Chapter 238: Rommel's Ring
"You don't have to entertain me, I'm just here to walk around this time."
Wu Tianyuan looked at the increasingly domineering polar bear with a smile, and quipped: "How do you feel now as the first person in the Asian black market?" ”
"Hahaha, one word, cool!"
Polar bear Chunfeng said proudly: "In the past, there was always an old man who pressed and restrained his hands and feet, but now the sea and the sky are wide, we can make great achievements!" ”
He poured wine for Wu Tianyuan and said gratefully: "Thanks to your help this time, things can go so smoothly." Not only did Joseph get it, but there were also two gold transactions, which made me stand firm all of a sudden, and some people who were originally on the sidelines also took the initiative to surrender, and the money is really a good thing! ”
Wu Tianyuan nodded, now everyone is cooperating happily, he can deal with antiques, but gold is really not easy to handle. With the polar bear's way, it's just a phone call away.
"Everyone earns money, cheers!"
The two chatted for more than an hour, and Wu Tianyuan also said that the next step was to let the polar bear cooperate with the acquisition of some oil paintings and sculptures, as long as it was expressive, whether it was a celebrity or not, they would hoard it at a low price, and there would be a chance to hype it up in the future.
After listening to Wu Tianyuan's plan, the polar bear was even more excited, he didn't expect Wu Tianyuan's network of contacts to be so strong! This good thing with a lot of profits is absolutely indispensable to him, zero risk, several times or even more than ten times the profiteering, better than anything else.
"You're saying that part of the Amber Hall was transported by the Germans to the abandoned mines in Thuringia?"
The group came to Thuringia, and the Tsar's Ring provided clues that there were a number of treasures left over from the past, and sure enough, three large treasure chests were found in an abandoned mine.
"Tsar III's jeweled scepter again?"
Wu Tianyuan said with a smile, Lao Maozi has no taste, it is all gems and gold, without any cultural connotation, it is not interesting!
Just when Wu Tianyuan was a little disappointed, and just after contacting Ivanov for tomorrow's exchange, he suddenly heard a voice, and found a gold ring from the crack of the box, and there was a special mark on it.
"You are the Ring of Rommel?"
Wu Tianyuan was excited, and after the exchange, it turned out to be the belongings of the German general Rommel! Field Marshal of Nazi Germany, a famous military strategist, tactician, and theorist, nicknamed "Desert Fox, Imperial Eagle". Rommel, along with Manstein and Guderian, is known as the three famous generals of Nazi Germany during World War II
Among the brilliant generals of the Second World War, Rommel was the only one who was able to achieve fame during his lifetime and many honors after his death, especially when he was recognized by both hostile sides.
The evaluation of him has gradually become polarized, and those who support him call him the Nazi god of war, and his brilliant military qualities and excellent tactical command skills have been respected by many military enthusiasts, and even by famous military strategists.
Opponents called him a "tactical giant, a strategic dwarf" based on his strategic blunders, and he was also called the "World War II arsonist".
Where are Rommel's treasures? Is it some hill in the deserted Sahara Desert, or is the port of Bastia facing the bottom of the ocean in front of a bombed-out mosque? Or in a temple in Italy? Rommel is known as the "Desert Fox", he has been dead for many years, and people still don't know what he treasures.
The desert fox plundered the indigenous riches of North Africa, especially the wealthy Arab sheikhs, and Rommel was killed if they showed the slightest refusal to support the Nazi cause.
In a short period of time, Rommel amassed a collection of treasures of great value, including more than 90 wooden coffins filled with yellow gold coins and curiosities, and a steel box filled with diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and sapphires. Huang Cancan's gold coins and various curiosities were packed in more than 90 wooden boxes, and diamonds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires were packed into a steel box.
In particular, the treasure of the steel box was so valuable that even Rommel, the owner of the treasure, could not figure out how much it was worth. These treasures were not only used by Rommel to squander, but also to buy off a few Arab rulers.
No matter how much Romelo squandered, he only used a very small part of these treasures. As the tide of battle progressed, Rommel's vaunted invincibility of the Afrika Korps collapsed on all fronts. In order to prevent these treasures from falling into the hands of the British and American forces, Rommel secretly mobilized a group of cronies to hide these treasures in an unknown corner of the world.
In 1944, when Germany was in the twilight of its life, some high-ranking officers of the German army plotted to assassinate Hitler, which involved Rommel. On October 14, Hitler sent someone to Rommel's residence to ask Rommel to consider whether to stand trial or commit suicide by poisoning.
Rommel chose the latter, and 15 minutes later, Rommel was born. As soon as Rommel died, the only clue to the whereabouts, directions, and signs of the treasures was cut off.
According to data research, on the eve of the collapse of Rommel's Afrika Korps, he mobilized a force of high-speed Chengtuo speedboats, ordered more than 90 boxes of treasures to be packed in boats, and transported across the Mediterranean to a secret place in southern Italy. One night, the speedboat unit secretly set sail under the cover of night and acted according to the predetermined plan.
Unexpectedly, at dawn, the speedboat unit was discovered by the British Air Force. It turned out that the British intelligence services had been closely watching the whereabouts of these treasures for a long time. In addition to dispatching a large number of ground agents, the British intelligence department also mobilized planes and ships to conduct reconnaissance in the air and at sea day and night, and was ready to intercept them at any time. Rommel was always scheming, and in the end there were times when he miscalculated.
When the British discovered the ghostly German motorboat, they decided that the treasure was among them, and ordered it to be intercepted from the air and at all costs. By the time the speedboats reached the waters near Corsica, the Germans knew they had no hope of breaking through the British net. In desperation, Rommel ordered all the speedboats to be blown up. This was the case when the German motorboat unit, laden with treasures, sank in the shallow waters of Corsica.
Late at night on 8 March, under the watchful eye of Rommel and his cronies, the treasures were packed into 15 to 20 military trucks, and the convoy was escorted by Colonel Hans to stop overnight in a small town on the edge of the Sahara Desert.
After the car drove to Douz, there was a large desert in front of it, and it was impossible to drive. Hans bought sixty or seventy camels, packed them on them, and set foot in the Sahara Desert on March 10.
The caravan trekked through the desert for two days, and finally buried the treasure under tens of thousands of indistinguishable sand dunes according to the plan. On the way back to Douz, the German detachment responsible for escorting the buried treasure was unexpectedly ambushed by the British and all the detachments were killed.
Wu Tianyuan was satisfied with putting Rommel's ring on his left hand, and now there are the Ring of Conquest, the Ring of the Brave, the Tsar's Ring, and Rommel's Ring! Looking at the four low-key rings, who can imagine the huge wealth hidden behind them?
The next day, Ivanov arrived as promised, and after identifying all the treasures, he took out a lotus petal dragon pattern bowl from Ru kiln, with the word Cai. There is also a brother kiln plum blossom pen wash, the official word.
"Dear Wu, these two are the only two Song Dynasty treasures in our museum, hey!"
Wu Tianyuan looked at the other party's heartache happily, and said with a smile: "Didn't you also get the Tsar's treasure?" And Mi Fu's moss stream poems, and Zhao Mengfu's Luo Shen Fu? ”
Ivanov glanced at Wu Tianyuan resentfully, and reluctantly took out two handscrolls, he is now in pain and love, and every time he receives a call from Wu Tianyuan, he is very contradictory.
Wu Tianyuan looked at the two treasures with satisfaction, Mi Fu has three in his hand, and Zhao Mengfu's Luo Shen Fu is also a unique product.
"Luo Shen Fu" is a famous poem written by Cao Zhi, a writer of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period of China. Cao Zhi imitated the description of the goddess of Wushan in Song Yu's "Goddess Fu" of the Chu State during the Warring States Period, and recounted the story of his encounter with Luoshen by the Luoshui River.
There are many references to Song Fu in the storyline and character description. This fu fictionalizes the author's own encounter with Luo Shen and the longing and love between each other, the image of Luo Shen is beautiful, and the love of man and god is ethereal and blurry, but it cannot be combined due to the difference between man and God, and finally expresses infinite sadness and melancholy.
