Starting My Treasure Hunting In England
Chapter 489 Champion
The old man who spoke on stage was a very famous folklorist, a tenured professor at Humboldt University in Berlin, and the leader of the judging panel for this competition.
It is very normal for these scholars who study traditional folklore to have connections with such organizations, because in the eyes of scholars, these organizations are living inheritors of folklore and can unearth a large amount of useful knowledge.
For these organizations, building good relationships with these scholars can also solve many problems that everyone encounters, and is helpful in solving a series of problems they encounter.
According to the information Liang En received, Golden Dawn actually has several consultants who are scholars. Some professional issues in this area are helped by these consultants.
The old man on the stage now has not become a consultant for any organization, but acts as a neutral scholar. This is an important reason why he can become a referee this time.
After the simple opening remarks, it was time for presentation. The big screen on the rostrum began to play all the discoveries of those who participated in the competition.
I have to say that unless you can directly cheat like Liang En, even if you are carefully prepared, you will sometimes make some low-level mistakes. For example, this Rosicrucian meeting was an accidental mistake after careful preparation. .
But they are not the worst. At least based on the excavated things, this Roman military camp located deep in the Black Forest should have been built around the first year of the Christian era.
In other words, this military camp is probably related to the historical event in AD 9 when Walus, the governor of the Germanic provinces of the Roman Empire, led an army to conquer the Germans. The result was a disastrous defeat in the Teutoburg Forest and the annihilation of three Roman legions.
Although this has little to do with the supernatural phenomena that everyone is looking for, it has a relatively high historical value anyway, so it ranks relatively high among all discoveries.
Equally valuable are an early Bible manuscript produced by the Scottish Freemasons and the remains of a saint found by the Illuminati from nowhere.
"The time specified this time is really too short." Seeing that his discovery was placed in sixth place by the judges, Nelson shook his head and whispered to Liang En. "So everyone was in a bit of a rush and a lot of people just didn't perform to their level."
"But this also highlights your level. At least judging from the current situation, you will definitely be able to win the championship this time, because other people's discoveries are too far from yours."
"——Now let us congratulate Mr. Liang En from the Golden Dawn, who won the championship in this competition." Less than a minute after Nelson's words fell, the elder on the stage said The winner of this competition.
"He discovered the Mycenaean ruins, which proved that the ancient "Homer's Epic" was indeed adapted based on certain historical facts, rather than a pure work of fantasy, so this time the championship will be awarded to this great Mycenaean discoverer By."
"Wow--" Just as the old man finished speaking, the entire auditorium was immediately filled with applause. Almost everyone present applauded to congratulate Liang En.
This is a very important discovery, because for those present, this discovery and the previous discovery on Crete prove one thing, that is, the ancient Greek epics were not completely made up, but there are some elements in them. The real part.
For the people present in these secret societies, this is very valuable information, because it confirms that what they were pursuing before is not all illusion, which is why they are so excited.
"Very good, well done." When Liang En came down from the stage with a small trophy, President Charles hugged Liang En excitedly, "After three years, we finally won the championship."
Although the overall atmosphere of the Golden Dawn organization is very Buddhist, even to the point of being a bit salty, there is still some competitiveness in such regularly organized competitions.
This is mainly because the Golden Dawn organization can be said to be an important founder of modern Western magic, so historical baggage prevents them from accepting that they cannot win every game.
However, if you want to find important discoveries, you don't need to have a good foundation. Sometimes you need some luck. Therefore, even if you didn't win the previous competition, everyone thought it was normal.
But even so, President Charles still felt a lot of psychological pressure and felt that he could not live up to the glorious history of the Golden Dawn. Fortunately, Liang En's victory this time finally made him relieved.
"I really didn't expect that the prize after winning this competition would be so good." At the reception after the competition, Liang En looked at his gains and asked Nelson curiously.
“I understand that participants in this category of secretive ends tend to be financially well-off, but is a prize worth at least £7-8 million like this a bit too high?”
Although the land Liang En obtained this time is located in the Scottish Highlands, only about 1/10 of the 3,200 acres of land is agricultural land, and the rest is all woods and water bodies that have not been developed and cannot be developed.
But because this land comes with hunting and fishing rights, even if the overall price cannot be as expensive as those developed farms or even commercial real estate, the overall price of such a large piece of land cannot be as high. too cheap.
"It's not high, because the prizes in every competition are basically things that everyone puts together. In order to promote understanding of historical secrets, everyone is actually quite willing to spend money."
Nelson raised the champagne glass in his hand and clinked it with the glass of mineral water in Liang En's hand.
"You know, many of these organizations have some big capital support behind them, so things that are very valuable to newcomers like us are just dispensable in the eyes of the big guys."
Nelson's background was better than Liang En's, so although he couldn't enter those real upper-class circles, it was still okay to get some inside information in this area.
"If that's the case, everything will make sense." Liang En nodded. After all, if you really have a lot of money, investing in your hobbies is a very normal thing.
Although the price of the entire property is tens of millions of pounds, each organization only needs to pay a cost ranging from 300,000 to 500,000 pounds, which is completely affordable for these organizations.
"But this land may not be as good as you think. You'd better be mentally prepared." After talking about money, Nelson reminded Liang En, "The land tax on this land will not be low, but the income will be. Not high."
"I can also see this." Liang En nodded. After all, the only thing that can provide stable income on this land is about 1/10 of the pasture. As for the fishing and hunting rights, it is obviously impossible to get much money. .
However, when collecting taxes, the tax department collects money according to the land area. Even if the forest land or water area does not have commercial output and the tax revenue is not high, the overall number is not a small number.
Therefore, for Liang En, acquiring this real estate is both a good thing and a challenge, so he may need to spend some energy on this newly acquired real estate in the next period of time.
