    This is a very old box. As far as the box is concerned, it has no value at all. It is just the product of an ordinary craftsman.

    Jiang Le opened the box carefully and immediately saw several items inside:

    A black and white photo that is yellowed and has missing corners. Although the photo has become very blurry due to age, you can still vaguely see that the person in the photo is an aristocratic man. I don¡¯t know that this man is related to Count Pilsen.  what relationship.

    A rolled-up sheepskin picture looks amazing. Even if Jiang Le is not a professional connoisseur, he can still feel the antiquity of this sheepskin picture.

    A telescopic telescopic telescope made of brass and a black envelope.

    This is all the items in the box.

    Jiang Le did not check it, but looked at Count Pilsen and asked: "Mr. Count, please don't ask me to guess riddles. Just tell me what your commission is."

    "This box contains all the belongings of my great-great-grandfather. He was a nobleman of Great Britain in the 16th century and the leader of the British bourgeoisie. He controlled 70% of the ocean-going companies." Bilson showed a trace of nostalgia on his expression.

    His great-great-grandfather was so arrogant that by his generation he could only be an ordinary earl, which could only be regarded as the decline of the family.

    "Before 395 AD, the southeastern part of the island of Great Britain was ruled by the Roman Empire. You should know about the Roman Empire. It was the most powerful European empire in history. The Mediterranean was its back garden, spanning the three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa. In its heyday  Controlling nearly 5 million square kilometers of land, he is the unscrupulous overlord of Europe.

    However, the empire eventually collapsed. The Roman Empire later split into Western Rome and Eastern Rome. Each country held half of the land, but the territory of the empire continued to shrink. Finally, Western Rome was invaded by the Germans and perished.  Germanic kingdoms were established. After the fall of Western Rome, Eastern Rome became the only successor to the Roman Empire.

    In 1453, Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, was captured by Sultan Mehmet II of the Ottoman Empire. In 1460, the Eastern Roman territory in Morea was occupied by the Ottoman Empire. In 1461, the Ottoman Empire took action again, and the Eastern Roman Empire was forever  Withdrew from the stage of history, and now the land has been disintegrated into countries such as Austria and the Rhine Confederation.  "

    Jiang Le listened carefully to Bilson's words. As a count, it was impossible for him to specifically ask the housekeeper to invite an outsider to come and popularize historical knowledge. His commission must be hidden in these many words, and every sentence was a clue.

    "My great-great-grandfather was not an Englishman born and raised in Great Britain, but a person who migrated from Rome. His ancestors were senators of the Western Roman Empire."

    Upon hearing this, Jiang Le was instantly shocked. During the Roman Empire, there were two very famous forces, namely the Senate and the Roman People's Assembly. The Senate was the political authority of ancient Rome and was composed of wealthy and aristocratic elders of the clan.  , also known as the Council of Elders, has the power to assist the emperor in managing the entire country.

    Being able to become a member of the Senate, this ancestor of Count Pilsen is really extraordinary, both in terms of power and status, it is terrifying and astonishing.

    "My great-great-grandfather's ancestors witnessed the Western Roman Empire being invaded by the 'barbarian' Germanic troops into Italy, besieging the city of Rome, opening the city gates with the cooperation of the slaves in the city, and plundering the entire city's wealth. On the land of the Western Roman Empire,  After establishing the Gothic Kingdom, those barbarians collected all the treasures of the former Western Roman Empire, and when the Gothic Kingdom fell, they took all the treasures away and sailed them into the Atlantic Ocean. He spent his whole life on going to sea.  The search for the whereabouts of those treasures did not yield much results, and the task of searching for these treasures was passed down from generation to generation in our family, until my generation."

    Bilson looked at the box held by Jiang Le and couldn't help but reveal a trace of nostalgia in his tone: "I have invited many explorers to help me complete this matter, but the final result is the same. No one can  Find the location of those treasures for me. I asked Chris to invite you here today for this reason. Mr. Jiang Le, I can feel that you are different from those adventurers. You are a very powerful person. If it were you,  I believe you can do what my forefathers failed to do.¡±

    "This box contains all the clues your family has obtained from the Western Roman Empire to the present?" Jiang Le asked.

    "Yes."

    Jiang Le handed the box to Butler Chris and asked him to hold it for him, while he opened the parchment and looked at the things recorded on it. As expected, Jiang Le wrote down the parchment on the parchment.What's left is a chart of the Atlantic Ocean. Some areas planned with lines represent that this sea area has been explored by Bilson's family, and the unexplored sea areas still account for one-tenth of the entire Atlantic Ocean.  six.

    After countless generations of hard work, we can barely explore four-tenths of the Atlantic Ocean. This shows how difficult this inherited work is.

    "Mr. Bilson, I can take over your commission, but there is no guarantee that it will be completed in the end." Jiang Le said sincerely: "After all, this is a matter of finding a needle in a haystack, and it is a family business that has spanned nearly a thousand years.  ."
