The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

? When all the things that needed to be sent by express were finished, the three of them took a taxi. Head to the Fairmont Four Seasons Hotel on the shores of Lake Alster.

I haven't taken a good bath for several days. Although I have changed clothes in the warehouse in the port area, I still need to find a hotel with sufficient conditions to take a good rest.

All three of them are exhausted enough these days-over 1,500 pictures!

After moving in smoothly, Zhang Nan didn't take a bath first, but made a call to Long Island Manor. It was still morning in New York, and Nicole hadn't gone out to the Empire State Building office yet.

"Nicole, I have just sent two packages from Hamburg today, one is FedEx and the other is a dhl courier. Things are very important! You confess to the bodyguard on duty, and these two couriers will be delivered to you as soon as they arrive. Or Jenny, lock it in the safe and don't open it. I'll talk about it when I come back."

In fact, even if Nicole and others want to open it, it takes a bit of effort-they are all paper items. The courier company only determines the ingredients when receiving the goods, but no matter what the text content is in you.

Because it is a high-value insurance policy and a high-paid express delivery note, the packaging is not an ordinary cardboard box or large envelope, but a fire-proof and waterproof sealed box with a lock.

If so, it would be in the bag that Zhang Nan carried with him.

On the other side, Nicole was also very happy to receive a call from her lover: Zhang Nan has been expressing things from Europe back to New York during this period, many of which are gifts for the two and the artwork that decorates the manor.

However, this is the first time to solemnly explain the importance of a certain item, especially since the two major express companies are transporting them separately, but they do not violate the regulations of air transportation. These two items are obviously extremely important and special.

No need to ask, Nicole knows the importance.

"Understood my dear, are you still in Germany now?"

"Well, staying at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hamburg, you will contact to book a flight ticket to Moscow later."

Upon hearing this, Nicole said: "I checked it two days ago. It seems that Hamburg does not have a plane to the Soviet Union. If you want to go to the Soviet Union in West Germany, you can only go to Frankfurt or West Berlin by plane."

"It doesn't matter. I was just about to see the Berlin Wall. I guess it will take a few days to book a ticket."

"Be careful, I heard it's terrible over there!"

"Horrible", Nicole is not referring to the Soviet Union, but the location near the Berlin Wall, which is not a good place to visit.

There are too many legends about the Berlin Wall. The American propaganda machines have always spared no effort to slander the Soviet Union and Eastern European blocs!

In particular, the Berlin Wall, which has a lot of grievances, attracts the attention of the United States and the entire Western media every time there is a turmoil.

After so many years of publicity, it has gone deep into the bones.

"Don't worry, my dear, I know that the Berlin Wall is on the territory of East Germany, so I won't run over and get shot by myself."

In fact, Zhang Nan is a bit exaggerated: The Berlin Wall, officially called the "Anti-Fascist Defense Wall", is the border defense system established by the German Democratic Republic on its own territory around the border of West Berlin.

It was not built close to the border between East and West Germany, and the wall was still a short distance away from the territory of West Germany.

There are so many legends about the Berlin Wall, the most terrifying one is true: East German residents will be shot and killed if they sneak into West Germany! But even so, there have always been people who flee to West Germany for more than two decades!

There are many ways to cross the Berlin Wall. One of them was used only once or only once, but the guards were stunned and unable to respond: Someone saw that the steel crossbar at the border gate was not particularly low when it was lowered, so they went to find a car. A short enough sports car, a throttle rushed over while waiting to check the pass!

However, this method of rushing through a throttle is only possible in very few levels in East and West Berlin, because today's Berlin Wall is not a simple wall at all, it is completely a mature border defense system!

The Berlin Wall between East and West Berlin is actually two parallel walls, separated by a distance of about 150 meters. The area in between is the so-called "death zone"!

There are police dogs, lookout machine gun towers, floodlights, searchlights, barbed wire, anti-vehicle barriers, and armed guards in the death zone.

Many people who stole across the Berlin Wall passed through the first wall, and then died in this short death zone!

This 96-mile, or 155-kilometer-long border encircled the entire West Berlin, isolating it from East Berlin and the surrounding East German countryside.

Not only was this Berlin Wall blocking the way for East Germans to go to West Germany, but another barrier on the border between the two countries was even more exaggerated: along the 850-mile-long border between East and West Germany, another defense system built by East Germany. It completely blocked the passage of the East Germans to the west-there were more than 1 million landmines buried along the route alone!

In fact, all this is to prevent East Germans from fleeing, not to prevent others from breaking into East Germany. So like the Berlin Wall in East Berlin, even if people on the West Berlin side are close to the Berlin Wall and have already stepped on East German territory, as long as they don’t try to climb or destroy the Berlin Wall, the East German soldiers in the machine gun tower on the wall will not. Ignore, ignore.

It's just that the general West Berliners don't like to hang around there-looking at the wall is uncomfortable and holding their breath!

However, because of the depth of Berlin in the East German territory, West Berlin is a West German enclave surrounded by East German territories. Therefore, according to the relevant agreement, West Berliners can drive through several roads on the ground that have been confirmed by the agreement and cross the East German territory. Go to other parts of West Germany.

This gave some East Germans hope to escape from East Germany: the driver of that super short sports car was not East German, but the girlfriend who was sitting next to him ran away as soon as he stepped on the accelerator.

Someone has counted that after the construction of the Berlin Wall was officially completed, more than 5,000 people managed to escape from East Germany in a variety of ways: hiding in secret compartments in cars driven by West Germans; flying over the Berlin Wall using hot air balloons; passing West Berliners Tunnels dug under the Berlin Wall; swimming across Berlin’s canals or rivers; or just crossing the border directly; the most weird thing is to launch yourself as a cannonball into a homemade catapult!

There are various ways! In the beginning, the Berlin Wall had only one wall, and several places were still close to the buildings of East Germany, and the distance between them was less than one meter!

The person here ran up to the third floor, leaped hard and passed! Of course, many people have broken their legs. Every time they encounter something like this, the residents of West Berlin will come to rescue immediately to prevent the sentry from crossing the border and shooting.

Later, the houses of the East German government close to the Berlin Wall were demolished and the "death zone" was built!

Successful with good luck, but also a lot of bad luck! Hundreds or thousands of people were killed while trying to escape East Germany, and many others were imprisoned.

The question of how many people died while crossing the border between East and West Germany ~ www.readwn.com ~ may never be understood in the end.

So as soon as you heard about the flight issue, Zhang Nan decided to go to West Berlin for a transfer-he was reborn, and he also arrived in Germany. It would be a pity not to see the Berlin Wall!

Sure enough, after the shower, Xiang Weirong and Guan Xingquan talked about it, and both agreed to go to Berlin for a transfer.

These two have deeper "feelings" for the Berlin Wall than Zhang Nan, and that is definitely a strange existence in the socialist world. Chinese people, especially those who have served as soldiers, can be described as thunderous to it!

If you have a chance to check it out, you can't hurry up!

"Actually, we should go to Neuschwanstein Castle when we are in Munich. We can only go to the next time."

Upon hearing Zhang Nan's words, Xiang Weirong said: "You should go with the girl. The hotel has promotional materials for the castle. It's pretty. The three big masters dangled and hindered the scenery.

But Anan, your sister said that you have so many girlfriends last time, what about Ali and Xiaoxu? "

Zhang Nan smiled bitterly, "Let's talk about it, at best, the king can't see the king." (To be continued.)
