Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 401 Strange Box
The stench after the ground was dug up made Liang En nervous all of a sudden, because this smell was no stranger to Liang En, it was the smell of rotting corpses.

After smelling this smell, Liang En immediately called Fan Meng. Fan Meng quickly came over and confirmed the discovery. However, at the same time, he also judged that if there were really corpses inside, it should have been earlier than when this place was closed. , not to be involved in criminal cases.

After moving the undamaged iron box out of the pothole, Liang En and Fan Meng searched the entire pothole, only to find that there was nothing inside the pothole except for the large iron box.

"This is really—" Looking at the iron box in front of him that smelled like corpses, Liang En shook his head helplessly. He really wanted to see what was inside, but he really didn't want to turn over the corpse at this time.

Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about this matter soon, because only three or four hours later, the people sent by the butler Lubzon came here together with the Austrian official personnel, and then began to deal with the follow-up matters.

According to the plan, they will drive some large machinery along the old railway line to the entrance of the cave and clean up the entrance of the cave, then overhaul the track and then pull these carriages out of the track and make repairs nearby.

With the arrival of reinforcements, the next work became a lot easier. A group of people first opened all the hidden tunnel vents, and then entered the interior of the mountain to conduct a large-scale inspection.

Since there were some experts in the study of railway trains and World War II history among this group of people, Liang En received a comprehensive survey report on the maintenance center that night.

According to the report, the sources of these carriages are very complicated, among which the carriages of freight cars come from all over Western Europe, and the carriages of those passenger cars also come from multiple Orient Express trains.

During the inspection in the afternoon, the experts cleaned up some of the field gray paint used by the German military on some trains, and then deduced the origin of these Orient Express trains through the number concealed under the paint.

After the outbreak of World War II, many Orient Express trains on the European continent obeyed the orders of the Germans like other trains and served the German war machine.

Due to the status of the legendary luxury train of the Orient Express, the Orient Express was not modified at that time, but was used as a special train for senior officials.

It's just that after the situation became more and more tense at the end of the war, these trains were removed from the status of luxury trains and were ready to be converted into medical trains, but they did not expect that the war would end before the conversion was completed.

According to the numbers on the carriages, the experts learned that these carriages originally belonged to three trains. The existing carriages include 15 sleeper carriages, three dining carriages, two staff carriages and a viewing platform carriage at the end of the train.

"These carriages are just enough to form a special train." Looking at the distribution of carriages, Liang En said to Joan of Arc who was sitting next to him and Fan Meng who was sitting opposite.

"If you consider that most of the furniture, wooden decorative panels and various metal components exist, then the Earl should be able to use vehicles for operations soon."

"That's right, and I really didn't expect Earl Bossett to be the largest shareholder of the company behind a series of luxury train travel routes." Fan Meng looked at some contents of the investigation report and sighed.

Although everyone had dealt with the Earl Bossit family for a long time before, they were indeed not clear about the other party's industry. Now it seems that in addition to a series of French real estate, the other party also has a place in luxury goods.

It may be because of the differences between different worlds. In this world, one of the top ten hotel brands is said to be a luxury group similar to the former Belmond Group. It's also hard to find on the web.

For some veteran nobles, it is very common to secretly hold a series of properties. Many of the properties we are familiar with are owned by families that have never been exposed to the public eye.

"They own 46 iconic top luxury hotels, luxury cruise ships and African adventure businesses all over the world, but the core is luxury trains. To be precise, the operator behind the earliest Orient Express is the predecessor of this group."

Although the behind-the-scenes owner of the entire group cannot be found on the Internet, there is a complete introduction to the group's business, so Joan quickly found out and recalled what he found on the phone .

"Taking trains as an example, the other party operates the Asia-Orient Express from Bangkok to Singapore, the British Pullman luxury train, the Royal Scotsman luxury train, the Irish luxury train, the Peruvian luxury train and the Peruvian Machu Picchu luxury train."

"However, because World War II and the subsequent Cold War seriously damaged the situation in the entire European continent, the other party has not been able to successfully reopen the classic luxury train, so our discovery this time should be very important to them."

"It's very important? That means we will get a lot of bonuses this time!" After hearing Joan of Arc's words, Fan Meng became nervous. After all, even if he worked with Liang En, he made up for it Homework, but still do not understand a lot of places.

In this case, his judgment on whether something is important is also very simple.That is whether this thing is worth money, the more valuable the more precious it is.

Because it was a legal excavation work, and these things were not buried objects, it was discovered that everything belonged to Liang En, and naturally he could enjoy the proceeds from the sale of these things.

"The prize money will definitely not be low. As far as I know, the price of such a well-preserved carriage ranges from 50 to 180 million euros, not to mention that the carriages we found still have complete inheritance and original interior decoration and furniture. "

Now here are all reliable people, so Liang En naturally does not shy away from discussing how much money this discovery can make.

"Therefore, the overall price is between 1000 million and 3000 million euros. If you are lucky, 5000 million euros is not impossible, but it is highly unlikely that the other party will pay the cash in one go."

Although the earl's family property is about 40 to 50 billion euros, most of it is real estate, and the other part of the money is used for various business activities, so it is impossible for the other party to withdraw so much cash to Liang En, otherwise the capital flow Absolutely something goes wrong.

"That is to say, will the earl choose to pay in installments, or will he choose to use something to offset the debt?" Fan Meng also grasped the rules after going through many transactions with Liang En.

In fact, the vast majority of rich people are like this. Most of the money in their hands is invested, so there will always be problems of one kind or another when a large amount of money is needed to be spent in emergencies.

"We don't need to be too anxious to study this matter now. After all, it will probably take more than a month to get the money." Realizing that the topic is almost discussed now, Liang En quickly shifted the topic to other places.

"I'm more concerned about one thing now, which is what's in that box that smells wrong?"

"I don't know, but I will probably get accurate information tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Joan of Arc replied, "As far as I know, these things have arrived at a police laboratory in Vienna tonight, and the results will be available soon."
