Live appraising treasures, I became a national treasure expert?

Chapter 150 Too Profound

"Bah..."

The taxi stopped at the entrance of the School of Humanities, and Li Dingan got out of the car.

The security guard took a quick look at him, then checked his student ID card and let him go.Then he lifted the box with his left hand, carried the box on his right shoulder and walked in, muttering as he walked: Is it weird?

Professor Wu didn't answer the phone, neither did Gao Shengdong and Bai Ru?
Is it a meeting?

Fortunately, the Wenbo College is not too far from the school gate, only seven or eight hundred meters away, and he is strong enough.

In about five or six minutes, he bypassed the Red Lake.

There are many cars parked in the yard, including Audi, business, and a Coaster.Li Ding'an didn't care either, and walked towards the Wenbo Building with his things on his back.

The porcelain research room was on the second floor, and it was full of people.There is a booth near the front, on which there are many enamel colors, including porcelain, bronze ware, feeding utensils, and several enamel jars from the Republic of China and the early founding of the People's Republic of China.

Professor Wu was explaining, while Dean Ding was standing on the side, and there were several people standing nearby, including the deputy dean of the School of Humanities, leaders of the department, reviewers and relevant experts.

Today, the Ministry is accepting the project of "Enamel Related Research in Ming, Qing, and Republic of China" of Beijing University, so Wang Yongqian, Xiang Zhiqing, Chen Shucai, and Ma Xianming are all there.

After speaking roughly, Wu Xiang paused for a moment. Next, the experts gave speeches, relevant personnel offered their opinions, and then a collegiate rating was made.

Not surprisingly, it means that the audit has passed.

Uncle Chen was the leader of the expert group for this inspection. He was holding the materials and was about to speak, but the leader pointed out the window: "Dean Xiao, that's your student. What are you memorizing?"

Vice President Xiao glanced out and couldn't help being stunned.

No wonder the leader is weird, it’s just that this image is too eye-catching: a bag in his hand, a bag on his shoulder, and a leather document bag around his neck... His face is also sweaty, and he looks very tired at first glance. strenuous.

What is this for, moving?

Looking at the appearance, I don't have any impression... But with the student ID card hanging on his chest, he must be a student of the Wenbo College...

Thinking about it, he nodded: "Yes, Secretary Cheng!"

At the same time, everyone looked out, Wang Yongqian narrowed his eyes: "Why do you look... like Li Dingan, what is he doing?"

Xiang Zhiqing was also happy: "It's Li Ding'an... He was still in Hangzhou yesterday, and he said he found a pair of long blessing crowns that belonged to the Empress Dowager Xiaojing in the Qing Dynasty... But the long blessing crowns are not so big, so they should have found other things. "

Uncle Chen stretched his neck: "It looks quite heavy..."

"Li Ding'an?

As soon as the leader heard the name, he knew who it was, and asked strangely, "Isn't he in charge of the project in the library? He went back to school? Why did he go to Hangzhou again?"

Professor Wu explained: "Director Cheng, it's like this: On Monday, the project he was in charge of passed the review, so I gave him a week off..."

Ma Xianming also quickly explained: "Leader, the main reason is that Teacher Li's research progress is too fast, and the researchers in the library and courtyard can't keep up with his progress, so we can only let him rest for a while..."

Director Cheng also remembered: he was the one who spoke to the curator and asked Wang Yongqian to lead a team to the National Expo for review.

Later, Wang Yongqian came back to report that the progress of Li Ding'an's independent research was nearly half a year faster than that of other librarians' collaborative research.

For this reason, he and the curator were still very strange for a while...

"Oh!"

The leader understood it, but the others were confused.

Students from the School of Archeology, doing research in the National Museum and the Forbidden City, and are still in charge of specific projects?
Director Ma also called him a teacher, so is he a student or a teacher?

And depending on the situation, not only Professor Xiang and Professor Chen know him, but Director Wang, and even the leaders know him?
Including Dean Xiao, who was also stunned: humanities... oh no, when did such a powerful student appear in the School of Arts and Sciences?

Seeing his suspicious expression, Dean Ding reminded him in a low voice: "Mongolian porcelain, pearl glaze..."

"oh oh……"

Dean Xiao suddenly realized: So it was him?

The school was still studying yesterday, what kind of award should be given to him...

Just as he was thinking about it, the leader spoke again: "Xiao Wang, go and ask him to come up, just in time to ask him about the pearl glaze project..."

The secretary nodded, turned and walked towards the door.

At the same time, Li Dingan also entered the building.

"Student Li, here...Professor Wu and the others are in the porcelain research room!"

Li Ding'an raised his head: a man in his 30s, wearing a white shirt, black pants and black leather shoes, was standing at the stairs and beckoning to him.

It feels a little raw.

But he didn't attend school for a few days in total. To be honest, he didn't even recognize all the professors and lecturers in the Porcelain Department, so he didn't care.

Nodding his head, he also took the initiative to greet: "Hello, teacher!"

The teacher's voice stunned the secretary.

The secretary was stunned for a moment, then smiled again: "Hi, student Li... Come, let me help you!"

"Thank you teacher..." Li Ding'an was not polite, and handed him the box, "You can just take this..."

"It's quite heavy... what is it?"

I brought it here because I wanted Wu Xiang to help me study it, and Li Ding'an didn't hide it: "It's a pure gold doll from the Southern Song Dynasty!"

A pure gold doll, or from the Southern Song Dynasty?

The secretary froze again.

The main power and responsibility of the leader is in the Ministry of Culture, and he also has a part-time job in the National Expo. As a secretary, don't understand too much.So it is clear that even if such a thing is not a national treasure, it is enough for the collection...

It must be Li Ding'an who bought it from Hangzhou, but being a student for this reason is also amazing.No wonder his name appeared so frequently in the Ministry during this time...

The secretary pointed to the box on his shoulder again: "What about this one?"

"It's a gilt and chiseled copper box!"

"It's also from the Southern Song Dynasty?"

"almost……"

Gee...

While talking, the two went upstairs and entered the porcelain research room together.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Dingan was taken aback: My good fellow, why are there so many people?

Take a closer look: Ma Xianming, Xiang Zhiqing, Chen Shucai, including Wang Yongqian, and several familiar or unfamiliar experts.

Looking again, there are a lot of enamel colors on the booth... Oh, it turned out that the superior department came to check and accept...

Subconsciously, he began to greet: "Director Wang, Professor Xiang, Professor Chen, Ma Suo..."

Everyone who knew him started to laugh, and the laugh was very strange: You are really welcome, ask the leader secretary to help carry things?

You know, this person's level is higher than Dean Ding's...

Noticing that Ma Xianming was winking at him, Li Ding'an realized that there was another person standing by the booth.

He looked again, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily: This is the first time seeing a real person, but there is a photo of this person in the leadership column of the National Expo Administration Building.

The last time Wang Yongqian said "If you want to do it, do it with confidence and boldness", I guess this is what he said...

Ouch……

He quickly put down the box: "Hi secretary!"

Good mental quality, not stage fright at all, this title is quite interesting...

The leader laughed immediately: "Going to pick up the leak again?"

Li Ding'an smiled embarrassedly: "I came across two more interesting objects..."

While speaking, everyone looked at the things on the ground.

Why is it so big?
Listen to the movement when you put it down, is it still heavy?
The things worthy of Li Ding'an's memorization to Beijing University must be extraordinary... For a moment, Ma Xianming thought of the two blue and white bowls, and subconsciously put them together.

Xiang Zhiqing and Chen Shucai also looked at each other with the same expression: surprise mixed with suspicion.

It's true that the two of them are old, but they are still blind, and they are wrapped in a sheet with a wide gap, and they can be seen at a glance: Bronze ware, is it so big?

Unless it is an imitation, no matter which dynasty, such a large bronze vessel can only be used for sacrifices. In short, it is a ritual vessel.

Li Ding'an is getting more and more fancy the more he plays, can he come across such things?

The two were secretly surprised, and came over instinctively: "What is it?"

Seeing the expressions of the two, Li Ding'an finally realized, and his heart skipped a beat: What's wrong?
If he knew the situation in the school like this, he wouldn't come if he was beaten to death... But who would have thought?

Thinking about it, he casually said, "Just a box!"

Bullshit!

If it's an ordinary thing, can you carry it to school?
Definitely trying to do sneaky research.

Ma Xianming rolled his eyes: "Open it and have a look?"

Ma, don't hurt me...

Li Ding'an winked: "It's really an ordinary thing..."

Ha ha……

Ma Xianming smiled but wasn't smiling, Xiang Zhiqing and Chen Shucai also stopped and stared at him strangely.

I'm going... What kind of look is this?
Could it be that you think this is contraband?
Li Ding'an is so helpless...Really, he just wanted to ask Professor Wu: Is there a way to get the best of both worlds, which can prove that the two things in his hand are genuine without causing too much or bad news? Influence?
That's why he quietly recited the things here instead of taking them to the National Expo or the Forbidden City.

But who would have thought that such bad luck, not only so many experts and scholars, but also leaders who specialize in this matter?
That's it... still want to control the impact?
Stop dreaming……

Silently sympathizing with a certain museum in the Northeast, Li Dingan sighed and tried to save it again: "It's really just two very ordinary things..."

They are all human beings, how can they be fooled by him, Xiang Zhiqing joked: "What are you doing with a guilty conscience? There is no need to emphasize so many times, we will see for ourselves..."

Chen Shucai also cheerfully asked: "Bronze ware?"

Li Dingan moved his lips.

Just say, how can there be a good thing if you want to eat mutton and don't want to make it smelly?
He didn't speak, sighed, first took out the file bag, and then untied the bed sheet.

Xiang Zhiqing took it over and took out the photocopies and photos: "Your inheritance documents are quite complete, including the transaction deeds of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the return list during the Third Plenary Session? Hey, it's still from the Xu family's collection in Shaoxing. rare..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Chen Shucai was startled, "This is a bronze box, but its shape is so weird, and there are cicada patterns... Eh, Ming Qi? Um, the picture of Shakyamuni's Nirvana..."

After a short pause, he "hissed" and said, "Is this... the royal tomb?"

Li Dingan was speechless.

You are almost seventy, why are your eyes so poisonous?

Chen Shucai's voice was not loud, but it was like throwing a stone the size of a millstone into the lake, splashing water all over the sky.

With a "swish", everyone was refreshed.

There were a total of ten experts, and five pairs surrounded them, all with bright eyes.

Wenwan is very common, and more precious cultural relics such as museum collections and first-class cultural relics are also common, but the funerary objects of the royal family are really rare.

Bronze ware is even rarer.

What's even more rare is that there are even related documents of inheritance?
To put it another way: as long as it is not from before the Han Dynasty, this thing can be bought or sold.

"Everyone, don't squeeze...Why is it so heavy? Who will help and lift it to the booth..."

As soon as Chen Shucai reminded, the experts realized that there were still leaders on the scene.

Everyone got out of the way, Gao Shengdong and a young teacher ran over, and the two of them worked together to lift the box onto the booth.

Then, everyone can see clearly: there is a lot of green rust, at first glance, it is a gilt and chiseled copper box.

On the lid is a lotus flower, on the front of the box is a picture of Sakyamuni's Nirvana, on the back is a Taoist fairy figure holding Ruyi, with a star map above his head and auspicious clouds under his feet.

On the left is a crouching lion, on the right is a golden armored general, and there are deformed cicada patterns and cloud and thunder patterns all around.

After just a few glances, the experts took a different look: "The front is indeed Buddha's Nirvana, and the star map on the back is spoon-shaped, it should be Dousu (Nandou)..."

"The "Sou Shen Ji" in the Jin Dynasty and the "Hun Tian Tian" in the early Tang Dynasty all recorded very clearly: the master of the South Dipper is born, and the master of the Big Dipper dies... This is the Lord of the South Dipper..."

Just after saying a few words, the experts were startled again: Ordinary people dare to engrave these two on tomb objects?
So Professor Chen is right, as long as this thing is real, it will be a proper royal burial item...

"The lotus on the top is the lotus of the world!"

"Both ends are patron saints: the lion is easy to understand. The golden armored general on the opposite side is holding a sword. It should be Marshal Ma, the patron saint of early Taoism... So, this thing is from before Ming Dynasty."

"It must be... Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Wang Lingguan to be the head of the four marshals. If it was the Ming Dynasty, he would have a whip in his hand. And Marshal Ma was conferred by Shi Chonggui, the late Jin emperor of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, so this thing is from the Song and Yuan Dynasties. The royal family of the Yuan Dynasty They are Mongolians, so there are only two Songs left..."

"Needless to say the cicada pattern, it has the meaning of 'biochemical', plus Buddha's Nirvana, Nandou Xingjun, reincarnated lotus... Hey, is this a coffin?"

"Good guy... So far, how many royal coffins have been preserved so well?"

"No more than ten pieces, less metal, no more than five pieces."

"It's so small, the owner is definitely not more than three years old... So, this should be the outer coffin of the prince who died when he was young... If it is a coffin, the lid should be high at the front and low at the back, not arched..."

Hearing this, Li Ding'an couldn't stop admiring: It's only been a few minutes?

Professional is indeed professional...

But then, he pricked his ears again: "During the Song Dynasty, Taoism was the state religion. If this is the prince's coffin, how could the Buddha's Nirvana appear?"

"Not necessarily. If you want to talk about the state religion, there are only two dynasties of Zhenzong and Huizong. At other times, there are three religions in parallel... But the pattern on this is really strange: there are both Buddhist 'reincarnation' and Taoist 'immortality'. Annihilation', strictly speaking, these two theologies are contradictory..."

"It means... that it was fabricated by later generations?"

"It's possible, but even if it's a fake, the age is not short... You can tell by the fineness of the patina. It's definitely a natural formation, not old-fashioned in the later stage..."

While listening carefully, an expert suddenly asked, "Li Ding'an, is this real or fabricated?"

"what?"

Isn't this a knowing question?
You ask all over the world, which collectibles will say that their things are fake?
He nodded solemnly: "Mr. Xie, of course it is true."

"What period?"

"Ningzong of the Southern Song Dynasty!"

Ok?
He looked at Li Ding'an in surprise: "What did the owner say?"

"No...he just has a half-knowledge."

"Then you got the lab test?"

Li Ding'an smiled: "I just came back last night, so I haven't had time yet?"

Is this weird?

The expert surnamed Xie looked at several documents on the table.

That's right... the deed says "gilt copper box", but the list is just a copper box, including the transaction contract signed yesterday, which only says gilt copper box, which shows that Li Ding'an is not lying, this person is probably The seller of Xu's descendants does not know the specific origin of this thing.

On the other hand, if it is clear, who would sell such a thing?
Even if it was sold, Li Ding'an probably couldn't afford it...

So, how did Li Ding'an specify the time to Song Ningzong's period, and dare to be so sure?
He looked at the other specialists again.

There are still six people around the booth, watching seriously: Chen Shucai, Xiang Zhiqing, Dean Ding, Wu Xiang, and another expert who specializes in bronze ritual vessels.Ma Xianming helped them with a magnifying glass and a flashlight.

The other five all stared at Li Ding'an with surprised expressions.

The meaning is very clear: If it were them, they would definitely not dare to speak so full of words.

So, Li Ding'an's self-confidence...is not ordinary enough.

Dean Xiao gave him winks, meaning to make him humble, but Li Dingjian didn't see it.

Now be humble, what are you kidding?
If it was another occasion, or if there were no imitations, and this was the only one in the world, he would definitely lower his posture and ask for advice humbly.But this will be a leader and an expert at the same time. If he is humble, what if he is taken seriously?
In case, even Chen Shucai and the expert in bronze wares are not sure, as long as the word gets out, let alone 2000 million, even [-] is too much.

Therefore, one is one, and two is two. Even if the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu come, it won’t work...

The leader also became interested: "Why are you so sure?"

Li Ding'an hurriedly smiled: "Secretary, after I came back last night, I checked the information overnight!"

Checked now, and it took only one night?

The leader is even more curious.

Of the dozen or so people present, apart from Dean Xiao, who is not a top scholar in the field of cultural and museum research, and who is not a top-ranked scholar receiving special allowances from the State Council?
It can be said that all of them are living dictionaries.

It doesn't make sense that Li Ding'an only spent one night looking up the information he could find out, but they don't know?

You can tell by the expression, this will make Li Dingan's expression even weirder and more suspicious...

Li Ding'an explained again: "It's not official history, but a few handwritten history books, so it's not very easy to check..."

It's not easy to check. You still check so fast?
Professor Xie was curious and funny at the same time, and was about to ask, but Wu Xiang straightened up, took the towel handed over by Gao Shengdong, and wiped his hands unhurriedly: "I just remember, "The Wild Words of Qi Dong" and "Salty It is mentioned in Chun Mi Lu, which one is there?"

Several experts were shocked: It means that there are really relevant records in the history books?

But Li Ding'an was a little speechless.

Professor Wu is not only teaching porcelain archaeology, but also "Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing archaeology". Li Ding'an also thought that if he wants to find relevant evidence, it must be easier to ask Professor Wu for advice.

But he came back too late yesterday, so he didn't feel like disturbing him, so he invited Fang Zhijie and Shu Jinghao to stay up all night with him.

Before he came to school, those two went to work at the National Expo with dark circles under their eyes.

But who knew it was so easy?

It is estimated that when he talked about Ningzong in the Southern Song Dynasty, Wu Xiang thought of it...

Secretly scolding himself why he didn't feel at ease to call boldly, Li Ding'an said again: "Mr. Unearthed from generation to generation..."

Wu Xiang thought for a while, his eyes lit up: "It really is..."

Other experts looked back: Not only is there a record, but it is so detailed?
Professor Wu knows so much, it's normal, but the question is, what about Li Ding'an?
This is too profound...
