Proper Name

Whether it was Gao Ke and the rest or Jack, the name of Arsinoe II was so strange that none of them had heard of it.

"Jeff, Arsi... How do I pronounce the word 'nuo' for Egyptian?" Jack asked. "I don't know how to translate it."

"Arsinoe II, that is, Arsinoe the second—this pronunciation, I'm not sure if it's accurate or not, but it's this meaning," Zhang Zian said.

Jack translated his words for the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper shook his head like a rattle drum. "If you're kidding, distinguished Chinese guest, this joke is not funny at all—I've never heard the name of Arsinoe II, let alone confused her with Cleopatra, the queen of Egypt."

When Zhang Zian spoke, he had already searched for the owner of the name on his mobile phone and said, "This person lived 200 years earlier than Cleopatra, a queen in the early Ptolemaic dynasty. She is not famous, but she does exist in history. This full-body statue is based on her."
