I Have a Little Black Hole
Chapter 175: Confronting the Egyptians
After everyone came out, they took off their chemical protective suits as soon as possible, and then went to the bathroom in the camp to take a bath. The smell of sweat was too strong! Moreover, the clothes are sticking to the body, and it is really unbearable if you don't take a shower and change your clothes.
After everyone cleaned up, there was no rest for a moment, so many cultural relics were waiting for them there! For those who are engaged in archaeology, they are as happy as bees when they meet bees. There is no mood to rest, and they can't wait to study it carefully! .
When they arrived at the tent where the statue was placed, Joseph and Lei Tiantang were greeted by the leading professor in Egypt, Mahmoud. Lei Tiantang and the others saw him and a few assistants in the tent from afar. They paced back and forth because they couldn't get in. Without Joseph's instructions, of course Lei Tiantang's security staff couldn't let them in.
Joseph! You are finally here! Come and take us in to see our Egyptian cultural relics! Mahmoud said impatiently as soon as he came up.
You made a mistake, Mahmoud! This is our cultural relic! It's not your Egypt, although they were excavated in your Egypt, but we signed the contract in advance, and all the discoveries belong to us, For this, we have paid you a total of 2 million dollars to the Egyptian government! Joseph said seriously.
His words also aroused the dissatisfaction of Mahmoud and the assistants behind him. Although they knew that what Joseph said was the truth, they told them to give up and let Joseph and the others take away these cultural relics. None of the Egyptians present were Willingly!
Okay! We will discuss these issues later, but can we also go in and have a look now? Although he was not reconciled, Mahmoud, who had nothing to do at the moment, could only hope to see the situation first, and then contact the government. People see what's going on.
Joseph looked at Lei Tiantang, and when he saw him nodding, he replied: Yes! There is no problem in going in, but you can't get started. At most, you are only allowed to take pictures. Do you think you will accept it?
Seeing the tone of Joseph's question, Mahmoud knew that if he didn't agree, he probably wouldn't even be able to see it. He could only nod his head in agreement when people were under the eaves.
After everyone entered the big tent, Joseph and Kayla began to work, took these statues out of the packaging, and separated them according to the material and size. There were also people next to them holding cameras and record books to record their characteristics one by one. s things. Although they couldn't get started, Mahmud and the others were not idle, because they were all statues, and the basic situation could be seen with the naked eye, so they were busy taking pictures while recording, and Joseph didn't care about them, anyway. None of these things are yours!
Lei Tiantang came out after satisfying his curiosity. He didn't have the patience to do those meticulous things. Seeing that Kayla and the others were working hard, he didn't want to disturb them, so he came out and found a place to put the computer on. Open,
He began to read the emails sent to him by various departments of the company. He still needs to make up his mind about some things in the company, so he has to read and reply every day.
The next day, just as Joseph and Lei Tiantang were about to enter the pyramid again to open the stone gate of the passage above, the security guards stopped them, because there were people from Egypt, and the officials were not small, and they were visiting Egypt. A Deputy Minister of Management.
Joseph and Lei Tiantang looked at each other and both understood that this was probably Mahmud's backhand. They wanted to use the government to put pressure on them so that they could keep these cultural relics. Lei Tiantang said with a smile: Professor, let's go! Let's see what these Egyptians want to pressure us!
Joseph said with a smile: Mr. Lei, we can completely ignore them! As long as we don't let go, the Egyptian government will have nothing to do with us. Anyway, it is not the first time that they have let their domestic pyramid cultural relics flow out!
Joseph greeted everyone who had already begun to prepare to rest, and then went in after they returned, and then came to the tent in the camp with Lei Tiantang, where the Egyptians were already waiting for them.
Hello! Professor Joseph! I am Aria, the deputy minister of Egypt's Ministry of Tourism Management. Thank you very much for excavating such a complete pyramid in Egypt! As soon as he entered the door, the deputy minister stood up with a smile and greeted Joseph warmly .
Hello! Minister Arria, welcome to you! Joseph shook hands with him.
After greeting him and his entourage to sit down, Joseph asked, Is there any job for Minister Arria here?
That's it, yesterday we received a call from Professor Mahmoud, saying that you have brought hundreds of statues and cultural relics from the inside of the pyramid. Our tourism management department attaches great importance to this matter, so I sent me to take a look. Could you please discuss and leave some of the statues to our Egyptian government, even if it is a small amount! Aria said with a smile.
Mr. Minister! I think you must have seen the contract we signed with your government before you came. We have spent a total of 2 million US dollars to buy all the cultural relics in this pyramid! Knowing whether we have gained or not, the price we paid is not too high. At that time, your government officials also completely agreed. Now that you see that we have gained something and want us to keep some of the cultural relics, this approach It seems inappropriate, right? Joseph said seriously.
Yes! I know this! But professor, you must also understand the difficulties of our government. Our tourism in Egypt is our pillar industry, and the pyramid tourism is the most important thing! You are now excavating this The pyramids will definitely be developed for tourism in the future, and cultural relics are also part of tourism.
If so many cultural relics are excavated in our country, and we have nothing to gain, we have no way to explain to our people! Therefore, we are also willing to pay a price for you to agree to leave a hundred cultural relics. These costs are negotiable! Aria said seriously.
We understand this situation, but you have to talk to our investor about this matter, and all the gains here belong to him! My team only has the right to research and publish papers! Let me introduce to you, this It's Mr. Lei, and he fully invested in our operation! Joseph introduced him to Arya after obtaining Lei Tiantang's approval.
I'm so sorry! I didn't know Mr. Lei for the first time! Welcome to Egypt! At this time, Aria realized that the Asian young man who had been sitting silently next to Joseph was the investor of this archaeological operation, so he Quickly stand up and shake hands with Lei Tiantang.
