I Am a Nobleman in England
Chapter 124: Terrible gold and silver tatters
Speculators are essentially forecasters who act on the basis of their forecasts to make a profit while taking the risk of being wrong.
Also as a speculator, Arthur rationally told him to understand what it means to accept what is good. You can get rich by speculation, but long-term prosperity depends on investment.
The first speculation in history was done by Pharaoh Joseph the Great of Egypt. Joseph, the wise and perceptive pharaoh, draws correct conclusions from the dreams of seven good years and seven bad years. In good years, he hoarded large quantities of grain so that he could bring it to market at a higher price in later bad years.
Of course, there are many famous figures in history who are also members of the speculative family. Discovering the force of gravity, Newton, whose name lasted forever, also tried securities speculation, but failed. In the end, Newton even forbade others to make securities transactions in front of him.
Voltaire talked for hours with his girlfriend about securities and money. He also speculated on grain and real estate, and later became popular as a foreign exchange smuggler.
Beneath the portrait of Keynes, the greatest economist of this century, the British government wrote: "Sir John Menar Keynes, who succeeded in acquiring wealth without working."
In 1932, with the legendary economic crisis in 1929, the Great Depression reached its bottom. At this time, Keynes invested heavily in U.S. stocks, and the ensuing economic recovery made him a very rich man. Keynes was one of the few economists who made money on the stock exchange.
As long as human beings have existed, there have been speculators and speculators, not only in the past, but also in the future. Therefore, the speculator came into being, no matter whether he gambled, earned or lost, the speculator will never disappear.
Arthur, who succeeded as a speculator, chose to take profits as soon as possible and settle his pockets. It was not because he was timid or afraid. He was more willing to be poor, because he had too little money, and his investment In the final analysis, it is still a kind of gambling. Although I know that I can win in the end, I can't win every game. Investing is a very risky thing. Once the money is invested, it is beyond your control.
Be the master of money, not work for money.
"Boom——"
The joystick was straighter and straighter, and as he walked, the butler Paul pushed the door in, and said with a smile to Arthur, who was trying to recall all the financial memories of his previous life: "The people from the Treasure Appraisal Committee have arrived. "
"Oh, they came fast enough. This doesn't look like the efficiency of the British. I thought it would take them a few days to come!" Arthur also raised his eyebrows and smiled in surprise.
The efficiency of the British people is notoriously slow! There is a good saying,
The rain and strikes are the fastest in the UK, and everything else has to wait.
When working in the UK, it is normal to wait in line for four hours. In the emergency department in the UK, as long as your condition is not serious enough to threaten your life, it is normal to wait for several hours. If you don’t have blood on your body, you are embarrassed to wait in line. . . It takes more than a week to send a courier, a week or two to get a bank card, call a doctor to make an appointment and listen to music on the phone for an hour and a half.
"How is it possible? As soon as they heard the report, they wished they could rush over yesterday. They were all eager to get there first and help their museum obtain the most important archaeological discoveries for public benefit." Paul the housekeeper sneered mockingly.
"Hehe, it's a beautiful idea, but unfortunately, I'm not short of money now." Arthur stood up from the boss's chair, smiled and straightened his clothes, and said to Paul, "No one can take away the money that belongs to Bo. Anything from the Lin family, let’s go, let’s meet our guests.”
"Okay, Lord, please—" Paul extended his hand to invite.
This time the Treasure Appraisal Committee sent a total of three cars and ten people. I have to say that this kind of battle is indeed not small, and it is quite surprising. However, the number of treasures unearthed by Arthur is astonishing, 1,350 pieces. When the Treasure Valuation Committee got the news, they were all shocked. People from major museums stationed in the Treasure Valuation Committee wished to participate in it, so as to advance Get in touch with the owner of the treasure to refresh your presence.
"Hello, Your Excellency, I am Michael Lewis, an archaeological expert at the British Museum..."
"Hello, Your Excellency, I am James Winter, Department of Archeology, University of Birmingham, UK..."
"Your Excellency, I am very happy to meet you. This is Southampton Museum..."
. . . . . .
A group of ten people shook hands with Arthur very enthusiastically and introduced themselves, as if worried that Arthur would not know their origin and name and despise them.
Arthur looked at the group of experts who looked at him with green eyes, shook hands with them one by one with a calm expression, and then said with a smile: "You are very welcome, I believe that you all know the specific situation very well, So, I won’t repeat it here, everyone should look at those cultural relics first, I know you can’t wait, here please—”
Without letting them hang out, and without cooperating, Arthur led everyone to the studio where the antiques were stored with a smile on his face. He mainly wanted to know the date and origin of these things, and at the same time let this group of people give them Do a rough estimate.
When the ten experts walked into the studio and saw all kinds of gold and silver ornaments on the long table, they couldn't help expressing emotion in surprise and excitement.
"Oh my god, although I already know that there are a lot of them, I still haven't prepared myself for seeing them!"
"Shocked, breathtaking, completely speechless, more unbelievable than imagined."
"This may be the most important discovery I have ever experienced. This scale should definitely rank first in the UK..."
"God, what do I see, it's an Anglo-Saxon pattern!"
Following the exclamation of one of the experts, all the experts seemed to have discussed it. One by one, they took out their magnifying glasses, put on their white gloves, and each of them found a cultural relic, moved forward, and began to observe carefully.
"I'm sorry, Honorable Earl, they are a little rude, but I hope you can understand that the treasure you discovered is really too attractive to them."
Arthur smiled and listened to the officials of the Treasure Appraisal Committee, with a dumbfounded expression on his face, shook his head slightly and said: "It's nothing, I can understand their feelings, but I have to say that an expert is an expert, just a general look , can only tell the age of these cultural relics, which is really admirable."
"The craftsmanship is so exquisite, it is definitely the highest level of craftsmanship in the Anglo-Saxon period..."
At this moment, James Winter, the Archeology Department of the University of Birmingham who shouted out the age, exclaimed again, holding a golden cross inlaid with garnets in his white-gloved hand, his expression flushed with excitement.
"Yes, it is basically certain that the things here can be traced back to the 17th century. The number here is much larger than other important Anglo-Saxon treasures..."
"These items are related to the war, you see, this fragment of a helmet carved with a running animal pattern, and this gold sword hilt with a ruby inlaid. The gold skin, which indicates that they may have been removed from the weapon, but it has not been completely After dismantling, it shows that it was very rushed at that time..."
"Definitely trophies, probably taken from some Anglo-Saxon king. Losing these trophies would mean the king's downfall."
"... as mentioned in the famous epic poem Beowulf in the 8th century AD, frequent wars between kings and nobles cut off the British Isles from the rest of Europe, so this period is also known as called the "isolation period".
But judging from the treasures discovered this time, Britain was not isolated from other regions as previously thought. The garnets on the cross likely came from places such as Sri Lanka, suggesting that Britain was also trading with distant countries at the time. "James Winter, Department of Archeology, University of Birmingham, with bright eyes, showed all his colleagues the distorted golden cross in his hand, tracing the history like a treasure.
At this time, Arthur and the housekeeper Paul listened to the analysis conclusions of the experts in the studio, and looked at each other, and they both saw the sparkle in each other's eyes. They knew that they seemed to have dug out something. Heaps of 'gold and silver tatters'!
