Chapter 261 Peridot

Then Li Mo also squatted down and continued to clean up. There are still six black pottery jars buried in the ground, which should be the same as the first black pottery pot with ancient characters engraved on the outside.

"I dug up a bowl, hey, there are a few symbols on the outside of the bowl." A teacher suddenly called out, and the other teachers hurried over to see that there were indeed symbols.

"The black pottery with symbols are all stored together." Li Mo turned around and said.

After a while, the second black pottery vat slowly revealed half of its body, and there were also engraved patterns and responsible symbols on it. Unfortunately, a huge crack had appeared in this black pottery vat, and there was even a gap in one place, and the fragments were also broken. I don't know if it's around.

"Come two teachers, another black pottery jar with symbols has been unearthed here."

Immediately, two teachers came to the side. They squatted down and carefully looked at the symbols on the outside of the black pottery vat. One of them said happily: "Now it is basically confirmed that these complicated symbols should be ancient characters before oracle bone inscriptions. Student Li Mo, this The black pottery jar is damaged, let's clean it carefully."

The news that the second black pottery jar with symbols was unearthed lifted the spirits of the professor above. This is definitely good news.In the study of prehistoric characters, the History Department of Peking University is one step ahead.

Although there were cracks and damage, everyone still treated it as a priceless treasure and carefully cleaned the dirt inside and out.

When the third, fourth, and fifth black pottery jars were unearthed one after another, the cheers at the archaeological site never stopped.

Not only black pottery jars, other teachers also made new discoveries. Seven black pottery pottery with ancient characters have been unearthed, including bowls, basins, and cups, and one of them is actually an eggshell black pottery cup.

"Xiao Mo, you go up and down first, I have something important to tell you." Professor Zhu shouted from above, and Li Mo got up and said to a teacher, "There is still a black pottery tank here, you clean it first, I will go up and have a look what's the matter."

"Student Li, just put your mind at ease."

When Li Mo came to the ground, he saw seniors, juniors and seniors all cleaning up the soil of the black pottery. Zhu Changping came to him and said with a strange expression: "The superior asked me to ask you, you Any ideas?"

"What do I think? What aspect are you referring to?" Li Mo was confused by this question, not knowing what the teacher meant.

"I didn't understand what I said excitedly. This is the case. These ancient symbols are preliminarily identified as ancient characters before oracle bone inscriptions. It is necessary to call all the ancient characters experts in China to decipher and analyze them. They will also conduct systematic analysis and research on them, Yunshan The county doesn’t have any hardware or software, so it’s definitely not suitable, so the superiors want to transport them to Kyoto. They will take the initiative to negotiate with local leaders, and they will indeed plan to build a new museum in Yanjiao, Kyoto.”

"Teacher, do the leaders of the higher authorities still want my company to operate this new museum?"

"Just say that you are smart, and you can understand everything, that's exactly what you mean."

Li Mo is a bit embarrassed, this matter is not easy to handle.These black pottery are undoubtedly very precious. A museum will be built here later. If it is operated well, this new cultural site is likely to become a business card of Yunshan County, and it will also drive the development of tourism.

If the position was moved directly, this matter should cause quite a big commotion.

"Don't think about it too much. Yunshan County doesn't have the strength to build a museum. I don't know how much investment it will take. Even if the funds are raised, who will maintain these precious black pottery? Let all the experts do research here for a long time. Besides, the population of Yunshan County is relatively sparse, even if a museum is built, it may not be able to drive the economy of one side, and it will only become a drag on the local area for a long time."

"Is this what the superiors mean?"

"Yes."

"I don't have any ideas. As long as the place can be settled, I will arrange people to follow up on other things."

"That's fine, I'll report this matter first, and I can't make a decision on this matter for the time being."

At noon, the village director brought the food, and the large amount of food was enough to fill the stomach. Anyway, Li Mo's food standard was high.

Li Mo filled a large porcelain bowl with rice, topped with braised pork, spicy salted fish, and small green vegetables.He saw the village director squatting aside to eat and went to squat with him, and suddenly found that eating like this was quite enjoyable.

"Mr. Li, do you think these things are worth money?"

"It can no longer be measured by value, especially those black pottery with ancient characters can be said to be truly priceless. But don't worry too much, have you seen those soldiers standing guard? They are all hidden in their waists."

Li Mo gestured to lower the gun, and the village director immediately shrank his head and said with a naive smile: "Just curious, Mr. Li, you can eat more. Here, there is nothing else, but a lot of delicious food. I will give it to you tomorrow." Change to the other three meals, so that you can eat them for a week without repeating them."

The two were chatting while eating, and then they saw the old man Zhang Changgui coming over with a stainless steel teapot, poured a cup of warm water for Li Mo and the village director, and said enthusiastically, "Boss Li, what did you pay for the previous two days?" Is it time to end?"

"Old Zhang, what is the status of Mr. Li, and he can still send you a little money."

Li Mo smiled and pointed to the brown bear not far away: "You can ask him for it, but if you just deliver boiled water, you can only be paid one hundred yuan a day. And I often drink tea. The tea you use is I can tell the quality by taking a sip, so don't try to fool me with inferior tea, as long as I find out once, I won't let you boil water and deliver tea again."

"No, absolutely not." The old man Zhang Changgui grinned and brought water to others. After waiting for three minutes, he turned back and asked, "Boss Li, can I ask you a question?"

"If you want to know anything, just ask?"

Elder Zhang Changgui pointed to the black pottery placed on the ground and asked, "Is that valuable?"

"It's not worth much. There are similar pottery for sale in some antique markets in Kyoto. It's probably more than ten yuan each."

"Oh, it's only ten yuan."

The old man Zhang Changgui seemed to be relieved. He had dug up three of them in the field before. He didn't know what they were at the time, but they were taken away by relatives.If it is very valuable, then he doesn't know how long he will be distressed.

In the afternoon, as the work progressed, more and more black pottery was unearthed from the pit, and under Li Mo's command, it began to expand around the pit.

And the six new pits were also dug to a depth of about three meters, and one of them dug out a black pottery basin broken into several petals during the digging process.

"Little Mo, are you trying to determine the approximate range?"

Professor Zhu Changping understood his intention at a glance. Li Mo nodded and entered a new pit. The items sold here were not pottery. Under his perspective with different pupils, those things were the size of a knuckle. irregular shape.

He started digging with a shovel, and when he dug down about half a meter, he suddenly found a few small green stones in the excavated soil.

Picking up a small stone and looking at it, I don't know what kind of stone it is.He picked up several green stones of different sizes, brought them to the ground, handed them to Zhu Changping and asked, "Teacher, do you know this stone?"

Zhu Changping picked up one and looked at it carefully and said, "This is peridot."
