Master Archaeologist

Chapter 9 What, the bones were dug up?
Time passed very quickly without knowing it.

Chen Han felt that it hadn't been long since he descended to Tanfang, but he heard waves of shouts from above Tanfang.

"had lunch!"

"Everyone, rest and rest!"

"Continue to dig after eating!"

Chen Han, who was busy digging the soil, raised his head to look at his watch, only to find that it was already past 11:40, and the sun had unknowingly climbed to the top of his head.

Wiping the fine sweat from his forehead, Chen Han temporarily put down the archaeological tools in his hand, touched the edge of the exploration square, and climbed up one step ahead of the others.

For Chen Han, there are only two things in life that he is most interested in.

Archeology and cooking!
People are iron, rice is steel, if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry!

Not to mention anything else, he is definitely the most active one!
When he rushed to the excavation site in the morning, he didn't forget to bring five big buns to eat on the way, and he didn't want to starve himself at all.

After clapping the dust on his hands, Chen Han quickly trotted to the temporary lunch spot next to the No. [-] construction site.

Several chefs invited from the village have already brought a large pot of rice to the shed.

The chefs in the village are all born in flowing water banquets, so don't expect the dishes to be so delicate.

However, in front of Chen Han, there were five large iron pots with a diameter of more than one meter. Each pot had one dish, and the steaming ones looked very attractive.

Seeing the nameplate of the archaeological institute hanging on Chen Han's chest, the chef wearing a white apron and a chef's hat immediately enthusiastically stuffed a large porcelain jar into Chen Han's arms.

"Big brother, eat whatever you want!"

Looking at the simple smile of the big chef, Chen Han took a deep breath of the aroma, and pointed at several large pots with his hand.

"Braised pork, stir-fried vegetables, pork ribs and roast chicken!"

Three spoonfuls full of vegetables crashed into the porcelain jar in Chen Han's hand.

The big brother chef still looked like he was afraid that he didn't give enough, and kept asking: "Is it enough, if not enough, another spoonful?"

"These archaeologists are all working in a big culture. The secretary has explained that they must be entertained."

"And I heard from the secretary that the graves you dug here are amazing, what kind of archaeological park or museum can you build in the future!"

"At that time, our Lajia Village will be able to make a lot of money."

"Hey!" Zhuang Yunpeng, who followed Chen Han and was also very active in cooking, said in surprise: "Yes, your village party secretary knows a lot, and the pattern is very big!"

For a large Late Neolithic site like the Lajia site, after the initial excavation is completed, the local government will definitely not let go of this good opportunity for tourism.

If the city's finances are not enough, go to the province's finances.

In any case, a series of cultural and creative work must be carried out around the Lajia ruins. Smaller ones will build cultural and creative villages, and larger ones will build archaeological parks or museums.

As long as this thing can be completed, coupled with the promotion of new archaeological discoveries, at least in the next ten or twenty years, it can bring rich tourism income to Lajia Village!
It is indeed able to improve the local economic level of Lajia Village!
But it is not easy for a village secretary to think of all these at once, and he has a very far-sighted vision.

Sure enough, the chef brother touched the back of his head and smiled honestly: "That's not true, the village secretary is a college student village official, who has studied in a university in a big city."

"It's amazing. Since the secretary came to our Lajia Village, the life in the village has become better and better every day!"

It turned out to be a college student village official.

Chen Han nodded clearly.

Contemporary college students, regardless of whether their professional ability is good or not, have seen a lot of the world, and have absorbed all kinds of fragmented information flooded on the Internet. It is not surprising to think of these.

Holding a large porcelain jar, Chen Han casually took a few large white steamed buns from the basket placed next to the cauldron, then turned around and walked to the temporary table and chairs, and Kaka started building them.

The staple food in Lajia Village is mainly wheat, and it is not easy to find enough rice for a while.

So for the time being, the southerners in the archaeological team have to be wronged, and they have to follow the customs of the countryside and eat steamed buns, and there are no crystal grains of rice to eat.

Chen Han is from the south and grew up eating rice.

However, as a big foodie, he never refuses anyone, and he eats rice and wheat very deliciously.

After a while, one after another, colleagues from the Institute of Archaeology, Academy of Social Sciences, sat near Chen Han.

Seeing his contagious eating, everyone felt a sense of appetite.

"Young is good, you can eat and sleep." Kong Jianwen, who has no appetite, feels full just by watching Chen Han eat.

He picked up his own thermos, took a sip of tea comfortably, looked around the archaeologists he had brought, and said leisurely, "How about it, did you find any results after a morning's excavation?"

In fact, Kong Jianwen knew that at the beginning of the excavation, the results must not be produced so quickly. It was just a casual chat during the meal, just to start a topic.

But everyone dare not take it seriously.

Kong Jianwen is the deputy director of the Institute of Archeology of the Academy of Social Sciences, and also the director of the Prehistoric Archeology Research Office.

A serious industry boss!
The archaeologists present, whether they were his students or his researchers, were immediately refreshed.

Zhang Ting, an associate researcher in charge of the excavation of the F3 house site, said quickly:
"Director Kong, we found a skeleton in the F3 house, but we haven't cleaned it up yet, and it will take a day or two."

Tian Desan, a veteran researcher sitting next to him and also a professor in the Department of Archeology of Peking University, also said with a smile: "Old Chen, we have found a few traces of pottery in the F10 house for the time being, but we still need to follow up." further exploration."

"What about you, what's going on?"

Kong Jianwen shrugged: "No, this is just the beginning, and the soil layer has not been cleaned up yet."

"Xiao Zhuang, what's the situation with you?"

Zhuang Yunpeng, who was asked the question, quickly put down the steamed bun in his hand, and said honestly: "Teacher, we haven't found any important results at the F4 site for the time being."

"However, just like Teacher Zhang's side, skeletons were also found in the F4 house site, but only a small leg bone was exposed, and it will not be cleaned out for a while."

Chen Han, who was burying his head in the binge eating, suddenly raised his head and looked at his senior brother.

Bones found in the pit? !

I do not know how?
He hurriedly asked: "Brother, when did you find the skeleton?"

Zhuang Yunpeng rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "I just found out, and I haven't had time to tell you, you kid is in a hurry to come here to cook."

Whoops, I found it!
Chen Han immediately sped up his eating speed, devoured the contents of the bowl, picked up the porcelain jar and stood up with a bang.

"Brother, teacher, I'm going back to the construction site first, you guys take your time!"

After Chen Han said these words, he ran towards the F4 house without looking back.

In the blink of an eye, people will disappear.

Kong Jianwen hurriedly stood up, and shouted at his back: "Xiao Chen! It's hot at noon, so rest for two hours first, and there's still time to continue digging in the afternoon!"

Unfortunately, by the time he finished shouting, Chen Han had already run away.

Kong Jianwen shook his head and laughed, and sat back helplessly.

"This young man is full of drive."
