Lin Yi and the others were mentally prepared for the harsh situation here.
But I didn't expect it to be so bad here.
"More than ten lives were lost just like that? Didn't the local government care?"
Minton sighed and shook his head.
"If the local government takes control, will this place become the largest electronic fraud center in Southeast Asia? We, small countries in Southeast Asia, cannot compare to a big country like China.
The political situation here is turbulent. It is like this today and will be like that tomorrow, just like the Beiyang period over there. "
After hearing what he said, Qian Sheng understood instantly.
During the period of war between the Beiyang warlords, the people were in dire straits, and it was common for people to exchange their children for food.
It is not easy to survive in troubled times.
At that time, the lives of ordinary people were treated as if they were trivial. When a rich family's watchdog died, someone would still care about it. People starved to death on the street, and when they were swept away, they were thrown into mass graves without anyone asking. nothing.
Minton's words were somewhat exaggerated, but the fact that thugs from the electronic fraud syndicate could kill people at will was enough to illustrate the problem.
Boss Weng's influence here is definitely that of a local emperor.
It's not too simple to find people who will work for him. After these people die, they will be given a pension and some management will be done, and the matter will be over.
"Presumably there is indeed a priceless treasure hidden in the tomb of King Mangbai of Burma, otherwise he wouldn't have used such a vicious mechanism to prevent others from defeating him."
"Forget it, more than ten people died. It is said that even the entrance to the tomb has not been found, only a general range."
"It's okay, at least these bastards still have the truth in their mouths. But they, the Weng family, aren't that useless, right? Even if they can't find the entrance, they can't even lock the specific location?"
Wang Qiang asked very puzzledly.
According to the stories told by the gentlemen before, although the "Weng family class" are all wild people, they still know a little about Feng Shui theory, and their ancestors have outstanding "records".
As far as they know, there are "Donngling" and "Shizhaishan Tomb of the Dian King".
Up to now, I can't even determine the location of a cemetery. This business ability is really poor.
"The king of Burma, Mangbai, came from a wrong position and was narrow-minded. He especially liked to be suspicious of others.
In order to seize the throne, he launched a palace coup, kidnapped his own brother Mangda, and threw him into the river to drown alive.
Although Mangda was not a wise king, he was still a benevolent king when he was in power. It was he who advocated taking in Emperor Yongli who was living overseas at the time and holding on to the city of Ava.
After his death in the palace coup initiated by Mangbai, the country of Burma completely surrendered to the Qing court. Mangbai himself was also an out-and-out tyrant.
Therefore, judging from Mang Bai's mentality and approach to things, he must have attached great importance to his own affairs, and he would definitely not let others find out easily. "
Bai Lu's analysis basically analyzed the reasons.
Mintun kept shaking his head beside him, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"I didn't expect you to have such a thorough research on the history of our place. Indeed, as you said, Mang Bai's reputation was not good during his reign, so he must prevent others from digging up his tomb after his death.
According to the information fed back by our Hongmen intelligence network, their discovery of the tomb of King Burmese this time was purely an accident.
Half a month ago, we entered the end of the rainy season here. The precipitation would have gradually decreased, but unexpectedly the climate suddenly became abnormal. The old royal city, the Ava city you just mentioned, is now called Mandalay City.
The water level of the Irrawaddy River began to surge, causing large-scale floods and intensifying debris flow disasters. Unexpectedly, after the floods receded, an emerald deposit emerged in the Mandalay Mountain rainforest area.
While mining jade at the entrance of this field, it was discovered that workers had died mysteriously. Finally, based on verification from various sources, it was estimated that this might be the burial place of King Mangbai of Burma.
In fact, in our history, the location of Mang Bai's cemetery has always been a mystery. "
Myanmar is also a multi-ethnic country, and most of the people in the country believe in Buddhism.
Therefore, Burmese rulers in the past dynasties often chose religious funeral methods for burial.
Others are buried in a form that is combined with traditional Chinese funeral methods.
Only Mang Bai is an exception.
It is said that before he was alive, he started looking for people to find an excellent location for his tomb.
Then, mausoleums were built for him nationwide in the name of conscription. In the end, these people were compensated and buried collectively in the name of dying on the battlefield.
Therefore, almost no one who participated in the construction of the tomb of King Mangbai survived, except for a few confidants who were in charge of the construction of the tomb at that time.
“According to local historical documents, it can only be roughly determined that Mang Bai’s tomb was chosen in Ava City, and the specific location is unknown.
But in a poem circulated among the Burmese people, it was mentioned that "the tyrant's entire tomb was wrapped in emerald, his palace was covered with gold, he was lying on a bed carved from emerald, and he was covered with jewelry.
He hopes that one day he will be able to come back to life and see the Shan Plateau, the Bago Mountains and the Irrawaddy River when he opens his eyes."
"You even know this? Is the direction of your research our country of Myanmar?"
Min Tun looked at Bai Lu with a look of admiration.
A considerable number of Burmese people may not know this kind of information. Unexpectedly, a foreigner knows everything about it.
"Now that we are here, of course we have to do our homework. They originally judged that this might be the legendary Mangbai Mausoleum. It was probably because of the content of this poem, right?"
Min Tun nodded.
"Yes, because there are too few relevant historical documents, there is no way to confirm the specific location. They have looked everywhere for people who understand Chinese Feng Shui, but they have not been able to figure out the reason."
Hearing this, Lin Yi and the others looked at each other with confident smiles on their faces.
"Of course you can't see it. A flood has completely changed the landscape pattern here. What else can be seen? Not to mention these two-handed Feng Shui masters, even if you find some professionals to look at it, you may not be able to see it. See the door."
"Who says it's not the case? No wonder the people in the Weng family class can't find the location of the mausoleum. It's not that they are not good at their business. The main reason is that they are not professional. Do you think it is, brothers?"
Minton was confused when he heard what they said, not knowing what they meant.
"This professional counterpart you are talking about is"
"Brother, don't panic. This thing won't be interesting if you talk about it. Just follow us and we will demonstrate it on the spot."
