The answer is close!

It's interesting that on the topographic map villages with the names "Miskol" (in Farsi means Zolotnik), Zar-rabat (Zolotoy caravanserai), Zarin-kishlok (gold village), Zahabun-rabat (Arabic - gold caravanserai or fortress) were marked ) Damage hudruy (Farsi - gold samobrodok), Yeouchi kabul (Farsi - sapphire), Zumrat Koni (Farsi - mine of emeralds). Fid-at-tun rabat (Arabic - silver caravanserai or fort). Haraboi kushi kushimi (Farsi-Ruins of an old castle). Hisn Kariatun (Arabic - Fort Village). Kazzun Su-kun (Arabic - silk bazaar) .Fundukunn (Arabic - hotel). Nur Ain (Source Light - Arabic). Maiman (Arabic - right wing of the army).

A bunch of weird names. Some were marked on the map as settlements in the mountains and foothills, others as ruins and mountain gorges.

Damn, where is it all to look for? On the old map, these names were on the new, probably they are not. How much trouble now will be. It is necessary to scan the old map, then digitize it, put on different layers, rivers, elevations, mountains, settlements, ruins, roads. But it was a hassle even in the years of the 00s, and now new technologies allow us to receive this data within 2 hours. Just need to scan everything with your phone. After overlaying data on a Google map with a satellite image. Find out the geolocation data and please - go and look!

The truth is not clear what to look for? Well, if you don't rack your brains, then we'll take the simplest thing, go to those places and stupidly ring out everything with a metal detector. Maybe we can find it? Or maybe this figure is there, magic 47086-1? Only maybe it is written in Arabic numerals? Or maybe Russian modern Arabic numerals? Who knows?

Interestingly, the one secret police officer, who was he? Why did not surrender the treasures to the state? Maybe it was a double agent - the emir of Bukhara and the British etymological intelligence. Which office was located in the city of Dehra Dun in the modern state of Uttar Pradesh. The office was from the middle of the 19th century to the beginning of the 30s of the 20th century. To Colidas Road? Or is it in Massouri? Or Nainital? Now for sure not to say. Yes, it doesn't matter now. Why didn't that agent use the topographic map? Maybe they opened it or did he run away? There are many questions, but few answers.

Okay, we won't bark, we'll just go and search! And then already in the city I got tired, I thought in his head Dara.
