Chapter 38: The King's Treasure
"Boss, there's a gentleman named Jagdeep who wants to see you?" Shakru had just arrived at the company that day, and Kaga reported to him.
"I don't know this guy, why is he looking for me?" asked Shakru, puzzled.
"Well, he said he came to you to make a fortune, and it's a big deal!" replied Kaga cautiously.
I don't know why, why does Shakru always feel so familiar with this sentence? If you think about it carefully, isn't it familiar, is this what he said when he first asked to see Tasim, could it be that our Pandit family also has a rich treasure buried in a temple?
So Shakru commanded with interest: "Let him in, and I'll ask what the hell is going on!"
After a while, a tall, thin, blue-faced bearded man walked in and greeted him as soon as they met: "Hello, Dear Mr. Pandit!"
"Well, hello, Mr. Jagdeep, may I ask you what you have to do with me today?" asked Shakru straight to the point.
Jagdip cautiously glanced around, and saw that there was no one, so he took a step closer and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Pandit, I wonder if you have heard of King Sinkh's treasure?"
"I really don't know much about this, King Sinhe!" replied Shakru, a little embarrassed.
"Well, it's true that this King Sinh is not particularly famous, but I have brought some information about him, you can take a look!" said Jugdip, handing over some photocopied materials.
When Shakru saw the results, he suddenly realized that the so-called King Sinkh was just a princely state king, you must know that there were more than 700 princely states in India during the British colonial period, and it was obvious that this Sinkh king should be one of the more than 700 princely state kings, so let alone Shakra, even historians who specialize in the history of Indian princely states cannot remember the name of every princely state king.
However, the king of Sinh was indeed pitiful, and was hanged by the British colonists in 1857. But after reading these materials, Shakru was still a little puzzled, so he continued to ask: "But you don't mention the so-called treasure on these materials?"
But Jugdeep replied with a natural face: "Of course, there can be no treasure information on this kind of official information, otherwise it would not have been robbed by the British long ago." In fact, according to legend, the king of Sinh knew that he was doomed before he was captured by the British, so he buried the thousands of tons of gold he had accumulated and a large number of rare treasures for his descendants to use for the restoration of the country, which is the origin of King Sinkh's treasure!"
"A thousand tons of gold? That's a bit exaggerated, isn't it? Where did he get so much gold from a little landlord, it's a bit possible to say it's a thousand pounds of gold!" Shakru complained.
"Of course, this legend is inevitably exaggerated, but even if it is only a thousand pounds of gold, it is a lot of money!" replied Jagdeep with a smile.
"Well, that's right, even a thousand catties of gold are tens of millions of dollars!" Shakru nodded in agreement, because he had been trading ancient gold with the Rajs Company intermittently during this time, so he was very clear about the price in this regard.
Hearing that Shakru agreed with his opinion, Jagdeep was very happy: "Mr. Pandit, I knew that you would definitely be interested in this matter, so I came here to seek cooperation with you!"
"Seek cooperation with me, what are you doing together? It won't be to dig up the treasure of King Sinkh, will you?" Shackru guessed.
Jagdeep nodded and said, "That's right, it's to work together to dig for treasure!"
"Why don't you dig up this kind of good deed yourself, but come to me for cooperation?" asked Shakru in confusion.
Jagdip immediately explained: "Oh, that's right, now I only know that this treasure is buried in the area of Unao County in Uttar Pradesh, but the specific location is not clear, I heard that Mr. Pandit you have learned an extremely mysterious treasure hunt in China, it seems to be called the dragon hunting technique, right, and you have successfully helped Mr. Tasim of Cochin to find their ancestral treasure of the Padmanaba Swami Temple, so this time I also came here to trouble you to perform the dragon search trick again, you can rest assured, The reward remains the same, it's still 10% of the treasure!"
Hearing this reason, Shakru couldn't help but laugh dumbly, what he said last time about "dragon hunting" was purely to amuse Tasim, he already knew the burial location of the treasure of the Padmanaba Swamy Temple, just to strengthen the persuasion and bad taste, so he put on a posture of looking for the dragon and dividing the gold, and in fact, how could he do this, and it is estimated that there are few masters in China who can calculate the burial location of the tomb.
Just as Shakru wanted to explain the matter to Jagdip, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, so he asked, "Wait a minute, what did you just say? This treasure of King Sinh is in Unao in Uttar Pradesh?"
"That's right, Unao of Uttar Pradesh!" Jagdeep replied quickly. (To explain, Uttar Pradesh is not a state located in the northern state, but the name of this state is Uttar Pradesh...... )
"If this Unao is the case, then it would be a bit interesting!" Shakru muttered to himself, and the reason why he said this was because he remembered that in his previous life in Unao, India, there had been a very famous "oolong treasure", which seemed to be talking about the gold buried by a princely king.
At that time, it was a prophet who claimed that when he was dreaming, he dreamed that King Singh asked him to dig out this treasure and recover the kingdom of Singh, but because the prophet himself had no financial resources to mine, he wrote a letter to the Prime Minister of India and the President of the Reserve Bank of India, and then the Prime Minister really believed it, and sent the Institute of Archaeology and the Geological Survey to cooperate with him to dig up the treasure, and the final outcome was naturally a farce, not to mention a thousand tons of gold, not even a tael of gold was dug up, which became the biggest joke in the archaeological world at that time!
Thinking of this, Shakru suddenly changed his mind, because for him, there are really not many opportunities to pretend to be forced, because there are only a few treasures he remembers, whether true or false, so this kind of opportunity must be cherished, otherwise even if he wants to play again, he will not have a chance in the future, and this also reminds himself of one thing, he has to write it down while he still has memories of the things in his previous life, otherwise he may forget it later!
