Pushing open a coffin, a mummy wrapped in a shroud was revealed. The hollow, twisted and struggling features seemed to be shouting to the sky. Even though these soldiers were used to seeing death, they were shocked.
"Fuck! Put this thing in the palace? Are you afraid of ruining the feng shui..."
"No wonder the Pharaoh is in bad luck. Who has such a thing in his house..."
The mummies are not scary, but the scary thing is that they were placed in the wrong place, because no one could have imagined that there were so many mummies hidden deep in the Louvre. If this story were spread back to Asia, there might be many versions of the legend.
"Push all the coffins away and see what's inside..." Wang Chen ordered. All eight coffins on the scene were pried open by the soldiers.
At last a closer look, three of the coffins contained mummies, two were empty, and the remaining coffins were filled with ancient Egyptian papyri and small pieces of stone carvings.
"There's nothing valuable, it's all junk, just throw it away. Anyway, we also found the oil painting of the President..."
Wang Chen listened to the words of his brothers, but shook his head, "We are not professionals in this, and these two old guys can't explain it. Go and invite Zuo Dachao over and let him make an idea..."
The two soldiers ran to the left in a hurry, and in a short time they brought the ghost eye from Liulichang over.
"What is it? Do you want me to catch a mummy? I have never studied rice dumplings in my life. Don't pull me. It's useless to pull me..."
When Wang Chen saw Zuo Dachaofeng, he said with a serious face, "It's okay for us to joke around on weekdays, but today I find this thing strange... You'd better take a closer look!"
"After all, France is such a big empire. The emperor is so powerful that even the Manchu Qing Dynasty is no match... It is impossible that such an emperor collects coffins and mummies!"
"You're right... you're right..." The left eye froze when he saw the paintings and papyrus on the coffins.
"There is an unspoken rule in our antique business. Generally speaking, treasures unearthed or thousands of years ago, with inscriptions are worth ten times more than those without inscriptions!"
"Are Xia, Shang and Zhou bronzes valuable? The price difference between those with inscriptions and those without inscriptions is astronomical..."
"What exactly is playing with antiques? It's not history, it's not culture, it's not just relying on antique research to make some sense!"
"In the eyes of ordinary people, only gold, pearls and jade are valuable. A piece of tattered paper is not as valuable as a big gold ingot... But this is the value of ordinary people, in our eyes..."
"These things are treasures because they have writing and paintings on them!"
While talking to Wang Chen on the left, he also communicated with the old Berlin painter who woke up through a translator, and finally decided.
"Take away...take away all these coffins and their contents! These are cultural relics from ancient Egypt three thousand years ago. The characters on them are all ancient Egyptian characters, and they have been lost to inheritance!"
"They are all good things. Don't throw away any of them. Take them all with you!"
After all, robbery is also a technical job. At this moment, even General Luo Huo started nailing the boxes. The wooden boxes were full of books collected in the palace.
And when he turned around, he saw four soldiers running back carrying two large wooden poles and ropes. After more than twenty minutes, he saw four soldiers left and right, two large wooden poles on their shoulders, and a colorful painting. The coffin was carried out.
"Hey? Hey...what is this? Is it bad luck?" Luo Huo said with his eyes widened.
"General, please leave it alone. The left side of Ghost Eye has already been touched. He said it was a good thing from more than 3,000 years ago and it is priceless..."
"I'll go... our appearance is too ugly, even the coffin board is not spared!" Luo Huo shook his head and sighed.
There are thousands of treasures in the palace, including sculptures and oil paintings, which are inexhaustible treasures. But this is not all. Among them, the ancient books bound by General Luo Huo are also very important.
Many ancient sheepskin scrolls, secret archives from the Middle Ages, and even astronomical calendars from the ancient Roman era... There are no less than 100,000 volumes stored in the Tuileries Palace.
There was no way to take them all away. At the moment, we could only rely on experts to pick out the most expensive and oldest items to take away. In a short time, General Luo Huo had loaded more than ten large wooden boxes, all of which were filled with ancient sheepskin items. roll.
In addition to sculptures, oil paintings, and ancient scrolls, there are of course various treasures and displays. Europeans are very obsessed with diamonds and jewelry. Although the queen took away the most precious parts when she fled, the number of treasures in the palace is really too great. There are many, and the remaining ones are enough for the Chinese to make a fortune.
You can search along all the bedrooms in the palace. The main jewelry and gemstones are basically hidden in these places. You will gain something when you open every dressing table.
Although the palace had been robbed by thugs before, the time was still short after all, and most of the treasures escaped.
However, those who can escape from the hands of the mob may not be able to escape the Chinese raids. The soldiers carried the empty boxes along the room to collect them, basically opening a drawer and pouring the contents into the box.
After a while, a huge empty box was filled!
"General! General! The latest order came from the head of state... All the three treasures of the palace must be taken away. Time is running out. The head of state urges you to leave the city before dawn!"
"Three treasures of the palace? There are all treasures here. What other three treasures are there?"
"The head of state wrote a note and even asked someone to draw a picture, saying that European experts would know after just one look..."
Several sketches were handed into the hands of the Berlin scholars. They looked at each other and studied for a while and said, "You have got the Mona Lisa painting, and the remaining two are sculptures!"
"Venus de Milo, and the goddess of victory in Samtras!"
"These two sculptures are not difficult to find, but they are too heavy. How will you move them?"
Everyone began to search the palace, and finally found these two statues in the Louvre. Luo Huo took a closer look and found that they were indeed quite big. The statue of the Goddess of Victory was more than three meters high, and the Venus de Milo was also more than two meters high.
And the base is completely connected and inlaid with the marble floor, so you don’t have that much time to dig it out with a chisel!
"What should we do? General, if that doesn't work, let's go to the hospital!"
"No, it can't be..." The group of old European scholars suddenly went crazy. "These are art treasures that are thousands of years old. It's not okay to damage them at all. This is a crime!"
Luo Huo smiled ferociously, "Damn, we came to Europe to commit crimes. Do you think we came to do good deeds? But don't worry, I can't bear to destroy such a good baby..."
"Let our engineers come in and let these Europeans see what fixed-point blasting is!"
