Chapter 706 Relic
After arranging all the plans, Liang En and the others quickly rearranged the scene, such as cleaning the Buddha statue from the pile of sand and throwing the soil outside the pile, or re-arranging the silver bricks. Lay it in the pit.
After the scene was finished, Liang En started to call some people. Of course, this time the discovery should be reported to the local officials, the archaeological department, and even the taxation department, but before that, he had to make some extra calls to ensure that the people who came People can act in accordance with the law.
Soon, Liang En successfully contacted the right person. In addition to local officials, he also contacted many media in the Philippines and abroad to start a live broadcast.
Although they said they planned to change the location of the golden Buddha, other things were still planned to be made public directly, so it was obviously a good idea to call some media at this time.
As they had guessed before, the discovery was important enough to attract many people, so a day later, hundreds of people came to this place, and even the top local administrative officials came here.
The next thing is much easier to deal with, because this matter even made the news with the highest ratings in the Philippines, so the progress of the whole work is much faster than previously guessed.
Only two days later, everything was processed, and because Liang En insisted on keeping the twelve Buddha statues, the Philippines took away 120 tons of silver as the tax payment for this time.
As for the remaining 280 tons of silver, Liang En and the others deposited it in the Central Bank of the Philippines as a reserve for their soon-to-open bank.
Considering that most of the wealth came from the plundering of Chinese Americans by the Japanese occupation forces in World War II, future low-interest loans will be inclined to Chinese Americans, which can be regarded as taking from the people and using them for the people.
As for the method of distinguishing Chinese ethnicity, it is very simple. Just look at the applicant's surname to judge the ethnicity of the other party. However, the surname of Chinese is very obvious compared with other races, and it is impossible to make a wrong judgment.
"Finally, I've finished dealing with those trivial matters." After completing the last interview in the guest room of the plantation and watching those people leave, Joan lay on the bed completely disregarding her image.
To be honest, it is extremely tiring to do interviews all day long, especially since Joan herself, as the sole heir of the Duke of England, has attracted the attention of European and American media.
Therefore, many times Joan of Arc was repeatedly asked various questions, and sometimes Liang En felt that the character that the reporters wanted to interview was not himself but Joan of Arc.Naturally, this kind of high-intensity interview is also easy for the interviewee to feel tired.
"That's right, interviews are always like this, and sometimes they are more tiring than our work." Liang En nodded and said, "Fortunately, everything is over, and we can rest for a while."
"Yeah, at least we can rest here for a week." Joan stretched on the bed and sat up, then looked at Liang En who was sitting on the edge of the table. "What are you doing?"
"My current research found something from that Buddha statue just now." Liang En looked at the two large and small jars in front of him and said, "Although I don't believe in religion, I think it's best to fast for three days before opening these jars .”
Traditional Buddha statues often contain some kind of treasure, but this golden Buddha statue weighs more than six tons, which can be said to be the heaviest golden Buddha in the world, so the treasures inside are naturally extraordinary.
Even according to the situation seen in the previous space, this golden statue is almost solid, and the only two spaces are placed in these two stone jars, which are no larger than the size of a palm.
"You said it was something inside the previous Buddha statue?" Looking at the two dusty jars, Joan showed a curious expression, "Why doesn't this thing look like—"
"You want to say that this thing doesn't look like a pure gold Buddha statue, right?" Liang En smiled. "It does look like this on the outside, but in fact this thing should be more valuable."
This judgment was made because Liang En felt through the force inside the previous space that the two spaces inside the Golden Buddha were completely cast in the shape of a stone jar.
In other words, when this Buddha statue was made, it was known that the Buddha statue was just an accessory, and the real important core was these two stone jars.
Of course, the most important thing is that there are ancient Sanskrit carvings on the stone jar, and Liang En knew it. After a simple translation, he recognized these words: This is the sacred relic of my Buddha Sakyamuni. The relics of the Jia tribe.
According to Buddhist scriptures, after Sakyamuni Buddha passed away and was cremated, his relics were divided into 8 parts, one of which was returned to the king of Kapila, the country where the Sakyamuni tribe (the race to which Sakyamuni Buddha belonged) lived.
During the Ashoka period, which is equivalent to the period of Qin Shihuang in China, a pagoda was built in this place to enshrine the relic of Sakyamuni Buddha.
Later, as the history of India continued to move forward, one war after another and various changes caused Buddhism to gradually disappear from India, and the stupa was also destroyed and gradually forgotten by people.
Unbeknownst to Leung, in another world the two jars had been housed in Indian museums since they were dug up by British colonists in the early 20th century.
As for the relics inside, they were placed directly in the plastic box for exhibition. It was not until the 20s when the Thai royal family donated a golden pagoda that the relics were put into the pagoda for exhibition.
For the next three days, Liang En fasted according to the traditional Chinese method. Although he did not believe in Buddhism, as a card holder, he subconsciously paid respect to this legendary power.
Three days passed quickly.After cleaning his hands briefly, Liang En opened the two jars carefully, and saw the Buddhist relics in the jars.
Contrary to imagination, the Buddhist relics in the jar are not as golden as Liang En imagined, and they are not even spherical as seen in many news, but in irregular pieces.
The largest of these relics can be 3 x 5cm, and it looks like ordinary stones, which may be the self-obscuration of the legendary gods.
Of course, this also proves from another direction that there is indeed no extraordinary power in this world. Otherwise, half of the Philippines could see the golden light just by opening the cover just now.
The reason for opening the cover is also very simple, because this discovery is so important but Liang En did not get any cards, which means that he did not touch the core of the treasure this time.
So after thinking over and over again, Liang En opened the last two jars, and just as he imagined, the moment he saw the relic, he got the cards he should get in this treasure hunt.
There are ten cards in total. Obviously, Buddha Bone Relic is indeed very valuable from the perspective of extraordinary cards, because he found that he actually issued two SSR cards this time, which has never happened before.
But think about it, as the top sacred object of Buddhism, one of the three major religions in the world, the information contained on it must be massive, so it is normal to get a series of high-level cards this time.
But then again.It is not easy to find this level. Unless Liang En can obtain treasures like the True Cross and the Holy Grail, it is basically impossible to have a chance to obtain a large number of high-level cards.
