Looking for Savar, it is because he is the head of the land here, and he is familiar with the actual situation in the Sultan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and this person has a little power in his hands, and can play the role of an intermediary between the top level of Sudan.

In the end, Savar is obviously poor, loves money, and is still a person who can do things for himself seriously if he gives a small benefit.

The people soon arrived at the camp, and when they heard Zhang Nan's intention to find him, Saval said: "If you want to find the nearest place where you can send international faxes, let me think about it......

Instead of going to Khartoum, go a hundred kilometers north to Atbara. The railroad administration there can send international faxes, and I have acquaintances there. ”

Atbara, which is on the map, is also a decent city in the Sultan.

The population will be 70,000 or 80,000, and I heard Sawar say that although the population there is not much, because it is an important railway hub in Sudan, connecting Khartoum, Wadi Halfa and Port Sudan, road transportation is also developed, and there is even an air station.

Because Atbara has to send international trains and connects Port Sudan, the railway has long since opened international long-distance telephone and fax services.

Special note: Those communication equipment can be used, not broken.

It's a good thing to be able to solve the trouble for Mr. Allen, at least not in vain.

Wall Street financial giants looking for your help, will you help in vain?

There was no need for Savar to go to the train station seven or eight kilometers away to make a call, Zhang Nan directly asked him to use the satellite phone to contact Atbara's acquaintances, and this solved the fax matter.

However, Zhang Nan did not expect it wrong, except in Khartoum, there is no other place in the whole Sudan where color photos can be printed, and the matter of sending photos and faxes to Nong Bosheng can only wait.

It is no wonder that the Sultan is lagging behind in photo printing, and the current China is not much better. This will be in the hometown of Yanxian County, in the photo studio, which can receive the business of processing and printing color photos, but it will take many days to pick it up: the film will be mailed to Hangzhou for processing, and the county photo studio does not have that kind of "advanced" equipment at all.

Putting aside the photo in advance, Zhang Nan rubbed the inscription and outline diagram of the ding with wax paper. I didn't know if the fax machine at the train station was a regular model or a scanner type, so I simply rubbed a copy on white paper and pencil.

Savar went to the higher officials to take a half-day off, and then accompanied Lin Man and Jin Wenbo to drive to Atbara.

The sultans who were in charge were still squatting in the tomb, hoping that the huge coffin in the tomb would begin to be opened later today, and at the latest, tomorrow.

He was arguing with William Brin and didn't care about Savar's temporary departure.

If everything goes well, Zhang Nan will be able to know the content of the inscription in more than two hours.

As for this, wait.

chatted with Guan Xingquan about chatting with Nong Bosheng, and then went to the tomb to have a look.

William was speeding up the mapping of the burial chamber, intending to clean the burial goods inside tomorrow and gradually open the huge coffin by the day after tomorrow at the latest.

If there is no copper tripod, Zhang Nan will plan to leave Sudan in a day or two, but this will be, wait for a big man to come.

The day after tomorrow, Mr. President of Sudan will come to the Pyramid Mausoleum area, and I can talk to him about investing in oil in Sudan and borrowing copper tripods to exhibit in the United States.

He and Sudanese officials casually expressed their intention to invest in oil, hoping to talk to Mr. President about this issue in person. And then......

With the professional ethics of a good employee, Thomas found Zhang Nan after returning to the camp.

"Boss, this... Now does not seem like a good time to invest in the oil industry, especially in Sudan. ”

"Thomas, I'm sorry I forgot to talk to everyone first. That's an excuse. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the copper tripod placed on a table, "I want to take it to the United States for the time being." ”

Thomas was puzzled, but still said, "Boss, you don't have to be embarrassed. It's ......"

Yes, Zhang Nan is the boss, and there is no need to greet the people below in advance to make this kind of decision, and this decision is not the business of "United Forces" that Thomas is directly responsible for.

Thomas said half of his words, but he didn't say it in the second half, but Zhang Nan could understand: Playing a president as a monkey for the sake of a cultural relic, even if it is a president of a country that does not enter the stream, this seems to be a thankless move and a bit of a loss of identity.

"Thomas, I understand your good intentions, but it doesn't matter if the fake becomes true, it's a big deal to spend some money to enclose a piece of land and get a mining right for decades, anyway, oil won't run in the ground. ”

Since what the boss said, Thomas also kept silent.

Just like Zhang Nan said, oil won't run in the field, and it seems that there is no loss by throwing a little money to fool the president.

Thomas still thought wrong, Zhang Nan really didn't take the Sudanese president seriously.

An African president who is about to be ousted will be nothing in a few months, and it is still unknown whether he will be able to hold on to his life.

I will not invest a penny in the current government of Sudan now, and even if I want to hoard oil in southern Sudan, I will have to wait until after the military coup in Sudan this year.

Nearly three hours later, the fax had reached the Yongcheng Exhibition Hall for about half an hour: after receiving a call from Jin Wenbo, Zhang Nan called Nong Bosheng again.

“...... It is said that the tripod was cast in the 39th year of King Wu of Chu, that is, in 702 BC, but it was a gift to the country of Ba to commemorate the destruction of the country by the alliance of the two countries. ”

"It's the country of Lu, the first voice. ”

Nong Bosheng's voice came from the other end of the phone, correcting Zhang Nan's mistake in understanding the literal.

"Yukoku?"

I haven't heard of it, but I don't bother with it for now.

Zhang Nan of Pakistan knows that in the Spring and Autumn Period, it can be regarded as a big and powerful country in the southwest region. Of course, it is natural that it is also considered by the Central Plains countries to be surrounding barbarians.

It is said that it was one of the 71 vassal states divided in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, but in fact, the number of countries destroyed in the Spring and Autumn Period far exceeded this number, and the number of feudal states did not need to be studied deeply.

The historical records of later generations recorded that the Ba clan was named a sub-country, and the leader was the Ji surname clan, the viscount, so it was called Ba Ziguo, usually referred to as Ba Guo.

The territory of Pakistan is roughly in the whole territory of the mountain city, north to the upper reaches of the Han River in southern Shaanxi, the northern edge of Daba Mountain, east to Xiangyang, and the land area of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty expanded on a large scale in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The bronze tripod inscription records a historical event, and you can also find some similar records in the history books: in the thirty-eighth year of King Wu of Chu, that is, in 703 BC, the state of Ba hoped to make friends with the state of Deng through the state of Chu.

The state of Chu sent the doctor Daoshuo to bring the envoy Hanfu of the Ba State to the Deng State, but was attacked by the people of the Yan State in the south of the Deng State, the property was plundered, and Daoshuo and others were killed.

This was repaid, and the king of Chu Wu was furious when he heard the news, and sent the general Dou Lian to lead the combined army of Chu and Ba to attack the state of Yan.

However, because the state of Lu and the state of Deng were each other's in-laws, the original goal of good relations was that the state of Deng sent his nephew and nephew to lead the army to aid the state of Shan, and the four countries were in an alliance, and the famous "Battle of Chuba and Deng" broke out.

After three battles, the Chuba coalition army attacked back and forth, defeated the Deng State and destroyed the Lu State.

The first half of the copper tripod recorded this incident, to the effect that last year, that is, the 38th year of the Wu King of our Chu State, the combined forces of our Chu State and the Ba State defeated the Deng army......

The second half is nonsense such as Chu and Pakistan being allies forever, and it also said that the whole set of rituals was given to Pakistan.

There is more than just a ding, and there are obviously other objects as well.

"Can you still send Ding?"

Zhang Nan asked.

Dingdingding, can this thing be given as a gift?

"Pakistan will not have to return a set. ”

Nong Bosheng replied more simply, but it was equivalent to not saying: there is no proof of unearthed cultural relics.

Moreover, a larger question arises, one that may never be answered: how did this tripod travel from Pakistan in southwest China to Kush in North Africa in the next two hundred years!

Zhang Nan was a little entangled in his heart, but Nong Bosheng thought clearly and saw through it.

"Two thousand six or seven hundred years ago, no one can fully understand it, let alone Pakistan, which has very few historical records, and the two or three hundred years of exchanges between the East and the West that are completely unrecorded.

I said Xiao Zhang, don't think too much about things you don't understand, otherwise you will be too busy not to say anything, and you will become one of those rogue experts who think that they are academic authorities all day long, but in fact, they have 1 point of evidence and 99 copies of it are supplemented by guessing...... I can't do it. ”

The history of China in BC is understood by the unearthed gold inscriptions and the pitiful records of bamboo slips, plus a few historical books.

We can know a little bit about the big things, but more of them are just fragments of history, too far ago.

Even many of the countries that existed at the beginning were only known after a certain tomb was unearthed, not to mention the whereabouts of a copper tripod owned by Pakistan, which is surrounded almost on all sides by powerful neighbors.

No one has yet cracked the Ba script, and from the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the destruction of the Qin State in 316 BC, that country has been at war.

There is the Qin State in the north, the feud Shu State in the west, and the relationship with the Chu State is also good and bad, the number of times the capital is moved is said to be enough to count slowly on two hands, God knows how this copper tripod left the land of Bashu in China.

How Tongding got to North Africa may be an eternal mystery!

After talking about the copper tripod, Zhang Nan asked Nong Bosheng if he knew anyone who could recognize ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

As a result, Comrade Curator said: "I understand Chinese hieroglyphs, and I can help you find someone who understands ancient Greek." Ancient Egyptian, hehe......"

Well, Zhang Nan was ridiculed by Comrade Curator.

Zhang Nan can only accompany him...... Just asking, it seems that I can only go to the United States to find someone to open it up.

After saying this, Chen Hao also did a toxicity test for Tongding, which was safe.

Put the things in the boss, Zhang Nan doesn't care about putting the copper tripod in the RV, but so as not to scare Adjani, let Guan Xingquan, who has no taboos, take it away.

It's evening again, and I continue to run and go fishing, which is also a rare pleasure in this desert.

......

Three days later, Zhang Nan had already negotiated with the president of the Sultan to temporarily borrow the copper tripod for half a year to study, and the matter of the bronze tripod surprising the Sultan pyramid in the Spring and Autumn Period of China has also been made public.

Not only has it caused a sensation in the archaeological and historical circles of the East and the West, but it has even been broadcast in the national news of many countries.

On the 4th and 5th days, the coffin was opened to see the mummy.

There are three layers of coffins, and the innermost layer is an ancient Egyptian-style humanoid coffin--- gold!

The Sultan's team, William Brin, was ecstatic, and Zhang Nan valued more than a gold book found in a cabinet inside the tomb, which recorded the origin of some of the burial goods in the tomb.

It doesn't matter if you can't read hieroglyphs, William recognizes it.

It's more like a notebook boasting about the Settian king's own exploits: the tomb contains 22 burial objects looted from ancient Egypt, including the bronze tripod.

When explaining the contents of the golden book to Zhang Nan, William made it very clear: a wonderful exotic copper pot, the treasure of the pharaoh's prince, from Assyria in the East.

And then, it's gone!

This is the end of the origin of this bronze tripod, which is the most detailed record of the 22 precious trophies.

At this point, the clue was broken, the royal tomb was also dug, the second pyramid was dug by William after a while, and the things unearthed in the tomb of Setty were enough for him and his team to sort out for a few months.

Without Zhang Nan's patronage, King Setti's pyramid might not have been dug up more than 20 years later, and the copper tripod would not have reappeared.

Zhang Nan is planning to leave, if he is interested, he will come back then, and it is more likely that he will not come to Sudan again in ten or twenty years!

Because of the coup d'état.

In just two or three days, the mausoleum area has become very lively, and many reporters from all over the Western world, and even Egypt next door, have come.

Adjani now only dares to move around the camp or go fishing in a car, and she has to wear a hat and sunglasses every time.

The convoy returned to Khartoum, and the RV sent a driver north to take Sudanese foreign affairs personnel to Port Sudan, from where they were loaded onto a cargo ship bound for the United States.

When it was delivered, it was in a hurry, completely regardless of the cost, and rented a C5 Galaxy transport plane, because the C141 cargo hold height was not enough to fit it.

There is no need to be so extravagant to send this back to the United States, just take the normal sea freight. This is also because this RV is rare in the world and expensive, if it is an ordinary RV, it can be given directly to the Sultan, or given to William.

Take your own private jet from Khartoum to Paris and drop off Adjani first.

As for his vehicles, they will not be transported back to the United States in a few days: deliberately, Zhang Nan also plans to stop by to the United Kingdom.

will not stay in the UK for long, before the birth of his and Nicole's child, Zhang Nan must return to New York.

Just spend the night in Paris or stay in a hotel.

"Lisa, have you ever thought about changing houses?"

Zhang Nan is not stingy with his own women.

"No, it's nice to live now. ”

Adjani seemed to be smiling, she knew what was going on in her little man's heart.

She was not short of money, at least richer than the average Frenchman, and had always liked to be independent, not wanting to live on men.

Zhang Nan also knows what kind of person Adjani is, she won't give her a few million as a spare spend, if she does that, she may turn against you!

She doesn't value diamonds or jewelry, and she really doesn't know what she can give to this woman.

After thinking about it, I finally thought of the same.

"How about getting you a little golden man?"

Adjani smiled and said, "I'm not uncommon to Americans, and I don't think I'll be able to catch up next year." ”

"Then the year after tomorrow, you will have several Caesar awards, and it is not easy to get a little golden man. ”
