Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 60 Donations and Harvests

The last photo shows a group of people in various costumes coming out of the barricades to surrender their weapons.And behind them is a three-story ancient Roman-style building. If you guessed correctly, this should be a photo of the last batch of rebels surrendering.

However, unlike the previous photos, this photo has a black circle circling the location of the flagpole on the top of the building, and there is a short sentence written in black ink next to it.

"We got it (we got it) - what does this mean?" Liang En frowned looking at this sentence with only three words, and saw Pierce staring directly at the photo with his eyes.

"Did you find anything?" Liang En turned his head and asked.

"National flag, this box contains the Irish flag." Pierce trembled quickly after hearing Liang En's question, and then said in an excited tone.

"You mean, the national flag?" Liang En also reacted after hearing what Pierce said, and then looked at the faded green silk.

The Irish flag is made up of green, white and orange, so the folded piece of faded green silk may well be the flag that hung on that building.

"This building seems familiar." Obviously, if it was just an ordinary flag, the other party wouldn't be able to point it out on the photo, so Liang En quickly turned his attention to that photo.

"This is Dublin General Post Office." After staring at the photo in a daze for several seconds, Liang En searched his memory for the content of this picture.

"The headquarters of the rebel army was set up here, and it was also the place where the first Irish flag was raised in the rebellion—wait, do you think this flag will be..."

Although he said that he was just guessing, Liang En was already sure that the flag in front of him was the first Irish flag raised during the Easter Uprising.

Because the moment he thought of this, four cards with different colors of light appeared in his mind to verify his conjecture.

Among the four cards, two are [identification (N)] and one is [detection (N)].In addition, there is a silver SR card.Unfortunately, this time the card is an item card.

[Standard of the Irish Rebels (SR): - Oh, the night fell, the crackling of the rifles, and the British troops hiding.The sky is full of bullets, and the bayonet is illuminated by tongues of fire——

Just like the Irish folk song "Mist and Dew", in order to get rid of British colonial rule, countless Irish children took up arms and went to the front line of the uprising, and dedicated their lives for it.

This flag represents the unyielding spirit of those insurgents, and even the entire Irish nation.Therefore, this item card can bring some power from this nation to the item holder.

Item card, as long as you have this flag, you can gain extra favor from the Irish when negotiating with the Irish. In addition, this flag can be used to boost morale once a day, which can make all Irish within a radius of 100m full of fighting courage. 】

After judging the specific content of this flag, the warehouse suddenly fell silent, because this flag was completely different from the small East German tank or hummingbird pistol they had dealt with before.

"This thing...how should I deal with it?" After a minute or two of silence, Pierce broke the silence first. "With that photo album, we can basically determine what happened to the flag. But—"

"But such things are indeed difficult to sell." Liang En continued. "If you set a high price, you may get a reputation similar to a profiteer. If the price is too low, you will feel a loss no matter how you think about it."

"The most important thing is, whether it's the flag or these gold and silver pieces sold to rich people as usual, I will feel a little uneasy." Speaking of this, Liang En suddenly thought of something.

After all, he has nearly a million pounds on hand, and Pierce also has a very well-run store.So they are not short of money for the time being.In this case, they naturally have the capital to pursue some higher-level things.

"We can take this thing to where it should go." Liang En looked at Pierce and said, "Of course, this may make us make less money this time, but it will be a good thing in the long run— —”

Ten days later, amidst the pattering rain, the hall of the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin was packed with people.

These people range from babies held in the arms of their mothers to gray-haired old people, and there are even a few soldiers in military uniforms inside.But they all have a green clover brooch on their chests without exception.

Just after everyone waited for a few minutes, two guards of honor wearing a replica of the uniform of the Republic of Ireland Army when it was first established walked in from the door.

Behind them, two other guards of honor came in carrying a large glass photo frame, and that photo frame contained the tattered and old Irish flag.

As the small military band at the gate played the national anthem of Ireland, everyone present saluted the flag.Following everyone's gaze, the photo frame with the flag was firmly hung in the hall of the museum.

After the soldiers left the hall in line, Liang En and Pierce followed the crowd and carried a green wreath the size of a swimming ring in front of the small monument under the national flag, and then left the museum.

And just when the handover ceremony was completed, Liang En found that the item card related to the national flag in his mind had also disappeared.Explain that those item cards are indeed related to the items he holds.

Because of the ceremony just now, the atmosphere in the car seemed a little heavy.Liang En, who was still driving in the end, broke the atmosphere in the car. "I just suddenly felt that everything we did was worthwhile."

Liang En held the steering wheel and said, "And I didn't expect that everyone would take this matter so seriously."

"The only downside is that we are not as famous as we thought at the time." Pierce shrugged and said, "After all, the place where we got this thing is in London, England. If we fully publicize this matter, it may not be for us. It's a good thing."

A week ago, after realizing the historical importance of the flag they found, Liang En and the others chose to bring the flag back to Ireland and donated it to the National Museum.

Since the national flag came from an abandoned British military camp, in order to avoid some diplomatic disputes, the names of Liang En and Pierce and the process of discovering the national flag cannot be made public.

So even on the small bronze medal under the current national flag that is used as a commemoration, only their surnames are recorded and their full names are not recorded.

This does not mean that the two of them got nothing. On the one hand, although they donated the national flag and supporting letters and photos.However, the gold and silver ingots that were originally placed in the box were sold to the museum at the price of high-purity gold and silver.

Although the transaction made far less money than selling all the items, the two still each received 13000 euros.

On the other hand, after this donation, they also have a relationship with the museum.Then when museums and folks prepare to do some joint activities in the future, they will naturally become the priority.

This kind of connection with the museum may not have much use in ordinary times, but it can invisibly improve social status.

For example, if you have a long-term relationship with the museum.Then everyone will know you as an explorer, not an antique dealer.
