The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer
Chapter 1820: Blood diamond
It’s not quite right to say that Mr. Monte-Bolivar is Guan Xingquan’s little attendant. He is almost fifty years old no matter what, and he is still slightly fatter...
"Well, fat translation is better...Ah, what are you thinking about, it's messy!"
Walking into the awning with a messy mind for a moment, Guan Xingquan didn't raise his head, knowing who came in, not to mention that Zhang Nan and Charlie's footsteps could be noticed in this noisy environment. Voice.
There are many stones, and there is a little noise when walking.
Monte Bolivar doesn't care about the identity of the boss, but he doesn't need to stand up from his chair. Zhang Nan emphasized this before. There are not so many rules in the wild.
He said hello, "Boss, Miss Charlie."
One person pulled a chair and sat down. Charlize Theron also took a bottle of mineral water and opened it for two sips.
Dislike ice, replace it with peeling oranges to eat.
"When will Bell and the others come back?" Zhang Nan asked.
"By tomorrow night, Karloff and Mr. Rubio will be earlier, and the business in La Paz is almost over."
They are all busy people, five managers and CEOs, Christopher Bell and Marseille-Saros went to Peru yesterday afternoon. About the company, by the way, help Zhang Nan find an expert who understands Inca culture and has a serious mouth.
The history of South America only knows a little bit about the monuments, ruins, cultural relics and so on. Zhang Nan is really better than nothing.
As for Igor Karlov and Marco Rubio, there is something wrong with the Ministry of Mining of Bolivia. Zhang Nan asked them to go first when they have something to do, and don't have to go around themselves.
This time, the Monte is cheaper, and he will accompany him throughout the process for the time being.
Here, Charlie peeled another orange and naturally gave it half to Zhang Nan.
He's also welcome, he's used to it all these years, and he just stuffed it in his mouth when he took it.
At this time, an Indian teenager, who was at most eleven or twelve years old, rushed over from the excavation site, and when he reached the tent, he put a piece of something in his hand on the table.
Zhang Nan stretched out his hand and took it over to take a look. It was a piece of broken pottery with traces of color.
It is simple lines leaving marks, no specific patterns can be seen, and I just put it in a frame beside the table after seeing it: there are already a lot of pottery pieces of this kind of age, but almost worthless.
It is not a simple economic value. These pottery pieces have almost no archaeological value. This is the same reason that some old broken pieces of porcelain are often dug up in Huaxia rural areas.
Those tiles are nothing in the eyes of ordinary people. Zhang Nan can see the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Even the first three Qing Dynasties or the middle and late Qing Dynasty can judge that they are inseparable, but is it useful?
A fragment of the bottom of a porcelain bowl with flint red in the Ming Dynasty shows that there were human activities in the village in the Ming Dynasty?
The small pile of pottery pieces excavated today is temporarily placed in a frame, which is evidence of human activity in this place in ancient times.
But the world knows that there were human activities around Lake Titicaca in BC, so these pottery pieces that can't be put together are really not even a museum.
Zhang Nan threw the pottery pieces into the frame, and Charlize Theron on this end noticed that the teenager had secretly glanced at the fruit in the large fruit bowl on the table, and smiled and handed him some oranges.
A young man on the plateau may not even know what an orange tastes like.
Very polite, took a bow, said something, turned around and ran away quickly.
This young man has a task at the construction site, running errands, and sending any valuable small things found by excavation and screening to the tent. This scene made Zhang Nan a little illusion...
Then put an AK47 on the table, and I will sit alone with a group of people working underneath. It is best that Guan is a dark-skinned person, and then the little furry child quickly delivers things.
A rush for "Blood Diamond"!
After thinking about it, he almost laughed: If it is really like that, then Brother Guan is a bit miserable.
At this time, I heard Monte Bolivar say to Charlize Theron: "Miss Charlie, the kid was saying thank you just now."
She couldn't understand Aymara.
"It's very polite. It's very pitiful to work in the mine at such a young age." Charlie said.
Monte smiled and said, "You can't measure it by American standards. This child is 12 years old, but it's not pitiful at all, at least in our case in Bolivia.
It is normal for our little child to work before he is ten years old. If he is only helping at home, he has to work at a younger age. I remember that the parents of this little guy were all in this mine, his father was still a small foreman leading the team, and his mother was cooking in the kitchen.
His father had to pay a cost price for meals, and the little guy occasionally helped out in the cafeteria, basically it was nothing to eat from the mines, and he made a profit. The average peasant child is not so comfortable.
Next year, he will be able to get a salary without going down the well. The mine manager here says that the child has a flexible mind and he has studied for 3 years. Start by learning some surface work, and after seven or eight years, you will be a good technician. If you wait longer, you will also be a good foreman.
In some remote areas, there are mines at his age. That's hard work. It **** too much ash and doesn't even grow taller. "
The national conditions are different, the child is already doing well, and Charlie's sympathy is a waste.
Zhang Nan's gaze followed the boy's running, until he ran to the place where he sifted the dirt and stones, and saw that the boy gave a few oranges that Charlie had given to an adult man as if offering treasures.
It seems that the man didn't want him. He might be his father, a very good child.
I moved my gaze to the vicinity, and the excavation area on the side was leaning against the hillside. Since the start of construction yesterday afternoon, a shallow layer has been dug down, revealing a stone wall made of two rows of stones.
Not in a hurry, besides this kind of excavation of cultural relics, construction machinery is not needed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is not yet known how deep these stone walls are.
I'm too lazy to make a probe first, anyway, if there are enough manpower, just dig down. Damon Bolivar has said that if there is not enough manpower, some people can be transferred from other mines.
Some mines are cheap labor.
This is not necessary. Zhang Nan doesn't understand the culture of the Incas, but he can still make some judgments about the size of the site. After this hundred people were killed, another ten and a half months of digging would be almost the same.
This place is not big, and I don't expect any major discoveries. Besides, even if I dig out something special, I can't understand it, right?
You have to wait for Bell and the others to help them find an expert. Otherwise, they might miss valuable discoveries. The important discoveries accumulated in the cultural layer are usually at the bottom, like these broken pottery pieces in the frame. Nine is the remains of human activities many years after the ruins were abandoned, not long.
There is no obvious demarcation point between the soil and rock layers. Marks are made every 30 centimeters of excavation. The remnants of human activities selected from the same layer are stored in a frame, waiting for the knowledgeable to analyze.
