Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

It's normal that you don't recognize this thing. After all, this kind of crown is only popular in some Catholic communities in Northern Europe. If my aunt hadn't married a Swede back then, I wouldn't have recognized what it was.

Then what exactly is this? Liang En asked after handing the crown to Pierce and letting him put it away. Because he really wanted to understand what this crown, which combines gorgeousness and roughness, was.

This is the Virginity Crown. In the Catholic tradition, the bride at the wedding is as sacred as the Virgin Mary in people's minds. Pierce placed the crown on the table and said.

So whenever a wedding is held, the local church will give the bride the crown that is usually worn on the head of the statue of Mary. Of course, because the Virgin is not only supreme, but also represents chastity, only the virgin bride is qualified to wear it.

Even before the 20th century, there was a tradition in the Catholic communities in Northern Europe that the bride should not have children too early after getting married. If you are suspected of getting on the bus first and paying the fare later, you will be fined.

The money collected from the fine will be given to the church and then used specifically to gild this Virgin Mary crown. This is why the surface of this crown looks a bit too round.

So that's it! Liang En showed a clear expression after hearing Pierce's explanation. Sure enough, everyone has something they are good at, and learning should be lifelong.

Next, Liang En also took out the things he found. Although the total value of these things may not be as valuable as the silver-plated crown, for Pierce, finding these things in the wild is something worthy of praise. .

Sell me the things you find in the future. After looking at the gadgets Liang En found, Pierce said seriously. I promise to only take 1/3 of the commission under normal circumstances.

Why are you doing this? Liang En asked with some confusion. After all, Pierce didn't know that he had a cheat. If the normal draw ratio was 1/3, he would only be earning hard money a lot of the time.

Because I think you are indeed suitable for this profession. Ever since you found that pocket pistol, I feel that you have been on the rise in this area. After hearing Liang En's question, Pierce also answered seriously.

So as a businessman, I naturally have to seize this treasure of yours. Although we are friends, I think our common interests will make our cooperation stronger.

Aren't you worried that after you say this, I will find someone else to cooperate after realizing my own value? Liang En asked immediately as soon as Pierce finished speaking.

To be honest, he always felt a little abrupt about Pierce suddenly making this request today, so he subconsciously wanted to find out why his friend did this.

No, because you are not the kind of person who only values ​​interests over friendship. Pierce shook his head with a smile, And even from a purely profit perspective, cooperating with me is obviously beneficial to me.

To be honest, if I help you sell things at this price, I won't make much money from the transaction itself, but it will give me an opportunity for upward development.

Pierce also knew that this kind of behavior that was almost giving money was indeed a bit strange, so he explained seriously to Liang En why he did this.

You know, although my family has been engaged in this business in London for generations and has accumulated sufficient connections, the store size our family operates is only a little larger and has not expanded much.

And since you kept finding various treasures, I finally saw the possibility of taking my store to the next level. Although I do lack talent in this area, I can cooperate with a talented and reliable person.

So you found me? After hearing Pierce state his goal so straightforwardly, Liang En felt relieved, because compared to the inexplicable profit sharing, this kind of cooperation that allows everyone to benefit is very Reasonable.

To be honest, Liang En doesn't mind cooperating with others on this matter. Because he knew that even if he had a golden finger, his advantage would be focused on finding treasures and searching for the truth of history from various ruins.

Rather than engaging in trade work that you are not suitable for in order to reap all the profits, it is imperative to allocate part of the profits to a reliable professional to take charge of these tasks.

Obviously, Pierce is the most suitable person for this role now, and it was precisely because he saw this that he made this request to Liang En.

For him, although Liang En is just making hard money here, the things Liang En entrusts him to auction can significantly enhance his status in the market, allowing him to obtain more benefits from other places.

If that's the case, I would like to give you priority in selling the things I find. After thinking for a while, Liang En made a preliminary commitment. We can find professionals to sign a contract when we return to London.

After reaching an agreement, the two people went straight to the famous Tsar Restaurant in St. Petersburg to have a good meal and celebrate the successful completion of the commission and the finalization of future cooperation.

This is a very historic restaurant, built in 1750. After entering the door, you will find that almost all the columns, ceilings, and displays inside are more than a hundred years old, and this is an important reason why the two of them chose to have dinner here.

Perhaps because of the name of the restaurant, the heads of 11 czars hang in the restaurant. When Pierce and the others arrived, several waiters wearing costumes from that period were still singing Tsarist hymns.

Of course, the reason why this store is famous is not just because of the environment. Most of the recipes in this store are left over from a hundred years ago.

Considering that the Tsar once dined in this hotel, eating here can also be regarded as tasting the same delicacies as the Tsar did back then.

Because it was a celebration after completing a big business deal, Liang En and the others specially ordered a portion of caviar to be eaten with rye toast.

Although Liang En really couldn't taste the taste of this caviar, it tasted very good whether it was barbecue, salad or borscht, and the raspberry juice and Napoleon cake after the meal were also delicious.

The meal was satisfying in every way, and the only thing that made me feel a little sad was when it came time to pay the bill, which cost 107 pounds for just two people. It can be said to be a very expensive meal.

In the next two days, Liang En and Pierce visited several famous attractions such as the Winter Palace, the cruiser Aurora, Peter Fortress, and the Catherine Palace, and made some purchases along the way. Some small gifts.

After all, it’s not easy to come from the UK, so since I have time, I naturally want to visit these scenic spots.

And on the third day that the two of them stayed in St. Petersburg, the Robuchon housekeeper from the Earl's Palace called Liang En and brought them good news.

We have confirmed that the unknown deceased No. 1082 buried in Finland is indeed the young master of our family, so tomorrow I will go to St. Petersburg to pay you the compensation you deserve.
