is very common for an American to come to the UK to buy a historic house after making a fortune, especially the house that the Lewis and his wife bought this time is located near Cambridge, which can very well demonstrate the taste of the owner.

As for the reason why the couple wanted Liang En to help them inspect the house, it was also very simple, because the house was sold to them as a package.They want to know more about their houses in this way.

For ordinary people, this approach is indeed a bit strange, but everyone also knows that rich people often have some small hobbies of their own.

For Liang En, this kind of small hobby that belongs to the rich is very worth encouraging.Because it is precisely because of this demand that an industry like him can be provided with a sufficient market.

After making a decision and making an appointment with the other party on the phone, Liang En, Pierce and Fan Meng drove Father Pierce's SUV straight to Cambridge the next morning.

"Have you brought everything?" After starting the car, Liang En asked while holding the steering wheel.

"Don't worry, boss, metal detectors, crowbars, and all kinds of temporary processing tools have been brought." Fan Meng looked at the pile of tools beside him and in the trunk and said, "The only thing now is to hope that the other party's The residential area should not be too large.”

"Don't worry, it's definitely a big deal." Pierce, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, said with confidence: "I checked their house on the Internet before, it is a detached villa in the urban area, with six bedrooms, a garden and open air swimming pool."

"Although I haven't found the exact size of the property, according to the satellite map, the property is only a few hundred square meters. If the three of us go together, we can definitely get it done in a day—"

Cambridge is not too far from London, so about an hour after departure, the car drove into this city with a long history.

Although everyone knows that Cambridge University was established later than Oxford University, the city of Cambridge is by no means a new city.Cambridge has been an important city in Britain since Roman times.

Before the city became known as the University of Cambridge, it was the most important port city on the Cam River and the trade center of the entire Cam River Basin.

Because it is a trade center, the city is more open than Oxford, so it looks more modern than Oxford.Of course, this kind of modernization is naturally incomparable with places like London.

"I was taken by my parents to travel in Cambridge and Oxford when I was a child, and they told me that I should be able to take the exam here." When the car entered the urban area of ​​Cambridge, Fan Meng looked at the buildings on the side of the road with a look of nostalgia .

"I am also like this. It seems that many Chinese parents would do the same." When Fan Meng said this, Liang En also suddenly remembered what happened when he was a child. "It's a mix of expectations for the children and dreams of the parents."

Liang En's father was a graduate student who graduated in the 80s. If he hadn't dragged his family out for land, he might have been able to stay in a university as a professor in China.

Therefore, he naturally hoped that Liang En could embark on a path of obtaining a better life through learning, becoming a lawyer, engineer or teacher, not a businessman or something.

That's why Liang En earned 100 million pounds and his father didn't feel very happy.But when the article was published in Liang En Magazine, he was very excited.

To be honest, this seems to be a common habit among Chinese.That is to hope to change destiny through knowledge, not anything else.

So when Liang En was young, he was naturally taken by his parents to visit Cambridge and Oxford, two academic holy places in the eyes of ordinary people, and at the same time encouraged Liang En.

It's a pity that if you want to be admitted to such a top university, your parents must have money.Either I have enough talent, hard work and a little bit of luck.So Liang En naturally couldn't come here.

Soon, the car passed by the center of Cambridge, and then stopped at the door of a room surrounded by manicured hedges.

"Welcome—" After the doorbell rang, a servant verified their identities and opened the door. Then in the living room, a couple who appeared to be around 40 years old welcomed Liang En.

"Nice to meet you." Liang En said after saying hello, "The main purpose of you inviting me here is to inspect this house and find some things that you have overlooked, right?"

"Yes, that's it." Mr. Lewis nodded. "We want to understand the history of this house in this way. After all, the previous owner of the house was not the earliest owner of the house, so many things are unclear."

"You probably haven't done extensive renovations on this house—" Liang En asked after briefly inspecting the room accompanied by the owner.

"Yes, except for the bedroom and the bathroom, after we simply renovated it, we basically haven't touched the rest of the room." Mr. Lewis nodded and said.

"The reason why we bought this house is because of the most original classical style inside, so except for some things related to life, we mainly clean the rest of the room, and have not changed much."

"Understood, let's start searching now." Liang En nodded lightly, and then said. "If there is any content that may cause damage, we will notify you in advance."

Different from ordinary rooms, this kind of rich people often have special rooms for storing various items.So the attic method that Liang En usually used when hunting treasures naturally lost its effect at this time.

Therefore, unlike the previous practice of going straight to the attic when searching for items in the room, Liang En and the others honestly used metal detectors to detect from the first floor this time.

"I found something here." Less than 3 minutes after starting to explore from the living room, Fan Meng's metal detector rang. It turned out that the other party detected a metal reaction between the decorative wooden board and the wall.

Because Liang En replaced all the metal detectors with high-end ones after making money last time, so they can distinguish the difference between ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals.And now the metal detector detects that the things in the wall are non-ferrous metals.

Considering that the probability of using copper as a building material in this kind of house is not high, the things found should not belong to the components of the building itself.

"This is a one-crown horse sword silver coin." After moving the optical fiber detector from the car, Liang En put the probe in through a gap in the wooden decorative panel, and soon he discovered what the target was.
