Chapter 407: The Scene of Chaos

These statues are not as horrific as the pyramid, but they are still shocking.

In the photo, there are forty statues more than two meters high, reflecting the golden light in the clear water, even if it is a photo, these reporters can't help but squint their eyes.

There was another ghost crying wolf howl at the scene.

A pyramid suspected to be made of gold is shocking enough, but what if you add these forty gold statues?

This is definitely a treasure that rivals the riches of the country!

By this time, it didn't matter whether the temple was a 600-year-old temple of Indian sacrifice or not, and the value represented by the pyramid and the forty gold statues had far exceeded the value of 600 years of history.

No one can remain calm in the face of such a treasure, not even these battle-hardened journalists.

However, Lin Dan and Mrs. Bruce still ignored the reporters who were anxious to ask questions, and instead showed aside some photos of the temple in a hurry, and Mrs. Bruce also explained the photos.

Those reporters are in a hurry, and you can't help it if people ignore you, right?

Lin Dan and Mrs. Bruce's calm performance also made some extremely experienced old reporters feel that something was wrong, and they began to reflect on this matter in their hearts.

Obviously, if this treasure is really rich and rivals, then as the person who discovered this treasure, how could he just directly announce this treasure to the public?

Therefore, those reporters who calmed down and reflected, immediately realized that the pyramids and gold statues that appeared in this sacrificial temple did not seem to be what they imagined.

Some experienced reporters began to slowly calm down, waiting for the two people sitting on the stage to be named.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Bruce finished introducing the photos, Lin Dan reached out and pointed out a reporter, who was a veteran reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle.

"Hello, I'm Daum Jonathan, a reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle. May I ask Mrs. Bruce or Mr. Lin, are all of the things shown in the photo just now, including the pyramid and the golden statues, made of pure gold?"

Daum Jonathan's question immediately put the crowd in a frenzied mood to rest. Yes, no matter how impressive the things in the photos are, no one knows if they are made of gold or not.

Mrs. Bruce smiled and motioned for Lin Dan to answer this question, and Lin Dan nodded and said, "Actually, when I first discovered the pyramid and the forty statues that were submerged by the sea, I was in the same mood as you, that is, I was in disbelief. ”

Lin Dan made an exaggerated expression, "Can you imagine how fast your heart beats if you see a pyramid made of gold and dozens of gold statues with your own eyes?" Lin Dan pointed to his chest, and then pointed to these reporters, "Just now you were about to go crazy just by seeing the photos, I think you can understand how I felt when I saw these things with my own eyes." ”

The reporters below were in an uproar again, although Lin Dan did not announce the real results, but the tone was ......

"Some time ago I met an old fortune teller in San Francisco's Chinatown, and he told me that I was going to encounter a very wonderful thing recently, very, very strange, but in the end it was just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water. I didn't know what the old gentleman's words portended, but it wasn't until yesterday that I finally understood what the old gentleman was talking about. ”

"As much as I would love to have a treasure that rivals the riches of the country, that is obviously unlikely. When my partner and I entered the sacrificial temple yesterday and saw the pyramid and the gold statues, honestly, I thought I was going to be the richest man in the world! Damn, you probably can't imagine the excitement you felt when you learned that you were about to get a sum of more than 2,000 tons of gold. I'll admit that I was excited, but alas, I was just having a good time. ”

As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar again, and a reporter even ignored the rules of the press conference and shouted: "Aren't the pyramids and statues made of gold?"

As soon as this question came out, the audience suddenly fell silent again.

Lin Dan shook his head helplessly and said: "In the future, if anyone asks questions directly without naming him, I will disqualify him from participating in this press conference, and I will not take it as an example! But it seems that everyone wants to know this result, then I won't talk nonsense, I'm afraid that if I keep talking, you will beat me in a while." ”

The audience burst into laughter.

"Yes, this pyramid and the forty statues are not made of pure gold. To be precise, the Indians who built this sacrificial temple at that time played a big joke on us. The pyramid and the forty statues, all of them were made of stone, and the outside was only plated with a thin layer of gold......"

A loud sigh came together again.

Although many reporters have already guessed it, after this result was announced by Lin Dan himself, these people couldn't help but sigh.

"You don't have to feel sorry, if these things were really made of pure gold, I'm afraid you wouldn't have gotten this news so quickly......

There was a small burst of laughter from the audience again.

"Mr. Lin is right, at first we archaeologists were also shocked by this pyramid and the forty gold statues, but unfortunately, these things are not made of pure gold. These are all stones, and the outside is only wrapped in a layer of gold about two millimeters thick, according to our research, this should be the Indians who melted the gold and poured it on it, and then the current situation will be formed. Mrs. Bruce picked up the conversation and confirmed the news once and for all.

Mrs. Bruce's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on these reporters, and they remembered what the topic of today's press conference was. It was a press conference about a 600-year-old temple of Indian sacrifice, not a priceless treasure.

The order of the scene soon returned to the original order.

"Hello Mr. Lin, I'm Julia Logan of Yahoo News, and I would like to ask Mr. Lin, according to the relevant laws of the United States, the ownership of this sacrificial temple found under your private residence belongs to you. But obviously, this temple is of great importance to the Indians of the Bay Area, and what are you going to do if the Indians of the Bay Area demand that the temple be repossessed?"

The female reporter from Yahoo News once again hit the nail on the head and asked another key point, and the reporters in the audience immediately fell silent, quietly waiting for Lin Dan's answer.

Although the temple lost its value after the loss of the gimmick of the golden pyramid and the golden statue, it is still a 600-year-old sacrificial temple. Besides, the pyramid in this sacrificial temple and the statues, even if they are only wrapped in a layer of gold, are not low, not to mention that these things have extremely high archaeological value.

Moreover, for the Indians, this ancestral sacrificial temple has a supreme position in their minds, and with the current status of the Indians in the United States, it will be a very troublesome thing for them to really apply to return to this sacrificial temple.

The United States slaughtered Indians frantically hundreds of years ago, and now it may feel a little sorry for these Indians, so in recent decades, the U.S. government's care for Indians has become more and more obvious. At the same time, there is also an increasing emphasis on the inheritance and culture of the Indians, and if the local Indians in the Bay Area ask the temple discoverer to return the temple, it will definitely be a very difficult lawsuit.

The reporters were also happy to see what the lucky man who discovered the sacrificial temple would do about it.

Lin Dan smiled slightly, "Miss Logan, this is a good question you asked. In fact, after discovering this sacrificial temple, I realized that I might soon encounter the question you just asked. ”

After a pause, Lin Dan pointed at Mrs. Bruce very respectfully, "Fortunately, I was fortunate to invite Mrs. Bruce, she is an expert in Indian culture, she gave me very good advice, and I myself think it is very good, so I plan to deal with this matter according to Mrs. Bruce's suggestion." ”

Some of the reporters below are rolling their eyes, and the meaning is very clear, do you dare to be a little more verbose? Be careful of being beaten!

"Actually, it should be very simple to deal with this. Lin Dan raised his voice, "I have only bought this house for more than half a year, and I don't usually live here, and now I find that there is a big cave under this house, so I am even more worried about the safety of this house." As you all know, the Bay Area is an earthquake-prone area, what would you think if you learned that there was a big hole in the ground of your house?"

"So, I'm going to sell this house!" Lin Dan said after looking at the reporters.

There was a little bit of a stir at the scene again. The female reporter who asked the question just now raised her hand again, Lin Dan nodded, and she immediately asked, "Do you want to sell this sacrificial temple with you?"

"Of course. Lin Dan smiled slightly, "Legally speaking, I am now the owner of this house and this sacrificial temple, and I have the right to sell this place." However, for the sake of the Bay Area Indians, I would rather meet with the Bay Area Indian leaders in person, and I hope they will be able to buy this house and this sacrificial temple at a good price. I think they should be happy to talk to me in person when they see this news. ”

The scene was chaotic again......
