Capítulo 32: Fang asks
It is interesting that the Ministry of Culture for all 120 years of the existence of Small-An, first as a colony of the second empire, and then for 35 years of an independent country, did not pay attention to this object, Dara thought. Strange people.
I've already found artifacts for 25-30 thousand dollars in 1 hour. Are they so stupid or kapushi? after all, all methods of detecting historical objects were described already in 1958-1967 for aerial photography and space photography. Not to mention the methods of additional data retrieval by toponymic features, they were described by geologists in 1974-1978.
Go and search, find! Idiots! How much time did they miss ?!
Having no money, power, influence and huge opportunities that people from the Ministry of Culture and the center for the protection of cultural heritage had, and having only an android and google maps, Dara was able to find about 20 unknown ruins that did not appear in Cultural Heritage Register! Amazing
"In this place you will need to stay longer, apparently you need to make pits! There can be a lot of interesting finds. The main thing is that for now I come across ordinary household things that are not cultural heritage sites, which means I can just share 50 to 50 percent with find with the owner of the earth "! Woo Dara's palms became wet with sweat! Eyes sparkled!
"I can become rich!" "It's a pity that the old laws passed like traces of the old empire when the land belonged supposedly to everyone, that is, to the people, and therefore to the state, and in the case, only to officials. It seems to be capitalism, but the laws remained the same, directed against private property!" thought Dara.
"In the meantime, check what's at the bottom of the well?" "Gold or silver can be raised, but only European, where" ligature "was added - that is, iron supplements, such things, a search magnet can raise. But pure gold and silver - alas ... this goes against the laws of physics. And it's a pity of course "?! thought to himself Dara.
"Although of course, you can use drones with scanners and cameras that can look through water and stone and brick walls. In 2000, such scanners and cameras were used only for military purposes and in 2005 for special battalions. But now in They also have a civilian version in 2030. How technologies are developing rapidly, and at the same time they become more affordable and cheaper. In 1999, a digital camera cost $ 35,000 and now you can buy it for $ 300. "Dara heard this information from Li-Bang, Uncle Fang.
Li-Ban, said that they have already created prototype drones at the company that have such cameras and scanners, they not only fly, but can also submerge underwater, engage in underwater archeology. It can search 1 meter deep!
"It's a pity there is no Fang! I would ask him, maybe he can get such a drone from his uncle?" thought Dara.
"There are so many gadgets now, it can easily simplify the search for data, artifacts, reveal secrets! But for some reason everyone loves to forbid us! Do not allow it! As indeed, it was during the period of isolationism in the Edo era in Japan, and we have observed this phenomenon since 17th century to the middle of the 19th century, and then for 70 years, only the last 40 years everything has changed a little, "Dara thought with regret.
There was a lot of gold and silver in the country, but it was simply thrown away. Since then there was a monopoly on who could deal with precious metals and who could not.
Dara remembered the story of their teacher of information techniques in history. The professor said that during the second empire, he worked in the design bureau of heavy engineering. They had a lot of old electronics. Televisions, refrigerators, old computers, as big as three cabinets with magnetic tape. The director of their design bureau wanted to earn money so that they would not throw away precious metal in vain. He ordered to pull out boards, wires and smelter gold and silver. In one year they managed to collect 20 kg of gold and 300 kg of silver. When the KB went to sell precious metals to the jewelry store, then a day later they came from the People's Commissariat of State Security ... they asked where the gold came from When the director explained that they smelted it from old appliances, the Naromat employees were very surprised! But the director did not have permission to do this, so the investigation was carried out for six months, the director and his employees were hardly sent to cut down the forest. Gold and silver were seized in favor of the state, a fine was imposed on the director in the amount of his 3-month salary, removed from office, handed down a severe reprimand. Since then, we laughed bitterly at the computer science lecturer, old appliances were simply thrown away so as not to fall into such an unpleasant story again.
We have never appreciated the innovators, those who cared about saving resources ... it's easier to throw away and not mess with problems.
Yes ... what can I say, it's shitty when good undertakings are not appreciated, and for this you can still go felling the forest for 10 years in the cold zone!
Therefore, we had, said a foreign language teacher, such sayings:
- Do not get out - will kill
- The initiative is punishable
- Damage- The time to execute is canceled.
We did not like the initiative, the active, they promoted the passive, ready to agree with the bosses about everything, the main thing was to be loyal, and everything else was in second or even third place.
When the borders were opened, those whom we crushed left. Now they are rich and respected people there, and who remained at home, alas, the situation has not changed, even with the fall of the empire. Therefore, geniuses just quietly died in poverty, but in their homeland. Nobody used their inventions, although some stole and sold in the EU. On this, someone made millions of dollars, on plagiarism! And they got away with it!
"But the past is the past, and I would have to see what is interesting at the bottom of the well. Judging by its masonry, it has an ancient history of at least 400 years if not more.
And interestingly, it seems that the well is partly of natural origin, "said Dara aloud, looking into the well and dedicating a lantern into it.
The well was about 7-8 meters deep, part of its walls were stone like in an underground cave and the upper part was lined with ancient brick. It was 35 centimeters long, its width was difficult to determine, and its height was 7 cm. This type of bricks was known in the 15-16 centuries, as far as Dara remembered from the courses on the history of the Middle Ages.
The mountains were made of limestone, basalt and slate. That is, the best conditions for the formation of karst caves. Perhaps the current well, about 600 years ago, was a karst cave with a source, then about 500 years ago the top of the cave collapsed from an earthquake, say. A well was formed, which the highlanders began to use. Then, a fortress was built around it, and in more peaceful times it was ceased in a caravanserai. And that could be. To learn more, you need to drip in the archives, read manuscripts in Arabic and Persian. But climbing into archives is always fraught. Since in any repository of knowledge, there are their custodians. As it has been since the times of the second empire, these custodians had ranks and worked in addition to the archive in the "information" department of the security agency. Therefore, any research that was looking for what information immediately went in the form of an analytical report to the agency. If the research topic seemed suspicious, the researchers could secretly check, establish surveillance for 1-4 months and even establish a secret listening to his conversations, with whom and he is talking. Opening of correspondence. To hell with this ??? It is easier to search for data in electronic libraries. Of course, now the times are different, there is no iron curtain, but who knows? If the old laws on public utilities have remained since the time of the second empire, who can guarantee that the anachronisms of the second empire have not remained in the archives? Treasure hunters need this the least.

- Well, what are you doing nonsense? Why quietly ran away and did not wait for me! Tricky face! suddenly a cheerful but slightly evil voice came.
It was bro! Fang!
"uh, why are you ... well, you were sleeping, I didn't want to wake you up" began to mumble a little scared, a little guilty of Dara.
- show what dug out! Fool! said Fang.
"And how do you know? Ahh ... I understand, this is your companion ... well, you give brothers," Dara understood.
- Do not languish the soul, show? Fang said demandingly.
"Well, firstly there are a lot of coins, about 30! Silver and copper! 17-18 century! At least you can make $ 14,000 at auction for them, silver scrap and jewelry made of semiprecious stones, another $ 20,000. A couple of copper appliances , buttons, iron nails. It seems a clue to the number 47086_1, found in the corner of the buildings "shared the finds of Dara.
- Where? Fang asked shortly.
- Three mountain gorges!
