――――――
In the picture, Fang Hong is holding a bowl and drinking soup, while looking at the clay pot silly.
Sailor: "Is Brother Gun stupid?"
"I look like I'm stupid. ”
Fang Hong took a sip: "Can a stupid person have such a wise martial artist as me?"
"Phew, Brother Gun, you first find some water to wash your face before you say this. ”
Fang Hong pointed to the clay pot: "See if you see this mark, look at a few words, hahahaha, Cambyses." ”
"What do you mean by Cambyses?"
"Cambyses, a name that resonated the world in the ancient Mediterranean Wars, ruled over the huge family of the Persian Empire, one of the largest empires in the history of the world. ”
"Cambyses I was supposed to be king of Persia, and his son Cyrus founded the Persian Empire, which unified the vast territory from the northern shore of the Mediterranean to the region of India. ”
"What does the king of Persia have to do with Egypt?"
"Listen, it's Cambyses I, and once there is such and such a life in Western history, it proves that his descendants and emperors have the same name as him, called so-and-so II. When Cambyses was succeeded by Cambyses II, the Persian Empire was already the most powerful country in the world. ”
"What about us?"
"It was the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, so the unified Persian Empire was stronger. ”
Cambyses II succeeded to Egypt and captured Pharaoh Psammetik III in one fell swoop, so Cambyses was known as the Emperor of Egypt. ”
At that time, Greek civilization was still on the verge of germination, and ancient Babylon was destroyed by Cambyses II's uncle, which marked the end of the era of the four ancient civilizations and the arrival of the era of war for hegemony in the Mediterranean. ”
"This Cambyses II was the most brutal ruler of ancient Egypt, and if this clay pot has the same meaning as the information I found on the Internet, then it means that it records a history of war letters in ancient Egypt, which proves that this is indeed something left by the ancient Egyptians. ”
The greater value of cultural relics is the scientific research value, and the collection value is only secondary.
However, the huge scientific value can enhance the value of the collection.
Once these symbols are identified as Cambyses, the value of these clay pots will gradually rise.
From this point of view, there is also a reason for Fang Hong's smirk, whoever gets it giggles.
Money can't buy this thing.
Think about it, how could someone in ancient Egypt store in a pyramid a vessel that records the destruction of their own kingdom?
Cambyses and his successor, Darius, of course, left behind a small trace of Persian, but this was written by themselves, and it is not certain whether it is true or not.
The dense symbols on this clay pot are obviously a passage of text with smooth meaning, which should be able to decipher a story.
This story may shed light on important historical information about the destruction of ancient Egypt or the founding of the Persian Empire.
Interestingly, this thing will be very valuable in the West.
Because the history of the West has not yet begun at this age, this period of history will always belong to several major ancient civilizations, and the research of Western historians is also aimed at this direction.
But there are too few historical sources.
Among the four ancient kingdoms, the discovery of the oracle bone inscription is undoubtedly very important, and the rediscovery of the ancient Egyptian civilization was a major event in the same year.
At the same time, the ancient Babylonian Empire fell during this period, leaving no record of itself in ancient Babylonian writing.
The destruction of ancient Babylon and ancient Egypt was only a few decades, and perhaps this clay pot will have the information in it.
Or perhaps, this clay pot only has the menu of a certain meal of Cambyses II.
But all this is not important to Fang Hong at all, Fang Hong only needs to use the words Cambyses, and then have a dazzling exchange.
Speaking of which, one thing has to be said.
In the world of cultural relics collection, it is mainly divided into two parts, one is a private collection and the other is a museum collection.
Of course, private collections can be bought for money and can be traded at large auctions, but the items in the collections of museums in various countries are forbidden to be traded.
But there's a way to get the deal done.
That is the exchange of cultural relics between the two museums.
In other words, Fang Hong must ensure that these jars are collected in his own name, and then bring them back to China, borrow the name of a domestic museum, and trade with a museum in Europe and the United States that has the things he needs, and then he can get back what he wants.
Of course, when it comes to China, there is a way to deal with the specific distribution of cultural relics.
In the United States, it is stipulated that buried objects that are more than 100 years old are all counted as cultural relics, but in China, there are too many old objects that are more than 100 years old, and there are classifications between various cultural relics, and even some things that belong to cultural relics in Europe and the United States are not cultural relics when they are brought back to China.
And the state has always been very supportive of the use of private nationals to bring cultural relics that have been displaced abroad back to China or to return them to Chinese names.
And now, the most important thing is to take these jars under your own name!
Fang Hong sat at the base of the wall, holding the jar with Cambyses written on it and laughing happily, of course, to prevent more information from being revealed.
To tell the truth, people who don't know how to think about him will think that he is a homeless man who has just been rewarded with a hundred-dollar bill.
It's really silly to laugh.
"Ding Ding Ding, old wolf, please eat chicken ......"
"Hello?"
"It's me, I'll call you on a different phone, this side of the matter is settled, I will go to Utah to wait for you when I get my green card. ”
Fang Hong was excited: "It's really done?"
"It's done, this time I also troubled a friend of the Tsinghua Alumni Association in California, and I had the opportunity to introduce you. ”
"Well, forget it, I'm not from Tsinghua, and I'm not from the United States. ”
"Dude, you have to pay attention to the wording, in the United States, with a green card, and being reported by the media, you have to say when you meet someone, I am a permanent resident of the United States, I have a green card, you understand. ”
"Okay. ”
After hanging up the phone, Fang Hong finally relaxed: "This friend of mine is from the Tsinghua Alumni Association, and I used to complain about Tsinghua because of this livestock." I won't talk about the details, the green card should be soon. ”
"Brother Gun, what is the stalk of the Tsinghua Alumni Association? Tsinghua University has a lot of people in California?"
Fang Hong was stunned for a moment: "No, there are two Tsinghua in the world, and there is another Tsinghua on the other side of the Taiwan Strait. As for the organization of the alumni association, it is very common among the Chinese in California, such as Guangqu and Hujian, and every county has a hometown association in California, not to mention how many people there are, but everyone gets together and can take care of each other. ”
Originally, Fang Hong might have to squat in this place for two days, but the green card was done.
It's time to get out.
However, some sailors poured cold water on Fang Hong at this time: "Even if you get a green card, will it be on you?"
"What do you mean?"
"If you let the Nevada state police stop you, you don't have a green card, they can take you away reasonably and legally, although your friends can take your green card to get people, but they can make up a reason to seize all your things. ”
"That's right. Fang Hong pondered: "Do I have to find an opportunity to avoid the search and enter the territory of Utah?"
"I suggest that you just turn off the live broadcast by touching and walking one by one, so that no one will track you. ”
Fang Hong didn't expect that the Nevada State Police could completely detain the things and not return them to Fang Hong.
Fang Hong thought for a while: "It's okay now, wild adventures have become evasion and pursuit, and every time I find a hiding place, I will start a live broadcast for everyone to see." ”
Utah is east of Nevada, and Fang Hong was originally going to cross the river further downstream and pass by the Angel Land and the side of Red Mountain, but now it seems that he has to find an opportunity to cross the river and leave Nevada first.
