Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 307 Collection in the Attic
The handover of cultural relics took more than half an hour, mainly because this donated cultural relic was a public donation, so it naturally took time for things like taking pictures.

"It's a great pleasure to see you helping these things go home again." The ambassador shook hands with Liang En and said, "I believe we will have more cooperation."

"Yes." Liang En nodded. After confirming the safety just now, the ambassador showed Liang En several photos of the cultural relics he had returned in the United States.

The photos were all black and white, and they were intentionally blurred.But Liang En was able to confirm that most of the things he had returned before had returned to their original places smoothly.

These photos made Liang En very happy, because he learned from these photos that those things had really returned to their hometown, where they should be.

To be honest, it is a good thing for Liang En to have all kinds of treasures, but it is a better thing for him to return those illegally exported things to his hometown.

After finishing the donation, Liang En did not return to the ranch, but drove to Fan Meng's restaurant.Because Fan Meng called this morning to say that he couldn't come and had to clean the attic of his house that hadn't been cleaned for a long time.

According to Fan Meng, many things in that attic were piled up by the original owner before they came here, so it is considered old.

And that's why Liang En rushed over after finishing his work at the embassy, ​​because he wanted to help Fan Meng see if there was anything of value in these things.

"Xiao Meng, come down quickly, Liang En is here to find you." It was Fan Meng's father who came to greet Liang En. After a few simple greetings, Fan Meng's father went to the stairwell and shouted loudly.

"It seems that you came much earlier than I expected." Soon, Fan Meng, who was wearing a raincoat and a gas mask, came down the stairs, and then took off his gas mask and said.

"I came here as soon as I finished my work in the morning." Liang En looked at Fan Meng who was covered in dust and said, "Have you found anything of value now?"

"I found some strange things, but now I don't know if they are valuable." Fan Meng shrugged and said, "You know I'm not professional in this field, so many things can only be guessed."

"Well, you guessed this before me, otherwise you wouldn't have called me here." Liang En shrugged, then quickly put on another set of equipment and walked up to the attic above the third floor.

Although the relationship between Liang En and Fan Meng's family is very good, Liang En has never been to this place before. After all, the attic is full of things similar to a garbage dump, so it is really inconvenient for guests to visit.

"Why do you suddenly want to clean this place?" Liang En asked a little puzzled looking at the things that were covered in thick dust and could only be seen as outlines.

"I didn't want to clean it at first, but I didn't know what happened two days ago, and people from the fire department ran over." Fan Meng replied in a low voice from under the gas mask.

"You know that my house is a restaurant, which uses a lot of fire. In addition, the things in the attic are too complicated, so it is naturally considered a fire hazard."

"So if we don't want to be ordered to suspend business for rectification, then we must sort out the entire attic as soon as possible. At least it can't be messed up like this. It seems that there is a danger of fire."

The reason for not choosing to hire someone to clean is also very simple. The labor costs in Dublin are really not cheap, so people who can clean by themselves often choose to do it themselves.

Soon, Fan Meng moved out several strange things he found just now, including a mushroom that looked like a human face, a stone like a banana, and a huge fruit.

"This is a kind of wood ganoderma, and it doesn't have much medicinal effect." Liang En said, looking at the piece of woody mushroom seriously.

"Then it was collected and cut out holes that look like the eyes and mouth as a wrinkled mask, and round holes were punched on both sides for lanyards."

"This kind of thing is more common in the Himalayas, especially because of the harsh environment of the mountain people in Nepal, they often have a wrinkled face like this mask."

"According to local tradition, this mask is often used by ordinary people, who will wear this mask to drive away the evil spirits lurking in the mountain mist."

"It's just that your mask looks too new, and the two round holes for tying the rope on both sides are too smooth and neat. They should be drilled with an electric drill, so this is most likely a modern travel souvenir produced in South Asia. "

"As for this stone, it's a dinosaur tooth fossil." After putting down the mushroom mask, Liang En picked up the dusty, smooth-looking yellow-black stone and said.

"From the perspective of size, this fossil should have been the tooth of some kind of Tyrannosaurus rex. This banana-like tooth is easy enough to pierce the skin of other dinosaurs to complete the hunt."

"Then this thing is indeed valuable for collection, at least it should look more like the teeth of a carnivorous beast than the teeth of a Bengal tiger." Fan Meng immediately stuffed the fossil into his pocket.

"My father has always hoped to get the teeth or bones of a ferocious beast. Tyrannosaurus like this is definitely the beast of beasts, and it must meet his requirements."

"It does meet the requirements. The most powerful tiger is not as powerful as the owner of this tooth." Liang En shrugged with a smile, then pointed to the washbasin-sized fruit.

"The last thing is a sea coconut fruit. You can see that it looks very similar to a female pelvis as a whole. Therefore, since it was discovered, it has been considered as a drug that can enhance human fertility."

The saying of complementing shape with form is not only popular among Chinese, but a special saying that has been popular all over the world for a long time.

"It takes 25 to 40 years for this kind of plant to bloom and bear fruit. It takes a hundred years to be considered a mature variety, and a fruit takes seven years to mature." Liang En said after thinking about the information he had read before.

"Wild coconut palm trees only exist in the Republic of Seychelles, and there are about 8200 trees, so this kind of fruit is hard to see outside."

Speaking of this, Liang En searched for this sea coconut, because he found that this thing should have a history of at least several decades, so theoretically it would leave some traces of the previous owner.

And the fact is as he guessed, he found a line of inscriptions under the fruit - 1891, Bull Terrier, Seychelles Supplies as a souvenir.

In 1891, Britain was at the peak of the empire on which the sun never sets, so the footprints of the British naturally spread all over the world, and brought those specialties from all over the world.

Therefore, it is understandable that such a treasure from the Indian Ocean came to the UK at that time, but I don't know why the original owner would forget this thing in the attic.

After checking the special items that had been placed in conspicuous places before, Liang En and the others were going to start cleaning up the house thoroughly. For them, if they wanted to search in detail, they had to clean up the dust on it first.
