The Book of Appreciation

Meng Yao took the hand of the green snake and ran to the side of the tower crane in a few steps. She first stretched her head to look down, and then looked at the top of her head strangely. .Although it is underground, because the surrounding area of ​​the tower crane is empty, there is still very good light in the deep pit. At least she can see every move of Wu Di clearly. This guy is holding a piece of steel bar on the wall of the cave. Digging randomly, although the movement was clumsy, but it was obviously not injured.

It doesn't matter if it falls.Meng Yao squatted down speechlessly, and looked at the place full of rubbish at the bottom of the pit a little funny. I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen such stupid ones. Digging around inside, isn't it tiring?

"I'm stupid? I think you are stupid! What kind of place is this? This is Huaxia! All archaeological discoveries belong to the state! How about I take advantage of this moment to secretly dig two pieces and hide them until Dean Han comes?" , I don’t think I can get one piece! But, you can call them now, I’ve already got two pieces.”

Wu Di shook the tiles in his hand at Meng Yao on the top of the pit, smiling brightly.

Meng Yao glanced at the military adviser who climbed the tower crane to the bottom of the pit, curled her lips, and shouted:

"I won't go, you can call directly, I will watch you here."

Telephone?Wu Di took out the phone with distress. When he fell on the tower crane just now, he didn't control the strength well, and the screen was broken. This is the trouble with the big screen.Besides, even if it wasn't broken, there's no signal in this damn place!

He handed the three pieces of porcelain in his hand to the military division,

"You go up first, give this piece to Xiao Qingzang, and then take these two pieces and call Dean Han and the others over. I'll wait here."

"Fifth Brother..."

"Go ahead, let me see again, you have no experience, and you can't help here."

The military master glanced at the cave wall speechlessly, and nodded helplessly, yes, it's the same, if he is asked to dig such a large place, let alone dig out the tiles, where to start is a problem.

Wu Di had already looked around. On his left hand side, where he had just dug a few tiles, if he dug down horizontally, no more than one meter, he would find a relatively large pile of tiles.He didn't know if those experienced archaeologists could see something from the soil layer. Anyway, since he had already intervened, he decided to just dig it out. One or two pieces can't explain the problem, and a pile is enough for the Hanyuan I made up my mind.

The military adviser went up and handed the tiles to Green Snake, and then asked Daniel to call Dean Han, while he returned to the bottom of the pit and said:

"Fifth brother, take a break, let me come."

The deeper the hole is, the more difficult it is to dig, and the underground soil layer is relatively dense, so when Dean Han and his group arrived, the military division only dug in about [-] centimeters.

"Xiao Wu, stop digging around, let us go down and have a look, maybe we can find some clues!"

The strategist stopped, glanced at his results, and said dissatisfiedly:

"If there is a marching shovel, it is estimated that this society can dig a cat's ear hole."

Wu Di laughed twice and said:

"Let's go, go up, and make room for them by the way."

A middle-aged man came down first. He carefully looked at the wall of the cave that Wu Di and the others had been digging just now, then got some soil from several places, put it on a piece of white paper, and illuminated it with a flashlight. Carefully compare.On the top of the pit, Wu Di, who had just climbed up, was surrounded by several old men.Dean Han shook the porcelain in his hand and asked excitedly:

"What's going on, Xiao Wu, why did you think of going down there? You actually found this by such a coincidence!"

Wu Di glanced at Daniu, and Daniel shrugged helplessly. As I said before, they still want to ask... Then fifth brother, you can reluctantly say it again, although this matter is a bit embarrassing...

Wu Di reluctantly told the story of hushing off the phone again, and He Guangyu took the tile from Dean Han with a serious expression, handed it to Wu Di, and asked:

"Xiao Wu, which piece did you pick up at the bottom of the pit? How do you know that you can dig in that direction?"

Wu Di chuckled, these people are really not easy to fool, but fortunately he has already thought about it.

"When I went down to pick up my mobile phone, a large piece just protruded from the wall of the cave over there. When I helped it to the ground, I pressed it down with a little more force, and then I saw the phone hidden inside. Then I started digging, and after a while, I found another piece, so..."

Several old people glanced at each other, Dean Han said with a smile:

"Da Niu didn't make it clear. These two pieces of porcelain were unearthed not long ago. How could they be picked up at the bottom of the pit? Xiao Wu, you are so lucky...if you can really find the kiln this time Address, I will definitely give you a great credit!"

Wu Di's eyes lit up,

"How many tiles are rewarded?"

"Don't think about it! These are all state things, we don't have the right to do so, but the certificate can give you a copy. As for the bonus, anyway, you are a rich man, so you don't think much of that money."

Wu Di rolled his eyes, fortunately, he had foreseen this kind of result long ago, and secretly hid a piece of it that was not bad...

"Xiao Lu, how are you doing? Did you find anything?"

"The soil here is indeed different, but the specific situation needs to be further tested by instruments. It seems that they have chosen the right direction. You can try digging again."

Dean Han discussed with He Guangyu softly, and called the two young men,

"Go down and replace Professor Lu, bring your video camera, marching shovel, and dig hard for me! Keep digging until you see something!"

After explaining, he gently tugged Wu Di, pulled him aside,

"Xiao Wu, can you arrange for someone to bring over the plum vase that is suspected to be from a firewood kiln at your house, and let us study it?"

Wu Di showed embarrassment,

"Grandpa, the site conditions... It's not that I don't trust you, but you also know that it's a whole thing, and there are many people with mixed skills..."

"I knew you boy didn't want it, so how about it, when I return to Beijing in two days, you can lend me the plum vase for comparison, and I promise not to take it to the construction site, how about it?"

"Okay, this is you, old man. I won't let them see it for anyone else!"

Dean Han smiled and patted him on the shoulder,

"You boy, let me be sloppy with me. If this is really the kiln site of the firewood kiln, wouldn't your item be justified? You are still pretending to me, and you are proud of yourself at the moment, aren't you?"

Those two young men were no better than military advisers. They dug carefully and stopped to rub the soil from time to time. Therefore, everyone waited for almost an hour before they dug up the remaining [-] centimeters.

"Professor, I found it, I found it, there are at least dozens of tiles here, no, hundreds of tiles!"

Suddenly there was a loud cry from the deep pit. I don't know if it was because of excitement or because it was in the big pit. Anyway, the sound sounded like a slaughtered pig, and it was very ear-piercing.

"What? Hundreds of pieces?"

He Guangyu was trembling with excitement, he quickly took a few steps forward, if it wasn't for the military master's quick-sighted hand, he would have dared to jump straight down!

"Dig slowly, please slow down! Forget it, you guys stop for a while, wait until we go down and have a look."

Regardless of everyone's dissuasion, several old gentlemen insisted on going down to have a look. Also, how could they be missing at this historical moment?Standing behind the crowd, Wu Di smiled and shook his head. From now on, he should have nothing to do. He is going to take Meng Yao into the city to eat the big carp of the Yellow River later, and then stop by Zhongzhou Antique City tomorrow. There, it once won No.2 in the ranking of the top ten antique markets in the country!

Zhongzhou is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, with convenient transportation. A few years ago, a documentary called "Business War" made it appear in everyone's sight as a famous commercial city.However, in recent years, due to various reasons, the development has lagged behind and gradually faded out of people's sight.However, the scale and number of antique cities here rank among the top in the country.

There are only five large antique cities in Zhongzhou, located in the South City and North City respectively. Back then, due to the dispute between merchants, there was a North-South War.In recent years, because of its convenient transportation conditions and the improvement of people's living standards, there has been a nationwide collection boom, and the business has become more and more popular day by day.

Wu Di's first stop was Zhongzhou Antique City with the oldest qualifications. It is said that there are nearly [-] merchants here. With a few nice things.

It was the first time for Meng Yao to visit the antique market with Wu Di, so she seemed a little excited.She held Wu Di's arm and looked around, asking some weird questions from time to time, which made Wu Di, a master figure, feel a little headache.

"Adi, look, that pony carriage is so beautiful, let's go over and ask the price."

Wu Di was dragged into a miscellaneous shop by Meng Yao. He didn't need Meng Yao's guidance. He had already seen the carriage she mentioned, and he leaned over to take a closer look. He raised his eyebrows.

The carriage Meng Yao mentioned was a bone carving handicraft. It was not big, but it was very beautiful. It was placed in a very conspicuous position by the boss, and it was equipped with special spotlights.

The knife work of this carriage ornament is very good. The whole composition is centered on a carriage with complicated decorations. Not only are there two horses in front, but also guards on horseback and on foot. Behind the carriage, there are also two riders with sabers.Including the driver and passengers on the carriage, there are a total of nine characters, each of which is different in shape, but they are all very realistic.

This bone carving comes with an integrated base, and the base is carved into the shape of an arch bridge, which is also very delicate.Judging from the shape of the carriage and the costumes of the characters, it should show the scene of the princes and nobles traveling in the Han Dynasty.

The material of the bone carving should be bovine bone, but I don't know whether it is because of the age or special treatment, the whole has a beige luster that only ivory has.

"Adi, what is this made of? It looks very valuable."

Meng Yao looked at it for a long time, then asked in a low voice.

"Miss, you are really discerning. This is an ivory carving from the early Qing Dynasty. It is absolutely priceless!"
