Chapter 556
After a burst of exclamations, several Englishmen were stunned.
Including the deputy director of the British Museum, this one couldn't help but nod.
"You are right, Sean, the discovery
of these precious manuscripts of Shakespeare will indeed change many things" "Anyone or institution who obtains these precious manuscripts will become an academic authority in related research fields
" "There is no doubt that these Shakespeare manuscripts are priceless and of great historical and cultural research value"
Hearing this, Prince William and others nodded.
Clearly, they all felt the same way and recognized the immense value of Shakespeare's manuscripts.
Xiao Ran smiled softly, and then continued:
"I am going to take it out to exchange the Dunhuang scriptures in Stein's secret room
, not only these manuscripts of Shakespeare" "The historical documents of the Plantagenet family found before are also among the trades, and the value of these historical documents should be clear to you" "The Plantagenet
family ruled Britain for hundreds of years, and everyone thought that the bloodline of this family had been severed, but this was not the case"
These Plantagenet family history documents record a lot of unknown secrets, which are worth studying,"
several Englishmen on the opposite side exclaimed in unison.
Prince William's eyes, especially brightened, shining.
His main goal in Boston was the historical documentation of the Plantagenet family.
There is also the golden tomahawk scepter of Richard the Lionheart and the golden crown of the plantagenet, as well as the Plantagenet family genealogy.
Compared to these things, Shakespeare's manuscripts are not so important that they can even be abandoned!
Prince William knows very well how important these relics of the Plantagenet family are to the British royal family!
If these things are not successfully taken, they will fall into the hands of some malicious guys, or in the hands of the US government.
In that case, they will become a huge hidden danger, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
When the Windsor dynasty dies, or is made extinct, trouble will come.
At that time, someone may introduce a so-called descendant of the Plantagenet family, under the banner of the Plantagenet family, to steal the British throne.
Something like this has happened more than once in British history.
The current British royal family does not want to see such history repeat itself, and it is never willing to give up the British throne.
Because of this, Prince William will come to Boston as soon as possible to try to take down the relics of the Plantagenet family and eliminate security risks.
"Sean, since you mentioned the historical documents of the Plantagenet family, can you let us see it?"
"Only after reading those historical documents and determining their authenticity and value can we decide whether to trade with you,"
Prince William said eagerly, with anticipation.
Xiao Ran looked at the other party, then smiled and nodded and said:
"Of course, no problem, His Royal Highness, I took some documents today, you can take a look
" "But before looking at this part of the historical documents, I need to take back these precious manuscripts of Shakespeare
" "There should be no doubt about the authenticity of these manuscripts, I believe you also recognize their value"
said, He pointed to the precious manuscripts in Prince William's hand.
Prince William paused, then nodded and said:
"No problem, of course you can take back these precious manuscripts
" "Until the deal is officially concluded, these manuscripts of Shakespeare still belong to you"
While sleeping these words, Prince William closed the yellowed manuscript and handed it over reluctantly.
Not only him, but also several other Englishmen all had the same expression, all with reluctance.
Xiao Ran reached out and took the pile of manuscripts, briefly sorted them out, and put them back in the portable safe.
Immediately afterwards, he took out a file bag from the safe and handed it to Prince William.
"Your Royal Highness, here are some historical documents about
the Plantagenet family" "These materials involve some Plantagenet family secrets, I recommend that you read them alone
" Prince William took the file bag, paused for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Okay, Sean, I am very interested in these historical documents"
said, and he sat back in his chair.
Then gently open the bag and start looking at the historical documents in the bag.
The Britons on the left and right looked curiously at the yellowed historical documents.
But they were very knowledgeable and did not come up to check the materials.
They know in their hearts that some things are better not to know, otherwise they are asking for trouble.
The room fell silent, and everyone looked at Prince William and the yellowed historical documents.
In just a moment's effort, Prince William's face suddenly changed and became extremely solemn.
But he didn't say anything more, just rounded his eyes and looked at the document in his hand.
Obviously, the contents of that historical document brought him a lot of shock.
Seeing this scene, a smug smile immediately flashed in Xiao Ran's eyes.
After another moment, he smiled and said,
"How? Your Royal Highness, is the weight of these Plantagenet family historical documents enough?
"What you are seeing now is only part of the materials, and the rest of the documents may contain more important things
" "Shakespeare's manuscripts, plus the historical documents of the Plantagenet family, I believe that we can definitely exchange those Dunhuang scriptures in Stein's secret room"
Hearing this, Prince William immediately looked up and closed the document in his hand.
However, he did not immediately respond.
After pondering for a while, he nodded and said:
"It is undeniable, Sean, these historical documents of the Plantagenet family are indeed very important and precious
" "Especially for our royal family, they have a very special meaning, and we are willing to pay a certain price to recover these materials
" "However, whether this heavyweight art deal can be concluded, I can't say a word, and I have to discuss with the British Museum"
The Dunhuang Canon in Stein's Chamber is an important collection of the British Museum, and whether they agree to the transaction depends on their decision" Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, and then said:
"I understand what you mean, Your Royal Highness, and at the same time, I also believe that the British Museum will agree to this deal
" "The Dunhuang Canon in Stein's Chamber has almost never been exhibited, and the British Museum has electronic documents"
Instead of putting those Dunhuang canons in the warehouse to eat ashes, it is better to take them out and trade, so that you can kill more with one stone,"
Hearing this, Prince William and the others nodded.
Obviously, these Britons are moved.
Looking at the deputy director of the British Museum, he was a little hesitant, or undecided.
Xiao Ran looked at this person and continued with a smile:
"Through the transaction, the British Museum can obtain a large number of Shakespearean play manuscripts, which will become the treasures
of the British Museum" "At the same time, the British royal family will get the historical documents of the Plantagenet family, so why not kill a lot of good things?"
The words fell, and the scene suddenly became quiet again.
Everyone looked at the deputy director of the British Museum, waiting for him to make a decision.
After a while, the Englishman said
: "Sean, whether to trade with you, I need to discuss with the curator and others before I can make a decision
" Hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately nodded and responded:
"Of course, no problem, you can video connect with the director of the British Museum and others here, or you can go to the lounge next to you to call, we can wait"
Saying, he pointed to the door of the lounge.
The deputy director of the British Museum turned his head to look over there
, and then got up and said: "I'll call first, report the situation, and then talk about the video connection
" "Okay, you are casual"
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded and said, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Later, the deputy director of the British Museum and a member of Prince William's entourage walked into the lounge to make a phone call.
As soon as they walked away, Prince William suddenly asked curiously:
"Sean, as far as I know, among the relics of the Plantagenet family, there is also a parchment map and a few title deeds
" "Can you show me that map and those title deeds?" I'm interested
in those things" "If those things really have to do with the Plantagenet family, I hope they can be included in the deal"
Sean shook his head firmly.
"I'm very sorry, Your Royal Highness
, that parchment map and a few title deeds now belong entirely to me, and the interests of the City of Boston have been bought by me" "I am a professional treasure hunter, and I am very interested in the contents of that parchment map and a few title deeds, and may go to England to explore it when I have the opportunity
" "In view of this, I will not sell the parchment map and the title deeds, they are not among the tradable items"
Hearing this, the eyes of everyone at the scene suddenly lit up.
"You're going to explore England, could it be that the parchment map is a treasure map?"
Prince William asked with bright eyes.
The rest of the people were the same, all full of curiosity.
Xiao Ran looked at these guys, and then nodded.
"This possibility is not ruled out, but the possibility is not high!"
With his words, the scene suddenly became more lively.
