After some careful exploration and research, Chen Hai finally found the location of the entrance. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the cross at the top, Tatsumi accidentally discovered that the cross could move, and when it was closed, the cross pointed to a fanged demon, and on the opposite side was an angel with a halo.

In this way, Chen Hai calculates that the demon represents the closure, and the angel is naturally open.

With the idea of giving it a try, after rotating the cross 180 degrees, I heard a click, and the long black wooden cylinder naturally split into two pieces from the middle.

The bamboo tube was parted, revealing the contents of it, a rolled-up parchment roll.

It's a parchment roll again, why are all foreign mysterious things done with parchment rolls, Chen Hai saw this parchment roll in his hand, and couldn't help but sneer.

・・・・・・・

Gently open it little by little.

The palm-sized barrel could not hold much of the parchment, and although it was rolled, it still limited his width.

The marks on it are not left by ink, but can be removed by gently wiping them, and they should be traces of charcoal, which was common for people in ancient times to record important things on parchment rolls.

When opened, the front of the parchment roll is in the shape of a corn, and nothing can be seen.

In turn, the front of the parchment roll is displayed in front of you, with a lot of lines and graphics on it.

Carefully observed, looking at each paragraph, Chen Hai found that many lines and graphics on it were similar and repeated.

Then find the one with the most repetitions, and Tatsumi found that this figure was exactly the shape of a mountain.

Then, looking for other recurring shapes, lines, and inference, rivers, forests,

Then this parchment can be explained, this is exactly a map.

But what kind of map is this? There is no information, not even the most important textual information.

With another headache, Tatsumi leaned on the backrest, closed his eyes tightly, and rubbed his forehead.

A series of related nouns flashed through my mind.

Map・・・・・・ mountain ・・・・・・

Rivers ・・・・・・・ forests・・・・・・・

Noah's Ark ・・・・・・・・・ Golden Corn ・・・・・・・

Golden Fleet ・・・・・・・・

・・・・・・・・・ missionaries in South America・・・・・・

Right! It was the missionary, Tatsumi immediately grasped the thought that flashed through his mind.

When the missionaries were first hunted down by the king, they went to South America.

Then, with a clattering hand, he turned over the parchment roll that was placed on the table.

A piece of corn is painted in the middle of the parchment roll, and although it is painted with charcoal, the corn kernels can still be seen as a corn.

Where did corn originate? South America.

In the Age of Discovery, Europeans introduced a large number of crops from South America, including corn, and at the same time, it can be seen from the golden corn that corn is the weight of the people of South America, and corn is the representative of South America.

As for why a corn is drawn specifically, it is to inspire the seeker, and the destination of the map is in South America.

Now we know that the map is located in a certain part of South America. But the question arises again, which region is it?

Chen Hai suddenly had another headache.

South America, 17.79 million square kilometers, the coastline is even longer and boundless, where to find it?

In my mind, I went through the relevant clues over and over again・・・・・・・・・

"Master, the abalone grandson is calling again. Master, the abalone grandson called again・・・・・・・・・"

A bell woke Tatsumi from his thoughts.

Hurriedly looked up at his watch, it was already seven o'clock in the morning, and he sat on the chair and thought about it for four hours unconsciously, but he didn't even release a fart so fart.

Chen Hai felt a little lost in his heart.

Who is abalone? This is the nickname given by Chen Hai to Powell, until now only Chen Hai himself knows, and he has set a special phone ringtone by himself.

Connected the phone, "Boss, why did it take so long to answer the phone, this morning is the summary meeting, didn't you say you wanted to come today?" ”

Powell's voice came through that side.

"Ahh Oh! I'll go over it. As soon as Powell reminded him, Chen Hai immediately remembered that his mind was occupied by parchment rolls and various nouns.

"Well, wait a minute, what time does it start?"

"Eight o'clock ~ you forgot again ~~" Powell said helplessly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll go." With that, hang up the phone.

Wash up a little, put on your shoes, and head out.

When I got downstairs, I called the black driver and set off for the Saul Building.

・・・・・・・

Twenty minutes later, Chen Hai pushed open the door of the conference room under the leadership of the staff, and was immediately taken aback.

There are so many good guys, there is only one empty seat, and it seems that I am missing.

Chen Hai was a little embarrassed in his heart, but he still walked towards the first place with a smile on his face.

Yesterday, the employees heard that the boss of today's meeting was present in person, so they came to the company early today, and no one wanted to come later than the boss, and even some were done at seven o'clock, for fear that the boss would not play cards according to common sense.

However, their boss really did not play his cards according to common sense, and he did not come too early, and arrived ten minutes later after the twentieth meeting.

Chen Hai didn't arrive, Powell could only delay for ten minutes and wait for the boss, who would dare to speak in front of the boss?

After Chenhai announced the start, Powell was the first to summarize, and then each department summarized from heavy to light.

Over and over again, five hours passed. The meeting just ended.

After all the employees were gone, Chen Hai called Powell, sat in the Grand Cherokee, and came to a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.

"Boss, aren't you new to San Francisco? You even know it. "The car stopped in front of a very small Chinese restaurant, the narrow plaque, and the large door next to it were very angry, and they were simply a member of the survival in the cracks.

"Yesterday two of my men came to San Francisco and sent me the location, and today I just called you along, and they said that this store is very good. How, you know? ”

Listening to Chen Hai's words, Powell was a little crying and laughing, "Before the rise of our company, I often came here, and this shop was well-known in the upper class of San Francisco, not only because of his delicious food, but also because of the peculiarity of his small price and high price." Later, when you came, you were busy everywhere, and you didn't come, and you haven't been here for almost two months. ”

"I'm in for a treat today, eat as much as you want, let's go, let's go in and have a look." Saying that, I went in first.
