Chapter 592: Maps and Text
Zhang Tianyuan studied Japanese in college.,But I wasn't interested at the time.,It's an elective course.,I've listened to it a few times.,Purely to watch anime.,I can understand some words.,But it's not particularly good.,But there's this foundation.,After checking it on the Internet.,It's always better than people who don't have any foundation.,No need for others to translate.,The general meaning of this passage is almost clear.ć
Snake Lin glanced at the translator on the computer, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Zhang, you can only see a few place names in this translation, it seems that it does mean that a thing is somewhere, I think it is better to find someone to help translate it, you have so many friends, there is no one worthy of trust?"
"That's right, I should have found someone to translate it, it's not a problem. Zhang Tianyuan looked at the words he translated, and the meaning was not smooth at all, and it was really more difficult to know what the meaning was in it with such words.
He was thinking about who he knew who could speak better Japanese, and that he could reassure him, when he was thinking about it, and there was a knock on the door of his room.
"Who is so annoying, I have hung a Do Not Disturb sign, and I actually came to knock on the door. When Zhang Tianyuan heard someone knocking on the door, his train of thought was disrupted, and he was naturally a little unhappy in his heart, but when he heard the knocking sound, he still covered the ivory mat with something, and then went to open the door.
"Brother Mao? Also, isn't this Xiao Shi? Why did you come to Naibidu? and also come to participate in the Jade Public Market?" Zhang Tianyuan opened the door and saw that Mao Shifa and Xiao Shi were standing outside the door, and he was a little surprised.
"What kind of jade public market am I participating in? I'm here to bring you this. As he spoke, Xiao Shi shoved a Japanese knife into Zhang Tianyuan's hand.
"What is this?" asked Zhang Tianyuan in confusion.
"That's right. Let me tell you, this knife was brought by Xiaoshi's grandfather together. Didn't he get to be asked to leave by one of his bosses? You said that it was a coincidence that Xiao Shi earned 9,000 US dollars yesterday, so he invited a friend to dinner, and when he mentioned this matter, he happened to meet the descendants of the original boss, and when the man heard that he was a good guy, a broken mat was sold for 9,000 US dollars, and he immediately ran back and brought the Japanese sword, saying that Xiao Shi must find a way to deal with it. Mao Shifa said excitedly.
"Japanese swords? "Zhang Tianyuan won a demon knife village rain on a gambling boat in Hong Kong last time. He didn't believe there was anything better than the knife.
"No, Boss Zhang, just take a look, just give some money. Xiao Shi smiled bitterly: "It's not easy for me to run this way." ā
Zhang Tianyuan casually took a look at the Japanese knife, and when he saw the position of the handle, he couldn't help but use the word appreciation trick, and actually saw that there was a piece of kraft paper inside the handle, which was folded neatly, and looked at the texture of the paper. It should be during the Anti-Japanese War, and now Zhang Tianyuan's earth qi is more sufficient, so the time for identifying a thing has become more accurate.
I saw that the kraft paper was actually left over from the Anti-Japanese War. I felt a little strange in my heart, this Japanese sword and the ivory mat were obtained by Xiao Shi's grandfather, and they were obtained from the same Japanese officer. This is enough to show what is the connection between the two.
Come to think of it. So he took the Japanese sword, and it was of good quality. It's still cold and shining, but compared to the demon knife village rain, the collection value is greatly reduced, Zhang Tianyuan really doesn't need to buy this thing, but considering the things in the handle, it's okay to buy it cheaper.
"I'll give you a hundred dollars at most, and I'll close the deal if I want, forget it if I don't, this kind of knife doesn't mean anything to me. Zhang Tianyuan said casually: "Xiaoshi, you must know that the price is still because you have worked hard to make a trip, otherwise, I don't want this thing to give it for nothing, this is not a treasure, how can it be compared with an ivory woven mat?"
"A hundred dollars is a hundred dollars, that grandson is short of money to spend now, a hundred dollars is a lot, that guy is a pure loser. Xiao Shi didn't want to offend Zhang Tianyuan, so he simply nodded and agreed.
After the two sides traded, Xiao Shi and Mao Shifa went to Zhang Tianyuan's room to sit for a while, drank a cup of tea and left, Mao Shifa said that he wanted to treat him and let Zhang Tianyuan and Snake Lin go together, but Zhang Tianyuan refused, saying that he had just eaten and was not hungry now.
After Xiao Shi and Mao Shifa left, Zhang Tianyuan hurriedly closed the door again, and then returned to the room, directly removed the handle of the knife, and took out a piece of brown paper from it.
"Brother, isn't this a drawing? It seems to be a map, I used to see it when I was training in the army, this kind of drawing should have been drawn during the War of Resistance Against Japan, look at the Japanese logo on it, you know that it should be drawn by the Japanese themselves, the kraft paper used here is very exquisite, the map is also very fine, it is definitely drawn by a high-level surveyor, Myanmar and China at that time, can not make such a good map. After looking at the paper that Zhang Tianyuan took out from the handle of the knife and spread out on the table, he said in surprise.
Zhang Tianyuan very much agrees with this statement of the snake lin, this is indeed a very fine drawing, ordinary people must not be able to draw, this is the effect achieved after a very fine measurement, in addition to the Japanese at that time, on this continent, there is really no one else who can draw such a good map, otherwise why would the anti-Japanese army be so happy after grabbing the map of the Japanese, such as the treasure, this is the reason.
"You're right, this is a map, and it seems to be a map of Myanmar, with not only Japanese markings, but also Burmese characters. ā
At this time, Zhang Tianyuan felt more and more that what Snake Lin said before made sense, maybe this thing could really be a treasure map, and among the materials captured by the Japanese army at that time, it was not only gold, but also a large number of precious cultural relics.
"Quick, translate the Japanese characters on the ivory mat and see if you can match the number with this drawing. The Japanese on this drawing has Burmese annotations, so you can understand it. Right?"
"Yes, I understand. But there's no hint on this drawing.,I have to find someone who understands Japanese to read those words.,Didn't we mention this just now.,I don't know many people.,Brother, you know a lot of people.ć ā
"By the way, you see my brain, I was just affected by Mao Shifa and Xiao Shiyi, and I forgot about it. I thought of someone who might be a good fit. ā
"Who?"
"My future wife! She's from Treasure Island. I've been to Japan many times before, so I think I can speak Japanese. Zhang Tianyuan smiled and said, "But what is it, I still have to call and ask to see what the situation is." ā
As he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan dialed Liu Mengxun's phone, and sure enough, Liu Mengxun not only knew Japanese, but also was very proficient, because there were many Japanese who went to Baodao to do business. She often has to deal with these Japanese people, and if she doesn't know a little Japanese, she definitely can't do it. This woman is very smart, and she just wanted to know two common phrases. It's easier to say hello, who would have thought that she would be proficient in learning as soon as she learns.
After getting the confirmation, Zhang Tianyun enlarged the string of words. took a photo and sent it over, after Liu Mengxun got the photo. Zhang Tianyuan waited first, and then went to translate. No matter how busy you are, since it is your boyfriend's request, then you should hurry up and finish it, you can't be with your boyfriend, this still has to be done, and listening to Zhang Tianyuan's tone, it seems that this matter is still very important, if you don't finish it quickly, then it is estimated that Zhang Tianyuan will be graded.
She was right, Zhang Tianyuan is really anxious now, although he has just figured out the meaning of many words, but he can't connect them into a sentence, it's a mess, this has to be a last resort, so he can only ask for help from his future wife.
He can let Serenin know about this matter, so it will be even more fine for Liu Mengxun to know, but he also reminded Liu Mengxun that he should try not to let others know or see this matter, because this Japanese text may involve a historical secret, or a treasure story.
On the other hand, Liu Mengxun watched it with a joke at first, thinking that it was a joke made by his boyfriend, just to make himself happy, but the more he watched it, the more shocked he became, and the expression on his face became complicated.
At this time, she was alone in the office, but she still stood up cautiously, walked to the door and told her secretary: "Don't let others in, just say that no one will disturb me during this time." ā
After speaking, Liu Mengxun returned to the office, closed the door from the inside, and then began to look at it again, for the content on the paper, the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became, the more she looked at it, the more incredulous, this is really a sealed history? Or is it the material that her boyfriend sincerely invited to tease herself?
However, the things recorded in the text are all conclusive, which really makes people a little afraid to doubt it.
After more than ten minutes, Liu Mengxun put down the photo in his hand, let out a long breath, and then dialed Zhang Tianyuan's phone number.
Zhang Tianyuan walked around the room nervously, and from time to time he went to see if his mobile phone was ringing, as if he was about to be judged at any time, Zhang Tianyuan felt as if his heart could jump out of his chest directly at any time.
The phone rang suddenly, and Zhang Tianyuan couldn't wait to press the answer button: "How is it? How is Mengmeng, how is the situation?
"Tian Yuan, tell me honestly, are you here to deliberately tease me, or are they really engraved on the antiques you found somewhere?" Liu Mengxun wanted to confirm.
"It sounds like you've already translated it, I'm not joking, this thing is engraved on a thing I received from the Burmese, I don't know Japanese, so I want you to translate it, what's going on, you're still so strict?" Zhang Tianyuan asked in wonder.
After Liu Mengxun heard Zhang Tianyuan's answer, he took a deep breath, and then said: "Tianyuan, this text records a story, and also mentions a map, saying that there is a treasure hidden somewhere on that map, you don't really have a map in your hand, right?"
"Yes, it's right next to me. ā
"Tian Yuan, you can listen well, that map is likely to be a treasure map, but I don't build yƬ you to look for it, this is something buried by the Japanese, maybe it's a chemical weapon, if something happens to you, I don't know what to do." Liu Mengxun told Zhang Tianyuan for safety reasons. (To be continued......)
