"Brother Liu, it's your turn."

Zhang Yang walked out of the carriage and gave the three people outside a bright smile.

He was in a good mood, because the contents of the carriage tasted so right.

If you want to know what you will find in Egypt, you can get the most detailed answer by taking a walk around this carriage.

"How?" Captain Liu asked pointedly.

"Just check it out." Zhang Yang smiled and didn't explain much.

He believed that Captain Liu, as an old criminal policeman who often dealt with tomb robbers, would definitely be able to see that the source of the things in it was irregular.

Either it is the stolen goods of the tomb robbery, or the stolen goods from the tomb robbery in the museum.

The essence is no different, except that the latter has an extra middleman.

But should you put a long line to catch a big fish?

This kind of thing should be left to the police to have a headache.

Zhang Yang has other things to do that he is more interested in, such as seeing what a mummy in its original state looks like.

When Captain Liu went in to "investigate", Boss Mo asked a little impatiently:

"Director Zhang, how do you feel?"

"My collection, can you still see it?"

"That's it, so-so." Zhang Yang replied a little lightly.

"The whole carriage, just the wooden coffins of the two mummies at your door, I look at it and it is worth a little money. It's just a pity that the paint on it is almost falling off. ”

"It's a bit exaggerated to carry such a big carriage and just pack this little thing."

"Haha, there's one or two things that you can see, Curator Zhang."

Boss Mo smiled charmingly, and didn't explain much, as if Zhang Yang was right by default.

Zhang Yang was a little surprised by her reaction.

Can't you hear me suggesting that you have a problem with other antiques?

Why don't you refute it?

However, Zhang Yang soon woke up to the fact that this female boss may not be an ordinary antique dealer like Ding Fatzi.

Although there was still a carriage of things that she hadn't seen, she could deduce from the antiques just now that they had a very reliable source, and she was also well aware of the quality of her collection.

In other words, it's not that simple to trick her.

Zhang Yang decided to think differently.

"Anyway, I see that your mummified coffins don't seem to have been opened."

"It's hard to buy such a baby, right?"

"Director Zhang is really eye-catching. These two wooden coffins are indeed in their original state, they have not been opened, and it took me a lot of energy to get them. ”

"You really haven't opened it?" Zhang Yang pretended to be surprised and said: "That's great! ”

"Lao He, in recent years, has Linhai held an exhibition of Egyptian cultural relics?"

"I don't have the same mind." Librarian He shook his head and recalled: "On our side, there are very few exhibitions of exotic cultures, and we usually go to nearby Lin'an or Shenghai, and there may be no soil for the spread of this kind of culture." ”

"Boss Mo, listen, there's no soil!" Zhang Yang spread his hands and made a helpless expression.

"It's not a big deal, I'll just buy some press releases when the time comes."

"Curator, you should also know that our sales channel is for buyers all over the country. Many buyers will only search for relevant information online, and will not look at it offline. ”

What this woman means is that as long as the exhibition is held, the Ey Art Museum will be a large art company that "has experience in working with museums".

When the time comes, when the art museum sells fakes, let the buyers search the news on the Internet themselves, and they will immediately gain the trust of the other party.

"Do you want to buy the draft?" Zhang Yang was thoughtful, but immediately shook his head: "There's no need to waste this money. ”

"I have an idea to raise the heat to the maximum."

"Oh? Director Zhang, please speak. Boss Mo smiled and made a gesture of please.

"It's actually very simple, it's enough to open the coffin of those two mummies in the live broadcast."

"Open the coffin?" The smile on Boss Mo's face gradually disappeared.

"yes, don't you think it's going to look good when the mummy opens the coffin?" Zhang Yang asked.

Seeing that the woman didn't respond, he asked Librarian He again:

"Lao He, what do you think of this idea? Is it shocking enough? ”

"Pretty impressive." Librarian He nodded and replied: "Anyway, if I see somewhere in the live broadcast of the coffin mummy, I will definitely squat in the live broadcast room to watch the whole thing." ”

"And I will notify other colleagues in the museum in the group to watch the excitement together."

"Hehe, I'll definitely send a live broadcast notification in the group." Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Our museum can also take this opportunity to show off." ”

Looking at the two people in the Hailin Museum, they were already imagining the picture of the mummy opening the coffin, and Boss Mo's face became serious.

She coughed lightly to attract the attention of the two, and then told Zhang Yang and the two:

"This mummy can't open the coffin."

"Why?"

"Because opening the coffin will destroy the artifacts inside."

Hearing this reason, Zhang Yang smiled.

Are you still worried about this, Boss Mo?

But since the other party is making such an excuse, Zhang Yang of course wants to block her words.

"I remember that even the archaeological team in Egypt, after they found a wooden coffin, they would open it at the end, right?"

"But they're an archaeological team, very professional!"

"It's okay, I know more professional people." Zhang Yang smiled and said: "Don't worry about the connections, I can find people from the provincial museum and even the national museum." ”

"Give them the opportunity to open the coffin, and maybe they can get a free event platform for the exhibition."

"That's not going to work......"

"Director Zhang, I will cooperate with you to organize an exhibition, and I will pay you."

Boss Mo said very resolutely:

"So, you can do what we ask, and you don't have to open the coffin. Even if the effect of the activity is not good, we admit it. ”

"That's not going to work!"

Zhang Yang waved his hand, and his attitude was more resolute:

"Everyone on the road knows that our Hailin Museum is the leader of the antique gray industry in Linhai, and it's a joke to hold an event?"

"Well, we'll give you money, and the coffin must be opened. You make an offer! ”

Boss Mo was stupid when he heard it.

I'm here to send money, why does the other party still have to post the money?

Is this the business of the Hailin Museum, it's terrifying.

But she really couldn't say yes.

"Curator, let's be honest with you. These two wooden coffins, they weren't auctioned. ”

"I know, there is a wooden coffin with contents inside, which auction house dares to auction it!"

Regarding Boss Mo's remarks, Zhang Yang had already expected it, and it was not surprising at all.

He was curious about how the other party would explain this reasonably.

"Since you know, you should be able to understand, if you let the outside world know that there are mummies in this wooden coffin, then the people from the Egyptian cultural relics department will definitely come to the door across the country."

"Is that an exaggeration? I see a lot of videos of mummies unboxing on the Internet. ”

"Not an exaggeration." Boss Mo replied very seriously: "I am Egyptian, and I am sure that there will be serious consequences." ”

"In Cairo, almost all Egyptians condemn the tomb robbers, believing that they collaborated with the Europeans to give away thousands of years of ancient Egyptian artifacts to the robbers......"

According to Boss Mo's popular science, there are more than 100,000 Egyptian artifacts in the British Museum, more than 50,000 in the Louvre, and more than 20,000 in the Metropolitan Museum in New York.

The mummy's storage rooms in these museums resemble huge morgues.

And all this is because there are "Egyptian traitors" who are in the same stream as the Europeans.

Boss Mo was afraid that he would be labeled like this.

In addition to the historical factor, according to her, the opening of the mummy coffin itself is one of the acts of "humiliation".

Because in the 19th century, mummies were the best-selling European goods in Egypt, and one of them was an important use, that is, at parties, for European nobles to "open blind boxes".

There are usually a lot of amulets in the wooden coffin, and after the blind box is opened, the amulets will be distributed to the men and women attending the party as souvenirs.

"Director Zhang, just think about it."

"How would you feel if a roll of Qin Jian fell into the hands of the British, and they took apart the bamboo strips at the party and used them as souvenirs for everyone present?"

"Actually, I don't feel anything special."

Zhang Yang shrugged and said:

"It's too normal for the British to do such stupid things, not to mention cultural relics, pigs will chrysanthemum when they see them."

He knew that Boss Mo was trying to say that opening the coffin would make it easy for the Egyptians to break their defenses.

But these words, coming out of the mouth of an antiquities dealer, are somewhat dark humorous.

Not to mention that Zhang Yang faintly felt that there were some cultural relics in the carriage, which were treasures taken out of the blind box after opening the box once.

"Since Boss Mo you don't want to, then we ......"

"Forget it?" Boss Mo asked in surprise.

"Then let's open the coffin privately." Zhang Yang said thoughtfully.

"No, Director Zhang, does the mummy have a grudge against you? Must open the coffin? "Boss Mo was a little puzzled.

"There's no grudge, but I'm really curious." Zhang Yang said very sincerely: "You know, I have a lot of research on African culture, and I will inevitably have an archaeological dream. ”

"This ......"

Boss Mo looked at Librarian He with a little headache, hoping that this acquaintance could help talk.

But the latter, on the contrary, expressed confusion about her behavior:

"You said that the opening of the coffin can't be broadcast live, our curator has already expressed his understanding of this matter, but why can't he do it in private?"

"Won't you just open a box? We don't want the contents of the contents, so it would be nice to read the seal. ”

"Ugh." Boss Mo let out a long sigh.

Her eyes drifted to the carriage where Captain Liu had entered just now, and stayed on the outermost two mummies, looking a little helpless.

"Then let's go, but ......"

Before he finished unboxing, Captain Liu suddenly appeared at the entrance of the passage.

He was holding an antique in a glass frame in his hand, and the expression on his face was a little subtle.

“…… Mr. Liu, what are you doing here? ”

Seeing that someone had taken out the things in the warehouse without asking him, Boss Mo's face changed instantly.

"If you want to get something out, you have to at least ask my opinion, right?"

Hearing this, Captain Liu smiled contemptuously and said:

"What, you're not convinced?"

"Huh? What do you mean? …… Curator Zhang, what does he want? ”

Boss Mo turned his head to look at Zhang Yang, hoping that he would give an explanation.

Zhang Yang shook his head ignorantly and told the other party:

"I don't know him, who is this man?"

"Isn't he Mr. Liu who came with the two of you? An expert in African culture. ”

"Then you might be mistaken. Among the people I know, the surname is Liu, and there is only one captain of the criminal police team. ”

"Interpol team?"

A frightened expression appeared on Boss Mo's face, but he quickly calmed down.

She looked at Zhang Yang, and then at Captain Liu, who got out of the car with antiques, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face:

"It turns out that Mr. Liu is a policeman, it's nice to meet you."

"Are you interested in this papyrus book from the 21st Dynasty? Then just take it. It is an honour to receive your recognition of my collection. ”

Papyrus book, just given away for nothing?

Zhang Yang was a little shocked.

The papyrus book in Captain Liu's hand, inlaid in a glass frame, he had read it carefully in the carriage.

Like the Shroud, the papyrus is written in the Book of the Dead.

Although this thing is not as rare as the shroud, in the European auction market, it is often sold for hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of euros.

Just send it out as hush money?

"What, Boss Mo, in fact, I also have a hidden identity."

Zhang Yang wants to blow himself up a little, if nothing else, it shouldn't be too much to let the other party give him a set of mummies, right?

"Huh? Curator: Are you also a police officer? ”

Boss Mo's heart, which had just calmed down, panicked again.

She couldn't help but look at Librarian He and thought: Then is this Mr. He a policeman?

It's not going to be full of cops outside!

"Don't be so stuck in your profession." Zhang Yang pouted and said: "I'm the director of a museum, and my voice in matters related to cultural relics may not be weak?" ”

"Besides, you have to pay hush money, of course, the seeker has a share......"

"Alright, don't make a fuss." Captain Liu walked up to a few people and interrupted Zhang Yang.

He turned the papyrus book over, with the glass side down, and handed it to Zhang Yang:

"Look at the English on the back, isn't it the museum in New York?"

Zhang Yang looked in the direction of Captain Liu's finger, and on the back of the frame, there was blue English handwriting.

He nodded and responded, "It's indeed from Xinxiang." ”

"Boss Mo, did you get this from the museum?"

The woman didn't speak, and in Zhang Yang's opinion, this was a tacit acquiescence.

He said with some regret:

"It's a pity, I thought you were the Egyptian branch of Captain Touching."

Of the four ancient civilizations, only Egypt and China have a prevalent tomb robbery culture.

The pharaohs of ancient Egypt did not have a strong sense of anti-theft, and some of them were led by the stonemasons who built the tombs to rob the tombs not long after they were buried.

In modern times, the number of tomb robbers in Egypt is staggering, and they can even make up an entire village, all of which are tomb robbers.

"What is Captain Touch?"

Boss Mo obviously didn't have a deep grasp of Chinese culture, and she looked at Zhang Yang with a puzzled expression:

"If I were Captain Touch, wouldn't I be under the control of your police?"

"I can only tell you that Captain Touching Jin is a position set up by Cao Cao, and they go in and out of the ancient tomb as if they are going home." Zhang Yang explained.

"Cao Cao, you know, right? It's the one of the good women. ”

"I know him, and there is a person from a beautiful country who has this name." Boss Mo nodded and replied, "Then my uncle is Captain Touching, he knows the internal structure of the pyramid well, and entering the pharaoh's mausoleum is like going home." ”

"Police Liu, you can't control me. But I'm still willing to give you this papyrus. ”

"What do you think?" Captain Liu was a little speechless: "What I caught was Captain Touching." ”
